Chapter 306 Two choices

He didn't know how long he had been unconscious for, but Li Muhan slowly opened his eyes. He was covered in bandages, and many parts of his body were covered with plaster. In front of him was the familiar ceiling and the smell of disinfectant.

He knew that he was being carried to the Special Administrative Bureau's medical department again.

"Yo, damn, are you finally awake?"

A familiar voice came from beside him. If it was normal, Li Muhan might not have any reaction when he heard this voice, and he might even complain a few words. But now, he immediately struggled to get up, but because of the bandage on his body, And the plaster and a feeling of pain and lay back.

"Chang Yue? Do you really want to kill me..."

Li Muhan's neck was fixed and he could not move. He could only look at the ceiling and chat with Chang Yue.

"Hey, aren't we just trying to test how much progress you have made during this time? If your talent is too dull, I won't show mercy."

As Chang Yue spoke, there was a sound of smoking, and soon Li Muhan saw the pure white ceiling covered with a layer of smoke.

"Can you imagine smoking in the ward? Are you here to visit the patient, or are you here to torture me?"

"Believe me, Li Muhan, I don't want to either."

"Really? If the forest bureau hadn't taken action, I might have died there."

"No, I mean, I don't want to be here either."

Li Muhan was a little confused, and then he endured the pain and turned his head with all his strength. What appeared in front of him was Chang Yue, who was also lying on the hospital bed, wearing bandages and plaster, especially his face, which was bruised and swollen. It was like being hit by a dozen trucks in turn.

"Hi."

Chang Yue also turned his head desperately and looked at Li Muhan with a bleak smile. As soon as he opened his mouth, Li Muhan saw that several of his teeth had been knocked out.

"...The forest bureau did it?"

"No."

Chang Yue sighed, and then said softly: "Your wife did it."

Speaking of which, Chang Yue was still sitting there that day playing with his mobile phone, watching the live broadcast, waiting for Lin Ze to send a car to pick him up, but what he was waiting for was not a car, but a blood-red realm, and then he was led out of almost everything Xia Yue, who had bloody power, beat him wildly for five hours.

When Lin Ze came to find him five hours later, he had been beaten beyond recognition, but Xia Yue was still very unsatisfied. If Lin Ze had not stopped him, Li Muhan would probably have only seen Chang Yue in the ICU.

After listening to Chang Yue's words, Li Muhan cursed lightly: "This is called retribution in this world."

But he also knew very well in his heart that Chang Yue simply didn't fight back.

If he really fought back, the person lying next to his hospital bed would probably be Xia Yue.

"This time I really made Lin Ze angry."

Chang Yue took another puff of cigarette.

Li Muhan also turned his head and looked at the ceiling again: "Can I ask why you suddenly attacked me? Don't say anything about testing me. When I faced you, I felt your murderous intent, although it was very... I’m not convinced, but I really don’t have any ability to resist.”

"Li Muhan, have you never been curious about why there are so many demons in your body?"

Chang Yue's words stunned Li Muhan. Of course he had been curious, but no matter what method he used to check the information of the Special Administration Bureau, he could not find any explanation about his body. It had never appeared before. So many world-destroying demons living in one human body.

"I asked the forest bureau, but she refused to tell me."

Li Muhan could only say helplessly.

"Don't blame Lin Ze for this. She really doesn't know. From a certain perspective, she has very little information about the Special Administration Bureau."

Chang Yue's words made Li Muhan very confused: "Why? The Forest Bureau is very powerful, and it is also dedicated to carrying out the work of the Special Administration Bureau for the sake of mankind. Why would she..."

"You told Lin Ze last time that you saw a woman who looked exactly like Lin Ze, right?"

Li Muhan recalled that when he was helping Bai Ran, the woman who suddenly appeared behind Monk Zhongya holding a shabby long knife, and then nodded: "Yes, Bai Ran from the canteen's logistics department also said that he was working for hundreds of years. I saw that woman years ago, and I think she should be the same one I saw, but Bai Ran has lost his previous memory, so..."

"Lin Ze's situation is as special as yours. Of course, if the time is right, she will tell you in the future. Now I need you to make a choice, Li Muhan."

Chang Yue's voice suddenly became solemn, like a whisper in the night. Only the faint sound of the burning cigarette on his fingertips was particularly clear in this quiet ward. Time seemed to freeze, and only thoughts flowed silently.

Li Muhan took a deep breath and said in a low and firm voice: "I am lucky to have the opportunity to choose. Chang Jue, tell me what choice I need to make."

There was a trace of helplessness in Chang Yue's tone: "If you are willing to forget the information you heard from the man named Qi Su, and promise not to reveal these secrets to anyone again, of course, I will do some means to ensure that you will never I can't mention that information, and then I will let you and Xia Yue be safe and worry-free for the rest of their lives. But the price is that you can no longer stay in the Special Administration Bureau. I will arrange for you two to go to a secret place where no one knows, you can Live quietly without being disturbed by the outside world."

this......

Li Muhan was silent, this proposal was like a seductive dawn, illuminating the depths of his heart. Indeed, the choice is irresistible.

No longer have to face those extraordinary aliens, no longer have to be involved in complicated conspiracies, just stay away from the hustle and bustle with Xia Yue and enjoy a peaceful life. Isn't it a kind of long-awaited tranquility and freedom?

"Of course, peace comes at a price. Li Muhan, I will find a way to remove the demons from your body. You may still retain some alien powers at first, but over time, you will become an ordinary person. What this means, I think you should know, Xia Yue is a pure-blood, her lifespan is almost infinite, and you... may only stay in her life for a moment."

Human life is always so short and fragile.

Li Muhan suddenly remembered what she had said to him not long after he met Xia Yue. At that time, Huo Tian had just died in battle, and he complained that Xia Yue ignored life.

But if you look at it from the perspective of an immortal species, and you have to be so concerned about and even grieve for the death of every short-lived species, then this kind of immortality will only be a kind of torture.

The closer someone is to leave, the more heartbroken it will be. Li Muhan can't imagine how painful that silly girl will be when he loses the power of the devil and becomes a mortal. When he leaves Xia Yue a hundred years later.

"The second option is the regular game."

Chang Yue seemed to have expected that Li Muhan would ask him his second proposal, so he said without hesitation: "I will take you to understand the truth, which not only involves your body and the demons in your body, Of course, this process will be very long. During this period, you still have to remain silent and do not tell anyone what you heard from Qi Su. Not even your team members, your friends, not even Xia Yue. I believe it. I, Li Muhan, don’t tell them, that’s the best way to protect them.”

"But this means that we will secretly fight against the General Administration of Special Operations, right?" Li Muhan asked in a low voice.

Chang Yue was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "Boy, who told you that this matter is related to the General Administration of Special Management?"

"You guessed it." Li Muhan said calmly: "After all, the only one who can command you and the Forest Bureau is the old man."

Chang Yue chuckled twice. In fact, his apprentice was not as stupid as he thought. At least... he knew what he was going to face next, so things would be much easier to handle.

"So, what's your choice, Li Muhan."

Li Muhan looked at the ceiling and was silent for a long time, and then said: "You actually want me to choose the second path, right?"

"Oh? Why can't you see that?"

Chang Yue's tone already had a hint of appreciation.

"You introduced the first path in such detail. It seemed like you had everything considered, but in fact you captured my biggest weakness..."

Li Muhan's biggest weakness now, needless to say, is the vampire. Of course Chang Yue knows this. Chang Yue, who was said to be right, just took a puff of cigarette, and then said with a dry smile: "You can see clearly. Sometimes it's not a good thing, it's better for you to laugh and laugh like usual and pretend to be dumbfounded."

"So you have already noticed that I usually like to act stupid? You are not bad either. By the way, Chang Bureau, you are also very good at pretending to be stupid. We are all people with two faces. Brother, don't I’m talking about second brother.”

Li Muhan and Chang Yue turned to look at each other again, and finally Chang Yue laughed loudly: "What a boy! You have the guts! I accept you as my apprentice!"

Chapter 307 Prometheus

Chang Yue left the hospital that afternoon, and Li Muhan didn't say much.

Of course he knew that it was impossible for Chang Yue to lie in the hospital bed because of these injuries. All this was just to say those words to himself, so he stayed in the hospital and waited for himself to wake up.

Of course, Chang Yue's explanation was: "I have to watch you wake up before I dare to leave. That vampire is acting crazy now. She attacks me when she sees her. The medical department has directly banned her from entering. Hehe, so we are here It’s so peaceful here.”

After saying that, he put on his coat and waved to Li Muhan: "Now that you're awake, I finally don't have to hide from her. Regarding what we just said, Li Muhan, remember, don't tell anyone."

After Chang Yue left, Li Muhan wanted to squint for a while, but suddenly heard a knock on the window.

He turned his head and saw a girl with disheveled hair looking at him outside the window.

"What's up?"

Li Muhan asked, and then he suddenly realized that this was the inpatient department on the fifth floor! In other words, this woman is hanging in mid-air now? !

"Fuck! Who are you!"

Li Muhan was startled and couldn't help but exclaimed. Unexpectedly, the sound made the girl shrink back in fear.

"...Li, Captain Li, yes, it's me..."

The girl only exposed half of her head and looked timidly at Li Muhan outside the window.

Li Muhan carefully looked at this gloomy-looking girl who looked a bit like Sadako, and then suddenly realized: "Oh! Are you, are you...that...tall girl?"

The girl outside the window nodded slightly: "Yes... By the way, you still don't know my name. My name is Ishii Qianxiang. I am currently working in the Human Resources Department as a clerical professional." Work......"

"How do you choose a Japanese name?"

As soon as Li Muhan said these words, he remembered that Gao Nu seemed to be the monster in Fuso's Night Journey of One Hundred Demons.

"No, why are you outside the window?"

Even if Li Muhan didn't walk over, he would have known how strange the tall girl's posture was now. She was standing on the first floor with her neck stretched out so long that she could reach her window.

Although she looks quite cute, it's just that this posture is really psychologically harmful to people, and this is a hospital... not to mention how scary it is.

But Li Muhan forgot that this was a hospital belonging to the Special Administration Bureau. These doctors, nurses and patients were so weird that they had never seen them before. They had long been accustomed to them.

"Miss Xia asked me to see if you were awake."

The tall girl, Qianxiang, looked downstairs slightly. It was obvious that Xia Yue was downstairs now.

Good guy, the hospital really banned Xia Yue from entering.

After thanking Gao Nu, Li Muhan also sat up. The injuries on his body had almost recovered under the double infiltration of Hypnos and Baal's power, but they were not as perverted as Chang Yue. Remove casts and bandages with your own hands.

With the help of the doctor, Li Muhan removed the bandages and plaster on his body. When he was about to leave, the nurse at the counter at the door stopped Li Muhan: "Captain Li, we meet again~"

"hehe......"

Li Muhan was speechless. He really didn't want to meet him.

"Alas~ This is the medical fee. Do you want to pay by card or cash?"

The little nurse took out the receipt and handed it to Li Muhan.

"Is it... a mistake? When he removed my stitches just now, the doctor said that Xia Yue had already paid my medical expenses."

Li Muhan took the receipt. When he saw the patient's name, his eyes darkened and he almost fainted again.

"Chang Ju said that your girlfriend injured him, so you have to pay for the medical expenses~"

"..."

Facing the innocent smile of the little nurse, Li Muhan's mouth twitched a few times, and then he took out his bank card: "Swipe the card..."

After paying the bill, he just turned around to leave, and then he seemed to remember something. He walked back to the counter and said to the nurse: "...then, give me...a New Year's card..." Card."

......

In the secret meeting room on the second underground floor of the Special Administration Bureau, Chang Yue did not call Lin Ze during the video conference with Lu Shan.

The entire space was immersed in an oppressive silence at the moment. The only light came from the weak fluorescence of the screen, which intertwined with the smoke from the cigarette in Chang Yue's mouth, creating a tense and mysterious atmosphere.

"Chang Yue, I need a clear answer." Lu Shan's voice came through the screen, as cold as ice, and his eyes stared directly at Chang Yue on the screen, as if he wanted to penetrate the virtual boundary.

In the past 48 hours, Chang Yue had been avoiding Lu Shan's questioning, but today, he chose to take the initiative and proposed this secret conversation.

"Don't worry, the matter is taken care of."

Chang Yue took a deep drag on the cigarette, letting the smoke stay in his lungs for a moment, and then slowly exhaled toward the screen, as if to convey his determination in this way.

"I've solved it, Lu Shan. The young man knows nothing about Tartarus, but his friend Qi Su has some tricks. Not only did he successfully invade Moriarty's system, he also discovered that their target might Pointed to Prometheus.”

At the mention of "Prometheus", Lu Shan's eyebrows twisted into a knot.

"The level of confidentiality of that project is almost unmatched. How did Moriarty obtain this information?"

His words were full of doubts and uneasiness, as if he had a premonition that a greater crisis was approaching.

Chang Yue scratched his head in embarrassment: "Hey, our Tianhai City Special Management Bureau was hacked before."

Hearing Chang Yue's words, Lu Shan was so angry that he puffed his beard and glared: "What did you say!? Is your network engineering department a piece of shit?!"

"Old man Lu, you can't blame the Network Engineering Department for this. Moriarty merged with a Tai Sui, and this Tai Sui used a method unknown to us to become a digital life, and also swallowed the spirit of speech. , this cannot be prevented by writing a few lines of code.”

"Okay! Don't give me any excuses! Prometheus is not just a project of the Chinese Special Administration Bureau! It involves seventy-eight national special administration agencies in the world! Do you understand the seriousness of this?!"

"I know, I know." Chang Yue picked his ears impatiently with his little finger, and then said to Lu Shan: "Didn't I just come back from a business trip? It's for Prometheus. Three months later, in May, Prometheus will conduct a third opening test. If Moriarty really wants to invade Prometheus, then this opening test will be his best chance."

Lu Shan pondered for a moment and then said, "Do you want to go there in person?"

Chang Yue smiled and shook his head: "What am I going to do? I can't deal with that kind of electronic pet. Let Li Muhan go. He is the most suitable candidate."

"Chang Yue! Are you fucking crazy!?"

Lu Shan was furious and slammed the table. The video screen trembled: "You want a kid who has just joined the Special Administration Bureau less than half a year to participate in the Prometheus Project!? And he is also a demon?!"
