Chapter 76

◎As long as you don't kill him, everything else is fine (Part 2)◎

When they heard that the painted horse had been stabbed, several demon gods immediately stood up and got off the car.

To be honest, Lian Jiu is not afraid of encountering bad guys now. After all, the power of the demons and gods around him cannot be underestimated.

She also stood up and turned to the human teachers, saying, "Take good care of the children and don't open the car windows."

Wei Jingxuan and the others nodded immediately.

Lin Qi got off the car first. At that time, Hua Ma was holding a thin man in his hand, and the man was holding a small box of nails as long as his finger.

Hua Ma, who had kindly gotten off the car to help, was both hurt and angry: "Explain it to me clearly! Why are you repaying kindness with enmity?"

The man who was grabbed didn't expect Hua Ma to be so strong, and he was completely hanging. "Nonsense! You were pushing the cart over there, how could I possibly prick your foot?"

"You're still trying to quibble?" Hua Ma pointed at the nail in his hand. "You're caught red-handed, and you're still quibbling! How can you be so dishonest!"

"This...this..." The man was surprised to see that his punctured tire was fine, but this gave him a chance to deny it. "This fell off while I was fixing the car just now, and I just picked it up."

The painted horses in Nanyu Mountain rarely come out and have little contact with humans. I didn't know there were such shameless people. I was so angry that I couldn't speak clearly: "You!"

"Alright." Lian Jiu walked forward and said to Jiang An, "An An, first check on the painted horse's feet."

"good!"

Jiang An walked over and pulled the painted horse aside, and saw that its hooves were pierced by nails.

The man was put down and was about to run away, but he tripped over a rock and fell to the ground. Lin Qi walked over and put his hand on his neck: "Why are you running? Don't you want to explain?"

"I don't know what you're talking about," the man said. "I really only came here to pick up nails. I didn't do anything else. If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself."

"You still want to see?" Henshui walked over and said, "It's written all over your face what you're going to do, you bastard with bad intentions."

Seeing this, the people pushing the carts in front also came over and said, "What are you doing? Let our friend go!"

Lian Jiu took out his work ID and said, "Before that, you need to explain why you used nails to pierce our car."

Several people stiffened their necks and refused to admit anything, especially the one who was being pressed down. He shouted, "Do you have any evidence?! Go check your tires!"

The painted horse, who had taken off his shoes and sat on the ground, angrily said, "You still need evidence? Aren't my feet evidence?"

Others: “…”

What the hell are you doing here? You're blaming us for your foot bleeding for no apparent reason?!

"Slander!" the pinned man pointed at the painted horse and said confidently, "Aren't you a police officer? I'm going to call the police and sue him for slander!"

"You don't admit it, right?" Lian Jiu raised his head. "Then we can only check the surveillance."

Those people sneered and said, "There's no surveillance in this desolate mountain area!"

"Of course it's the surveillance cameras in our car," Lian Jiu said. "Because we have to be responsible for the children, our car is equipped with surveillance cameras at all angles, even underneath it."

These people looked suspicious.

Lian Jiu continued, "You must all know how we got here. Even the airport had to clear the way for us. The child in the car must be very important. Will the Municipal Bureau take no measures at all?"

She approached the men and said slowly, "Or you can wait and see. I'll take you back to the police station now and see if they'll convict you."

The people in front looked at each other, somewhat hesitant.

At this moment, the car that had "broken down" suddenly started moving and rushed straight towards them. Someone sitting in the driver's seat shouted loudly: "Get in the car!"

The two people who were originally standing suddenly ran away, opened the car door and jumped in.

"Director!" Henshui pulled Lianjiu away.

Lin Qi didn't expect these people to be so reckless. The painted horse was sitting there with its leg injured. He immediately turned around and pushed away the carriage that the painted horse had transformed into.

The man who was pinned to the ground finally had the chance to escape. He crawled and grabbed his companion's hand and jumped into the car together.

On the narrow and crowded road, the car just brushed past the bus, making a harsh sound, and quickly rushed to the back. It seemed that it had stepped on the accelerator directly and turned and ran away in almost the blink of an eye.

Hua Ma covered his stomach and said, "I will definitely kill you!!!"

Jiang An took a painkilling pill and stuffed it into his mouth: "Don't worry, we will get it back to him right away!"

Lin Qi frowned and took out two pieces of paper from his pocket.

Surprisingly, there were two unused painted horses, one for carrying the children and teachers in the car, and one for myself.

The horse in the painting turned into a motorcycle. Lin Qi rode on it and said coldly, "Chase!"

Lian Jiu hurriedly said, "I'll go too. Human laws have many restrictions."

Lin Qi doesn't quite understand human laws, and it would be bad if he got himself involved.

Lin Qi was a little hesitant. If anything happened to the director, Si Lan would tear him to pieces, wouldn't he?

But what the principal said makes sense.

No, I am a demon god, and I can’t protect the director?

Lin Qi nodded: "Okay, come up."

Lian Jiu immediately got on the carriage, grabbed his clothes, and turned to the new painted horse and said, "First, take the children back to Nanyu Mountain and heal the injured painted horse."

Lin Qi looked at the hand on his waist and trembled.

Si Lan had better not discover what was happening here, otherwise he would be torn to pieces. He instructed, "Please sit down."

On the other side, several people who were fleeing in their cars looked back and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that no one was catching up with them.

"They don't really have surveillance, do they?" the person in the back seat said. "What if they recognize me?"

"No," said the man who had driven the nail, "I saw everything before I did anything. She's just trying to trick you. Oh, and ask Wang Hui."

This Wang Hui is the one who was staking out at the airport before.

As soon as the call went through, Wang Hui, upon learning of the incident, cursed the person who had done nothing but harm. "I've seen that car before. It's not a new model. Many of its equipment is outdated, and its tires are the worst. How could it have so many surveillance cameras?"

Strangely enough, he took advantage of the fact that several people from Lianjiu went into the airport to pick someone up and check on him.

There was only a driver sitting in the car. Looking at the furnishings inside, it was much simpler than that of an ordinary bus, and there were not even any shelves.

I don’t know why she, since she has such great power, still uses this kind of low-class bus to pick people up.

Hearing Wang Hui say this, the people in the car immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Hui had a bad feeling and said dissatisfiedly, "Aren't you usually very clean? What happened this time?"

Wang Hui is one of the owners of the factory that was rectified and investigated. The other people and he all invested money together to set up the factory. They were all rich second-generations who were fearless since they were in school, and they had no scruples when they grew up.

These people will do anything for money. They have some background behind them and often exploit the people under them for money.

When we were setting up that factory, some residents around us disagreed and were threatened many times by thugs they arranged.

Later, the factory opened and the sewage was discharged into the river. If anyone found out and wanted to report it, they would either pay them some money to keep them quiet or use their power to suppress them. If there were still those who disobeyed, they would arrange for someone to deal with them.

This time I ran into a tough guy.

With just one sentence, even the backgrounds of these people were lost. The factory was ordered to close, and they fell to the bottom in an instant. Although they arranged for people to take the blame and be investigated, they were also burdened with huge debts.

How could they bear to suffer such a great loss?

A few people had originally inquired about it and found out that there was a special department in the Hai City Bureau, where Lin Qi and Shu Henshui were working on a temporary basis.

But they rarely appear in the municipal police station and have never taken on any cases.

Even the person behind them said that Lin Qi and Shu Henshui had no say over them.

That's why they are so arrogant.

But now these Lian Jiu and Si Lan suddenly appeared, and I have never heard of these two characters.

They are obviously from other provinces and cities, but now they are interfering in Hai City.

The swords of other dynasties cannot kill the officials of this dynasty, but these two people's hands are quite long.

Naturally, these people would not allow them to be so powerful.

How is it possible that such a big business of mine is gone just like that?!

The man who had driven the nails into the tire was surnamed Sun. He felt unlucky whenever he thought about what happened today. "This is weird! I stuck several nails into the tire, but the tire is completely fine. I used all my strength to pull them out, but there's no trace left."

Young Master Sun spat, "That driver even rushed up to me and said I stabbed his foot. I was a million miles away from him, how could I have stabbed his foot?!"

"Yes." The other person pushing the cart said, "He was fine at first, even talking to us, but suddenly he held his foot and said someone stabbed him, and his foot was bleeding. We immediately pulled Young Master Sun out as soon as we got back, otherwise they wouldn't have discovered this."

This is really strange.

Could it be possible that if it pierces the car, it will hurt the driver?

He was so far away and had sent his men away, so how did he run back and accurately capture Young Master Sun?

Wang Hui suppressed his anxiety and said, "Anyway, be careful. Has he escaped yet?"

"Don't worry, their car can't turn around there, and the driver's foot is injured. We've also taken another detour. It's impossible for them to catch up with us."

That was barely okay: "Apart from the tires, have you done anything else?"

"I did it," Young Master Sun said proudly. "After all these years, how could I have just a punctured tire? Even if the driver drove with his injured foot, he wouldn't be able to get far."

"But..." Another man frowned. "I checked this road. It's a deserted road. It doesn't intersect with other roads. It leads straight to the sea. There are also many cliffs on the road. How could they go this way?"

Young Master Sun said, "Isn't it said that Nanyu Mountain is an isolated village? That's normal."

He said viciously, "It would be best if we just stepped on the accelerator and rushed into the sea, crying out to heaven and earth for help but no one would answer."

A few of them smiled at each other, as if they had already anticipated the consequences of the next bus.

On the other end of the phone, Wang Hui said, "I'll be at the location you sent me soon. Let's meet up. Forget about your car. Let's burn it down. The flights have already been booked. Let's go abroad for a while and come back after the storm has died down."

This was their original plan.

Anyway, if you don't let me live well, I won't let you live well either.

It depends on who can beat whom.

A few minutes later, the two cars collided.

As planned, they quickly changed cars, poured the gasoline they had prepared long ago on the abandoned car, lit it with a lighter, threw it away, and drove away.

Just as they drove a distance away, happily preparing to welcome their new life.

A motorcycle suddenly jumped out from the grass on the side of the road.

Several people were so scared that they hurriedly stepped on the brakes. Wang Hui, who was driving, stuck his head out and cursed without thinking: "How are you riding a bike? Are you trying to kill yourself..."

The rest of the words died in his throat when he saw the person getting off the motorcycle.

"Fuck!" The rest of the people also saw it clearly, "How did she do that?!"

The man in front looked unfamiliar, as if he was Lin Qi from the Municipal Bureau, but the man behind him was so familiar, wasn't he the Lian Jiu who made them hate him so much?

"The two of them." Young Master Sun was so frightened that he took out the saber he carried with him. "That Lian Jiu looks so weak and timid. What are you afraid of?"

Wang Hui: "Isn't this an assault on police officers?"

Young Master Sun scolded him for being a coward: "There are over a hundred people in that car moving, and you're still afraid of attacking the police?"

It seems so.

"Don't get out of the car." Wang Hui still felt uneasy. He felt uneasy just looking at Lin Qi. "Fasten your seatbelts. I'll rush over."

The others thought the same thing. Since Lian Jiu had already gotten out of the car, it would be better to just run over her. "Hit Lian Jiu! She's done us this bad, so she won't survive!"

So Wang Hui calmed himself down and stepped on the accelerator.

Seeing that he was about to rush towards Lian Jiu who was standing next to the motorcycle, Lin Qi frowned and shouted, "Draw a horse!"

The motorcycle suddenly spun its tail and ran away.

Lian Jiu was also pulled to the other side by Lin Qi.

The car rushed out in an instant, and several people stared at the motorcycle that was running away in amazement: "Did I see it wrong?!"

"The car is broken!"

"It's really a bit weird."

"Don't stop!" The more bizarre it was, the more they dared not stop. Young Master Sun grabbed the steering wheel and said, "Go ahead, don't stop!"

Wang Hui gritted his teeth and nodded.

But the next moment, the hood of the car was smashed to pieces by something falling from the sky.

The glass of the car's front window was shattered into pieces. Wang Hui and Sun Ershao, who were sitting in the driver's seat and the passenger seat, subconsciously closed their eyes. Their upper bodies were covered with scars from the broken glass.

The car seemed to have encountered some resistance and stopped, leaving only the sharp roaring sound of the tires rubbing against the ground and the pungent smell of gasoline.

Wang Hui protected his eyes: "What is that!"

"Someone..." The two people sitting in the back looked ahead tremblingly and said, "It's a person..."

Wang Hui endured the pain and opened his eyes and looked up: "Who is it..."

In the thick smoke coming out of the front, he saw a person half-crouching on the broken engine hood, and Wang Hui was speechless.

He knew this person, who had the same identity as Lian Jiu and went in and out with him - Si Lan.

How did he get here?! Where did he fall from?!

Si Lan slowly straightened up, got out of the car, picked up a piece of broken glass and played with it in his hand, then slowly raised his eyelids: "Who said, 'Don't even think about living for a long time'?"

They were all so frightened that they couldn't speak at all.

Si Lan's dark eyes swept over them one by one. His gaze hardened, and Wang Hui, who was sitting in the driver's seat, suddenly flew out of the empty front window and fell to the ground. Si Lan looked down at him: "Did you say that?"

Is this person a human being?

Wang Hui's voice broke, and he crawled back in fear: "No no no!!!"

He felt that Si Lan was looking at him as if he were a dead person, and he was not joking.

In a critical situation, he quickly pointed at the pale-faced Sun Second Young Master in the passenger seat: "He! He said that!"

Si Lan turned his head and saw that the man was holding a small knife in his hand. He sneered, and anyone could hear the disdain in his voice.

Young Master Sun was so frightened that he stood frozen in place. Before he could react, he was suddenly lifted into the air like Wang Hui.

Being hit hard in front of Si Lan, his mind went blank: "What do you want to do!"

Si Lan squatted down and gently tapped his knife with the piece of glass he picked up. The knife shattered and even turned into iron foam.

Young Master Sun's eyes were filled with fear and horror, his voice trembling: "Who the hell are you?! Don't come over here!"

The piece of glass that instantly broke the knife into pieces cut Sun Ershao's hand, then fell to his neck and finally to his chest.

Wherever he went, a bloody mark was left on his body.

It wasn't deep, but blood still flowed out, making him feel cold all over.

Si Lan pointed at his chest and asked, "Who are you trying to kill?"

This guy is in uniform, isn't he a police officer? How come he's even scarier than me?!

The survival instinct made Sun Ershao cry and shout: "I was wrong! I'm sorry! I talked nonsense!"

Lian Jiu also ran up with Lin Qi at this time. Seeing Si Lan squatting there fine, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Si Lan, are you okay?"

The others who were so scared that they peed their pants: "???"

Auntie, can you please take a look at who is in trouble!!!

Lian Jiu saw with his own eyes Si Lan flying through the air and crashing into the car, and his heart trembled with fear.

Although Lin Qi said that he would be fine, she still felt worried when she thought about it.

Si Lan lowered his head: "It's okay."

"Si Lan." Lin Qi knew his temper well and reminded him, "Calm down."

Lian Jiu saw Si Lan holding a piece of glass in his hand and placing it on the man's chest. The meridians and blood vessels on the back of his hand were clearly visible, and it was obvious that he was enduring something. So he squatted down and held his wrist.

Si Lan's eyelashes trembled.

He let Lian Jiu take the glass fragments in his hand and throw them away.

Lian Jiu pulled him up and was stunned when he saw the darkness and murderous intent in his eyes.

Si Lan turned his head away.

But Lian Jiu didn't say anything more. Instead, he lowered his eyes to look at the two people crying and frightened on the ground, and asked, "Can you speak now?"

The two men were trembling.

Si Lan sneered, and the other two people sitting in the car were thrown out one after another.

This can't be explained by common sense at all!

Lian Jiu once again took out his ID: "Now look, who do you think can save you?"

When they looked at each other, they found that among the three "people" present, it seemed that only Lian Jiu looked relatively normal and seemed to have that ability.

Going to jail is better than being killed by a ghost!

"Director Lianjiu!" Wang Hui stuttered and crawled over to hug her thighs.

But Si Lan frowned and kicked it away: "Don't touch it."

Lian Jiu also took a step back and stood beside Si Lan: "That's what I said."

Wang Hui huddled beside the car, huddling tightly with a few of his accomplices. "We're the owners of the factory you reported for directly discharging sewage."

Everything was made clear in one sentence. Lian Jiu had no intention of interrogating them in the wilderness, and he was not a professional policeman. All these had to be left to the people in the Municipal Bureau. His only responsibility here was to break down their psychological defenses.

Lian Jiu asked, "Are there any other accomplices?"

“No, no!”

"No?" Lian Jiu knew these factories well enough that they wouldn't dare act so arrogantly without backing. "You have such a large industry, yet you've done so many bad things behind the scenes. Don't you think there's anyone keeping an eye on you?"

Several people avoided her gaze.

"Forget it." Si Lan said calmly, "If he's dead, he's dead. Let's burn him with the car."

As he said that, he picked up a person in the air and moved towards the car they had burned before at a very fast speed.

The man was so frightened that he screamed in the air: "I say! I say! Yes! We do have someone in the bureau!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the man fell from the air to the ground.

Si Lan glanced at the remaining people one by one: "Anything else to say?"

"Oh, right." Lian Jiu took out his other work ID, which he had just obtained a few days ago, and his new identity as the chairman of the Monster Committee.

She opened the contents and showed them to them. Although they were a little confused about the Monster Committee, they were immediately disheartened when they saw the big red seal.

Wait a minute? Monster?

So these are the special abilities of demons?! So this is why those places are so special?!

How can a human fight a demon? How can they win?

Lian Jiu was not afraid that they would find out, because these people would be sent to the police station anyway.

Moreover, their behavior was much worse than that of the people in the vegetable greenhouses before.

Two demon worlds, so many demon gods, children, and even teachers from the human world, so many lives, have seriously violated the terms of peaceful coexistence between the human world and the demon world.

This incident also serves as a reminder to humans that they cannot always control the demon world.

There are many people in the human world who are more evil and hateful than the monsters in the demon world.

Moreover, this incident can make the human side feel guilty, and more benefits can be gained in the future.

In short, no matter whether it is the demon world or the human world, they will not let them go.

Lian Jiu laughed and said, "Do you think Nanyu Mountain and Fuyu Mountain are just simple little villages? Then why are there so many people protecting them?"

Those people have realized how unforgivable what they have done this time.

Lian Jiu lowered his eyes and looked at them, his smile gradually fading. He put away his ID and said, "So no one can protect you without Si Lan and me, no matter what position you hold. Do you understand?"

Forget about the demon world or the human world, just based on the stamp on that little notebook, no one dared to touch it.

The four of them realized that the situation was hopeless and there was nothing left to hide.

At this moment, Yuan Qing flew over from a distance, breathless. He glared at the people on the ground and cursed them profusely: "The children were delivered safely, and these people even tampered with the road. If a normal car had taken that road, it would have definitely fallen into the sea due to the road conditions."

Lian Jiu's expression turned cold: "It seems that the blow was not strong enough."

Lin Qi looked at her in surprise.

He originally thought that the director stopped Si Lan because he had the nature of a saint and could not bear to hurt any life.

But it doesn’t seem to be the case?

"The laws of the demon world haven't been perfected yet, so no one can control them for now." Lian Jiu took a few steps back, looking thoughtful. "Don't kill him, and everything else will be easy."

Several people lying on the ground who thought they were rescued: "???"

Didn’t we agree that as long as we tell them everything, we can protect them?

But Lian Jiu had obviously walked to the back, indicating that he would no longer care. Yuan Qing rolled up his sleeves and started to work: "I chased after you specifically to deal with you, a bunch of bastards, do you still deserve to be human?"

Lin Qi was also very angry.

It was clearly a normal autumn outing, and the kids from Fuyu Mountain came here happily, but it was disrupted by these people.

So Lin Qi and Yuan Qing grabbed two people respectively and beat one with each hand without any delay.

Lian Jiu was on the phone with the local municipal bureau, and these people had to be taken there for re-interrogation.

After she finished the call, she turned around and saw Si Lan standing silently beside her, his ears drooping, seeming a little wilted.

Lian Jiu looked him up and down, then pulled up the hand that had held the glass fragments.

Si Lan's fingertips moved slightly, but he did not struggle.

Seeing that his palms were intact, Lian Jiu put his hands down and said, "If you are not happy, you can also fight with them."

Si Lan was quiet for a few seconds and asked, "Are you not angry?"

"Angry?" Lian Jiu was puzzled. "If I'm angry, I'm angry at those bad guys. Why should I be angry at you?"

Si Lan didn't say anything, seeming to be avoiding the question.

Lian Jiu suddenly remembered that he had been avoiding her gaze since he got up. She raised her eyes and asked softly, "Si Lan, what are you worried about?"

Si Lan remained silent.

Lian Jiu asked, "Are you avoiding me?"

Si Lan immediately denied it, twitching his ears twice: "No!"

He looked into Lian Jiu's eyes, his throat dry. "If I had really just..."

Before he could finish the rest of his words, Lian Jiu understood: "Don't you have any?"

Si Lan thought to himself: That’s because you held my hand.

He was afraid that she would discover that side of his heart.

"Not just you, I want it too." Lian Jiu said, "They can't compare to the many monsters and human lives in our demon world."

"You want to, too?"

"But we live in a society ruled by law now." Lian Jiu laughed. "If we let ourselves go, wouldn't we be the same as them? There will be laws to punish them, and they will be punished severely, not lightly."

But Lian Jiu could probably guess what Si Lan was thinking.

He seemed very worried that he would discover the bad side of his heart.

She whispered, "Si Lan, you once told me that you weren't a demon god before, you were a vicious beast."

"……Um."

Lian Jiu turned around to face him, raised his head and looked into his eyes: "I have the ability to judge, and I also know that everyone has two sides. I knew what kind of demon you were from the beginning. I was able to get along with you for such a long time because I know your character and accept it, no matter which side it is."

Si Lan was stunned.

Lian Jiu said gently, "So I won't have any rejection of you just because I see your other side."

She said, "Don't worry."

Si Lan thought that when she first saw him, she wanted him to turn into a good monster and influence him.

But now I find that this doesn’t seem to be the case.

He whispered, "If you met my original self, what would you do?"

At first?

Lian Jiu heard from other demon gods that at that time he thought he was the source of the disaster and was even unwilling to accept himself.

She thought for a moment and said, "Not much."

After a pause, Lian Jiu chuckled: "But I hope you can treat yourself well."

Si Lan's heart began to beat wildly again.

The ears started wiggling wildly.

Lian Jiu, now figuring out the pattern of his ears, raised an eyebrow, "You seem very happy."

"Yeah." Si Lan finally smiled, "Very happy."

The author has something to say:

Qilin and Bifang: ...Hi? Is anyone here to speak up for us?
