Two days later, Lucas came to pick Leo out of the hospital.Back home, everything is packed.

"Ding dong—" Someone rang the doorbell.

"I'll drive." Leo steered the wheelchair to the door.In the video is Kobayashi.Leo pressed the button to open the door.

"Boss, you are finally back. Hello." Kobayashi who came up put a bouquet of flowers into Leo's arms, and handed a handbag to Lucas who came over.

Lucas opened the bag and looked at it: "Ah, thank you, I was thinking about going shopping." After speaking, he carried it into the kitchen.

"What?" Leo turned his head and asked Kobayashi.

"Ribs and some seasoning for cooking meat." Xiao Lin pushed the wheelchair to the sofa and sat down.

"Thanks. How is everyone? How's the store?" Leo asked.

"It's all good." Xiao Lin glanced towards the kitchen, turned his head and secretly gestured OK to him, and Leo nodded.

"Everything is carried out according to the daily routine. I'm back now. If you have anything to do, you can come to me, or call me." Leo paused, and continued, "How did you go out for Christmas?"

"It's okay, I had a lot of fun all the way, but when I went to sea in Nice, I encountered a stormy weather, so I had to shorten the trip and came back early."

Lucas came out with two cups of hot drinks, one for Xiaolin, one for Leo, and a medicine box for Leo.

"Boss, then I'm going down. I ran up when I found time." Xiao Lin drank the juice in one gulp, put down his glass, and stood up.

"Yeah." Leo nodded.

Lucas sends Kobayashi out.Turning around, Leo had already taken the medicine.After taking the water glass, Lucas asked, "Want to take a lunch break?"

"I'm not sleepy right now. Let's bask in the sun."

"Okay." Lucas pushed Leo to the window and covered his legs with a blanket.Two people each have a book, enjoying the warm afternoon sun.

"Ding dong—" the doorbell rang.

Lucas put down his book, walked to the door and looked at it: "It's a courier." After changing his shoes, he went downstairs, and after a while, he came up with a package.Leo turned to look at him.

"The ordered canvas has been delivered." Lucas raised the package in his hand and walked upstairs.

Leo turned his eyes back to the book.The sun is getting a little drowsy.

a few days later.

"Shit! I didn't get it at all! How many times do you say it before you believe it!" Zoe walked back and forth impatiently, "Who did it? Make me a scapegoat. Could it be that person?"

"Boss, there is a warrant for Zoe on the dark web, saying that he stole two items from a certain shop, a sword and a Chinese painting. Well, the bounty is quite high. Hey, isn't this painting you want me to pay attention to?" the one from?"

Leo looked at the screenshot and frowned.Things are in trouble.

"Hmm. Looks like I have to ask for help." Leo tapped the armrest of the wheelchair with his right index finger.

Lucas has become very busy recently, often going out very early, sometimes returning at noon; sometimes going out in the afternoon and returning at night.Leo said that if he was busy, he didn't have to stay with him at home.Lucas just kissed his forehead, apologized, and still tried to stay by his side every day.This left Leo with less time alone, and sometimes even had to find excuses to distract Lucas.

On this day, Lucas went out early again.Leo sat by the living room window, trying to sort out the clues.Suddenly the phone vibrated.

"I got a message that someone was auctioning a replica of Napoleon I's sword on the dark web, and it was quickly bought. The transaction price was 2700 US dollars."

"Speak out your doubts, you will not report such information rashly."

"The first is the rarity, the second is the auction process, and the third is the transaction price. In a word: the designated buyer, there is a problem with the goods. It would be great if the screenshot is clearer." Seeing this, Leo dialed the phone.A few minutes later, he said: "Reverse trace the seller."

"Dad, when are you going back to China? Okay, I have a gift for you. It's just a high-end imitation. Well, okay, I'll send it right away, and I'll receive it when you get home. Love you." Sitting behind the desk , Lucas was playing with a gorgeous dagger in his hand, and the corner of his mouth curled up.

The sun is shining and it is a good weather for going out in winter.Lucas pushed Leo for a walk along the river. Both of them were sweating slightly before heading home.

"Looking at the recovery of my leg, I guess I will go back after the Spring Festival this year." Leo said to Lucas, looking up.

"During the Spring Festival, the Chinese district here is also very lively. Let's go to play then. When you recover, I will accompany you back, okay?" Lucas said with a smile and lowered his head.

"Then I have to say hello to my family first, I..." Leo caught a glimpse of someone standing in front of the house out of the corner of his eye, stopped talking, and Lucas also looked up.

"Lucas." The man looked a bit like Lucas, older.

"Matisse?" Lucas was surprised, and pushed Leo closer, "Why are you here?"

Matisse raised his eyebrows: "Come and see you, you seem to be having a good time." Instead, he greeted Leo kindly, "This is Leo, right? Hello, I'm brother Lucas, Matisse."

Leo reached out and shook his hand: "Hi, I'm Leo." He raised his head and said, "Lucas, come in and say."

One of the two helped Leo up the stairs, and the other carried the wheelchair upstairs.After helping Leo change his clothes, Lucas poured a glass of water for Matisse, and the two sat on the sofa.

"I went back to visit my parents on the weekend." Mattis spoke first.

"Hmm, how's Mommy?" Lucas sat across from him, calmly.

"It's okay. The gift you gave to your father is very unique." Matisse's eyes flashed with anger.

"Let's go upstairs to talk." Lucas turned to Leo and said, "You take a rest, I'll be down in a while."

Watching the two brothers go upstairs, Leo turned on his phone.

In the study, before sitting down, Matisse asked, "Does the theft of the clubhouse have something to do with you?"

"How is it possible? I was in Tina's gallery, talking to her about the joint art exhibition. Didn't Nathan report to you?" Lucas sat down on the sofa leisurely.

"How did that saber get into your hands?" Mathis was aggressive.

Lucas propped his head on his right hand: "I saw it on the second-hand goods trading website. I saw that thing looked familiar from a pile of things. I thought it was a high-quality imitation, so I contacted the other party to buy it."

"You think I'm easy to fool? Little boy, you haven't fought me since you were a child." Matisse stood in front of Lucas with his hands on his hips.

"Hehe, yeah, I'm not as smart as Bruce." Lucas leaned back on the back of the sofa, looking at his brother with a smile on his face.

Matisse was suddenly discouraged, and stretched out his hand to ruffle Lucas's hair: "No matter what, we are a family, don't cheat on brother again."

Lucas knocked off his hand: "As if I took advantage of you a lot."

"That Leo, what's his origin, have you found out, and live with him." Matisse was a little unhappy.

Lucas glared at him: "You don't care what friends I make, I'm not a kid anymore."

"You also know that you are not a child anymore, why are you still so impulsive? A while ago, you got yourself into the hospital and asked Nathan to wipe your ass."

Lucas' eyes were burning, he snorted angrily, and turned his head to look away.

"You'd better find out his details. After all, there are some things we can't bring to the table. If he finds out, it's not safe." Mathis said softly.

"I have a sense of proportion, and I don't think he approached me on purpose. Not many people know that I am your brother." Lucas stood up and looked Mathis squarely, "I won't hold you back, you Feel free to climb up."

Knowing that it would be useless to say more, Matisse patted Lucas on the shoulder: "Be careful, you can ask me for help at any time."

Lucas nodded: "You too."

The two went downstairs and saw Leo reading a book in the living room.Matisse greeted Leo and left.Watching his brother go away, Lucas went upstairs and met Leo's eyes: "My brother looks fierce, but he is actually very kind to me."

"I just thought you guys would fight. I'm envious of having an older brother." Leo said with a smile.

"I was bullied by my brother since I was a child, and I died miserably." Lucas went to the kitchen to cut an orange and brought it out, and handed it to Leo, "I just saw a relatively unfamiliar middle-aged man in your store greeting customers. .”

"That's my friend Lao Qi. I opened the store together with him. I will introduce you to me some other day. I don't have many friends here, and you basically know them all." Leo ate a slice of orange, and the juice flowed down the corner of his mouth. Cass leaned over to lick it clean, and kissed it by the way.Leo bit his tongue lightly, and Lucas suffered from the pain, deepening the kiss, which made Leo almost overwhelmed, and Lucas let him go with a smile.

"You." Leo smiled and shook his head, "We've known each other for so long, and we can't get enough of each other."

Lucas stretched out his finger: "I do the math, well, it's been five months, but it feels like I just met you."

"Don't you understand deeply?"

Lucas shook his head: "You still attract me deeply."

Leo smiled, but didn't answer.

"Ah, what's for lunch?" Lucas asked, picking up the empty plate.

"spaghetti?"

"Okay, I'll put less ketchup this time." Lucas walked towards the kitchen.

"It is reported that Feng Siyan has gone to France. Please track down his movements, play it by ear, arrest him and bring him to justice. You can seek assistance from the embassy."

"receive."

"Boss, the last time I tracked down the seller's IP address, it was found to be a convenience store. After checking the surveillance video, no suspicious person was found."

"Send me the video."

two hours later.

"Check the movements of this homeless man in those few days."

Two days later.

"This homeless man has disappeared. Ask people who are familiar with him. It is said that he made a small fortune before he disappeared. He seems to have found a temporary job as a courier. More information is still being investigated."

"receive."

Leo closed the phone, looked at the busy figure in the kitchen, and fell into deep thought.
