"Yamaguchi Youko?! She really didn't die! "Yin Shixiong nearly jumped up and knocked over the wine glass on the counter." Is it true?! That Yamaguchi Aiko is actually Yamaguchi Youko?! "
Yamaguchi Youko and Yamaguchi Aiko were both investigated by the Special Operations Forces, so Yin Shixiong immediately thought of this possibility.
"Most likely." Huo Shaoheng calmly put down his glass and stood up. "So we have to leave here as soon as possible and bring Gu Xiangwen back safely."
Yin Shixiong understood what Huo Shaoheng meant. "Huo Shao, you want to bring it forward …?"
"Yes. I'm only telling you that the operation the day after tomorrow is not a drill, but an official operation. " Huo Shaoheng finished speaking and strode away, leaving behind only a tall and broad silhouette that could bear all the heavy responsibilities in the world.
Yin Shixiong sat alone at the dimly lit bar and carefully thought through the operation from beginning to end. He was surprised to find that there was no pressure at all to change it to an official operation.
Also, because he had previously told Gu Yanran that he was going to visit her first, he had actually kept this from her as well …
"Hahahaha, brilliant! Truly brilliant! " Yin Shixiong's mood suddenly improved. He raised his glass and finished the rest of the bottle before returning to the guest room to rest drunkenly.
The next day, Gu Nianzhi woke up very late. She was only woken up because of He Zhichu's visit.
…
"Professor He is here?" Gu Nianzhi hurriedly got out of bed and dressed before rushing to the bathroom to wash up. She chose a sea-blue silk dress that covered her complexion and came down to see He Zhichu.
He Zhichu was sitting on the sofa in the corner of the living room, and Yin Shixiong was talking to him.
Gu Nianzhi quickly glanced around and saw that Huo Shaoheng was nowhere to be seen.
She didn't ask and walked over to He Zhichu with a nod. "Professor He, I was just about to go look for you. I didn't expect you to come."
He Zhichu turned around and looked Gu Nianzhi up and down. He smiled. "Nianzhi, how are you feeling? Do you still feel unwell? "
Gu Nianzhi's skin was snow-white. Because she was physically exhausted, there was not a trace of blood on her face. However, the sea-blue color only made her appear slightly fragile.
Gu Nianzhi smiled as she spread her arms and twirled them around. "See, everything is normal. I've made Professor He worry.
He Zhichu gestured for her to sit down. "Don't let your guard down. You should rest for two days first. I'm here to see you, and then I'll return home. "
"Professor He, are you leaving?" Gu Nianzhi sat down beside He Zhichu. "Why don't you stay for a few more days?"
He Zhichu was acutely aware that Gu Nianzhi's attitude towards him was different from before. She was no longer avoiding him and treated him like any other friend.
It didn't give him any special treatment, but he was happy because of this knowledge.
Being able to make Gu Nianzhi treat him like a normal person was already his biggest reward this time.
"No, I decided to come here on the spur of the moment. There are still a lot of things to do at school, and I can't leave your senior brothers and sisters behind for too long." He Zhichu said with a half-smile. He glanced at Gu Nianzhi and took the initiative to say, "Are you wondering how I knew you were in Barbados?"
Gu Nianzhi smiled sheepishly. "Will Professor He explain it to me then?"
"Of course." He Zhichu rested one hand on the back of the sofa and crossed his legs to lean against it. He looked at Gu Nianzhi. "It's a very simple deduction. I had just helped you get the medical records and dental records of Gu Nianzhi, the youngest daughter of the Gu family in Barbados, when Mr. Huo came to Cuba for a visit. I knew at the time that he had an ulterior motive. Then Prime Minister Dou's incident at the airport happened, and Gu Yanran rushed back to Barbados. Then you applied for leave in a hurry, and when I called you, your phone was already out of service. If I still can't guess where you went, then I'm not fit to be your mentor. "
Gu Nianzhi blinked and thought about it for a while, then said in confusion, "Okay, even if you could guess that I came to Barbados, but … how could you arrive at the blue hole near Barbados on time?"
Before they left, they had only told the embassy that they were going out to barbecue and fish for crabs. Huo Shaoheng and his team's diving trip to the blue hole was a secret mission, so they hadn't told anyone.
This was a difficult question to answer, and it was easy to make a mistake.
Fortunately, He Zhichu had already thought about how to answer this question before coming.
"This can only be a coincidence." He Zhichu leaned forward calmly and picked up his coffee from the coffee table to take a sip. "I was going to look for you, but I heard from the embassy that you went out to fish for crabs. I had my people check the whereabouts of all the commercial and private ships that went out to sea in Barbados today. I easily found the location of your Millennium Ota."
Gu Nianzhi replied, "Oh, why are you looking for me, Professor He?"
He Zhichu stared at her, his eyes filled with her shadow. "I came to see if you needed any help. After all, I'm more familiar with this place."
The He family was the underground godfather of South America, so He Zhichu was indeed able to do whatever he wanted here.
Gu Nianzhi nodded with conviction. She said sincerely, "Professor He, thank you so much. We really do need your help. If it weren't for you yesterday, we might not have made it back alive. "
"You're welcome. Nianzhi, you're so amazing. You would have made it back alive without me. But without you, they wouldn't have made it back alive. "As He Zhichu spoke, he glanced at Yin Shixiong, who was listening intently.
Yin Shixiong smiled sheepishly. "That's right. Without Nianzhi, we would all be dead!"
"Brother Xiong, don't say that. You guys saved me several times in the past. I'm just returning the favor this time." Gu Nianzhi felt no pressure facing He Zhichu and Yin Shixiong. She spoke and acted very casually. She didn't have to worry about whether her words and actions were pleasing or not.
He Zhichu's expression changed. "Nianzhi, did you encounter a lot of danger in the past? With Huo Shaoheng's power, he couldn't protect you?! "
Gu Nianzhi quickly waved her hands. "No, I didn't encounter a lot of danger. I just got caught in the crossfire a few times. It was Huo Shao, Brother Xiong, and Brother Ze who helped me out."
"Really? For example? "He Zhichu was very persistent and wouldn't let this question go.
Gu Nianzhi was a bit embarrassed to say it. She stammered, "Uh, Professor He, um, it was when I went on a graduation trip and ran into some robbers. It's nothing …"
She had subconsciously concealed the fact that she had been drugged at Feng Yixi's birthday party. It wasn't because of anything else, but because it was a strange topic for a man to talk about. She wasn't that open about it yet.
"When you graduated?" He Zhichu frowned. "How come I've never heard of it?"
"It was a long time ago, and it was perfectly resolved. All the robbers were killed, the hostages were rescued, and everyone was happy." Yin Shixiong interrupted. "Professor He, our Huo Shao was personally involved at the time. Normally, this kind of case doesn't require someone of Huo Shao's level to be involved!"
"Haha, that's true. So it was that incident. I heard about it once." He Zhichu chuckled and looked at Gu Nianzhi. "Nianzhi, when are you coming back?"
"I'll be leaving in two days." Gu Nianzhi brushed him off. She couldn't tell him the exact time because she didn't even know when she would be leaving Barbados.
"Is that so?" He Zhichu could tell she was brushing him off but didn't pursue the matter. "Ok then, I'll wait for you at school. You'll have to catch up on all the homework you missed. "
"Huh?!" Gu Nianzhi couldn't help screaming. "No way, Professor He! You came all the way here just to give me homework! "
"You're right." He Zhichu stood up. He was in a great mood. "I'll be going now. Call this number if you need anything. They'll do their best to help you." As he spoke, He Zhichu handed a business card to Gu Nianzhi. The card was simple and had a decorative passionflower pattern around the edges. There was only a phone number in the center.
"Thank you, Professor He." Gu Nianzhi hesitated, but accepted the card.
This incident had made her realize what it meant to rely on friends when she was away from home, so she didn't refuse He Zhichu's kindness.
It was better to be safe than sorry.
Gu Nianzhi personally walked He Zhichu out of the consulate. At the door, she ran into Huo Shaoheng, who had just returned.
He had just gotten out of an off-road Jeep. He was wearing camouflage hunting gear and holding a shotgun. When he saw He Zhichu and Gu Nianzhi walking down the steps of the consulate, Huo Shaoheng squinted and walked over to greet them. "Professor He, you're here. Why don't you stay a bit longer?"
"I'm going back to the Empire, so I came to see how Nianzhi is doing today." He Zhichu was no longer as aggressive as the other day. He appeared gentle and refined. "Did Mr. Huo go hunting?"
"Yeah, I went to the famous hunting grounds in Barbados to hunt some pheasants. I'm making soup for Nianzhi." Huo Shaoheng turned around and took out a few plump greyish-black pheasants with their wings tied up from the Jeep. He waved them at He Zhichu.
Gu Nianzhi's eyes widened and she couldn't help gulping. These were guinea pheasants imported from Guinea, Africa!
Real exotic wild game! They were perfect for nourishing the body!
