Chapter 165: 132. A clever hunter often appears in the guise of the prey.

Dream Fantasy Bar, second floor.

Under the leadership of their senior who had merged with the magic hound gene, Ma Xiwei and her schoolmate were quickly brought up to the second floor of the bar.

“Where is that woman?”

Ma Xiwei lowered her voice, using “that woman” to refer to “cat woman,” to avoid alerting their quarry.

The senior did not speak, only extending his finger to point at a girl sitting in a corner up ahead.

Ma Xiwei followed his gesture and saw a girl who looked like a college student.

The girl was dressed conservatively, neither showing her chest nor her legs, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses that gave off a studious vibe, sitting somewhat reservedly in the corner by herself.

She seemed like someone visiting a bar for the first time, giving off quite an introverted impression.

“Are you sure it’s her?”

Ma Xiwei asked the senior to confirm.

The girl in the corner didn’t look at all like the debauched cat woman described in the mission brief.

Most likely, she had meticulously disguised her appearance.

But out of caution, they still needed to make sure.

The senior affirmed, “The biological scent she’s emitting is exactly the same as what I smelled on the cat woman’s personal belongings at the security department. There’s no mistake.”

Ma Xiwei nodded, speaking softly, “Then let’s not delay, we should go do her in now.”

The senior and the schoolmate made an OK gesture and immediately split into three directions to approach the girl in the corner naturally.

In just a short while, the three had closed in around the girl, cutting off all her escape routes.

Just as the three were about to make a move on the girl, who had been quietly looking at her phone, she suddenly curled her lips up in a scornful smirk.

The next moment, she leaped up, smashing through the glass window behind her, and jumped down to escape.

“Chase her!”

Ma Xiwei shouted loudly.

As her voice fell, the three of them jumped out the window, relentlessly pursuing the fleeing girl.

“No good, the cat woman is too fast, we simply can’t catch up, we’re going to lose her!”

Having chased for less than a few hundred meters, Ma Xiwei felt somewhat powerless to continue.

The senior said, “No worries, I can keep tracking her scent. As long as she thinks she’s safe and stops for a moment, we can catch up to her right away.”

While running, Ma Xiwei said, “Ming brother, Shan sister, you two are faster than me, you go ahead and catch up to her first, I’ll follow gradually from behind.”

“Okay, then the two of us will go ahead.”

After dropping this line, the senior and schoolmate, both with Biological Levels reaching Ordinary Seventh Rank, sped up and chased after the girl.

In just a few seconds, Ma Xiwei was left dozens of meters behind, unable to see the two figures.

The street was bustling with people, greatly obstructing the line of sight.

However, this did not stop Ma Xiwei from following.

Because all three of them were wearing locator watches, Ma Xiwei only needed to follow the locator to keep up.

About five minutes later.

Ma Xiwei finally caught up with the two.

At that moment, they had stopped at the entrance of an old street waiting for her.

It wasn’t so much waiting as it was that the two had lost track of their quarry.

The senior looked at Ma Xiwei, frowning, “The scent of the cat woman has disappeared, covered up by some smell, making it difficult for me to locate her by scent now.”

Upon hearing that, Ma Xiwei immediately took out a bottle of reagent from her person and handed it to the senior, saying, “Ming brother, here’s a bottle of gene amplification liquid, drink it and see if you can smell the cat woman’s scent again.”

“I’ll try.”

The senior reached out to take the reagent.

Just as he was about to open the cap and drink it, he suddenly caught the cat woman’s scent again.

It was faint, but he definitely smelled it.

“Weiwei, we don’t need to waste this bottle of gene amplification liquid.”

The senior smiled, handed the reagent back to Ma Xiwei, and then said, “I’ve picked up the cat woman’s scent again, it’s inside the street.”

“Then let’s go, we should hurry in,”

anxious not to let the cat woman get away again, Ma Xiwei urged them hastily.

Very quickly, under the senior’s lead, the three of them penetrated deeper into the old street and finally stopped in front of a secluded, old alleyway.

According to the source of the scent, the cat woman was hiding inside.

Looking down the alleyway, they saw it was full of life’s refuse, emitting wafts of foul odor.

Probably some unscrupulous residents, too lazy to go to the designated waste stations, opted to dump their garbage into the alleyway instead.

“It really stinks in there.”

The senior frowned deeply, “No wonder I suddenly couldn’t smell the cat woman’s scent earlier, it must have been covered by the stench from the garbage in the alley. Then, as my nose adapted to these odors, I was slowly able to recognize the cat woman’s scent again.”

Ma Xiwei said, “Let’s go, we’ll go in and find the cat woman, quick battle, quick decision.”

The schoolmate agreed, “We must make it quick, it’s too stinky inside, staying even a second longer is torture.”

After a brief exchange, the three of them immediately set off deeper into the alleyway.

Then, guided by the scent of the cat woman, they found the bespectacled girl they had been chasing, at the far end of the alley in a deadend.

At this time, the bespectacled girl stood leaning against the wall, quietly playing with her phone.

The senior looked at the bespectacled girl and said, “You’re pretty good at hiding, deliberately choosing an alley full of trash smell, we almost lost you.”

“If I really wanted to run, do you think you could have caught up?”

The bespectacled girl pocketed her phone and turned her head to look at the three people blocking the entrance of the alley, a shallow smile appearing on her lips, “The smarter the hunter, the more they enjoy posing as the prey, don’t you understand that?”

With those words, she took off her glasses and casually tossed them aside.

Then, on the top of her head, a pair of thick cat ears grew at a visible speed, and several fine whiskers rapidly sprouted on her face.

In just a brief moment, the girl who was filled with a student’s air had transformed into a wild-eyed cat-ear girl.

The biological pressure she exuded also skyrocketed to the Ordinary Ninth Rank!

Ordinary Ninth Rank?!

Feeling the powerful biological pressure emanating from the cat-ear girl, all three of them wore faces of surprise that quickly turned to horror, and without saying another word, they turned and ran.

This cat-ear girl had hidden her strength!

Her Biological Level wasn’t the Ordinary Sixth Order described in the mission, but an extraordinary Ordinary Ninth Rank!

This mission was impossible to complete!

“Hmph, thinking of escaping?”

The cat-ear girl sneered with contempt.

Then with a slight effort of her calves, she leaped high into the air, vaulting over the heads of the three people who were fleeing in front of her.

She landed with a “thud” right before them, blocking their only escape route.

“So cool.”

The cat-ear girl stared intently at the senior, unable to resist sticking out her tongue and licking her lips, “This handsome guy, the moment you came into the bar, I’ve been craving you.”

“Bang—!”

As soon as the cat-ear girl finished speaking, Ma Xiwei pulled out a smoke bomb from her bosom and smashed it on the ground, releasing a large cloud of purple-blue smoke.

Inhaling this purple-blue smoke significantly reduced a creature’s biological activity, causing a dramatic weakening in their sensory perception.

It had a good effect, whether for killing the enemy or for escaping.

Under the cover of the smoke.

Ma Xiwei and the other two quickly covered their mouths and noses and escaped from the alley.

Once they were well away from the alley.

The trio finally stopped.

The female senior said with a look of fright, “That was so dangerous, that was really so dangerous, no wonder the cat-ear girl has been at large in Shanhai City for so long without being caught, she was hiding her strength.”

The senior, still shaken, said, “Weiwei, call President Ma quickly and inform him about the cat-ear girl, tell him to contact the relevant school leaders immediately to revise that damn cat-ear girl mission.”

“I, I’ll call now.”

Ma Xiwei’s lips quivered slightly, and she shakily took out her phone to call Ma Zhenhe.

But before she could make the call, she somehow thought of Lin Zichen.

Lin Zichen had also taken up this cat-ear girl mission.

With his strength, if he encountered the cat-ear girl without any defensive items, he would surely be doomed.

“No, I have to warn him!”

Thinking this, Ma Xiwei quickly opened WeChat, found Shen Qinghan’s avatar, and sent her an invitation for a voice chat.

She didn’t have Lin Zichen’s contact information, so she could only contact Shen Qinghan first, tell her about the cat-ear girl, and then have Shen Qinghan contact Lin Zichen.

She really disliked Lin Zichen, but she was clear in her heart that strictly speaking, there was no deep hatred between them, and it wasn’t a matter of leaving him to die.

Meanwhile.

In the alley.

The cat-ear girl had escaped the engulfment of the purple-blue smoke and moved to a smoke-free area, where her sensory perception quickly returned.

“Bang!”

Angry, she kicked a hole through the wall in front of her, cursing in irritation, “Damn it, the cooked duck flew away!”

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

After kicking the wall three times in a row and feeling that she had vented enough frustration, the cat-ear girl didn’t stay in the alley any longer and quickly left.

Her whereabouts had been exposed, and if she didn’t leave promptly, she risked being encircled.

“Hmm?”

No sooner had the cat-ear girl come out of the alley than she froze in place.

On the old street ahead, she saw an extremely handsome young man walking towards her.

This young man’s attractiveness surpassed that of Ma Xiwei’s senior from just moments before by more than tenfold.

“So handsome!”

Salivating, the cat-ear girl instantly showed a perverted smile full of animalistic desire, “A blessing in disguise, but your misfortune for bumping into me means you can only blame your bad luck.”

After muttering these words to herself.

The cat-ear girl could no longer resist the urge in her heart and charged at the young man at top speed, intending to drag him somewhere secluded to thoroughly enjoy him.
