Chapter 1713 Dereliction of Duty and Purge
"Boom~"
Baby Spoon rolled his eyes and called him an idiot.
The pigeon didn't care.
It flew up and down in front of Xiao Xiao, chattering about what it had seen and heard today.
Xiao Xiao listened with a smile.
The little white fox flicked its tail.
The tip of the tail swept across Xiao Xiao's chin.
Some itchy feeling.
Xiao Xiao lowered his head, with a questioning look in his eyes.
The little white fox's rosy red eyes looked straight at Xiao Xiao.
There is no usual laziness or playfulness.
"what happened to you?"
"hiss~"
The white snake snaked up Xiao Xiao's arm.
He climbed all the way up to Xiao Xiao's shoulders.
"Master Xiao Xiao, something seems to be wrong with you?"
The white snake tilted its head.
"What's wrong with me?"
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows curved slightly.
"Well"
The tip of the white snake's tail poked Xiao Xiao's shoulder, "I can't tell."
"There's just something wrong."
"hehe."
Xiao Xiao laughed softly twice.
He reached out and touched the little white fox's head, then gently touched the white snake's head with his fingers.
"I just suddenly realized that I am becoming more and more like a law enforcer."
……
More and more like a law enforcer?
The little white fox and the white snake both blinked, feeling a little confused.
"hiss~"
The white snake twisted its body and said as a matter of course, "Master Xiao Xiao is the law enforcer."
How can they be more and more alike?
……
Xiao Xiao laughed.
Yes, he is the law enforcer.
Whether it’s good or bad, no one will judge?
It's not up to his will.
"No, Lord Law Enforcer."
A long-lost voice sounded in Xiao Xiao's heart.
The shadow of a dragon appeared in front of Xiao Xiao.
The moonlight penetrated its body.
Except Xiao Xiao, no monster discovered its existence.
Xiao Xiao was stunned.
Then he smiled slightly.
"Ayu, long time no see."
……
"Sir Law Enforcer, it's been a long time since we last met."
Long Ying lowered his head, "Hello."
"What did you mean by what you just said?"
Xiao Xiao's heart moved.
Is it possible that as a law enforcer, he actually has a supervisor by his side?
"Yes and no."
The dragon's shadow was blurry, and it seemed like it would disappear into the sky and earth in the blink of an eye.
"The Demon Mirror is a rare item in the world."
"Born from heaven and earth."
"The law enforcer chosen by the Demon Mirror is fulfilling the duty of heaven."
"If the law enforcers are seriously derelict in their duties, the Heaven and Earth will purge them."
eliminate……
That's a serious word...
Xiao Xiao twitched the corner of his mouth.
It turns out that he not only has to worry about being devoured by a ferocious monster one day, but also has to be extremely cautious at all times, so as not to make a mistake and be sentenced to death by his "superior".
It’s true that being a public official is not easy.
"Don't worry too much, Lord Law Enforcer."
The dragon shadow seemed to smile.
"Except for the first law enforcer, all the subsequent law enforcers have not made serious dereliction of duty."
"What did the first Enforcer do?"
Xiao Xiao was a little curious, and had some vague guesses in his mind.
"The first law enforcer hunted humans out of selfish motives."
"It has had a huge negative impact on the balance between humans and monsters."
"Hunting humans?"
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but ask back.
"Yes."
Long Ying nodded.
Xiao Xiao was really surprised.
Originally, he thought he could probably predict A Yu's answer.
Law enforcers are neutral beings.
There is only one possibility for serious dereliction of duty by law enforcement officers - they have clearly taken sides.
Either help humans fight monsters, or help monsters fight humans.
Law enforcers are human.
The former possibility is obviously much greater.
However, A Yu's answer was beyond his expectations.
Hunting humans...
Is it to vent anger for past experiences... or is it to raise monsters to gain more powerful strength?
Whatever the reason...
The first law enforcer seemed to be a ruthless person.
Of course, any law enforcer who is chosen by the Demon Mirror is not a weakling.
Xiao Xiao thought thoughtfully, "Is the first law enforcer very strong?"
"Yes."
Long Ying nodded, "The first law enforcer is very talented."
"pity……"
Although he spoke with regret, Long Ying's tone was still calm and as plain as boiled water. "He lost himself in the power."
“Human desire is a double-edged sword.”
"It can hurt others, but it can also hurt yourself."
"The first law enforcer desires greater power."
"His character is not enough to allow him to possess this power."
"In the end, it wasn't that he controlled the power, but that he was consumed by it."
……
"Mr. Law Enforcer."
Long Ying's eyes became clearer, just like the sky above his head, boundless, deep and vast.
Xiao Xiao's appearance was faintly reflected inside.
“You are also very talented.”
Xiao Xiao twitched his eyebrows. Should he be happy to hear this?
He shifted his gaze and looked at Bai Mei above.
The petals are translucent and filled with the bright moonlight.
It emits a faint and hazy glow.
"Thank you. I appreciate the compliment."
Anyway, it's a good thing that he has talent, right?
"I will take this as a lesson from the past."
He always goes with the flow and doesn't like things that are too troublesome.
Therefore, he thought, he would not be able to accomplish the "feat" of the first law enforcer.
……
Long Ying looked at Xiao Xiao steadily for a while.
This law enforcer is different from the first one.
It's not the superficial external things that are different, but the essential differences.
In his eyes, it did not see the strong desire and greed for power.
Fortunately, it is not completely smooth sailing.
Otherwise, like the law enforcer, he doesn't have the identity of a law enforcer, and in his eyes, humans and monsters are no different.
This is the understanding that a qualified law enforcer should have.
That law enforcer did a great job.
However, unless things get out of control, the law enforcer will take action, not for the sake of watching the fun, but simply because he is too lazy to intervene.
Of course, such a law enforcer could not be said to have seriously neglected his duties, but he was not diligent in his duties either, which really distressed him during that period.
Now this great law enforcer made it very satisfied.
Don't pursue strength too much -
Force is only a guarantee for law enforcement officers to perform their duties, not the fundamental purpose. Law enforcement officers need to have a clear understanding of this.
Although he is a little afraid of trouble, he will not procrastinate or be vague about things that need his action.
Moreover, this law enforcer has become increasingly aware of his own identity.
This law enforcer...is becoming more and more like a qualified law enforcer.
A barely perceptible smile appeared on Long Ying's face, which usually had no expression.
Its silhouette began to fade.
I hope this law enforcer can do this for a little longer...
It likes this law enforcer very much.
like?
There was a slight pause on Long Ying's face as he was about to disappear.
ps: Thank you Cangqiong Qianjue for the reward~(*︶*)!
