Chapter 111 Disguise
Chapter 111 Disguise
The female anchor of the supernatural novel radio drama then broadcast softly:
"Mo Yun was puzzled: I didn't put any red dates in it, and even if it was red dates, it wouldn't be so elastic.
She scooped up two, filtered out the soup, and looked at them carefully..."
"It's actually two human eyes... Eye King, please!"
The excellent female host's immersive voice, perfectly matched with the music in the background that closely fits the atmosphere, suddenly startled Bai Shuiru, and the spoon fell on the glass plate with a clang.
Bai Shuiru turned down the volume on her phone, took a long breath, and looked at the foreign object she had dug out from the bottom of the ice cream.
It appears to be a small paper roll wrapped in an edible wrapper.
She used a tissue to open the outer wrapping paper and unfolded it. There was a stick figure drawing of a kite on the small paper roll.
Bai Shuiru had an idea and started to use a spoon to dig into other plates to eat most of the dishes. Sure enough, he found the same paper roll in the remaining seven dishes and one soup.
Bai Shuiru moved the dinner plate away and spread the paper rolls in front of him one by one, examining them one by one.
Could it be that... Hei Huomian wants to play some game with me?
puzzle?
Bai Shuiru arranged nine pieces of paper into a nine-square grid and was adjusting their positions when she heard:
"Sister Ru Ru~!"
"Wow woof, woof!"
Hei Huowan stretched out his hands and rushed towards Bai Shuiru, then quickly slipped into her arms, hugged her neck and acted coquettishly.
The golden retriever, Youtiao, also circled around her feet and barked.
"Mom and Dad said that we can't disturb Mianmian and you. When Wanwan saw Mianmian go out, she quickly came over with Youtiaotiao to play with her sister!"
"I haven't seen Wanwan for a few days. She's gained weight again!"
Bai Shuiru picked up Nuo Tuanzi and let him sit on her lap. She kissed his cheek and pointed to the map in front of her:
"Wanwan, help me take a look. Is this the map of the manor? Is this the glass greenhouse?"
The map does not show any directions, paths, buildings, or even the outline of the entire area for reference. It only uses simple drawings of kites, flames, brushes, etc. as markers.
She subconsciously pointed her fingertips to the place marked with a red "heart" on the map on the table, and a ripple inexplicably spread in her heart.
What does Hei Huomian want me to find?
Any secrets about him?
"This is the greenhouse. Wanwan helped Uncle Nan draw a map of the manor!"
Nuotuanzi shrank his body, slid from Baishuiru's arms to the ground, raised his chubby hand and pointed in the direction of the greenhouse, and ordered in a baby voice:
"Youtiao, let's go dig for treasure~!"
Hell.
The Ten Yama Kings saw Hei Huo Mian walking into the hall in high spirits, and they looked at each other and saluted in unison:
"We were shocked to hear that the Dark Emperor had met with an accident, so we came to see him and express our regards."
Hei Huomian calmly signaled that the Ten Kings of Hell had finished their ceremony, sat down at the head of the table, crossed his long legs leisurely, and got straight to the point:
"I have something important to do and don't want to waste time."
"Although the incident last night happened suddenly, there are too many suspicious points, and it is obviously related to the large number of people who have met with unexpected accidents before the deadline. Everyone should do their best to cooperate with Li You's investigation. That's it."
After Heihuomian finished speaking, he stood up and was about to leave, but was stopped by King Qin Guang:
"Emperor Ming, please stay."
"I heard that Emperor Ming was going to send someone to Siyuan to check for Quan'ai's whereabouts?"
When Hei Huomian turned around and glanced at King Qin Guang again, there was a faint green light flickering in his eyes, but he did not say a word. The corners of his lips curled up slightly in encouragement, concealing his sarcasm.
"Emperor of the Underworld," King Qin Guang subconsciously swallowed his saliva and took a half step back, slowing down before continuing:
"Since the previous Hades Emperor, your father Song Zheng, put down the Hao Zhao rebellion and pardoned the rebels to stabilize the people's hearts in the underworld, Quan Ai has been meditating and receiving punishment in the Siyuan.
Since then, thanks to your open, inclusive, and multilateral cooperation policies, the Underworld has been developing peacefully. If the incident last night is investigated together with Quan Ai, I am afraid that once it gets out, it will only make those who were pardoned that year feel uneasy, and the rapidly developing Underworld will fall into turmoil again. "
"My father is my father, and I am me. The decisions he made then do not mean I will follow them now."
"I still say the same thing: As long as I am still the Emperor of the Underworld, I have the final say in the underworld."
Hei Huo Mian said this and left, but this time the Ten Yama Kings all bowed to him and tried to persuade him to stay:
"I have heard that the Hades Emperor is worried about a girl and is in a mess. You are compassionate and sympathetic, not a cold and eccentric ruler like Hao Zhao, so please consider the peace of the underworld and think twice before you act."
When Hei Huomian heard Bai Shuiru mentioned, he stopped unconsciously and looked back impatiently at the Ten Kings of Hell who were bowing.
He immediately lowered his eyes to look at his watch, as if he was thinking of her. The corners of his lips unconsciously curled up slightly and then forced themselves to straighten, but the arc still retained a lingering feeling.
"Let me make it short: the peace of the underworld must not be disturbed, and those who disturb the human world and damage the reputation of the underworld must be strictly investigated. I will never tolerate it."
"We must confirm that Quan Ai is still being punished in Siyuan. There is no need to alert the relevant members who participated in the rebellion, but other directions must be thoroughly investigated."
"The Emperor of Hell is wise."
The Ten Yama Kings watched Hei Huo Mian and Li You leave the hall, and immediately began to discuss:
"I never thought that Mu Xian would be blinded by lust one day!"
"Don't men think with their lower body?"
"I just didn't expect that Mu Xian, who had been suppressing himself for decades, would go so crazy once he got involved in sex."
"Where did the woman who charmed Mu Xian come from?"
Li You deliberately slowed down his pace after walking out of the hall. After roughly hearing the discussions in the hall, he quickened his pace to catch up with Hei Huomian who was slowing down and waiting for him, and gave him a wink.
"Do as I told you in the study."
Li You bowed and nodded to indicate "I understand", then teleported away.
The bright moon hangs high in the sky above the manor.
As soon as Hei Huomian stepped into Sucong Manor, Li You invited him back to Ming·Xin Group to handle official business. Because he was informed by the twelve secret guards at any time about the close protection of Bai Shuiru, Hei Huomian was able to concentrate and efficiently sign and review the official business that had to be authorized for execution before tomorrow.
When he returned to Sucong Manor again, the moon had been blurred by the dawn in the east.
Hei Huomian knocked on Bai Shuiru's bedroom door twice and then pushed it open.
The dim and soft bedside lamp and two jasmine-scented candles create a warm yet lazy waiting in the bedroom.
Hei Huomian carefully sat down on the edge of Bai Shuiru's bed, pulled up the thin quilt for her, and gently lifted a strand of hair that was lazily hanging on her cheek. Then he closed the black diamond flame necklace jewelry box that she had placed beside her pillow and placed it on the bedside table. Only then did he notice what the little girl was holding in her hand.
He leaned over and lowered his head to see the old copper key half exposed in her palm and the traces of dirt remaining between her neatly trimmed nails.
He couldn't help but hold her hand holding the key and kiss it gently over and over again.
Little brush, you found the key I gave you!
You still remember the "secret code" between you and me, but you can't recognize me...
But it doesn’t matter, I finally found you, and you never despised me.
Hei Huomian blushed when he recalled the time when the little girl kissed the back of his neck to comfort him.
He hesitated for half a minute, but finally, with a red face, he leaned over and gently kissed her plump forehead.
Good night, my little brush.
When Hei Huomian turned and walked towards his bed, Bai Shuiru turned over without warning, her pretty eyebrows slightly frowned, just like the nightmare that had been haunting her.
