Chapter 55

I laughed: "I don't know if you're complimenting me or laughing at me, I don't usually look like a woman." ”

"Why am I laughing at you? I'm telling the truth, Ruo Xuan Lin sees your appearance, and I don't know how happy I want to be. ”

I took a glass of wine and said, "You don't have to mention him again, it doesn't matter what I dress." ”

Muyang observed my expression, "You don't believe him?" ”

"If you don't believe it, you don't have to believe it."

Why is that? Based on what I know about Xuan Lone, he probably won't marry a second wife. ”

"He doesn't want to do it himself, and it doesn't mean that others won't let him marry. There are some things that he can't decide on his own. ”

"But it won't be long before Mrs. Xuan ......"

"Robbing while it's hot? It's easy for you to think about it. I smiled and only cared about drinking, and Muyang stopped talking, as if we had mentioned something taboo.

We had a good time, Muyang said a lot of funny or sad things about his past, I listened silently, or comforted him or sighed, but I knew that Muyang didn't care about these things for a long time, even if I comforted him, it was like talking nonsense.

I don't know how long it took, Muyang stopped talking after drinking a glass of wine. "With all that said, what about yours?"

I was stunned for a moment and smiled, "Mine? What is there to say about mine? ”

"If I just wanted to tell you my story, I wouldn't be sitting here."

I watched the waves crashing against the shore outside the window, and I didn't know where to start.

"Is the killer's past that important?"

Muyang filled me with wine and said, "The important thing is not the identity of the killer, but you." ”

I looked at him, and he smiled at me, and those eyes seemed like there was no way to refuse. I lowered my head and said, "Even if it's me, it doesn't matter. ”

"Why think so low of yourself? Put you in the killer hand, you are also one of the best, why do you look down on yourself now? ”

"In the same kind of people, of course, I feel meaningless, but if I put it in the crowd, I would rather be an ordinary woman and marry an ordinary man."

"But if you think about it now, you won't want to spend your life like that."

I smiled wryly, looked at the empty jar, and said, "When you're done, go back." ”

"Okay."

Obviously I wasn't drunk, but I was like I was drunk, staggering and walking, Muyang wanted to help me, and I pushed me away, but I didn't stand firm in the next step, and fell straight forward, Muyang grabbed me, so I didn't hit the ground.

"I remember you drank more than that." Muyang's dark eyes were shining in the moonlight, and I said angrily: "I'm not drunk!" ”

"When have you ever seen a bad guy say he's a bad guy?"

I pushed his hand away: "I don't want you to help me." ”

"Then don't blame me for falling."

After saying that, Muyang really let go, and my feet fell to the ground weakly.

Muyang squatted in front of me and asked, "Do you want to help?" ”

I didn't speak, he held out his hand to me, and he didn't speak. I grabbed his arm, and as soon as he used his strength, I was still like a puddle of soft mud, and Muyang said helplessly: "I'll carry you back." ”

I lay on his shoulder, not daring to move, I was afraid that I would vomit on him immediately the next moment, but fortunately, Muyang walked very steadily, maybe he was also afraid of turning the wine out of my stomach.

So I went all the way to the station, he took care of me, put me on the bed, covered me with the quilt, I closed my eyes and didn't want to care about anything, I didn't want to move. I heard him sigh, followed by the sound of bathing from behind the screen.

After Muyang came out, he looked at me to see if I was lying down properly, and went to bed by himself. But I couldn't sleep, so I turned over gently, lest the creaking of the bed wakes him. But he still woke up and asked, "Is the wine sober?" What are you thinking? ”

"It's nothing, you sleep."

"You don't sleep, you always turn over, how can I sleep?"

I snorted and said, "I haven't seen you wake up in the past two days." ”

Mu Yang chuckled: "I shouldn't have promised the emperor to take you out and spend an extra amount of money, you still don't do anything, and you are restless at night." ”

"You deceived me, how dare you not listen to the emperor's words? You also lied to me, let me talk about my past, is this also a task given by the emperor? ”

I could only hear Mu Yang's low laughter, I sighed and said, "Sleep, I won't turn over." ”

On the second day, I slept late and didn't get up until late, but Muyang was reading a book on the side for some reason, and he didn't seem to go out.

"Didn't you go out?"

"I'm back from my errands."

I looked at the sun, yes, it was noon, he went out so early, the morning's business should be done.

"Are you sober?" He looked at me and smiled, as if he was still laughing at me for the way I looked last night.

"I'm not drunk." I glared at him and went to wash up.

After washing up, the meal came, and I sat down at the table, still smelling of alcohol.

"The world will always point fingers at women like you." Mu Yang said something inexplicable.

"I don't care."

"But in the eyes of some people, you are too precious."

"Then I won't be able to touch it."

"Think for yourself, do you not care or are you numb?"

"What's the point of saying that?"

"I don't want to see you like this."

"What does it look like? Wouldn't it be nice for me to do this? ”

Muyang stopped talking, I knew what he wanted to say, but I didn't want to hear it.

"Since you're going out to play, let's have fun and don't mention some things that make people unhappy." I said.

"Back to business, do you know what the emperor gave you an official for?"

"Isn't it for officials?"

"The Ministry of Officials is already in charge of the transfer, inspection, appointment and dismissal, and assessment of officials, and if you sit in this position, the officials of all sizes in the capital are basically under your control."

I picked up a mouthful of food, "What's the use of that, give me this official position, I won't do it." ”

Mu Yang said in a low voice: "The position that the emperor gave you is not to ask you to do things in this position, what he really wants to test you is whether you can enter the Jinyi Guard." ”

I was stunned. Jin Yiwei is our killer's dream since childhood, no matter how powerful the killer, we all admire the light of Jin Yiwei, if you can become a Jin Yiwei, it is infinite scenery and honor.

"Well, do you still have to hesitate about such a good thing?"

"I'm not hesitating, I just don't dare to think about it."

Jinyiwei is engaged in investigation, arrest, interrogation and other activities, but Jinyiwei is generally served by the emperor's cronies and generals, where do I have the identity and ability?

"The emperor dares you to do it, what do you dare not think?"

I drank a cup of tea and knew exactly where I was now.

Muyang continued: "The emperor said, if you don't have anything wrong with me in the past few days, go back and continue to give you the task, as for what it is, I won't know until then." ”

"How dare I not accept the task given by the emperor?"

"But what's on your mind?"

I said calmly: "I also want to change my current situation, it is better to accept the task given by the emperor and go up step by step." ”

"That's good, by the way, Xuan Lin is also one of the Jinyi Guards, you can arrest people with him when the time comes."

I stared at Muyang and said, "Don't mention him again." ”

Mu Yang looked at my serious appearance, and finally knew that I was not joking, sighed and said: "If you can't make any progress, it's not bad to be a brother, it's better not to make a fuss." ”

"I know."

After eating quickly, Muyang was going out again, I was reading in the house and saw that it was a little dark before I slowly finished taking a shower, and as soon as I opened the door, I saw Muyang who was about to knock on the door.

He looked at me, "You're going out?" ”

"Yes, go for a walk."

"Do you want to wait until I'm done with you? I'm afraid you're not familiar with this place and you're lost. ”

I laughed, "Not really." ”

Mu Yang wanted to say something, but he didn't say it after all, but just said, "Okay, then you be careful." ”

Walking up the street, which is still bustling after dark, and slowly walking to the beach, I try to find inner peace. I'm thinking about some messy things, when I was a kid, when I grew up...... At some point, there was a footstep behind me.

The footsteps were very unusual, sometimes light and sometimes heavy, I didn't look back, suddenly stopped, and the people behind me also stopped, I continued to walk, and the people behind me also continued to walk. I don't know how long he will follow, but it must not be Muyang, or even someone I know, but I still move forward.

When I came to a rock, I pretended to go forward, but in fact I hid behind the stone, but the person behind me also stopped, I hesitated, rushed to the person behind me, and was about to reach out and grab his collar, but the man easily dodged him.

The man's figure looked burly in the dark, he was wearing a mask and a night suit, and I couldn't see his face clearly, but I could see a pair of cloudy eyes.

I couldn't be more familiar with that kind of look, it was a look that wanted to kill, and it was also a look that didn't have any hope.

I didn't speak, realizing that I might have met a master, or maybe he wasn't a master, just someone who didn't care about his life.

There was no time to think now, so I rushed over and slashed his arm with my knife, but it was empty.

But the man seemed to be watching his prey, and let me perform, and he didn't move, just hiding.

"Who are you?" I asked.

The man didn't answer, just looked at me, his eyes full of banter and mockery.

I didn't feel irritated in the slightest, because I had long since become numb to this emotion.

Once, twice. Every knife he easily dodged, and I was sweating on my forehead, and I was already a little out of breath.

In the past, anyone who provoked me had various purposes, and although the person in front of me also had a purpose, I still couldn't understand his thoughts.

I stopped showing mercy, and the man seemed to be getting serious, and he seemed to be more comfortable with the same knife than I was, and his knife seemed harder and sharper in his hand than mine.

After a few rounds, I already had a few wounds on my arm and leg, and I only had a gentle cut on his right arm.

He looked down at me with disdain, and I knew that he was getting impatient and was about to harvest his prey.

He suddenly rushed over, the huge size did not slow down his speed, I blocked one knife, but the other knife was firmly pierced in my right leg, I held back the pain, desperately stabbed him in the throat, but his knife went straight to my heart, I couldn't resist his strength, I turned around, the knife pierced my shoulder.

My knife didn't go into his throat at all, it just cut his skin, I was unwilling, and then rushed up, but he pressed to the ground, the soft sand had no way for me to get up with strength, seeing that the knife was going to pierce my throat, I plunged the knife into his wrist, but he didn't let go of the knife, fortunately, the blade was already off, I took the opportunity to cut his throat fiercely, but I didn't expect that he didn't give up at the last moment, he must put me to death, and stabbed the knife into my chest.

I don't remember how I dragged the man's heavy body into the sea, and I forgot how I stumbled back to the station. I only remember Muyang's panicked appearance, and I don't remember what happened next, I only remember that there was still a faint smell of blood in my dream.
