Out of such thoughts, Patuo obediently stayed in the nursing home.

And after Lie found a remote room to put the suitcase, he found all the adults in the nursing home - including Patuo and Wei Wei.

Except for Qian Jie who was forcibly pulled over by Lie Ban, the others followed voluntarily. They looked at each other along the way and could see the same curiosity in each other's eyes.

After all, this was the first time that Lie gathered them all together with a serious face, even for a thousand eons, as if there was something important to announce in front of everyone.

Of course, Aponia, who knows the most and understands Lie the most, is not only curious, but also a little uneasy. In her opinion, such an abnormal behavior of Lie already indicates that some unusual things are about to happen.

Moreover, looking at his sad and joyful expression, but one can feel a trace of heaviness from it, what is about to happen is obviously not a good thing.

--what is going on?How did it become like this after going out?

Involuntarily and inexplicably, Aponia felt a little restless in her heart.

Then, her bad premonition came true.

In the next second, Lie announced in front of everyone, without preparation: "I found the location of the Saotome Research Institute."

Chapter 110 Seven: The Best Man in the Nursing Home

Without any foreshadowing, and without any prior psychological presupposition for everyone, Lie just dropped the bombshell abruptly, abruptly, and straight to the point, regardless of whether everyone took it or not.

The scene suddenly fell into dead silence.

Wei Wei and Alponia, who knew the inside story, fell into a daze on the spot like a bolt from the blue, and couldn't recover.

As for Patuo and Qianjie, they don't understand what the "Saotome Research Institute" means. At least Patuo knows that this is the place where Lie will set foot tomorrow, but Qianjie really doesn't know anything about it. He was confused and was waiting for Lie to explain to him.

——What are you talking about?

Although there is a mask separating him, there is a clear meaning in his gaze towards Lie.

But before Lie organized his language to explain one or two things for Qianjie, Aponiya and Weiwei suddenly came back to their senses. They stared at Lie excitedly, and asked loudly in unison: "Is it really that Saotome Research Institute?" Could it be just a coincidence of the same name?"

Faced with the disbelief of the two, Lie shook his head: "There is nothing wrong with it, there is only one Saotome Research Institute on this island, and I made a special trip to find them to confirm that it is indeed the same The one that the 'Gate Line' hooks up."

"Wait...they?"

Wei Wei keenly caught the key words in the words, and couldn't help frowning and asked: "What's going on?"

Lie patiently said to her: "Wilwei, don't worry, just listen to me slowly..."

Then, he explained everything that happened today, including the 'deal' he reached with Li Lin, in detail. The huge flow of information shocked everyone's minds, and immediately triggered another round of silence.

Although Patuo participated in the whole process and knew what happened today, she still stopped at a superficial understanding. She didn't know what the "Gate Line" meant, and she didn't know what amazing secrets were buried in the Saotome Research Institute...

Therefore, after seeing the dignified and solemn expressions of Weiwei and Aponia, Patuo felt puzzled instead. She pulled the corner of Lalie's clothes a little uneasy, and asked in a soft voice: "Boss Lie , what happened to Weiwei and Aponia?"

Lie replied truthfully: "Because they know what the simultaneous appearance of the Saotome Institute and the 'Gate Line' means, it is only natural for them to feel hesitant."

Pa Duo shook his head in confusion and said, "Boss Lie, I still don't quite understand..."

Lie subconsciously raised his hand and rubbed it on Paduo's small head for a moment, with an inexplicable look in his eyes, he said softly: "It's okay if I don't know... This matter has nothing to do with Paduo, Paduo There's no need to involve yourself."

Patuo first squinted her eyes and rubbed Lie's palm enjoying herself, but soon she was keenly aware of something, her face was no longer relaxed and carefree, and she asked with a heavy heart: "But this has nothing to do with Boss Lie?" relationship, right?"

Lie readily admitted in front of her: "Yes, this is the 'fate' I have to face - the curse named 'Gate Line', destined to haunt me for the rest of my life, no matter what I want, it It will follow me like a dog's skin plaster, even at the end of life, it will still not let me go."

Although Pa Duo still couldn't understand, she could feel an extremely heavy feeling through her strong words and tone. The suffocating sense of oppression made her instantly realize her own insignificance and powerlessness, and she couldn't help but wonder: "How could that be?" , this is too cruel... This is the first time I've heard Boss Lie tell me this..."

Lie sighed: "Because even if you say it, it won't change anything... I haven't met it before, but now I have met it, then the only way to face it is to face it, that's all."

Pa Duo never thought that the god-like and invincible Lie would show such a helpless expression one day, she suddenly felt a little sore in her nose, tears accumulated in her eyes involuntarily, and she spoke with a hint of crying: "I'm sorry, Boss Lie, I'm too weak, I can't help you with anything..."

Lie reassured and said: "It's okay, Patuo doesn't have to blame himself, I never thought of involving Patuo in the first place - you just pretend nothing happened, when this matter is over, everything will be as usual, if there is any danger during the period, You can come to the nursing home to seek refuge, after all, there will be a thousand calamities if I am gone..."

"Hey."

Qian Jie suddenly interrupted the conversation between Lie and Patuo with a deep voice. His patience seemed to have reached its limit. He stepped forward in three steps at a time, grabbed Lie's collar, and looked down at him condescendingly. , asked suspiciously: "What the hell are you doing? Give me an explanation!"

Lie was not angry at all, he let Qian Jie grab his collar and shake it a few times, he whispered: "Sorry, Qian Jie..."

Qian Jie suddenly yelled back: "I don't need your apology! Take it back! Then explain it to me!"

Lie said softly: "I hope that during the time I'm away, Qianjie can temporarily protect everyone in the sanitarium for me—please."

Qian Jie was trembling with anger, and the voice of gnashing teeth seemed to be squeezed out from the bottom of his throat: "Huh? What is this? You quit by yourself, and then you want to drag me into the water? Are you kidding, I'm going to throw up !"

Lie shook his head slightly, his tone still as calm as water: "No, I never thought about leaving the nursing home—but I have to face 'fate' in the end, I can't guarantee what will happen after entering the big hole tomorrow, so I must Prepare in advance."

Qian Jie replied viciously: "And then? Your so-called preparation is to pull everyone over like now, and then sell it like Tuogu? When did you become so weak!? Ah??? "

Looking at Qianjie who was so aggressive that he almost wanted Lie Ti's feet off the ground, Aponiya raised his brows and said dissatisfiedly: "Qianjie..."

Before Aponia could finish speaking, Qian Jie unceremoniously turned around and interrupted her: "Aponia, shut up! I'm not talking to you!"

Lie still softly comforted Qianjie's emotions: "Qianjie, I know you are worried about me, but this is just in case... I promised Aponia, I will overcome this damned 'fate' And return to everyone intact, I will not break my promise."

"But after all, I only have one, and the 'Gate Line' will affect the whole body. I am afraid that there will be accidents at that time, and everyone in the nursing home will be involved in danger, and I dare not say that I can catch up immediately I came back to save the scene, so I want to ask Qian Jie to take care of me for a while... Is that okay? As long as it can be delayed until I come back, it will be enough, and I will finish the matter as soon as possible."

Listening to Lie's sincere request and explanation, Qian Jie gradually lost his temper, he hesitated and said, "...Why me?"

Lie replied truthfully without hesitation: "Because in this matter, the only person I can rely on and trust is Qianjie you!"

"!!!"

Qian Jie didn't seem to expect that Lie would say that, he was taken aback on the spot, and subconsciously let go of Lie's collar.

After regaining his senses, he suppressed the change in his heart and silently looked at Lie's face and eyes, but he could only see a piece of sincerity and hope from above——as he said, he seemed to really regard himself as a heart-to-heart man of.

--ha?What is this...

After a long time, Qian Jie stretched out his clenched hands, and then exhaled a foul breath. He suddenly felt a little unbearable with strong eyes and words, turned around and walked out the door. Before leaving, he left a cold sentence:

"...Before you come back, I will protect everything here for you, but you'd better remember your promise and come back unharmed as soon as possible——I'm not your nanny."

Chapter 110: Brother Jie, My Tsundere Good Man (

After digesting the huge amount of information, Wei Wei looked at the direction of Qian Jie's departure with a strange expression, and couldn't help leaning towards Lie's side and asked, "Is he... Tsundere?"

It was the first time Lie heard this adjective, he tilted his head and asked in puzzlement, "Tsundere?"

Wei Wei was taken aback for a moment, and then explained: "Ah... it means not being frank."

Lie understood now, and nodded approvingly: "Indeed, Qianjie is good at everything, but he is not frank enough, and his words are a bit aggressive."

——That's what Mr. Hero thinks, if it were me, I would definitely not get along with him.

Weiwei smiled wryly in her heart, her perception of Qianjie had never been very good, just now she saw this guy rushing forward and almost pulled Mr. Hero off the ground, and her evaluation of him fell to the bottom... ...But to her surprise, she didn't expect Qian Jie to agree so readily in the end. She originally thought that he would reject Mr. Hero's request with a vicious voice, and then left the scene angrily.

——Well, although he left the stage in the end, it seems that the word 'shy' is more appropriate to describe it than angry.

——I really didn't expect that the perverse and violent masked man would have such a soft side.

Wei Wei can only attribute it to Lie's outstanding personality charm, which can even affect such a difficult person.

——However, now is obviously not the time to lament this.

With this in mind, Wei Wei put aside the unnecessary miscellaneous thoughts, and returned to the topic and said: "Mr. Hero, I just heard from you that you have already agreed to the 'deal' proposed by that group of people, and you plan to save their lives tomorrow. ?"

Lie nodded and admitted, pointing to the six suitcases piled up like a hill on the table and said: "Yes, they are very generous, these are the deposits they gave, and they said that they will prepare an additional payment afterwards— — This withdrawal will be discussed later, just what they are giving now is enough to solve the financial problems of the nursing home."

After all, he opened several of the suitcases in front of everyone, revealing the gold bars, banknotes and unknown crystals stuffed inside.

Wei Wei took a few glances and exclaimed: "Wow, are they really just mere mercenaries? Are they so generous?"

Lie noticed that Wei Wei looked at the unknown crystal with some enthusiasm, so he pointed to the crystal and asked, "Wei Wei, do you know this thing?"

Wei Wei swallowed her saliva, then retracted her gaze, nodded and said: "Well, I do recognize it... Simply put, this is a very rare and valuable material, and it can even be regarded as a material that is more precious than gold among us. equivalent."

After hearing Weiwei's explanation, a flash of understanding flashed in Lie's golden pupils, "That's it, why don't you take more back? I think you seem to like this."

"real……"

Weiwei's eyes lit up instantly, and she almost blurted out the sentence "Is it really possible?" Fortunately, she stopped the car just in time after uttering the first word, and quickly changed her words: "How can this work? This is Mr. Hero's As for the reward, I didn’t contribute much, how could I have the nerve to go whoring for nothing?”

Lie replied naturally: "After all, Weiwei has helped us so much. In the past, it was fine if we didn't have money. Now that we have money, we should naturally pay for Weiwei."

Weiwei still shook her head: "I said it was just mutual help among friends, and no money was charged."

The stupid hair on Lie's head curled up, and he tilted his head slightly and asked back: "But this should also be regarded as mutual help between friends? You want these things, I happen to have a lot, and even if I don't have them, the rest The belongings are enough to support the financial consumption of the sanatorium, so even if all these crystals are given to Weiwei, it will not be a problem."

"This……"

After hearing this extremely tempting proposal, Wei Wei hesitated for a moment, but in the end she couldn't pass the moral barrier, and declined politely: "Mr. Hero, thank you for your generosity, I appreciate your kindness."

Lie didn't force it, and responded casually: "En."

Aponia, who had been silent since just now, seemed to have finally come to her senses. She glanced at these treasures that even Wei Wei was amazed at with a complicated expression. They could effectively solve the financial problems of the nursing home, but her face But there is not much joy...

In the next second, she clasped her hands together and said in a deep voice, "Did Lie agree to this dangerous deal for the sake of the nursing home?"

After thinking for a while, Lie replied: "Not entirely. On the one hand, it is indeed for money, and on the other hand, it is because I want to understand my own origin, not to mention things like 'fate', which cannot be avoided after all." past-"

He patiently continued to explain: "Even if I don't go tomorrow, they will still be escorted into the large cavity underground of the research institute for investigation. If it is really as dangerous as they say, there may even be remnants of the 'Gate Line' If you let this group of people mess around, it will also cause big problems, and it may even affect the entire Twilight Street. It's better for me to take the initiative to participate in it. Once there is any sign of danger, I can pinch it at the first time. Exterminate, and control the loss to a minimum."

Weiwei suddenly remembered something, and said repeatedly: "That's right! That's what I want to ask! Mr. Hero, do you know who is behind the gang who forced those mercenaries into the big cave for investigation? ?”

However, Lie's answer made her feel a little disappointed: "I don't know about this, I asked them, and they said that on the surface, they were sent by the military, but they immediately added that this group of people The origin is mysterious, the power in their hands does not seem to be approved by the military, and their style of work is also very different from the military...it seems very unscrupulous and reckless..."

After that, he turned to Wei Wei: "By the way, Wei Wei, why are you asking this?"

Wei Wei replied honestly: "I suspect that this group of people is related to the ghost we are investigating."

Hearing this, Lie pondered and said: "Is that so...then I'll arrest their leader tomorrow and let you confront him face to face?"

Wei Wei was stunned for a moment: "Eh!? Is there such an operation?"

Lie nodded calmly: "Well, after all, they only want to survive, and they didn't say how to treat this group of people-then naturally they can do what I want."

Wei Wei bowed her head to Lie: "Then please Mr. Hero... By the way, there is one more thing, Mr. Hero, can you tell me the location of the Saotome Research Institute?"

For Weiwei's request, Lie refused uncharacteristically: "It's not difficult, but I think it's not too late to take you there after all the dust settles, after all, a group of people will carry heavy firepower to go deep into the research institute tomorrow." The big void below has been explored—Vale doesn’t need to confront them head-on, just leave everything to me.”

"Well, it makes sense, then I will wait for the good news of Mr. Hero."

Chapter 110 Nine: Alicia, the mission must be accomplished!

"Well, it makes sense, then I will wait for the good news of Mr. Hero."

Hearing what Lie said, Wei Wei immediately gave up the idea of ​​going to the Saotome Research Institute alone to find out - she doesn't have Lie's powerful strength by her side, if she ran into this group of people on the way, wouldn't she be giving her head for nothing? ?

Then Weiwei asked Lie a few more questions, and Lie answered them one by one. After getting the information she wanted, Weiwei reluctantly bid farewell to Lie and the others before dinner on the grounds that she would go back to discuss countermeasures with Ellie and go.

—Damn it!How could I miss the dinner cooked by Mr. Hero himself!Hi, my wife is so angry!

Even though she felt extremely resentful about this in her heart, Wei Wei could only wrong herself for the sake of the overall situation - who told her not to bring a contact terminal when she went out today?

So, after Wei Wei left, only Patuo, Lie and Aponia were left on the scene.

"..."

An atmosphere of silence instantly enveloped the audience, but no one said anything to break the strange tranquility, as if everyone didn't know what else to say.

——It's a little embarrassing.

Just when Patuo was hesitating whether to say a few words to liven up the atmosphere, she suddenly noticed Aponia's focused eyes, and only Lie was reflected in those beautiful sky-blue eyes. He folded his palms together, his brows were furrowed, his face was full of worry, his lips were constantly moving, and he seemed hesitant to speak.

——Is there anything Miss Aponia wants to say to Boss Lie?

Thinking of this, Patuo subconsciously looked at Lie again.

Because Aponia's eyes were too direct and undisguised, Lie noticed it early, but he didn't know what Aponia wanted to ask, so he waited quietly for Aponia to speak out, but he didn't expect The other party seemed to be caught in self-entanglement, and he didn't make a sound for a long time, but just stared at him.

—What's the matter, Aponia?

Lie couldn't help frowning in thought.

It is true that the authorities are obsessed with the onlookers, Patuo’s eyes wandered back and forth between Lie and Aponia for a moment, and suddenly he understood the atmosphere of the scene, and suddenly realized that he tapped his palm—the co-author turned out to be Sister Aponia, who was a bit sloppy. I wanted to talk to Boss Lie, but since I was there, I had no choice but to just watch...

——Hey, it would have been better to tell me no earlier, and I don't care, do you need to stare here for so long?

Thinking of this, Patuo took the initiative to find a reason to escape: "Boss Lie, if I have no other orders, then I will leave first? After all, the cats are still waiting for me to go back and feed them..."

Seeing that Aponiya hadn't opened his mouth for a long time, Lie originally planned to ask proactively, but when he heard Pa Duo's words suddenly, he couldn't help being startled for a moment, and subconsciously asked to stay: "Why don't you stay and have a light meal before leaving?"

Pa Duo waved his hand and refused: "No, no, I haven't finished eating the dry goods that Boss Lie gave me last time, I'd better go back and eat with the cats, so as not to waste Boss Lie's heart by leaving it for too long, and I've been a little neglected to accompany them recently..."

Seeing that Pado has made up his mind to go, and he does not insist on staying, he nodded to Pado, and finally told him again: "Then I won't keep Pado, but, Pado must remember, I will leave tomorrow. Going to the Great Hollow for a walk, I have a hunch that something big will happen, so if Patuo is in danger, remember to come to the nursing home to seek shelter, Qianjie promised me that he will protect me before I return All of this."

Pa Duo's heart warmed up, and a bright smile bloomed on her face. She patted her breasts that had just taken shape and assured her: "Boss Lie, don't worry, I cherish my life the most. If there is any danger, I will definitely kill you." Run away at the first time, after all, survival is the most important thing."
