However, "the choice is yours" is just an empty phrase after all, and the only choice he can now have is "life" or "death".

"I want to live. The pain in Luo Ji's heart made him only choke in his throat, but Qin Tianzhu still heard his words clearly.

"How do you want to live?"

Luo Ji suddenly raised his head, his eyes were full of bright red bloodshots: "I want to live proudly." ”

"Hahaha......" Qin Tianzhu suddenly laughed loudly, laughing so heartily, "You haven't experienced hardships, you haven't endured pain, how can you get pride." The so-called pride is nothing but the imprint of persevering on the journey of death burned by fire. If you want to be proud, you must first fall into the abyss of hell, be tempered by karma, and then be reborn from the fire!"

Qin Tianzhu's tone became strange, these words didn't seem to come out of his mouth, but they made Luo Ji's blood boil, and he suddenly had the courage to move forward, he stared at Qin Tianzhu's eyes, and said firmly: "I am willing." ”

It's a promise, it's a chain, it's a bargain with the devil.

That's a contract with the Demon King.

Qin Tianzhu smiled arrogantly and left, leaving Luo Ji with a black hole that devoured desire.

Since then, Luo Ji has continued to make meritorious contributions, and he can arrest a criminal in three days, and even some old cases have been turned out by him to find out the real culprit.

He slowly got his own office, which was almost made of pennants, shining with his smug smile.

Every year, he is a star of the police force, and the mayor praises him for his youth and promising.

When he was promoted to deputy director, everyone said that his contribution was greater than that of the director.

Everyone knows that after Liu Qishan retires, he will be the next director.

During the day, Luo Ji is full of spirits, but he never sleeps peacefully at night.

In front of people, he is a hero of the police force.

However, behind the scenes, only he knew that he was just a dog that Qin Tianzhu had planted in the police force.

Demons are born in the shadows, and there is always a backlit place in this world, where demons are everywhere.

Luo Ji sat at his desk in a daze, surrounded by twenty-four pennants, like twenty-four mirrors, reflecting twenty-four failed faces.

He stood up by holding on to the table, and then came to the door of the interrogation room, where the policeman Wang Yu stood straight at the door, as if he was showing it to someone.

"Xiao Wang, you are in such good spirits today. "Luo Ji has lost the edge of his youth, and he is in a high position, and the art of controlling people is almost instinctive.

"Director Luo!" Wang Yu saluted solemnly, looking very weird. Luo Ji has almost become the next director of the bureau, everyone usually flatters and removes the word "deputy", Liu Qishan does not care about informality, and after a long time, "Deputy Director Luo" becomes "Director Luo".

Luo Ji joked: "What's the matter?

There are so many people in the Danchuan Police Station, looking down and not looking up, although the relationship between Luo Ji and Wang Yu is not iron, but they often joke in private. In addition, Luo Ji's outstanding performance in fighting crime, everyone in the police force respected him very much, and Wang Yu did not hide it from him, and mysteriously approached Luo Ji's ear: "The people above came down to check." ”

"What?" Luo Ji was a little surprised, this kind of thing Wang Yu, an ordinary little policeman, knew but didn't know. Wang Yu is Liu Qishan's person, and Luo Ji naturally thinks that Liu Qishan told him. I thought that if I hadn't come to mention it myself, I would have been kept in the dark. Luo Ji was a thief, and immediately deduced that someone must have reported it and came up to check himself.

Considering this, he didn't dare to act rashly, let alone take Ning Bufan away. Put on a heart-to-heart smiling face, and ask cautiously: "What are you looking for?"

Wang Yu sneered: "Director Luo, you have seen too much of Infernal Affairs." In our small place, who is idle and has nothing to do to install ghosts for us. Besides, with you, the director of the detective bureau, solving the case quickly, and Director Liu being brave and fearless, who would dare to come to us to make trouble. ”

Luo Ji couldn't tell if Wang Yu was testing himself or unintentionally, so he pretended to be crazy and stupid and said: "You're right, who is here, what is checking, I know in advance to cooperate with the work." ”

"Director Luo, this matter can't be spread outside, you are the deputy director of the bureau and will know about this sooner or later, I told you in advance so that you can be prepared, and you can't blame me." ”

"That must be, God knows, you know and I know. ”

Wang Yu leaned close to Luo Ji's ear again, which made Luo Ji feel very uncomfortable, but he cared about this matter and didn't care about anything else: "It's someone from the National Security Bureau who came to investigate the kid's case inside." I heard that he was the grandfather of a certain leader. ”

"Didn't you say that you are a middle school student, how can you become a grandfather?" Luo Ji felt that this matter was a little weird, with his years of experience in handling cases, no flaw could escape his eyes. But at this moment, he was worried that the other party was investigating the case on the surface, but in fact, he was covering up people's eyes and ears in order to investigate himself.

Nine out of ten of the cases handled over the years were arranged for him by Qin Tianzhu, planning a small incident, and then sending someone to tell Luo Ji the specific experience. As soon as Luo Ji arrived at the scene, he was like a god, and the case was solved in three to five minutes. But acting is acting after all, and there will always be something left behind, even if you are already careful and can't be more careful, you can't be sure that there is no omission.

A person who deceives and cheats, no matter how sincere he is on the surface, is always weak behind the scenes.

As soon as the wind blows, the nerves tense.

Wang Yu also asked this question, thinking that even Director Luo had doubts in this regard, indicating that his level of questioning was quite high, and he said proudly: "That leader is from the countryside, and the people in the village are stricter about generation, so this one has become a grandfather." ”

"Which leader is it?"

This question is in line with Wang Yu's heart: "I can't say that this kind of thing is a scandal, the more we know, the more dangerous it is." ”

The sudden appearance of the leader made Luo Ji suspicious, but he didn't dare to investigate it deeply, if this matter was true, he was accidentally targeted by others, and he was afraid that he would not be able to find out what he had done all these years?

"The top attaches so much importance to it, then I want to have a good look at this young master with a background. After speaking, he raised his hand to open the door, whether it was Qin Tianzhu or the leader, he didn't dare to offend, so he could only take one step at a time.

Wang Yu hurriedly turned sideways at the door, and when Luo Ji was going, he looked flattering and begging for perfection: "I'm sorry Director Luo, Director Liu has instructed, this matter is too sensitive to let others in." ”
