Chapter 39 No One Believes
"Grandpa Luo, what did you do before?" I watched him pretend to be casual and asked.
I wanted to see if I could let Grandpa Luo tell the truth, but before Grandpa Luo could speak, Zhuo Yifan raised his hand and slapped me on the back of the head.
There was still some ridicule in his mouth and asked me: "Fat Jiu, are you stupid, this Uncle Luo must have been in charge of the spoon before, do you still need to ask?" ”
"Is it the palm or the palm?" I looked at Grandpa Luo and said casually.
Grandpa Luo's hand moved, and most of the soup in the soup spoon spilled.
"Palm-eyed? Do you think of my eyes? "Grandpa Luo looked at me, he squinted, I knew that his eyes were a little difficult to see, even reading the newspaper with a magnifying glass.
However, this is entirely because Grandpa Luo is old.
"Grandpa Luo, you came to Qingru to be the master, you must also like antiques, right?" I didn't give up the opportunity to ask, but continued to throw the topic to Grandpa Luo.
After hearing this, Grandpa Luo's face was a little stiff, and he just said lightly: "I'm not interested in antiques, I just came here to see the news of recruitment." ”
After saying that, Grandpa Luo put the noodles in a large bowl and asked me to call the others to come and eat together.
"How do you know there's anyone else?" Zhuo Yifan also came back to his senses and asked.
Grandpa Luo didn't panic in the slightest, but said naturally: "Didn't you go out with Xiao Ye?" Didn't Xiao Ye come back with you? ”
"That guy never eats in front of us, so don't worry about him." After Zhuo Yifan finished speaking, he picked up the big bowl and walked towards the canteen, and asked me to go to the backyard to call Xiao Liu'er over.
I nodded, glanced at Grandpa Luo standing at the kitchen door, and hurried towards the backyard.
In the backyard, Zhuo Yifan had already set up a room for the mouse and Xiao Liu'er, and before I could go in, I heard the weak cry of the mouse.
"Hey, even if I don't die of poison, I have to starve to death, I'm dying, I'm going to die, so I have to be a full ghost, right?" The mouse's voice sounded weak, but it was clearly organized, and it should be fine, so I approached the room, glanced at Xiao Liu'er, and asked him to go to the dining hall to eat first.
Xiao Liu'er has always been excited, and immediately understood and went out of the room.
The mouse drooped his eyelids, trembled slightly, and when he saw that Xiao Liu'er was gone, he dragged out his voice and asked, "Ninth Master, where did the six brothers go?" It's not going to be dinner, is it? ”
"No, I'm going to wash, I'm going to get rancid all the way." I smiled and talked as I covered the mouse with a quilt.
The mouse's stomach gurgled and he hadn't eaten in days, and he rolled his eyelids with hunger.
"Ninth Master, it's better for you to give me some laxatives, otherwise, I will really starve to death." The mouse looked at me and pleaded.
"No, Xiao Ye said, you can't eat anything, sleep, you won't be hungry when you fall asleep." I dragged a chair over and sat on the edge of his bed.
He swallowed and closed his eyes weakly.
I don't know if he fell asleep or passed out, but after half an hour, his breathing became even, and I got up and tiptoed out of his room to find Xiao Lengyan.
Along the way, I didn't have the courage to ask Xiao Lengyan if I still had to go back to get this fragment.
"Come in."
As soon as I approached his door, I heard Xiao Lengyan's deep voice from the wooden door, which made me even more nervous.
I took a deep breath and pushed open the door to see Xiao Leng sitting on the edge of the bed, holding the fragment that I had "lost" in his hand.
"Xiao?" I looked at him in amazement.
He calmly tucked the fragment into his sleeve, then waved at me and motioned for me to close the door.
"Xiao Ye, what's going on?" I closed the door and stared at him.
It seems that I am not mistaken, this thing was not put on me from the beginning.
Xiao Lengyan asked me to show Zhuo Yifan something before, which directly misled me and made me think that the fragment was here.
As a result, I secretly cried several times with guilt along the way, but I didn't expect to be "played" by Xiao Lengyan.
"There is eyeliner among us." Xiao Lengyan saw that there was anger and grievance in my eyes, so he said directly.
"Impossible? In the car, they are all their own people. "I'm pretty sure.
Xiao Lengyan's blue eyes, squinting slightly, looked at me for a long time: "How do you know it's impossible?" What is a person? I used to not even believe in myself, Jiu'er, you have to remember that you can't trust anyone but yourself. ”
"What about you?" I looked at him.
He looked away from my face: "I said, just trust yourself. ”
"Now that we have this fragment, what are we going to do next?" I asked Xiao Lengyan a little eagerly, feeling that the cunning murderer behind the scenes was about to reveal his true face.
"Now that we have the chips, naturally someone will come to the door, and of course, I will find a way to solve the secret in this fragment." After Xiao Leng finished speaking, he looked at me again: "And you, during this time, just stay in Qingru obediently and don't go anywhere." ”
"Am I just helpless?" I felt an indescribable frustration in my heart.
"Jiu'er, this matter can't be solved for generations, I have also groped and inquired for a long time before I have a clue, the water here is too deep, if you have been with me all the time and know the whole truth, I am afraid that you will be drowned early!" Xiao Lengyan's words made me a little foggy.
Seeing that I didn't understand, the corners of his eyes rose slightly, as if he was smiling, and there was a rare touch of tenderness in his cold eyes.
I saw him take out a fine snuffbox from the bedside drawer and hand it to me.
This is the antique he prepared for me to pass this "exam", and it is not too exaggerated to buy this antique for 1,000 yuan, because the bottom of this snuff box is a little flawed.
"Master Xiao, I've bothered you about this matter, I want to solve it myself." With that, I put the snuffbox back on the table.
"Those guys outside won't honestly "compete" with you, when the time comes? "He's worried about me.
"Master Xiao, this kind of trivial matter, I think, I should be able to do it well, don't worry about me, this way, you are the hardest, rest well." I looked at him, and he looked down at me, thinking that he would persuade me, but who knew that he nodded slightly, and his silver-white hair shook slightly, and it looked very dazzling in the light.

"Xiao Jiu, that kid is down-to-earth, if the pawnshop gives him a chance, he should be able to make a difference." Grandpa Luo's voice dragged on a little long, and he seemed to be very tired.
