Gaoban Daisuke carefully inquired about the situation, then instructed his subordinates to take away the unconscious suspect, who was lying on the ground and occasionally twitching in pain.
He looked at the handsome and upright Lin Mu and couldn't help but pat his shoulder in admiration.
"Young man, you're impressive! You actually managed to take down a criminal like this. Well done!"
Gaoban Daisuke didn't actually like going out on calls much.
He wished there were no cases at all.
More often than not, when the police arrived, it was already a completed crime scene.
The victims' tragic state made Gaoban Daisuke hate criminals immensely.
Therefore, he was very moved by Lin Mu's timely arrival and his action of taking down the criminal.
"Um, Officer, will Mu-kun be okay? After all… that guy looks a bit miserable…"
Dan Sheng Gu Sen Xia couldn't help but ask timidly. She saw Lin Mu step on the culprit's crotch, and while it was satisfying, she was more worried that Lin Mu would get into trouble because of it.
Gaoban Daisuke smiled and shook his head, "Don't worry, little girl. He was acting heroically, and this guy is definitely the serial killer."
"Not only will Lin Mu not be in trouble, but we will also reward him. You can rest assured."
Hearing this, Dan Sheng Gu Sen Xia finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Mu smiled and patted her hair, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Gaoban Daisuke said gently, "Um, three students, due to procedure, I'd like to ask you to come back with me to give a statement. Don't worry, it will be quick, and I'll personally drive you home afterward."
Lin Mu naturally had no objections to this.
He got into the police car and went to the police station with the two girls.
On the way, Gaoban Daisuke also told him some things about the serial murder case, saying that they had been looking for this culprit and already had decisive evidence. As long as they compared it with this person, the result would be clear.
Lin Mu kept nodding, but in reality, he didn't really believe in the power of the police.
If it weren't for his necklace protecting him this time, by the time they arrived, it would have been too late.
Sure enough, in this world, if you want to protect the people important to you, you must never be careless.
He should fully learn the method of being cautious, cautious, and even more cautious!
Gaoban Daisuke seemed to admire Lin Mu and even exchanged personal contact information with him.
Lin Mu naturally wouldn't refuse.
With his identity, he could also use Gaoban Daisuke's connections in the future.
Lin Mu wanted to build his Mu Empire, so he naturally had to find ways to place his people in various fields.
And Gaoban Daisuke was very good.
Cough, cough, it's definitely not because he wanted Gaoban Kirino that he chose this way.
After giving their statements, the three of them got off in a park near Dan Sheng Gu Sen Xia's house.
Gaoban Daisuke left.
Lin Mu smiled at the two girls, "Let's go. There's still time. Let's take a walk together. I know you have many questions."
Dan Sheng Gu Sen Xia looked at him with complicated eyes, subconsciously touching the necklace around her neck.
She indeed had a belly full of questions, but now she found it hard to ask.
After all, this was Mu-kun's secret. Was it really okay to tell her and Kato?
Well, actually, she wanted to know, and she was super eager for him to explain.
As someone who had once suffered from chuunibyou, she had also fantasized about a world divided into black and white, into the ordinary surface world and the hidden world where people with special powers resided.
Lin Mu walked with a relaxed expression, with Dan Sheng Gu Sen Xia and Kato Megumi following him on his left and right.
"Speaking of which, I still have to thank Xiao Hui. Thankfully, you were quick-witted enough to send me a message, which allowed me to quickly locate you and rush over."
"As for you, Senxia, you still need to practice when it comes to dealing with crises."
Dan Sheng Gu Sen Xia saw him praise Kato and intimately call her "Xiao Hui," and immediately couldn't help but pout.
"Who would have thought that going home normally would lead to encountering a murderer? And how do you practice this? Ordinary people probably wouldn't encounter something like this in their entire lives!"
Lin Mu's lips curved, "I think, the moment you met me, your extraordinary lives were destined, so you must be prepared."
Dan Sheng Gu Sen Xia stared at him intently.
"So, what kind of person is Mu-kun exactly? Why does the necklace you gave me have such power?"
Kato Megumi's body trembled, and she felt a pang of jealousy.
That necklace, was it really given by Lin Mu?
But I met him first.
Since elementary school, she and Mu-kun had always been in a front-and-back desk relationship.
Why didn't he give me a necklace?
Kato Megumi's face remained calm, but she clearly showed signs of unhappiness.
Lin Mu saw Dan Sheng Gu Sen Xia's curiosity and a slight smile played on his lips.
"I am a demon, you know? As long as you make a contract with me, you can become a magician. So, Senxia-sama, are you tempted?"
"Ugh… I told you not to call me Senxia-sama. So, how long are you going to hold onto my dark history?"
Dan Sheng Gu Sen Xia was a little exasperated.
"Well, probably for life?"
"What do you mean 'probably'? Can't you be more certain?" Dan Sheng Gu Sen Xia subconsciously blurted out, then realized she had accidentally spoken her mind, and her cheeks immediately flushed.
Lin Mu raised an eyebrow, then helplessly spread his hands, "That depends on whether you're willing. Alright, we're at your doorstep now."
He raised his hand and stroked her hair, his eyes gentle.
"Get a good night's sleep, forget what happened today, Senxia. See you tomorrow."
"…Ugh… Then, Mu-kun, Kato… See you tomorrow."
Dan Sheng Gu Sen Xia looked at him with complicated eyes, her little face red, and returned home.
Lin Mu, acting as a protector, walked slowly with Kato Megumi.
Kato Megumi walked silently beside him, her expression a little cold.
Lin Mu naturally understood that she was upset that he gave Senxia a necklace but forgot about her.
Fortunately, he was prepared.
He stopped, turned around, and looked at her intently.
"Don't you have anything to ask, Xiao Hui? Like about the necklace? And my identity as a demon?"
Kato Megumi turned her head away, looking a bit awkward.
"We're just ordinary classmates. I don't seem to have the right to meddle in Mu-kun's affairs. It's Mu-kun's freedom to give a necklace to whoever he wants, isn't it?"
"There's nothing much to ask, anyway. And, what does Mu-kun intend to do by deliberately telling me his identity?"
Lin Mu was about to speak when Kato Megumi turned around again. She even quickened her pace and said to herself:
"Well, it's not really related to me anyway. I should be grateful for Mu-kun's rescue. In any case, I'll remember this kindness. I won't tell Shiina about you and Dan Sheng Gu."
Hearing her words of disassociation, Lin Mu looked helpless.
Kato Megumi seemed easygoing, but when she got angry, she was also very stubborn.
Very intimidating.
Lin Mu didn't like the cold war, so he looked at her back, then directly opened his arms and hugged her tightly.
"Ugh… Is Mu-kun being a hooligan?" Kato Megumi's delicate body trembled slightly, and her cheeks also flushed a little.
Clearly, she hadn't expected him to be so bold, so direct as to hug her from behind.
"Yes, I am. Who told you we had no relationship? Well, now we do. I didn't forget about Xiao Hui. It's just that I didn't have a chance to give it to you."
Saying that, he took her small hand and put an exquisite bracelet on her wrist.
"Don't take it off, or I'll be very sad."
Kato Megumi looked at the bracelet, and the bitterness in her heart instantly disappeared by more than half.
She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and turned to look at him.
"I'll cherish it… Ugh!"
This time, she couldn't speak.
Lin Mu, the kissing maniac, made his move again.
Since the bracelet had been given, he had to seal it with a kiss for a preliminary contract.
