Chapter 357: Meet Old Chief Lu
After all, when she was still working as a corpse movers in the hospital before, she had treated an old chief, but the appearance of the old man at that time was a little different from the photo, which also caused Nie Xixi not to connect the two together.
But now seeing the man in front of him, the suspicion in Nie Xixi's heart that never appeared was directly confirmed.
"It seems that the old chief is not dead yet." Nie Xixi jokingly spoke, and his face relaxed a lot.
"Yes......" The man looked at Nie Xixi with a helpless look on his face, "But the army is not suitable for me, and I don't want to stay." ”
As he spoke, the man looked towards the house on the side, with some bitterness in his eyes, but he sighed lightly, and the next moment he also put away the emotions in his heart, and smiled slightly at Nie Xixi: "I'm sorry, I said a little too much, you want to find your father, right?"
"Hmm." Nie Xixi nodded, "If it's convenient, please help inform me." ”
The man listened to Nie Xixi's words, and just smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll go and say it, but my father has been a little moody recently, whether he will see you, I don't dare to guarantee."
As he spoke, the man threw a helpless look at Nie Xixi.
Looking at the man's reaction, Nie Xixi threw a grateful smile at him: "Whether you see it or not, it's already very grateful."
Listening to Nie Xixi's words, the man didn't say anything more, said a few simple greetings, and turned around and walked directly towards the house behind him.
Nie Xixi looked at the man's back, his fingers clenched tightly unconsciously, and his heart tightened again.
Even if it is now certain that Old Chief Lu is the old man he knew before, Nie Xixi is not at all sure about this matter.
Time passed bit by bit, Nie Xixi looked at the man who walked in, and the uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense.
Finally, the closed door in front of him opened, and the man walked out with some embarrassment, grabbing his hair, the man who was originally invincible in the mall, looked at Nie Xixi's eyes at this time, and his face was unconsciously dyed with a touch of red.
"How's it going?" Nie Xixi looked at the man in front of him and tentatively spoke.
Listening to Nie Xixi's words, the man hesitated for a moment, just sighed lightly, and then lightly opened to Nie Xixi's thin lips: "Father let you in."
Nie Xixi looked at the man's reaction, he had already thought that Weibo was going to be rejected, but after hearing the actual result, Nie Xixi's eyes couldn't help but widen, with a touch of disbelief in his eyes.
"The old chief wants to see me?" Nie Xixi looked at the man in front of him and spoke.
The man looked at the look on Nie Xixi's face, but he chuckled rarely, and then nodded: "Yes."
As he spoke, the man seemed to think of it
What is it, looking at Nie Xixi's eyes with a hint of hesitation: "But...... If you say something later, I hope you don't put it in your heart. ”
Listening to the man's words, Nie Xixi finally came back to his senses, put away the emotions on his face, threw a grateful smile at the man, and just shook his head with a smile: "No matter what, it's enough for the old chief to be willing to see me."
Opening his mouth, the man looked at Nie Xixi as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just turned into a soft sigh, and then smiled helplessly, and said softly: "Go in."
"Hmm." Zhu lips opened lightly, and Nie Xixi threw a reassuring smile at the man, and then turned around and entered the house.
After entering, even Nie Xixi, who was used to seeing a lot of big scenes, couldn't help but be slightly shocked by the scene in front of him.
It looks like an ordinary house from the outside, but after stepping in, you will find that the furnishings in the house are all old objects, and there are even many objects, all of which Nie Xixi has only seen in news publications, but he didn't expect that this kind of priceless antiques seems to be just the simplest decoration in the house in the old chief Lu.
If it were a different scene, Nie Xixi might be able to wonder for a moment if he had suddenly traveled to another time and space.
was shocked by the scene in front of him, and the old man's voice would sound behind Nie Xixi: "Girl, I haven't seen you for a long time,"
Listening to the voice behind him, Nie Xixi was slightly stunned, and then immediately turned his head and looked at the old man behind him, with a gentle and respectful smile on his face: "Hello old chief, it's true that I haven't seen you for a long time."
The old chief listened to Nie Xixi's words, just smiled and nodded, then sat down directly on the chair next to him, reached out and took the teapot on the side, and slowly poured himself a cup of tea.
"Sit down." Old Chief Lu gently held the teacup in his hand and whispered to Nie Xixi.
Nie Xixi listened to the words of the old chief, but he was not pretentious, he just smiled and thanked him softly, and then sat down respectfully in front of him.
Looking at the quiet and kind old man in front of him, Nie Xixi pursed his lips and sorted out the thoughts in his heart before he slowly spoke: "Old chief, in fact, I came here this time because I want to ask you something."
Old Chief Lu listened to Nie Xixi's words, his fingers holding the teacup paused slightly, and the kindness and gentleness on his face disappeared cleanly, but in an instant, it was directly transformed into a piece of seriousness and coldness.
Putting down the cup in his hand, Old Chief Lu turned the test to Nie Xixi in front of him, "Girl, you know it's not easy to see me, right?" ”
Listening to the old man's words, Nie Xixi withstood the pressure in front of him, his delicate little face was full of firmness, and his lips slowly spit out a word, with stubbornness: "Yes."
Nodding,
Old Chief Lu didn't seem surprised by Nie Xixi's answer, but just lightly turned his gaze to Nie Xixi's body again, and continued: "Shi Zhensheng is in trouble because of this incident, right?"
Old Chief Lu's words did not have a trace of euphemism, and directly said the things that Nie Xixi cared about the most in her heart and made her heart hurt the most.
Nie Xixi's fingers clenched unconsciously, and the scene in Shi Zhensheng's house before also appeared uncontrollably in her mind, biting her lower lip tightly, Nie Xixi didn't even know what to say for a while.
After all, just like what Chief Lu said, this incident was indeed the reason why Professor Shi was killed.
Taking a deep breath, Nie Xixi looked at the old man in front of him, slowly stood up, and bowed deeply to the old man in front of him: "Old Chief Lu, I know that what I did was not appropriate, but if this matter is not stopped and dealt with, there will only be more people killed, and for your safety, I am willing to use my life as much as possible to protect it."
She also knew that it was too rude, but like what happened in the center street before, she didn't know if it would happen, but what if she didn't find out in time next time?
Will those innocent people fall victim to their farce?
As long as he thought of this result, Nie Xixi only felt that his heart was depressed and uncomfortable.
After Nie Xixi finished speaking, he just stood in place, his body remained ninety degrees, maintaining a bowing posture, facing the old man in front of him, with a touch of firmness on his thin figure, without a trace of wavering.
Looking at Nie Xixi's reaction, Old Chief Lu's eyes flickered slightly, and he didn't speak immediately, but slowly put the porcelain cup in his hand to his lips again, sniffed it gently, and didn't have the slightest intention of letting Nie Xixi get up.
And so it went on for almost an hour.
Nie Xixi still maintained her initial movements, and there was no trace of fluctuation on her delicate little face, but the load of her body made her delicate and fair face appear a little unnatural flush, her body was stiff, and her forehead was even covered with a layer of sweat, and the clothes on her body were slightly wet with sweat.
There was even a slight tremor on his body, and his feet began to stumble slightly, but only his back was straight, and there was no wavering.
The load on his body, coupled with the recent physical consumption, Nie Xixi even felt a slight blackness in front of him, biting his lower lip, just when Nie Xixi was almost unstable, the old man in front of him finally put down the porcelain cup and opened his mouth again.
"Get up." Old Chief Lu's voice was faint, but it still carried a thick majesty.
Listening to Old Chief Lu's words, Nie Xixi was still bent over, his delicate little face was tightly tensed, obviously a posture that Old Chief Lu didn't stand up if he didn't express his position.
looked at the stubborn little girl in front of her, Lu
The old chief smiled and shook his head, the old man came to you with a touch of helplessness, but his eyes unconsciously relaxed a little: "Nie girl, do you think that the old man, I am a person who is afraid of death?"
Old Chief Lu's voice was faint, but it made Nie Xixi's body pause, and there was a touch of surprise in his heart, and he immediately raised his head towards the old man in front of him, and there was undisguised surprise in his clear eyes: "So you agreed?"
"I didn't say that." Old Chief Lu just shook his head gently, his wrinkled fingers gently rubbed the wall of the cup in front of him, and then slowly spoke, with a hint of nostalgia in his voice, "But now I want to remind you that the more you know about this matter, the more dangerous it may become for you, and it is actually more difficult for them to move me than to do it to you." ”
Speaking of this, the old man's serious eyes looked towards Nie Xixi.
Looking at each other, Nie Xixi saw the solemnity in the old man's eyes, and also saw the undisguised worry.
Listening to the words of the old chief Lu, there was no trace of fluctuation on Nie Xixi's delicate little face, it was still calm, and even the clear eyes were as calm as before, as if they didn't have any feelings for what was going on in his mouth. 、
"Old chief, I have long been mentally prepared for this matter." Saying that, Nie Xixi gently tucked the broken hair in his ear behind his ear, with a shallow smile on his face, revealing a gentleness, listening to the words of the old chief Lu, the whole person was much calmer than before, "I can't escape these things, and I can't escape either, I know that my ability is limited, and I know that I may not be able to do anything, but I still hope to make this farce end." ”
