Recently, the atmosphere in the imperial military was very tense. Originally there had been a deal that whoever was the first to find the person behind the unknown username 'Guyan', who had been hanging onto the second place in the leaderboards, then that regiment would get him. Except for the seventh Regiment in the Army, all the other heads had tacitly agreed that whoever was the first to find him, then this person would belong to whose division.

Because the commander of the Seventh regiment was a candidate for the throne and would often do things independently from them, thus, such private agreements, the army heads naturally did not include him.

While the Elder's trial for every candidate had always been an imperial tradition, the seventh imperial commander had always been excellent such that no one had ever thought that he might fail.

So how could they make a private pact with their future emperor? However, more than half a month later, the entire military could not find even the slightest trace of information of their target.

The only new information they had was that their target had risen up in the rankings once again and had scored nearly double the points from before, emerging at the top of the leaderboards.

The commanders of the regiments in the army finally could not sit still anymore.

Generally speaking, the normal procedure of taking part in the examination of the battleship simulator required the person to report to a specific location for registration. There would then be relevant personnels in charge of the supervision of the holographic equipment for the examination. Under such circumstances, the person's identity would be very easy to find.

There was also the possibility that the person they were trying to find truly regarded the simulator as a game. In this case, they would only need to input their nickname before starting.

This was not uncommon, but wanting to squeeze into the top of the list was an entirely different matter.

After all, in the Imperial Military Academy, those undergoing professional training were usually heading towards the path of becoming an official warship pilot. Entering the army of the Empire was their goal and of course, would undergo the formal procedures to participate in the assessment.

This was already a concept, but now, the reality in front of everyone was a slap to their faces.

"Search for information regarding the location of the device's user…?" Unprepared to receive a call from the Imperial Army and facing numerous heavyweight people that often appeared on the news, the technician was somewhat trembling, "The volume of data is too large, the process will take a little more time."

In reality, for those who did not participate in the official assessment, there was no recorded personal data. Data like location had the highest form of privacy encryption and strictly speaking, could not be shared.

However, now that all of his superiors had already put out a request, how could this subordinate still refuse?

"So what's the result now, eh? Whose division will this person belong to when we do find him?"

A red-hair officer knocked on the table. Her curly crimson hair hung behind her like flames, looking extremely eye-catching. She was also the only woman in the combat room.

In the beginning, all the military leaders in this conference room had agreed to not use any methods that went against the rules. However, right now they were truly unable to find even a single person and could only tacitly go against their agreement.

Military officials had also already released information for a search for a long time and had even increased the reward for any relevant information by three times. However in the end, after a long time their target still did not appear, as if he had no interest at all.

Somebody had raised this concern that had been in everybody's hearts. The discussion in the conference room quickly heated up while every plan that was proposed was quickly rejected. In the end, they reluctantly came to a solution–

They would let the person choose for himself.

And at this time, as the imperial Army colonel's actual 'target', Gu Yan had just withdrawn from the holographic game as he refreshed the list of records and was completely unaware of the extent of the battle he had set off in the military.

Seeing the youth take off the holographic devices, the silver tabby cat which has been quietly lying on the young man's leg started purring, intending to attract the attention of the youth.

"Don't you need to go to the military office today?"

Extremely sensitive to the Heidis's purrs, Gu Yan reached towards the direction of the sound to touch out of reflex and unsurprisingly touched the tuft of soft fur.

The planet he was currently on had officially welcomed the winter season. The daily average temperature was less than three degrees causing Gu Yan who had been living in the south in his original world to feel the hardships of life…

And it is said that his current location already had the highest temperature on the planet during the winter. For the Heidis race, this temperature change had no effect on them and naturally there was no such thing as heating.

Gu Yan was now almost wrapped up like a dumpling, but still felt cold.

I want to go back to Earth for the winter!

He can't help but stroke the big and warm fur ball that was on his legs.Originally, it had just been a casual thought, however, since the temperature had plummeted in recent days, the urge to take a trip back to his world had grown much stronger.

Hearing the youth's question, the Heidis in its feline form laying on the youth's leg narrowed his eyes and let out an affirmative 'meow'.

After the Battle of Pandora ended, it would be strange if Eli still did not know who the cause of the uproar happening back in the military was.

He had already issued a silent order on all those who had participated in the recent battle.

Towards the military's search for the person, Eli did not have any reaction at all.

Even if they do find their way here, he was sure they would not dare to take his people away.

Thinking of this, the big cat lying on the youth's lap continued to purr softly.

When the hand on his spine finally moved to carass its head, the big cat which had been laying motionlessly and quietly, looked up at the youth and gently licked his fingertips.

Feeling the temperature of his fingertips gradually rising, he stopped licking.

Even if they came, he will not give…

The pet cat form of the Heidis gently swung its tail, rubbing against the youth's wrist and finally hooking around it.

Hooking it for a while, he probably felt dissatisfied and suddenly stood up.

Just like before, he raised his front paws to press down on his hands. This time, it was to press his(GY) two hands together before he laid his belly on them.

Although he did not understand the reason, Gu Yan still allowed the big cat to press his hand under its belly.

After a moment, Gu Yan saw this big cat tilt its head upwards and started purring softly, as if expecting a reward…

Does that mean that the Heidis was trying to warm him up?

"Qiuqiu is a good boy."

As though an arrow had struck his heart, Gu Yan unconsciously softened his voice.

The Big Cat Treasure brand of hand warmers…

Moved, Gu Yan did not pull his hand away, but started rubbing the soft belly.

He did not know when it started but now, whenever he said the word "Qiuqiu", he was actually calling the Heidis in front of him.

Hearing the youth's words, the Heidis disguised as a domestic cat narrowed its eyes and started making a purring sound.

The Heidis liked hearing the youth say these words the most, especially when he used the gentle tone to coax him. If it was before, this Heidis would have already been satisfied. However, it now wanted a more substantial reward.

Hence, Gu Yan saw the big cat in his lap raise its head to look straight at him, while its tail… swung back and forth.

"Qiuqiu is a good boy."

Saying this, Gu Yan lowered his head towards the cat and gently pecked the corner of his mouth, the entire process was very natural.

Receiving a reward completely out of his expectations made the Heidis a bit stunned. At this moment, it was as if it had completely lowered its guard, seeming a little vulnerable.

Of course, it was merely a look.

On this side, the atmosphere between the two people was very comfortable. In contrast, the atmosphere in the military was extremely tense.

"This position is in Commander Eli's mansion." Repeatedly confirming that the results were correct, the most serious person in the conference room announced the conclusion. In a moment, the whole room turned silent.

So in the end, the reality was that the person they were looking for was actually hidden by their future emperor–?! But even knowing this, how could they go and rob their own future monarch?

When the other person ascended the throne, how will they continue to live?

One should know that the Imperial Emperor was powerful enough to be able to directly appoint and dismiss any regiment commander to his whims.

Even if they can't have him, they could at least take a look, right?

With that in mind, they asked Evan, this aide to convey the message the next day.

Evan originally thought his boss would not agree. However, after he conveyed the message, he unexpectedly heard his commander neither consent nor refuse.

"We'll see when we get back."

The cold voice sounded very familiar, but for a moment, from the cold and handsome face of the Heidis he could see a trace of softness flash pass. Evan almost thought he had gone blind.

Remembering that his commander had just applied for the New Year's annual leave, Evan asked, "Do you need an entourage on your trip to the Blue planet?"

These perfunctory questions still needed to be asked even though Evan did not believe that there would be anything on that planet, which was still a level four civilization, capable of harming him.

"No need." The silver-haired officer answered in a low voice. Then, seeming to think of something, he narrowed his eyes.

Yesterday he had received an unexpected reward and thus, Eli wanted to do something that would make youth happy again…

Moreover, he wanted to see what kind of planet Gu Yan had lived in before.

"This subordinate will prepare for your trip," he said.

Finishing this sentence, he waited for the silver-hair officer's nod, then quickly left the mansion.

In fact, he had not spoken of this matter with the youth. The silver-haired officer frowned, thinking of how to let the youth accept his follow-up requests.

Today's weather was colder than yesterday. Wrapping himself into a dumpling with the quilt,Gu Yan had no desire to get out of bed to do anything.

After a while, he heard footsteps approaching. Although the person had attempted to deliberately lighten his footsteps, Gu Yan could still hear the military boots treading on the floor..

The footsteps stopped beside his bed.

"Eli. "

The youth with his head under the quilt even scrimped on the questioning tone and directly called his name.

The voice from under the quilt was muffled, sounding different from usual.

Knowing that the current temperature was too cold for the youth, Eli certainly did not have the intention of lifting the quilt and dragging him out.

Actually, since the temperature had plummeted, he had taken on his original form every day and burrowed under the blanket, then drilled into the bosom of the youth to allow him to hold him for warmth.

This time, the one that came under the blanket was not a cat. Gu Yan found himself being hugged from behind.

"After coming back from this trip to the blue planet with Ah Yan…" While saying this, Eli used a low and gentle voice, "Let's not leave anymore, OK?"

This meant that the Heidis had agreed to go back to the Earth for this winter.

Hearing this sentence, Gu Yan nodded without hesitation. Although the other person said "not leave any more", he will still aim to leave once a year.

The answer probably made the Heidis very happy, Gu Yan felt that the hold on him tightened as the Heidis leaned his head closer to his neck and rubbed gently.

As an aide, Evan had always been very efficient. He was quick to prepare the ship for the trip as described. Thinking that once they got back to the earth, they might face money problems, Gu Yan touched his long useless space bag, the one the original owner had.

There was a sizable amount of cash in it, and a couple of things that looked like credit cards.

According to his own system, the moment he was thrown into this novel world, 'the rules' had already made ample changes.

For example, the most obvious one was that the physical appearance of this body was exactly the same as his original self.

The credit card password was most likely also the one that he usually used.

As the ship continued sailing, Gu Yan maintained his calm attitude as he stroked the cat. This ship had an autopilot function and the GPS location of their destination had already been imported in. Their ship was currently unmanned.

But when he finally crossed the Stargate and saw the familiar Blue planet, Gu Yan's heart rate unconsciously sped up.

Landing on this planet, Gu Yan was holding on to what could be called the original destroyer of this world as he strolled down the street. Then thinking of his original cannon fodder role according to the plot…

Gu Yan now has a particularly mysterious feeling.

If the plot did not progress according to the storyline, it was hard to say whether or not this planet might become a high-level civilisation in the future too.

Without thinking, they had already landed within the perimeters of his country. Feeling the drastically warmer temperature, gu yan let out a breath.

At this time, the streets were filled with people, extremely lively and even a little crowded. The Heidis in its domestic cat form in Gu Yan's hands had been quiet and did not move. Occasionally, its light-coloured vertical pupils would sweep a glance at the crowd before it and quickly withdraw his line of sight.

Clearly all these people smelt like food, yet they seem to hold no attraction to the Heidis.

At this time, the big cat tilted its head to look into the eyes of the youth holding it in his slender and good-looking fingers. the more he stared, the more his eyes narrowed.

After a moment, the big cat began to lick his fingertips from the nearest index finger until the youth removed his finger. Only then, it began purring..

It was completely different. Only the scent of this youth would let it feel such an uncontrollable attraction to completely possess him, and…

Voluntarily be tamed.

In consideration that the human form of the Heidis in his arms was extremely eye-catching in all aspects, whether it was its appearance or the colour of its hair and eyes. Not to mention the pair of vertical pupils…

Unwilling to make any changes such as dyeing the silver hair in order to let the Heidis blend in, Gu Yan let him take on his ordinary domestic cat appearance. Moreover, he was also eager to hold the cat.

In this future world, the difference between the Earth and his original world was not too big, at least in this most familiar country, Gu Yan could see that the surrounding buildings were the same similar Chinese style buildings, giving him a sense of familiarity.

Some places of interest were also well preserved. It was true that technology in this era had progressed a lot.

After browsing through the latest news of this planet on the internet briefly, Gu Yan put back the notebook he had just taken out from his space.

Back on Earth, the machine had automatically received network signals, the world's most common type. "Shall we go into the shop?"

Holding the Heidis around this shopping mall for a while, Gu Yan caught a glimpse of a shop name from the corner of his eyes. suddenly do not want to move legs. "Meow?"

Letting out a rare sound of confusion, the Heidis, disguised as a domestic cat, followed the youth's line of sight–

It was a different language. The Heidis was unable to identify the words, but could only see a shape behind those unfamiliar fonts, and it actually looked…

Similar to his current form.

However, after asking his question, the big cat in his arms soon gave a low meow in agreement.

Since it is what the youth wanted, it will not refuse.

So a cat café in Z city's busiest commercial street, welcomed a guest with a cat today.

It looks similar to a pure American short cat. The silver tabby hair colour looks very beautiful, but this was probably due to its owner's meticulous care.

Taking the menu from the clerk, it was still the same traditional way of ordering. Gu Yan quickly ordered a cup of cappuccino and a chocolate muffin.

After the store's clerk had left, Gu Yan then gave a low cough, but the corners of his mouth can't help but curve slightly. With a small smile on his face, he whispered a few praises, "Qiuqiu is good."

All of a sudden he saw many, at least more than 20 creatures that looked very much like him and the Heidis on his legs could not react in time.

The original form of those of the Heidis race was different. Even if the Heidis on his lap wanted to, it was not easy to find those of the same form as him.

Moreover, in the first place, it was in the racial nature that Heidis did not like to expose their original form.

In the eyes of all the other guests in this café, the good-looking dark-haired youth sitting outdoors, near the railing position had bowed his head to say something to the cat in his lap. Afterwards, the tail of the cat in his lap changed from a lightly swinging motion to a more eager one.

Looks like it was satisfied. Wasn't it too easy to coax?

All those people with cats in their family silently thought.

The Silver tiger tabby cat in the young man's leg was extremely adorable, all the guests sitting in the vicinity could not help but be slightly distracted.

Then they saw the big cat raise its head to look at him and lick the young man's finger. If it was just like that, it was still alright, but afterwards…

After licking, it moved its body to rub against the youth. Those who were closer to them could even hear the cat issuing a low purring sound.

Finally, someone could not help but ask, why is it that such an obedient, easy to coax and sticky cat is always somebody else's cat-?

On this side, Gu Yan had just picked up a small knife to cut off a small chunk of muffin, ready to find some blind angle to feed the Heidis on his leg.

The main reason was that in the eyes of the natives of the Earth, there was an ordinary domestic cat lying on his leg. If he fed the Heidis in front of these people, he will be treated like an irresponsible master.

"Hello, that… May I pet your cat, please?

Gu Yan just heard this sentence when he turned around to see a young girl with an expression full of hopes and expectations.

At that moment, a tail had already hooked onto his wrist. Before the cat in his lap could do anything more, Gu Yan already replied apologetically, "Sorry, my cat is very shy."

Hearing 'my cat' these words, the Heidis let out a few low purrs from its throat and arched into the youth's bosom

Shy, but very sticky to his master…

Ah?

Those sitting nearby could hear their conversation. The more they heard, the more envious they became. In all aspects, this could be said to be their ideal cat's personality.

"Meow." A folded ear cat that was not too far from the youth and not too close either started to meow pitifully at him.

This distance was because the Heidis on the youth's legs made it dare not get too close.

At this time, a clerk was just passing by while holding a plate and saw this scene. But all their cats in the store were usually very quiet and obedient ah? He was momentarily stunned.

There was probably a daring person…

Oh no, there is a cat who was daring enough, causing the other cats in the shop to follow.

After a while, the clerk in the café looked at the cat in their shop as they fought to squeeze towards the direction of the dark-haired youth sitting near the railing. But the young man was not carrying cat food ah?

Usually, the cats would be extremely quiet, but now, unexpectedly they surrounded the youth's legs and meowed non-stop.

This was a walking human cat pipe-piper?

In the face of this situation, the shop assistants did not know whether it was time to bring back the cats into the store or turn a blind eye.

There was no helping it, the guest did not do anything to violate the rules of the café, it was their own cats that took the initiative to bother him.

Gu Yan knows that he has always been loved by animals. Just now when he came into this café and had not been instantly surrounded by cats, he thought that his animal attraction in the world had gone after.

Now it seems to still be there.

So many cats around his legs, and also purring at him. Gu Yan very much wanted to reach out to pet them, but…

When he lowered his head to look at the big cat in his lap staring silently at him, Gu Yan immediately abandoned that idea.

Putting both hands under the Heidis's paws, Gu Yan touched the soft belly. "Qiuqiu, be good."

The big cat in his lap stared at him with such an expression that if Gu Yan dared to touch other cats…

If he really did, this cat might really fly into a rage.

It was the first time seeing such a jealous cat, this was the thoughts of all the guests in the vicinity who had witnessed the whole process.

But how envious, to let their cat be jealous was such an unthinkable thing and it was also a good feeling.

Cannot tease other cats, then surely he can tease his own cat right?

Holding onto this idea, gu Yan made the final payment and before leaving this cat café, he also can't help but bought a stick to tease his cat.

Although he was back on Earth, Gu Yan did not rush to visit all the places. He had already decided to live in this city for a month or so and afterwards, he would return back to the Heidis empire with this Heidis in his hands.

Since they were going to stay in this place for a month, Gu Yan simply rented a house. The space was more than sufficient for two people to live in.

The stick he had bought back was lying on the bedside table. Gu Yan had just come out from the bathroom when the first thing he saw was the big cat lying by the pillow quietly.

This side of the Earth was much warmer than Aisers. In the Aisers, Gu Yan basically wrapped himself into a dumpling every time. However, on Earth, a shirt was enough.

The buttons on the youth's shirt were not buttoned up properly, and looking down from the white neck, he could see the slightly revealing, beautifully shaped collar bone.

The Heidis on the side of the pillow stared at the spot for a moment, then narrowed his pupils.

The big cat who was quietly lying down looked very docile and obedient now looked up at him. Gu Yan looked at this big cat, and then looked at the cat stick on the bedside table…

He really can't help it.

"Meow?"

Looking at a fur ball before his eyes, the Heidis didn't understand the youth's intentions at first but having recalled what he had seen in that room today, with his extremely excellent learning ability slowly lifted its front paws to gently nudge the furball.

In fact, it was easy for the Heidis to pounce on a moving thing.

The Heidis, disguised as a domestic cat, was merely cooperating with the youth and only wanted to do something that would make him happy.

Using the cat stick to tease the cat in all sorts of ways, Gu Yan was completely focused and momentarily unable to return to his senses…

Until his surroundings were turned upside down and pressed down on the bed by the grey-haired officer who had returned to his human form, whose countenance was cold and handsome.

"If I catch it, is it mine?"

The cold voice sounded beside his ears. However, in the state of shock, Gu Yan nodded, thinking the Heidis was referring to the cat stick.

"I caught Ah Yan."

The cold voice at this time was a little husky. Just as he heard this sentence, Gu Yan felt a familiar cool and soft touch on his neck.

He seemed to have…

Teased himself into trouble?
