Tom Cat breaks through the dimensional wall

Chapter 140: Cats are the gentleness of this world

"What exactly is a Meow Star? Well... I didn't expect you to ask this question."

The orange cat Yang Lao was stunned for a moment, stared at Tang Mu carefully for a while, and asked tentatively: "Do you really know nothing? Some things, the moment you become a Meow Star, you should know them naturally."

Tang Mu shook his head. He really didn't know these things.

He didn't even understand whether he was a Meow Star or not.

Because he felt that although he had similarities with other Meow Star people, there were more differences.

But it would be a bit wrong to say that he was not a Meow Star.

After all, his Meow Star account and the address of Meow City were given to him by the system.

His body as a Tom cat was more or less related to Meow Star.

"Forget it, there is still a lot of time anyway, let's go to the teahouse over there to eat and chat, you treat us."

The orange cat Yang Lao put his hands behind his back and walked towards the quaint teahouse on the side.

Seeing this, Tang Mu hurried to follow.

The money-grubber didn't forget to complain: "Why do you want me to treat you?"

The orange cat Old Man Yang didn't reply: "You young man don't have martial ethics. Not only did you sneak attack me, an old man, but you also want to hit my balls at my age. You should apologize?"

"Uh..."

Tang Mu was speechless. It seemed that what Old Man Yang said was okay.

Okay, treat me. Anyway, I have made a lot of money from the system boss. It's okay to treat the old man to afternoon tea.

Following the orange cat Old Man Yang into the teahouse.

Although the appearance of this teahouse looks very ancient, the decoration inside is a bit like McDonald's and KFC, but it is still in the ancient Chinese style.

"Let's go this way, let's go upstairs to talk."

Old Man Yang was obviously a regular customer here, and he took Tang Mu directly to the second floor.

The two cats found a seat by the window and sat down. Old Man Yang took the tablet next to the table, ordered a few side dishes on it, and ordered a bottle of white wine that he had never heard of, and then stopped ordering.

"What do you want to eat?"

Tang Mu pulled the tablet over to take a look and found that there were quite a few things for sale here.

It's just that this meal is for his own treat, so he should just eat whatever he wants.

If it's for Old Yang, he can eat as much as he wants.

Thinking of this, Tang Mu ordered a bottle of wheat juice and a dozen skewers of barbecue.

The main purpose now is not to eat, just eat whatever he wants.

After ordering the meal and waiting for the meal to be served, Tang Mu looked at Old Yang with burning eyes, and the meaning was very clear, asking him to continue the previous topic.

Seeing this, Old Yang shook his head and said in a condescending manner: "You are a young man, if you have any questions, just ask me directly, but you have to do the previous operations, which is just a waste of time."

Old Yang was obviously still a little upset about Tang Mu's previous operations.

Seeing this, Tang Mu smiled flatteringly: "Isn't this a treat to make amends?"

Old Yang shook his head and sighed again, saying: "Forget it, I thought you knew all this. I didn't introduce it to you when you first came to Meow City. Now just treat it as completing the work I didn't finish before."

"You asked me what Meow Star people are. I don't know what others think, but if I were to say, this should be a natural phenomenon."

"Natural phenomenon?"

This statement is quite strange. Tang Mu didn't expect Old Yang to say this.

"Well, a natural phenomenon. It's not aliens, nor is it some other intelligent life hidden on the earth. If we don't call it Meow Star people, it's more appropriate to call it ghosts."

Hearing what Old Yang said, Tang Mu's brows gradually relaxed, and his thoughts seemed to be opened up, and he figured out a lot of things at once.

No wonder Old Yang said something about obsession when he first came to Meow City.

It felt a little weird at the time.

Now I finally know what's weird.

"You mean, the cats in this Meow City were all humans before?"

This answer was something that Tang Mu had never thought of before, and when he said this, there was some uncertainty in his tone.

"Hey! Look at what you said, as if you were not a human before."

Yang Lao said it casually, but Tang Mu's heart was hit by this light-hearted sentence. The whole cat was shocked as if struck by lightning!

Yes! It was also a human before it became Tom Cat.

Then why can't the cats in this Meow City be humans?

In this case, I am indeed a cat?

It's just that unlike others who have become various ordinary cats, I have become a more outrageous Tom Cat.

"Then... why do we become cats?"

Combined with what Yang Lao said before, Tang Mu actually had a guess in his mind.

But the emotional impact of this guess is too complicated. Tang Mu doesn't know what he is feeling at this moment, let alone what he is worried about before Yang Lao gives him the answer.

But the fact is that the facts will not change because of other people's thoughts.

Therefore, it will remain the same as it should be.

"I didn't expect you didn't even know this, but it seems that you have guessed the answer."

While Yang Lao was chatting, the waiter had already brought up the drinks. The other side dishes would take some time and would be served later.

After thanking the waiter, Yang Lao opened the wine bottle and poured himself a small glass. He first ate some fried peanuts provided by the restaurant, and then took a sip of white wine.

Putting the wine glass down gently, Orange Cat Yang Lao looked at Tang Mu, and then continued: "Just as you guessed. It is our strong enough obsession after death that makes us become cats. It's just that , just having obsession is useless.”

"If it weren't for this cat city, even if we became cat people, we would be just ordinary cats in the outside world. You should also know this very well."

What Yang Lao was talking about was its state outside.

It turned into an ordinary orange cat, and it didn't even know how to resist Tom Mu's balls.

Having said this, Mr. Yang looked at Tang Mu with some doubts.

It's still weird.

Why can Tang Mu still stay awake in the outside world? This is the first time Yang Lao has seen this kind of cat.

But now that Yang Lao is older, his inquiring mind is not as strong as when he was young.

Therefore, although I had some doubts in my heart, I didn’t ask any more questions.

Thoughts about Tang Mu passed through his mind, and the orange cat Yang Lao continued.

"There is only one Meow City in the world, but the passages leading to Meow City are all over the world. As long as there are passages to Meow City nearby, cats without self-awareness will instinctively approach the passage."

"As long as you enter the channel, your memories and thoughts as a human will be restored. What you did when you were outside will also be retained as a memory."

"As I told you before, although we have become cats, our life span is as short as cats, only ten or twenty years."

"But this is just a trivial matter. After all, we are all people who have died once. The years of living as cats can be regarded as earning."

"And all humans who can become cats must have certain obsessions before death. These people generally don't care too much about life and death. Most of them are thinking about how to satisfy their obsessions."

Tang Mu sat at the table opposite Yang Lao and listened quietly.

After it had talked a lot and was drinking wine and eating peanuts, Tang Mu took the time to sigh: "It sounds a bit like ghosts and the underworld. Meows are ghosts with obsessions, and Meow City is... Let them live in the underworld."

Hearing Tang Mu's metaphor, Mr. Yang couldn't help but smile.

He nodded in agreement: "You are right to say that. We are indeed a group of ghosts wearing cat skins, wandering around the world."

"Your dishes are here too. They're all here. If you need anything else, just call us."

At this moment, the snacks ordered by Tang Mu and Yang Lao arrived.

This restaurant serves food very quickly.

Tang Mu picked up the beef skewers and ate them.

Chewing the barbecue in his mouth, he was also sorting out the information he had just received from Mr. Yang.

Based on the currently known information.

Mr. Yang was right when he said that cats are a natural phenomenon.

The first is a human being.

Either accidental death or natural death.

But because of his strong obsession, he turned into a cat after death.

At this time, the cat is just an ordinary cat.

It's just that under the influence of human subconsciousness, cats will behave differently from natural cats, which are all manifestations of obsession.

If there is a Meow City passage around.

They will be instinctively attracted to the passage, and finally enter the underworld-like Meow City.

In this special space, all cats will regain their human memories and thinking and become real cat people.

By thinking normally in Meow City, they can also make more preparations in Meow City, or make more money, thereby affecting the outside world.

That's exactly what the cat tower does.

If a cat's obsession is not to leave a house for its family, it can make money as a cat at this time, and then buy a house for family members outside through the cat tower.

Of course, every cat's obsessions are very different, and the ways they satisfy their obsessions are naturally also different.

But in any case, at this time, Tang Mu had roughly understood what the situation was like between the cats and the cat city.

Of course, this chat with Mr. Yang is not over yet.

Tom Mu still has one last question, which can also be said to be the most important question.

That violin that Tom has no memory of...

This is the key to Tang Mu finding Yang Lao.

"Mr. Yang, will humans lose their memory after they become cats?"

Tang Mu looked at Mr. Yang nervously.

Guan Suisui probably didn't lie. She wouldn't lie and joke to a cat.

Since Guan Suisui said that the violin was given to her by herself before, it should be hers.

Although Guan Suisui was not wrong, he had no impression of it at all.

Then there is only one possibility.

In the process of humans becoming cats, they will lose a piece of memory.

To put it this way, it seems that I have really lost a memory.

Think about it carefully, how did you enter the mission world "Demon Slayer" for the first time?

No impression.

Not impressed at all.

It seemed that he had appeared directly in the world of Demon Slayer.

Then start doing system tasks without any sense of disobedience.

then……

In other words, for a long time after that, Tom Mu didn't even think about similar issues.

If Guan Sui Sui hadn't mentioned the violin today, Tang Mu probably wouldn't have noticed this.

"That's right, it's true that every cat has lost part of their memory. Some cats have more, some have less, but without exception, they all have symptoms of amnesia, and I am the same. Perhaps this is the price you have to pay for forcing yourself to stay in the human world."

Old Yang was a little emotional, but he wasn't sad about it.

It had long passed the age of sentimentality.

It was very satisfied with its current life.

How many people don't have the opportunity to make up for their regrets in more than ten years?

Old Yang felt that all the cats in Meow City were lucky.

The words of the orange cat Old Yang undoubtedly proved that Tang Mu's guess was correct.

But Tang Mu would rather guess wrong.

Because this means that it not only died once, but also lost part of its memory in the process of turning into Tom Cat.

In other words, Guan Sui Sui might really be his girlfriend?

No wonder she introduced herself as Tang Mu's girlfriend in front of the residents of the community and Grandma Lan.

At that time, Tang Mu was still shocked by the girl's boldness.

They had just gone on a few dates after a blind date, but they dared to announce their relationship.

After all this time, I forgot...

Damn!

Fortunately, it turned into a cat at that time. If it had lost its memory as a human, it would have become a scumbag on the spot...

Tang Mu's thoughts have begun to fly.

In this short period of time, he received too much information.

It completely explained the strange things that he had discovered or not discovered before.

Looking at Tang Mu's silly look in front of him, Yang Lao shook his head and told him the last thing he knew.

"The length of memory lost by each cat star is not limited, but there is one thing in common. They don't remember how they died."

"Well... it's not entirely right to say that they don't remember it at all. At least they still have a general impression of how they died. They just don't remember the details, such as natural death and unnatural death."

"I died of natural causes, which is more fortunate than those who died of unnatural causes. Because I have lived a complete life, this life of a cat star is a pure gain."

Speaking of this, Yang Lao looked a little proud.

After listening to what Old Yang said, Tang Mu also thought about it carefully. It seemed that he could really remember some memories about his death.

But that memory was very vague.

It was like looking at flowers in the fog and fishing for the moon in the water. It was always not very real.

But just as Old Yang said, although he could not remember the details clearly, he could always remember the general idea.

Old Yang was lucky to die of natural causes.

The ten or twenty years of life of the cat star was pure profit.

But according to his own memory, he seemed to have died accidentally...

He died in his twenties. Even if he added the ten or twenty years of life of the cat star, he could only live to thirty or forty years.

Unnatural death is really a big loss.

Fortunately, he became Tom Cat, so his life span was not a big problem, and he could also rely on the system to turn back into a human, which was even more of a problem.

However, from that vague memory, he seemed to be killed by the system...

Hmm...

Recalling this vague memory, Tang Mu's inner thoughts were very complicated for a while.

[System boss, don't you have any comments on this? I was eating hot pot and singing, and suddenly you hit my head! Have you considered my feelings, have you considered the feelings of the hot pot? 】

Finally, after figuring out everything, Tang Mu began to blame the system.

Although being bound by the system and becoming Tom Cat is not necessarily a bad thing.

But the system of his own death does have an unshirkable responsibility.

"Buzz--"

At the same time, Tang Mu's phone began to vibrate.

Tang Mu took out his phone and found that his cat APP had a transfer notification.

[10,000 yuan transferred to your account]

Seeing this, Tang Mu raised his eyebrows.

Wow! What a surprise!

Quickly suppressing the joy in his heart, Tang Mu looked sad again.

[Boss, you want to buy a life for 10,000 yuan? It doesn't matter if I die, my girlfriend will be so sad, and I even lost my memory because of it. 】

"Buzz--"

[10,000 yuan transferred to your account]

Oh my god, I have money again, it's great!

At this moment, Tang Mu suddenly didn't want to work anymore.

It's better to work and earn money in the world than to take advantage of the system boss.

[Boss! ]

Tang Mu was ready to howl.

[Bang! ]

The system chose to close the call and rejected Tang Mu's behavior of taking advantage of others.

It's good enough to give 20,000 yuan as a consolation.

For other people, let alone asking the system to give money.

Even if they have to spend all their money to pay the system, they want the system to bind them, and they don't care if they die and turn into a cat.

If Tang Mu's behavior was seen by others, they would be called ungrateful.

But Tang Mu also has his own ideas.

The system is indeed a good thing.

But it's not that Tang Mu begged the system to bind it.

On the contrary, the system still forcibly bound Tang Mu without asking for Tang Mu's permission.

This even led to Tang Mu's death and turning into a cat.

In terms of emotion and reason, Tang Mu took the compensation as a matter of course, and even felt that it was too little.

After all, given Tom's personality, he doesn't have much desire for Tom Cat's power.

It has always been a person who is content with a small fortune.

"Okay, I've told you everything you want to know. Time is limited. Let's go back first. Remember to pay the bill."

After finishing the appetizers, Yang Lao called Tang Mu to leave.

Tang Mu scanned the code and followed him out.

As he walked, Tang Mu suddenly asked curiously: "Yang Lao, what is your obsession?"

Hearing this, Yang Lao laughed and said with a smile: "Of course it's your Grandma Lan. She is my wife. I can't bear to see her alone."

As they were talking, Tang Mu and Yang Lao had already left Meow City.

Yang Lao, who originally had the demeanor of an old man, suddenly turned back into an ordinary orange cat.

It seemed that he had completely forgotten what happened in Meow City.

But under the influence of his subconscious, the orange cat Xiao Yangyang trotted all the way to the backyard of the community.

There was his lifelong companion.

Even though his human body had decayed, the obsession of not wanting Grandma Lan to be lonely made Yang Lao turn into an orange cat and continue to accompany his lover.

Following Little Sun to the backyard of the community, I saw the happy smile on Grandma Lan's face as she bent over and picked up Little Sun on the lawn.

Tang Mu suddenly had a new answer to the question he asked Old Yang.

"What exactly are Meow Star people?"

"Perhaps, Meow Star people are the gentleness of this world..."
