Chapter 14 [The Oriole Now] (Part 2)

Seeing that the sparrow did not answer him immediately, Luo Lie first picked up the flying knife one by one, inserted it into the scabbard slowly, and then began to put away the two deeds, one of which was originally mortgaged by Ma Boxuan to Luo Xingmu. He hesitated for a moment and pushed the deeds in front of the sparrow: "Miss Ma, judging from the name above, this deed should belong to Lingzun, and the object should be returned to the original owner." The reason why he acted so generous was mainly because he wanted to settle the entanglement between him, and the people in front of him were not easy to deal with.

The sparrow glanced at the deed and quickly returned to Luo Lie's face: "Luo Xingmu is a tomb robber!"

Luo Lie's expression was unmoved: "Who he is has nothing to do with me, and I have no interest in his past."

The sparrow said in a low voice: "He deceived my father and caused him to die with hatred."

Luo Lie put the jade slip into the suitcase and locked the suitcase: "Sorry, I cannot take any responsibility for what Luo Xingmu did. If I knew the whereabouts of this person, I will tell you, but I don't know." From the words of Sparrow, he could infer that Ma Boxuan had encountered misfortune. It seems that many things Luo Xingmu said were not consistent with her. Luo Lie didn't want to pursue who was lying. For him, whether it was Luo Xingmu or Sparrow, he was just a passerby who met by chance. He didn't want his fate to have too much interaction with them, nor did he want to involve their grudges.

The sparrow said: "Do you know what Luo Xingmu did in the past?"

Luo Lie had already gotten up and picked up the box and walked towards the stairs.

"He colluded with the Japanese and smuggled the stolen cultural relics abroad, sold them to the country, and sold their nation!"

Luo Lie's pace has not stopped and he has already walked down the stairs.

The sparrow said angrily: "He used the text on a map to attract my father and deceived my father to find the Yu Shen Monument in the name of archaeology, but in fact he deceived my father and killed many innocent people..." She heard the sound of the door of the first floor, and a hint of disappointment appeared in her stubborn gaze. She bit her lip hard and was about to chase her, but she heard a sigh.

Uncle Fu appeared behind her again and whispered: "Miss, he may really not know Luo Xingmu's whereabouts, let alone what Luo Xingmu did, forget it!"

The sparrow stomped his feet, but still rushed down the stairs. Uncle Fu's expression showed some helplessness. He held a rubbing in his hand, but it was a text that was unmoved from the jade slip.

Luo Lie walked out of the Nanman Library, and the sparrow's car was still parked there. After a while, it was covered with snow. Luo Lie looked around. Because of the wind and snow, there were few pedestrians on the road. A black Buick sedan was parked not far ahead. The car did not turn off. Looking through the window, the three people inside were smoking and the car was filled with smoke.

One of them noticed Luo Lie's gaze and looked at him with full vigilance. Luo Lie smiled and strode away and walked forward. There were enough troubles we encountered today, and he didn't want to make any more troubles. The words of Sparrow just now were still echoing in his ears. In fact, Luo Lie did not believe that his serious and old-fashioned grandfather would be a tomb robber who touched gold and fought. Luo Xingmu might be his own uncle, but his grandfather never mentioned him. This shows that the old man was not satisfied with him. As for why Luo Xingmu took the initiative to come to him, Luo Lie has always been too lazy to think deeply, but the appearance of Sparrow made him start to be alert. One thing he could be sure that Luo Xingmu would never be as simple as entrusting his funeral on the surface. Sometimes what he saw in glasses may not be true.

"Stop it!" The sparrow's voice sounded from behind.

Luo Lie turned around and saw the sparrow chasing out in the wind and snow. Luo Lie shook his head helplessly. The girl had a perseverance, but she had enough troubles on her body. She really didn't want to cause any more trouble. Luo Lie did not stop but walked faster and faster. The sparrow began to trot. When she passed the black Buick, the door on the right suddenly pushed it away. The sparrow couldn't dodge. Because of inertia hitting the door, it made a panther! It also slipped under her feet and fell to the ground. Before she could get up from the ground, two men rushed out of the car and pointed the gun at the sparrow. One of them turned the gun's mouth and slammed the sparrow's head. The sparrow felt the stars in front of her eyes and fainted on the snow.

Everything happened in an instant. The two quickly dragged the sparrow into the car, closed the door, and the driver stepped on the accelerator and drove forward.

Luo Lie was attracted by the sound of the acceleration of the car. He turned around while running, but saw that the sparrow had lost its trace. The black Buick sedan passed by him. Luo Lie looked closely and saw the figure of the sparrow in the car. He was stunned for a moment, then chased after him, shouting: "Stop! Stop!"

The black Buick sedan drove forward quickly, and Luo Lie chased him wildly, but it was difficult to catch up with the car with his legs alone. Although Luo Lie tried his best, he was still pulled further and further by the car. He pulled out a flying knife and shot it. The flying knife turned into a cold light. He was originally aiming at the right rear wheel of the car. When he was about to hit the point, he missed the original target because of the bumpy body of the car and shot the taillight of the car. With a bang!, the taillight was smashed and glass fragments were spilled all over the ground.

Seeing that the car was driving farther and farther, Luo Lie could only be anxious. At this time, a European man wearing a pilot's leather hat and wearing a torn brown leather jacket drove a ragged military sidecar motorcycle to Luo Lie and shouted to him in a strange Northeast accent: "Big brother, do you want to take a ride?"

Yingkou is the earliest port to open a port to the outside world, gathering people from all over the world, including merchants, adventurers, ambitious people, mercenaries, and preachers. Therefore, it is not uncommon to see foreigners appear here, but the most common ones here are Japanese and Russians. The man in front of him has brown hair, blue eyes, tall figure, and typical German characteristics.

Luo Lie didn't even bother to think about it, so he stepped into the seat bucket and said to the man: "Catch up with the car in front!"

The European man slammed the accelerator but did not start it immediately, and then extended his spreading right hand to Luo Lie.

Luo Lie understood what he meant. Most of these foreigners were profit-oriented guys. He did not hesitate and took out a piece of silver dollar and put it in the man's hand.

The European man pinched the center of the silver dollar, blew skillfully, then put his ear close to his ear and listened, then smiled and said, "This is a deposit, get me nine more dollars after catching up!"
