Chapter 4
Tom has a big appetite.
No, to be more precise,
Tom eats only when he feels full.
After eating the dried sea king meat that he had never eaten before, Tom’s hands and mouth couldn’t stop eating. It was not enough to finish the food on the table. Luo Lei also took out some pre-prepared food from the kitchen, wanting Tom to eat enough at once.
As a result,
Luo Lei still underestimated Tom’s wanton appetite.
He finished the food that would take him a week to finish in a whirlwind.
You know, with Luo Lei’s current physical fitness and strength, his appetite is still big, but it is far less than Tom’s appetite.
“Ordinary families really can’t afford to raise Tom and Jerry.”
After putting the last roast duck on the table, Luo Lei sighed and became more determined to let Tom eat military rations.
Anyway, the navy is rich, and having one more Tom is not a big deal.
Besides,
Tom is not eating and drinking for free, and he has to follow him to make progress in the navy!!
“”Burp!”
Finally, after finishing the last big chicken leg, Tom Cat burped very comfortably and threw away the chicken bone in his hand with a very elegant movement. He was so full.
He hadn’t eaten so happily and comfortably for a long time.
As he was thinking, a toothpick suddenly appeared in front of him.
Tom took it and started to pick the toothpick by himself.
“Um?”
“Wait a minute?”
“Where did the toothpicks come from?”
Suddenly,
Tom, who was picking his teeth, seemed to have thought of something.
He was startled and turned his head 180 degrees on the spot. He saw Luo Lei holding a small box of toothpicks in his hand.
“”Woo woo!!”
The next second,
Tom turned his head back and shed tears uncontrollably. His eyes were filled with emotion and disbelief. He was so happy.
As a cat that longed for happiness, he had never enjoyed the treatment of his owner preparing food and handing him toothpicks.
This time… he chose the right owner.
“Tom, do you have any cigars and matches?”
Looking at Tom who was so moved that he burst into tears,
Luo Lei’s mouth slightly curved up and he asked curiously,
“”Hmm!”
Tom nodded hurriedly, reached out and touched his back, and directly took out a cigar and a box of matches out of thin air, and walked in front of Luo Lei like offering treasures.
“Come!”
“Smoke it!”
Luo Lei reached out and took the cigar, put it in Tom Cat’s mouth, lit it with a match and said:”I’ll light it for you myself”
“” Huh!!”
Faced with Luo Lei’s action of lighting a cigarette, Tom, who was flattered, couldn’t help but take a big puff and exhaled a mouthful of white smoke. As the white smoke kept changing, it finally formed a line of words in the air,”Master, Tom is really so happy.”
Well!
Even Tom himself didn’t expect that the master would light a cigarette for him personally. This feeling was something he had never felt in his life. It was so comfortable and so happy.
“It’s okay!!”
Luo Lei rubbed Tom’s head and said with some surprise:”Didn’t I say I would give you a warm home?”
“”Huh!!”
After hearing this,
Tom reached out from his back and took out a brand new cigar. After handing it to Luo Lei, he exhaled a puff of white smoke, forming a line of words in the air,”Master, please smoke!”
As he said that,
Tom took out a match and made a gesture to light a cigarette for the boss.
“Good!!”
Luo Lei held the cigar in his mouth, waited for Tom to light it, took a tentative puff, and then exhaled a puff of white smoke like Tom.
Sure enough,
Tom’s cigar had a special effect.
The white smoke exhaled could be controlled by the smoker to change into different forms.
“Are You OK?
Luo Lei controlled the white smoke and asked Tom,
“0k!!”
Tom exhaled a puff of white smoke,
“Isn’t it nice?”
“Bashi!”
“Is it comfortable?”
“comfortable!!”
“Don’t call me master from now on, just call me boss!”
“no problem!!”
“Do you want a female cat?”
“think!”
“Okay… work hard and follow me, and I will help you find a few more mistresses in the future!”
“????”
Tom Cat gave Luo Lei a rather arrogant look, and the white smoke he exhaled turned into a few question marks.
The meaning was very simple, do you think I’m stupid??
“Hahaha!!”
Luo Lei chuckled, raised his eyebrows, and said:”Tom, you take a rest first and adapt to the environment. I have something for you to do next.”
“Hmm!”
Hearing this,
Tom’s eyes lit up and he became interested. He patted his chest confidently and said,”I… don’t need to adapt to any environment. Boss, just tell me what you have to say. Nothing can stop me.”
“All right!”
Luo Lei took a look at Tom who was eager to try, and knowing that he was a restless person, he said with some expectation:”I want you to prepare some strengthening potions for me that can enhance my strength. It would be best if the effect lasts longer and has no side effects!”
Yes!
This strengthening potion is the”rat poison” prepared by Tom.
After Jerry drank it, he was transformed into a muscular Jerry. His strength increased by hundreds of times, and he could blow up the alloy safe with one punch.
Now… Luo Lei just wants Tom to prepare some.
His requirements are not high. He doesn’t ask for hundreds of times, but several times, and the duration is longer than the original ten seconds. It will be enough to improve his strength.
“Enhanced version of the strengthening potion?”
Tom grinned, nodded confidently, and said,”Boss, I can try to study it, I shouldn’t let you down.”
Swish!
A sound of breaking through the air sounded, and
Tom Cat appeared in front of the red package he carried with him in a flash. He took out various bottles of chemical agents from the package, which were piled up there anyway, and soon entered the state of research.
Soon,
Tom seemed to have found the feeling of making rat poison for Jerry.
Especially when he saw that the prepared potion was too toxic and began to boil, corroding the plastic spoon, his expression became more and more presumptuous.
“Tom is Tom……”
Seeing that such a small red package actually contained so many things,
Luo Lei couldn’t help but sigh.
Anyway, he didn’t know where Tom got these things from. It was just like Doraemon’s treasure chest, unfathomable.
“We have just enough time, let’s sort out Tom Cat’s organization first.”
The next second,
Luo Lei took out the Den Mushi from his waist and dialed the Den Mushi of the Navy Headquarters-Tsuru.
That’s right, the Chief of Staff-Tsuru is responsible for the personnel transfer and record registration below the rank of Rear Admiral of the Navy Headquarters.
Now as a Rear Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, Luo Lei, if he wants to promote Tom Cat to Captain of the Navy Headquarters, he only needs to report to Tsuru and register it.
Under normal circumstances, it will be approved in seconds, because every high-ranking naval official has his own trusted subordinates.
It is not easy to promote a subordinate with himself as a guarantee.
As a Rear Admiral of the Navy, Luo Lei has never used this privilege.
Now he is promoting his trusted Tom Cat.
I believe Tsuru will not ask any more questions.
Bolubolu
……
“Hello, this is the Navy Headquarters, I’m the Chief of Staff – Tsuru!”
A few seconds later, the serious voice of Tsuru came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.
“Staff Officer He, I am Major General Luo Lei of the headquarters,”
Luo Lei said without any hesitation,”We are going to promote Tom to captain of the Navy Headquarters. Please register first.”
“Tom?”
After hearing this,
Staff Officer He paused for a moment, then said in surprise:”Luo Lei, is this the new navy you recruited in the West Sea?”
“That’s right!!”
Luo Lei nodded and added:”It’s my trusted subordinate.”
“Got it.”
On the other end of the Den Den Mushi,
Staff Officer Tsuru didn’t ask any more questions and said,”I’ll register him right away, and you just need to take a photo when we get back to the Navy Headquarters.”
A trusted subordinate, that means this navy man named Tom is tied to Luo Lei, and from now on, if there is any problem with Tom, it will be Luo Lei’s full responsibility. Staff Officer Tsuru believes that Luo Lei understands this and will not mess around with this matter, otherwise the consequences will be very serious.
“By the way,” Staff Officer Tsuru thought for a moment on the other end of the Den Den Mushi
, then said slowly:”We meant to let you go to the West Sea to rest for half a year, but…
half a year was up, and you didn’t come back; now…
more than two years have passed, and you can go back to the Navy Headquarters.
” Staff Officer Tsuru was still very optimistic about Luo Lei.
He was young, energetic, a very hardworking genius, often active in the forefront of the Navy’s maintenance of justice.
He was promoted to Rear Admiral of the Navy Headquarters at a young age.
In a word, as long as he followed the procedures, he would have a place in the future senior ranks of the Navy.
The only shortcoming was that he wanted to”progress” too much, and the”progressive justice” made the Navy’s senior ranks feel helpless.
Of course, for Staff Officer Tsuru,”progressive justice” was just”progressive justice”!
The justice of the three admirals of the Navy was different? Therefore, she really didn’t want to be punished because of a complaint from the Celestial Dragons.
Luo Lei, who was young and promising , became depressed and lost his mind in the West Sea.
As for Luo Lei not giving face to the Celestial Dragons , it was normal for Staff Officer He and others to believe that a 17-year-old admiral of the Navy Headquarters did not have a temper and arrogance.
Anyway, as he got older, saw more, experienced more, and was hit by the cruel reality, Luo Lei would definitely become more mature, not so impulsive, and learn to weigh the pros and cons.
Therefore, being sent to the West Sea to give an explanation to the Celestial Dragons was, in a sense, a training and motivation for Luo Lei.
“During this time, I will choose a good day to return to the Navy Headquarters.”
Luo Lei glanced at Tom who was preparing”rat poison”, and a slight arc appeared at the corner of his mouth. He said:”This time, after I return to the Navy Headquarters, I will not let you down, and strive to be promoted to the Navy’s substitute admiral in the shortest time!”
“good……”
Hearing that familiar tone of”progress”, Staff Officer Tsuru said in an encouraging tone:”You are full of drive, I believe you will become the youngest admiral in the navy!!”..
