The Demon and the Puppeteer

This night, the pattern of ghosts and creatures finally changed.

The members of the demon clan headed by Mrs. Hong have been plotting for a long time, and half of the guards of the fire were persuaded. This night they first quietly removed the fire of fire, and then started to cause turmoil. Only Xue Yanshi was able to generate fire out of thin air. The backbone of the demon clan headed by Yanshi can't find Xue Yanshi anywhere, and the army's morale has been lost without the backbone. In addition, they can only rely on half of the karma to resist, and the two sides are evenly matched.

Under the stalemate between the two sides, the ghosts mixed with three forces.The first group is the people from the RAT organization sent by Lu Sinian. Many people in the RAT organization are tech geeks who can invent and develop some novel weapons. They are here to provide weapons and help them use them.Lu Sinian has successfully negotiated with Mrs. Hong, Lu Sinian provided weapons, and Mrs. Hong let Han Jizhi go.

The second group is the gangsters gathered by Han Qian. The ghosts in City A dominate, and other gangsters have long complained. After Cheng Lang's death, Han Qian went to visit the bosses of the declining gangs one by one, and formed an alliance to deal with the ghosts.

The third force, which was also the final force, was the police called by Song Xue to arrest all the demons who belonged to Xue Yanshi's faction who were still alive.Song Xue communicated with the superiors, and almost everyone in the ghosts has committed crimes, and the superiors are eager to take credit for these people.

These three forces were all here to help Madam Hong. The backbone of the demon clan headed by Xue Yanshi was soon defeated, and Madam Hong won a complete victory.

It was early morning when the ghost creature regained its calm. Although the ghost creature couldn't see the sun all day long, it could hear the voices of people outside.

What Mr. Q wants to do most at the moment is to lie on the bed and have a good sleep for three days and three nights. Since he became a killer, he has almost never slept more than two hours a day—the current demons have degenerated to the level of human beings. You also need to sleep to recharge your energy.

He is an A-level killer. Most of his tasks are difficult, but he makes a lot of money, and he completes them perfectly. Xue Yanshi likes to send him out on tasks, but he has long been tired of being a killer.

Now he can finally be free, Mr. Q walks briskly, now he is going to find Mrs. Hong, and after reporting his mission, he can leave the ghost completely and pursue a new life.

Mrs. Hong is in the igloo, Xiaohong is with her, Han Jizhi, Yan Ziyu, Song Xue, and Han Qian are all there.

They seemed to be discussing the corpse on the ice of the thousand-year-old Xuan*, each of them had different expressions, but they didn't show much, only Yan Ziyu showed his anger clearly.

Mr. Q began to report: "The princess has been sent abroad now. I told her that the ghost was arrested by the police, and only a few people escaped. The demon king ordered the disbandment of the remaining members of the ghost. The princess has no doubts. So far, except us A few, all the people in the ghosts have been dismissed, the net assets of the ghosts are 80 billion, they each get 1000 million, and the remaining money is enough for Madam to continue to hold this land."

As soon as Mr. Q finished speaking, Xiaohong immediately asked Mrs. Hong: "Why do you still want this piece of land? Do you still want to stay here?"

Madam Hong nodded: "I want to guard this igloo and wait for Xue Yanshi to come back."

"Why?" Xiaohong felt incredible, "Maybe Xue Yanshi died a long time ago, and this corpse, I don't know what is the point of you guarding this corpse."

"It's my body, and it should belong to me." Yan Ziyu interrupted angrily.

"You can't prove it, and even if it's really yours, I have to wait until Xue Yanshi comes back to make a decision." Mrs. Hong calmly said to Yan Ziyu and then turned to Xiaohong, "Xue Yanshi is just missing. He is not here now. I help him keep his promise, and I owe him an explanation when he comes back."

Xiao Hong pursed her lips, she was like a coquettish child in front of Madam Hong: "Then I want to stay with you, anyway, I don't know where to go now."

Mrs. Hong looked kindly, nodded, and then looked at Mr. Q. In the past, she always looked at Mr. Q with a disgusted expression, in order to make people like Xue Yanshi think that their relationship is bad, but Mr. Q has always been on their side. People, now she looks at Mr. Q as she looks at Xiaohong, full of kindness: "What about you, have you figured out where to go?"

Mr. Q: "I want to sleep for a few days before thinking about other things."

Madam Hong smiled: "Good boy, thank you for your hard work, go back and have a rest. If you want to visit us in the future, we warmly welcome you."

Mr. Q also smiled: "Okay, then I'll go first."

When Mr. Q turned around, Han Jizhi suddenly held Yan Ziyu's hand, Yan Ziyu looked at Han Jizhi suspiciously, Han Jizhi pointed to his chest, Yan Ziyu opened his eyes wide -

"Is there a sense of immortal stone?" Yan Ziyu said via voice transmission.

"Yes." Han Jizhi replied.

Mr. Q had already walked to the door, when he suddenly heard Mr. Q shouting: "Who are you?" Then he heard the sound of fighting outside the door.

Han Jizhi and the others couldn't see who was outside the door. Song Xue was the first to rush out. She was a thousand-year-old tree demon with the deepest cultivation among the crowd, followed by Mrs. Hong, and then Yan Ziyu. Most of Yan Ziyu's cultivation was low. Imprisoned by the puppet form, it cannot be used, so the action is a little slower.

When everyone came outside the door, the fighting had already stopped. Mr. Q was injured on the side, and a man in police uniform fell on the ground.

"What happened?" Han Jizhi asked Yan Ziyu.

Yan Ziyu shook his head: "It was like this when I came here."

Mrs. Hong asked Mr. Q with concern: "How is the injury?"

"It's okay, a small injury, I'm used to it." Mr. Q took out a small bottle and sprinkled the powder on the wound to stop the bleeding, then kicked the corpse on the ground, and the corpse made a "bang bang" sound, "He's not a human, he's a puppet. "

Yan Ziyu sent a voice transmission to Han Jizhi: Did the immortal stone sensed by the officials come from it?

Han Jizhi: It should be.

Yan Ziyu: If the fairy stone is still in its body, it shouldn't be dead.

Han Jizhi frowned: I don't know, the sense of the fairy stone is still there, very close, but I can't tell whether the fairy stone is in it or not.

"I know it." Song Xue squatted down, stroking the puppet's face on the ground, "It's Zhao Huan's real puppet."

Xiaohong asked, "Who is Zhao Huan?"

"It's my colleague and partner." Song Xue said lightly.

Mrs. Hong was a little surprised. She was the second person who rushed out the door to see the scene. At that time, she only saw the puppet falling down. Song Xue stood beside her with a cold expression, even a little cold. It's the real puppet of Song Xue's partner. Logically speaking, shouldn't Song Xue be merciful?

Xiaohong asked Mr. Q: "Why did it kill you?"

Mr. Q was silent for a moment, and said, "I killed Zhao Huan."

Except for Song Xue, everyone was shocked, and the atmosphere was a little stagnant.

"Did you kill Lu Tiange too?" Song Xue asked suddenly.

"……Correct."

Song Xue seems to be fulfilling the duty of the police at the moment: "We found out that Lu Sinian had contacted the ghosts. It was just a few days before Lu Tiange's death. I suspect that Lu Sinian wanted to find a killer to kill Lu Tiange, and then put everything together. Push on the puppet."

"Yes," said Mr. Q, "that's the plan."

Song Xue said unhurriedly: "It's a pity that we only have evidence of Lu Sinian's connection with ghosts, but no evidence of Lu Sinian hiring a killer."

Mr. Q lowered his head: "I can't be a witness."

Song Xue nodded: "I know, this is the professional rule of your killers. Once you violate it, you will be in trouble. I just have doubts in my heart and ask for an answer."

"Thank you Officer Song for your understanding." Mr. Q was very grateful, and then bowed his head to Song Xue to apologize, "I'm sorry."

Mr. Q's apology was a bit random, but everyone knew that he was apologizing for killing Song Xue's partner, Zhao Huan.

"It's okay, it's not your fault, you're just performing the task." Song Xue actually smiled, "If you want to blame, you can blame the system of the ghosts. Now that the ghosts have been wiped out, I don't have anything to complain about."

Madam Hong patted Song Xue's shoulder to comfort her: "Do you want to keep this puppet?"

Song Xue shook her head: "I don't need it, but I have to return it to Zhao Huan's parents." Saying that, Song Xue went to help the puppet.

"I'll help you." Mr. Q rushed to help, but the others didn't move. They knew that Mr. Q wanted to do something to alleviate the guilt in his heart, and they shouldn't interfere.

Put both hands through the puppet's arms to lift the puppet up, and then hold the puppet's waist. The upper body of the puppet rests on Mr. Q's shoulders, which is heavier than expected. , Mr. Q did not move.

When everyone was puzzled, they saw Mr. Q falling straight on the back of his head, and the puppet was on Mr. Q's body.

Song Xue was the closest, and quickly pushed the puppet away. It took a lot of effort, because the puppet's hand was deeply inserted into Mr. Q's lung.

Everyone didn't know whether the puppet was dead or not, but they saw the puppet lying on the ground in a big shape, with blood on its hands, a big crack at the corner of its mouth, and a secretive smile, which made people feel frightened.

A chill rose in Xiaohong's heart: "It won't come back to life, right? Let's burn it quickly!"

The blue light of the karmic fire ignited, Yan Ziyu originally wanted to stop it, fearing that the fairy stone was inside the puppet, what if it was exposed or burned by the karmic fire, but after thinking about it, he didn't stop it.

The puppet was quickly reduced to ashes, and there was no fairy stone.

Yan Ziyu's voice transmission: Officer, is the sense of the fairy stone still there?

Han Jizhi: Still there.

Yan Ziyu: Someone must have taken the fairy stone, could it be Song Xue?She was the first to rush out.

Han Jizhi: Very likely.

After the puppet was burned to ashes, Mr. Q's body was alone on the ground, and no one spoke for a while.

Madam Hong spoke first: "Let's bury this child alive."

Song Xue said, "Leave it to me. I'll take him to the police station and close Lu Tiange's case."

Madam Hong hesitated, and Han Qian, who had been silent all this time, said, "The death of Lu Tiange has had a great impact on society, and the rumors of the puppet's murder have also caused great panic. We need to give an explanation to the public."

Song Xue continued: "When the case is over, Mrs. Hong can come and claim the corpse."

Xiaohong suddenly said: "Don't you think it's strange? Why did the puppet come back to life after it died?"

No one answered.

But Xiaohong stared at Song Xue, and said to herself: "I suspect that it was not the puppet who killed Mr. Q, but Police Officer Song."

Madam Hong hastily tugged on Xiaohong's sleeve, and lightly reprimanded: "Don't talk nonsense without evidence."

Xiaohong ignored it: "Officer Song said he didn't care that Mr. Q killed Zhao Huan, but in fact he must have hated him so much, so he killed him when he was off guard."

Madam Hong said: "Officer Song's cultivation is so high, why is it so troublesome to kill someone, Officer Song, Xiaohong is ignorant, please don't blame her."

Song Xue smiled: "It's okay, it's getting late, and it's time for me to go to work."

Han Qian, Song Xue, Han Jizhi, and Yan Ziyu left Guishen, Han Qian drove, Song Xue sat in the passenger seat, Yan Ziyu and Han Jizhi sat in the back row, and Mr. Q's body was placed in the trunk.

Yan Ziyu sent a voice transmission to Han Jizhi: Officer, is the sense of the immortal stone still there?

Han Jizhi: Still there.

Yan Ziyu was almost certain that the fairy stone was on Song Xue's body.

In the rearview mirror, Yan Ziyu stared at Song Xue with a pair of bright eyes, and Song Xue's phoenix eyes were slightly closed, revealing a little light.

------------------------------------------------

"Officer, do you think Mr. Q was killed by Song Xue?"

"No. I think Mr. Q was killed by a puppet."

"But the puppet was already dead the first time. Could it be that the puppet is pretending to be dead?"

"Do you still remember how the Tao Ran puppet got out of the Tao Ran Memorial Hall? Father can control the puppet, whether it is alive or dead. Song Xue took the fairy stone out of the puppet, and the puppet died, but even if the puppet died, father could still Control the puppet to kill Mr. Q."
