Through the Mirror
Doesn’t the aroma of food refer to people?!
Someone came up, Xia Yi raised his hand and picked up Xiangjiu, who came down obediently, but immediately "Meow meow meow!" Xiangjiu seemed to realize something and started to scream angrily at the top of his throat, and hurried footsteps were heard outside the door.
"Are these the monsters that the servant mentioned last night?" Among the policemen running outside was the policeman who helped take their statements last night. "They are indeed monsters... I have been a policeman for so many years, and I have never seen such an exaggerated bloody case." The policeman's voice choked as he spoke. "If I hadn't thought this was an opportunity to get promoted and make money, I would have instigated you to come here, and you wouldn't have been injured... Damn it!" The policeman felt guilty and gritted his teeth.
"It's not your fault. Who could have imagined there would be monsters, and so many of them? I've already notified the police, and they'll send someone over soon," another person said. "Not only that, I also called the provincial police station. I know a lot of people there, and someone should be here soon! Ge, hold on a little longer!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" As the police were speaking, huge footsteps sounded behind them.
Xia Yi opened the door and looked outside.
There were three policemen in total, one of them had most of his arm cut off, and the wound soaked his entire police uniform. He walked in the middle, supported by two policemen beside him. The three of them ran very fast, but still could not catch up with the speed of the mirror elf. The scales of the mirror elf walking in front were already covered with blood.
"Huff! Huff!" The three policemen ran frantically along the west corridor on the second floor.
But this is a dead end. There is no other way except a small hall. Next to the small hall is the mirror room where Xia Yi stays.
The police were about to be caught up by the mirror elf, and the heavy footsteps picked up speed again.
Xia Yi opened the door of the mirror room on their side.
In a panic, the police rushed to the mirror room. Just as they were about to close the door, Xia Yi behind the door made eye contact with the three policemen.
The policemen's expressions and eyes were filled with self-doubt at their bad luck. The two uninjured policemen quickly drew their batons and waved them to try to push Xia Yi out of the door. Xia Yi hugged Xiang Jiu to avoid the batons and squeezed the three policemen into the house. She then quickly squeezed out of the door frame and closed the door behind her.
The police locked the door: “…” He couldn’t tell what was wrong.
As soon as Xia Yi went out, she was met by the mirror elves who were pushing towards her. A large number of monsters were reflecting the light, as bright as high-power light bulbs, pressing against her.
Xia Yi put Xiang Jiu down, raised his hand to grab the mirror elf's hand that was smashing the door, inserted his foot into the mirror elf's mouth, and knocked it down.
Xia Yi quickly knocked down five or six people.
After removing the scales of the mirror elf, not only did he become taller, but his strength also increased. When fighting against the mirror elf, he could easily knock it down.
Judging from the figures of the mirror elves, the entire corridor was not spacious. After the first few fell down, the mirror elves were pressed down by the ones in front like dominoes.
"Xia Yi? Where is this?" Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded in Xia Yi's mind.
Xia Yi quickly turned his head to look over.
Xiang Jiu stood by and slowly shrank back to his original size. The scales on his body gradually faded until they disappeared.
The large group of mirror elves in front of him slowly disappeared, revealing the human form in front of him.
Xia Yi also turned back into a human.
"Where is this? Hey, Brother Zhou, why are you here too?"
"Master, get up quickly!"
"Who are you? Did you bring us here?" The people from the Jing family familiarized themselves with the situation and found that everyone around them was familiar, except for a little girl whom they had never seen before. They couldn't help but look at her, and their tone sounded not so good in panic.
Xia Yi looked away.
Before he could say anything, someone on the other side said sharply, "Why are you looking away? Are you feeling guilty? What's your purpose?"
Xia Yi pursed his lips, his expression immediately turned cold, he turned around and kicked open the door of the police's room.
"It's you?" The policeman recognized Xia Yi and put away his gun. "Has the monster outside gone?" The policeman walked out of the room and asked in surprise, "With so many people here, are you all hiding in this room?"
"Is the monster gone?" He glanced around and squinted his eyes. "You're not from the Xia family? Who are you?"
The butler came out quickly and described their current situation in detail: "We are from the Jing family in the west. I suspect that our family has experienced a kidnapping. As you know, several people in our family have committed suicide recently, including our young lady. It is absolutely impossible for us to appear outside now. What's more, we have been unconscious for exactly two hours. We suspect that she has kidnapped our entire Jing family." The butler calmly narrated this exaggerated conclusion to the police.
"No, this is the Xia family's house." The police were unable to explain the current situation and simply introduced Xia Yi's identity. "She is employed by the Xia family."
"I'm sorry, little girl. We were too scared just now." The head of the Jing family was the first to apologize. Seeing the head of the family express his opinion, the others also expressed their apologies.
Xia Yi nodded, neither accepting nor rejecting.
Only Xiang Jiu meowed twice, rolled his eyes to express his dissatisfaction, raised his hand and patted Xia Yi's trouser legs, looking as if he would not accept the apology. Seeing Xia Yi "betraying the country", he ran out angrily.
After waiting for a while and making sure that the monster's roar could no longer be heard, the ambulance call came into the police's cell phone again. When the police were sending each other down, Xiang Jiu hurried up.
"Xia Yi, come out and look at those corpses. They've changed. They've become mirror elves." Xiang Jiu was two steps away from Xia Yi when he leaped into the air and landed on his shoulder. "But not all the dead have changed."
Xia Yi hurriedly followed the police downstairs.
Indeed, a corpse turned into a mirror elf. The mirror elf, which was two meters and five meters tall without the head and had reflective scales, attracted everyone's attention. The police arranged for someone to send their colleague to the ambulance, and the policeman who took Xia Yi's statement last night stayed here.
Take photos - collect evidence.
"What will happen to these monsters?" Xia Yi asked.
"These monsters will be collected by the government and used for experiments, research, exhibitions, or even auctions. They'll all end badly." The police officer curled his lips. "They've killed so many people, and that will be reported. But since they've found a new species, my colleague should be able to receive a substantial bonus, so they won't have to worry about running out of money for medical treatment!"
"Everyone, please go outside first. It's too bloody in here. You will have nightmares at night." The policeman glanced at the person who was vomiting due to the smell of blood and said.
Xia Yi nodded and took Xiang Jiu with him, following the crowd outside.
She looked around the castle and saw that all the Xia family members had turned into monsters, including the servants who had gained real power in the Xia family.
Xia Yi guessed that these people might be the ones who knew the secret of the mirror.
"Ding-ling-ling~" the phone rang.
Xia Yi first moved the phone away, waited for four rings, and then picked up the call.
"Xia Yi, I finally got through to you. Where are you? We found the door, but the answer to the lady's death is incorrect, so we still can't get out of the copy. Come here quickly." Gao Yang's voice came from the phone.
