Esper X Family – Chapter 153 – The Best Cat in the World!

Ye Yao was still unaware of the Countermeasures Bureau treading on thin ice.

Her main body was slacking off in the training ground, playing mobile games.

Meanwhile, her fission body entered the private room of a restaurant with her companions.

She instantly felt all eyes disappear.

“Alright, let’s bring Fang Tang out now.”

Ye Yao glanced at Mu Luo, signaling him to pull Fang Tang out of the Dark Erosion space.

There was no other choice.

Fang Tang didn’t have a reasonable excuse to appear yet.

She had to endure being a pink cockroach crawling in the shadows for now.

They would have to wait for the right opportunity to let her reappear in public.

“Finally out!”

Fang Tang emerged from the floor like a pink mouse scurrying out of a sewer.

Ye Yao suddenly found the scene highly amusing.

Although she had been in a similar situation before, seeing it from another perspective was utterly embarrassing.

“Come and sit here, Fang Tang. We’ll wait for the food to arrive, and when the waiter comes, you just need to duck under the table.”

Ye Yao seriously instructed Fang Tang, imparting her own experience to the other party.

Although they could explain the sudden appearance of an extra person in the private room as a friend arriving late, they had to be cautious.

The Countermeasures Bureau might send someone disguised as a waiter to gather information.

If they spotted Fang Tang at a glance, it would be hard to explain.

Although Ye Yao had deliberately spread the information that her fission body was her older sister, it might not necessarily deter the Countermeasures Bureau.

Who knew if Sequence 033, after being abducted by Sequence Zero, would return to the enemy camp?

No.

We need someone else to take the blame!

Ye Yao thought that the Sanctuary would be a perfect scapegoat.

First, have Mu Luo locate a Sanctuary hideout.

Then, secretly place Fang Tang in a corner.

Next, rush in, eliminate everyone, and rescue Fang Tang.

And finally, call the Countermeasures Bureau to clean up the battlefield.

Create the illusion that Sequence Zero rescued Fang Tang and took her for themselves!

At least that sounded better than abducting her from the Countermeasures Bureau.

It might be a bit like burying one’s head in the sand, but they had to go through the motions to give the Countermeasures Bureau a way out.

Otherwise, it would be a problem if they become enemies again.

Not only would this strike a blow against the despicable Sanctuary, but it would also validate Fang Tang’s presence.

Killing two birds with one stone!

No matter how the Countermeasures Bureau questioned them, they would firmly insist that it was the Sanctuary’s doing.

“Cat! Fang Tang understands. This is so fun.”

Fang Tang didn’t show any resistance at all.

Compared to the boring life in the Countermeasures Bureau’s restricted zone, this cautious and thrilling outing was much more exciting.

It felt like an extreme version of hide-and-seek.

If they were discovered, it would be game over.

“Human, you’re amazing~ You’re the best human in the world!”

Ye Yao patted Fang Tang’s head, smiling with satisfaction.

In her shoujo form, she interacted with Fang Tang like a gentle and kind older sister.

Fang Tang naturally responded with positive feedback, happily returning the compliment.

“Cat, you’re also the best cat in the world!”

“Uh… I’ll reluctantly accept that compliment.”

Ye Yao shook her head helplessly.

Fang Tang had been completely led astray now.

It’s all Xia Lian’s fault!

Ye Yao glanced to the side and at the black-haired girl who was stifling a laugh.

How outrageous!

Later, she would definitely smear a lot of wasabi on a piece of meat and shove it into her mouth!

As Sequence Zero finished lunch and left the restaurant…

The Countermeasures Bureau’s surveillance of them also ended.

It was just an ordinary daily outing.

The only difference was that Sequence 002 had officially revealed herself.

Her appearance was still one that couldn’t be spread around.

Originally, the Countermeasures Bureau wanted to observe if there was an additional pink-haired girl among them.

But after Sequence 002 revealed her true appearance, the priority of Sequence 033 dropped significantly.

The meeting at the Countermeasures Bureau’s base disbanded.

In the end, many people were assigned tasks.

Among them, the head of the intelligence department was under immense pressure.

If he couldn’t uncover traces of Sequence 002’s life, he might as well go back to his hometown and farm.

Lou Wei and Xiao Jing were tasked with subtly probing Ye Yao’s thoughts.

However, Lou Wei was destined to fail at this task.

It would be up to Xiao Jing to figure it out herself.

At that moment, Lou Wei’s eyes flickered.

Ye Yao and Luo Jianhua had left the training field.

It looked like they were heading home.

Lou Wei prepared to go ahead and provide protection.

But then, Cheng Muxue’s voice came from behind.

“Lou Wei, I’ll go see Ye Yao before heading back.”

Rеad оո ΚαtRеаⅾiոɡCαfе

“Alright, but don’t take too long. The area you’re responsible for still needs management.”

Lou Wei responded briefly before quickly leaving.

After Sequence 002 revealed her true appearance, it also posed a threat to Ye Yao’s safety.

After all, the organization Sequence 002 belonged to was the infamous Sequence Zero.

Many forces were paying attention to them.

Moreover, there was also the enemy faction, the Sanctuary.

If they discovered that the Countermeasures Bureau had a girl who resembled Sequence 002, they would quickly deduce that they were related.

Some malicious individuals might try to make contact.

The Countermeasures Bureau was currently not restricting Ye Yao’s movements.

She could come and go as she pleased.

At night, she could even go farther away to participate in those so-called magical girl activities.

As long as she wasn’t confined to one place, more people would notice her.

To prevent evil individuals from noticing Ye Yao through Sequence 002, Lou Wei had no choice but to strengthen his protective watch.

Cheng Muxue watched Lou Wei leave, her words stuck in her throat.

No one knew just how chaotic her mind was at that moment.

While everyone else was discussing Sequence 002, she was distracted by another matter.

Who was the entity that had intruded into the mind network earlier?

This hadn’t happened in her original city.

The first time it occurred was in the residential complex where Ye Yao lived.

After returning to her original city, everything had returned to normal.

In fact, it she didn’t even need to return to her original city.

Even when constructing the mind network on the way back, there was no sense of intrusion.

Everything was normal when Cheng Muxue went to the interrogation room to construct the mind network this morning.

Therefore, she felt that the previous intrusion into the mind network wasn’t an illusion.

There might really be something strange in Ye Yao’s neighborhood!

Cheng Muxue had already prepared to report this matter.

But when she was investigating the suspect Ye Yao had accused, she felt something similar again.

The common point was… Ye Yao and Luo Jianhua were both nearby.

Luo Jianhua’s background was well-known.

Only Ye Yao was a vast unknown.

At this point, Cheng Muxue was truly silent.

“Let’s take it one step at a time… Time to buy strawberries and grapes.”

After some time.

Ye Yao and Luo Jianhua returned home.

“Mom, we’re back.”

“Welcome back. Where did you go today?”

“We went to the training ground to watch Mo Qiuli exercise. I played games on the side.”

Ye Yao answered truthfully.

Xiao Jing very naturally mistook “training ground” as “sports center”, showing no change in expression.

“I see. I thought you’d join in the exercise.”

“That’s too tiring. Playing games on the side suits me better.”

Ye Yao let out a lazy voice.

Xiao Jing was already used to her child’s “unambitious” remarks.

“Go sit and rest for now. Your aunt will be coming over soon. She’ll probably leave quickly.”

“Mhm.”

Ye Yao didn’t think much of it.

If she could gain some attribute points, it would be a huge win.

If not, she would just treat it as her aunt coming over to deliver free fruit.
