“???”
Lin Jie glanced at the fat, furry white creature sitting on the table with a dumbfounded expression.
The two pointy ears, the long tail that wagged back and forth, and the curious manner in which it circled around.
It was definitely a cat.
He looked at the cracked gargoyle and the eggshell fragments on the table.
Finally, he came to a seemingly ridiculous conclusion — the cat had hatched from the "insect egg."
No, since a cat had hatched, it couldn't be called an "insect egg." Cat egg?
The corner of Lin Jie's mouth twitched. This was something that went against the common sense of biology. If Darwin were to know about this, he would probably jump out of his coffin.
But this was another world, so Darwin couldn't care less.
He could only lie back down.
Lin Jie could roughly analyze what had happened while he was away — the egg and the gargoyle had an accidental collision, and both sides were injured. The gargoyle cracked, and the eggshell broke. After the cat came out of the egg, it became the situation in front of him. Remember: http://m.9biquge.com
Speaking of which, was the egg that hard?
But since cats could lay eggs, it wasn't surprising that the eggshell was hard.
Lin Jie felt that his previous guess was right. The Dome Church really worshipped a mythical creature.
He thought as he slowly approached the counter.
The larva, which had just finished its transformation, shook its tail. When it turned its head, it suddenly saw Lin Jie's smiling face, and its whole body instantly froze.
Lin Jie reached out and pinched the back of the white cat's neck with a precise and skillful technique. He lifted it up and looked it up and down. He touched his chin and said with a little doubt, "This cat is a little strange. Is it disabled? Its eyes are yellow and there are no pupils … "
The larva waved its claws and struggled to no avail. "..."
Lin Jie reached out his hand and gently pressed down on the white cat's eye sockets. He muttered to himself, "Shouldn't we go to the hospital for a check-up? But this is not a normal cat. Can a pet hospital do it?"
The larva felt a faint force coming from its skull. It shook in horror and quickly formed a round pupil from its eyes, indicating that it didn't have one, but it was relatively small.
Lin Jie said, "Oh, so it shrank too small to see clearly … But why are the ears so strange? Where are the earholes?"
The larva noticed that Lin Jie's fingers were pinching its two "horns," so it quickly did the same.
Lin Jie suddenly realized, "The fur is too long."
He touched the back of the "white cat." He felt that the smooth and oily fur was extraordinarily good to the touch. Then he lifted it up and said with a smile, "Meow?"
The chubby larva kicked its hind legs twice in the air, and then meowed with a blank expression.
"Meow ~ Good."
Lin Jie put the cat down, scratched its furry chin and said, "From now on, you will be called Little White. You will live in the bookstore. I will make a cat bed for you later."
When the white cat heard this, it froze in place and looked up at Lin Jie.
Lin Jie looked at it with a smile and said, "If you don't listen, this gargoyle was given to me by a good customer. Now that you broke it, I'm actually very angry. Do you understand?"
"Of course, I definitely won't have the heart to boil a cute kitten."
Boss Lin kindly touched the head of the cat that he had just named Little White.
"Unless you really want to eat it."
Little White shivered and straightened its tail. Its eyes saw the ring on Lin Jie's ring finger. It meowed softly and lowered its head, looking very obedient.
Lin Jie stroked the new kitten for a while and turned his head to look at the mess on the counter. He had a headache.
It was fine to clean up the eggshell, but the gargoyle was troublesome.
It would be very difficult to repair this kind of handicraft, and if he let others repair it, there would always be some unsatisfactory parts.
It was better to wait for Old Wang to visit him and let him repair it himself.
"Sigh, I feel a little sorry for Old Wang."
Lin Jie couldn't help but feel guilty. This gargoyle had only been given to him for a few months, and it had already cracked.
He picked up Little White and patted it, "Act cute well. Mm, you can also help look after the house. Otherwise, you'll be useless."
"Meow ~"
Little White trembled and made a familiar meow.
Lin Jie put it on the ground with satisfaction and turned to the basement to look for materials to make a cat bed.

Yue Sefu first went to the Dome Church to coordinate the work of the Intelligence Department. After dealing with the follow-up work, he returned to the Miyie Tower headquarters and received a new piece of information.
"The Director of Pharmacy of the Truth Society, Margaret, was attacked by an unknown Extraordinaire?"
Yue Sefu frowned, "I remember that she's from the Sandra family. This Miyie family is not to be trifled with, and they have always kept a low profile. They shouldn't have any enemies."
Ke Laode, whose body couldn't hide the dark circles under his eyes even though he was an Extraordinaire, nodded while holding the document in his hand. He forced himself to focus and said, "Yes, but according to the ether traces at the scene, the attacker used the forbidden spell 'Gate of Blood'. It's very likely that they're from the Blood Feast. The person who sold this spell scroll has just been caught by us."
Yue Sefu narrowed his eyes, "Tsikaku?"
'Blood Curse Wizard' Tsikaku, a destructive wizard, one of the founders of the Blood Feast, one of the supporters of the Road of Fire Sword, and the owner of Congreve's Book of Life. He had just fallen into the trap of the bookstore owner and was turned into a fool by an unknown creature summoned by Yue Sefu.
His signature spells were forbidden spells that used blood as a medium.
"In other words, this attack was organized and purposeful. If it happened at this time, perhaps it's just like last time. They want to take advantage of the fact that we're encircling the Dome Church to create a diversion."
Yue Sefu asked, "What's the situation now?"
Ke Laode said, "Margret's whereabouts are unknown. The Sandra family is furious, and they expressed that they don't trust the Miyie Tower and the Truth Society. They want to send people to look for her personally …"
Yue Sefu's face darkened, "Are they stupid? An organization like the Blood Feast must have some ulterior motive for attacking someone with such a strong background like Margret. It's very likely that the Road of Fire Sword instigated them again. Their target might be the Sandra family. They're walking right into our trap."
"We've already communicated with them."
Ke Laode smiled bitterly and said, "But you know that this ancient Covenanter family is very stubborn. They still believe in the Wapu family even now. It's almost impossible to change their mind."
Yue Sefu took a deep breath and continued to ask, "What about Tsikaku? Is there any way to pry open his mouth? "
Claude nodded and said, "We've tried using the Sobriety Potion and some other methods, but we can only barely keep him in a half-rational, half-crazy state. We've asked everything we can, but it's only superficial information. Moreover, it's too much of a burden on his body. He can't take it anymore."
At this moment, a subordinate rushed in and reported, "Tsikaku committed suicide!"
"A few minutes before he died, he regained consciousness and said that he'll definitely return from hell for revenge. He seems to have set up a resurrection spell on his Human Skin Book!"

Lin Jie's sawing motion paused. He felt as if another dream creature had intruded into his solidified dream.
