Let's not talk about how conflicted and helpless Miko felt after turning into a cat. At this moment, Li Yi's brows were also furrowed tightly.
The death of his father was the most painful memory of his youth. If the body hadn't rotted, there might have been a way to revive him, but unfortunately, his father had been cremated on the same day.
Gently flipping through the photo album by the bedside, many of the photos were of his father. The memories from his youth came flooding back, making Li Yi feel a myriad of emotions.
"Right, it seems my genes..." Li Yi suddenly remembered that during the physical enhancement in another universe, he had discovered a problem with his body's genes, which had troubled him for a long time.
"Should I check it out?"
Li Yi's mood was a bit chaotic, and he instinctively searched for some items his father had used in life, then began to test the DNA on them.
The test results made Li Yi's brows furrow even deeper.
From the genetic analysis, his father was a eunuch and had no blood relation to him at all!
"How could this be?"
Although he had been mentally prepared, Li Yi still found it hard to accept the test results. After all, that was his father, the one who had raised him from a young age, and they had a bond thicker than blood.
"What about Mom and Xiaoting..."
A thought arose in his mind, but he quickly suppressed it.
"Even if my father and I have no blood relation, so what? The fatherly affection from my childhood isn't fake, his love for me isn't fake, he is my father!"
"Mom and Xiaoting are the same. Mom will always be my mom, and Xiaoting will always be my sister!"
Li Yi plopped down on the sofa, took a deep breath, and his gaze gradually became firm.
"Xiaoting, I'm going out for a bit!"
Without waiting for his sister's response, Li Yi grabbed the cat from the coffee table and walked out the door. Miko meowed sadly, her mind in turmoil, unsure of where she was being taken.
"This bastard, this bastard, this bastard..."
Just as Miko had cursed Li Yi for the hundredth time, Li Yi had already gotten into a taxi and was heading north in the city.
The death of Li Yi's father had nothing to do with Miko but was the work of another person named Du Lerren.
When Old Mi was at the height of his power, Du Lerren was ranked fourth among his group of brothers, known as Du Fourth Master. After Old Mi's death, Du Lerren inherited his legacy and became the new leader of the city's black society.
Du Lerren was a man of righteousness, carrying on Old Mi's legacy, and he took very good care of Old Mi's daughter. Upon learning of Miko's trouble, he immediately used his connections to try to get her out of it.
Everything was almost settled, but then Li Yi's father, who didn't know his place, actually identified Miko as the murderer!
Miko herself didn't care much, or rather, she was a bit "dumb," and she even said she would take responsibility for her actions, even if it meant facing the firing squad, telling Du Lerren not to worry.
But how could Du Lerren let it go? His subordinates were all Old Mi's old gang, and if Miko were to die, it would break the hearts of many of his brothers.
In Miko's memory, Du Lerren told her not to act rashly, saying he would handle everything, and then Li Yi's father died. She had no idea how it happened, and it wasn't until she was kidnapped that she learned from Li Yi that the witness who had identified her was dead.
The taxi stopped at a cattle farm in the northern part of the city. Li Yi got out with his cat and gently stroked its head, saying, "Your Uncle Du Fourth has been good to you, but he is the one who killed my father, so he must die. Do you understand?"
"Huh? This man wants to kill Uncle Du Fourth?" Miko's pupils instantly turned vertical.
Most black societies mainly engage in the entertainment industry, such as bathing, sauna, prostitution, gambling, and drugs, but the black society in this city was a bit different.
Du Lerren was a man with foresight, always wanting to transition into legitimate business and become an entrepreneur, so he had set up many factories over the years.
Unfortunately, although he had foresight, he had no business acumen. In simple terms, he was ambitious but lacked the means to achieve his goals and didn't know how to manage.
No matter what kind of factory he set up, Du Lerren always lost a fortune.
Having lost all his assets, Du Lerren was furious. Later, he slapped his forehead and shouted, "I'll just get into agriculture and livestock!"
Du Lerren believed that the reason he had lost money before was because he had ventured into industries he didn't understand, but he was familiar with agriculture and livestock!
He was a farmer by birth, having raised cattle and sheep, pigs, and planted crops from a young age. He might not understand other industries, but he understood this one!
So Du Lerren leased large tracts of farmland and set up livestock farms in the city. To date, he had fifteen farms, including chicken, duck, pig, and cattle farms, as well as four fish ponds and one shrimp pond.
The more farms he set up, the more he lost. The familiar industry did not bring him profit but instead brought him a large amount of debt.
It turned out that running a cattle farm was not the same as raising cattle on your own!
It turned out that running a pig farm was not the same as raising pigs on your own!
It turned out that leasing farmland was not the same as farming on your own!
...
This was Du Lerren's experience over the years, all bought with countless amounts of money.
Although his business had failed miserably, these farms were not entirely useless. The simplest use was that with these farms, his brothers didn't have to buy meat!
Du Lerren loved beef the most, so the cattle farm was his base of operations, and the members of the society usually gathered here.
Miko was very familiar with this cattle farm. In the past, whenever she came here, the gatekeepers would always come out to greet her respectfully, calling her "Sister Mi."
But this time, no one would come out because she was being carried by a bastard and could only meow!
"Who the hell can explain why I turned into a cat!"
Frustrated, Miko could only vent her anger on Li Yi, scratching him with her four paws, but Li Yi was completely immune to this attack.
"You seem quite energetic. Are you this excited to be home? Come on, meow for your brothers to hear!" Li Yi said, pinching the cat's neck.
Miko instantly deflated like a punctured balloon, her four legs hanging limp.
"Stop, what are you doing here?"
The two gatekeepers of the cattle farm, seeing a teenager carrying a cat approaching, stepped out with some confusion.
This was not an ordinary cattle farm; it was Du Fourth Master's base. At that moment, Du Fourth Master was having fun with a few college girls inside, and no one could disturb him.
"I'm here to kill someone," Li Yi said calmly.
"You? Kill someone?" The two gatekeepers widened their eyes, "Do you know where you are? Who do you want to kill? Who can you kill?"
"I want to kill Du Lerren. If you don't want to die, get out of my way!"
"How dare you come here alone to challenge Fourth Master? I think you want to die!"
One of the gatekeepers, without a word, took out a large machete from the gatehouse, about thirty to forty centimeters long, and swung it at Li Yi.
The other gatekeeper was not to be outdone, raising a three-meter-long iron pipe!
