"What do you think this is?"

Lex held a thirty-centimeter-long dark gray sculpture and showed it to several people, and he gently handed the sculpture with a classical anthropomorphic shape and engraved Kryptonian characters to Joseph, and asked, "Professor, I believe you will be able to answer my doubts." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

As he said this, Lex kept staring at the expressions of several people. As he expected, when he saw the sculpture, the faces of the three Cachi people, including Joseph, changed. It's just that compared to Kayla and Jerommel, two people who are immature in their expression control, Joseph's expression only changes slightly and then returns to its original state. It's a pity that this scene was noticed by Lex, who was amazingly observant.

"Unbelievable! This is 'Palak'! I didn't expect it to really exist! ”

Among them, Jeromel was the first to exclaim, after he saw this sculpture, he was as shocked as if he had seen a vault with hundreds of millions of gold, and he was so excited that he subconsciously said a noun.

As soon as these words were spoken, the hearts of the three Kachi tribesmen, including Jeromar, were apprehension. It was useless to take it back, because Lex had memorized the term clearly.

"'Parak'?"

Lex's subconscious question made the faces of the two young Katchi people, Jeromar and Kayla, especially Jeromar, look at Lex's face with vigilance and horror. As if to prevent him from leaking his mouth again, he quickly lowered his head to avoid Lex's gaze and stopped talking.

Even so, Jeromel's eyes were fixed on the sculpture in Joseph's hand. If Delos was here, he would definitely complain that this guy's eyes were about to fall out.

Seeing this, Kayla on Jeromel's side also subconsciously avoided Lex's eyes and turned her head to the side. It's just that compared to Jeromayre, a fool with terrible acting skills, she is still smart and knows how to pretend to know nothing.

"The Chinese phrase 'there is no silver three hundred taels here' refers to this situation."

Taking the expressions of the two into his eyes, Lex secretly despised them in his heart, then looked at Joseph, who had a steady expression on the side, pointed to the sculpture in his hand and asked:

"Professor Joseph, do you know what this 'Palack' is?"

"Hmmm......"

Joseph first picked up the sculpture and groaned for a moment, fiddling with it carefully, examining all the details of the object. After a long while, he looked at Lex and said slowly, "It's the ancient cooking utensils of the Kachi people. ”

"Cooking utensils?"

Lex chewed these words quietly, but in his heart, he had already slapped this old bastard with super high acting skills a few times. If he hadn't noticed the expressions of these people before, he might have believed Joseph's nonsense. But now, after this product is exposed, he actually pretends to be stupid.

"These people are too wary of me, and it's impossible to get some secrets out of their mouths like they did when they got the news from Kayla before."

Lex felt a little helpless in his heart. At first, he pretended to be a lover of ancient literature, and from Kayla, a girl who was chasing the ancient Kachi monuments, he extracted some of the secrets about the Kryptonians. It's just that in order to gain control of this cave as soon as possible, and to prevent others from causing damage to this place or spreading news to the outside world, he jointly controlled some sensitive information about the cave from the town through his own hackers and people from the police department, and at the same time obtained the ownership of this cave through some means.

It is also because of this that Kayla, who was not exclusive to Lex, also took the initiative to distance herself from him. If it weren't for Lex telling her that something had been dug up from here, she really wouldn't have found two experts to come and analyze the so-called ancient characters for Lex.

However, Lex was still thinking too simply, and he was sure that Joseph and Jeromel were both connoisseurs. But one of them was hostile to him and unwilling to cooperate, and the other played him like a monkey. This made Lex instantly discourage his intention to cooperate with this gang sincerely.

"I really am, why do I care so much about the privacy of these people in the first place? The world is in crisis, and I still care about the privacy of these Kachi people with brain problems? Wouldn't it solve the problem by having Delos over in the first place? With him, no matter what news can be set out. ”

Lex cursed himself secretly in his heart, and gritted his teeth at Joseph and said, "Professor Joseph, your professional ability has really helped me too much, thank you very much for your generous help." ”

As he spoke, Lex quickly took the sculpture from Joseph's hand and handed it to his researcher before the three Kachi people could react. After doing all this, not to mention that Kayla and Jeromel were on the face drama again, even Joseph subconsciously gritted his teeth.

Seeing this, Lex chuckled and said to a few people: "This handicraft is very collectible, so I'll take it away first." ”

As Lex's words fell, the faces of the three Kachi people changed again. Kayla and Joseph wanted to say something, but they had no choice but to swallow the words in their mouths.

No way, even if the contents of this cave are related to the ancient Kachi people, but legally, this cave and everything in the cave belong to Lex. Coupled with the previous behavior of several people lifting stones and shooting themselves in the foot, if you take the initiative to explain now, not only will you not be able to get this sculpture, but you will also completely lose the trust of the other party.

This situation will most likely lead to Lex forbidding them to approach or study the cave, which would be a great loss for those like them who are interested in ancient Kachi culture.

There is still a chance to solve the problem through the law if you want to save this sculpture and everything in the cave, but once you open your mouth and let the other party take precautions in advance, then even if there is a law, it is difficult to have a chance to solve this problem.

It's a pity that Kayla and Joseph can keep their mouths, which doesn't mean that Jeromel, a nerd with low emotional intelligence, can keep his mouth shut.

"No, you can't take it! That's the treasure of our Kachi people! ”

Jeromel shouted, and tried to run around Lex towards the statue. It's just that as soon as he made a move, he was stopped by several bodyguards next to Lex.

"A treasure of the Kachis?"

Lex playfully glanced at Joseph and Kayla, who were trying to play dumb again, snorted coldly and said to his men, "Take that sculpture away, there's no need to waste time!" ”

To be honest, Lex doesn't have any ill feelings towards a minority like the Kachi. Personally, he admires the feelings of the Kachi people for their history and culture, so it is not a big deal to be hated and hostile because of the cave.

But when these idiots are constantly hostile to him, hindering him, and treating him like monkeys because of the legend of the Kryptonians, who are most likely alien invaders, they are constantly hostile to him, hindering him, and treating him as monkeys.

With that in mind, Lex took out a specially encrypted cell phone and dialed Deloth's mobile number.

It didn't take long for Delos's cell phone to get through. As soon as he called, Delos, who was on the other side of the phone, said, "Lex, what's wrong?" ”

"The Kachi experts I got were a bit dishonest."

Lex glanced at the three Kachi people and said angrily, "So I need your help." ”

"I see."

Delos on the other side of the phone understood what Lex was trying to say, but he had a question before that.

"By the way, you all know how neurotic and stubborn minorities like the Kachi are, why didn't you look for me in the first place? Don't tell me that it's wrong to violate human rights and privacy, I know you too well. When it comes to such a big thing, you can't care about it. ”

At the end, Delos couldn't help but look weird: "You don't have a crush on any of the women in it, so you don't want to do that, do you?" ”

"Please, do you think I'm that kind of person? Besides, it doesn't happen even in the kind of situation you said. Just find someone who knows and let you ask well, it won't be so troublesome at all. Lex denied if he wanted to, "Unless ......"

At this, Lex suddenly stopped. He suddenly turned his head to look at the diamond-shaped indentation in the depths of the cavern, and then at Kayla. Vaguely, he suddenly knew why he was wasting his time doing such a thing. Thinking of this, Lex's face couldn't help but change greatly, and he hurriedly said to Delos: "Don't talk nonsense! Hurry up! I'm being controlled! ”

Unexpectedly, as soon as Lex's voice fell, the sculpture placed in the alloy vessel by his subordinates suddenly burst into a dazzling golden light......
