Starry Sky Train, I opened a small shop on the train

Chapter 532, Cat Palace and Nai

at the same time.

Zero World, near the dead end and the void.

Nicole still encountered Red Fang Gang henchmen.

Several members of the Red Fang Gang had their eyes on Nicole.

At this moment, Nicole was surrounded by several Red Fang Gang henchmen.

One of the gang members pulled out a knife and threatened him.

"Hand over your stuff!"

Nicole raised her hands.

"Okay, okay, I'll hand it over. The things are in the box next to my feet. Come and get them."

What bad luck! You guys actually found me.

With that, Nicole let out a helpless sigh.

Seeing this, one of the gang members cautiously stepped forward and took Nicole's suitcase away.

Once they reached what the gang considered a safe location, the gang opened the box.

The moment the box was opened, an explosion rang out, sending several gang members flying.

Nicole's lips curled into a sly smile.

"Use your brain, you idiot."

Just as Nicole was feeling smug, a voice rang out from not far away.

"Here he is! Brothers! Charge!"

Before anyone knew it, the Red Fang Gang's reinforcements arrived, and Ni immediately ran away.

The Red Fang Gang pursued them relentlessly.

Nicole was running when she was suddenly grabbed by a hand and pulled into a small alley.

"Hush! Quiet!"

Nicole glanced at the person who had ambushed her; it was a cat-like creature.

Nicole was only freed after the Red Fang Gang members had gone far away.

Nicole turned around and looked at the cat-like figure.

"Thank you for saving me, Nicole from Rabbit House. And you?"

"This is how Cat Xiren introduces himself."

“My name is Nekomiya Matana, you can call me Nekomata, it’s the same.”

Nicole smiled upon hearing this.

"Hello, Nekomata. Thanks to you just now, otherwise I'm afraid I'd still be being chased by the Red Fang Gang."

The cat looked at Nicole again.

"I didn't save you for nothing. I came here specifically to find you, Nicole from the Rabbit House. I have a request. Will you take it?"

Nicole perked up instantly upon hearing about the request.

"A commission? Of course I'll take it. What kind of commission?"

"The cat said again."

"I need your help to find a relic in the Dead End Void. This relic is very important."

Nicole heard this.

"Is it a dead end or an empty road? That place is quite dangerous."

But since you chose the Rabbit's House, I'll take it.

Do you have any clues about the lost items?

The cat shook its head again.

"No."

Nicole frowned slightly upon hearing this.

"This is a bit troublesome."

"The cat said again."

"No rush, take your time looking."

Nicole nodded upon hearing this.

"Alright, then I'll lead my men into the Dead End Void the day after tomorrow."

The cat was very puzzled.

"Why the day after tomorrow? Shouldn't it be tomorrow?"

Nicole said.

"Because I'm going to a big festival celebration tomorrow."

The cat was puzzled by what it heard.

"Festivals and celebrations? I don't recall New Elidu having any festivals recently, right?"

Nicole smiled upon hearing this.

"I can't tell you that right now, see you later."

Nicole picked up the suitcase and turned to leave.

The cat watched Nicole's departing figure, rubbing its chin, completely puzzled.

"Does New Ellie have any holidays recently? I don't remember, right?"

The cat felt something was strange.

After thinking for a moment, the cat decided to sneakily follow Nicole to see what kind of celebration she was attending tomorrow. The cat's tracking skills were far superior to those of the Red Fang Gang; Nicole didn't even notice the little tail that had appeared behind her—a cat's tail.

Silent all night.

Time comes the next day.

Nicole, Ambby, and Billy rushed to the video store.

At this moment, Ling and Zhe had just gotten up and were washing up.

Ling glanced at Nicole, Ambly, and Billy.

"Please wait a moment, we'll go together after we've washed up."

Nicole nodded, and the three of them went to a booth outside the store to sit and rest for a while.

Nicole also asked number 18 for a cappuccino and sat down in the booth to enjoy it.

Not far from them, the cat was secretly observing them.

"Strange? Didn't Nicole say she was going to a festival celebration? Why is she at a video store? I don't understand."

Soon, Ling and Zhe finished washing up, and the two of them went to the store entrance, called Nicole, and the three of them went into the store.

Seeing this, the cat quickly followed.

The cat cautiously sneaked into the video store, sniffed the lingering scents in the air, and then arrived at the portal in the garage.

The cat looked at the portal in front of it with great curiosity.

This door just stands here all alone. Won't it fall down?
The cat reached out and pushed the portal again, but the portal remained unmoved.

Seeing this, the cat became even more interested.

"It's interesting."

The cat opened the door again and went inside; the scent she had been tracking disappeared there.

It was obvious that Nicole and the others had walked into the portal.

The cat suddenly felt everything go black.

When she regained her vision, she realized she had arrived in an unfamiliar place.

Many people stood in front of her.

"Whose friend is this?"

The cat felt a sudden tightening at the back of its neck as it was lifted up.

The cat turned around and saw a very handsome boy holding it by the back of the neck.

The boy was Ye Yun, who had just discovered the cat demon sneaking out of the portal.

Nicole noticed this.

"Nekota??? What are you doing here?"

Nicole was puzzled; why would a cat be here?

"The cat said again."

"I'm here to see you. I need to expedite this."

The cat made up another lie; it couldn't very well say that it was specifically stalking Nicole, could it?
Nicole heard this.

"Even with expedited processing, there's nothing I can do. I promised to attend the festival celebration today."

The cat heard this again.

"Okay then, you go have fun, I'm going back now."

As it spoke, the cat broke free from Ye Yun's hand and prepared to go back through the portal.

At this time.

Lisa invited.

"Since we're already here, let's go have some fun together."

Lisa realized that the kitten girl had just been lying, which was quite interesting.

Upon hearing this, the cat was about to refuse, but Lisa didn't give her the chance.

"You must be Nico's friend, right? Let's go have some fun together, the Windflower Festival in Mondstadt is really exciting."

Seeing this, the cat realized that since everyone had extended such a warm invitation, it wouldn't be right to refuse.

"Okay, then I'll go with you."

Oh right, I haven't introduced myself yet.

Hello, my name is Nekomiya Matana, Nekohito, you can also call me Nekomata.

Upon hearing this, Lisa...

"Oh~ Neko-mata, what a unique name."

Let's go, let's go to Mondstadt.

After saying that, Lisa beckoned everyone to enter the portal to the same new Mondstadt.

The cat stepped into the portal again, and everything went black once more.

When she regained her vision, she found herself in a castle.

The cat was very curious.

"Where is this? Does New Elidu still have places like this?"

Nicole came over after hearing this.

"New Elidu? This isn't New Elidu. This is another world, not the world we live in."

Upon hearing this, the cat was instantly startled.

"What? This is another world? Is this real?"
