Chapter 14 [The Oriole Now] (1)

Luo Lie felt his scalp tightening, and he always held a skeptical attitude towards what Luo Xingmu told him. Now seeing this photo made him even more confused about Luo Xingmu's words. But he could not trust the two people in front of him. Even if Luo Xingmu had ulterior motives for those things, how could he know that the sparrow didn't have other intentions? He deliberately pretended to be confused and said, "Is the father..."

His question made Maqu feel relieved. Perhaps he had not disclosed too much information to him on the train, and replied softly: "Ma Boxuan!"

Luo Lie shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it!"

The sparrow was not angry and continued, "Although we don't know what Luo Xingmu said to you, we dare to conclude that he told you a lie."

Luo Lie smiled indifferently and said, "He is just one of my distant uncles. We have never even met each other. I went to Fengtian to visit him specifically. It's great! I did go to the coffin shop, but I didn't see him in the coffin shop."

Fu Bo opened the drawer and took out two house deeds and a jade slip from it.

Luo Lie was shocked. He hurriedly looked down at his suitcase, still holding it in his hand. He had checked it in the car just now and it was locked well, and he had not even moved the seal marked on the suitcase.

Uncle Fu pointed to his suitcase and signaled him to open it and check it again.

At this time, Luo Lie no longer cared about the so-called secret. He opened the suitcase and carefully checked it. Then he found that two pieces of white paper were stuffed into the envelope used to hold the house deed. As for the jade slip wrapped layer by layer, after unpacking the outer packaging, there was a glass inside. Luo Lie felt that his face seemed to have been slapped, and a hint of embarrassing smile appeared on the corner of his lips. From beginning to end, the lock on the suitcase was smooth. Even if he left the carriage and went to the dining car to drink, he brought the suitcase with him. No one should have opened it except himself, but why did the things inside disappear?

Sparrow said: "You are designing to deal with the Director's wife, but unfortunately the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole is behind. When you are focusing on your goal, Uncle Fu has already checked your suitcase."

Uncle Fu's hands were placed flat on the table, with thick fingers and thick joints. On the surface, this was definitely not a pair of smart hands, but he could steal the house deeds and jade slips from the clever Luo Lie's hands without anyone noticing. If it weren't for seeing them with his own eyes, Luo Lie wouldn't believe it.

Luo Lie picked up the black tea, took a sip, and looked at the sparrow with a smile: "It sounds really the same. If I'm not wrong, the rickshaw driver who pulled me at the station and the snipers who fired cold guns on the bank of the Liao River were all arranged by you." In his opinion, this was the most reasonable explanation. Along the way, the suitcase left his sight only when the ice layer broke and he fell into the Great Liao River, Uncle Fu was most likely to have completed the replacement of the pillars during this period, otherwise he would not have noticed it.

"It's not ours who shot, we will never put our companions in danger." The sparrow said seriously.

Uncle Fu didn't say anything, but quietly lined up the six flying knives on the table. Luo Lie saw the flying knives, and then subconsciously touched the knife cover at his waist. As expected, he was empty. The six flying knives he left were all arranged on the table. Just as he walked into the Nanman Library, the remaining flying knives were still inserted into the sheath, but now they were gone. The only contact between him and Uncle Fu was when he shook hands just now.

The temperature inside was not high, but fine sweat oozed out of Luo Lie's forehead. He truly realized that the old man he was facing was an unfathomable master of thieves, and his technique would definitely make the blind man who claimed to be a master admire him.

"Do you know where Luo Xingmu went?"

Luo Lie still shook his head: "I don't know!"

Bo Fu's deep eyes stared at Luo Lie's eyes, trying to peek at his true thoughts from the slight fluctuations in his eyes. However, to his disappointment, although Luo Lie was young, he was extremely cunning and his eyes were consistently calm.

Sparrow said: "Why did he hand over such an important thing to you?"

Luo Lie laughed, took out the cigarette box, and politely solicited Uncle Fu's opinion before lighting it: "Is that OK?"

Uncle Fu pointed to the sign of smoking ban and fire prevention on the wall. Luo Lie smiled apologetically and took the cigarette box back: "He is one of my distant uncles. I have never met him in the past. He has no other relatives in this world. I don't know where he learned my whereabouts, so I wanted to hand over these things to me. He has little property, only two houses, so I have the opportunity to sell them for charity. It's that simple."

The sparrow picked up the jade slip and said, "Do you know what this is?"

Luo Lie shook his head: "It's our Luo family's thing, so I leave me a souvenir. It's like a ghostly talisman on it, and I don't know it at all."

Fu Bo was suspicious and handed the look with the sparrow. The sparrow took out a sketchbook and handed it to Luo Lie. Luo Lie browsed it casually. It was drawn on it and was recorded with a fountain pen. It was mixed with a few strange words, which were Xiawen from the inscription of Dayu, but no annotation was made.

Sparrow said: "This is my father's sketchbook, and there are many symbols similar to those on the jade slip."

Luo Lie smiled bitterly and said, "I am not a scholar, nor an ancient writing expert. I am a pastor. I know a little about the Bible. I may be able to answer this for you. As for Luo Xingmu, although I am my distant uncle, who am I? I don't know anything about him. I dare to swear to Jesus that I don't know where he is. If I lie, I will go to hell!" Luo Lie said this with confidence. He really doesn't know where Luo Xingmu went? In fact, he did not pay enough attention to the things that Luo Xingmu gave him. It was just that the intervention of the sparrow in front of him made him realize that Luo Xingmu's affairs were far less simple than they seemed on the surface. He might have taken a lot of trouble from Luo Xingmu.

The sparrow took back the sketchbook: "You really don't recognize any of the words on it?"

Luo Liedao: "I read theology but not history?"

Uncle Fu stood up and walked towards the office inside. After he left, Luo Lie pointed to the things on the table and said, "If I finish asking, can I get my things back and leave here?"
