Transmigrating into a Man's Wife: I Share the Pain with the Male Protagonist

"Sir...even if we all turned into cats, we would not be able to save the lady." Guozi didn't have the heart to expose Li Mofu's thoughts, but this matter was too dangerous.

"You can't turn into cats, only I can." Li Mofu said with his arms crossed.

Mo Yi held his forehead, feeling the wound hurt even more.

"Don't look like you're not going to make it. I have a plan!" Li Mofu said.

Then, Li Mofu quietly told them about his plan. At first, Mo Yi and Guozi were not very supportive, but later the three of them sat by the stream and discussed it one by one.

Just after midnight the next night, Mo Yi appeared in the alley opposite the government office, holding a sword and holding Li Mofu, who had turned into a black cat. They had been hiding in the woods not far away since the afternoon.

"I've tied the lid of the fire starter with a string so it won't fall off. Be careful when using it and don't burn your cat's hair." Mo Yi warned while looking at Heimao with a complicated expression.

If Li Mofu had not turned into a cat in front of him, he would never have believed that there were such magical and absurd things in the world.

The black cat looked at him with dead eyes. If it weren't for the lighter in its mouth, it would definitely say "nagging".

Mo Yi hung the string of the tinderbox on the black cat, then subconsciously touched its head, "Be more careful."

After saying that, Mo Yi stood up, drew his knife and went to the yamen. Li Mofu, who had turned into a black cat, hid by the wall at the entrance of the alley and watched Mo Yi fly over the high wall of the yamen. After a while, a whistle and a flurry of footsteps were heard from inside.

"There are assassins!!"

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! There's an assassin! Catch the assassin!"

"He's going to run away! Chase him, chase him!"

"Go report to the county magistrate! Quick!"

Li Mofu hunched over, his deep blue cat-like eyes allowing him to see clearly in the darkness. Mo Yi killed the gatekeeper and immediately opened the gate and ran out. The petty officials who followed him thought Mo Yi had succeeded and chased him out, more than a dozen of them.

Cats are very fast and have pads on their feet, so they make almost no sound when walking. In addition, Li Mofu's fur is so black that it blends into the shadows. He successfully and quickly rushed into the door, then squatted in the shadow by the wall, motionless.

After waiting for a while, a man with a big belly, wearing only his inner garment and a coat, came out. Seeing the corpse on the ground, he was furious. "It must be the group from the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion again! Damn it, the Marquis of Wu'an is so far away that he can't even protect his own daughter-in-law, but those slaves are so loyal!"

After saying that, the county magistrate loudly ordered, "The rest of you go chase that assassin! Damn it! He's bullying me so much that I'll skin him alive and beat him to death! The rest of you, go guard Madam Lu!"

"Yes!"

At this moment, the county magistrate suddenly thought of something and said, "No, I have to go and see for myself if the person is still there! Come with me!"

The group of them split up, one going in and the other going out. Li Mofu waited for them to leave and quickly followed their shadows. They were very conspicuous with the lanterns in their hands.

The county magistrate and the five clerks walked very fast. After a while, they stopped in front of a wing room in the backyard of the yamen.

"Knock, knock, knock!" One of the clerks knocked on the door hard.

There was no sound from inside the door.

"Open it directly!" the county magistrate shouted, and the clerk unlocked the door and pushed it open.

In the side room, Wang Ruiyan and Qiuxiang were tied to a chair with their hands tied behind their backs. Their sudden intrusion drew Qiuxiang's loud scolding, "What do you want to do at this time! My wife is of a distinguished status, how can I allow you to be so presumptuous!"

The county magistrate had come to see if the man was still there, but when he saw both of them looking at him angrily, he couldn't help but bow. "Sorry for disturbing you so late at night, Madam Lu. We are also under the emperor's orders. Please forgive us."
