Gu Nianzhi was nervous when she heard that Reinitz was going to be brought over. She asked Huo Shaoheng hesitantly, "Alex, what identity will you use to meet him?"
Huo Shaoheng hadn't used his real identity in front of Reinitz ever since he arrived.
Huo Shaoheng thought about it for a moment, "… This time, it has something to do with him, so I might as well use my real identity."
"It has something to do with him?" Gu Nianzhi was shocked, "He used to work for that foundation for a few years, but he said he was there to look for my father's manuscripts and letters, as well as the whereabouts of the data. How would these clinics have anything to do with him? "
Huo Shaoheng glanced at her and smiled, "Don't worry, you'll find out in a bit."
Gu Nianzhi relaxed when she saw Huo Shaoheng's confidence. She returned to her room to wash off her makeup and change into a simple T-shirt and short skirt.
He Zhichu met her at the staircase and asked casually, "Don't you think Huo Shao seems to know more about this?"
Gu Nianzhi nodded and replied without hesitation, "What does Huo Shao do? It's only natural that he knows more than us. "
If Huo Shao knew less than them, then there was something wrong with his job.
Although Gu Nianzhi was already very relieved about Huo Shaoheng's feelings, she was even more relieved about Huo Shaoheng's job.
She might suspect that Huo Shaoheng sometimes didn't care enough about her and didn't take her seriously, but she would never doubt the importance Huo Shaoheng attached to his job.
Huo Shaoheng happened to be walking around the corner with an ultra-thin laptop. A faint smile flashed across his eyes when he heard Gu Nianzhi's words.
"Nianzhi, Professor He, this way." Huo Shaoheng pushed open the door to the study.
His subordinates from the Special Operations Forces had already thoroughly checked the place. They had eliminated pinhole cameras, invisible recording devices, and all kinds of monitoring devices. They had also set up anti-monitoring devices to make the entire study as watertight as an iron bucket.
Huo Shaoheng would only feel at ease using his real identity in a place like this.
Gu Nianzhi followed He Zhichu to the study.
Although it was broad daylight, the curtains in the study were drawn.
Once the soundproof and light-blocking curtains were drawn, the entire room would be dark, so the ceiling lights were turned on.
The ceiling lamp in the study room was a built-in LED tube, which made the study room as bright as day.
On the east wall of the study hung an oversized curved TV that took up almost half the wall.
The curved screen TV was connected to the computer. Huo Shaoheng connected the laptop he had brought over to the TV and gestured to Gu Nianzhi and He Zhichu. "Sit."
"This is my study." He Zhichu frowned and corrected Huo Shaoheng. He turned to Gu Nianzhi and said, "Sit."
Gu Nianzhi, "…"
She and He Zhichu sat in two medieval style carved chairs in front of the desk.
Not long after, Reinitz was brought in blindfolded.
Huo Shaoheng waved his hand to dismiss the man. "Close the door."
The man saluted Huo Shaoheng and turned to leave. He closed the door and stood guard at the door.
Huo Shaoheng said to He Zhichu, "Professor He, can I trouble you to remove the bandage on Reinitz's face?"
Gu Nianzhi was worried that He Zhichu wouldn't listen to Huo Shaoheng's orders, so she quickly said, "I'll do it."
She stood up, and He Zhichu pulled her back. "Sit down. I'll do it."
He walked over to Reinitz with a cold expression and removed the bandage covering his eyes.
Reinitz rubbed his eyes and took a while to adjust to the light in the room.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at them one by one.
Because he had heard Huo Shaoheng's voice first, Reinitz still didn't believe it.
Shouldn't he be leading a team to participate in the International Special Forces Competition in another country?!
How did he appear in this country?!
It wasn't until the bandage covering his eyes was removed that Reinitz saw Huo Shaoheng's impeccably handsome face with his own eyes. Only then did he believe that not only him, but the entire world had been fooled by this man …
Although he was very unconvinced, he didn't show it on his face at all.
It was as if he didn't see Huo Shaoheng at all. His gaze swept past his face and landed on Gu Nianzhi, who was sitting diagonally in front of Huo Shaoheng.
Gu Nianzhi wore a fitted, simple navy blue cotton T-shirt and a low-waisted blue and white floral skirt.
Navy blue really suited her color very well. It complemented her skin as white as snow and her features were exquisite and beautiful.
Her eyes were clearly black and white. Because the white was too white and the black was too dark, there was a faint blue tint in her eyes.
Reinitz smiled at her and said gently, "Cereus, I haven't seen you for a day and you've become even more beautiful."
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
"Director Reinitz, you flatter me." Huo Shaoheng acted as if Reinitz was praising him and not Gu Nianzhi.
He sat in the high-back chair behind the desk and clasped his hands on the desk in front of him. He smiled and stretched out his hand. "Please sit."
He was pointing at a single sofa in the corner of the study.
Reinitz was still shackled, so it wasn't convenient for him to move.
He glanced at the single sofa in the corner, then looked at where Gu Nianzhi was sitting. He smiled and said, "No need, I'll sit over there." As he spoke, he walked over to Gu Nianzhi and crossed his legs to sit on the floor next to her feet.
The floor was covered with a thick Persian carpet with a simple geometric pattern. It was relaxing to look at.
Huo Shaoheng didn't mind. He Zhichu was sitting next to Gu Nianzhi anyway. If Reinitz dared to make a move, He Zhichu would shoot him …
As expected, He Zhichu didn't even look up. He said coldly, "Hurry up and start. I still have to rest after you finish."
Huo Shaoheng nodded and played the footage from the pinhole camera on the computer.
Because the computer was connected to the curved TV on the wall, the video was also played on the curved TV.
Compared to Huo Shaoheng's ultra-thin laptop, the large curved TV on the wall was, of course, much clearer.
Gu Nianzhi explained to Reinitz, "This is one of the four clinics my father mentioned. We went to two today. One is the Dass Clinic, which receives the most aid from the foundation, and the other is the largest Batti Clinic. "
Reinitz didn't know what these people were going to do, but when he heard that they went to two of the four clinics, he immediately perked up.
If he hadn't been caught by the two men in front of him, he would probably be in disguise right now to go to these clinics to find out information.
The curved TV on the wall began to play what Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng saw in the two clinics that morning.
The video didn't last long, so Reinitz was confused. He asked in confusion, "That's it? Why didn't you continue asking? "
Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Didn't Asians like this saying?
Was it encouraging others to enter the tiger's den and catch the tiger cub for themselves?
Reinitz, who had only learned Mandarin for half a year, felt that it was too damn difficult to learn!
Huo Shaoheng paused the video with the mouse and switched to another image.
The image showed a folder titled "Oral Records: Japan's World War II Secret Plan."
When Reinitz saw this, he finally shut his mouth and looked nervously at the curved TV screen. He waited for a long time, but Huo Shaoheng didn't move. Without turning around, he asked, "Why aren't you opening the folder?"
"Before I open the folder, I want to ask you, Reinitz. Do you know what kind of data you're looking for?" Even at this point, Huo Shaoheng didn't forget to squeeze out the value of Reinitz's information.
Reinitz didn't even look at him. He stared at the TV screen and said dryly, "Why are you asking me? Don't you already know? "
Huo Shaoheng nodded firmly. "I understand. It looks like my speculation was completely correct."
The folder's name indicated the content of his speculation.
Reinitz, however, was prejudiced. As soon as he saw the folder, he thought Huo Shaoheng knew everything and unknowingly revealed his trump card.
Gu Nianzhi turned around and made a heart sign to Huo Shaoheng.
Reinitz looked up in shock and asked, "What did you say? This is just your speculation?! "
He turned around and pointed at the folder on the curved TV screen. "Don't you have evidence?! How can it be speculation?! "
Huo Shaoheng's smile widened. "When did I say I had evidence? This is just a folder. The content inside has yet to be filled. "
As he spoke, he clicked on the folder. There was really nothing inside. It was empty.
He had been tricked!
Reinitz turned around abruptly and glared at Huo Shaoheng. Although he was handcuffed, he still gave Huo Shaoheng the middle finger.
Huo Shaoheng put away his smile and began to click on other folders with the mouse in one hand. He said, "Director Reinitz, don't be angry. You're already so angry now. What are you going to do later? Will you jump off a building in anger? Or jump into a river? "
