Chapter 5 Official X Thief

There are people coming and going on the street, bustling.

Lu Lin was tied away with a rope by Fu Jin and walking on the street was very eye-catching.People passing by all looked at him with strange eyes, many people pointed at him, and three or two people gathered together to discuss in a low voice.

"Looking at his sloppy appearance, he must not be a good person."

"Do you still need to say, can a good man be tied up like this? You see that young man is so handsome, he must be a good man who fights violence and protects the good."

"Why, you've taken a fancy to it."

"Don't talk nonsense, there isn't one." Although the woman said in denial, her eyes followed Fu Jin all the time.

Lu Lin looked around, not caring about other people's eyes and comments at all.On the contrary, Fu Jin frowned seeing the reactions of the people around him. He looked left and right and pulled Lu Lin to a remote alley, and untied the rope that bound his hands.

"Hey, my lord, are you going to let me go?" Seeing him untie himself, Lu Lin retracted his hand and shook it, stretched himself comfortably, his eyes were glancing at his surroundings, thinking about the escape route, "Then I'll go first."

"stop."

Before Lu Lin could move his legs, Fu Jin called to stop him.

"I let go of you because I don't want people on the street to look at you sideways, but you still have to go to the yamen and give me your hand." Fu Jin walked in front of him, holding the rope in one hand, lowered her head slightly to look at him, her tone was serious Said.

"Oh, just let me go, and I won't lose a piece of meat."

Lu Lin sighed, and stretched out a hand in resignation.He originally thought that Fu Jin wanted to tie him up in another way, but he didn't expect him to hold his hand suddenly.

"You, what are you doing!" Lu Lin frowned, staring at Fu Jin in horror, leaning back and trying to pull his hand out of Fu Jin's hand.

"It's too ostentatious in the street with you tied up." Fu Jin was serious, and pulled Lu Lin to go out.

"Then do you think you won't be ostentatious like this?" Lu Lin kicked on the wall with one foot, and grabbed Fu Jin with the other hand to hold his hand, so hard that his face started to turn red.

But Fu Jin remained motionless, standing there steadily, he retracted his hands, but Lu Lin didn't react to his movements, he was brought over by him when he was unstable, and fell into Fu Jin's arms all at once.

"Hey!" Realizing the ambiguous posture between himself and Lu Lin, Lu Lin hurriedly pushed him away, and patted his clothes in disgust.

"Let's go back and forth, but don't drag me, can you? You know that two big men are chasing each other on the street...Hey, don't just walk!"

In the middle of Lu Lin's speech, he was dragged by Fu Jin to the street.Seeing so many pedestrians coming and going around, Lu Linhuo felt shy for the first time at such a young age. The sleeves of both of them were tied up, unlike the short and wide sleeves that most people wear. Can cover one or two.Lu Lin covered his eyes with his hands, and looked around from between his fingers. He always felt that everyone around him was looking at him.He pulled the short brown skirt on his body to block the holding hands of the two of them. Seeing the appearance of Fu Jin beside him, he felt angry. He stared at his brain for a long time without realizing what was inside. , to come up with such a good idea!

Fu Jin's looks are already outstanding, and she is the kind that especially attracts little girls. After walking less than [-] meters, Lu Lin felt that he had been bumped into by people passing by him no less than ten times, and all of them were in a daze. Looking at Fu Jin, the admiration in his eyes almost overflowed.

Finally, being bumped by someone who was walking towards him again, Lu Lin couldn't bear it any longer. He shook Fu Jin and grabbed his hand tightly, and said angrily, "Let go, I won't go with you!"

Fu Jin was puzzled and didn't understand why he lost his temper suddenly, so he could only take his hand, press down on his arm, and asked, "Why?"

"If I continue walking with you, this half of my arm will be smashed." Lu Lin said with the anger in his heart suppressed.

"Are you injured?" Fu Jin said, and was about to check the injury.

"..." Seeing his reaction, Lu Lin didn't know what to say for a while, "Who is injured, my young master, I am very strong and strong!"

Fu Jin tilted her head and looked at Lu Lin with a puzzled expression.

"Okay, okay, don't look at me like that, go!" Seeing something wrong with his innocent and upright eyes, Lu Lin trembled, waved his hands and shook his head, urging him to go quickly.

Fu Jin didn't understand why he suddenly became angry, and watched him go first and was stunned for a moment before following.

"what are you doing?"

"Isn't your arm uncomfortable?"

"I'm not feeling well, I need you to hug me, let go!" Lu Lin roared angrily, pulled Fu Jin's hand from his arm, and walked forward angrily.

Pedestrians passing by on the side of the road saw the ambiguous behavior of the two of them, and they all had colorful expressions on their faces. The fat lady sitting next to him at the tea stand eating melon looked at him with disgust, and took a bite of the melon. shaking his head.

Lu Lin glared at Aunt Chigua, and shouted angrily: "What are you looking at, and I will plant you in the field, you big winter melon!"

"You, you, you brat!" The aunt who eats melons was so angry that she slapped the table, and was about to throw the melons in her hand.

"What an offence." Fu Jin stepped forward and used the sword in her hand to block the hands of the aunt who was about to throw melons, took out a piece of silver from her bosom and handed it to the aunt to make amends, then turned around and chased after Lu Lin who had gone far away.

"Hehehe, it's not in the way, it's not in the way." The aunt smiled, raised her head shyly and looked at Fu Jin affectionately, but when she looked up, Fu Jin was nowhere to be seen, "Hey, son..."

Aunt Chigua looked for Fu Jin's shadow everywhere, with a strong reluctance in her tone.

Lu Lin was very angry at first, but when he saw that Fu Jin was not by his side, he suddenly felt like the clouds cleared and his mood cleared up.

"I can escape without that guy!"

Lu Lin looked around to make sure that Fu Jin was really not by his side. He deliberately went to crowded places, hid in the crowd, and walked carefully along the way with his back bowed and his head lowered, for fear of being approached suddenly. Fu Jin found out.

At the next alley, just turn another corner, and you will arrive at the place where Lu Lin usually hides.This place is very hidden. From the outside, it looks like an ordinary winery. In fact, the real doorway is in the underground wine cellar. The underground wine cellar is like the center part of an ant nest, protruding from it. The veins are connected to all places, and all the places in the city that can be called by name can be walked from the cellar under the winery.

Lu Lin had made a plan in his heart, planning to hide away from Fu Jin for the next few days, and wait for the limelight to pass before coming out to continue his happy life.I didn't know that when I turned around and was about to walk into the alley, I bumped into someone, it was really hard to remember.

Although he was very unhappy when he was bumped, Lu Lin just kept his body bowed and his head lowered, raised his hands to his forehead to cover his face, and apologized.Seeing that the other party didn't speak, Lu Lin felt that he didn't care, so he changed the direction to avoid him and prepared to continue walking into the alley, but he was pulled back by the hand before the leg that had just been stretched out touched the ground.

"Where do you want to go?"

Sure enough, it was the voice that made Lu Lin tired of having emotions.

"I saw that the adults were just in love with beauty, so I thought I would go to the Yamen to surrender, but I didn't expect to go the wrong way." Lu Lin straightened his back, and lied without blushing.

"Are you mad at me?"

"My lord, don't say such things. I'm a man with a big heart, and I won't argue with you." Lu Lin patted him on the shoulder, put one hand behind his back, and said with far-reaching eyes looking at the sky.

"En." Fu Jin nodded, as if agreeing with Lu Lin's words, "This is for you, it's an apology."

"Ah?" Looking at the bunch of candied haws he handed over, Lu Lin pointed to the candied haws and asked, "Are you trying to coax a child?"

"At home, my mother did coax my little sister with candied haws."

Fu Jin answered honestly.

"Forget it, it's food after all, and it can't be wasted, so come on." Lu Lin took the candied haws, and ate the candied haws like a skewer.

"Well, let's go."

"Hey, why are you still holding me? I won't run away." Lu Lin said bluntly, watching Fu Jin grabbing his hand and looking at his face, repeatedly motioning him to let go, "You People just don’t trust others too much, my neighbor Lu has always said that it’s hard to follow, when did I tell a lie.”

"Well, I've been watching behind you just now."

"Cough, cough cough..." Lu Lin felt as if his face had been slapped, it really hurt!He spit out the hawthorn core stuck in his throat, patted his chest to breathe slowly, "Since you are right behind me, why didn't you come out earlier!"

"I want to know where you are fleeing to."

Hearing Fu Jin's words, Lu Lin suddenly panicked. The secret of the wine cellar is really important, and it would be bad if he found any clues.

"What is escape? I just want to drink a few sips of wine before entering the prison, but there is no other meaning! Hey, why are you laughing! Talk to you!"

There were still people coming and going on the street, noisy, Lu Lin's voice was overwhelmed by the noisy yelling and talking, and no one could hear what they said next.

"big big big……"

"Small! Small! Hehe, this is really small! It's really right to follow Brother Lu."

In the dark prison, there was an unpleasant smell, mixed with putrid acid gas and damp water vapor, which made people sick to their stomachs.But the prison, which has always been lifeless, is very lively at this time, with the sound of rolling dice and placing bets, it sounds like a gambling house.

"Xiao Lu, you should save some for me. The last bit of wine has gone into your stomach, so don't eat all the peanuts!" The fat jailer looked anxiously at his plate of fried peanuts and almost all went into it. Lu Lin's stomach hurts terribly.

"Go, go, didn't you lose it yourself?" The thin jailer said mercilessly, avoiding the fat jailer who came to him to beg for food.

"Oh, it's my bad luck to meet you two!" The fat jailer took a look at the peanuts, and walked out hard, muttering, "Hurry up and eat, you won't be able to eat it when the boss comes later!" alright."

"I know, I know, fat man, bring me in the towel I left by the door later!" The skinny jailer shouted loudly, but he didn't hear the fat jailer's response, and said strangely, "Why did you walk so far today? quick?"

The thin jailer poked his head and looked out, hesitated and said to Lu Lin, who was sitting on a chair with his legs crossed, throwing peanuts to eat: "Well, Brother Lu, I have to wrong you to stay in the prison any longer. I have to find out where I left my towel."

"It's easy to talk about." Lu Lin replied with a smile, walked back to the prison, and said very familiarly, "From now on, I will rely on the two elder brothers to take care of me."

"Where, Brother Lu, you are joking, hahaha." The thin jailer changed into a smile while talking, took the key from his waist, and prepared to lock the cell door.

"What are you doing!"

A sharp voice suddenly sounded, and the skinny jailer was so frightened that he dropped the keys in his hand to the ground, and stammered as the prison boss approached menacingly, "Boss, boss..."

"As a jailer, if you let a repeat offender go without permission, you know how to deal with it according to the law!"

"The little one is wrong, the little one is just... just..."

The skinny jailer was so frightened that he didn't know how to explain it. His face was already pale with fright, and cold sweat kept breaking out on his face. The fat jailer who was following behind the cell leader had already been shivering with fear, his face ashen.

"Cell chief, don't blame the wrong person. I tricked him into opening the door for me, and threatened him with his whole family." Lu Lin leaned against the cell door and said casually.

"You!" The prison chief picked up one side of the whip and was about to whip Lu Lin, but was suddenly stopped by a hand.

"My lord..." The prison chief swallowed the words he had just uttered, and took a look at the person who stopped him and retracted his whip.

"Everyone go down first."

"But... yes." Seeing the other party's resolute attitude, the cell boss had no choice but to agree, and walked out with the two guards.

"How are you doing these days?"

Seeing him, Lu Lin couldn't help pouring the remaining peanuts into his mouth, clapped his hands and said, "This is really a good question. I once heard someone asked how comfortable he was in prison."

"But I see you're having a good time."

"Cozy, I'm so comfortable to death."

Lu Lin gritted his teeth and said that he would get angry as soon as he saw Fu Jin's upright face, this pretentious wolf with a big tail.

Ever since he was imprisoned by Fu Jin that day, Xia Ling didn't expect that this kid really had himself, and found out about the winery by following the vines. It is the world's largest intelligence network dedicated to opposing the imperial court.Although Lu Lin is just an inconspicuous young man in there, all his sources of income come from the wine shop. Fu Jin not only cut off his source of income, but also put him in prison. Lu Lin wished he could beat him seven or eight times to relieve his anger.What he didn't even expect was that this seemingly silly person was actually a prince. Didn't it mean that the emperor's family had always been intriguing, and how he survived.

"Don't get angry with me anymore, I'm here to save you this time."

"Help me?" Lu Lin looked closely at his head.

"I'm not joking. Those who are involved in this case will be exiled at the lightest, and beheaded at worst. And you, beheaded according to the law."

"What, your punishment is too harsh!" The relaxed expression on Lu Lin's face was gone, he formed a circle with his hands, wishing he could strangle Fu Jin immediately.

"If you are willing to listen to me now, I can save you." Fu Jin grabbed his wrists, held his hands, and said solemnly.

"Then, I'll listen to you." Lu Lin looked at him, hesitated for a while, but agreed.Stretching out the head is a knife, retracting the head is also a knife, it is better to listen to him, maybe you can really escape, "What can you do?"

"Yeah." Fu Jin nodded, looked into Lu Lin's eyes seriously, "Marry me."

"..."

Lu Lin raised his leg and kicked Fu Jin's stomach, but he was easily subdued by him and covered his mouth with one hand.

"Listen to me, if I let you escape, the street will be full of your arrest warrants. By that time, you will have nowhere to hide and being caught will be added to your crime. After you marry me, can you be in my house?" You have a reasonable identity to go out, if you don't want to stay, I can send you away when you get married, what do you have to say now."

Fu Jin let go of her hand to let Lu Lin speak.

"You know, I'm a man."

"Don't worry that no one will recognize you."

"..." Lu Lin felt that Fu Jin's mind was really different from ordinary people, "You really want to save me, but you still have to use such a stupid way, you don't think you are trying to embarrass me in a different way?"

"The reason for being able to solve the case this time is indeed because of you. For the time being, what you have done can outweigh what you have done, and I know that you are not a bad person, so I saved you. There is no other reason." Fu Jin looked at Shang Yi His eyes were clear and serious, "Lu Lin, a gentleman is trustworthy, and righteousness does not give up."

"..."

Lu Lin finally agreed to Fu Jin's bad idea.

"Sister-in-law, I want to see my sister-in-law. Brother Wang, you lied to me and promised to let me see my sister-in-law!" The little girl was so angry that she pursed her mouth and looked like she was about to cry.

"Good boy, see you tomorrow, my sister-in-law is too tired today, she has already rested."

"Hmph, Brother Wang, if you lie to me again, I will ignore you!"

"Okay." Fu Jin promised with a smile, and ordered the servants to take her sister to the meeting room.

"Comfort your sister?" Lu Lin sat in front of the table, rolled up his sleeves to his arms, and stuffed cakes into his mouth one by one.

"En." Fu Jin nodded, closed the door, walked to the seat next to Lu Lin and sat down.

"This is your home, I won't fight for the bed with you anymore, I'll sleep on this table after dinner, don't mind."

"You can sleep in bed."

"No, you saved me after all, we will be brothers from now on, if you need my help, just tell me." Lu Lin stuffed the pastry into his mouth,

"drink wine?"

"It's just right, I'm thirsty." Lu Lin was not polite, took the wine glass handed over by Fu Jin, and drank it all in one gulp. "Continued Cup!"

"A glass is good, this wine is easy to get drunk."

"Haha, I haven't been drunk since I knew how to drink!" Lu Lin took the jug from Fu Jin's hand, leaned his neck and poured the wine into his mouth.

Fu Jin looked at him with his neck up, the wine overflowing from his mouth flowing down his neck, staying in the fossa of his collarbone like nostalgia, and then sliding down his chest when it was full. Although Lu Lin had a rough life on weekdays, this His skin was better than that of a woman's, and the clear water marks on his white chest could be seen through the open front of his clothes.

"Are you drunk?"

"How can I be drunk? I have to get up early tomorrow." Lu Lin put down the empty jug.

"So where do you want to go when you get up early?"

"Let's go..." Feeling dizzy, Lu Lin thumped his head, the things in front of him became blurred, and even Fu Jin's voice changed, as hazy as fog.

"Can't go."

"Why, didn't you agree?" Lu Lin poked his chest and stared, "You said that a gentleman is trustworthy, and righteousness does not give up..."

After Lu Lin finished speaking, he waved his hands and took a step back, but he staggered and almost fell down. Fortunately, Fu Jin was quick and grabbed Lu Lin's waist.

He helped Lu Lin's soft body to sit on the bed, untied his crooked hair crown and straightened his messy hair. He leaned closer to smell the scent of wine on Lu Lin's body, rubbed the cool tip of his nose against his warm earlobe, stared at With his closed eyes, his pupils were as deep as ink, and an inexplicable smile curled up at the corner of his mouth, and he whispered something in his ear:

"Lu Lin, but I never said that I am a gentleman."

In the room, only a pair of red candles were left on the side of the bed, and the shallow and pleasant laughter was like wind chimes dancing under the breeze, seemingly absent.

The next morning.

Lu Lin is used to getting up early, and he wakes up as soon as the morning light is faint, but he didn't realize the scene he saw as soon as he opened his eyes when it was mid-sun.

"I..." After hesitating dozens of times, Lu Lin still didn't know what to say, "Last night I... I drank too much, somehow..."

Seeing Fu Jin's expression of shock and pain but insisting on pretending to be indifferent after waking up, Lu Lin's feeling of guilt intensified. The flower of Gaoling who does not touch the world.

"I..." Lu Lin tried hard, but still didn't know what to say.

"You don't have to worry about it, I pretended you and I were both drunk last night, and nothing happened."

Fu Jin's voice was very dry, obviously speaking without any emotion, but when Lu Lin heard this, he felt as if his heart had been stabbed out.

The room was so quiet that people were flustered. Lu Lin couldn't control himself not to look at Fu Jin. His heart had never been so anxious. All kinds of thoughts burst out in his mind like an explosion, but he couldn't stop. Resolve to make a decision.

Fu Jin gathered the clothes on her body, sat up from the bed, and reached out to reach for the clothes on one shelf. Seeing this, Lu Lin hurried up to help him pass the clothes, sitting next to him didn't feel as disgusted as before.

"I will send someone to take you out of the city at night, after you leave..."

"I will be responsible for you." For some reason, when Lu Lin heard his voice, the words in his mouth seemed to be uncontrollable, and suddenly jumped out.

Lu Lin himself was startled at first, and wanted to slap himself on the mouth a few times, a feeling of regret immediately rose from the bottom of his heart.But Fu Jin didn't seem to hear what he said, just paused for a moment, and continued:

"After you leave, someone will meet you at the city gate. When the time comes, you will follow them. They will take you to a safe place and give you enough silver to ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life."

"What about you?" Lu Lin looked at him and couldn't help asking, "So many people know about your marriage, what should you do if I leave?"

"I have my own way."

"Fu Jin, if I say that I am willing to take on the responsibilities of last night, will you...would you dislike me?" Lu Lin glanced around, and was extremely uncomfortable when speaking.

"You..." Fu Jin paused for a while, then smiled self-deprecatingly, "You don't have to force it."

"No, no!" Seeing his appearance, Lu Lin immediately became anxious, and said again and again, "I won't force it!"

Fu Jin raised her head and stared at Lu Lin's face.

"I...Although I have nothing and I am a body to treat crimes, I am not a wolf-hearted person who does not know good people. If I did something wrong, I will naturally bear it."

"Do you understand what you mean?"

"Of course I understand."

"Then you know that this responsibility is to be carried for the rest of your life?"

"Of course I know."

"You don't regret it?"

"I've said it all, and you've heard it, so why regret it?"

Lu Lin was talking, but he didn't dare to look into Fu Jin's eyes, and his cheeks turned red.

"Since you said this, you have to remember it clearly." Fu Jin lowered her head, her loose hair blocked his face, making it difficult to see the joyful smile on his face.

"Ah... um." Lu Lin replied hesitantly, the red on his face spread to his ears and neck, his whole body looked like a cooked shrimp.

Fu Jin straightened up, stretched out his arms and hugged Lu Lin, and Lu Lin foolishly patted him on the back in response. He seemed to hear Fu Jin's low laughter, and for some reason, he wanted to laugh too.

One day a few years later, Lu Lin was lying on the bed with sore body, and Fu Jin was stroking his head and smoothing his hair. He still couldn't figure out how he could do that

He fell into the trap of this old fox so easily, causing himself to be tortured by him every night for so many years, obviously he is not stupid!
