Seven Evil Slips:

Kiyo fell asleep in a daze, and heard three soft beeps in the back of his head.

It's like when Aunt Hong called her to get up when she was lying in bed, she just knocked on the head of the bed three times in a tepid and soft manner.

Kiyo shrinks into the blanket, impatiently pulling the blanket over his head with one hand, and reaching out to touch it with the other.

Usually, she would grab Aunt Hong's wrist in a flattering manner, and plead under the covers, "Five minutes, Aunt Hong, just five minutes."

So...

Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, Luo Ren watched her hands touch the glass with a blank expression, what does it mean? What does this mean?

How does it feel...cool...

Kiyo's heart tightened, and he woke up instantly: she is not in her room, she is sleeping in the bar now!

She sat up immediately.

It was very dark in the bar, and there was still some time before dawn, and a shadow of a person appeared on the table, condescending.

Duk duk duk, the voice came again, Kiyo vaguely guessed who it was, and after hesitating for a while, he turned around.

Luo Ren supported the outer glass with one hand, rested his forehead on his arm, and held the mobile phone in the other hand. The screen of the mobile phone was flushed inward, and two words were typed on the screen.

Call?

Whoever wants to talk to you, smile as if nothing happened, as if it wasn't him who held the knife against her last night.

All of Kiyo's reactions were expected by Luo Ren, he was not in a hurry, he just held the phone like that until the light on the screen faded.

She should have answered the door, if she paid attention to what he said, if she also had doubts about Huo Zihong, if she could see that she didn't mean any harm from the incident of letting her go that night.

She should be able to answer the door.

After an unknown amount of time, he saw Kiyo walking towards the door.

***

The door was opened from the inside with a slit the size of a palm, and only half of Kiyo's face was exposed.

Luo Ren didn't move forward, and he understood the principle of haste makes waste. After the tension of the previous night, it is a very delicate matter to fix it now.

Kiyo held a steel fork in his hand, and he was holding it in his hand when he passed the dining table. The door opened at a tricky angle. She imagined that if Luo Ren insisted on breaking in, she would be able to throw herself up against the wall immediately. , Before Luo Ren could react, he sank down, and took advantage of the opportunity to insert the steel fork into the Fengchi point on the back of his neck.

No, this is too vicious, Fengchi point is one of the three most important points in the human body, in case he is beaten to death and disabled...

It's better to hit it, and tie it up after you're knocked out.

However, he didn't rush in. Strictly speaking, he spared his life last night.

There were many thoughts in Kiyo's mind, and finally he hesitated and said, "Then... I will decide the time and place."

***

The time was set at noon the next day, and he was only notified by text message half an hour in advance.

And the choice of this location was as uncreative as he thought.

The... noodle restaurant diagonally opposite the police station in the scenic area has street cameras on both sides, and it is meal time, so there are many people coming and going in the restaurant, including police officers.

When Luo Ren arrived, Kiyo was already inside, occupying a golden table. The space in the store is small, one table is next to another, Luo Ren had to work hard to squeeze in go.

Order first, two sets of beef noodles, pour vinegar and chilli sauce on the noodles, tear apart disposable chopsticks and rub the burrs, each busy in their own way, in the eyes of outsiders, they think they have known each other for a long time.

Kiyo raised his chopsticks first: "What are you talking about?"

Luo Ren said: "I have a good impression of you."

Kiyo paused when he mouthed his face, but Luo Ren stopped talking: "Eat first."

No, how can she eat? What does this nonsensical sentence mean? Why do you have a good impression of me?

Luo Ren really only ate noodles with all his heart, and he ate very fast. After eating, he wiped his mouth with a paper towel: "There is nothing to drink. What are you drinking? Green tea? Orange juice? Wait for me Take a look."

He got up and went out to buy water.

Kiyo couldn't swallow the food, and the chopsticks were stirring in the noodles, which seemed to make the noodles into lumps.

After a while, Luo Ren came back again and handed her a bottle of orange juice: "Don't think about it, I mean, you are a person with a decent basic character."

This is what he really said.

Counting it all together, he and Kiyo had dealt with each other several times. Kiyo had no experience, and sometimes he acted too hastily. In Luo Ren's view, it was harmless. After all, in the beginning, everyone was a blank sheet of paper, and no one was born. colorful.

He actually values ​​two points more.

One is that Mudai Kungfu is really good, and he noticed when fighting her that she basically didn't use harsh moves or bad moves. Knowing how to be compassionate and leave room for three points in a match is worthy of admiration.

Secondly, her personality is actually quite simple. She is proud when she is strong, frustrated when she is frustrated, she likes it or not, it is written on her face, and she cries when she is afraid. It is not tiring to deal with her. Don't laugh and keep secret, and don't know how many dirty tricks have been played under the skin.

And she is reasonable, at least she can use her brain to think about things. Last night was a temptation. If she jumped out in a rage and wanted to fight him to the death, there would be no need to "talk".

Kiyo was a little wary, he used a knife to ask her to say her last words, and then praised her character, what is it? A slap and a sweet date?

She couldn't hold her breath: "What are you going to talk about?"

"Talking about Huo Zihong."

Kiyo pushed the orange juice back to him, looking like he would never accept a needle or a needle: "No matter what, I will not betray Aunt Hong."

"If your Aunt Hong is really fine but people suspect you, you should do everything possible to find out the truth. If she really has a problem, just because of the kindness of her upbringing, do you want to help the evildoers?"

Kiyo was stunned for a while, and replied with a lack of confidence: "My red aunt is fine."

Even if Aunt Hong really has a problem, it's not as serious as helping the evildoer.

It was no longer the meal time, and the people who had finished their meal left one after another, leaving a clean place for them to talk.

Kiyo suddenly said: "I know you suspect that Aunt Hong is Li Yaqing, but no matter what, it is reasonable for Aunt Hong to be concerned about the Luoma Lake case, what about you? Why did you get involved? You are in Xiaoshanghe Didn’t you meet Li Tan?”

Luo Ren didn't expect that she would suddenly mention Xiao Shanghe and Li Tan, and his expression changed several times in an instant.

Kiyo had a panoramic view of everything: "You know who I am, that I was adopted by Aunt Hong, and that Aunt Hong has a great relationship with Luo Ma Lake, but what about you? I don't even know why you care so much about Luo Ma Lake." You don’t even know about this case, you can talk to me if you want, but let others tell the whole story and keep it hidden, is there such a good thing?”

It seems that his army is approaching, and Kiyo feels that his counterattack is really justified: "If you refuse to say..."

Before he finished speaking, a golden light flashed in front of his eyes. Luo Ren reached out and pulled the thin gold chain from his collar and threw it over. There is a gold picture frame pendant, and there is a shrunken photo in the picture frame.

Kiyo picked it up and looked at it. It was a young woman with long hair, her face was slightly sideways, her face was matte, and her outline was delicate and beautiful. On the back, she did not know what technique was used to engrave two characters: 仁婷.

"Girlfriend?"

"My uncle's daughter, Pin Ting, Luo Pin Ting."

***

My uncle is called Luo Wenmiao. He is a historian. He mainly focuses on the history of Liao, Xixia, and Song. A few years ago, he moved his family to Xiaoshanghe, Ningxia. It was the place where the Xixia Kingdom was entrenched at that time. Until now, there is a Xixia royal tomb near Yinchuan, which can be inspected on the spot at any time.

My aunt passed away very early, my uncle brought Pinting with me, and there was only Uncle Zheng by my side to help with chores. My uncle and I have a very good relationship, and I miss Pin Ting very much. Every once in a while, I will go to see them.

One night about two years ago, I suddenly received a call from Pin Ting. She was disturbed and told me in a choked voice that something was wrong with my uncle.

I couldn't tell clearly on the phone, but I felt that something was serious, so I rushed to Xiaoshanghe as soon as possible, but it was still too late. Pin Ting told me that my uncle had been missing for two days.

I comforted Pin Ting not to be in a hurry, and prepared to call the police to find someone. I also thought about entrusting some friends to help, but at this moment, my uncle came back again.

Ask him where he went, and he replied: Lok Ma Lake.

That was the first time I heard the name Luoma Lake. Looking at the map, it is located in the Hebei area and is not particularly famous. But my uncle often made academic visits to different places, so I didn't take it too seriously.

That night, I stayed at my uncle's house. I got up in the middle of the night and saw that the light in the study was still on, so I went in to persuade my uncle to go to bed early.

Uncle didn't seem to want to talk to me. He held up a magnifying glass and kept looking at a rubbing copy of Xixia script. When I tried to persuade him again, he suddenly raised his head.

***

Kiyo was fascinated gradually, when he heard this verse suddenly, he felt agitated, and stepped back unconsciously, the stool under him creaked.

Luo Ren looked at her: "Can you imagine the scene at that time? I was working at my desk almost obsessively, and then suddenly raised my head without warning, with a strange expression, as if I changed a different person in an instant."

Kiyo didn't know what to say: "Well, then?"

"Then, he said something to me."

Kiyo's back felt cold when he listened: "He... what did he say?"

"He said, Luo Ren, don't let me kill people."
