Chapter 160: For the sake of their colleagues’ reputation, they must slowly look for Mike

The two of them finished all the snacks on the table. Old Wang asked them to leave first. After a while, he also left with the torn bag. Half an hour later, he appeared in a newspaper office.

Lao Wang’s external identity is a newspaper editor, and this newspaper is actually the organization’s base in Hong Kong Island.

"How was the conversation with them? Have these two young people been blinded by the bright lights and revelry here?"

asked Lao Cai, the general manager of the newspaper.

Others gathered around, wanting to know how the conversation turned out.

Old Wang didn't know what to say, so he put the bag on the table and unzipped it.

"What is this...Wow, Lao Wang, are you robbing a bank?"

Everyone was shocked by the amount of money in the bag. Their monthly salary was only around HK$1,000, which was considered good in Hong Kong Island. This bag of money must be at least HK$100,000, right?

"The money belongs to Li Rong and Luo Xinxin. They said they would hand it over to the organization. They also said that they would receive this much money every week in the future." Old Wang explained.

"Did they rob a bank?"

Everyone asked in unison.

Old Wang shook his head and said with a wry smile, "They won it in the casino."

He told them about Luo Xinxin's special abilities and the words these two people used to express their loyalty, and everyone's expressions became incredible.

"Is psychology so powerful? Isn't this the queen of gambling?"

"Xiao Luo is a walking trickster. If he didn't have real skills, he wouldn't be sent on this mission. And it was Xiao Luo who first discovered Mike."

Old Cai calmed down quickly. The organization had told him about Luo Xinxin's special abilities, but he hadn't expected that this girl was so capable. No wonder the organization was willing to take on the pressure and send Xiao Luo over.

"I will hand over the money. Li Rong and Luo Xinxin don't need to interfere. I'll help them if they run into any trouble."

Old Cai gave the order that the money was not a small amount and he had to hand it over as soon as possible to solve the country's urgent needs.

"What if these two people lose their determination and become addicted to gambling?" someone worriedly asked.

"No, our warriors are not easily worn down."

Old Cai has confidence in Li Rong. A steel warrior who has received rigorous training will not be easily eroded by the poisonous weeds of capitalism.

As for Luo Xinxin, who was good at walking, he really had no confidence, but now he could only take a gamble.

The two people who were worried about by everyone returned to the rental house after leaving the teahouse. They basically did not go out during the day and only took action at night.

"belch……"

Luo Xinxin burped. She had just eaten too much and couldn't eat lunch.

She yawned, went to the bathroom, changed into her nightgown, and went to bed.

Li Rong was not sleepy. He leaned on the recliner and read a novel. He had finished reading The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber and was now reading The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils. Luo Xinxin had introduced the novel to him and said that The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils was the best novel by Jin Yong.

He was very excited about it, and after watching The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, he immediately became interested in The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.

Ever since he knew Luo Xinxin had a space, he bought all the martial arts novels in the bookstores on Hong Kong Island and stored them in the space. Even if he returned to the inland, he would not have to worry about having no books to read.

"How long are we going to play here?"

Luo Xinxin hid in bed, unable to fall asleep for a while, so she picked up a gossip magazine to read.

"About two months. Mike is so elusive, it's not easy to find him."

Li Rong didn't even raise his head. His colleagues who had been looking for Mike before had not found him for a month. They definitely couldn't look for him too quickly.

"That's right. If we find him soon, those people who looked for Mike before will definitely be slapped in the face." Luo Xinxin agreed very much.

"Yes, for their faces, we'll have to look for at least two months."

Li Rong agreed deeply; that was exactly what he thought.

"Did you carry out missions like this before?" Luo Xinxin was very curious.

She had read the deeds of exemplary heroes of this era, all of whom were passionate about serving the country without any selfish motives. Li Rong's thoughts were very normal in later generations, but they were considered an anomaly now.

Li Rong glanced at her and said calmly, "The more a cow works, the faster it will die of exhaustion!"

He understood this principle at a very young age. Work must be done, and it must be done skillfully. If you work too slowly, people will dislike you. If you work too fast, people will suck your blood. Neither too fast nor too slow is just right.

Luo Xinxin gave him a thumbs up, and for the first time, they felt a sense of mutual appreciation.

She read a gossip magazine for a while and then fell asleep in a daze.

Then--

"Snap"

He kicked the quilt away and fell asleep with his legs spread out.

Li Rong frowned as he watched. He had never seen anyone who slept worse than Luo Xinxin. She would punch and kick even in her sleep. He didn't know how many times he had been kicked by this woman in these days.

He flipped through a few pages of the book, but couldn't calm down. He sighed helplessly, got up and covered himself with the quilt.

However, after he sat down and looked at it for a while, Luo Xinxin kicked it away again with a snap.

He tried to write five times in a row, but each time he was kicked away not long after sitting down. After struggling for half an hour, he didn't read a single word.

"Are you born in the Year of the Dog?"

Li Rong gritted his teeth and really didn't want to bother with this woman anymore, but her noise was making it impossible for him to read.

Luo Xinxin was sleeping soundly on the bed, while Li Rong was glaring at her with a bitter and resentful look beside her.

Finally, he simply lay on the bed and read a book, pressing the quilt under him. Luo Xinxin kicked it several times but failed to kick it away, and finally he felt at ease.

"No dog is as noisy as you."

Li Rong looked very proud, as if there was no one he couldn't control.

After reading for a while, he began to feel drowsy. Not long after, the two of them on the bed began to sleep in each other's arms, sleeping soundly.

It was dark and Li Rong woke up first. He glanced at the person in his arms. Although it was like this every week, his face still blushed. He carefully pushed the person away and went to the bathroom to wash up.

The sounds of beating and scolding coming from downstairs woke Luo Xinxin up.

"What happened again?" she asked dazedly.

"The couple across the street tried to escape, but were caught."

Li Rong glanced out the window with a calm tone.

Fa Ge and Lulu had a miserable week. The loan sharks kept an eye on them every day. They had to take customers from morning to night, but all the money they earned was taken away, leaving them only a little for living expenses.

The couple definitely couldn't stand such a high intensity of receiving customers, and running away was inevitable.

"Please, can you please have less customers? If we continue like this, we will really die."

Fa Ge kept kowtowing and begging for mercy. His face was beaten like a pig's head and he looked very miserable.

Lulu lay on the ground motionless.

"I don't care whether you live or die. If you owe money, you have to pay it back. If you don't have money, you can sell it. You dare to run away? Are you tired of living?"

A burly man punched and kicked Fa Ge, swearing at him.

Fa Ge curled up into a ball, holding his head, and allowed himself to be beaten, still shouting, "If you can lend me another 100,000, I'll definitely make a comeback this time. Seriously, I have inside information, and I can definitely pay it back with interest!"

"Do you think I'm a fool? With your miserable appearance, who would give you inside information? Pah..."

The big man didn't believe it at all and started beating him again.

Fa Ge lay on the ground, his voice getting smaller and smaller: "Really, what I heard at the racecourse must be correct. Give me 100,000, no... 50,000 will be enough..."

"Fuck... you..."

The big man didn't believe a word he said and raised his foot to teach him a lesson, but his shoe hit him sharply on the back of the head.

With a snap.

The big man fell to the ground without even a beat.
