I Became the Demon King of Lust

Early the next morning, when I was about to head out, I heard a knock on the door.

When I looked out the peephole, I found that it was two people who looked like detectives that were waiting outside for me. I could also see the badges that were hanging on their bodies, showing that they were indeed cops.

As soon as I saw this, my body couldn't help start trembling.

But then I quickly forced myself to calm down since I had already expected this to happen.

I took a deep breath to calm down as much as I could before opening the door for them.

When they saw the door open, they immediately turned their eyes to look at me.

It was a pair of detectives, one female and one male.

When they looked at me, it was clear what they were thinking since they didn't even hide it in their gazes.

The female detective looked at me like I was the victim and the male detective looked at me like I was the culprit.

I didn't know why they were acting this way, but I already knew who to focus my power on.

After a moment of silence, I asked, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

The two of them didn't say anything at first before the female detective took the lead to bring out her badge. As she showed me her badge, she said, "I am Detective Ling with the city police. May we come in and ask you a few things?"

"Po-police?" I stammered out before pretending to gather up the courage to say, "Is there a problem?"

Ling Yue shook her head and said, "We just have a few questions to ask you, it'll be very quick."

I hesitantly looked at Xia Tian who was still glaring at me.

When Ling Yue saw this, she elbowed Xia Tian in the stomach before saying with a smile, "I apologize for him. He was just born with a natural mean face, so it's just the way that he looks."

I revealed a doubtful look, but in the end, I still said, "Alright, please come in."

I led the two of them into my small apartment and then seated them on the chairs in the living room while I sat down on the floor. This was a small apartment and I lived alone, so there were only two chairs in the first place…though the second chair only came to be because of Yue Ling…

After we were seated, Ling Yue asked, "Mister Lin, can you please tell me where you were last afternoon?"

When I heard this, I immediately said, "How do you know my name already? I haven't told you anything."

Ling Yue just said with the same smile on her face, "Mister Lin, we are the police. We have already checked your information before coming here since it's our job."

I revealed a surprised look before saying, "Oh."

Then I calmed down and said, "Well, after my awakening ceremony yesterday…I was dragged under the bridge by some bullies…"

The way that I said it almost seemed like I was ashamed of what had happened, which would be the normal reaction.

When Ling Yue and Xia Tian heard this, both of them immediately knitted their brows. But Ling Yue reacted first by calming down and revealing a smile again to say, "Can you please tell me what happened when you were with them?"

I revealed an embarrassed look when I heard this, but I still said in the end, "They…they brought me down there to bully me and then they suddenly decided to try and kill me by throwing me into the river."

Both Ling Yue and Xia Tian knitted their brows again when they heard this, but I had stopped at this point. I was acting as if I was too scared and embarrassed to say what had happened next.

But both Ling Yue and Xia Tian needed to know what happened next, so Ling Yue pushed me by saying, "Mister Lin, can you please tell us what happened next? It is very important."

I looked up at her with mist in my eyes when she said this and didn't say anything else.

However, seeing this caused Ling Yue to reveal a look of worry while Xia Tian knitted his brows even more.

Ling Yue softened her tone and said, "It's ok, take it slow and just tell us simply what happened. Nothing will happen to you."

I didn't react at first, but then I gave a slow nod in response to this before saying, "Alright, I'll try."

Ling Yue's hand trembled for a second, but she kept it by her side.

After taking a deep breath, I said, "After they tried to throw me into the river, they suddenly started fighting. I ran to the side when this happened hoping that they would forget about me, but I could hear a few things that they said. It seemed that the leader's girlfriend had been cheating on him with one of his followers and they had started fighting because of that.

As they kept screaming at each other, it didn't take long before fists started flying as well. During the commotion of this, I quickly escaped since they had completely forgotten about me. It was a good thing that I escaped when I did…or else they might have started hitting me too…"

Both Ling Yue and Xia Tian once again knitted their brows after hearing this.

But this time, it was Xia Tian who recovered first by asking in a gruff voice, "So you're saying that you don't know anything else? You ran away even though you're a man?"

I flinched when he said this and just covered my head with my arms.

Xia Tian was surprised when he saw this, but then he scoffed.

But because of this, Ling Yue glared at him before standing up to come to my side. As she stood beside me, she patted me on the shoulder to calm me down.

Eventually, I calmed down and looked back at them.

Ling Yue said, "It's alright now, it's alright now. You'll be fine now."

I looked up at Ling Yue when I heard this before suddenly asking, "You keep asking a lot of questions about Wang Bing and his followers, it seems like you're very interested in them. Could it be that your investigation is about them?"

Neither Ling Yue or Xia Tian said a word in response to this, but that didn't matter to me.

I suddenly revealed an excited look and said, "I knew it, it was related to them. Could it be that they're being investigated for their bullying? Or could it be that something finally happened to them? If it did, they completely deserved it!"
