I drew the Tiger Talisman and the Sheep Talisman.

The bond with Exusiai has been greatly enhanced.

My bond with Swire has slightly improved.

Having a cheat code is great; I can easily do things that I couldn't do before. I feel like the days ahead will get sweeter and sweeter.

While thinking about these things, Bai Xun's hands were not idle. He sat up and lined up the holographic projector full of study materials, toilet paper, lubricant, and the petite Mébius on the bedside table.

Since things have come to this, let's just apply some glue first (???)

..................................

Meanwhile, in the basement.

Mebius's eyes were slightly closed, as if he was leaning back in his wheelchair, taking a short nap.

The electric wheelchair, which was generated out of thin air, was continuously flowing into the doll's body, allowing Mebius to gradually activate and control it.

Although the Black Tower Doll and the Mebius Memory, which specializes in the field of life, are not very compatible because they are not made of flesh and blood, it is still a creation of a genius and its quality is absolutely top-notch.

"Woo——"

But just as the girl was recharging, Mebius suddenly felt a strange sensation in his body and slowly opened his eyes with a soft whimper.

Her small hands instinctively covered her lower abdomen, and her delicate face flushed an unnatural red.

"Huh? What... happened?"

Another subtle sensation came out of nowhere, causing Mebius to grip the armrests of his wheelchair tightly and grit his teeth to suppress the embarrassing sound that almost escaped his lips.

Mebius's amber snake eyes scanned the surroundings, looking around the basement but not finding the doll body he had previously used, making him instantly realize what had happened.

"Damn it, it must have been Bai Xun who did it!"

Although it's unclear why his consciousness, even after being transferred into the Black Tower Doll, still maintains a connection with that doll, the unusual situation he's currently experiencing is undoubtedly related to Bai Xun, who took away the petite Mebius.

His body, which was not yet fully under his control, became even more difficult to control due to the tremors in his consciousness, but Möbius still gritted his teeth and tried to control the electric wheelchair to go upstairs.

Then he was immediately stumped by the stairs and could only force himself to stand up from the wheelchair and climb up the stairs one step at a time, leaning on the handrail.

"Damn, damn, damn, damn!"

Mebius could shout out Bai Xun's name, but that would also attract the Spring Spirit, and Mebius was absolutely unwilling to let that foolish Herrscher see him in such a shameful state.

So even though her fair legs were trembling uncontrollably and her breathing was heavy and hot, Mebius still relied on his strong willpower to climb the stairs.

"As long as we can get to that place, as long as we can get to that place!"

Without hesitation, he climbed to the second floor. The power inside the Black Tower doll was already depleted. Mebius looked at the door in front of him, gritted his teeth, and was about to take another step.

Suddenly, as if struck by some unimaginable shock, his legs trembled and he collapsed to the ground, his pupils rolling upwards and his little tongue sticking out slightly.

"Bastard... bastard"

Mebius struggled to get up, but as the doll's energy was completely exhausted, he could only fall to the ground in despair, convulsing. His calves were stiff, and his round toes were gripping the soles of his shoes, but he could not move another step.

The consciousness of Mebius, trapped inside the Black Tower puppet, could only grit its teeth and endure the empathy transmitted from the body just a door away, until even its consciousness became hazy.

More than an hour later, while Bai Xun was in a state of enlightenment, pondering how to overcome the suffering of this land, he opened the door to clean the petite Mébius doll and noticed a black tower doll lying in front of his door, its breath sweet and its body trembling slightly.

He was immediately shocked, and almost dropped the petite Mebius in his hands.

"Mebius, what's wrong with you!"

Bai Xun anxiously tried to help Möbius up, but Möbius, who had exhausted his energy, was unable to make any effective response.

He could only muster the last bit of energy he had left and desperately raise his middle finger at Bai Xun.

This showed her final act of defiance.

Bai Xun, who was picking Mebius up from the ground, also noticed something was wrong.

Why is Mebius's skirt wet?

My body also felt unnaturally hot.

Bai Xun, noticing something amiss, unconsciously turned her gaze to the petite baby she had placed in Mebius's arms, and her expression gradually became strange.

"Alright, I'll take you back to recharge first. We can discuss the empathy issue again tomorrow when you're back to normal."

In response, Mebius simply continued to stubbornly raise his middle finger.

If she still had the strength to speak, she would definitely start breathing heavily on Bai Xun.

After carrying Mebius back to the basement and placing him back on the electric wheelchair to start charging, Bai Xun immediately turned and ran away.

Mebius, who restarted his device a few dozen seconds later, couldn't find anyone to vent his anger on, so he could only sulk and recharge in the basement.

...............................

The next day, just as dawn was breaking, Master Bai got up and began his busy day.

However, the reason Bai Xun got up so early was not because of his self-discipline, but because he was woken up by a phone call from the Guard Bureau.

Bai Xun groggily opened his eyes and answered the phone call from Swire, only to be instantly jolted awake by the girl's astonishingly loud voice.

"Bai Xun, come to the Guard Bureau immediately, it's urgent!"

"No, what are you yelling about so early in the morning? You little darling!"

Bai Xun got out of bed and replied irritably.

"What's wrong? You can't argue with Inspector Chen, so she's planning to arrest me again?"

He really couldn't understand what he had done to be summoned by the Royal Guard so early in the morning.

Although Bai Xun is a blood demon, he still considers himself a model citizen of Lungmen who is quite law-abiding.

"Of course not. My explanation to Chen about the secret case was that I paid money to bail you out. Although she was a little unhappy, there was nothing she could do."

This is something else!

Swire's voice sounded somewhat anxious.

"Lin Yuxia brought a blood-soaked corpse from the slums, and you're now a suspect. Come over here and explain yourself!"

Bai Xun: "Huh?"

I was sleeping at home when trouble came out of nowhere.

With such a case occurring in the slums, he, the Blood Demon, is undoubtedly the prime suspect.

Knowing this, Bai Xun didn't even bother to wash up. He pushed open the window, jumped out, and rushed towards the Guard Bureau.

Chapter 34 Chen: Swire and Bai Xun are a pair of adulterers!

Lungmen, Imperial Guard Bureau.

Chen, Shi Huaiya, and Lin Yuxia were staring at a gruesome corpse, each with their own thoughts.

The deceased was a young Ursus woman whose death was extremely gruesome. Her body was a horrifying mummified corpse, with all her blood drained away. Her neck had been brutally twisted off, with withered flesh and stark white bones exposed at the break.

“My father entrusted me with handling this matter entirely.”

The news of the body found in the slums reached the Rat King before it was sent to the Guard Bureau.

The Rat King seemed to intend to use this incident as a way to train Lin Yuxia, entrusting her with the entire investigation, which is why she rushed to the Guard Bureau.

Chen Huijie, meanwhile, stared at the horrifying, dried-up corpse, its blood drained, and a name instinctively surfaced in her mind.

"This kind of death... Blood Demon? Bai Xun?"

"impossible!"

Hearing Chen's mutterings, Swire almost instinctively retorted loudly to Chen Huijie, her intense reaction startling Chen so much that his tail practically stood on end.

Chen was just making casual guesses about the suspect based on normal thinking, and he didn't really think that Bai Xun would be the murderer in this case.

But seeing Swire's intense reaction, Chen Huijie couldn't help but recall the scene from a while ago when she was targeted by this despicable couple.

His eyes immediately turned resentful.

Normally, Chen Huijie would never bring her emotions into her work, but since the person opposite her was Swire, and it was obvious that Swire had brought her personal feelings into it first.

To this, Chen could only respond with "shinixiankaide".

"How can you be so sure? It's only natural to conclude that Bai Xun, the Blood Demon, is the prime suspect in this case, isn't it?"

"Bai Xun isn't that kind of person!"

Since he couldn't provide any real evidence, Swire could only offer this highly subjective explanation.

Miss Mouse, who was also from Lungmen F3, had no interest in getting involved in this almost customary fierce battle. Instead, she was seriously pondering what the two had said.

Recalling that blood demon with its rather unique abilities and personality, he couldn't help but speak softly.

"Let's find Bai first. I also think he's not the culprit, but as the Blood Demon, he might be able to find clues that we can't detect."

As she spoke, Lin Yuxia looked up at Swire, who nodded in agreement and took out her phone to dial Bai Xun's number.

Before long, Bai Xun, who had received the call, rushed to the Guard Bureau.

However, it was still much slower than driving an electric wheelchair, making Bai Xun somewhat regret lending the wheelchair to Snake so she could cosplay as a female version of Stephen Hawking.

So what exactly is going on?

Seeing that Bai Xunzhen had really come to the Guard Bureau, Chen Huijie's professional suspicions about him as a police superintendent immediately dissipated.

After all, if he really committed the crime, he should have fled after knowing about it, instead of walking right into the trap and coming to the Imperial Guard without saying a word.

"The body is here. It is estimated that the time of death was around midnight last night, and the location of death was a dark alley in the slums."

Based on the appearance of the body, we suspect the killer is the Blood Demon. What are your thoughts on this?

Lin Yuxia quickly provided the information she had gathered while observing Bai Xun's reaction.

Bai Xun merely glanced down at the horrifying mummified corpse, then frowned and shook his head.

"Not a Blood Demon, at least not a pure-blooded Blood Demon."

Bai Xun crouched down, examining the corpse's severed neck. He sniffed lightly, his nostrils flaring, his expression one of disgust.

"This is such an unseemly way of eating."

Swire: "Huh?"

Under the tiger cub's questioning gaze, Bai Xun continued to explain,

"I said this guy's eating manners were terrible, he clearly had no manners."

"We pureblood demons, unless we're in a state of crimson craving, are usually very mindful of elegance and etiquette, especially when it comes to eating."

Speaking of this, Bai Xun couldn't help but recall how dignified and elegant he was every time he saw Xiao Mao Dan Juan when he was still in the Blood Royal Court.

Shaking his head, Bai Xun pulled his wandering thoughts back and pointed to the corpse's severed neck.

"Look at the extent of this neck breakage. The blood splattered out would spray all over you. A pure-blooded Blood Demon would never be so ill-mannered. And if a pure-blooded Blood Demon were in a state of Crimson Thirst, it would be impossible for it to be full after eating just one person."

"So the killer should be a hybrid blood demon, but we can't rule out the possibility that it's a special killing method used by a psychopathic killer."

Chen made a deduction.

Bai Xun, however, continued to shake his head.

"Regardless of the prisoner's identity, I'm more concerned about why he would let you find the body. He had no reason to leave the body behind."

Missing persons and murders are completely different concepts, especially murders that are so unique that the perpetrator's identity can be identified at a glance.

"If the murderer could have disposed of the body, why would he deliberately leave it behind for us to discover? There are only two reasons why he did this."

Lin Yuxia said coldly:

"Either they're trying to mislead us, or it's a blatant provocation against Lungmen."

"Or rather, it's a provocation against me."

Bai Xun spoke calmly, but a scarlet light flashed in his eyes.

Damn it, I finally settled down in Lungmen and could enjoy a leisurely daily life, and now this bastard suddenly appears and causes trouble. What is he trying to do?

Surely it can't be that some idiots from the Blood Kingdom have come after us, right?
