He Zhichu didn't care and directly opened the door to get in the car.
After sitting in the car, the dark brown window slowly rolled down, and He Zhichu's face, as clear as an ice sculpture, appeared from behind the window.
He looked at the dumbfounded Little A and chuckled. "… You're scared?"
"Scared?! The word 'scared' doesn't exist in my dictionary! "Little A was so agitated he almost stomped his feet, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt he needed to remind He Zhichu.
"But Mr. He, do you know where there are places nearby?" Little A didn't give up and grabbed He Zhichu's door. "There's the famous Ovi Air Force Base here! You want me to bring in this wartime equipment right under the nose of these Air Force soldiers?! "
He Zhichu's shimmering, sultry eyes flashed as he looked straight ahead and said dryly, "That's your problem, not mine."
"But this is the Ovi Air Force Base!" Little A slammed the door hard and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth. "All the B2 stealth bomber pilots train here! They're also the only flight squadron in the world to carry out atomic bomb missions! Fighting a limited local war here, are you waiting to be wiped out by them?! Mr. He, where's your rationality?! "
He Zhichu's expression froze for a moment, but he quickly gathered his thoughts and turned to look at Little A. His cold thin lips curled into a mocking smile. "So, you're still scared. Drive. "
With these two words, the driver in the front stepped on the gas, and his bulletproof Cadillac car immediately shot out like an arrow leaving the bow.
Little A almost tumbled from the car's instantaneous acceleration.
He staggered forward a few steps before he steadied himself and stopped.
The car couldn't catch up and instantly disappeared from his vision.
Little A cursed as he took out his phone and dialed He Zhichu's number again.
He said gruffly, "Mr. He, your request this time is a bit excessive. I need to ask my superior."
"Whatever." He Zhichu wore a Bluetooth headset and opened his phone with one hand to browse the local news.
Very good, there hadn't been any special incidents in Little Rock Canyon, Utah recently, and the Ovi Air Force Base was also operating normally.
The news of him coming to the United States was temporarily confidential, so Gu Nianzhi wouldn't tell anyone.
Only when he went to the police station to request bail for Ye Xuan would the news that he was in the United States spread.
At that time, everything he required must be in place.
The car window was not closed, and the salty wind blew from the wilderness, bringing with it an icy chill.
He Zhichu took a deep breath. His fingers trembled uncontrollably, and he gripped his gun.
He had been a lawyer for so long that he had forgotten what he used to do.
Uncle Gu was right. A person's potential was limitless.
This sentence was not a figure of speech, nor was it a figure of speech. It was the literal meaning.
Closing his eyes slightly, He Zhichu, who hadn't slept for a day and a night, fell asleep.
…
"Brother, I want to be a lawyer when I grow up." It was Gu Nianzhi's twelfth birthday. She was wearing a pink diamond crown and a pink chiffon dress. Her chubby little face was round, and her chubby little hands were clutching the hem of his shirt. He could clearly see the little dimples on the back of her hands.
"… Brother He." He Zhichu corrected her without batting an eyelid. That was when he was 22 years old, and he was even colder than he was now. He would only show a hint of warmth when he saw Gu Nianzhi.
From the six-year-old girl who would hide and tremble when she first arrived to the lively, cheerful, and lovable little girl now, his hard work over the past six years had not been in vain.
"Brother He, I want to be a lawyer when I grow up. I want to be as prestigious as Brother He's mother!" The twelve-year-old Gu Nianzhi insisted on her "dream." Actually, it was only because she had watched the video archive of He Zhichu's mother defending herself in court.
"Yes, when you graduate from university, you can apply to law school and become a lawyer." He Zhichu stood beside her and bowed to push a birthday cake in front of her. He looked at her with a smile. "My little princess, blow out the candles."
"Blow out the candles! Blow out the candles! "The guests cheered in unison.
"I still have to wait until I graduate from university?! I can't wait! I want to be a lawyer tomorrow! " The twelve-year-old Gu Nianzhi loudly announced her birthday wish. At the same time, she puffed up her chubby little face and blew out all the candles in one breath.
The chandelier in the living room suddenly went out, and the room suddenly became very dark. It was so dark that one couldn't even see their own fingers.
The guests in the room held their breath, thinking it was a special program.
It was the He family's only son's little fiancée's twelfth birthday. Everyone was looking forward to a different program.
After all, in the past five birthdays, everyone had been surprised every year.
But the surprise of that year was just too great ….
When the lights came back on, everyone in the room was in the same place, except for Gu Nianzhi.
He Zhichu stood alone next to the cake, and Gu Nianzhi, who had been next to him, had disappeared.
A pink diamond crown had fallen to the ground, and under the chandelier, it emitted a dazzling rainbow halo.
…
Screech!
The Cadillac's bulletproof car suddenly braked and stopped in front of the largest four-star hotel in the suburbs of Little Rock Canyon.
He Zhichu's body swayed, and he woke up from his dream.
His thoughts were still stuck on the day of Gu Nianzhi's birthday seven years ago.
From the time the lights went out to when they came back on, only seven seconds had passed.
And in those seven seconds, Gu Xiangwen had "stolen" Gu Nianzhi from He Zhichu's side without anyone noticing.
In the beginning, he didn't know who had "stolen" Gu Nianzhi from the crowd.
He only remembered flying into a rage and immediately declaring martial law in the city. He sent a large number of soldiers to search every house.
After seven days and seven nights, he finally received news, but by the time he arrived, it was already too late.
All he heard was a loud rumble, and then he saw flames soaring into the sky and a mushroom cloud rising into the sky.
Gu Nianzhi's father, Gu Xiangwen, was laughing maniacally in the fire, like a real lunatic …
…
He Zhichu rubbed his forehead and waited for the driver to open the door for him.
Ever since he found Gu Nianzhi, he hadn't had this dream again.
He didn't expect to have another dream in the car today.
The door opened, and He Zhichu stepped out.
His assistant from the American law firm, Smith, had been waiting on the steps of the hotel for a long time.
"Lawyer He, you're finally here!" Smith happily came down the steps. "What do you want me to do? Just tell me what to do! "
He Zhichu looked at him and curled his lips slightly. His aloof face was calm. "Did you receive the message I sent you?"
"I did. I already contacted Ye Xuan's lawyer, and he agreed to hand Ye Xuan over to us. However, he had one condition. "Smith chuckled." I didn't think it was a big deal, so I agreed. "
"What condition?" He Zhichu didn't stop walking as he walked to the hotel lobby.
"He wants to see you and exchange business cards with you," Smith said happily as he followed He Zhichu into the hotel lobby.
In the hotel lobby, the lawyer Ye Xuan had randomly found stood up excitedly and walked over to He Zhichu eagerly. He reached out his hand, and his voice was trembling with excitement. "Is this Lawyer He? Nice to meet you! "
He Zhichu's name was legendary in the American legal world. He rarely appeared in court, so when he took the initiative to contact him this time to be the lawyer for an arson and murder suspect, the lawyer almost thought it was a prank on a TV station and blurted out a curse at Smith.
It wasn't until Smith used their law firm's work email account to send him an official email that the lawyer was dumbfounded.
He quickly went to the police station to visit Ye Xuan and told him about the matter.
Ye Xuan was slightly surprised, but he didn't object when he thought of He Zhichu's relationship with Gu Nianzhi.
The lawyer's transfer agreement was signed very smoothly. Now, he only had to wait for He Zhichu to sign as well to officially establish a client relationship with Ye Xuan.
He Zhichu was also very polite to this sensible lawyer. He nodded. "Nice to meet you."
The two of them chatted for a while and exchanged business cards. He Zhichu said he needed to get used to the time difference and returned to his room to rest.
Smith was left there to handle the handover with the lawyer.
The lawyer returned happily after receiving He Zhichu's business card. He framed the card and hung it in the most eye-catching position in his office. It also became one of his signboards.
He Zhichu didn't know any of this. Or rather, even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
Right now, all his attention was on Ye Xuan's case.
After Smith sent the lawyer off, He Zhichu called Smith. "Contact the Little Rock Canyon police station immediately. I'm going to visit Ye Xuan and prepare for bail."
"Ok, Lawyer He." Smith immediately transferred the call to the Little Rock Canyon police station.
…
When the Little Rock Canyon police chief heard that Ye Xuan had changed his lawyer, and this lawyer seemed to have some background, he was even more unconvinced.
He waved his thick fists and roared at He Zhichu and Smith in the office, "Bail?! Don't even think about it! Not unless you step over my dead body! "
He Zhichu folded his hands behind his back and said coldly, "Mr. Sheriff, whether or not he can be released on bail is not up to you. I'm just reminding you."
"I don't have the final say?! Are you saying you have the final say?! " The Little Rock Canyon police chief had worked here his entire life. He had started as a small police officer and had already worked in this police station for nearly 30 years.
Here, his words were law and order.
"Of course I don't have the final say. The judge has the final say." He Zhichu didn't mince words with this kind of tyrant sheriff. "I will apply to the judge to schedule the court hearing ahead of time."
"What right do you have to do that?!" The sheriff was furious. "There are rules for court scheduling! It hasn't been his case yet, so you can't have special privileges?! "
"Special privileges?! I thought you were the one who had special privileges, Mr. Sheriff. You have been detaining my client for more than 72 hours. I will reserve the right to seek compensation from the Little Rock Canyon city government and police. " He Zhichu glanced at the sheriff coldly and picked up his phone. In front of the sheriff, he called the High Court in charge of the Little Rock Canyon area in Utah.
