Mortal Mirror

Li Ergou still plucked up his courage and knocked on the door. Bai Su's voice came from inside, "Come in."

Li Ergou composed himself, pushed the door open, and entered. Bai Su was writing something at the desk, not looking up. Li Ergou watched her serious expression and felt too embarrassed to disturb her.

He touched his nose awkwardly and could only find a place to sit down first.

It had to be said that Bai Su's room was indeed different, clean and tidy, with a faint fragrance, not the smell of rouge, but the unique feminine scent of Bai Su, which smelled very nice. Li Ergou couldn't help but sniff it a few more times.

Moreover, Li Ergou felt something indescribable when he saw Bai Su working. If he had to describe it, it was that she had the air of competence.

At this moment, before he could think too much, Bai Su finally put down the pen in her hand. She raised her head and looked over.

When she saw Li Ergou, she opened her small mouth slightly in surprise and said incredulously, "Li Ergou, it's you! You're back!"

After the surprise, a look of joy appeared on her face.

Li Ergou smiled slightly and said, "Of course, I said my dog's life is strong, so I'm back, aren't I?"

"Hmph, you brat, still pretending to be mysterious with me. Why didn't you call me directly just now?"

Li Ergou chuckled and said, "Seeing you so busy, I didn't dare to disturb you. But you are really quite serious when you work. The first time I saw Lord Meng Xiaoyu, he was also like this. Could it be a standard configuration for you big shots?"

Bai Su snorted and said anxiously, "Tell me quickly, when did you come back? What happened during these days?"

Hearing this, Li Ergou deliberately smiled mischievously and joked, "Oh, it's rare. I didn't expect you, the Deputy Chief Constable, to miss me quite a bit."

Bai Su rolled her eyes at him and said, "Smart mouth."

Li Ergou rarely saw Bai Su so cute. Afraid that if he continued to tease her, the beauty would get angry, he immediately began to narrate what had happened afterwards.

However, he skipped over the matter of Li Hongyu in Laolong Pit, and he also concealed the Divine Demon Grotto, only saying that he had gone to a secret place and something had happened.

Almost everything was very vague.

Bai Su was confused by what she heard. There were really many things he couldn't describe. However, Bai Su knew the ending, that Ji Wuming was dead, the kind with no chance of survival.

However, what they both didn't know was that at this moment, in the Divine Demon Grotto, inside the endless blood pool, Ji Wuming, in the place where he thought he would die,

was actually entangled there by countless thumb-thick tentacles.

An eye with a diameter of ten zhang floated in the blood pool. At this moment, Ji Wuming transformed into a fish shape, with no expression in his eyes, like an empty soul.

The eye was also tightly closed, not knowing what it was doing, but it was certain that Ji Wuming was still alive at this moment. However, it was unknown when the end would be.

It was also unknown when he would wake up, and even more unknown what the huge eye was. However, Ji Wuming seemed to have recognized this thing at the beginning. Perhaps only he knew what monster this huge eyeball was.

After listening to Li Ergou's words, Bai Su looked puzzled and said, "Why did you hide so many key information? Could it be that these things are unspeakable?"

Li Ergou smiled wryly. He really didn't know how to say it.

For example, Li Hongyu, that guy had warned himself again and again. For example, the human skin inside the red coffin, his own brother Ji Xuanyun, who he picked up for nothing, was the former crown prince. How could he dare to say it? Once people knew, it would be a great disaster.

Flesh Ganoderma, oh no, now called Blood Linglong, how could he say it? How would Bai Su view him after he said it?

And he absorbed the power of those remnant souls, which was even more regarded as a demonic practice by the righteous path. He was afraid that Bai Su would not be able to help it and would directly execute him on the spot.

Therefore, he could only be vague and say a confused general idea.

With this thought, he could only say to Bai Su, "There are many things in it that I really can't describe, so please don't force me to ask.

I remembered one thing. Do you still remember what you promised me?"

Bai Su was slightly stunned and said, "What did I promise?"

Li Ergou almost collapsed in his heart. He immediately said, "Didn't you promise me a position as a Second Constable? Also, I can transfer the brothers from Kushui County to Yucheng."

Unexpectedly, Bai Su couldn't help but smile mischievously when she heard this.

Li Ergou immediately felt that he had been tricked by this guy. She was actually doing it on purpose. However, Li Ergou really didn't expect that Bai Su, who was usually serious, would also deceive people.

For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

So, he said with a stern face, "You are too bad, you are playing me."

Bai Su said, "If you don't tell me the truth, then I'm not allowed to play with you? Okay, I'm not kidding you. In any case, you have made great contributions this time. I have already applied to the higher-ups.

Your conditions are fully qualified for the position of Second Constable.

It's just that I'm very strange. I checked your files. When you were in Kushui County, you were the Deputy Chief Constable. You also made great contributions during the corpse disaster. At least you can be a Second Constable when you come to Yucheng.

But with such merit, you only became a small constable when you came here. Who is interfering in the middle? This guy is so bad."

Li Ergou was so excited when he heard someone speaking up for him. If it weren't for the different status, Li Ergou really wanted to hug Bai Su's thigh and cry, so as to tell his grievances.

Family, who understands? At this moment, Li Ergou's heart was really depressed. However, his position was humble. At first, he thought that Bai Su was interfering, but now it seems that he misunderstood her. It's really damn it.

He thought that Bai Su was beautiful and smooth, and she would never do such a dirty thing. The fact is really like this.

He struck while the iron was hot and immediately said, "My Lord, if possible, you must seek justice for me."

Bai Su snorted and said, "You are thinking too much. This matter was directly approved by the Chief Constable. With such methods, those who can intervene in it are obviously extraordinary. They must have a great relationship with the giants in the yamen.

The few people who can accomplish this can be counted on your fingers. You tell me, who should I investigate? Even if I find out, it's not something that a small Deputy Chief Constable like me can manage.

So, I advise you to calm down and just take it as a loss."

Li Ergou was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that Bai Su, who was always righteous, would also be like this. He sighed in his heart that the yamen was really too dark. Bai Su was not as he imagined, and she couldn't tolerate sand in her eyes for the sake of justice.

It seems that Lao Mantou was right. The things in this world are not what he imagined in his heart, and people in this world cannot be judged by themselves.

The most important thing is that this world is not black and white. There are still many things he needs to learn.

He couldn't manage so much. Since Bai Su didn't dare to provoke those guys, he, a little shrimp, could only suffer a loss. However, he kept thinking about this matter in his heart. Although he was not a petty person, he was not a good person either.

Wait, a gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late. He will get this back sooner or later.

But now, since Bai Su can't help him, he wonders if she will feel guilty. If that's the case, should he ask her for a sum of money? He smiled inwardly and began to calculate.
