He Zhichu didn't want to listen anymore, so he put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked to the window.
The curtains weren't opened, and he stood beside the milky white gauze curtains. He was wearing a light gray summer suit, and he stood tall and aloof.
Gu Nianzhi noticed He Zhichu's movement, and her eyes flashed.
She could feel He Zhichu's disapproval. Was she wrong?
But thinking about it again, He Zhichu had also said many times that he didn't know Gu Xiangwen's whereabouts.
Also, He Zhichu had always acted like he knew about the past, which was before Gu Nianzhi was 12 years old. After Gu Nianzhi left the Gu family at 12 and was rescued by Huo Shaoheng, He Zhichu didn't know anything.
From this perspective, there should be a reason why He Zhichu didn't know about the Gu family's situation.
Gu Nianzhi quietly pondered He Zhichu as she used the mouse to point at the coordinates of Cape Town. "… I want to go there and see."
Huo Shaoheng nodded. "I'll go prepare and set off directly to Cape Town in Africa from here."
Reinitz raised his handcuffs, his expression normal. "I have no interest at all now. Can you let me go?"
Huo Shaoheng ignored him and only waved at him to shut up. He looked at He Zhichu by the window, and then glanced at Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi understood and smiled at He Zhichu's back. "Professor He, do you want to go with us?"
He Zhichu didn't look back and only shook his head. "No, I only took a few days off. I still have things to do at school, so I can't be away for too long."
Gu Nianzhi didn't insist. "Okay, then Professor He can go back first. When we come back from Cape Town, I'll talk to you?"
"Yeah." He Zhichu finally responded after a while.
Huo Shaoheng was already mentally prepared for He Zhichu's reaction, so he didn't say much. He only reminded Gu Nianzhi, "Cape Town is in Africa. The situation there is complicated, and security is not guaranteed. Be especially careful."
Gu Nianzhi nodded quickly. "I understand. I'll go prepare now."
In order to track down her father's whereabouts and her own background, Gu Nianzhi couldn't care less.
She left the study first and went back to her bedroom to pack her things.
When He Zhichu heard Gu Nianzhi leave, he also turned around and walked out without a word without looking at Huo Shaoheng and Reinitz.
Only Reinitz and Huo Shaoheng were left in the study.
The door of the study was gently closed by the person at the door, and the room was quiet.
Reinitz raised his hands to Huo Shaoheng again and said very seriously, "Major General Huo, can you promise me to let me leave this place? I want to go back to China. "
"You want to leave? Reinitz, have you forgotten that you are now my captive? "Huo Shaoheng folded his hands behind his back and looked at Reinitz calmly as he answered his question in English.
Reinitz quickly switched to English. "No, no, no, I didn't forget. I'm not as skilled as you, so I was captured by you. I accept it wholeheartedly. But you and I are just serving different masters, there is no deep hatred between the two of us, don't you think? "
Huo Shaoheng smiled mysteriously and crossed his arms. "Is that so? Is there no deep hatred between the two of us? I don't think so. "
Huo Shaoheng put down his arms and walked over to Reinitz. He grabbed his collar and said coldly, "Reinitz, the trap you set in the Alps almost made Nianzhi break down. Did you forget all that? But I didn't forget. "
He was going to bring up the past.
Reinitz couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
At that time, he was the proud leader of the Gestapo and the Director of the Federal Intelligence Agency.
Although he was gradually attracted to Gu Nianzhi, his heart had always been on the interests of the country.
Unlike now, Huo Shaoheng's words had almost destroyed his faith.
Reinitz was forcing himself to be calm, but his heart was actually already filled with despair.
It was like standing in the wilderness of time and suddenly realizing that he was floating like duckweed.
"… Fine, then do whatever you want." Reinitz closed his eyes. "I don't regret what I've done. If I could do it all over again, I would still do it. "
Until he knew the truth.
Huo Shaoheng let go of Reinitz's collar and took a step back. He thought about it for a moment and seemed to have made up his mind. "Reinitz, you know we have rules. I can't just let people go."
"Huh?" Reinitz was a bit confused and said with disappointment, "Don't you have special authority? In our line of work, there are so many things to do outside. How can we report everything to the Empire? "
"Our country is different from your country," Huo Shaoheng said calmly. Huo Shaoheng said calmly, his expression extremely solemn. "However, since you helped Nianzhi hide it, I can make an exception this time."
Reinitz originally thought that there was no hope, but Huo Shaoheng changed the topic and the situation immediately turned around.
Reinitz looked at Huo Shaoheng and smiled. "… You're making an exception, so there must be conditions, right?"
He was too familiar with the way people like them did things.
Huo Shaoheng didn't smile and still said very seriously, "I hope that after you go back, you can pay close attention to your bureau's movements regarding the Japanese and keep me informed." As he spoke, Huo Shaoheng stuffed a flash drive into Reinitz's hand. "There's a password and phone number here. All you have to do is dial this phone number and enter the password to leave a message. Don't worry, I'm the only one who can check this email. "
Reinitz looked at Huo Shaoheng in shock.
This person really didn't do business at a loss …
He was actually developing Reinitz as his inside man!
Oh, Reinitz!
Developing the head of a country's intelligence agency as his own inside man … Just the thought of it made him a bit excited …
The corners of Reinitz's mouth twitched as he shook his head to get rid of this strange thought. He frowned and said, "… You want me to betray my country? No, I won't do such a thing. Just kill me. "
Huo Shaoheng folded his hands behind his back and said calmly, "No, I'm not asking you to betray your country. I don't need any information related to your country, but if you have any news regarding the Japanese, especially regarding their Operation Borrowed Seed, I hope that you will inform me immediately. This matter is very important to us, especially to Nianzhi, but it has nothing to do with your country's interests. "
Reinitz understood. "Is it information related to the Japanese's Operation Borrowed Seed?"
"Yes." Huo Shaoheng looked down and opened a document on his laptop. He opened it for Reinitz to see. "If you agree, sign your name on this memorandum of understanding for a cooperation agreement."
There was a printer in the study, so Huo Shaoheng printed out the English version of the memorandum of understanding in duplicate for Reinitz to sign.
Reinitz quickly read through it and immediately signed his name.
This memorandum of understanding was beneficial to both of them.
With this memorandum of understanding, their interactions would be semi-official.
Of course, it only stipulated that Reinitz had to fulfill his obligations. Huo Shaoheng didn't have to do anything for the Gestapo at all.
Reinitz had been in a hurry to escape at the time, so he hadn't thought about this issue carefully.
It wasn't until he returned to his own country and took out the memorandum of understanding to look at it in detail that he discovered Huo Shaoheng had tampered with it.
At that moment, Huo Shaoheng had already taken Gu Nianzhi to Cape Town, the second largest city in the southernmost country in Africa.
Gu Nianzhi walked out of the airport and was greeted by a wave of heat that almost made her faint.
Huo Shaoheng supported her with one hand and pushed two suitcases with the other as he stood at the entrance of the airport.
"Nianzhi, this way! This way! "
In this country where black people were everywhere, Gu Nianzhi was very surprised to suddenly hear someone call her name in Mandarin.
She turned her head in the direction of the voice and saw a handsome, dark-skinned face giving her a big smile.
"Brother Ze?! Why are you here?! "Gu Nianzhi carefully looked at the person and finally recognized him.
It was actually Zhao Liangze!
