Chapter 186 | Sequence: Sacrifice

Evening.

Gold Medal Pest Control Company.

Yin Yang looked at Canned Food, who was lying on the sofa letting out a satisfied burp, and asked, "What’s this all about?"

"Meow~"

"You’re stuffed?"

"Meow~"

"You recruited over a hundred new subordinates, and they all brought you tributes? You felt it would be rude to refuse?"

"Meow~"

Yin Yang put on an apron and walked to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

"Not bad, not bad. I knew starting a pest control company was the right move."

"Next time there’s an order, just let your subordinates handle the catching."

"We won’t let them work for free; one can of cat food for every cat."

"Meow~"

Canned Food waved its paw, too bloated to even get up.

"Hey, don’t say that. Even my own cat shouldn’t be working for nothing."

Yin Yang declined Canned Food’s polite offer and picked up a knife to start chopping vegetables.

His technique was incredibly skilled. Wisps of black mist rose behind him as three ghosts appeared.

Now that Yin Yang had reclaimed his lung, his innate transcendent power had grown significantly stronger. It was time to awaken the fourth ghost.

"There were five people who split my organs back then."

"The old man from the Qi family took my Gall."

"The young man from the Li family took my lung."

"There was also a woman who took my liver!"

"The fourth person was a duck-voiced man; he took my kidney!"

"The last person had no aura at all. He took my heart along with my other remaining organs."

Yin Yang placed the chopped vegetables onto a plate.

"I’ve sensed the memories of the Li and Qi family members. They didn’t know much about that person, only that he was someone with a very powerful background."

"If that duck-voiced man hadn’t also held some status, and if they hadn't been in Meng City, they probably wouldn’t have gotten a single organ."

Yin Yang took out seasonings to marinate the ingredients.

"The two organs with the strongest auras have been found. We’ll find the rest too, right?"

The three ghosts behind him nodded in unison, their expressions solemn.

A power within the unseen would naturally bring them back together.

...

"Don’t worry, I’ll definitely recommend your shop to my friends."

"Of all the pest control companies out there, yours is the only one that’s purely green and eco-friendly!"

An auntie gave Yin Yang several thumbs-ups, glancing at the Meow-Meow Task Force behind him as she spoke.

Yin Yang smiled and accepted the payment.

"That would be wonderful. From now on, any customer you refer will get a ten percent discount, and you’ll receive a ten percent commission on the fee."

"Oh my, how could I? We people of Mangliang City aren't hurting for that kind of money."

The auntie said this, but her eyes clearly brightened quite a bit.

Yin Yang adjusted his cat carrier and laughed.

"Look at you. One glance and I can tell your family is well-off, so of course you don’t lack money. It’s just that you’re looking out for me by referring customers, so I have to show my appreciation."

"Otherwise, it’ll look like I don’t know how the world works. Just consider it a way to put my mind at ease."

Hearing this, the auntie’s smile grew even wider.

"You’re clearly a capable young man. Do you have a girlfriend? If not, your auntie can introduce you to one."

Yin Yang laughed and waved his hand.

"I don’t have any plans for that at the moment. Bye, Auntie."

"Alright, alright."

The auntie walked Yin Yang out, adding, "But I still have to nag you a bit. If you meet a good girl, you’ve got to make your move when the time is right."

"Otherwise, if you hesitate, her kids will be old enough to run errands by the time you try to pursue her."

Yin Yang nodded with a smile. After saying goodbye, he rode away on a shared bike.

Ever since the successful rat extermination at the warehouse, Yin Yang’s pest control company had become very busy.

This was all thanks to the security guard uncle’s promotional efforts.

After he went home from work that day, he started bragging to all his old neighbors, saying he had seen a true master!

In his description, Yin Yang was practically a Cat God descended to earth. With just one cat, it hadn't even taken half an hour to catch all the rats in a thirty-thousand-square-meter warehouse!

The floor had been covered in rat carcasses!

The old neighbors naturally didn't believe him, thinking the guard was just blowing smoke. After all, they had been neighbors for years; they knew who was who.

But the guard had anticipated this and had taken photos beforehand.

When they saw the dense carpet of rat corpses, the neighbors finally believed him.

Then, when the guard went back to work the next day, those neighbors started spreading the word further.

In their version, Yin Yang wasn't just one person with one cat, but one person leading hundreds of cats.

His opponents weren't just ordinary warehouse rats either, but massive, nearly demonic rats weighing dozens of pounds!

What was a simple pest control job sounded more like a battle between a transcendent and rat spirits by the time it left their mouths.

However, from a certain perspective, they weren't entirely wrong.

And so, Yin Yang became popular, receiving two or three pest control orders every day.

"I didn't expect business to be this good. I barely have time for proselytizing."

"Meow~"

Canned Food’s head popped out of the carrier as it let out a long yawn.

"How’s your potion digestion coming along?"

"Meow~"

Canned Food showed a hint of pride.

It was remarkable how human-like a cat’s expression could be.

"Whoa, you’re making fast progress. You’re almost ready to break through to Sequence 7, aren't you?"

"Meow~"

"Impressive, impressive."

"Meow~"

"You’re not coming back tonight? What are you doing?"

"Meow~"

"Oh, okay."

Yin Yang agreed. Over the past two days, Canned Food had recruited seven or eight hundred cat subordinates, completely dominating every trash can in the West District.

Tonight, it was going to lead its subordinates to invade the South District and conquer the trash cans there as well!

From this perspective, Yin Yang’s life was nowhere near as exciting as Canned Food’s.

Yin Yang rode his bike back to the pest control company and saw someone standing by his door from a distance.

"Hmm?"

After parking the bike in the designated spot, Yin Yang walked over.

"Hello, can I help you with something?"

The man turned around and looked Yin Yang over.

"Are you an employee here?"

"Yes."

"I need pest control services. I heard your company is professional."

Yin Yang nodded with a smile, though he found the man a bit odd.

There was a contact number on the door, yet this man had just stood there waiting. In today’s fast-paced society, that was quite rare.

"I heard you use cats to catch rats?"

"That’s right. It’s safe and non-toxic."

"How do you charge?"

"Based on the area and the time required."

"What’s the shortest amount of time it would take to catch the rats?"

"That depends on the location and the number of rats."

The man checked his watch. Yin Yang took a glance as well.

He didn't recognize the brand, but the watch was made of gold.

"East District, Number 771. Two thousand one hundred square meters, three floors. Complete the extermination before seven-thirty tonight. What’s the price?"
