Ghost World Office

Li Li froze for a moment, the emotion in his eyes changed from pleading to hatred, he bent his neck, looked at the terrible wound on his stomach, and grinned silently.

From then on, Li Li knew: Shen An's calculation was wrong.

Even if one can use memory to create the darkness of the soul like the God of Law, there is no way to calculate people's hearts.

Not everyone is enamored of the supreme power, and not everyone wants to be the monarch of the world.

Tao Ye squinted his eyes and looked up at the old-fashioned incandescent lamp hanging from the ceiling. The harsh light of the bulb left a short circular spot in Tao Ye's eyes.He looked back at Lu Yi's blood-stained face, then looked down at Li Li, and said to Lu Yi in a cold voice:

"You are the director, what you do has nothing to do with me."

After speaking, Tao Ye quickly walked out of the office.

As soon as he stepped out of the door, Tao Ye heard a loud noise behind him. Li Li's extremely painful hiss only lasted for a second or two, and then fell silent.

Without stopping, Tao Ye quickly went downstairs and went straight out of the noodle shop gate.

Tao Ye found a park near the lake and sat by the lake until dawn.Apart from the noodle shop, he has nowhere to go.

It wasn't until the music of the old people's morning exercises in the park that Tao Ye came back to his senses in a daze. He stared at the blue sky for a long time, dragged his sore body, and got up from the steps by the lake.

The wind in the spring morning was still a bit cool, Tao Ye was only wearing a single shirt, and the cold wind unscrupulously crawled into his skin along the collar.Without noticing this, Tao Ye stood on the side of the road with his messy hair, took out his mobile phone, and called an online car-hailing car to go back to the noodle shop.

Several pieces of news pushed by the mobile phone caught Tao Ye's eyes, all of which were about Li Li——

[The chief designer of MIZU, Li Li, was murdered and his body was found on the commercial street of S City]

[A generation of masters has fallen, the murderer of Li Li has not been caught yet]

[Witnesses said that when Li Li was found, he was naked and had a large wound on his abdomen]

……

After getting into the car and turning the phone into the Do Not Disturb mode, Tao Ye turned off the screen of the phone, leaned on the back of the seat and closed his eyes to rest.

All these things were done by Lu Yi, he knew it very well.It's just that Tao Ye really couldn't figure out how Li Li provoked Lu Yi.

Tao Ye suddenly thought that Lao Xu had told him about Lu Yi before.Old Xu once said that in the ghost world, a soul only had an argument with Lu Yi, and was torn to pieces by Lu Yi.

At that time, Tao Ye thought it was artistic exaggeration, but now it seems that Lu Yi is really capable of doing that kind of thing.

Thinking wildly, the online car-hailing car has already parked downstairs of the noodle shop.After thanking the driver, Tao Ye got out of the car and walked into the gate of the noodle shop.

Unexpectedly, he was caught by Shen Zhu as soon as he entered the door.

"Did you do that?" Shen Zhu's face was full of anger, and even her voice was a bit aggressive.

Tao Ye knew that Shen Zhu was referring to Li Li's death, but he still pretended to be confused and asked, "What?"

At this time, the noodle shop hadn't opened yet, and a group of people were sitting on the first floor.

Not only the members of the Human World Office of S City were present, but also several faces that Tao Ye didn't know.Tao Ye quickly scanned around and found that Lu Yi was not there.

Shen Zhu dragged Tao Ye to an old man in a gray suit, and said, "Vice Liu, this is Tao Ye."

Tao Ye looked at the old man and thought: So this is Liu Chen's great grandfather...

"Hi, my name is Liu Ming, and I'm the deputy director of the Ghost Realm Administration." Liu Chen's great-grandfather looked very serious, almost exactly like Liu Chen.

"Ah... hello." Resisting the urge to laugh, Tao Ye tried his best to look like an obedient employee.

"Li Li was killed last night, did you know?"

Liu Ming asked straight to the point, without giving Tao Ye time to respond.

Tao Ye stopped immediately, even if he was given 100 million at this time, he would not be able to laugh anymore.Obviously, the General Administration of Ghost Realm believed that he killed Li Li.

The brain worked quickly, and it took only a few tenths of a second for Tao Ye to come up with the best answer: "I know."

After speaking, Tao Ye took out his mobile phone from his pocket, showed Liu Chen the news, and added:

"Isn't there news about his death everywhere?"

Liu Chen sat in a seat not far from Liu Ming, looking at Tao Ye with sincere pity.

He really didn't like Tao Ye before, but since last night, Liu Chen actually felt that Tao Ye was a man with a genuine temperament, and his impression of Tao Ye had improved a lot.

Although Liu Chen really wanted to intercede for Tao Ye, his great-grandfather was a stern judge who would never bend the law for personal gain. It was useless even if he tried to intercede, and he might even be scolded, so he kept his mouth shut and prayed in his heart that Tao Ye would really Li Li was not killed.

"What did you do last night?" Liu Ming asked immediately, his voice was low and serious, full of pressure.

Tao Ye struggled to utter a few words: "I sat by the lake in the park all night."

Even Tao Ye himself didn't believe this. If he had known earlier, he should have gone to the bathing center to take a sauna. At least he could be fooled.

"Li Li died, and even his soul was shattered beyond repair. You had the most contact with Li Li, and you didn't have an alibi last night. Now we suspect that you have something to do with Li Li's matter." Liu Ming held a cigarette in one hand. , tapped his knee with his knuckles with one hand, and said expressionlessly.

Tao Ye nodded, and said, "Understood. But I really didn't do this. There's no reason to suspect me."

Putting out the cigarette in the ashtray, Liu Ming pondered for a moment, raised his eyes to stare at Tao Ye, and said slowly:

"Don't think that the General Administration doesn't know your identity."

"What identity?" Tao Ye pretended to be confused, pretending to understand, and followed Liu Ming's words closely.

"What is the past of your soul, I don't need to say more. The power to tear your soul to pieces is not something just one person has." Liu Ming didn't give Tao Ye a chance to argue.

"If you put it this way, there are many people who can tear apart souls. It's impossible to doubt me every time something like this happens." Seeing that Liu Ming knew his identity, Tao Ye simply stopped pretending. He sat down on the seat next to Liu Ming and said with a smile.

Liu Ming had expected that Tao Ye would not admit it, and he didn't waste his time on this topic, so he said:

"Whether you admit it or not, come back to the ghost world with us."

Tao Ye pondered for a moment and thought for a while.

As a copy of the soul of the previous Vulcan, Shen An's minion, Li Li is of great value.

Ghosts and gods have always regarded the Portal of Darkness as a thorn in their hearts. In addition to the recent news that the Portal of Darkness has penetrated into the ghost world, the ghost world is of course eager to capture such an important person and obtain useful information from Li Li. .

Now that Li Li died inexplicably, and Tao Ye couldn't produce his alibi, he was naturally the most suspicious.

Even if the final investigation results come out and prove that the deaths of Tao Ye and Li Li are not related, Tao Ye will inevitably suffer some hardships in the ghost world.

Whether or not to confess Lu Yi is the main question for Tao Ye to think about.After thinking for a while, Tao Ye said firmly to Liu Ming:

"I didn't do this, why arrest me!"

"I know that you made a lot of effort to capture Li Li. But every yard counts, and this matter is not negotiable." Liu Ming's face became gloomy, and he stared at Tao Ye and said in a deep voice. .

In the end, Tao Ye still couldn't resist the powerful General Administration of Ghost Realm, and was dragged to the ghost realm.

It was Liu Chen who held Tao Ye up. Liu Chen tried his best to control Tao Ye's swaying limbs. With a swollen face, Liu Chen advised Tao Ye in a low voice:

"A good man never suffers from immediate losses."

Tao Ye was angry from the heart, and the evil turned to the guts, and he gave Liu Chen a look:

"Is it right for you to treat this hero to you!"

……

However, the development of the matter is not the same as Tao Ye imagined, even quite different.

Tao Ye was not taken to the secret room without light, nor was he taken to the General Administration of the Ghost Realm. Even just after passing the gate of the world, Liu Ming's attitude towards him took a 180-degree turn.

Although he was already an old man, Liu Ming's body was still very strong, and he walked in big strides on the snow-covered streets of the Ghost Realm.

"Chenchen, let Tao Ye go." Liu Ming told Liu Chen.

Maybe Liu Chen is not an excellent employee, but Liu Chen must be an excellent grandson.When the grandfather spoke, Liu Chen immediately let go of Tao Ye, without even asking why.

Tao Ye stretched his muscles and felt that the creaking nest was being pulled by Liu Chen, so he gave Liu Chen a resentful look and asked:

"What do you mean?"

Liu Chen glanced at Tao Ye's creaking hole, and apologized expressionlessly: "I'm sorry, otherwise I couldn't control you."

Liu Ming walked ahead, looked back at Tao Ye, and explained earnestly:

"Xiao Tao, some things are really forced, I hope you can understand. We are going to the other side of the road now, and there are some things that I need to explain to you clearly."

Hearing Lu Yi's name, Tao Ye shut his mouth knowingly.

He still doesn't know what's going on, he might betray Lu Yi by talking nonsense, so Tao Ye quietly followed Liu Ming and walked towards Lu Yi's residence.

It takes less than 10 minutes to walk from the Gate of the World to Lu Yi's residence.

When Tao Ye stood at the door of Lu Yi's house, looking at the flowers blooming in the garden, a strong feeling of resistance suddenly arose in his heart.

Even so, he watched Liu Ming ring the doorbell without saying a word.

The person who came to open the door was Lu Yi. Lu Yi nodded to Liu Ming and Liu Chen, then took a deep look at Tao Ye whose nose was red from the cold, and said to the three of them:

"Come in, it's snowing outside."

Entering the living room, Tao Ye sat down on the sofa he had been sitting on before, stared at Lu Yi as he walked into the kitchen, and brewed a large pot of scented tea.

The charcoal fire in the house is burning vigorously, and the air is dry and sweet.

Tao Ye's gaze involuntarily drifted to the painting on the wall——

Obviously, the boy in red in the painting is Punyuma, and the man in white is probably the God of Law.

Lu Yi poured three cups of scented tea, placed them in front of the three of them, sat down on the sofa opposite Tao Ye, and said to Liu Ming:

"Vice Liu, this matter troubles you."

Changing his previous serious image, Liu Ming took a few sips from his teacup, gulped it down, and said loudly:

"What's the matter, it's our duty to cooperate with the work of the God Realm! But speaking of it, Xiao Tao is really interesting, and he didn't say a word of your name in the end."

After speaking, Liu Ming gave Tao Ye an approving look.
