Li Mo is dead.

He lay with his face against the ground, motionless.

No, that's not quite accurate.

His body was not dead yet, and tears were still oozing out of his eyes that had turned into a deathly gray color.

To be precise, his heart died.

As the strongest wise general, Li Mo has no private life of his own, so his only pleasure is to plant flowers and plants in the courtyard of the Demon King's City.

This blood morning glory has been carefully taken care of for three months since the end of the year, and the expected flowering time is today.

only.

After Limo got up early and cleaned up, he went to the patio and discovered that his precious blood petunias had become as bare as an overworked middle-aged novelist.

At that moment, Li Mo's heart became as bare as this bloody morning glory.

"Who did this?"

Realizing that the prisoner was still on the loose, Li Mo reluctantly climbed up dragging his body that was already like mud.

He would never let such a vicious guy go.

"Anyway, let's sort it out first."

Li Mo bit his thumbnail and looked around. He thought that there could not be a perfect crime and there would be clues left at the scene.

A beam of sunlight shone through from the patio, illuminating the entire yard. This place and the platform on the roof of Demon King City were Li Mo's favorite places.

"Although the flowers were stolen, the situation at the scene was not too bad."

From the cross-section of the flower vine, Li Mo saw that although the flowers were picked using a harsh method, the damage to the flower vine was not serious.

This can rule out that birds such as wild finches flew in from the patio to build nests or forage for food.

The ground has not been trampled brutally, and not even footprints have been left.

"Could he be...a brave man?"

A terrible thought flashed through Li Mo's mind.

However, a brave man wouldn't steal his own flowers, right?

No no no!

Li Mo slapped his face hard.

Isn't a brave person synonymous with a thief? He can enter other people's homes at will and plunder the things that others put in their treasure chests.

The things I put on the first floor often disappeared, and there was no doubt that they were taken away by the brave men.

And just forget about taking useful things. Why did you, a brave man, take away the oil paintings of previous generations of demon kings from me? Take them back to ward off evil spirits!

For this matter, Li Moke was very troubled.

Fortunately, the private rooms after the first floor can only be reached through the royal hall, otherwise the damage would not be something that can be broken with the fingers of two hands.

Damn brave man!

But to get in here, you have to come in through the front door, which means there are guys who are neglecting their duties here.

"The Four Heavenly Kings, are the Four Heavenly Kings here?"

Li Mo shouted sharply, but he tried hard to make his expression look calmer. It would not be good if the hero wanted to vent all his resentment on his subordinates.

The black mist surged and receded, and the little black dog appeared in front of Li Mo.

"Hey, let me tell you, how did you become a guard dog? Why didn't you notify me when a brave man came in?"

"Woof woof woof -"

"What!? You said no one came in?"

Li Mo squatted down, ruffled the hair on the Four Heavenly Kings' heads with his hands, and then picked it up by its collar.

"You'd better think it over carefully. Now I can forgive you if you admit that you were lazy."

"Woof woof woof——"

"Ah?! You said you are sure no one has come in?"

"Woof woof woof woof——"

"What, you still dare to complain about not getting a salary? Let me tell you, even I don't get any, so just save it."

"Woof!"

"Subordinates can't talk back to their boss!"

Bang bang, a white light flashed in Li Mo's mind, and he threw the Four Heavenly Kings away.

At that moment, as the strongest intelligence general, he already understood what was going on.

If they are not outsiders, they are people inside the Demon King's City. And speaking of people inside the Demon King's City...

"Excluding myself and this stupid dog, all that's left is..."

Damn it! I should have thought it was you!

big boss!

Li Mo rushed into the utility room angrily. He felt that he had to teach the Demon King a lesson today.

I grabbed a broom and waved it, no.

Fell down.

Grabbed another clothes hanger.

Or not.

Roll a magazine into a tube, ah! Still not working!

Finally, I tore off a page of the magazine and rolled it up. Well, that was just right.

"big boss!"

Li Mo pushed open the door of the Demon King's room fiercely.

The Demon King, who was wearing a pure white dress, was sitting on the ground fiddling with something. He was startled by Li Mo who suddenly broke in and hurriedly put something behind him.

"You...how could you just come in!"

"I've always come in directly before, and by the way, what are you doing, Lord Demon King?"

Li Mo showed a business-like smile and looked at the Demon King kindly.

"No...nothing."

His eyes were darting around, and he was playing tuneless tunes.

Sure enough there is a problem!

"No need to pretend anymore, I already know everything, Lord Demon King!"

"Hey, how could it be exposed?"

"You underestimate the wisdom of the wise general."

"Forget it, there's nothing we can do if we're exposed."

The Demon King lowered his head, his face full of disappointment. His pitiful look made Li Mo feel a lot softer.

Slowly walked up to Li Mo, shook his head and met Li Mo's eyes, puffing out his cheeks, but his expression seemed very relaxed.

"Close your eyes."

"Why?"

"Just shut up when I told you to, you stinky Ali."

Although he didn't know what she wanted to do, Li Mo still closed his eyes for the time being.

"You should squat down for me!"

The Demon King, who was only as tall as Limo's belly, seemed to be troubled for some reason.

Li Mo sighed slightly and followed the Demon King's words and squatted down on one knee.

The Demon King seemed to have placed something on top of his head, and his long fingers were arranging his hair.

The Demon King murmured something softly in his mouth. It seemed that he didn't want to say it to Li Mo, but Li Mo still heard it.

Dedicated to my dearest family members.

"Okay, you can open your eyes."

There was a gentle touch on Li Mo's cheek, and he slowly opened his eyes.

The Demon King held his face with both hands to indicate the direction he should look. It was a clumsy garland. You could tell at a glance that it was made by an outsider. The garland was made of Limo's bloody morning glory. , the edges are scattered with some small light yellow wild flowers.

It was worn crookedly on the devil's head.

"How about it?"

The Demon King's hand left Li Mo's cheek, held it flat and spun it around in front of Li Mo.

The silver hair tips rotate with the pure white skirt.

"It's the same as A Li's."

Li Mo reached out and touched his head, letting the fragrance of flowers fall.

Although it cannot be seen, it must be a clumsy garland, but it must be...

Li Mo stretched out his hand to wear the devil's wreath.

"very beautiful."

"hey-hey."

The Demon King showed a sweet smile.

As the most intelligent general, Li Mo couldn't think of any amazing words at this moment.

However, praise does not require overly dazzling words. Three simple words completely conveyed Li Mo's feelings to the devil.

Li Mo quietly kneaded the paper in his hand into a ball.

He thought he would plant more flowers next time.
