At 9am on April 16, 2019, there was a simultaneous biological riot around the world, the size of various breeds of house pets that were raised at home skyrocketed. Due to the great significance, since then, scientists viewed it as the beginning of the evolutionary era, and was solemnly recorded into history.

On April 17, the species who experienced the violent day had varying degrees of shrinkage in size as well, after surveying, it showed there was a great increase in IQ.

On April 18, there was a case at X district where a pet spoke in human language for the first time.

On April 19, according to the survey at the scene, the pets who spoke were logical and their thinking was clear, their perception of things outside the world was indistinguishable from that of humans.

On X/X, biologists uniformly named these types of organisms as evolutionary species, and evolutionary species were divided based on their morphology, physical capability, and IQ. Subsequently, divided into: half species, first-order species and second-order species.

……

On X/X/2020, the law on the protection of the rights and interests of evolutionary species was officially launched, countries from all around the world actively requested the integration of evolutionary species into society.

On X/X/202, 1,333 emerging industries which specialized in lifestyle products for evolutionary species entered the marketplace.

……

After Li Hong Ming finished laying out the main time-line, he summarized, “These past two years, there was basically nothing too fast or strong in the development of science and technology. Practically all of our resources were spent on this integration of humans and Evolutionary species. Personally, I think that it was very successful. There was no bloodshed in the various areas of the world. It was a peaceful transition.”

‘There is a big change in the business field though, with this new ‘population’ of evolutionary species entering society, their requirements were entirely different from humans. New business opportunities have arisen in clothing, food, housing and transportation, and there are a few remarkable evolutionary species who seized the opportunity to accumulate assets to the point of directly leaving behind those big shots of the past.”

“Why aren’t you talking, am I not explaining clear enough?”

Kang Xing Luo shook his head, his mind was still somewhat muddled, Li Hong Ming explained it clearly, and because it was clear, due the amount of information packed in it, was the reason that made people unable to accept it for a while.

Pets turned humans, evolutionary species? In just two years, there was such a great change in this era?

Li Hong Ming, “It’s hard to believe right? I couldn’t believe it at first. Do you still remember how big Bai Lai was? Try to imagine, at that time he probably enlarged around 20 times the original size, those eyes were huge!…That was quite scary at first, but thinking about how the whole world is like this, and (I) slowly got used to it.”

Kang Xing Luo was able to comprehend Li Hong Ming’s experience. If he was there at that time, he would probably have the same reaction, but what Kang Xing Luo was worried about now wasn’t this, he frowned and solemnly said, “It took two years to finish the species evolution?”

Wasn’t it too fast???

No matter how you thought about it, it was impossible.

Li Hong Ming laughed, “Did you think it’s too fast?”

Kang Xing Luo nodded, Li Hong Ming, “Then, you’re wrong.”

Li Hong Ming said it took two years to transition to the age of evolution, yet he didn’t say the evolution only started during those two years. Scientists from throughout various regions, who researched about the evolution, all had different hypotheses. However they all had one common agreement about the violent day. It was merely a day where results were shown, and the real evolution began unconsciously and gradually much earlier on.

“The so-called two years were actually just used to transition evolutionary species into society. Even before the evolutionary species entered society, their IQ had already rivaled that of humans’ since day 416, understand?”

Kang Xing Luo pondered, “So what you are saying is, pets, evolutionary species from a long time ago, already had the capability to think by themselves?”

Li Hong Ming, “Yes.”

So that would actually mean, when people thought of raising the other party as pets, those pets already had a mind of their own.

Kang Xing Luo contemplated momentarily.

Li Hong Ming, “I guess that’s the cause of it, Bai Lai might have been holding a grudge against me for a long time now, I thought he … This is pissing me off! Motherf*cker why didn’t I neuter him when I got the chance! I’m really … Doofus, Doofus??”

Kang Xing Luo was in fact listening, his mind was focused on listening, however, his heart was chaotic.

The impact of this information was too great, with society changing at such a large scale, it was full of mysteries and unknown to him. Although it explained those strange scenes he came across upon waking up, that doesn’t mean he could accept them.

Pets turning into humans and what not……

He had an epiphany. Kang Xing Luo blurted out, “My cat…”

Li Hong Ming, “What’s wrong with your cat?”

Kang Xing Luo asked urgently, “Do you know what happened to my cats?”

If pets could truly turn into a human, then didn’t that mean there was a possibility that his cats could also turn into humans, and were now living well somewhere.

Li Hong Ming thought about it, said, “I’m unsure about the going-ons with your cats. When the violent day came, it caused some houses to collapse, the house you rented was included. I tried looking for you, but you disappeared without a trace, I was anxious to death. How could I still have the effort to take consideration of your cats.”

When he said this, the vexed feeling when he saw Kang Xing Luo’s apartment collapsed at that time resurfaced, “Don’t talk about this anymore, you raised four cats right?”

Kang Xing Luo, “Six of them”

Li Hong Ming was astonished, “Wasn’t it four?”

Kang Xing Luo was a little embarrassed, “Then, I carried two more.”

Li Hong Ming, “……”

Li Hong Ming gave a thumbs-up.

He truly had immense admiration towards Kang Xing Luo, this cat slave, whose own economic level could barely keep a body and soul together, still, raised six cats?

Badass.

“Forget about it, it’s useless to talk about these things. Tell me the names of your cats and I’ll entrust someone to help you gather information for you, but don’t get your hopes up too much. Although, evolutionary species appeared in a large scale, yet the overall number of them is still relatively rare, half species are considered one in a hundred, then first-order species are one in ten thousand, and not to mention there’s also the second-order species …… Just in case, from those six cats you raised, there might not be one evolutionary species.”

It didn’t matter if there was one or not, Kang Xing Luo’s unreasonable request wasn’t actually about evolutionary species.

He only wished for his cats to be safe and sound, if by any chance there was one evolutionary species existing among them, since the six of them had a close relationship, they might ensure the lives and safety of the rest of them.

“Name.”

Kang Xing Luo, “Da Hei, Xiao Hua.” Li Hong Ming typed speedily, and Kang Xing Luo continued on reciting steadily, “Xiao Shizi, Tai Zi……”

Li Hong Ming knew of the first three names, however, he basically held no hope. If anyone of them became a remarkable evolutionary species, then he, who had been mixing in the social circle, would certainly have heard about it. According to his estimations, there was a possibility that those six cats were crushed to death during that violent day. Speaking optimistically, then they would probably have become stray cats.

Came to think of it, Da Hei was actually chubby, and quite cute. What a pity.

Kang Xing Luo continued, “Tai Zi.”

Li Hong Ming nodded, “This name is indeed better than those previous ones, I haven’t met this cat yet right, how come I don’t remember, Tai Zi, Tai Zi, Tai …… Eh??? Tai Zi???”

After repeating this name, Li Hong Ming was not the only one surprised, Kang Xing Luo’s expression changed too, not for any other reason than the experience he had in the hotel a while ago.

Hold on!

Hold on!!!

His cat, Tai Zi……

Superstar???

Was it possible???

Kang Xing Luo turned pale from fright, with this possibility popping up, it made him skeptical of what he had seen or heard just now, came to think of it, that hair! It was half gold and half white!

Thinking about Tai Zi for a moment, there was an odd sense of synchronization of his appearance!!

At that time, he thought the superstar’s haircut was peculiar, however, if that man was his cat then the pattern was spot on!!!

But …… But…

Did Tai Zi have that kind of temperament??? That Tai Zi was undoubtedly aloof!

Could it be that evolutionary species’ temperament also goes through great changes, after becoming human???

Kang Xing Luo’s expression turned grave, Li Hong Ming’s expression was incredulous, then he thought aloud, “Impossible …… That Tai Zi? I remember him being the sole second-order species in the entertainment industry, I still have not seen a single second-order species in real life yet … ”

After confirming it in his mind, Li Hong Ming, “Doofus, you might not believe it, but I know an evolved species called Tai Zi, he’s quite famous.”

How could Kang Xing Luo not believe it, he not only heard of him, but also just met him. Tai Zi planned to provide for him and have him sign a raising agreement.

???

Hold on…..

Raising Agreement???

Kang Xing Luo, “Do you know what’s a raising agreement?”

Li Hong Ming, “Where did you hear this word? You actually know about the raising agreement?”

Kang Xing Luo, “What is it?”

Li Hong Ming, “It’s a contract between a pet after becoming an evolved species to live with their original owners again.”

Kang Xing Luo, “…….”

Kang Xing Luo, “……”

Kang Xing Luo, “…….”

Li Hong Ming, “What are you looking at, what’s wrong?”

Kang Xing Luo’s face looked complicated, “Why do I suddenly feel my heart is so dirty?”

Li Hong Ming, “……”

What happened in the past was hard to explain, Kang Xing Luo briefly told Li Hong Ming about Tai Zi, instantly knowing his cat was a second-order evolved species, and living a prosperous life was a good thing. However, Li Hong Ming became serious after being dumbfounded.

“Knowing your cat is living a good life is indeed good, but it’s better to not get too close to him, it’s dangerous…..”

Kang Xing Luo, “Why?”

Li Hong Ming, “Think about it, you raised the cats for such a long time, surely there must have been times where you smacked their butts or yelled at them when you got angry.”

Kang Xing Luo, “Nope.”

Li Hong Ming, “……..”

Li Hong Ming choked on the words ‘just in case he holds a grudge’ and forcibly swallowed it back.

Kang Xing Luo retorted, “You spanked Bai Lai’s butt before, haven’t you.”

Li Hong Ming, “…….”

Li Hong Ming, “…….”

Li Hong Ming, “I didn’t! Go sleep!!”

The conversation stopped in the middle, Kang Xing Luo’s heart was in a complete mess, lying down to rest was indeed a good thing, two friends who had not seen each other for two years sharing a bed and using one blanket.

The night was silent, Kang Xing Luo opened his eyes, his mind incessantly replaying scenes after scenes after waking up, Tai Zi’s face was in front of him jumping here and there, then the scene stopped at a fierce-looking face.

That man, who was he again.

His brain gradually became befuddled, there was the sound of rustling from behind Kang Xing Luo, he felt someone touch his back, the hand touched him and quickly withdrew.

After a long time, Li Hong Ming said all of the sudden, “Doofus, I thought you were dead.”
