Bai Jinyi's slightly old and hoarse voice came from the phone.
"… I don't know who called me. The phone number is also very strange. I tried to check it before, but it's an invalid number."
"… the person who called was a man. I've never heard his voice before. He seemed to be in a hurry and only called for less than a minute. He spoke very quickly and hurriedly told me the time and place. Then he said that if I brought Huo Shaoheng with me at this time and place, he would give me a big gift! — — And the result? Big gift my ass! He's a complete liar! "
Huo Shaoheng's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, but his expression remained calm. He smiled and said calmly, "Thank you, Director Bai. This clue is indeed very important. However, Bai Jinyi's concealment has indeed caused a lot of trouble and damage to our work. "
Bai Yueran understood what Huo Shaoheng meant. She lowered her voice and said, "Major General Huo, I really have no intention of pleading for my aunt. I just want to tell you that she knows this clue. As for the fact that she didn't report it seven years ago, it's also a fact. I won't plead for her. "
She sent the recording to Huo Shaoheng. "You can study it yourself. I'll go back first."
Huo Shaoheng looked at Bai Yueran's lonely back as she turned around and said sincerely, "Thank you, Director Bai."
Bai Yueran didn't turn around and waved her hand casually. "Major General Huo, you're welcome. This is my duty."
She had selfish motives. She wanted to protect the Bai family's reputation and the family's overall interests, but she had never made a mistake in her work. Moreover, to her, the country's interests were definitely before the Bai family's.
Perhaps in the eyes of some people, she couldn't be completely selfless, nor could she care and protect her family regardless of their gains and losses. She might even be a little unreasonable, but she didn't want to change her ways.
She had her own sense of what she should and shouldn't do.
Huo Shaoheng silently shifted his gaze to his phone.
Bai Yueran had just sent all the contents of Bai Jinyi's conversation to his phone.
Bai Jinyi's voice was very, very low. With such a low voice, the surveillance system in the visiting room probably wouldn't be able to record this conversation.
So Bai Yueran had really done him a great favor.
Huo Shaoheng's brows furrowed slightly. He transferred the conversation to the computer and used the audio system to analyze for tampering and editing before amplifying it so he could hear it more clearly.
Alone in his office, he listened to the recording over and over again and gradually came up with a few clues.
Seven years ago, he had saved Nianzhi. It was the result of a meticulous plot. It was not a coincidence.
As for Nianzhi's memory loss, he didn't know if the other party had done it on purpose, or if it had been an accident, or if she had lost her memory to begin with.
However, he could be sure of one thing. As soon as Nianzhi came to his side, he lost contact with her.
That was because they had spent six years without finding any clues.
The only clue that surfaced was when He Zhichu came to Nianzhi's side a year ago.
It looked like He Zhichu was the key to the problem.
Huo Shaoheng's frown deepened.
Was the invalid number that had been called to Bai Jinyi the same as the two invalid numbers that they had encountered later?
However, Bai Jinyi definitely wouldn't say it directly. This was her trump card that she wanted to hang up and sell.
After careful consideration, Huo Shaoheng didn't plan to let her have her way.
In fact, even if this invalid number was the same as the previous two, it would be useless.
Because with their current technology, they couldn't investigate this invalid number at all.
Moreover, after thinking about it, he still believed that there were two groups of people behind this living Gu Nianzhi. One group had no ill intentions towards her, and the other group wanted nothing more than to kill her.
The person who had sent the text message to Xiao Ye's mother must have wanted nothing more than to kill her.
However, the people who had kidnapped her this time should be the group that had no ill intentions towards her.
Even so, Huo Shaoheng still felt uneasy.
He was used to having her under his wing.
This woman could have no parents or friends, but she couldn't live without him.
He also didn't feel at ease leaving her in anyone's hands.
But now, she was nowhere to be found.
Huo Shaoheng walked out of the office with a heavy heart. He said expressionlessly to Zhao Liangze, who was outside the door, "I'm going to the Institute of High Energy Physics. You're in charge of everything here."
Zhao Liangze looked at him worriedly. He felt that Huo Shaoheng's mental state wasn't right.
In his opinion, Huo Shaoheng should be very sad, very sad, very angry, and very desperate, just like how he had watched Bai Shuang die in front of him. However, Huo Shaoheng's expression didn't change at all.
He kept working and was as comfortable as before. Although he was also constantly looking for Gu Nianzhi, he didn't neglect the entire Special Operations Forces and the military.
No matter how capable Huo Shaoheng was, he was still human.
Although they were soldiers and had a much higher ability to endure hardships and hardships than ordinary people, it didn't mean that they were made of steel and couldn't feel pain.
If he couldn't find Gu Nianzhi after suppressing himself like this, Zhao Liangze didn't dare to imagine the consequences.
However, looking at Huo Shaoheng's tall and determined back, he could only say, "Yes, sir."
..
Huo Shaoheng came out of his office and asked Fan Jian to drive him to the Institute of High Energy Physics.
Firstly, he wanted to study Huo Guanyuan's phone again. Secondly, he wanted to see the results of Chen Lie's full series of DNA comparisons.
After they got off the plane, Chen Lie rushed into the Institute of High Energy Physics and worked with Song Jinning and used the quantum computer to perform large-scale calculations. He didn't return to the Special Operations Forces headquarters at all.
It was already dark when they arrived at the entrance of the Institute of High Energy Physics.
Huo Shaoheng got out of the car and leaned against the car door to smoke a cigarette before walking in.
Song Jinning was eating dinner in her office while looking at the data on the computer.
When she saw Huo Shaoheng come in, she quickly asked, "You're here. Have you had dinner?"
Huo Shaoheng wasn't hungry at first, but when he saw the two dishes and soup on Song Jinning's desk, he suddenly felt a little hungry.
He shook his head. "Not yet. Do you have anything to eat here?"
"Let's go to the cafeteria. Our cafeteria here is pretty good." Song Jinning cleaned up the bowls, chopsticks, and spoons on the table and stood up with her meal card.
Huo Shaoheng: "…"
He had almost forgotten that Song Jinning didn't know how to cook either.
The two dishes and soup on the table were obviously bought from the cafeteria.
He didn't say anything and quietly followed Song Jinning out of the office. His mind was still thinking about the discoveries and doubts he had made over the past few days.
All the clues were arranged into a network in his mind. He only needed to wait for one result, which was the comparison results of Chen Lie's DNA sequence. Then, he would be able to find the path he should take in the maze-like network.
The two of them walked out of the laboratory building. Not long after, they arrived at the cafeteria of the Institute of High Energy Physics.
It was only around 6: 30 pm, and it was the busiest time in the cafeteria.
People came and went, and the lights were brightly lit. The air was filled with the unique aroma of the food in the cafeteria. There was a sense of beauty and warmth in the world.
Huo Shaoheng and Song Jinning walked in.
"Director Song brought his son here for dinner?"
People who were familiar with Song Jinning greeted her with a smile.
Song Jinning nodded with a smile. "Yes, he's too busy and didn't even have time for dinner. I accompanied him to get another meal."
Huo Shaoheng had his hands in his trouser pockets. It was obvious that he was distracted. He only nodded casually and followed Song Jinning to buy two dishes and a soup. He placed them in a food box that could be taken away.
The two of them returned to Song Jinning's office. Huo Shaoheng sat in front of Song Jinning's desk and began to eat dinner.
It was rare for the mother and son to eat together like this.
Song Jinning looked at Huo Shaoheng carefully and suddenly said, "You've lost a lot of weight recently. Although you're busy with work, you have to take care of your health."
When Huo Shaoheng wasn't on a mission, his eating schedule was very regular.
In his official residence, he had to eat a steak every meal, as well as all kinds of high-protein and nutritious meals.
However, during this period of time, he was indeed hungry and full. He couldn't eat, and he didn't feel anything when he ate.
Huo Shaoheng paused and grunted. He quickly finished everything on the plate.
After cleaning up the dishes, he said to Song Jinning, "Uncle's phone is still with you, right?"
Song Jinning looked at him strangely. "Yes, what's wrong? Why do you want his phone? "
"I want to take a look." He told Song Jinning what Bai Jinyi had said, and finally asked, "… Do you think there's a way to find out where the phone call from seven years ago came from?"
Song Jinning's expression was very cautious. She frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "It's hard to say. If the phone operator can't find out where that number came from, then only the quantum communicator has the ability. "
Huo Shaoheng looked up in surprise. "Quantum communicator? Doesn't Gu Xiangwen have a broken quantum communicator? "
Song Jinning nodded. "Yes, I don't have the ability to fix it. Didn't Nianzhi say that she wanted to study it properly? "
Song Jinning was filled with regret for accidentally mentioning Gu Nianzhi. She quickly glanced at Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng had already fallen silent. He said, "It should be at Nianzhi's house. I'll bring it over for you to study."
"I really don't have that ability," Song Jinning told the truth. Song Jinning told the truth. "Look, the quantum computer we worked so hard to create is only a prototype. How can we repair a more advanced quantum communicator?"
"Even you don't have such great ability. Then Gu Xiangwen … How did he research it?" Huo Shaoheng was puzzled.
Song Jinning shook her head. "I don't know either, but I'm about to unlock that music box. Why don't I give you the phone and you can study it yourself? I'll see if I can unlock Gu Xiangwen's music box as soon as possible."
That music box was the one Huo Shaoheng and the others had found in Gu Xiangwen's "Cereus I" submarine.
It was found in the submarine. According to Gu Xiangwen's holographic last words, it contained his greatest research results.
"Okay, I'll take a look at that phone." Huo Shaoheng agreed. He took his uncle Huo Guanyuan's phone from Song Jinning.
