Chapter One: Witnessing the Murder Scene

It was not until a man in a black suit fell beside me, his eyes staring lifelessly at the sky, his throat slit open, and a spray of blood erupted around me, that I began to feel a chilling terror

You damn well die quickly! The axe wielder took a step back, suddenly swaying his body from side to side, and his two subordinates immediately displayed expressions of disbelief before slowly collapsing to the ground

These people really committed murder

Let's kill together

Fang Baichuan saw the panic in my eyes and was about to shout at me to escape. However, upon seeing the axe blocking the exit of the alley, he immediately revealed a look of helplessness, realizing that there was no way I could escape from the hands of the axe.

Sigh, it must be nearly 9 o'clock, I might as well go home

The extremely short mini skirt barely covers even the small underwear, revealing hints of lace trim. The tiny vest can only cover the most crucial part of the chest, leaving a large expanse of fair skin exposed to view. Aside from that, the long boots are relatively conventional, yet they are intricately cut with many patterns, allowing the delicate calves and cute little toes to be subtly visible.

"Ye Ying will never like you - picture - book, why do you have to fixate on her?" I have told myself this dozens of times in my heart, yet I cannot help but wait for her on this path. This is the ninety-eighth time I have waited for Ye Ying on her way home. As a novice in the realm of romance, the only method I understand for pursuing a girl is this clumsy approach.

Fang Baichuan, if you do not hand over this item, you will die here today

Fang Baichuan seemed to want to say something, but his expression darkened, and he could only manage a faint smile before tilting his head and passing away.

He threw down the short knife, ignoring the two individuals whose chests were gushing blood. He took off his suit, wiped the blood from his hands, and strode away decisively.

Fang Baichuan seemed to be in great pain, continuously letting out low growls as he rolled around in the alley. The two men in black momentarily could not restrain Fang Baichuan, and as they took a few steps forward, they immediately noticed my presence

Before I could react, something was stuffed into my mouth by Fang Baichuan. When two men in black, along with a guy called Axe, rushed towards me with horrified expressions, a white light had already begun to envelop me, and then I vanished into the night air

Axe, you have always been a man in the organization. Just give me a straightforward answer, as I will never hand this over to you

Welcome to Devil Island, this is your Book of Demons, please hold on to it. You are our 16,821st visitor, and according to the rules of Devil Island, there is a reward! Before I could comprehend this, a melodious voice rang in my ears. Suddenly, a giant, four-volume book, as thick as an Oxford dictionary, struck me on the forehead and knocked me to the ground

Will they kill me to silence me? I hope they don't find out about me! Damn it, I should have said not to pursue Ye Ying. If I were at home now, I wouldn't be in this situation!

Am I dead? Or ... ...

Fang Baichuan, your skills are impressive; you truly live up to your background as a special police officer. In the past, the brothers had no idea you were an undercover agent and held you in high regard. However, today you will not survive. Where are the items located at hetushu.com? Speak up!

The axe's eye immediately turned red, filled with bloodshot veins, and it roared loudly: "Fang Baichuan, I will kill you!"

"Hmph, Fang Baichuan, without that item, Lord Guan will surely kill us. Do you think I will let you go?" The man known as Axe had a fierce expression. He gestured, and the remaining two assassins immediately struck Fang Baichuan's legs with their knives, then began to search him.

Axe Brother, there is a child!

The axe silently seized the subordinate's knife and forcefully plunged it into Fang Baichuan's chest. In a low voice, he cursed, "Do you know that because of you, I cannot return to report? Lord Guan will issue an order to eliminate us!"

As I rose to sit up, gritting my teeth and laboriously pushing aside this thick book that could serve as a weapon, I noticed that it was bound in fine sheepskin, adorned with a pentagram, within which was a small, heavy, and peculiar print of the Bagua Taiji. Slowly, I turned back the cover, and a petite, lively, and charming girl emerged from the first page of the book, smiling brightly as she spoke to me. She was dressed in an incredibly daring outfit that no girl in reality would ever dare to wear.

This year, I am in my first year of high school. I almost fell in love with a girl named Ye Ying from Class 6 at first sight. I spent more than a semester trying to pursue her, but made little progress, and it even led to many negative consequences. For instance, Ye Ying often changes her route home, leaving me waiting for several hours.

What is most astonishing is not these, but rather the pair of adorable little wings fluttering at the back of this girl's head, which allows her to float several centimeters above the pages of the book.

The two men in black were also at a loss, looking at the axe and quietly asking, "Brother Axe, what should we do? Lord Guan will not spare us!"

Upon hearing that cold command, I was so frightened that my hair stood on end. Just as I was about to scream loudly, I suddenly heard Fang Baichuan whispering, "Quick, swallow this. Remember to tell those who see us that Master Guan is ... ... "

You two fools, rather than dying at the hands of Master Guan, I might as well help you find relief. If you lose that item, Master Guan will certainly not spare anyone who knows the inside story of the *map* and *book*.

I was momentarily taken aback, and once my brain regained its capacity for thought, I foolishly asked a trivial question: "Why is the number sixteen thousand eight hundred twenty-one rewarded? It is nothing special."

I rubbed my thighs, which were on the verge of soreness and numbness, and was just about to get up from the corner when suddenly several men with hurried footsteps burst into the small alley where I was hiding

Upon hearing these words, I immediately trembled all over, not daring to move an inch. "I have encountered a murderer!" It seemed to confirm my thoughts, as after a brief argument, the several men quickly began to fight. Moreover, they appeared to be skilled in combat, more intense and spectacular than what is portrayed in films, and I secretly found it quite thrilling to watch.

The first time I saw a dead person, my hands and feet were so frightened that I couldn't move. My eyes were completely fixated on the short knife held in the dead person's hand

The unfortunate individual being pursued, despite having killed four people, is himself covered in blood, making it hard to tell that he is a police officer. However, I estimate that I cannot rely on this police officer to save me, as he himself is in need of rescue.
