Chapter 1490 Life or Death
Nie Yao smiled faintly and whispered, "I know. I'm not worried about this. I believe that if you do this, you will definitely be able to obtain the official procedures. However... I don't know whether Osiris is dead or alive after the manor was destroyed!"
"He can't escape!"
Li Jinxing held her hand and sneered as he replied, "Even if he's really lucky, he can't escape unscathed. Besides, even if we leave, there are still officials guarding there. They will continue to hunt him and his men down!"
"That's fine..." Nie Yao nodded, sighed softly, and said in a slightly confused tone, "Li Jinxing, I don't know whether I want him to be alive or dead!"
"Yaoyao?" Li Jinxing saw her complicated expression and didn't know what had changed her opinion of the criminal. He asked hesitantly, "You have to know that as long as he's alive, he'll definitely come back next time!"
"I know!" Nie Yao responded softly, looking up at Li Jinxing's eyes, and replied in a faint voice: "He has been locked up in the manor for the past few days. I know all the bad things he has done. He has hurt you more than once. He is a disaster when he is alive. But he is the only one who knows how to open the secret room in the underground palace. If he died, perhaps we would need to spend more time exploring..."
When she said this, a self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of her lips: "Li Jinxing, I'm sorry, I actually relied on a tomb robber to help me. I think I have lost the original intention of archaeology!"
Seeing Nie Yao's face full of remorse, Li Jinxing quickly stroked her face and whispered comfortingly: "Yaoyao, you don't need to apologize. You haven't let anyone down. I know you really want to open that secret room, but he may not really know. Maybe he is just lying to you!"
"He didn't lie to me..." Nie Yao answered firmly.
Li Jinxing looked at her gravely. Although he was somewhat puzzled, he was unwilling to doubt anything. He just asked patiently, "Yaoyao, what did he do to make you trust him so much?"
"He didn't do anything, he just has some mental problems!"
Nie Yao pointed to her head and explained in a low voice, "You probably wouldn't have guessed it, but he claimed to be Osiris, the god of the underworld. He actually mistook me for the reincarnation of Isis, the wife of Osiris, the god of the underworld in ancient Egyptian mythology!"
When Li Jinxing heard this, a flash of surprise flashed across his eyes, and he subconsciously hugged her tightly: "Yaoyao, are you saying that he treats you as his wife? Did he do anything to you?"
His face was filled with nervousness. Nie Yao burst into laughter, shook her head, and replied, "Of course not, I wouldn't let him do anything! Seeing that he was acting crazy, I pretended to be nice to him. So, to get the information out of him and open the secret room, we have to wait until the blue moon!"
She paused here, sighed softly, and said, "In fact, if you hadn't come to rescue me, I was planning to trick him into taking me out of the manor and heading to the archaeological site in Egypt to open the secret room together, and then send him to prison!"
But now Li Jinxing suddenly came to save her personally, which also made her avoid staying here any longer, constantly worrying that Osiris would get sick and attack her...
"Yaoyao, this is too dangerous!" Li Jinxing sighed softly, kissed her on the face, and said with some fear: "He actually had such an illusion. Fortunately, I came not too late, otherwise..."
He paused here.
