The displeasure in Xu Beishan's heart has been revealed on his face, with his identity and status, he is still willing to put on a family posture and talk to this nephew, but Luo Lie actually wants to blackmail himself, since he was a child, he said that it was disrespectful, and since he was older, this kid really thinks very highly of himself, thinking that he can talk about conditions on an equal footing with him?

Xu Beishan had an urge to get angry, but he finally managed to control it, not because he remembered his master's kindness, but because he realized a reality, Jia Le is his most beloved son, if there is another person in this world that he really cares about, and it is worth his everything and even his life, this person can only be Jia Le.

For the sake of his son, he can only choose to endure, Xu Beishan immediately laughed after a short period of anger, his laughter was like the sun dispelling the dark clouds, his expression looked very hearty and amiable, but Luo Lie saw his hatred for himself from his condensed gaze.

Luo Lie didn't care about Xu Beishan's feelings, from a junior who was a gold digger and robbed the tomb to a powerful Manchurian party, how many hardships he had experienced only Xu Beishan himself knew, to be able to have today's achievements, not just hard work and luck can be achieved, if there is no superhuman scheming and means, it is impossible to do it.

At the beginning, Luo Lie originally hoped that the affection of the master could play some role, and Xu Beishan Nianzai's master-apprentice relationship with his grandfather might give him this face and open up to Liu Honggen, but after the last meeting, Luo Lie understood that it was useless at all.

Since feelings are useless, money is useless, and the method of value exchange can only be adopted, fortunately, Luo Lie knows what Xu Beishan values, he picked up a few coffees, smelled them, and then took a sip slowly: "The coffee is good." ”

Xu Beishan said: "No matter what you drink, it is related to your mood. ”

Luo Lie said: "That's right. ”

Xu Beishan was still thinking about it, he took out a cigar, Luo Lie walked over, and helped him light it very considerately, Xu Beishan said: "There is no way to clear the charge, but if a person dies, there will be no trouble." ”

Luo Lie nodded and said, "I can guarantee that they will disappear completely and will not leave you with any trouble." ”

Xu Beishan really appreciates this nephew, no wonder he can become the leader of the thief at such a young age, what he said just now was vague enough, he actually heard it clearly, Luo Lie said that the complete disappearance was definitely not to kill those subordinates, otherwise he would not have come to negotiate with him about the conditions.

Liu Honggen and the others didn't expect that there would be a chance to get out alive, which is directly related to Luo Hunt's efforts, Xu Beishan agreed to Luo Hunt's conditions, and found a few substitutes for the dead among the condemned prisoners, so that people could shoot them, in fact, the most important thing about this kind of thing is an explanation, the dead Japanese businessman Kazuo Sato actually died a normal death, not murder at all, it was the Japanese side that wanted to deal with the theft of Manchuria.

After Liu Honggen and his men were released, they immediately left Manchuria, and although they were lucky enough to escape this time, it was impossible for them to set foot on Manchurian soil again in a short period of time.

Luo Lie kept his promise, waited for a few days in Fengtian, and went to Beiping to play Jiale came back, and he was very happy to see Luo Lie.

Today's Jia Le has become a tall and strong young man, he warmly calls Luo Lie the eldest brother, remembering the fat boy he met at the beginning, and calling his uncle around him, Luo Lie can't help but sigh that time flies.

Jia Le returned to China this time not because he was successful in his studies, in fact, this kid did not have any achievements in learning, he went to North America for a few years, and he couldn't even speak a decent word of English, but he came back with a powerful Western boxing.

According to the normal time to return to school, he should have gone back to school by now, but he refused to go, and found countless excuses to stay in the country. Xu Beishan agreed to Luo Lie's conditions, and added another condition, he asked Luo Lie to help persuade his son to go back to school quickly, although this kid has not been back for a long time, there are a lot of baskets that can be passed, plus Xu Beishan has a lot of enemies, his son is in the country for a day, he has to ensure his son's safety, for which a lot of police power has been spent, although he is concerned about his son, but his son does not appreciate it, but says that he restricts his freedom.

Luo Lie said: "Why don't you kid go back to school?"

Jia Le smiled: "It's my father who asked you to help persuade me, right?"

Luo Lie smiled noncommittally.

Jia Le said: "He likes to read so much, why doesn't he read it himself?"

Luo Lie said: "Which father is not looking for his son Jackie Chan, he has a hard time for you, you must not live up to it." ”

Jia Le said: "I understand the truth, but I can't read, as long as I read a book, I have a headache." ”

Luo Lie said: "Do you have a bad headache?"

Jia Le nodded and said, "Amazing!"

Luo Lie let him fall asleep, hypnotized him, and helped him check his brain domain, Jia Le's headache should be the sequelae left by Feng Jiuqing's collection of the Black Sun Forbidden Dictionary in his brain domain back then, and it will take a certain amount of time to completely repair it.

The news of Luo Lie's appearance in Manchuria reached Huangpu, and when he first heard the news, Chen Haodong was suspicious, he first felt that it was unlikely, after all, Luo Lie had been missing for too long, and according to the information he had, Luo Lie should have died in the West Sea with Feng Jiuqing.

But with more and more news coming, some people said that they saw Luo Hunt in Manchuria, Chen Haodong believed it a little, and he felt uneasy because of this, now Luo Hunt is still the sect master of the thief, if he really has to come back, it is very likely that he will respond to all calls, and his goal of regaining power will be frustrated.

Since Chang Chai's mysterious disappearance, the entire Huangpu rudder has been in a leaderless situation, and many of the children who robbed the door in the past have thrown themselves into Liang Zaijun's door, because Liang Zaijun was also expelled from the door thief, so on the surface he has nothing to do with the thief.

Liang Zaijun opened a martial arts hall called Zhenwumen in the public concession, because he was good at martial arts, and his disciples received a lot.

If it wasn't for something important, Chen Haodong wouldn't take the initiative to come to the door, Liang Zaijun invited Chen Haodong to the backyard, and it could be seen from his tightly knit brows that he was in a bad mood, in Liang Zaijun's opinion, there is nothing to worry about now, a few thorns in the eye or eliminated by them, or left Huangpu, they have a good relationship with the upper echelons of the concession, and the most important thing is that they have found a backer.

Liang Zaijun said: "Mr. Chen has something to order?" He knew that Chen Haodong had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and nine times out of ten he had a task to hand over to him.

Chen Haodong sighed and said, "Have you heard about Luo Lie?"

Liang Zaijun said: "I've heard about it, recently there was news that he appeared in Manchuria, and he said that he had a nose and eyes, but I've always heard it as a false thing, and seeing it as believing." I haven't seen it with my own eyes, who knows if it's true or not?"

Chen Haodong said: "It's not true, it's really not fake." ”

Liang Zaijun said: "I think this thing is false nine times out of ten, Luo Lie has been missing for more than three years, he left with Feng Jiuqing, it is said that he disappeared in the West Sea, for this matter, I also specially sent someone to inquire, at that time Luo Lie and Feng Jiuqing entered the West Sea together, and after entering, they failed to surface again, I can be sure of this matter, there will be no mistake." ”

Chen Haodong said: "There are exceptions to everything, and your news may not be true." ”

Liang Zaijun said: "There shouldn't be a mistake, think about it, if Luo Lie is alive, why hasn't he appeared for so long? I think this matter is likely to be deliberately unleashed by someone who wants to create chaos inside the thief's door, and it's not the sparrows." ”

Chen Haodong said: "Groundless wind may not be without a cause. ”

Liang Zaijun said: "Don't say that Luo Lie is already dead, now even if he is alive, he can't make any waves, the old guy who supported him is dead, the Huangpu rudder is useless, Chang Chai and his forces have been completely eliminated by us." The entire south of the Yangtze River is already under your actual control. As for the Manchurian rudder, Liu Honggen and his backbone forces were all shot, and the theft of doors was also characterized as an illegal organization by the local government.

Chen Haodong said: "Don't forget the Iron Warrant. ”

Liang Zaijun said: "What era is it, the iron warrant may still have some effect on deterring the uninformed and uncourageous juniors, in fact, how many people in the door have seen the iron warrant with their own eyes? As long as I want to, I can make hundreds of them at any time." Probably thinking that his words were a bit too big, Liang Zaijun smiled and said: "You are the authentic descendant, who doesn't know that you are the one who is qualified to serve as the head of the family? ”

Chen Haodong listened to him reasonably, yes, what era is it, maybe the only one who cares about the iron warrant is himself, if he wasn't obsessed with finding the iron warrant, maybe he would have become the owner of the door long ago, of course, it is also related to Fu Bo's opposition.

Chen Haodong said: "Since there is news, we can't be too careless." ”

Liang Zaijun saw that he was uneasy, he should have been frightened by Luo Hunt back then, and he was still scared, he nodded and said: "Mr. Chen, I will immediately send more people at the railway station and dock, as long as he appears in Huangpu, I will grasp his movements as soon as possible." ”

At this time, Luo Lie was sitting on the train going south, and he left with Liu Honggen and Ge Lide, both of whom were in charge of the Manchurian rudder, and were also arrested and imprisoned on suspicion of murdering Japanese businessman Kazuo Sato.

The three of them all put on makeup, for their industry, disguise was originally commonplace, not to mention Luo Lie's high feet, they all made up as old men in their sixties, and Greid was still a master of forging documents, and he used his forged documents to board the train smoothly.

After the train passed the Shanhaiguan, Liu Honggen found that there were a lot of thieves at the station, their eyes were very poisonous, especially their own people, they could basically see through it at a glance, Liu Honggen lowered his voice and told Luo Lie about this situation, he felt unusual.

Luo Lie smiled disapplauded: "There is no impermeable wall in the world, and some people definitely don't want me to go back to Huangpu." ”

Liu Honggen said: "I caused trouble for my husband. This is also their agreement in advance, and they will no longer use the title of the door master on the road.

Luo Lie smiled faintly, at this time, another police officer came to check the ticket documents, the tickets of the three people were real, but the documents were fake, Ge Lide coughed and handed over the documents, and the police returned them to him after a glance, and did not see the flaws at all.

Liu Honggen deliberately said with a Jiaonan accent: "Sir, didn't you just check it, why do you have to check it again?"

The policeman glared at him and said, "There's a wanted criminal in the car." ”

Liu Honggen smiled: "We are all good citizens." ”

The police officer cut and said, "It's up to you, I'm afraid you don't have the ability to kill." He patted the checked documents and tickets in Liu Honggen's hands.

The police were about to continue the inspection downward, but they heard an angry reprimand from behind: "Hooligans, you take advantage of the old lady!" Then remembered a loud slap, everyone looked, but it was a pair of men and women in the back passage who clashed, two police officers were attracted by their movements, and walked over to stop, and at this time a man wearing a top hat came to Luo Lie and Liu Honggen squeezed and sat down, Liu Honggen was about to speak, the man made a gesture, Liu Honggen was stunned, this person showed a unique gesture to steal the door.

Liu Honggen stood up, the man took the opportunity to move to the window, and Luo Lie also got up and pretended to be lively, but in fact, he was covering the man who suddenly joined. They had already seen that the two men and women involved in the confrontation were in a group with this person, and that they were making a fuss in order to attract the attention of the police so that the man would have enough time to hide.

A policeman also came from the next carriage, they stopped the conflict between the man and the woman, and then continued to check the ticket, because they had just checked Luo Lie's side, so they didn't look too much here, and passed by the suspicious man.

After the police left, the man in the top hat smiled at Luo Lie and said, "Thank you!"

Liu Honggen said: "From the west?"

The man said: "Horn mouth Huang family." ”

Liu Honggen nodded, he had already determined that the man was a thief.

The man evaded the inspection, did not linger long, and immediately moved to the next carriage.

Liu Honggen explained to Luo Lie in a low voice: "It should be the Xiliang branch, and unlike here, they mainly take it." "Theft is different from taking from a burglar, theft is stealing other people's property without the object noticing, and taking is much more direct and rude, simply put, it is a roadblock robbery and robbery. Although it was one of the thieves in the past, it was no longer under the control of the thieves at the end of the Qing Dynasty, let alone participating in the affairs of the thieves.

The road was not smooth, not only the police checked frequently, but also encountered a car robbery when passing through Ludi, but no one doubted the identity of Luo Hunt and the three people, sitting on this swaying train, they finally came to Huangpu without danger.

According to Luo Lie's meaning, Liu Honggen and Ge Lide actually didn't need to follow them to Huangpu, after all, the two had just been out of trouble for a short time, and they should take a good rest, but the two insisted on coming, because they were holding back their strength to find out the truth about their frame-making, not to mention that Fubo's autopsy results showed that the old man was killed, and they were indignant if they didn't take revenge.

As soon as they got off the train, they felt a strange atmosphere, there were many thieves wandering around the train station, in fact, the train stations around the country are places where thieves often appear, after all, there is a large flow of people here, which is convenient for theft, but even so, Liu Honggen was also shocked by the number of thieves here, there are at least hundreds of thieves wandering back and forth in a train station, Liu Honggen thinks that these people are very likely to come for Luo Hunt, and they should have received the news that Luo Hunt may return to Huangpu in advance.

Don't look at the hundreds of eyes and ears arranged at the train station, but so many people still turn a blind eye to Luo Lie and the three of them, and no one can recognize their original identities.

That night, the three of them came to the Chaoyang Hotel in the public concession, which is not far from Yupu Wharf, which is the property of Luo Lie, who often came here in the past and personally participated in the reconstruction of Yupu Wharf, so they are very familiar with this area.

Luo Lie did not stay here, but went directly to the French Concession to visit the French consul Montpero.

When Monpero heard that Luo Hunt was visiting, he thought he had heard it wrong, and after confirming it again and again, he looked at the worship post again, and then he believed that Luo Lie, who had been missing for three years, had really returned. Montpero and Luo Lie had a relationship in the past, which first originated from his teacher-student relationship with Ye Qinghong, and later because the couple were doing business in Huangpu, Montpero gave some care, and of course got a lot of benefits from it. That time can be said to be mutually beneficial.

However, Montpero didn't expect that Ye Qinghong would master so much of his black material, and use these black materials to blackmail him, so that he had to come forward and release Cheng Yufei. Montpero thought that this matter had come to an end temporarily, but he didn't expect Luo Lie to come to the door again.

The first thought that Monpero had was that Luo Lie came to blackmail himself again, and he couldn't help but feel depressed in his heart, since Ye Qinghong took out the black material, it was impossible for them to be friends anymore, but Monpero didn't dare to offend the two of them, after all, the handle was in the hands of others, in case of tearing the skin, it would only be himself who was unlucky.

The more a person of Montpero's stature cherishes his feathers, and his reputation is more important than anything else.

Luo Lie has recovered his original appearance, and there is no need for him to hide anything when he comes to Huangpu, he has made full preparations for coming this time.

Monpero still maintained his graceful demeanor, he greeted him warmly, and took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said: "Mr. Luo, I haven't heard from you for a long time, where have you been in the past few years? ”

Luo Lie shook hands with him with a smile and said, "Thank you, Mr. Consul, for your concern, I just returned to Huangpu today, no, I came to visit your old friend as soon as possible." ”

Montpero laughed and said, "It's rare that you haven't forgotten me, why didn't Mrs. Zun come with you?"

Luo Lie said: "She went back to Europe. ”

"Oh?" Montpero became more and more shocked when he heard the news, what really worried him was the country, if Ye Qinghong made his black materials public, then he might not be able to do it, in fact, he didn't have much nostalgia for his current position, after all, he would be able to retire in another month, and because of this, he didn't want to lose his life.

Luo Lie said: "The sofa is good. ”

Only then did Montpero remember that he hadn't invited him to sit down, which was really rude, and he said apologetically: "I forgot to invite the guest to sit down because I was so happy, please sit down!"

After Luo Lie sat down, Montpero asked people to make a pot of French black tea.

Luo Lie came empty-handed this time, and he didn't need to give any gifts to people like Meng Peiluo, according to Ye Qinghong, not making his black material public had already given him a great favor.

Montpero crossed Erlang's legs, took a sip of black tea and said, "Mr. Luo, did you come to me today for something?"

Seeing that he asked so directly, Luo Lie also replied straight to the point: "Don't hide it from Mr. Consul, I did need your help in some things when I came to you. ”

Montpero said: "Mr. Luo, I am Mrs. Zun's teacher, and we are also friends, so I will definitely try my best to help in this relationship, but I have more than a month to return to China, and a new consul will soon take over my duties, so I may not be able to give you the help you want." ”

Luo Lie said: "Will Mr. Consul continue to engage in politics after returning to China?"

Monpero shook his head and said, "I'm tired of it, it's time for me to think about retirement and enjoy the blessings." ”

"We have a winery on the shores of Lake Leman. ”

Montpero said: "I went to be a guest, and I still think about it very intoxicatingly. ”

Luo Lie said: "Wouldn't Mr. Consul consider going there for permanent residence?"

Montpero laughed, "I'm so embarrassed to always bother you." ”

Luo Lie said: "I mean, Mr. Consul can be the owner of that winery. ”

Montpero was shocked in his heart, Luo Lie was bribing himself, this person's shot was really generous, and he even wanted to give a winery to himself, but Montpero quickly came to his senses, there is always a conspiracy for good things that fall from the sky, but after thinking about it, he has already had a lot of black material caught by Ye Qinghong, if they want to achieve their goal, they can completely threaten themselves, and they can't bribe.

Luo Lie said: "I can't stay in Huangpu for too long, and this time I came back mainly to think about something." ”

Montpero looked at Luo Hunt suspiciously.

Luo Lie said: "To tell you the truth, Qinghong and I are ready to move to North America, and we have decided to sell that winery." ”

Montpero said, "How long do you plan to stay in Huangpu?"

Luo Lie said: "Three months at most." ”

"For a month and a half, before the end of my term, I will do my best to keep you safe," Montpero said. ”

Luo Lie said: "Mr. Consul, can you give me the identity of an inspector general?"

Monpero nodded without hesitation.

Luo Lie smiled and stretched out his hand to Montpero, and the two shook hands and laughed knowingly.

At this time, Inspector Wang Jinmin came to ask for a meeting, and Montpero said: "It's just in time, I'll introduce you." ”

Wang Jinmin and Luo Lie have actually known each other for a long time, but in the past, Luo Lie was dealing more with Inspector Liu, Wang Jinmin was just a deputy of Inspector Liu, at that time Luo Lie rarely talked to him, and saw Luo Lie at the consul's house, and when he saw the scene of the two talking and laughing, Wang Jinmin immediately realized that Luo Lie, who had just returned, had found a backer, and in the French Concession, Montpero was a figure who said the same, although his term of office was about to expire, but the more he was in the end, the more he would use the power at hand to the extreme, both Chinese and foreign officialdom.

Meng Pero introduced Wang Jinmin, and Wang Jinmin hurriedly stepped forward to show goodwill: "Mr. Luo, we have known each other in the past, but we haven't seen each other in the past few years, I don't know where Mr. Luo went to make a fortune?"

Luo Lie said with a smile: "I like to adventure all over the world in the past three years, and I will not long return to China. ”

Wang Jinmin said: "Mr. Luo's life is really enviable. ”

Luo Lie said: "I came back this time mainly to deal with some business matters, and I have to rely on Inspector Wang to take care of me in the future." ”

Wang Jinmin said with a smile: "Wherever and wherever it is, it is my duty to protect the safety of the citizens of the concession. ”

Luo Lie said: "When I saw Inspector Wang, I remembered one thing, at the end of last year, my house in the concession was attacked and blown up, I wonder if Inspector Wang has eyebrows?"

When asked about this in front of Montpero, Wang Jinmin's face couldn't help but be embarrassed, and he coughed dryly: "I'm still investigating, many people died that day, but the deceased was burned beyond recognition, which is really a bit tricky." ”

Monpero said: "Your acting inspector is much worse than your predecessor in handling cases. ”

Wang Jinmin's face was even more unbearable.

Montpero said: "By the way, I forgot to introduce you to Mr. Luo's other identity, I decided to hire Mr. Luo as the chief inspector of the patrol house in the French Concession." ”
