Chapter 97: Gaze

"Face-to-face communication? You want me to go out?"

When Du Jiajia said this, she surprisingly didn't feel much fear. Perhaps in her subconscious, she had already regarded the cat as one of her own.

"Yes," Tang Jing nodded.

"No, it's too risky," Dong Junwei immediately objected.

"Of course, she won't go out all at once. Du Jiajia can slowly walk out from under the door crack and test Xiao Huang's reaction."

The gap under the door was about 1 centimeter high, so the cat's paw couldn't reach in. As long as she didn't go out entirely, there shouldn't be a problem.

At this point, Du Jiajia herself was the most anxious. Therefore, even though there was still some danger involved, she was willing to take the risk.

"I will make a notch in the door for you, so you won't have to bend down to get in and out," Chen Mu said.

"Okay," Du Jiajia firmly nodded.

However, at this moment, the commotion outside the door had ceased, indicating that the cat had returned home.

"We can only wait for it to come again next time."

"It seems so. As long as Du Jiajia has something to do and doesn't feel bored, Xiao Huang won't come."

"In that case, what if I pretend to be bored?" Du Jiajia had a sudden idea.

"You can try, but I don't think it will react. Can you deceive yourself in such matters?" Dong Junwei laughed.

As it turned out, the telepathic connection between Du Jiajia and the cat couldn't be faked. Perhaps because animals wouldn't deceive people, humans couldn't use pretense to communicate with them emotionally.

Du Jiajia even felt a bit guilty at one point.

Feeling sorry for her spiritual companion.

...

The last finishing work of sealing the door gap remained, but in order to accommodate Du Jiajia's experimental abilities, Lu Zhe temporarily stopped and started creating an opening at the bottom of the door, allowing a person to walk upright through it.

This was much simpler than the previous observation deck.

Therefore, it only took a few minutes to complete the task successfully.

After finishing, Chen Mu stood in this passage-like gap, pondered for a moment, and finally fetched a piece of glass to place it on the outside of the door.

The rest of the team returned to their respective positions, but Tang Jing was the only one who somehow appeared behind Chen Mu.

Due to the increasing number of superpowers in the team and the diversity and complexity of abilities, upon Dong Junwei's proposal and everyone's agreement, Tang Jing was no longer assigned specific tasks. In other words, she could do nothing and focus on studying various abilities and strategizing.

An unawakened person was actually guiding others every day on how to develop their abilities, which seemed quite interesting to think about.

"We discussed before about the adhesion of your ability to different materials. It seems like you've made progress?"

Through the glass, she could clearly see the little cat:

Its pale yellow fur;

Glistening whiskers;

Cute triangular "small" ears;

Curious and profound eyes;

...

Despite the vast difference in their sizes, humans' fondness for cats seemed unchanged. Even though they knew the other party could devour them in one bite, girls like Zhao Xiaoyan and Du Jiajia couldn't help but have the crazy idea of wanting to hold the little cat.

Outside, Xiao Huang let out urgent cries, clearly sensing Du Jiajia's approach but unable to see her. It became a bit anxious, scratching its ears and cheeks.

It kept leaping and bouncing around in typical kitten-like anxious and clumsy movements.

However, as Du Jiajia placed her hands on the glass and slowly brought her face closer, the little cat suddenly paused in its actions.

Its eyes were fixed on the spot where the glass was.

Chen Mu's heart was in his throat, prepared to pull Du Jiajia back at any sign of unusual behavior from the cat.

However, the next moment...

The cat's movements slowed down.

It blinked its eyes gently.

Then, it approached the door slowly, crouching down gently, resting its small head and placing its pink nose against the glass. Its eyes were curious and tender as they stared at Du Jiajia inside.

One human, one cat.

They gazed at each other through the glass.

"Meow..."

The little kitten emitted a soft, bone-deep meow.
