What a lucky world!

Chapter 2: Young man, you are in trouble. Meow~
The four short and one long night watchmen's drumming sounds created ripples in the darkness.

It was the fifth watch.

Zhang Mu found Liu Zuo's home based on his familiar memory.

It was a slightly dilapidated courtyard.

It stands to reason that Liu Zuo could have bought a decent house with his salary, but he was greedy for money and lustful. As soon as he had money, he would go looking for lovers, so he spent more than he earned.

Although he felt a little nervous, Zhang Mu's steps did not slow down at all. After climbing over the wall and entering the courtyard, he reached the bedroom. He carefully used his dagger to pry open the door and approached the bed step by step.

When he was still one meter away from the bed, Zhang Mu suddenly pounced on it, but missed.

There's no one in the bed!

Zhang Mu hesitated for a moment, then quickly made a decision - wait!

If it were him, if he wanted to frame someone perfectly, he'd better leave from home as usual, and someone had to see him.

Although Liu Zuo is lustful, he is not stupid.

So, he will definitely come back.

Thinking of this, Zhang Mu closed the bedroom door again and hid behind the closet in the house.

Only then did Zhang Mu realize he was covered in sweat. He took two deep breaths to calm himself.

For a moment, the room was quiet and Zhang Mu could only hear his own heartbeat.

Waiting is a torment.

Fortunately, Zhang Mu did not suffer for too long. About half an hour later, with a creaking sound, the bedroom door was pushed open and a somewhat hunched figure walked in. With the help of the moonlight coming in from outside the door, Zhang Mu, who was hiding in the dark, recognized the person.

It’s Liu Zuo!

……

After confirming that Liu Zuo was the only one there, Zhang Mu did not hesitate. He took a quick step forward, came behind Liu Zuo, pulled out a dagger, and put it on Liu Zuo's neck.

"Good man, spare me! Spare me!" Liu Zuo reacted very quickly. He immediately felt the coldness on his neck and begged for mercy. "If you want money, I will definitely find a way. Please show mercy!"

"Liu Zuo, where is the precious medicine?" Zhang Mu asked without any emotion.

"Precious medicine?" Liu Zuo was startled, then he recognized the voice and his face changed drastically, "Zhang Mu? You...you're not dead?"

"I'm dead!" Zhang Mu said coldly, "but I've come back to find you."

Zhang Mu pinned Liu Zuo against the wall. Without further ado, he lightly slashed his dagger, leaving a gash on Liu Zuo's neck. Blood flowed out. Zhang Mu then asked, "Do you want to live or die?"

Liu Zuo was obviously a little frightened at this time, and he stammered: "The precious medicine... no... it's not with me..."

"Where?" Zhang Mu increased the strength in his hands.

For Yuanwei Escort Agency, who the thief is is secondary, the most important thing is that the precious medicine cannot be lost!
But when Liu Zuo heard Zhang Mu ask this, he stopped answering and fell silent.

Looking at the sky, Zhang Mu felt a little anxious.

When he went out, it was just past five o'clock, which was around three o'clock. He waited for Liu Zuo for another hour. It was summer now, and he was afraid that it would be dawn soon.

When daybreak comes, the escort agency will discover that the precious medicine is missing, and things will get out of control.

He doesn't have time to stay in a stalemate with Liu Zuo!

So Zhang Mu's eyes turned cold, he waved the dagger and stabbed Liu Zuo directly in the butt!

"Ah!" Liu Zuo screamed in pain, but he was pressed against the wall and unable to struggle. He could only beg, "Mu Ge'er, I was wrong, please forgive me."

"I'll take responsibility for the precious medicine, and I promise not to implicate you!"

"Brother Mu, you are still young, don't be impulsive!"

"Brother Mu, do you remember that I invited you to dinner?"

"Brother Mu..."

It would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned inviting him to dinner, but as soon as he mentioned it, Zhang Mu couldn't help but think of the original owner being poisoned, and he stabbed Liu Zuo in the thigh again!

"Ah——" Liu Zuo howled like a pig being slaughtered. When he felt that Zhang Mu seemed to be about to poke a bloody hole in his body again, he hurriedly said in a lingering voice: "Don't... don't stab! I'll tell you... I'll tell you..."

Zhang Mu placed the dagger back on Liu Zuo's neck, and heard Liu Zuo say, "Brother Mu... let's discuss this properly, let's discuss this properly..."

Zhang Mu snorted coldly and directly pressed the dagger against the entrance of Liu Zuo's valley.

Liu Zuo trembled all over and said in a trembling voice: "No...don't..."

Zhang Mu exerted a little force on his hand, and the dagger moved forward an inch. Liu Zuo immediately shouted, "Under the bed! Under the bed!"

"There's a secret compartment under the bed, and the precious medicine is in there!" Zhang Mu heard this and first pressed Liu Zuo to the ground, then pulled out Liu Zuo's belt and tied his hands behind his back. He didn't know how to tie them professionally, so he just tied them tightly and made a knot.

Then Zhang Mu stood up, walked to the bed, and lay on the ground. He knocked around under the bed with his dagger and found the location of the secret compartment. He opened the secret compartment and took out a wooden box.

However, during this process, Zhang Mu did not notice that Liu Zuo beside him lowered his head and bit a red bead pendant hanging around his neck.

Liu Zuo put the bead pendant into his mouth, bit it hard, and his whole body began to tremble.

At the same time, Zhang Mu opened the wooden box and saw a palm-sized plant similar to ginseng inside. It was the precious medicine in Baicao Hall.

Zhang Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The darts were not lost, and the matter could be settled as long as Liu Zuo was forced to write a confession of embezzlement.

As for Liu Zuo's retaliation against him afterwards?

Humph, let's first see if he can survive the wrath of the escort agency...

Thinking of this, Zhang Mu was about to grab Liu Zuo to write a confession, when he suddenly heard Liu Zuo's roar in his ears. Then Zhang Mu felt a strong force hit him, making him stagger back several steps and stop before leaning against the wall.

Through the moonlight, Zhang Mu saw clearly that the person who bumped into him was Liu Zuo!

At this moment, Liu Zuo seemed like a different person. His whole body was blood red, his eyes were bulging, and the belt that tied him had been broken free. Liu Zuo looked at Zhang Mu with a crazy look on his face, as if he wanted to tear him to pieces.

A word popped up in Zhang Mu’s mind - violent!
Liu Zuo pounced on Zhang Mu again. This time, Zhang Mu did not dodge, but entangled with Liu Zuo.

When it comes to fighting, Zhang Mu had fought many times when he was in an orphanage in his previous life. In addition, the original owner of this body worked in an escort agency after all, and he knew a few boxing and kicking techniques from what he had seen and heard, so he was not at a disadvantage for a while.

But as time went by, Liu Zuo seemed to have taken stimulants. Not only did he not feel any pain, but his physical strength was constantly increasing. He soon pushed Zhang Mu into the corner.

Liu Zuo held Zhang Mu's hand holding the dagger with one hand, and pinched Zhang Mu's throat with the other hand, making Zhang Mu feel a burning sensation in his throat and difficulty breathing.

Soon, Zhang Mu felt dizzy due to lack of oxygen, and his vision began to blur. At this moment, a dark shadow flashed outside the house, and then a crisp voice rang out in the empty room -

"Meow-"

With the cat's meow, Zhang Mu felt the strength in Liu Zuo's hand suddenly weaken. In a flash, Zhang Mu broke free from Liu Zuo's control without hesitation, raised the dagger in his hand, and stabbed it towards Liu Zuo's throat.

The dagger is very sharp!
Zhang Mu felt like the dagger was inserted into gravel, and then a stream of hot and fishy blood spurted out, spraying Zhang Mu's hand.

At this moment, Liu Zuo's strength seemed to dissipate quickly like the receding tide, and he fell down like a soft bread.

Zhang Mu covered his throat and coughed twice, then took a few deep breaths before his eyes fell on Liu Zuo.

At this time, Liu Zuo collapsed on the ground, no longer as violent as before. He was motionless, with the dagger stuck in his throat like a flag of victory.

"I killed someone..." There was no fear in Zhang Mu's heart, only the fear of escaping death.

What happened to Liu Zuo just now?

Why did he suddenly go berserk?

Just as Zhang Mu was recalling the original owner's memories and trying to find some useful clues, something strange happened.

A large amount of blood and energy rose from Liu Zuo's body, forming a blood mist above his body. Then the blood mist swirled, and a fox head condensed inside it.

Zhang Mu became alert and stared at the fox's head.

The fox's head first landed in front of Liu Zuo's body, stretched out its tongue and licked Liu Zuo's nose, then flew up again and hovered in front of Zhang Mu.

"You killed my servants and stole my tribute!" The fox-headed man actually spoke in human language and said to Zhang Mu, "How are you going to compensate me?"

Zhang Mu frowned slightly, mustered up his courage, and punched the fox on the head, but his fist seemed to hit the mist and went straight through.

"I'll remember you!" The fox head continued to speak, then it rushed towards Zhang Mu, seemed to rush into Zhang Mu's body, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, Liu Zuo's body began to wither rapidly, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a mummy. Zhang Mu touched it lightly, and with a clang, the dagger stuck in the neck of the corpse fell to the ground, and the corpse decayed into ashes!
Seeing this scene, Zhang Mu was stunned.

"Meow-"

At this time, another cat meow was heard.

Zhang Mu looked in the direction of the sound and saw a black figure landing on the bedroom windowsill.

It was the black cat from before.

The black cat stretched lazily, with the last ray of moonlight covering its body, and looked at Zhang Mu.

Eyes facing each other.

Then, a charming voice with a smoky voice came out from the black cat's mouth -

"Young man, it looks like you're in trouble, meow..."
