471, Old Man Li knows something

Li Jiu clenched his phone tightly, his eyes were dark.

At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door, and Qi Jingci knocked symbolically twice before pushing the door directly.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw her sitting on the bed with her mobile phone in her hand, and her expression looked a little gloomy.

"Still thinking about tonight?"

Li Jiu nodded with a deep groan.

Qi Jingci walked over, sat beside her, reached out and took the person into his arms, pressed his chin against the top of her hair, and said softly: "Don't be too sad." ”

Li Jiu was hugged by him like this, changed his posture slightly uncomfortably, wrapped around his waist from behind, and said in a muffled voice: "I'm not sad, I just can't figure it out." ”

There are too many unbelievable twists and turns, she can't figure it out for a while, and she drilled the tip of the horns, so she can't accept it.

Qi Jingci patted her on the back and said softly: "It's okay, I'll think about it with you." ”

Listening to his extraordinarily soft tone, Li Jiu raised his eyebrows slightly, raised his head in his arms, and was quite surprised, "You don't want to settle accounts with me?" ”

She was referring to the fact that she was hiding his MZboss identity.

Looking at Qi Jingci's expression before, he was sure to settle accounts after the autumn, but now his attitude has nothing to do with these four words.

Qi Jingci smiled, hooked her jaw with her fingers, and said, "My family Jiujiu is so sad, how can I bear to settle accounts." ”

This is true, and the sugar content is excessive.

Li Jiu curled his lips imperceptibly, but was quickly suppressed.

She sighed and said her thoughts to Qi Jingci, "I really didn't know who my biological father was since I was a child, I think Dean Liu's report is true." ”

Qi Jingci stroked the top of her hair, rubbed it comfortingly, and sighed, "So Jiujiu is indeed the granddaughter of Li Lao, is she happy?" ”

When Li Jiu confessed her plan to him, a moment of loneliness flashed in his eyes, and he thought that it was because she felt guilty that she had pretended to be the granddaughter of Old Man Li.

Now that she has really transformed herself into the daughter of the Li family, she is indeed worth being happy about.

But Li Jiu is not in the mood to think about this now.

She raised her eyes to look at Qi Jingci and asked, "You should know more about the Li family than I do, what do you know?" ”

The Qi family and the Li family are the two top wealthy families in Dijing, and although the two old men usually don't like each other, the relationship between the two families is very good.

So, he should know a lot of things.

Who knows, Qi Jingci shook his head, "I wasn't in Dijing at the time, so I don't know." ”

If it weren't for that, why would he bother to find Zhong Qing to investigate.

Li Jiu frowned: "Not in the imperial capital?" ”

"Hmm...... At that time, for some reason, I was taken back to my hometown to live for a few years. ”

In fact, he was taken away by Zhongqing and thrown into the deep mountains and old forests for training.

However, he can't tell Li Jiu the truth about these things at the moment.

"Then, what about Grandpa Qi?" Li Jiu continued to ask.

He doesn't know, Old Man Qi should always be clear, right?

"I just asked, and he said ......"

Li Jiu: "What do you say?" ”

Qi Jingci told her everything that Old Man Qi said on the phone.

"The old man also said that it was very strange that the bodies of you and Wen Wen were found, the robbers were nowhere to be found, and the police searched for them to no avail.

At that time, everyone, including Old Man Qi, was shocked, but they didn't expect Old Man Li to let those people go.

Li Shen had not yet come out of the grief of losing his wife and daughter at that time, and when he learned of Old Man Li's decision, he almost turned his face on the spot, which was also one of the reasons why he left home and traveled the world alone later.

For this reason, Old Man Qi even came to the door in person to ask what was going on, but Old Man Li didn't open his mouth anyway.

"You mean, there's a good chance that Grandpa knows?"

Qi Jingci nodded.

Li Jiu narrowed his eyes slightly, looking thoughtful.

In the gap between her contemplation, Qi Jingci found that the ends of her hair had not been dried, and the towel was hanging around her neck, and most of it was wet with dripping water droplets, which looked very uncomfortable.

Qi Jingci sighed, reached out and took off the towel, there was still Li Jiu's body temperature on it, and his fingers were burned suddenly.

Suddenly, there was no towel, and the back of his fair neck was exposed to the air, and Li Jiu was uncomfortable for a moment.

She turned her head and said, "What?" ”

Qi Jingci sat behind her sideways, wiped her hair gently, and his tone was a little blamed: "I didn't dry my hair, didn't I tell you that this is not good for your health?" ”

Li Jiu was thinking carefully about what he had just said, but his clear thoughts were suddenly interrupted, and he was speechless for a moment.

"Are you an old mother, are you so verbose?"

Qi Jingci smiled lightly: "I'm just verbose with you." ”

Li Jiu was speechless for a while, so he had to obediently bow his head and let him wipe his hair.

"You say, if grandpa really knows something, why did he cancel the investigation at that time?"

Li Jiu was puzzled: "Since you know the clues, why don't you continue to follow the vine?" ”

Old Man Li can have such a reputation and prestige today, and he is definitely not a soft-hearted person.

Behind her, Qi Jingci's deep voice sounded in her ears: "A very likely reason, he knows who did it, but he doesn't dare to continue to investigate." ”

And what can make Old Man Li jealous of this is definitely not an ordinary force.

Li Jiu's eyes flashed, and he agreed with his statement: "That's right, grandpa may be worried that if he continues to investigate, it will endanger his family and involve him more widely." ”

Wait!

A dark color crossed Li Jiu's eyes.

Won't it ...... Something to do with the Anomalous, right?

She remembered that her master once said that her mother was one of the strongest abilities in the association, and all the tasks she took on were almost 100% completed, and her talent and ability were particularly strong.

But because of this, she has also attracted a lot of enemies and fierce rivals.

It is very likely that the mother's enemies came to seek revenge and faked the robbers to kidnap them, and in the end, for some reason, they left the scene where they were burned to death, but in fact they secretly took their mother and her away.

When you think about it, it's easy to make sense.

However, there are still a few doubts.

What happened after she and her mother were taken away, and what did Old Man Li know.

The former Li Jiu was not worried, but the latter made her look a little solemn.

Although they usually hide their identities, there are still some special ordinary people who know their identities, and these ordinary people are usually celebrities with status and status, so that they can help the supernatural disguised as ordinary people in normal times.

They call these ordinary people, collaborators.

Collaborators make things easier for the Adepts in their areas of expertise, and the Adepts will reciprocate by helping them with small favors within their means.

Mutual benefit and seamless cooperation.

And Mr. Li happens to perfectly meet the conditions of the collaborator.
