There is nothing wrong with the training method of the Justice Messenger

"Because I want to kill someone."

"..."

Li Nian did not ask any more questions, but the man in a trance still thought that he had not answered his question. He did not know what he was thinking of, but he showed a cruel smile and laughed like crazy.

"Yes, they told me that there is no need to fear those damn exorcists anymore! So kill them if you want! Eat them if you want! The age of monsters has arrived!"

“…Rest assured, your time will never come.”

Li Nian sneered and revoked the words. The man regained consciousness and his expression became horrified again. He remembered what he had said? Did he admit that he had killed someone? And he also told the motive?

The man seemed to have foreseen his own end and spoke hurriedly.

"Wait, I vote..."

Li Nian didn't wait for him and didn't want to hear more from him. She pushed hard with her feet, and with a "pop", the man's head exploded like a watermelon, splattering white and red all over the ground and all over Li Nian.

"You can't surrender, or I won't be able to kill you."

Li Nian said calmly, wiping the blood off her face.

Chapter 107 No matter what, we have to return to life

"Awaited."

Li Nian fell from the sky and landed lightly on the ground, leaving behind a frozen headless corpse in front of the police captain, making a loud noise of a hard object hitting something.

Everyone around was speechless as they looked at the corpse on the ground and Li Nian, who was covered in blood. They were frightened by this horrifying scene, and everyone had a look of shock on their face.

The middle-aged police captain had seen many storms and quickly regained his composure. After seeing this situation, he had a rough guess about how things would develop, but he still frowned and asked Li Nian for confirmation.

"…What's going on? What happened?"

"The guy on the ground is the criminal. When I found him, he was unwilling to cooperate and kept resisting, threatening my own life. I decided that I couldn't hold back and had to kill him on the spot and bring back the body." Li Nian replied calmly.

The inspector looked down at the corpse on the ground. This guy was frozen in the process of transforming into his original form. After death, he still maintained that half-baked appearance. His limbs were frozen in the process of transformation. He looked like neither human nor ghost. Although he lost the most recognizable head, he obviously did not look like a human. It was obvious that he was indeed a monster.

The police captain looked up again and gave Li Nian a deep look.

The monster's body is right here. The police inspector has no doubt that this guy is the culprit who committed the crime. And as can be seen, he has obviously been killed by the exorcist in front of him. But is this process really self-defense as Li Nian said?

During these dozens of minutes, no one followed this young man, except him and the dead monster on the ground. No one knew what happened while he was away, and no one knew whether what he said was true or not except himself.

The police chief was suspicious.

But he didn't ask any more questions.

He knew very well that since the incident had been classified as a third-category spiritual disaster, the right to speak would naturally have to be handed over to the exorcist sent by the Yin-Yang Bureau. Since it involved gods and monsters, there was no other objective and true evidence. Li Nian was the authority, and whatever he said was the truth.

Anyway, even if killing a criminal suspect is against the law, if the target is a monster, it is not protected by the law and is not within the job of the police.

At this point, the whole case has been solved and concluded. The murderous monster has been brought to justice. This is the best outcome.

The inspector thought a lot and finally said only one sentence.

"Thank you for your hard work. Leave the rest to us."

……

……

After Li Nian used a spell to clean the blood off his body, he returned to Iwabata's car and asked him to take him back to Sakurasou.

While sitting in the car, he suddenly received a text message on his mobile phone. There was a new deposit into his card. It must be a reward. Li Nian didn't expect it to be realized so quickly. He opened the text message and glanced at the specific amount. It was more than three times the last time.

"Is it because I have completed my internship?"

Li Nian muttered something, but he didn't feel as excited as last time, even though the income was much more generous than last time. He put away his phone, too lazy to think about it.

Li Nian handled the case efficiently by killing the criminal, the monster. The remaining red tape was not his job. The trip there and back did not take Li Nian too long. When he returned to Sakurasou, the sun had just risen from the horizon, shedding its light and dispelling the darkness that enveloped the earth. Day and night alternated, and a new day began.

What happened at night was just a small episode in a corner of the earth. Perhaps it would gain some topicality due to the death of a human and a monster, and would appear as the headline news on today's pages, but that was all the significance. Only a few small lives died. The world will not change because of this. It will continue to turn. The busy life and struggle for survival of everyone under the light is the eternal and unchanging main theme.

But Li Nian knew very well that in the shadow beneath the light, something was stirring, an undercurrent surging, eroding the light through the boundaries.

so what?

Li Nian looked at the Sakurasou in front of him. The soft sunlight covered the old building like a veil. The flowers and green grass looked gorgeous under the sunlight. The birds on the roof chirped happily. His cold and indifferent expression, which had been frozen for a long time, slowly thawed and he muttered to himself.

"You don't need to see the darkness, because it's our job to keep it out of your sight."

……

……

But after work, everyone's life has to go on.

Li Nian arrived at school early and had buried what happened last night deep in her heart and didn't think about it too much.

Because he didn't sleep much last night, the first thing he wanted to do when he sat back in his seat was to lie down and close his eyes to rest for a while.

At this time, An Yi, who had arrived earlier than him, had been waiting for a long time. He immediately came up to him and slammed the manuscript that he had lent him before on his desk without saying a word.

"What's next?"

"...You are really energetic so early in the morning." Li Nian looked up at him, took out a USB flash drive from his pocket and threw it to him: "Print it out and read it yourself. Remember to print a few copies... And don't bother me now, let me rest for a while."

An Yi took the USB drive in panic and looked at Li Nian, who was leaning back into his arms, in confusion, wondering what he had been doing last night.

In fact, An Yi came over and wanted to talk to Li Nian about the manuscript with the beginning, but he was tactful enough not to disturb Li Nian at this time. He thought it would not be too late to make a comment after reading the rest of the manuscript, so he turned around and ran out of the classroom, hurriedly looking for a place to print the manuscript.

Wu Geng looked at his departing back, wanting to say something but stopping herself. She then looked at Li Nian who was lying down and sleeping. Finally, she sighed and put her own manuscript, which she had pulled out a little from the drawer, back into the drawer.

When she went back last night, she still felt that what Li Nian said made sense. After thinking it over, she felt that An Yi was the most suitable reader. She wanted to use Li Nian's relationship to talk to this person today and hand him the manuscript for him to take a look, but obviously, she had lost this opportunity.

She still talked to Li Nian and reminded him, "The first class in the morning is Ms. Hiratsuka's. You haven't forgotten that she warned you last time, have you?"

Li Nianshi didn't even raise his head, just made an OK gesture.

Wu Geng thought that his gesture meant that he had good sense and would not sleep until that time, so he stopped reminding him.

But when Mr. Hiratsuka actually came to class, this guy showed no signs of waking up.

Obviously, no one dared to make any small movements and pretended to be a good student listening attentively. Only Li Nian, who was sitting in the back row and lying on the table, was so conspicuous that he attracted the attention of Mr. Hiratsuka from the beginning. He immediately cast his eyes and stared at him.

Including Gogen, when everyone who noticed this scene was thinking that this guy would not be able to escape punishment by the iron fist, Hiratsuka teacher stared at him for a while, but finally said nothing and looked away, continuing her class, actually choosing to turn a blind eye for the first time in her life.

Wu Geng's eyes widened in disbelief.

...There is definitely something fishy!

Chapter 108: Honest Advice Harms the Ear

However, although Mr. Hiratsuka in the first class turned a blind eye to Li Nian who was lying down and sleeping, and the teacher in the next class also ignored him, but in the third class before lunch break, Mr. Koharu who noticed him did not intend to let him go so easily.

"Let's first factorize X squared minus Y bisector..."

Teacher Xiaochun, who was giving a lecture, walked down from the podium and stood beside the sleeping Li Nian. She deliberately raised the volume of her voice, trying to remind this guy that she had noticed her, but Li Nian seemed not to hear her and was still sleeping soundly. She thought Li Nian was not awake yet, so she knocked on the table gently, but this did not wake Li Nian up. She decided to stop teaching and started to shake Li Nian, calling him in her soft and non-intimidating voice.

"Hey~~! Wake up you little rascal, the sun is already shining on your butt!"

Li Nian let her shake him, but he still didn't move. Even if Teacher Xiaochun increased the force of the shaking, it was still useless. Finally, she used her last resort. Hey! She picked up the book and hit Li Nian's head lightly.

Li Nian still didn't wake up.

This made Teacher Xiaochun think that he was deliberately ignoring her and she finally started to get angry. She pouted and said in a frustrated tone: "Hmph! How dare you be so mean? I'm going to ignore you. I'll go down and tell Xiaojing about you again~~~!" She turned around and walked back to the podium and ignored him. It seemed that she didn't want to affect her lecture because of him, but she didn't realize that her voice was unconsciously filled with anger during the rest of her lecture.

After class, Teacher Koharu left the classroom angrily, probably going to complain to Teacher Hiratsuka.

At this time, Li Nian suddenly woke up when he heard the lunch bell. He seemed to have had a good sleep. He stretched comfortably and leisurely. Suddenly, he noticed that everyone in the classroom was looking at him strangely, and he immediately showed a confused expression.

"What's going on? Why are you all looking at me?"

"This person actually looks like he has no idea what's going on." Kato complained blankly.

"what?"

"It seems like he really fell asleep..."

Li Nian scratched his hair. He really didn't know what had just happened. In order to have a better rest, he closed his senses and entered a state of deep meditation to restore his spirit. He set a schedule to leave on time for lunch break. At the same time, he also adjusted his perception to not react to anything other than murderous intent and hostility. So he had no idea what happened in the three classes in the morning.

Seeing that he really didn't know, Kato began to explain, "You fell asleep in Teacher Koharu's class before, and she couldn't wake you up no matter what she did. She got angry and said she was going to complain to Teacher Hiratsuka."

Only then did Li Nian realize that this kind of thing had just happened in the class. No wonder he was given strange looks by others. He shrugged embarrassedly.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Xiaochun. I don't mean to look down on him. I'm just really tired."

He continued writing the article where he had left off, which took a lot of energy. He didn't sleep for long and was called away in the middle of the night to deal with a spiritual disaster. The mental drain was indeed severe.

"Because you finished this?"

An Yi came over with the manuscript and interrupted. Li Nian looked at him and was too lazy to explain.

"more or less."

"Thank you for your hard work. The quality of the middle section is also very high."

Gogen, who had taken out his lunch box, began to peek at the situation here.

An Yi handed the manuscript back, which contained the opening part that Li Nian gave him last time, and the middle part that he printed out today. As Li Nian said, he printed two more copies of this part.

"Ah~~, I'm really looking forward to how the finale will turn out. If you can handle the last part so well, then the overall quality of the book is good enough to be submitted for publication."

"Thank you. It's really exciting to hear you say this, An Yi." Li Nian took the manuscript, pulled out a printed copy of the novella, and handed it to Kato: "Here you go, a freshly published series."

Kato asked curiously, "You wrote it so quickly? Have you finished it?"

“No, this is a novella.”

After hearing this, Kato thought about it distressedly, looked at the manuscript handed over by Li Nian with hesitant eyes, but finally shook his head and pushed it back.

"You should wait until you finish writing before showing it to me. I think this is better. I don't want to experience that feeling of being stuck in the middle anymore."

These words immediately resonated strongly with An Yi, who nodded in agreement.

"That's right! Sudo-kun, you are quite understanding! I can't wait to dig this guy's brain open and see what the ending is!"

"…Um, although you, Amami-kun, seem to want to pull people to the side of agreement in a very friendly way, but isn't that the premise that you have the wrong target?"

"Ah?" An Yi was stunned and smiled.

"Her last name is Kato." Li Nian reminded.

"Eh? This..." An Yi was suddenly embarrassed, "Uh, sorry, it's Kato, right? Ahahaha, look at my memory, I actually remembered it as Sudo."

"Look at this low-level mistake you made." Li Nian laughed with glee.

"Student Li Nian, are you qualified to say that about student An Yi?"

Kato looked at him expressionlessly. Li Nian's expression suddenly froze. He immediately looked away, decisively choosing to skip this topic. He coughed twice and then spoke to An Yi.

"By the way, An Yi, tell me what you thought of me as you promised me."

Upon hearing this, Gogen, who was silently eating his lunch box, pricked up his ears and put down his chopsticks.

This was exactly what An Yi wanted to say to Li Nian, and his expression immediately became excited.

"great."

First of all, An Yi gave such an overall evaluation.

Wu Geng's body trembled suddenly, and he finally turned around. He stopped pretending and looked at Li Nian in surprise.

He did not show any smug look because of this, but just continued to watch and listen quietly.

"As expected, you have great writing skills. Whether it's the smooth narration or the interesting character design, it always makes people want to keep reading..."

An Yi began to praise Li Nian's manuscript in a torrent of words, just as excited as he was in the past when he talked about his favorite works. As if he could never finish, he began to list the advantages he found in Li Nian's manuscript.

The praise was so excessive that Wu Geng became more and more surprised, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Li Nian became more and more incredulous.

So showy?

When Wu Geng was thinking about this, he suddenly discovered that Li Nian, who was listening to An Yi's praise, was gradually beginning to frown.

Yes, the more Li Nian listened to An Yi's endless praise, the deeper his brows furrowed.

Perhaps Shang Jingcao would be flattered to the sky, but Li Nian would not. Instead, he felt disappointed at this moment because he found that he had made a mistake.

At this time, An Yi had undoubtedly put himself into the shoes of the male protagonist in the work, and understood everything that the character had experienced with empathy. He experienced ups and downs in his emotions for this reason, and was looking forward to future stories. He became a person captured by the words written by Li Nian.
