Time Manipulator

As soon as Bai Qiu said this, although Li Mu couldn't understand, Li Murong's expression changed. The two key words "fifth class" and "probationary student" were really cleverly selected.The association's trials are held every three years. Li Murong is a student of the fourth class. After the season, he was directly transferred to the association. The sixth class was transferred back to the academy for some reason. So for Li Murong, the fifth class Time is completely blank.

Besides, the word "probationary student" is a very delicate term, which means that this person has passed the preliminary examination, but has not finally entered the academy. This kind of person will not be recorded in the academy, and no information will be kept, including recommender at the time.

Li Murong pinched the bridge of his nose, and smiled: "That's right, he knows how to do it." After speaking, his eyes wandered between the two of them, and he said, "Now, on behalf of the Supervision Section, I will accuse Li Mu of two crimes, no, three. item - unauthorized use of shielding devices inside the academy, unauthorized escape during confinement -"

"Wait a minute!" Li Mu panicked, "Only two items!"

"There is the last item, unauthorized use of spells outside the academy. This item is the most serious!" After Li Murong finished speaking, he was about to reach out to beat him, but Bai Qiu blocked it with his hand. The difference in height caused Li Murong to be defeated immediately. Lu stared fiercely at Bai Qiu for a while, then withdrew his hand, and said flatly: "You can't get rid of this matter, you have to go back with us to assist in the investigation."

"Master, I..."

"Shut up!" Li Murong shouted.

"Can't what I said be used as evidence in court?"

"Ha ha."

Bai Qiu leaned down and whispered in Li Mu's ear, "It's okay, don't be afraid, I'll accompany you."

Li Mu lifted his eyes weakly to look at him: "Are you going to die with me?"

Bai Qiu frowned, "Don't talk nonsense."

Li Murong walked in the front, pressed his watch a few times with his right hand, the grassland that had been burned before him suddenly disappeared, and a small building like a kindergarten appeared in front of him.

Space connectivity.

"This is the interrogation center of the association." Bai Qiu explained to Li Mu in his ear.

Li Mu's legs went limp, he stepped forward and hugged Li Murong's arm and asked desolately, "Master, you really don't want to kill me, do you?"

Li Murong looked at his cowardly expression with satisfaction, and raised the corner of his mouth: "It depends on your performance."

As soon as the words fell, two people came out of the gate, nodded to Li Murong, and then they were about to take Li Mu away.Li Murong stretched out his hand to stop him, and said with a smile: "This is my apprentice, you can't move." Then he pointed to Bai Qiu: "The origin of this person is unknown, I hope you can investigate carefully."

Li Mu immediately looked at Bai Qiu worriedly, and Bai Qiu gave him a reassuring look, and then gave Li Murong a deep look, before following those two people in.

"Master, is he alright?" Li Mu asked in a low voice.

Li Murong flew over with a sharp look: "You should worry about yourself!" Then he grabbed Li Mu's arm and walked inside.

Li Murong directly took Li Mu to an interrogation room to sit down, and then he went out by himself.Li Mu looked around, he didn't expect that the interrogation center was so lively and cute on the outside, but so serious on the inside, it was a typical example of duplicity.Sitting in this kind of dark room, even a person who has done nothing wrong will panic, not to mention that Li Mu has three accusations on him.

In Li Mu's heart, there was a total of three accusations... Li Mu knew the first two, but the last one... Li Mu was a little confused.Li Mu secretly touched the small bell that was stuffed tightly with toilet paper in his arms, wondering if it had something to do with it.

At this time, someone opened the door and came in. Li Mu raised his head and saw that it was an acquaintance—Gu Xilin.

This is the third person Li Mu met after he came into contact with the association. When he joined the association, it was this person who gave him an initial test.Gu Xilin is famous for his good temper, he can be rounded and flattened like dough, but when he meets him in this situation, no matter how good-tempered he is, Li Mu will be terrified.

"Hello, remember me? We meet again." Gu Xilin greeted naturally.He moved a chair and sat opposite Li Mu.

Li Mu said half-deadly: "I hope I don't see you here."

"It's the same when seeing other people, there's no difference." After saying this, Gu Xilin paused, looked around, and said in a mysterious voice, "Besides, I was found by Murong through the back door."

Li Mu was shocked.

Gu Xilin regained his serious expression, lowered his head and flipped through the file in his hand, "What were you doing at 15:21:[-] am on No. [-] of this month?"

Li Mu swallowed his saliva speechlessly, complaining in his heart, ever since he joined this association, no matter what he does, he has to count down to the second—some of them need to be more accurate, Li Mu shook his head honestly, and said: "You are so accurate. , I can't remember."

Gu Xilin stared at Li Mu strangely, and said after a while: "No manipulator would say such a thing. If you don't remember the time, it means you can't control any space. In this way, your confession won't have any meaning when submitted." Yes, you have to think carefully."

"I'm in class." Li Mu said after thinking about it.

Gu Xilin's eyes were aggressive, and he was no longer friendly like usual: "I'm asking what you were doing at that time."

"I don't know." Li Mu's palms were cold, and Gu Xilin stared at him closely, and then he panicked.For a long time, his impression of Gu Xilin has always been that of the smiling and kind-faced young man when he first met. It was the same at the beginning of the interrogation. The opening remarks obviously meant to take care of him, but now this person has a serious expression and burning eyes, staring straight at Li Mu makes Li Mu feel cold all over.

"As I said, there is no 'don't know' answer here."

Li Mu was at a loss, took a few breaths, and then said, "Don't you all know! Why are you asking me?"

Gu Xilin still stared at him without blinking, which put a lot of mental pressure on Li Mu, and Li Mu finally understood why so many unjust cases happened.It took a while before he admitted: "At that time, I was distracted while listening to the class."

"more specific."

Li Mu went crazy: "Does it have to be so formal?"

Gu Xilin lowered his head and flipped through the file again, "Li Mu, your situation is special because you are still a student, otherwise the two crimes you were charged by the Supervision Section would be enough for you to be dismissed or even dealt with more seriously, so you Think clearly, all your testimony will directly affect Li Murong's future."

"What does it have to do with my master?" Li Mu was puzzled.

Gu Xilin said with a bit of resentment: "Li Murong was trapped in a cocoon, and was misunderstood by cleverness. I didn't expect you to be so courageous as to escape from the academy. He is your recommender, equivalent to your guardian in the association. He has to bear part of the big mistake he made."

Li Mu was surprised: "Why didn't he tell me?"

"These things have nothing to do with you, you just have to tell the truth."

Li Mu fell silent, staring blankly at the table, wondering what he was thinking, Gu Xilin didn't rush, just sat and waited for his reaction.After a long time, Li Mu found a small thing wrapped in toilet paper from his arms, and sent it to Gu Xilin, hesitantly said: "...that's it, at the time you mentioned, I was playing with this."

Gu Xilin took a look at Li Mu, took the small package of toilet paper, and opened it layer by layer, revealing a small bell with a strange shape—this is a small oblate bell, but it is very leaky, and the outer metal layer seems to be broken by someone. It was in the shape of a bell, and the color was very strange, unlike the normal metal colors. Gu Xilin shook it slightly, almost without any sound, but he keenly felt the abnormal fluctuations in the air.

When he came here before, Li Murong had already explained to Gu Xilin about Li Mu's offense, so he was not too surprised, but asked Li Mu with interest: "Is this the shielding device that Murong mentioned?"

Li Mu lowered his head and nodded.

"How did you get it? What did you use it for?" Gu Xilin continued to ask.

Li Mu thought for a while, and then said in a low voice: "The bell inside this bell is polished by me with the leftover control stone in Master's laboratory. I found that when it collides with this metal, the space string will be generated The vibration was very small, so I made this thing myself. The next day there was a practical class, so I wanted to see if this thing works, so I brought it to class.”

"What happened?" Gu Xilin continued to stare at Li Mu.

Li Mu scratched his hair wearily, "There is a loophole in the teaching space, and the teaching clock is out of order."

Gu Xilin took a deep breath, and it took him a long time to pull out a forced smile: "No wonder Murong said you are a genius."

Li Mu shook his head: "That's all I can say. I really don't know about the rest. There is also the matter of running away. Master told me that I would be killed. I was afraid, and then I ran away."

Compared with before, Gu Xilin's attitude has eased a lot. At this moment, he actually laughed and asked, "Escape? How did you escape?"

Li Mu paused. He had no way to answer this question. If he told the truth, it would definitely involve Bai Qiu. He didn't know anything about the association, so he didn't know what kind of punishment would be imposed for such a thing.

Gu Xilin seemed to see Li Mu's worries, shrugged and said, "It doesn't matter, you escaped in the academy, this matter is not under the control of our interrogation center, I don't have to ask."

Li Mu's eyes lit up.

Gu Xilin smiled and said, "But...the last one, you are not so lucky. Liu Li, do you know this person?"

Li Mu looked at him suddenly, and asked with a surprised expression: "What does it have to do with him?" Liu Li is exactly Lao Liu's full name.
