After breaking up, I picked up a beautiful vampire girl.

"Obviously I was still in the university classroom yesterday, but today I am just like those agents in the movie. Do you know how many people are surrounding us today?"

"There were hundreds of people, all armed with weapons. Damn, have you seen Kung Fu in that scene? Do the Ax Gang know about it?"

Li Muhan kept talking, but Xia Yue next to him didn't answer a word.

In the end, Li Muhan couldn't bear it anymore.

He pressed Xia Yue's shoulders and forced her to face him.

"......what."

Xia Yue asked with a somewhat evasive look.

"It's just her scent, can't you just cover it up with your own scent?"

After saying that, Li Muhan hugged the girl's petite body tightly. Because the girl was petite, this hug almost made her feet leave the ground.

"...Let go."

"Don't let it go."

"Um, I can't reach the ground."

"It's okay. I'll hold you."

"Okay, okay... I'm not angry anymore, let me go."

Li Muhan did not let go, but leaned close to Xia Yue's ear and said something.

“Is the smell overpowering now?”

"Humph."

All he got was a cold snort from Xia Yue, but Li Muhan knew that she was no longer angry.

In the narrow elevator, Li Muhan hugged the petite body tightly in his arms. At this moment, he wanted to cry, wanted to yell and wanted to vent.

Because until now, my mind is still filled with the desperate expressions on the faces of those imprisoned girls.

It was Huo Tian’s expression when he looked at himself at the end.

The Tang sword was in the long bag on his back and was very heavy.

Because what he represents is too great.

"sorry......"

Li Muhan's "I'm sorry" was said to Xia Yue, and perhaps also to those girls whom he could never save.

Maybe it was also said to Huo Tian.

Captain, you said I was unworthy, and perhaps that's true. I don't have the same lofty ideals as you, nor the spirit to dedicate myself to humanity.

On the way home, Li Muhan kept looking at Xia Yue with a smile on his face.

"What are you laughing at?" Xia Yue turned around and looked at him with her hands behind her back and asked.

"I remember a sentence."

"what?"

"If I put down the knife, I can't protect you. If I pick up the knife, I can't hug you!"

"Who said that? That's so corny."

Xia Yue was amused by this sentence.

"I don't know the original source, but as far as I know, it was said by a champion support."

"I don't understand what you're saying, idiot."

Xia Yue quickened her pace, and Li Muhan quickly followed behind her.

So, Captain, I also have people I want to protect, not that many, just this one. If the reason is so selfish, can I still hold this knife with peace of mind?

......

After arriving home, Li Muhan was extremely sleepy, perhaps because of the battle. After taking a shower, he hurriedly lay down on the sofa.

Just vaguely, he felt something getting into his quilt and shrinking into his arms.

You don't have to think about it to know that it was Xia Yue.

Li Muhan was a little helpless. What's the point of sleeping on the sofa? Isn't this a waste of a bed?

It's better to just let the two of them sleep in the same bed.

With such random thoughts, he couldn't help but hug the figure in his arms and fell into a deep sleep.

At the same time, in the office of the deputy director of the Special Administration Bureau.

Lin Ze handed a cup of coffee to Lin Ziyu in front of him.

"Well done! Even after such a long absence from missions, Team 7 still hasn't lost its edge. The final outcome is obviously something none of us want to see, but that was Huo Tian's own choice. Humans are always so good at disguising themselves. Even I thought he had let it go..."

Lin Ziyu picked up the coffee, took a sip, and seemed to not like it so he put it back. He never liked dealing with big shots. Rather than being called to the office by his boss to drink coffee, he preferred to stay in a dark room and tinker with the computer, hiding himself in the virtual world of the Internet.

"Thank you, Forest Bureau."

He did not respond to the topic about Huo Tian raised by Lin Ze, which was a very smart decision.

"Do you accept my proposal?"

Lin Ze sat back on the office chair and asked with a smile while stirring the coffee with a spoon.

Lin Ziyu gave a bitter smile.

"Director Lin, thank you for your kindness to me, but I cannot be the captain of the seventh team. I have a recommended candidate."

"Tell me."

Lin Ze still kept smiling.

Until Lin Ziyu said his name.

"Li Muhan."

Chapter 31 It smells so good

Lin Ze was a little confused when Lin Ziyu mentioned Li Muhan's name.

She tilted her head slightly and looked at this talented boy who had just turned eighteen.

"Don't you want to carry on your captain's legacy?"

Lin Ziyu lowered his head, looked at the coffee in the cup, smiled bitterly and said.

"Perhaps the person who can best inherit his legacy is Li Muhan. The person who witnessed the captain's final blow was also Li Muhan."

Lin Ze nodded slightly.

She looked at the appointment letter as captain of the seventh team that she had just handed over and asked one last question.

"Are you sure? Sign now and I won't regret it."

"Don't ask anymore, Director Lin. I don't have the ability to do so. And I think that's what you meant, too. Otherwise, you wouldn't have given the Fu Jiang Zhen Mo to him for safekeeping."

Lin Ze smiled bitterly.

"Who knows? They might return it to me tomorrow morning."

"He won't."

Lin Ziyu was very determined. This seemed to be the most determined sentence he had ever said since he was born.

"I know he won't."

So Lin Ze didn't insist anymore. He would handle other things and now it depended on Li Muhan's opinion.

Early the next morning, Li Muhan was called to the Special Management Bureau by Lin Ze.

"Uh, I didn't expect you to call me here on your own initiative."

Sitting in Lin Ze's office, Li Muhan felt a little embarrassed. He thought Lin Ze asked him to return the knife, so he deliberately put the long knife in the bag behind him.

You have to know that he took the elevator from the back door of the bank. He had a knife on his back. If someone saw him, he would never be able to wash himself clean even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

"So what do you think about it?"

"It's only 9 o'clock in the morning. You're so anxious just now getting to work."

Lin Ze smiled slightly and said jokingly, "Of course, you are a talent after all. I value talent the most."

"To be honest, I don't really feel anything."

Li Muhan expressed his inner thoughts.

"I picked up a vampire, I have a demon living in my body, there are all kinds of aliens in this world, and there is a special management bureau to manage them, and Captain Huo Tian's final battle yesterday, I feel like I'm in a very long dream."

Lin Ze did not interrupt him, but listened to him quietly.

"I'm not some great man, Director Lin. If I didn't have the demon inside me, I believe you wouldn't even look at me. An innocent man is guilty of possessing a treasure. Now that I have this kind of power, it means I'll be targeted by you. To be honest, if my power was strong enough, strong enough to ignore your Special Management Bureau, perhaps I would reject you."

Li Muhan thought about it for a long time. Having grown up in an orphanage, he was wary of everything, but he also learned one thing, which was to be tactful.

"I won't hide it from you. I can join the Special Management Bureau, but I will only use this place as a place to learn how to control my own power, how to become stronger, and how to see the world more comprehensively. This is not because of you, not because of Captain Huo Tian, ​​but simply out of my own will."

Li Muhan stared at Lin Ze, observing her expression carefully. She had to understand how the other party viewed her in this negotiation.

Lin Ze stopped stirring the coffee. Although her expression remained indifferent, she had to admit that her opinion of the child had changed a little.

I originally thought that Huo Tian’s death in battle last night would only have two effects on him.

First, infect him, move him, make him join wholeheartedly, and work hard for the Special Management Bureau out of passion. If this is really the case, then in Lin Ze's eyes, Li Muhan may always be just a tool, a piece of unpolished jade, a knife, nothing more.

Second, it frightened him, making him timid and cautious after truly seeing the world. He did not dare to join the Special Management Bureau, nor did he dare to face his own power, let alone see the world.

Perhaps by then Lin Ze would introduce him to a psychologist, and then use some power to arrange for him to live in a unique place built by the Special Management Bureau.

But now Li Muhan has given a third way.

study?

This was the first time Lin Ze heard someone describe the Special Management Bureau in this way. Everyone who came here had their own reasons. Some of them had their families destroyed by aliens.

Most of the humans who join the Special Management Bureau have lost their families and loved ones at the hands of aliens, and they are filled with hatred towards aliens.

Most of the aliens join the Special Management Bureau because they have accepted this era of human rule. They are tired of fighting and going with the flow. Instead of being restricted everywhere, they would rather find a place to settle down.

Whether they are human or alien, the first thing they must learn after joining the Special Management Bureau is to learn to accept each other's existence.

This is a painful and long process. Some people who cannot survive it will have their memories erased and return to the human world to continue living.

But the boy in front of him is different. He was a human at first, but now he is a demon.

In other words, he possesses both human and alien identities. He does not need to let go of any hatred, nor does he need to force himself to integrate into human society.

He has an innate advantage, which is a precedent that the Special Management Bureau has never had.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this unique perspective that he can take a different path from others.

"You're so interesting."

Lin Ze looked at Li Muhan and couldn't help but say this with a smile, which made Li Muhan a little confused.

"Sure, you can study here, make money here, or even pick up girls here. That's all fine."

"...Not really, not really."

"And I promise you, Li Muhan, once you fully master the demonic power within you, you can leave the Special Management Bureau at any time without any restrictions."

Li Muhan was a little confused. Since there was a Tianhai City Special Management Bureau, there must be other special management bureaus, and even a general bureau.

Will it be effective if Lin Ze speaks alone?

But now, Li Muhan saw a promise in Lin Ze's eyes.

Although the woman in front of him said that she had an intersection with him because of the power in her body, he had to admit it.

She is the friendliest person in the world to Gu Ruoxi, besides her parents and Xia Yue.
