The Emperor of Hell's Green Plum Pillow She Escaped Again
Chapter 87 Wail
"Count it yourself, how many times have you failed in your duties?"
Hei Huomian sat at the desk, checking the steeply rising data in the bar chart on the computer, and did not forget to scold the twelve secret guards who were neatly lined up in front of him, all lowering their heads in fear.
The man's expression was gloomy, almost blending in with his sunglasses, making it even more difficult to guess what his next decision would be.
"We are aware of our mistakes. Please punish us, Lord of Hell."
The leader of the secret guards led the others in blaming themselves in unison, and their heads, which were originally lowered, lowered even lower.
"You just say this after making a mistake and let it go? Do you think I'm easy to fool?"
As he was talking, there was a knock on the door. After answering the door, Bai Shuiru poked half of her face in, smiled at Hei Huomian who was smiling at her, and said:
"You've been working for a long time. You must be tired."
The twelve secret guards immediately fled to the corner of the study room when she appeared, huddled together, and looked at her tremblingly; especially the two who were stunned by her, who squeezed into the innermost part of the floating pile like snakes afraid of ropes, and just wanted to shout:
"Don't come over here, I'll yell if you come over again~!"
Hei Huomian seemed to have anticipated that Bai Shuiru would knock on the door of his study tonight, and he ordered the secret guards to take off the special certificates of the underworld that could resist Bai Shuiru's abilities and stack them neatly in a corner of his desk.
Seeing this, Bai Shuiru hurried to the desk, frowned and pouted at Heihuo Mian.
"You promised me at dinner that you wouldn't hold them accountable! Especially the two who were knocked unconscious by me!"
"It was my own willful selfishness that got rid of them and didn't care about their business."
As the distance between the twelve secret guards and Bai Shuiru shortened, they huddled together more and more tremblingly. If they had not been summoned by the Hades, they would have wanted to slip through the wall and escape immediately.
Hei Huomian glared at the little girl unhappily, then sighed softly with helplessness and doting:
"Ask them if I'm holding you responsible for running away from home?"
Bai Shuiru looked at the twelve secret guards, and after they all shook their heads in denial, he immediately grinned at Hei Huomian:
"I was wrong about you. I apologize."
"Fei asked me to invite you down to drink milk and bird's nest to help you sleep~!"
Hei Huomian checked his watch and asked the little girl for permission in a gentle voice.
"Give me two more minutes, okay?"
"Only two minutes."
Bai Shuiru counted down, waved goodbye to the twelve secret guards, closed the door and left.
Hei Huomian waved his hand to let the secret guards retreat, glanced at Li You who was trying hard to suppress his smile, and silently ordered:
"I just checked the statistics of the growth of the underworld's floating mouths in the first half of the year. The growth rate has increased by more than 80% compared to the same period last year."
"The most important thing is that I took a quick look at the total number of deaths reported in the last quarter. Not only is there a huge gap between the number of deaths reported in the news on the human world, but even the official complete death toll statistics from the human world and the earthly government do not match."
"You secretly investigate the reasons for the data discrepancies and compile a report for me as soon as possible."
Li You was smart and immediately understood what Hei Huomian meant:
"Is the boss suspicious..."
Hei Huomian nodded gently, "Go ahead."
More than half an hour later, two figures, one tall and one short, leisurely strolled outside the manor.
Bai Shuiru burped lightly, rubbed her stomach slightly, and sighed:
"Tonight's milk bird's nest is so delicious!"
"Of course you did. After all, you added two cans of chocolate hazelnut ice cream and one can of mango ice cream to your bowl of bird's nest."
Hei Huomian put his hands in his trouser pockets leisurely, his smile was full of doting:
"Only my mother tolerates your waste and praises your creativity."
"But it tastes even better with ice cream~!"
The little girl walked backwards in front of the man, pouting her lips, exposing his hypocrisy:
"I don't know who it was, but he was the one who snatched the bird's nest from my bowl and even suggested I add sesame and peanut ice cream...ah~!"
"Be careful~."
The man immediately reached out and held Bai Shuiru's waist, sighed, and said gently: "Walk backwards without looking at the road, and you won't be afraid of falling."
"With you here, I'm not afraid~!"
The little girl stood firmly with the help of the man, then raised her eyebrows at him triumphantly, still with her hands behind her back, and continued walking backwards.
The man shook his head and sighed, then stared at her unconsciously.
With the gentle moonlight, Bai Shuiru saw the undisguised emotions in the man's eyes, which were gradually becoming uncontrollable.
……miss?
Bai Shuiru was tilting her head, trying to empathize with Hei Huomian's emotions, as if she could hear him whispering in her ear, and she slowly said:
"I'm glad you took the initiative to contact me at noon."
"what?"
Hei Huomian cleared his throat, gave the little girl a deep and resentful look, stood up straight from where he was leaning towards her, walked around her, and strode forward.
"I'll make another bowl of milk bird's nest with sesame and peanut ice cream when I get home~!"
"Hei Huo Mian, you are not allowed to snatch it from me~!"
The two of them chased towards the mansion, one in front and one behind, seemingly keeping a distance, but the shadows behind them loyally overlapped and entangled occasionally, and then they restrained and observed etiquette to stabilize at a distance of five centimeters.
The deeper the night gets, the harder it is to conceal the desires deep in one’s heart.
Two trucks, each loaded with a maximum 45HQ high-cube container, drove smoothly from Relian Kingdom to the border of Biluo Kingdom.
In the dark, stuffy and cramped container, there are about a hundred young and middle-aged people aged about 18 to 30 crowded together.
Some of them tried to kill time by taking naps in the bumpy, sweaty and stuffy environment; some tried to adjust their sore backs and necks caused by sitting for a long time in the small space; some could not bear it anymore and could not help but stand up and try to stretch their hands and feet, but the next moment their space was occupied by others and they slightly stretched their knee joints that had been bent for more than ten hours.
Whispering in the darkness, especially like a ghost's bewitching whisper:
"I wonder where we are now?"
"According to the time, we should be able to enter the border of Biluo Country soon."
"As long as we can get to Biluo Country, everything will be fine!"
After an unknown amount of time, the truck gradually slowed down and stopped, and then the sound of the cab door closing was heard from outside the container.
"Are you ready to cross the border?"
"Then will they let us out and move around?"
Someone said "hush" and whispered:
"Don't let anyone hear any noise here, or we're all done for!"
Everyone fell silent upon hearing this, even trying to hold their breath.
It was unknown how long there was silence outside the container, and suddenly there was the sound of a heavy truck approaching.
Then, the container seemed to be picked up and moved by a loading and unloading robot arm.
The bodies of the people in the box trembled slightly as they moved, and they could only guess the actions of the people outside the box by relying on their hearing; but they could not hear any noise from any mechanical operation.
"It seems that...something is connected to the container."
Someone made a low guess.
"Shh~!"
Everyone was looking up at the top of the container in unison, when suddenly, a strong black and purple light penetrated into the container, dispersing into balls of light that rushed towards each man in the container.
Amid screams of terror, everyone was pushing and crowding, trying to pull others to be their scapegoats, even if it meant dying just one second later.
Because of the gathering effect of the metal material of the container, the screams and howls of those hundreds of poor people were amplified several times.
However, soon, no more cries for help or wailing were heard from the container.
In the end, without exception, everyone had their energy instantly sucked away by the ball of light, and became shriveled corpses like mummies, piled up messily in the box.
At the same time, an inexplicable and powerful electric current surged out of the container, and was rapidly transmitted to distant places through the temporarily connected long cables. After being stored in the batteries of the power substation, it was transmitted to major cities in the country of Biluo.
Li You followed the clues all the way and saw flames rising into the sky two or three kilometers away.
When he stepped on the accelerator and sped away about fifty meters, the raging fire completely burned the two containers, leaving only the creaking sound of the metal being burned by the flames and deforming and collapsing.
As if it was a psychological effect, Li You vaguely heard shrill wails and curses one after another, overwhelming his head.
There was a faint black and purple light flickering on the ground nearby. Li You broke off a branch and pulled out the glowing scroll. He picked it up and looked at it. He was immediately shocked.
Before Li You could take a closer look and confirm, he sensed an evil aura approaching from not far away, and hurriedly put the scroll into the inner pocket of his suit.
Just as he put it away, he saw two familiar figures, one black and one white, floating and flashing in front of him.
Black and White Impermanence nodded to Li You and asked, "Assistant Li, why are you in this remote place?"
Li You wiped the sweat from his forehead caused by being close to the heat source and said:
"Oh, I was helping the Hades catch fireflies, and I swam here without realizing it."
"Catch fireflies?" Hei Wuchang Jiaocheng couldn't help but wonder.
"Hey~, you don't know, the Hades did everything he could to please that little girl."
"I bought an ice cream manufacturer just to produce sesame-flavored ice cream; I haven't seen fireflies for a long time, so I have to go out in the middle of the night to catch them..."
Li You counted Hei Huo Mian's "crimes" and begged for mercy in his heart:
Emperor of the Underworld, Emperor of the Underworld, boss, boss, I only made this up because I had no choice. Please don’t be angry!
Anger makes you old, Shui Ru might not like you anymore.
Bai Wuchang Shuimo sneered and continued:
"I didn't expect that when the Hades falls in love, he is willing to spend so much time and effort on his girlfriend."
As he spoke, he covered his lips with his hand, moved closer to Li You, and asked in a low voice:
"Hey, by the way, is that little girl the brush that Hades lost before?"
As Shui Mo spoke, he took out a bag of dried mangoes from his pocket, tore open the package and handed it to Li You.
"Hey! Who knows?"
Li You was not polite either. He picked up a dried mango and continued to "spread rumors" while eating it:
"Does the Hades need to explain to us who he likes? Don't you think so?"
Li You, who was "blackmailing" his boss, began to speak without restraint.
"He is equally rich and powerful in the human world and in the underworld. He is handsome and has a good figure. It would be a piece of cake for him to seduce any beautiful young woman with a hot body."
"I'm afraid he also thinks it's fun to 'put some thought' into it. Anyway, it's just a matter of talking, and I'm the one doing all the work."
Hei Wuchang Jiaocheng saw that Li You and Shui Mo had gone too far, so he looked at the time on the death card and reminded:
"Shui Mo, our soul-binding time has already passed. If we don't take action now, this quarter's performance will be dragged down again."
"Oh, yes, yes! First things first."
Shui Mo quickly handed the dried mango to Li You, took out his tablet and opened the Soul Binding Order, shaking his head and reading:
"They were smuggling across the border, but were neglected by unscrupulous smugglers, which led to a fire that burned 426 people to death..."
"So many?!" Li You couldn't help but exclaim. "Those snakeheads don't fear the law or retribution!"
"Assistant Li has been in the human world for a long time. He has seen all kinds of man-made disasters. What's this? The shipwreck in the neighboring country didn't cause as many casualties as this time, but its nature was even worse."
Seeing Li You's expression of pity and anger, Jiao Cheng took the opportunity when Shui Mo read out the names of the dead and checked the number of people, and asked:
"Speaking of which, Assistant Li came early. What did he see and hear?"
"I wish I hadn't heard their last cries of pain."
Li You couldn't bear to watch any longer, so he turned his head away and said, "I won't disturb you two from working."
The three of them said goodbye to each other and went about their own business.
