The corners of Reinitz's mouth twitched. He stood up with both hands in his trouser pockets, and his nonchalant words struck Gu Nianzhi so hard that she couldn't even breathe. "I cast the long line, but I didn't catch the big fish."
Reinitz took two steps forward and stood in front of Gu Nianzhi. He leaned over slightly and whispered in her ear, "Look, the person you've always wanted to protect still hasn't come to save you … It's such a shame." With that, Reinitz turned around and walked out of Gu Nianzhi's small room.
Hearing the sound of the door lock, Gu Nianzhi knew that she was really under house arrest this time.
They had already shed all pretense of cordiality and stopped "role-playing," so she naturally didn't have the treatment of the female lead.
From now on, she should be an obedient prisoner, right?
Gu Nianzhi curled up from the bed and hugged her knees as she sat on the edge of the bed. She silently stared at the snow-white wall in front of her, lost in thought.
…
Reinitz locked Gu Nianzhi's room and handed the key to Tina. "Keep an eye on her. There's a lot of things we haven't asked yet. Don't let her escape."
Tina held the key and said in surprise, "What's going on? Does it have something to do with her?! "
Other than Reinitz, no one thought that Gu Nianzhi was the "Pink Piggy" who had turned their world upside down …
After all, she was only an 18-year-old girl with outstanding qualifications in the law. How could she know how to use a computer? (← _ ←, there were many types of top students …)
At most, they thought it had something to do with her.
"She's an important clue, but she didn't say anything …" Reinitz was vague.
Reinitz spoke vaguely. He was also very conflicted. He had always been very decisive, but this was the first time he had shown indecisiveness.
Tina looked in the direction Reinitz had left with a complicated expression and couldn't help but call out, "Reinitz, do you know what you're doing?!"
Reinitz's footsteps paused and stopped, but he didn't turn around.
He raised his head and looked at the dark night sky. He didn't say anything and continued to walk forward. He got in the car and started it. The headlights were so bright that Tina instinctively covered her eyes with her arm.
The engine of Reinitz's sports car roared, and he quickly disappeared into the alley in front of the bar like an arrow.
The bartender was also an agent from the Federal Intelligence Service. He looked worriedly in the direction Reinitz had disappeared, then looked at the door lock on Gu Nianzhi's side. He asked quietly, "What happened? Are you really going to lock her up? "
"Don't worry about it. Go home, I'll watch over here today." The lady boss, Tina, waved her hand and let the bartender go home.
Only the owner, Tina, and Gu Nianzhi were left at the bar.
Because she knew that Gu Nianzhi was related to the hacker, "Pink Piggy," Tina now hated Gu Nianzhi to the core and wouldn't even let her have dinner.
Gu Nianzhi hadn't been hungry at all because she'd been in high spirits during her fight with Reinitz.
She was so sleepy that she went straight to bed.
When it was past midnight, she suddenly heard the screech of brakes outside the door. Gu Nianzhi was woken up by the noise. She rubbed her eyes and wondered if Reinitz had returned to interrogate her again.
In the end, she was wrong. The person who came was Als.
He chased after her with a murderous look on his face.
Tina yawned and opened the door to the bar to let Als in. She muttered, "It's so late. Are you in a hurry to reincarnate?!"
"Reincarnate?! I'm in a hurry to get an abortion! "Als glared at her." Is Gu Nianzhi still here?! I'm taking her away! "
Tina was even more shocked. "What's wrong? Reinitz came in the evening and locked her in the room. Now you're saying you're taking her away?! "
Why don't you two fight it out? Whoever wins gets to keep it!
Als snorted. "Reinitz is obsessed with women! Don't worry about him! "
He had just found out that Gu Nianzhi was the person related to the "Pink Piggy Hacker Case." He was furious.
He angrily rushed to the door of Gu Nianzhi's room and kicked it. His leg was almost crippled, but the custom-made metal door didn't budge.
Als: "!!!"
He angrily pulled out his gun and was about to shoot at the door lock.
Tina quickly stopped him. "Don't shoot! I have the key here! "
She didn't think twice before handing over the key that Reinitz had given her.
Anyway, when Reinitz left, he didn't say she wasn't allowed to give the key to others.
Als took the key and opened the door with a sullen expression. He kicked it again.
This time, the door was kicked open. Gu Nianzhi, who had just woken up, quickly wrapped her blanket around herself. She looked up at Als like he was crazy.
Als was so angry that he wanted to kick her!
He was wearing leather boots, and the hard soles were enough to make Gu Nianzhi suffer from cerebral palsy even if she didn't die.
Tina was shocked and quickly hugged Als from behind. She said, "Als, calm down! Reinitz said she's an important clue! If you beat her up, wouldn't you be disconnected?! "
If something happened to Gu Nianzhi, how would they be able to track the whereabouts of those emails?!
Als had been holding in his anger for two days and one night. If he didn't vent, he would go crazy!
"Let go! I won't hit her! But she must go with me! "Als stomped his feet in anger. He was so strong that Tina almost couldn't hold him anymore.
Tina regretted giving Als the key if she knew this would happen. If she really took Gu Nianzhi away, Reinitz would definitely blame her.
"Als, don't make things difficult for me." Tina became serious. "Think carefully about what Reinitz said."
Als waved his arms and made hissing sounds like a wild beast. Gu Nianzhi's mouth twitched as she watched.
How come she didn't realize that Als was a manic psychopath before?!
If this kind of person became the head of the secret service, the Federal Intelligence Agency would have no future. No wonder a small fry like her could wipe them out …
Gu Nianzhi couldn't help but feel proud, but she was still quite scared when she saw Als go crazy. It was fine to be looked down upon by a crazy person, but it really hurt to be hit by a crazy person.
Gu Nianzhi shrunk back into the blanket.
After Als screamed wildly, the depression in his heart finally eased a little.
He panted and glared at Gu Nianzhi. The gun in his hand was pointed at her head unknowingly as he gritted his teeth. "Speak! Who the hell did it?! "
Gu Nianzhi still had a timid and scared expression on her face, but she was very curious. Why didn't Reinitz tell these two that she, Gu Nianzhi, did it?!
Tina also said that Reinitz only said she was an important clue …
Now Als came to interrogate her about who did it.
So Reinitz didn't tell them the truth?
Since Reinitz didn't say anything, Gu Nianzhi wouldn't be stupid enough to volunteer that she did it.
Although she felt that she couldn't escape death, because of Reinitz, she had a glimmer of hope to live.
After all, he hadn't sold her out yet, so she wouldn't expose herself.
Gu Nianzhi stubbornly turned her head away. Suddenly, all kinds of revolutionary martyrs appeared on her body. She looked like she was saying, "I won't say it, I won't say it, I won't say it even if you beat me to death!"
Als became even angrier and suddenly approached Gu Nianzhi. He grabbed her hair and pulled her out of the blanket.
Gu Nianzhi slept in the long-sleeved pajamas that Tina gave her. She wasn't afraid of being exposed, but her scalp hurt from being pulled. She quickly tried to pry Als' hand away and said angrily, "Let go! What kind of man are you if you hit a woman?! "
"Why would I be talking about morality with a traitorous spy like you?!" Als laughed sinisterly and slapped Gu Nianzhi. The corner of her mouth began to bleed, and half of her face instantly swelled up again.
Gu Nianzhi gritted her teeth and didn't make a sound. She didn't want to give Als the pleasure of torturing her.
Als slapped her, but seeing that she didn't even make a sound, he was even more annoyed. He dragged her out of the small room by her hair and into the bar lobby.
Of course, there was no one else there. Only Tina was sitting at the bar in her nightgown mixing drinks. She didn't even look at them.
Als took out his handcuffs and cuffed Gu Nianzhi's right hand to a small carved iron railing in the bar lobby. He continued to interrogate her. "If you know what's good for you, then tell me now who the 'Pink Piggy' is and where she is. Otherwise, I have thousands of ways to make you wish you were dead!"
Gu Nianzhi's heart sank. She was afraid of pain and being tortured, but what she was even more afraid of was that he didn't torture her to death and instead discovered the secret to her rapid recovery …
To her, that would be a more terrifying torture than death.
If that was really the case, she might as well provoke Als and shoot her to death.
The sooner she died, the sooner she could be reincarnated. That way, she wouldn't have to suffer in bits and pieces.
Gu Nianzhi laughed coldly and said, "I'll point out whoever you want me to point out and frame whoever you want me to frame. You're the boss anyway, so you can drag whoever you want into this mess. I'm afraid of pain and I'm afraid that you'll hit me. Tell me, who do you want to make the scapegoat? This lady boss? The bartender or Reinitz? "
"You still dare to sow discord?!" Als was so mad at Gu Nianzhi that he wanted to stomp his feet. "See if I don't kill you?!"
He had never seen someone who could still argue with him when he was angry. She must be tired of living!
