Chapter 22: Daily Mission 3

After coming home with the groceries, Zhao Yao began to rinse the meat and prepared the dishes while Matcha had a look of melancholy in his eyes.


Zhao Yao decided to use tap water to steam the meat in order to minimise the loss of nutrients since cats do not consume food with a lot of seasoning.


After the meat was cooked, Zhao Yao minced the beef and chicken together. Then, he added quail eggs and cauliflower into the pot.


Over an hour later, a simple meal for Matcha was finally ready to be consumed.


Zhao Yao referred to BOOK to grade the mushy meal prepared by him.


“Only basic grade?”, Zhao Yao mumbled while touching his chin. “There should be enough meat, what is the meal lacking?”


Zhao Yao went to look up the internet again and realized that most people prepare meals for their cats using fresh ingredients, the same way as he did. If a comparison was to be done for the protein content of the meal, it should be much higher than most manufactured cat food.


He studied various cat food nutritional labels online and found out what was missing from his meal.


“Hmm, taurine, vitamins, micronutrients…?” Zhao Yao frowned and said, “I’m afraid I’m lacking these.”


Matcha climbed over the kitchen’s glass door and stared intently at the pot of cat food while inhaling deeply as if he was trying to smell the aroma of the steamed meat. Mango looked at Zhao Yao and the food that he had prepared with a look of desire in his big and round eyes.


From a distance, Elizabeth looked at the two cats in disdain.


Although she did not look at the cat food, her nose involuntarily twitched.


Zhao Yao shook his head while looking at the two cats outside and said, “No, it’s not ready yet. Please wait for a little longer.”


“If I wait any longer, I’ll starve to death!” Matcha protested, “Let me have a bite, just a bite! Even if I starve, my kitten must eat.” He tapped Mango, looked at Elizabeth and said, “Elizabeth hasn’t eaten anything the whole night.”


“Do not drag me into this, I am not as greedy as you.”, Elizabeth said with discontentment.


“Okay, I will let all of you eat when I get back.”, Zhao Yao said helplessly as he saw saliva dripping down from the corner of Elizabeth’s mouth.


As it pertained the daily mission, Zhao Yao did not agree to let them eat. He immediately locked the food in the bedroom and planned to leave the house to buy some vitamin tablets for the cats.


As Zhao Yao exited from the small district, he drove towards Starry Starry pet hospital as he thinks that the hospital should sell vitamin tablets for cats.


As he walked into the hospital, the nurse in the front counter exclaimed, “Mister, you’re here?”


“What is it with the stray cats this time?


“I am here to buy something; do you sell vitamins for cats?” Zhao Yao said as he smiled.


“You mean nutrition powder?” The nurse blinked and said, “What do you plan to do with it? Add it to cat food? Just for everyday consumption or is it because a cat has fallen ill?”


Zhao Yao said, “I am preparing a meal for my cats and I found out that it is best to add this to increase the nutritional value of the meal.”


The nurse’s eyes gleamed, “In that case, hold on, I will get a few packets for you. Cats require various vitamins, taurine, calcium, etc.”


While talking, the nurse ran out of the hospital, leaving Zhao Yao alone at the counter.


After a few minutes, the nurse did not return. However, Dr. Liew came into the hospital instead, wearing heels with a white coat and a pair of black stockings.


Her emotionless face soon beamed with excitement as she saw Zhao Yao; greeting him with a brilliant smile.


“’Boss Zhao, you’re here?”


“Call me Zhao Yao instead.” Zhao Yao’s mouth twitched as he replied, feeling embarrassed by the way she addressed him.


“Zhao Yao, I heard you want to buy some nutrition powder?”


Dr. Liew stared at him with her sparkling eyes and said, “You must be preparing a meal for your cats. In that case, you have to include nutrition powder, especially taurine; cats need large amounts of taurine every day. This is beneficial to their vision, immunity, organs, and heart.”


“Alright, just recommend me some then.” Zhao Yao replied while waving his hand, as he witnessed how passionate Dr. Liew was.


Then, the nurse came back with several cans and tubs. “These are different imported nutrition powder; besides taurine and calcium, you should include these vitamins and micronutrients which should meet the cats’ daily recommended nutritional intake.” Dr. Liew explained passionately again.


“How much is it?” Zhao Yao asked.


“$300.” Dr. Liew exclaimed in excitement, “Since you have so many stray cats, I can give you a discount if you buy more…”


“I don’t need so much.” Zhao Yao interrupted her words and said, “I am only buying for a few cats, a tub will do just fine.”


“Huh?” Dr. Liew sighed and left with a look of disappointment in her eyes.


The nurse said awkwardly, “Dr. Liew has a surgical appointment in the afternoon…”


Zhao Yao brought the nutrition powder home and mixed it with the food that he had prepared. Matcha and Mango surrounded him and stared intensely at the food he was mixing.


Zhao Yao noted that the food had been upgraded to “excellent”.


“Alright, this is for you Matcha; and Mango, this is for you.”


He poured the minced meat separately into Matcha and Mango’s plates. The two cats immediately lowered their heads and began to wolf down the food.


Zhao Yao then walked towards Elizabeth as she lifted her head towards the windows with a look of depression.


Zhao Yao touched Elizabeth’s head and back as he placed a plate of cat food in front of her. He then said, “Don’t worry, we will find the murderer.”


Zhao Yao caressed Elizabeth’s back as he brushed through her smooth fur which felt like a silky cloth. As he lowered his head, he realized that she had already finished all the food on the plate.


“Tastes okay,” Elizabeth said as she was eating the food and swinging her paws.


“Why are you eating so quickly? You are going to have digestion problems.” Zhao Yao said as he placed his hand on her forehead.


“It’s not enough.” Elizabeth articulated unclearly.


Matcha was almost done with his meal as Zhao Yao gave Elizabeth more food. The fourth daily mission was finally completed.


With the experience in cooking cat food, Zhao Yao wondered if this would increase the experience he would obtain.


After all, cat food that is graded as “excellent” would increase experience points every ten days, while the cat food that is graded to be in the “supreme” tier will increase experience points every day. Zhao Yao really wanted to know if the value of the experience points would collectively increase as he mixed food of the “excellent” and “supreme” tiers together in this particular meal for Matcha.


What he does not know is that he would go on to include a mixture of “excellent” food and “supreme” food for the next half of the month; which only yielded a small increase in experience points every day.


Therefore, the experience points gained by nutrition are mainly dependent on the highest grade of food the cats have been fed with. Even if they consume various “supreme”, “excellent” and “basic” graded cat food, it would only increase the experience value by one point.


If Zhao Yao wants to increase the experience value of Matcha’s daily meals, he would have to obtain cat foods in the “supreme” or those in the higher tiers.


As he finally completed the four daily missions, Zhao Yao looked at the BOOK for the fifth daily mission, which is also the last mission.


Mission 5: With great power, comes great responsibility. Spend an hour outdoors with your Supercat and this could prevent the cat from creating a disturbance.


The mission’s bonus goal: To bring a Supercat out for a patrol lasting an hour or longer. If you are able to capture another Supercat, you would reap greater rewards (1 experience point). Failure to meet the bonus goal would not result in any punishment.


While looking at BOOK’s mission content, Zhao Yao thought to himself, “This mission only requires me to bring the Supercat out for a mere hour which seems easy to complete. As for the bonus mission, I would need some luck to complete it.”


Just as he was thinking to himself, he looked at the satisfied Matcha who was lying on the floor after consuming his meal. He immediately picked Matcha up and left the house.


“Meow!” Matcha purred in astonishment. “I don’t want to leave the house! I want to stay at home and use the wi-fi with the air-conditioner switched on!” Matcha exclaimed as he protested with his paws in the air.


“Let’s go, follow me for a walk.” Zhao Yao said.


“Meow! Zhao Yao! You are abusing cats!” Matcha motionlessly screamed as he was carried in the hands of Zhao Yao.


“If you want to bring me out, bring my corpse instead!”
