Chapter 110: Aftermath
After everything was talked out, the brother and sister did not reconcile in the end, but they both promised Li Muhan and Cen Lin that they would not fight again.
"We apologize for the damage we caused..."
Hypnos stood with his hands behind his back and his head lowered, as if he had only just realized how much trouble he had caused to the country's Special Management Bureau.
"As long as you two stop fighting, everything will be fine."
Cen Lin smiled and took out the communicator.
"Anyway, let's go out first. It's been all night, and the engineering team should have repaired the locator."
But the moment the communicator was connected, Mo Qiao's dissatisfied voice came from the other end.
"If you don't want to come out, you'll die in there forever!"
"ah?"
Li Muhan and Cen Lin stared at each other, completely unaware of what was going on.
It turned out that although Mo Qiao said that he would let them stay for a day, he actually immediately took the toolbox and worked overtime alone to repair the locator.
But just as it was opened to let the people inside out, the locator was immediately broken by a violent impact.
Li Muhan and Cen Lin were dumbfounded and asked what to do now.
"What should we do? Just wait patiently for the engineering team to come back from their leave and fix it for you!"
After saying that, the communicator hung up.
At this time, the world was almost collapsing, and now the few of them seemed to be on a very small isolated island.
And now even Jinwu’s home was gone, so the few of them could only wait until dawn.
Finally, when the door opened before their eyes, Li Muhan and Cen Lin both cried. They both deeply understood the feeling of being a wanderer.
Mo Qiao was not as cruel as she said. After hanging up the phone, she urgently recalled five engineers to work overtime with her to repair the locator.
When leaving that world, Cen Lin and Li Muhan both wanted to thank Mo Qiao, but they didn't see her.
"Our minister has gone back to rest. Sigh, you two are really capable of working hard. This is the first time I've seen the minister so tired."
Li Muhan felt guilty and decided to go to Mo Qiao to apologize properly.
When we left that world, the combat members of our headquarters were already waiting outside.
The team leader was Yan Yu, the executive director of the Supervisory Council who had previously questioned Huo Tian at the conference.
"Wait a minute, they won't do it casually anymore."
"I can guarantee that."
Li Muhan and Cen Lin both protected the two gods.
"Excuse me, gentlemen. This is an order from the Overwatch Council. The two gods destroyed important facilities of the Special Management Bureau and nearly caused a devastating earthquake in Tianhai City. According to the regulations of the Special Management Bureau, Hypnos and Thanatos will be detained. Further action will be taken pending further notice from higher-ups."
"I am also responsible for this matter, so..."
Li Muhan wanted to explain something, but was glared at by Yan Yu.
"Don't take advantage of the attention of the director and deputy director to act recklessly. The Special Management Bureau also has its own system."
The aura displayed by Yan Yu at this moment was not the overbearing one at the meeting, but more majestic.
This made Li Muhan truly realize how terrifying the law enforcers of the Special Management Bureau were.
"Captain Li, she is indeed right..."
Cen Lin sighed and said no more.
Finally, Thanatos took a few steps forward.
"Don't worry, we won't resist."
Hypnos snorted coldly and followed Thanatos.
Just when several members of the Supervisory Council's law enforcement team were about to put restraints on the two gods, Yan Yu suddenly waved his hand.
"No need, just take them away like this."
When leaving for the last time, Yan Yu gave Li Muhan a cold look.
"The Overwatch Council will keep an eye on you, and so will I, the Devil's Agent."
Afterwards, Li Muhan and Cen Lin took Jin Wu, whose eyes were swollen from crying, back to the second underground floor. Lin Ze met with several people in the small conference room. After hearing the whole story, she was silent at first, and then smiled with relief.
"I see. The way you handled it, I have to say, was quite bold."
Li Muhan swallowed his saliva. He knew that he might be in trouble this time. Originally, the easiest solution was to separate the two gods, but because of Li Muhan's presumptuous decision, things became complicated.
"It's impossible to establish another world in such a short time. As for the treatment of the two gods..."
Lin Ze sighed.
"Their future may not be so good."
Li Muhan lowered his head, as if realizing that he had done something wrong.
"What do you think, Chief Cen?"
Lin Ze looked at Cen Lin.
Cen Lin pinched his goatee at this time, pondered for a moment and said with a smile.
"I think Captain Li's approach is the only way to truly resolve this issue once and for all. After all, there's no guarantee the two gods won't meet again. As long as they're still on Chinese soil, a fight would cause immeasurable losses. At least for now, we don't have to worry about this issue."
Lin Ze's expression relaxed a little and she nodded.
As for the Golden Crow.
Lin Ze was shocked when he heard that Li Muhan promised Jin Wu a villa and a big bathtub.
She originally wanted to refuse, but after seeing Jinwu's expectant eyes, she could only smile helplessly and said while touching little Jinwu's head with her hand.
"I will do my best to prepare comfortable accommodation for you. You have made great efforts in this incident."
In the end, the matter ended like this. Li Muhan did not see the two gods again when he left the Special Management Bureau. Dragging his very tired body, Li Muhan returned home. As soon as he opened the door, he smelled the fragrance of food. He even stepped back to look at the house number to confirm that it was correct.
He twitched his nose. There shouldn't be anyone else at home, so the person cooking could only be...
"Is the mission over?"
Xia Yue emerged from the kitchen, her hair disheveled and her face covered in dust, looking somewhat disheveled.
Li Muhan knew without hesitation that she was cooking.
Even though I'm not good at it, I'm still willing to try for myself...
A warm feeling rose from Li Muhan's heart, and this time the smell coming from the kitchen was not as bad as last time. It even smelled appetizing.
"Well, it's over."
Li Muhan walked over and hugged Xia Yue in his arms without waiting for her to speak. Xia Yue did not say anything, but just hugged him back silently, giving him silent comfort.
"Xia Yue, life is so fragile..."
Li Muhan bent down, buried his head in the girl's shoulder, and spoke sullenly. He could smell the aroma of shampoo on the ends of Xia Yue's hair, mixed with a faint smell of burning.
This feeling made Li Muhan feel at ease, and he held the girl's hands tighter and tighter.
It seems that if I let go, the life before my eyes will slip away from my fingers.
"Although I don't know what you encountered during this mission..."
Xia Yue gently stroked Li Muhan's back with her hand, as if she was coaxing a child.
"But we both have a long life ahead of us. I will do my best to protect you."
"Um."
"...I will too, Xia Yue. I will also do my best to protect you."
"We still have many, many years to be together."
…………
After serving dish after dish to the table, Xia Yue spoke with the same uneasy expression as before.
"I...I practiced for a bit and even had Su Xue give me some video guidance. It should be better than last time, but if it doesn't taste good, don't force it. Don't get an upset stomach."
Looking at the food on the table, Li Muhan was deeply moved. At least it was no longer burnt like before.
I put it in my mouth and tasted it. It didn’t taste delicious, but it was definitely not bad.
"How, how is it..."
Looking at the girl's uneasy expression, Li Muhan chewed the food in his mouth with a deliberately serious expression.
"Spit it out quickly... I know it doesn't taste good..."
But just as Xia Yue was hurriedly bringing water to Li Muhan, he quickly swallowed the food and gave Xia Yue a big smile.
"You're kidding! This one is super delicious."
After hearing Li Muhan's words, Xia Yue breathed a sigh of relief, then glared at Li Muhan lightly.
"Don't comfort me, I tasted it myself today."
"Hey, that, that's probably because vampires have different tastes. It's really delicious, much better than that super expensive restaurant we had before."
As if to prove his point, Li Muhan, for the first time ever, ordered more rice several times, finishing everything on the table until he was completely stuffed. But as Xia Yue's eyes gradually brightened and her lips curled up slightly, he consoled himself: a real man, what's wrong with making a little sacrifice to please the little vampire?
After washing the dishes, Li Muhan went out to buy Xia Yue her favorite dessert and took a walk to digest the food. However, Xia Yue did not go out with Li Muhan because her TV series was about to start.
"I really need to tell Chi Yuan to stop recommending those melodramatic romance dramas to Xia Yue."
Carrying a box of dessert, Li Muhan was on his way home.
However, just as he passed by a man and a woman, he suddenly felt a throbbing in his heart, and then the time around him seemed to freeze, and everything became silent.
At this moment, Li Muhan suddenly realized the current situation.
He was in someone's realm.
