The Emperor of Hell's Green Plum Pillow She Escaped Again
Chapter 147 Suspicion
"Don't worry, Dad and Mom. I know what's going on." Hei Huomian nodded in comfort, holding one of his parents' semi-transparent figures in one hand and sending them back to the other's bedroom door. "This kind of chatting is very time-consuming. Go to bed early. Good night."
"If there are any further changes, be sure to tell us."
Heihuomian comforted his parents and returned to the floor where his bedroom was. He raised his hand and looked at the ball of black flame burning tightly in the palm of his right hand.
Black Fire Sleep, hold on.
In the studio, Bai Shuiru didn't relax her stiff body until she heard the door close behind her. She let out a long sigh and involuntarily stood up and threw herself on the pile of colorful and differently shaped soft pillows on the carpet.
Her pure eyes looked involuntarily towards the door, and she slowly closed them to feel it.
The Hei Huomian family seemed to be discussing something mysteriously outside the door.
What are you talking about?
"You are still in doubt." A familiar yet unfamiliar voice accompanied by the suspicion that quietly emerged in her eyes, echoing in a world that seemed to belong to only her.
"You are doubting Hei Huo Mian." The voice was close to my ears, but somehow it made me feel that it was actually my true feelings.
Bai Shuiru, who was lying prone with her eyes blurred, finally found the "person" who was talking to her in the full-length mirror not far away - Bai Shuiru, who was looking at her leisurely with her head tilted.
"What I doubt is human nature, which cannot be tested."
The white water in the mirror sneered:
"Isn't Hei Huo Mian a human? You are hiding something from him, just as he is hiding something from you."
"Hei Huomian is hiding something from me..." Bai Shuiru muttered unconsciously and lay exhausted on the pile of pillows.
The tall and thin man in front of the mirror smiled with satisfaction, then slowly retreated and disappeared into the studio like scattered stardust.
Bai Shuiru was suddenly shocked, and when she came to her senses, she looked at the man in the mirror who was moving in the same manner as her. She sat up confusedly and looked around the studio where she was alone.
The underworld, in a nature reserve.
Hei Huomian and Li You are checking the distribution map of wild animal tracks under the guidance of researcher Lao Xuejiu.
The leader of the secret guards unconsciously turned his head and looked towards the valley behind him.
Suddenly, there was a muffled thunder, and the edge area of the underworld, which was already in a dark state all day long, became even more depressing, making people feel uncontrollably manic.
Black clouds with purple-black lightning were rolling above the valley in the northeast corner.
Soon, amidst the howling of the cold wind, hundreds of black UFOs came flying at high speed, accompanied by shrill cries. The dense trees in the distance swayed back and forth, and some even collapsed directly. The loud noise could not cover up the terrified roars of the beasts.
"Underworld Emperor, be careful!"
Before the leader of the secret guards could finish his words, the bird that flew first had already swept towards him.
Then, after the towering trees collapsed, out swarmed prehistoric and modern flying insects or birds as large as mammoths and plesiosaurs, as well as prehistoric giant dragonflies, whistling in like sharp arrows with the cold wind.
The six dark guards gathered together at a rapid speed, forming a translucent protective shield with their bodies to protect Hei Huo Mian.
The next moment, the heaven and earth shook, thunder and lightning were accompanied by the chirping of birds and the roaring of beasts. The vibration caused by the wild beasts running wildly was transmitted through the ground into the lungs, making people shudder.
However, dozens of seconds later, cracks began to appear on the protective shield formed by the dark guard's translucent body, and spread to the surroundings at a speed visible to the naked eye.
A few minutes seemed like years.
It was not until the last old and weak one-horned elk trotted past breathlessly that the secret guards were sure that the crisis was over. They then returned to their original forms, but still surrounded Heihuo Mian.
Lao Xuejiu slowly poked his head out of a rusty can that had been trampled almost flat. "Ming, Emperor Ming, are you okay?"
Hei Huomian nodded to the guards and looked back at Lao Xuejiu who was stuffing the can back into his pocket. "I'm glad you're okay."
"Who?!" The six secret guards in the dark suddenly appeared together, and while asking questions, they had already surrounded Heihuo Mian in a circle.
Only the sound of steady footsteps treading on fallen leaves and dead branches could be heard, followed by the young man's clear voice, "Your Majesty the Dark Emperor has come here incognito at this time of year, working day and night, and getting up early and sleeping late. He is indeed a role model for the gods of the Three Realms."
Hei Huomian raised his hand to signal the guards to retreat, and looked at the tall figure walking leisurely towards him, "Mr. Qi is also dedicated to environmental protection. But I remember that environmental protection is not the sector you are in charge of, Mr. Qi."
"No, I was just driving around," Qi Chu pushed up his glasses, took a half step forward and whispered:
"Just scouting for a date."
"Oh~?" Hei Huomian curled his lips and smiled with interest. "It is indeed unique to choose a rarely visited protected area as a date location. It seems that I need to ask Mr. Qi for advice some other day."
Qi Chu smiled and slowly turned a dark stone ring on his right thumb. "Emperor Hades suddenly joked with me like this, but I will take it seriously!" He then half teased and half tested:
"You are smart and wise, so we cannot easily interfere. However, I have also heard some rumors recently that good things are coming to the Underworld Emperor. It seems that it is not just a rumor."
Hei Huomian strolled leisurely in the garden, led Qi Chuchu to the top of the research institute to overlook, and changed the subject calmly:
"The government of Biluo has paid particular attention to environmental protection in the past ten years and has implemented many effective measures to protect biodiversity. Although some animals have become extinct in Biluo or even the world, they are still thriving here. And the endangered species here are vulnerable in the human world. It is conducive to our communication. So I personally asked about the research experience of population protection so that I can communicate with Biluo."
"Since we have met the Dark Emperor here by chance, why don't we exchange our views on tomorrow's regular meeting resolution."
Two equally elegant men strolled in the misty secret forest, bringing with them a slowly flowing mist that surrounded them, creating a fairy-like atmosphere.
As Qi Chu waved his hand, a 3D holographic image appeared in front of the two of them, showing the fact that the neighboring country J was irreversibly polluting the earth's atmosphere at all times.
"You and I are both descendants of Yan and Huang. It is our duty to protect our homeland and even the entire world. Since the island nation over there is determined to drag the people of this world to death together, and Biluo is not convenient to take action, then leave it to us."
"It is the duty of our descendants to protect their homeland. However, although I am the Emperor of the Underworld, as a god I must abide by the law of reincarnation and wait for karma." Hei Huomian's tone was calm but firm. "If you insist on forcing the punishment, I'm afraid it will go against the law of heaven. - Although I have a veto, I still want to know, is this the decision of the committee or Mr. Qi's personal decision?"
“Some decisions may be correct and necessary, but not everyone will understand and agree with them. So I don’t want my decision to appear to be just a spur of the moment decision.”
Hei Huomian turned around slowly, still looking sharply at Yu Qichu's face through his sunglasses.
Qi Chu opened his lips and was about to respond, but a slight new message alert sounded from his trouser pocket.
"Sorry." Qi Chu smiled apologetically, lowered his eyes and quickly browsed the new messages on his phone, with an irrepressible sweetness on the corners of his lips, "Sorry, my girlfriend is off work, I have to go buy some midnight snacks to pick her up."
Hei Huomian nodded slightly and replied:
"You should be attentive to the people you love."
Li You waited for Qi Chu to leave and went far away, then he immediately said:
"Emperor Ming, Qi Chu was just planning to assassinate me!"
Hei Huomian checked the real-time location monitoring of the animals on his tablet and sneered calmly:
"Let's not talk about why we didn't see the whereabouts of the frightened birds and animals through the surveillance just now, and we didn't notice them until they were right in front of us. And do we have any evidence?"
Li You was speechless, "But..."
"So, we just happened to encounter birds and animals running wildly for unknown reasons. However, you should still go to the source to investigate the cause of this animal madness."
Li You, "Emperor Ming, if Qi Chu's assassination just now was deliberate, then we must act quickly. If it was a spur-of-the-moment act, do you think he is suspicious of us?"
Hei Huomian glanced at Li You and said, "Why don't you ask me if I would be suspicious? Have you noticed him..."
"What? Is it..." Li You was eager to try, and just as he continued his speculation, Hei Huomian had already teleported away.
His faint instructions quickly faded into the ink:
"Go find Jiaocheng. I want to see her."
At lunch time, Bai Shuiru waited for his colleagues to go to the cafeteria or take takeout to the tea room to eat. He quietly took the elevator to the top floor and entered the password to open Hei Huomian's office.
"Mianmian, I'm so hungry. Have you got the food yet?" the little girl yelled without any image, and walked quickly to the coffee table. "Mianmian, have you eaten yet? I'll eat first, and I have to go and revise the drawings later."
When Bai Shuiru woke up this morning, Hei Huomian was not there. It was obvious that he had something important to deal with in the middle of the night.
Bai Shuiru was obviously unhappy that Hei Huomian not only did not mention this matter to her in the morning, but also did not show up, but she did not want to show it too obviously.
"Eat slowly," Hei Huomian saw the little girl suddenly stop chewing, and hurriedly scooped a spoonful of soup to her lips, "The lunch break is two hours, enough time for you to chew your lunch slowly, take a nap in the afternoon, and work overtime for fifteen minutes."
Bai Shuiru didn't even give the other person any color. He took the bowl of soup, took a sip to moisten his throat, and after slowly swallowing the food, he drank half a bowl of soup and continued to wolf it down.
Seeing this, Hei Huo Mian put away his smile and said seriously:
"As the chairman of the board, I order you to take your time to eat lunch and then go to the lounge to sleep for 45 minutes before you can work overtime."
Bai Shuiru immediately stood up and said respectfully, "Yes, Chairman." Then he sat down again, his serious expression concealing a turbulent mood:
This was the first time that Hei Huomian left suddenly without leaving a single word to tell me where he was going or when he would return.
I woke up in a daze last night. When I confirmed that the person next to me had left and would not be coming back for a while, I seemed to see the moonlight falling on the screen, revealing the figure of that "person". I woke myself up with sarcasm and indignation:
"You still don't believe it? Hei Huomian doesn't trust you at all!"
"Why else would he leave without saying goodbye? You are his fiancée, whom he keeps saying he can't live without and is a thousand times more important than his life, but in fact, he is hiding something..."
Hei Huomian noticed that the corners of her lips were drooping, and a pair of clear almond-shaped eyes were already quietly filled with mist. He quickly put his hands on her arms, looked at her intently, and said firmly:
"I'm sorry, I must have done something wrong to make you unhappy."
After a quick reflection, the man slowly asked:
"It's because... last night," he observed the change in her expression and continued to explain:
"I'm sorry. Because if I left you a message at that time, or contacted you halfway, my whereabouts would be exposed to the forces that have been secretly spying on and monitoring my whereabouts. If they knew that my weakness is you..." At this point, the words are self-evident.
Hei Huomian subconsciously hugged the person in front of him tightly, "Believe me, I don't have the slightest intention of distrusting you, or thinking that it's not a big deal even if I don't let you know my whereabouts."
Bai Shuiru couldn't help but lower her eyes and sigh softly:
All the explanations were reasonable, even the points that Bai Shuiru had never thought of were explained by Hei Huomian one by one.
There were many people lurking around me who were not good for me or Hei Huomian. Even Hao Mianmian and Qi Chu who were temporarily missing, I don’t know what their ultimate purpose was. Who can guarantee that the people around us now are clean?
Indeed, I am a little worried about gains and losses.
I wasn't like this before!
Seeing that the girl's expression had calmed down, Hei Huomian breathed a sigh of relief, put his left hand together with her right hand, put his right index and middle finger together and placed them on his lips, muttered a few words, and then pointed to his left hand.
Instantly, a black line segment came out from the middle finger of his left hand, quickly wrapped around the middle finger of her right hand, and then disappeared.
"This is made with our souls as the medium. It can sense where I am going and display a map."
Seeing that the little girl didn't care and ignored him, Hei Huomian raised his eyes to look at the black line between their middle fingers and said, "Go ahead."
The ink line stood up to form a fat brush, rubbing against Bai Shuiru's hand, and then against Hei Huomian's arm. Then, at the urging of the man's eyes, he arrogantly put his hands on his hips, twisted his fat body and walked to the open space in front of the two of them. He gestured for a while with his hands and feet, and then it dispersed into countless ink dots, forming the 3D earth, Biluo Kingdom, Shenta City, and the chairman's office on the top floor of Mingxin Building. Finally, it formed an image of two big-headed dolls, a man and a woman, kissing each other, which was played in a continuous brainwashing loop.
"It can only sense your whereabouts and display them, but not mine?" Bai Shuiru got angry and looked at the man sideways for confirmation.
"Of course, how dare I locate my wife~?" Hei Huomian immediately raised his hands in surrender and signaled with his eyes for the ink line to prove it.
Mo Xian had already understood what he meant. He stuck out his tongue at Hei Huomian, turned his back and twisted his buttocks. Then he jumped in front of Bai Shuiru, bowed 90 degrees and saluted, which made Bai Shuiru burst out laughing.
"Look, Mo Xian has sworn allegiance to you without you asking him to, and he's totally ignoring me." Hei Huomian immediately took credit and nudged Bai Shuiru with his shoulder, pouting his lips and snorting, "You're still judging your husband by your own standards..."
Bai Shuiru's anger had calmed down, and she had already started eating heartily with chopsticks in her left hand and spoon in her right hand. However, every time she picked up a dish and put it in her mouth, it was knocked away by the man sitting next to her who had no one to please.
"Aiya~, Hei Huo Mian~!" Bai Shuiru stamped her feet in annoyance, put down her chopsticks and spoon, hugged the man's arm and shook it constantly, her already soft voice added a little bit of complaints, begging:
"Mianmian, boyfriend, fiancé, please don't bother me. I'm really in a hurry. I'll go to work overtime after I eat. You should eat slowly and take a nap later."
Bai Shuiru keenly noticed the slight movement of the man's lips, and immediately gave him a kiss on each cheek, not forgetting to kiss him on the lips again. Only then did the man sigh helplessly and pick up the chopsticks to serve her food.
After serving the dishes, Hei Huomian picked up a wet towel and wiped the juice from her lips. "As I told you before, you have almost finished designing your entry, right?"
"Yeah!" The girl continued to devour the soup, gulped down the remaining half bowl, and nodded, "I'm using my spare time to work on the entry for the competition. By the way," the girl picked up a shrimp from the man's bowl and put it into her mouth, "Are you kidding me? It's been half a month, and I haven't seen the company announce any competitions. If you lie to me, I won't let you go."
Hei Huomian clenched her fist with her big hand, brought it to her lips and kissed it, and asked back:
"When will I... I'm giving you more time to design your work."
Bai Shuiru grabbed Hei Huomian's loosened tie knot, squinted her eyes and raised her eyebrows, "This is not good, you must announce the competition immediately when you get to work. Otherwise, I won't participate." Then she pretended to tighten the tie knot.
"You're murdering your husband!" The man stuck out his tongue, rolled his eyes, and took the opportunity to hug the girl. "I just want to provide you with a better environment to help you design a work that you think is perfect. As for anything else, you don't need to think about it at all. I'm here."
Bai Shuiru pushed Hei Huomian away and was about to state her position again when she saw the man raise his hands in surrender. "Okay, okay, I'll arrange for Li You to do it when I go to work this afternoon."
Bai Shuiru, who was flattered, nodded halfway, then suddenly changed her tone:
"I have one more request!"
