Chapter 786 Coming towards him
A cold light flashed across Li Jinxing's eyes, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips: "Yesterday he also saw how quickly the police arrived, and the military also came to support us. So he knew the seriousness of the problem, so he ran away so quickly!"
"But I don't quite understand..." Nie Yao shook her head and said hesitantly, "He did open the door and help us fend off the gangsters outside for a while. And you saw those guys last night. They didn't look like they knew the owner of the perfume shop. In the end, that Il even shot through his door with a Desert Eagle. It's hard to tell they were accomplices!"
"I've been thinking about this!" Li Jinxing murmured, then said thoughtfully, "There are only two possibilities now. The owner of the perfume shop is hiding deeper. His shop has been on that street for many years. He is likely a spy for someone behind the scenes. The man who was poisoned while carrying a Desert Eagle was just a thug. They are of different levels!"
"Is there another possibility?" Nie Yao asked hurriedly.
"There's another possibility. They serve different masters and therefore don't care about each other's life or death. However, their goal is probably the same: they're all coming for me, or rather, for that ancient Egyptian artifact in my hand!"
As Li Jinxing finished speaking, Nie Yao couldn't help but tighten her grip on his hand, sighing softly, "Fortunately, you didn't drink his tea last night, otherwise... the consequences would be disastrous!"
Li Jinxing smiled faintly, held her hand, lowered his head and looked deep into her eyes, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Yaoyao, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been hit..."
He had often encountered plots against him by strange people since he was a child, so he was so vigilant. But Yaoyao was different. She had never had to worry about problems with her food or drinks before, but after being with him, she would have to be on guard in the future!
"Li Jinxing, you're not the one who should apologize!" Nie Yao smiled and patted the back of his hand, comforting him, "It was those criminals who did the bad things, not you!"
"It's my fault that you got implicated. If you hadn't followed me, you wouldn't have been targeted by them..." Li Jinxing sighed softly.
"I don't care!" Nie Yao shrugged and smiled nonchalantly, "To be honest, before I met you, I also encountered some tomb robbers who were eyeing cultural relics. I fought against them, so this is not the first time, and it won't be the last!"
She raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Besides, I'm fine now, right? It's just some sedative sleeping pills. I'll be fine once I metabolize them!"
Seeing Nie Yao's nonchalant smile, Li Jinxing felt his heart inexplicably at peace.
This is his fiancée, his life partner... No matter how many difficulties he encounters, he can always face the sun and not be afraid of the darkness!
Seeing Li Jinxing staring at her blankly, Nie Yao held his hand again and shook it, then reminded him with a smile: "Li Jinxing, didn't you say you would take me to the Cultural Relics Research Center? Let's go!"
Li Jinxing came back to his senses, nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, let's get in the car!"
After officer Ted communicated with the head of the Cultural Relics Committee, he heard that they were going to the Cultural Relics Research Center, so he hurriedly fulfilled his responsibility to protect them. He still drove the military vehicle in front and personally escorted them.
On the way to the research center, Nie Yao had already called her adoptive father in advance, and he agreed to let them come together.
