Why Don't You Let Me Burn It?

"Master, I changed the soil, watered the flowers, and applied fertilizer. They are much better now."

Opening the door, Butler Wang walked in holding a flower pot.

"Well... let's put it on the windowsill..."

"Hey, okay"

When Butler Wang put it away and was about to leave, Lin Mi suddenly asked: "Steward Wang, these flowers are very good. Where did you buy them? I also want to buy two and take them home to raise one."

"This... to be honest, I don't know where I bought it. I saw it in the greenhouse in the backyard the other day. I thought it looked pretty, so I moved it up. If Mr. Lin is interested, I'll ask later."

"Really, what a pity...it's okay, Butler Wang, you can go and do your work."

"You're welcome, Mr. Lin."

After Butler Wang left, Xia Mingjiang and Xia Xi tacitly agreed not to say much, but just "quarreled" about the current situation of the Xia family.

Lin Mi was eating melon nearby and watching the two of them acting.

In the end, Xia Xi had no choice but to compromise and just said that since she had to choose, she should pick a suitable time to call everyone and make a good choice.

Xia Mingjiang agreed.

After leaving the study, Xia Xi asked softly: "The flowers are still there. Father, he won't be affected anymore, right?"

"No," Lin Mi shook his head, "I was unprepared before, but now Uncle Xia knows that, with precautions, a poisonous flower is not that powerful."

"That's good…"

As he said that, Xia Xi felt a little curious.

"By the way, how did you tell that the flower was wrong, and that piece of metal should be some kind of alchemy material, right?"

If I remember correctly, Lin Mi seemed to have never learned these things.

"Because I have a senior brother who is very good at refining medicine and blacksmithing..."

Two days passed, and Lin Mi visited almost every corner of the Xia family, observing everyone more than once.

What surprised him was that there was not a single star demon in the Xia family. It was too clean.

Keeping his doubts in mind, Lin Mi did not act rashly.

Act like a person who is simply visiting the magic city.

He did walk around the magic city twice, but whenever he asked passers-by about those families, they basically kept silent and left in a hurry.

Or maybe you don’t know anything at all, and you don’t understand it at all.

Until Lin Mi was sitting in the park and casually asked the man setting up a stall next to him.

"Huh, them? They're just a group of human traffickers in sheep's clothing!"

Lin Mi's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked.

"There's nothing to say. My family used to live a good life. Later, my son and daughter were stolen. I found out that it was someone under the Wang family who did it. I couldn't argue with them. My wife also disappeared one night and was never seen alive. A person dies without seeing his body…”

He squinted his eyes and lit up the cigarette, sighing as the mist shrouded him.

"My leg was also broken into pieces by someone who broke into my house..."

The old man stretched out his legs, reflecting the dazzling light in the sun.

"Why don't you report it to the official?"

"I have no strength left, and there are parents. Besides, who knows if there are any of them in the government? I am just a commoner, how can I argue? I'm just talking to a foreign kid like you, don't mess with me. them"

"...Thank you bro"

He waved his hand, but the old man didn't speak.

Lin Mi bought a bag of things from the stall and never went out again.

A few days later in the evening, a banquet jointly held by several major families in the Demon City was held quietly without being made public.

As a special guest of the Xia family, Lin Mi also changed into a formal dress, cleaned up a bit, and followed along.

Inside the car, back row.

Xia Xi's aunt Xia Yu was still comforting Xia Xi softly.

"Xiao Xi, don't be angry with your dad. Choose someone you like. This is the most we can do for you..."

"Um…"

Xia Xi didn't say much, she just looked out the window. She didn't listen to a word of Xia Yu's words.

If Lin Mi hadn't checked several times and found no traces of being parasitized or fostered on Xia Yu, I'm afraid she wouldn't have been so silent.

Her father was influenced, but her aunt really wanted to sell her...

He said the gentlest words, but did the things she was least willing to accept.

When my mother was here, my father was very busy, and my aunt often came to visit and stayed with her and her mother, but now...

Things are different and people are different.

"Mr. Lin, Miss, we are here"

When you open the car door, you will see a splendid wine hall.

There were several rows of bodyguards in black suits standing outside the door. The area around the wine hall was isolated and there was no one around.

Lin Mi pushed up his glasses and followed Xia Xi.

Xia Mingjiang was already waiting at the door of the restaurant at some point. When he saw several people arriving, he took a step forward.

"Let's go, the guys inside are already impatient..."

Passing through two spacious marble corridors, the walls are inlaid with white jade carvings.

Looking up, he saw several red lights staring directly at everyone.

Lin Mi chuckled lightly and didn't care.

Soon, melodious dance music came, and there was a faint sound of conversation, accompanied by a few laughs.

"Oh? Everyone, our protagonist is here."

In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Xia Xi, who had just walked into the wine hall.

She was wearing a light blue dress, revealing her jade-like collarbones, white pearls hanging from her ears, and her hair was simply tied together.

There was no extra makeup, but the moment she appeared, she attracted the attention of all the young men in the room.

Suddenly, a handsome boy poked his head out from behind Xia Xi, bared his teeth and smiled at those people.

In an instant, it attracted a large wave of hatred.

Lin Mi pushed up his glasses, thinking that it was so lively tonight. There were countless handsome men and beautiful women, all dressed like dogs.

There are a lot of people, and there are also a lot of star monsters.

"Lao Xia, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you for a long time. Come on, come and have a drink!"

Someone from a table at the main table greeted.

Xia Yu added in several people's ears: "Over there are the heads of several families, Wu Liang of the Wu family, Wang Tianyang of the Wang family, Ding Zhipeng of the Ding family, Feng Hui of the Feng family, and the five families of the Magic City are all here today. …”

"You have so many families in this magical city..."

"The magic city is very big..."

Xia Mingjiang frowned, but soon disappeared, and said with a smile: "Here he comes."

Then he turned around and said: "Xiao Xi, classmate Lin Mi, you can do your own activities and communicate more with those young people. Xiao Yu, let's go over there."

"Okay brother"

After the two people left, Lin Micai and Xia Xi walked inside.

The towering wine hall was brightly lit, and Lin Mi could feel countless eyes staring in his direction.

Everyone in the wine hall was holding a wine glass, and blood-colored wine was tumbling in the glass.

Lin Mi counted silently in his mind: "Three, two, one"

"Xia Xi, long time no see..."

Well, another one here to test.

Lin Mi simply turned a blind eye and walked away as if the person didn't appear.

Xia Xi also followed suit.

"This music sounds good"

"Uh-huh"

Ding Sheng, who was standing there, squeezed the wine glass in his hand, his fingertips turned white, and his face turned red, but it didn't break out.

After all, we are here to attract people today.

"Hmph, just be proud of yourself. When I find the opportunity, I will sell you to those adults."

People kept coming up to say hello to the two of them, but they both ignored them.

It seemed that Lin Mi was showing off his temper with Xia Xi, but in fact the two of them walked around, and Lin Mi's extremely strong mental power had already engraved everyone's appearance in his mind.

It is clear who is human and who is demon.

I just don’t know if there are other parasitic demons hiding and where the contact person is.

At least Lin Mi knew that there was at least one plant star demon hiding in the magic city.

"It seems that if you want to know the total number of parasitic demons in the Demon City, you can only find out by asking the parasitic demons."

"As for the identity of the contact persons, I'm afraid only the above ones know it."

"Maybe it's the plant star demon who's hiding"

Lin Mi thought in his mind, but this trip can be considered as a harvest.

He already has a list in his hand, and none of the star monsters present will be able to escape by then.

However, their actions have aroused the dissatisfaction of some people who regard them as prey, and they have begun to put pressure on Xia Mingjiang and Xia Yu.
