Seems Like I Forgot Something

After appearing on stage, Xia Yu was enthusiastically surrounded by the two hosts.

The male host exclaimed in surprise, "Although our show is called 'Cats and Dogs Rushing Forward,' the majority of cat owners are not enthusiastic. This is the first cat we've seen this month."

The female host continued, "The main reason is that cats are less obedient than dogs. So far, only dogs have been able to complete the entire race."

"However, all the cats that have come up before were male, and this time it's a female cat. Maybe we can expect something different."

"Alright, enough talking. Let's see how this cat will perform today."

The female host took Xia Yu from Yuxue's hands, and Yuxue walked to the end of the track and stood on a high platform.

Xia Yu's task was to walk from the starting point to where Yuxue was standing.

The track wasn't long, and if a person were to walk it, they could finish in just a few seconds. But pets, without their owners by their side, often took several minutes - that is, if they didn't fall into the water immediately.

Holding Xia Yu, the female host showed Xia Yu the direction where Yuxue was standing, and then let Xia Yu go.

This was to help the pet identify where their owner was.

Xia Yu slowly started walking and stepped onto the first challenge, the wooden bridge.

The male host began to explain, "We can see that Black Cat Xiao Hei has arrived at the first challenge, the wooden bridge. This is a very simple challenge, but it needs to overcome the fear of water, as there is water below the wooden bridge."

"Cats are more afraid of water than dogs, so this challenge is a bit difficult for them," said the female host.

Xia Yu glanced back at the two hosts, then broke into a small jog and crossed the wooden bridge, arriving at the second challenge - the maze.

Though called a maze, it was just a simple three-way intersection, with two dead ends and only one correct path.

At a glance, it was easy to tell which path was the right one.

After passing through the maze, Xia Yu arrived at the third challenge, the horrifying beast - a one-meter-tall tunnel entrance decorated to look like a lion's mouth, with teeth that glowed.

Pets that could not tell the difference between real and fake would be terrified.

However, Xia Yu was an intelligent teenager.

After passing through the tunnel entrance, Xia Yu arrived at the fourth challenge.

"Well, we saw that Xiao Hei had no difficulty in passing through the first, second, and third challenges, but the fourth challenge has the highest elimination rate. The last Golden Retriever failed here," said the male host, not optimistic.

The female host then explained the design of the fourth challenge, "The name of the fourth challenge is 'Toy Temptation.' On both sides of the aisle, there are many toys, as well as delicious treats like small dried fish and canned fish. Will our Xiao Hei be able to resist such temptation?"

"Ha, it really went towards the toy. If it leaves within fifteen seconds, it can continue to the next challenge. But if it stays for more than fifteen seconds, then we can only say it's a pity." The male host continued to be pessimistic.

"So far, none of the pets that have touched these toys have been able to leave within fifteen seconds." The female host also wasn't optimistic.

After eating a small dried fish, Xia Yu turned his head and glanced at the two hosts. He just saw that the dried fish seemed delicious, so he stopped to taste it.

After biting two more times, Xia Yu picked up a cat teaser next to him and continued to walk forward.

These two hosts kept speaking negatively about him along the way, making him feel a bit annoyed, so he intentionally grabbed a prop to make things difficult for them.

The two hosts looked at each other, and the male host said, "This is the first time we've encountered such a situation. However, since it didn't stop, the score will count."

Holding the cat teaser, Xia Yu reached the final challenge. Just ten meters away, he could reach the spot under Yuxue.

At this moment, a man wearing a goat mask suddenly appeared from around the corner next to him.

Xia Yu was startled.

"Our little black cat has reached the fifth challenge, and he was startled by our goat monster! Ha, its fur is standing on end! Next, the goat monster will perform a threatening gesture on the spot. Can our little black cat overcome its fear and charge... "

The male host's excited expression suddenly turned to surprise: "Uh, there seems to be a problem on the field. Little black cat is rushing towards our staff member dressed as a goat. Quick, run!"

"Cameraman, cameraman, quickly go to the fourth challenge and fetch something to distract Little Black!"

The surrounding staff panicked, as the scene of the black cat puffing up its fur and chasing people was quite scary.

In the end, the staff member wearing the goat mask leaped into the water to avoid Xia Yu's chase.

Standing at the edge of the stage, Xia Yu coldly glanced at the goat-masked man below and smoothed his fur.

The previous challenges went too smoothly, making him forget that a goat face would suddenly appear in the fifth challenge, causing him to be startled.

Baring his teeth at the goat face below, Xia Yu picked up the cat teaser from the ground and arrived at Yuxue's feet.

"Congratulations to our number five contestant, Little Black, for successfully completing our racecourse and winning a washing machine provided by the Leng Lie Valley Company."

The two hosts arrived at the finish line and began their commentary.

"Although there were some twists and turns, our little black cat has successfully completed the racecourse. As the first cat to reach the finish line, do you have anything to say?" The male host put the microphone in front of Xia Yu's mouth.

Xia Yu looked at him with a loving gaze as if he were mentally challenged and remained silent.

"It seems that our champion has nothing to say. Let's interview the owner. How did you train such an obedient cat?" The female host handed the microphone to Yuxue.

Yuxue recalled her communication with the black cat, which wasn't something to brag about, but she couldn't stay silent.

Thinking of her brother's guidance, the girl cleared her throat and said, "It's mainly about heart-to-heart communication."

"How so?" The female host asked further, as she also had a cat and asked this question with a personal motive.

"We can't treat a cat like a machine, we need to establish a friendly relationship with it, so that both hearts can communicate with each other..." After making up some mysterious talks, Yuxue stepped down from the stage.

After filling in her home address backstage, Yuxue returned home.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the program crew sent a van with her washing machine.

Xia Yu, who had already exchanged bodies with the black cat, guided the staff to place the washing machine on the balcony.

When Xia Dongyang, who was about to go to work, saw the washing machine, he snorted disdainfully, "Why would you need a washing machine? So pretentious!"

He couldn't tell that it was an expensive high-end product, and thought it was just a cheap thing.

"Go to your work!"

Xia Yu shouted at him, and he quickly slipped out of the house.

Yuxue, who was a little nervous, returned to her cheerful mood after Xia Dongyang left. She stood by the washing machine, reading the manual and admiring the features, occasionally exclaiming, "How amazing!"

The more amazing one is me!

Glancing at the washing machine, Xia Yu returned to the bedroom.

The second test task had been achieved. The first task required two instances and another unusual time for the game.

An Siyao had to go to class during the day, so playing with the black cat seemed like a good choice, but Xia Yu suddenly remembered something.

It seemed that he promised An Siyao that he would be in her body yesterday.

"..."

It's my game, and I can be in whoever's body I want!

Besides, I have serious business to do!

However, considering An Siyao is an important game character, it was necessary to take her feelings into account.

He planned to experience being a rich young lady at school the next day, while also explaining the situation to her.
