After hearing Shen Long's question, Niu Yuanping thought to himself, "Could it be that he wants to interrogate me about killing Liu Rui... Do I have to pay with my life?..."
At this time, he still couldn't figure out how much of the things he had experienced before were real and how much were hallucinations.
Therefore, when faced with the inquiry, his heart was pounding.
However, one could escape the blame by relying solely on hallucinations.
"I can't remember the specifics..."
Taking advantage of his current weakness and lack of consciousness, Niu Yuanping planned to play a card to win sympathy.
"I vaguely remember that something happened to me during the soul test... I gave birth to many evil desires and demonic thoughts... Later, I saw Shen Xue, the daughter of the director of the Demon Suppression Department, in the restaurant, and I was heartbroken. I fell in love with him and took a second look...who would have thought that the woman named Liu Rui would make rude remarks..."
Speaking of this, Niu Yuanping secretly glanced at Shen Long.
He has already figured out that the person in front of him is the Secretary General.
I thought that if I told the truth, I could still get leniency.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished saying these words, Shen Long's expression changed slightly.
Niu Yuanping had no choice but to lower his voice and pretend to be aggrieved, "As the saying goes, gentle ladies and gentlemen are good... Shen Xue is so good, who wouldn't like it?... I didn't mean to blaspheme the daughter of the Secretary General..."
After saying this, he secretly glanced at Shen Long's expression again, only to find that he was not angry. Instead, he smiled slightly, and then urged him, "Just keep talking."
Niu Yuanping was startled, his eyes rolled, his eyes flickered, and he thought: "Eh? Why aren't you angry... Shen Long's face is very calm... Others are also looking at me with half-smiling faces... What kind of trick is this?"
So he spoke feebly again, "Later... Liu Rui had an argument with me, and I accidentally... killed her... I was worried about killing someone to pay for my life, so I ran away..."
When he said this, Niu Yuanping suddenly noticed that, including Shen Long, the demon slayers were standing next to them, all of them with solemn expressions.
My heart immediately rose to my throat.
"I really didn't mean it...that woman insulted me and forced me. I accidentally missed it. That's why I killed someone..."
Shen Long nodded, "Keep talking."
"Later, I was running in a hurry, fell, and then passed out... When I woke up, I was lying here..."
You definitely can't tell the existence of the super brain system, so avoid this information.
If you encounter danger again, you can still count on this hidden trump card to save your life!
Now that the words are finished, it depends on the reaction of Shen Long and the surrounding demon-slayers.
Niu Yuanping secretly glanced at Shen Long again and found that he was looking serious and thoughtful.
So I started to get nervous, thinking, what if I really let myself kill someone to pay for my life?
I don’t know how people on this continent treat murderers.
But don't be sentenced to beheading...
When the time comes, my head will be in a different place, and I feel miserable just thinking about it.
Lying on the bed, Niu Yuanping felt weak and uneasy.
It's hard to escape when surrounded by so many people, and besides, I don't have much energy right now.
How to fix it?
Now the so-called super brain system is still shut down, unresponsive, and there is no one to discuss it.
No choice.
He had no choice but to secretly observe Shen Long's reaction again.
Niu Yuanping thought to himself, now this guy can decide my fate, so I have to serve him well...
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Shen Long's expression to begin to change.
He sighed softly, stared at Niu Yuanping on the bed, and said in a deep voice, "It seems that the evil magic you have been exposed to is quite serious! Even your memory has been disrupted..."
Hearing this, Niu Yuanping looked surprised, "I... fell into an illusion?"
"Yes, you have fallen under the evil spell! The people and things you have seen during this period are all fake and illusory." Shen Long explained to him patiently, "The Shen Xue you are talking about is simply not true. Without this person, Chen Xuanwen, the first-level demon-slayer, would have been dead long ago."
After hearing these words, Niu Yuanping immediately got goosebumps on his body, "Are those people fake?... Chen Xuanwen who went to Siguo Tower to call me out... is actually a dead person?!"
For a moment, I was sweating.
He actually hit a ghost again.
At this moment, Shen Long stared at the surprised Niu Yuanping and continued, "Yes, everything is an illusion. I don't have a daughter in the Demon Suppression Department... Not long ago, a big evil invaded the Demon Suppression Department. You used evil magic to kill two hundred and seventy-five first-level demon-slayers and two third-level demon-slayers! You are lucky to be the only survivor."
Niu Yuanping, who was lying on the bed, swallowed and began to slowly digest the information.
He thought to himself, if these are all fake and all hallucinations, then the circumstances in which I kill people may also be caused by illusions.
What a terrible illusion!
It can actually invade people's memory senses...
"It's so terrible..."
Niu Yuanping lamented that this world is really crazy.
There is such a powerful creature that can use hallucinations to kill people.
It makes people die without knowing how...
Looking at Niu Yuanping who was lying on the bed and thinking about something seriously, Shen Long knew that he must be frightened.
So he leaned down and patted his arm gently with his hand to express comfort: "Don't worry, you are safe now."
Niu Yuanping came back to his senses, gave him a wry smile, and responded, "I know...Thank you, Mr. Secretary, for your concern."
He said this, but he was already scolding in his heart: "Damn it... safe, your sister! Who knows if what I am experiencing now is also an illusion..."
This world is so weird, it’s just weird opening the door to weird people, it’s so weird.
Being unable to distinguish between fantasy and reality is the most uncomfortable thing.
He even began to doubt whether he was still alive at this time.
It's like a person floating in mid-air, with his feet not touching the ground, feeling empty and a little unsteady.
He feels that he should be suffering from stress disorder and needs a psychiatrist...
"The Ultrain system must be turned on and restarted quickly. Only if it is here can I feel at ease." Niu Yuanping thought secretly.
But he clearly remembered that before he passed out, the super brain system had shut down due to power loss. In his weak state, he did not know how to make up for the loss of bioelectric energy.
How sad.
Just at this moment, a person walked in from outside the door. He was a third-level demon slayer.
After coming in, he went straight to Shen Long and reported, "Sir, someone from the Criminal Court has entered the Demon Suppression Department!"
Shen Long's eyes narrowed, "It came so fast..." Then he sighed, "It seems that the demon evil bloodbathed the Demon Division and the demon dragon soul escaped has been reported to the Criminal Court."
Just sighing, Shen Long was silent for a while thoughtfully, and said, "This time, all the responsibility lies with me. I will follow the people from the criminal court and accept the review later."
Having said this, he glanced at Niu Yuanping on the bed and continued, "As for Niu Yuanping being the only survivor, don't tell the people in the criminal court, lest he has to be interrogated...Due to the influence of illusion, at that time He can’t remember anything, so interrogation is no longer necessary.”
When Niu Yuanping heard this, he knew that Shen Long was protecting him, and he couldn't help but feel grateful.
I thought to myself, "This guy is actually a good person."
…
At this time, the surrounding subordinates all looked worried when they heard that the director was leaving with the people in the criminal court.
One of them said, "How about bringing a few more brothers with you?"
Shen Long smiled slightly and said, "We're not going to fight, why are we bringing so many people with us? Don't worry, I'm the director of the Demon Suppression Department. They won't do anything to me. At most, I'll be sentenced to two or three years in prison."
After saying that, he looked at a ninth-level demon slayer with a beard and a yellowish complexion and said, "Qi Fei, while I'm away, you can handle the affairs of the Demon Suppression Department for me. Although the demon has retreated, But we still can’t take it lightly! Let the demon slayers strengthen the patrols in each city, and they can’t slack off in the border areas!”
After saying that, he sighed again, "There may be a shortage of manpower... try to overcome it. We have lost a lot of first-level demon slayers this time, and the matter of recruiting and training demon slayers again has to be put on the agenda."
Shen Long patted Qi Fei on the shoulder and said earnestly: "The burden on you is very heavy..."
