An eerie event occurs, and the protagonist is forced to marry a fierce and cunning woman in red at t

When Ling Chen ran upstairs, the stairwell and his home were in complete disarray.

At this moment, Liu Yiyi was lying to the side, and she looked to be in very bad condition.

Zhao Ruoyun shielded her behind her, preventing Zhang Tianyu and the other man from harming her.

Upon seeing Ling Chen suddenly appear, the killing intent in their eyes almost materialized.

When Zhang Tianyu and Su Qing saw someone come in, they quickly spoke up to remind them.

"It's dangerous here, get out of here!"

"Who are you people? What are you doing in my house?!" Ling Chen roared.

Ling Chen was truly furious. When he left, Zhao Ruoyun didn't look at him like this, but now she looked at him as if he were an enemy.

If this continues, how am I supposed to complete the tasks?

Moreover, Zhao Ruoyun and Liu Yiyi's condition is visibly poor, and continuing will only make things worse. Ling Chen must change the situation.

"They are monsters!" Zhao Tianyu said in a low voice.

"I don't care who they are, now please leave my house."

"Director, he's been bewitched by something strange. Should I take care of him first?" Su Qing said coldly.

"What are you pretending for? Do you think I'm stupid?" Zhao Ruoyun roared angrily.

If it hadn't happened so suddenly, Liu Yiyi wouldn't have been injured.

If it weren't for protecting Liu Yiyi, he wouldn't have held back, and these two people in front of him couldn't hurt her at all.

But it's too late to say anything now. She can't leave Liu Yiyi here alone. Even if they have to die, they should die together.

Seeing Zhao Ruoyun's angry expression and noticing that Zhang Tianyu and the other man showed no sign of stopping, Ling Chen steeled himself and decided to prove his stance with action.

At this point, there was no time to worry about anything else, and Ling Chen charged straight at Zhang Tianyu.

Upon noticing Ling Chen's movements, Su Qing immediately drew the pistol from her waist.

When it comes to dealing with humans, guns are still the most effective weapon.

At this moment, Ling Chen couldn't care less about anything else and took three steps at a time.

Almost at the same time he charged forward, Su Qing also fired her gun.

"Bang!"

Thankfully, it missed.

Before the second gunshot rang out, Ling Chen had already reached Zhang Tianyu's side and hugged him tightly.

No matter how hard he tried to break free, Ling Chen held him tightly and shouted loudly.

"Run!"

"I didn't call them here. I'll explain later."

Seeing Ling Chen's frantic state, Zhao Ruoyun was moved.

Without saying anything more, he took Liu Yiyi and prepared to leave.

Just then, Zhang Tianyu struck Ling Chen's ribs, breaking free from his restraints.

"Trying to run away? Did you ask me first?"

After saying that, he picked up a strange artifact.

The rules of this mysterious mirror are very simple: once someone is reflected in it and the incantation is recited, they will be drawn into the mirror and never be able to escape.

Even if it were the fierce and cunning one in red, it would be impossible for him to escape if he were ambushed.

Unfortunately, Zhao Ruoyun was right within the attack range of the strange weapon. All she could do now was throw Liu Yiyi out the window.

It would be good if either of them could escape.

Just when everyone thought the outcome was decided and Zhao Ruoyun would surely be won over, Ling Chen stepped forward once again.

He used his body to completely shield the treacherous weapon.

"No!" Zhao Ruoyun roared.

Zhang Tianyu and Su Qing also looked grim.

Once this contraband is activated, there is no way to stop it.

Even the fierce and monstrous red-clad creature could be subdued; for Ling Chen, an ordinary person, being struck by it would mean certain death.

But under everyone's watchful eyes, from the activation of the artifact to its cooling down, Ling Chen remained completely unchanged.

"Run!"

Only Ling Chen knew that it was the talisman that saved his life.

At this point, Zhao Ruoyun must leave; he has no other protection to shield him from harm.

"Okay!" Zhao Ruoyun glanced at Ling Chen one last time, then left with Liu Yiyi without looking back.

Watching the two strange figures disappear outside the window, Su Qing's face turned extremely pale.

He went straight to Ling Chen, grabbed him by the collar, and roared.

Do you know what you're doing?

"You're interfering with the Bureau of Paranormal Investigations' operations? That alone is enough for me to arrest you and make sure you never get out."

Ling Chen could only manage an undisguised smile, completely ignoring Su Qing's threats.

[Ding! Mission complete. You have obtained the Murder Rules trade.]

[By paying a certain price, one can obtain everything about the target, including their life.]

"You can still laugh?"

"Su Qing, take him back." Zhang Tianyu said, his face equally grim.

……

Hiding in the shadows, Zhao Ruoyun watched as Ling Chen was taken away, and as groups of people entered Ling Chen's house and took away the five magical artifacts and wedding clothes. The anger in her eyes was almost enough to kill.

Judging from Ling Chen's behavior just now, these people don't seem to be people he hired.

If it really was him who came looking for her, he wouldn't have risked his life to save Zhao Ruoyun, especially that last attack. If Ling Chen hadn't blocked the attack, she would never have left alive today.

"Miss, have I been discovered?" Liu Yiyi was very weak, her voice filled with self-blame.

These people couldn't have suddenly come knocking on our door, and they weren't summoned by Ling Chen, so there's only one possibility.

It could only be that these people discovered Liu Yiyi's whereabouts and tracked her down when she left the instance.

"Miss, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry to the young master."

Liu Yiyi felt that she had ruined Zhao Ruoyun and Ling Chen's lives. Originally, Zhao Ruoyun's heart, which had been frozen for a long time, had a sliver of hope for breaking through because of Ling Chen, but now, because of her, everything had been ruined.

"There's no need to blame yourself. Once I've recovered, I'll personally bring Ling Chen back."

……

[Ding! Affection Points +1.]

[Ding! Affection Points +1.]

[Ding! Affection Points +1.]

Sitting in the interrogation room of the Bureau of Mystery Investigation, Ling Chen did nothing, but the points of affection in his mind kept increasing.

If he weren't handcuffed to the chair, he could jump up right now.

This gamble paid off! If I had a few more points of affection, I could have exchanged them for enhancement potions.

Using this medicine can not only eliminate all hidden ailments, but also improve physical fitness to the level of an athlete.

Everything I sacrificed before was worth it.

Just as Ling Chen was immersed in his own world, Zhang Tianyu and Su Qing came over after changing their clothes.

The two women looked at Ling Chen with great hostility, and Su Qing even slammed her hand on the table and spoke up.

"You were the last to enter the Crimson Wedding Dress instance. Did you bring these five wedding dresses out of the instance? How did you do that? What about the others who entered the instance with you?"

"Everyone else is dead, killed by some strange force."

"As for the wedding dress, I bought it."

Upon hearing Ling Chen's words, the two looked at the instruments beside them and realized that he was not lying.

"Do you have ghost coins?"

"There were originally many, but they were all gone after the wedding dress was purchased; the rest were mysteriously withheld."

Speaking of the cunning shopkeeper, Ling Chen harbored deep resentment.

If he knew that one of the two strange creatures he had just saved was the Ghost Shopkeeper, I wonder what his expression would be.

It's still the truth.

Zhang Tianyu and Su Qing exchanged a glance, and then Zhang Tianyu spoke.

"Since you've witnessed their bizarre methods of murder, why did you help them? Do you know that it's because you let a fierce red-clad monster escape!"
