When He Zhichu heard this, he only grunted to indicate that he understood.
Gu Nianzhi was still worried and wanted to warn He Zhichu, but she was afraid of hurting his self-esteem. After thinking about it, she still said, "Professor He, you have to be careful. I think Gu Yanran's actions are a bit unusual."
"What do you mean? Just say it." He Zhichu noticed Gu Nianzhi was speaking carefully to him. His face was expressionless as he lowered his head to take a deep drag on his cigarette.
Ye Xuan studied He Zhichu and noticed there was an indescribable softness on his face when he answered the call. Although he looked expressionless, his aura was different.
Gu Nianzhi saw that He Zhichu didn't mind, so she quickly said, "The topic she started is a bit strange. It's like she's writing an explanation. What time, where, what happened, and what's going on? She's just short of shouting and asking someone to go somewhere."
He Zhichu narrowed his eyes and smiled darkly. "Your intuition is good. She's probably looking for help."
Gu Nianzhi felt like her worst imagination had come true, and her face fell. "Oh? Then Professor He, will you be in danger? "
"I'm fine." He Zhichu's heart warmed, and his cold voice seemed to warm up. "You haven't told anyone that I'm in the United States, right?"
Gu Nianzhi quickly said, "Not yet. The court is still communicating with the police headquarters, and the police headquarters is waiting for news from the United States. So as long as the United States refuses to cooperate, the police headquarters can't do anything for the time being. They won't send special forces to the United States to extradite Ye Xuan. "
"That's good. Keep it a secret for as long as possible, and my side will be safer. Ye Xuan has already been released on bail and will be in court soon. "He Zhichu said it very simply, but Gu Nianzhi understood.
"Ok, Professor He. Then you and Ye Xuan have to be careful!" Gu Nianzhi's mood instantly improved when she heard that Ye Xuan had already been released on bail.
"You have to be careful, too." He Zhichu reminded her. "Keep the phone I gave you with you at all times."
"Got it. I bring it with me every day." Gu Nianzhi quickly took out the phone He Zhichu gave her and waved it.
He Zhichu couldn't see it, but he could imagine Gu Nianzhi's movements. The corners of his lips curled up almost imperceptibly.
After hanging up, He Zhichu's mood was much better. He raised his hand to throw the unfinished cigarette into the trash can and said to Ye Xuan, "Ok, go rest and get ready for court."
Ye Xuan glanced at him, threw his cigarette away, and turned to leave.
He Zhichu stood alone on the balcony and stared at the brownish-red mountains in the distance, lost in thought for a while. He took out his phone and called the Utah Supreme Court.
The Utah Superior Court, also known as the Circuit Court, would come to Little Rock to hear the case after it was scheduled.
"… I want to apply for privacy protection for Ye Xuan's case. I don't want the Little Rock Canyon Police Department or any other government agency to release any information related to the interrogation to the media."
This was an absolutely reasonable request, and the court actually did not like media exposure.
Ever since the Vanderbilt family's case came out, the police station in Little Rock Canyon, especially the police chief, treated themselves as people from the entertainment circle. They wished they could hold press conferences every day …
In reality, He Zhichu's request came at the right time.
When the court order was delivered to the Little Rock Canyon Police Department, the police chief was planning to hold another press conference. At the conference, he would lash out at those vampire-like bad lawyers, especially scum like He Zhichu!
The court order made the police chief break out in a cold sweat.
What were they trying to do?!
Were they trying to restrict freedom of speech?!
However, the police chief only dared to criticize silently and did not dare to openly violate the order.
Moreover, He Zhichu was invoking the Human Rights Protection Act of the US Constitution and using "privacy protection" as an excuse. If he dared to violate this request and the media exposed it, he would really not be able to receive his pension.
The scheduled press conference was canceled just like that. The angry police chief was just about to give himself a vacation when he received a call from the city government.
"Mr. Police Chief, an important person will be visiting Ovi Air Force Base tomorrow. Please arrange for personnel to do the security work."
"Yes, Mr. Mayor." The police chief quickly stood up with the phone and was very respectful. "May I ask who this important person is?"
"It's said that for the sake of confidentiality, no one knows yet. Mr. Police Chief, you just need to do your job well. Someone has already complained that you used too much taxpayer money to hold a press conference. Mr. Police Chief, you are the police chief, not someone from the entertainment industry. "
The police chief's face couldn't be any redder, and his dark, flushed face looked very awkward.
He put down the phone and couldn't be bothered with Ye Xuan's case for now. Anyway, it had already been handed over to the court, and whether or not he could be convicted depended on the city's prosecutor.
…
At night, He Zhichu had just finished showering and was holding a glass of red wine in the living room of his hotel suite, slowly savoring it.
At that moment, someone rang the doorbell.
He Zhichu stood up and walked to the door to look through the peephole on the door. He saw that Little A had arrived.
There was no one else in the hallway except for Little A.
He Zhichu opened the door to let him in.
Little A carried a small suitcase and threw himself onto He Zhichu's sofa as soon as he entered. He howled, "Mr. He, your request this time is too much! I can't satisfy it! "
"Then get lost." He Zhichu left the living room without looking back. He didn't even look at Little A once.
Little A was only bluffing to get He Zhichu to add some money, but he didn't expect He Zhichu to directly ask him to leave.
He awkwardly crawled up from the sofa and followed He Zhichu to the bar. He made himself a tequila cocktail and presented it to He Zhichu with a smile. "Mr. He, try the tequila I made. I haven't made a drink for Mr. He in a long time."
He Zhichu didn't move. His shimmering, sultry eyes turned to look at him from the corner of his eyes. "What nonsense are you talking about? What I want must be in place by tomorrow. If you can't do it, then get lost the way you came. "
"Mr. He, you don't know, do you? This matter is really more difficult than just the average kind. " Little A assumed the posture of a long conversation and said earnestly, "If it were any other time, it wouldn't be a big deal if it was a little difficult. What's so great about the Air Force Base?! Us brothers can't compare to them investigating when we risk our lives. "
"Get to the point." He Zhichu took a sip of the tequila Little A made for him. His eyes slanted, and his gaze was as sharp as a knife. He shook off his usual elegance and modesty, leaving only a body full of murderous intent and hostility.
"Sigh, I really can't hide anything from you. The point is, we just received news that the commander of the Pacific Fleet, Mr. Laris, will be visiting Ovi Air Force Base tomorrow. The security here in Little Rock Canyon has been increased by three levels. It's now the highest level. "Little A spread his hands." Look, isn't it even more difficult for us? "
"The commander of the Pacific Fleet, Laris?" He Zhichu's brows furrowed. "That Japanese-American?"
"Yes, that's him." Little A chuckled. "This guy still has some skills. The Pacific Fleet is based at Pearl Harbor. Everyone knows what Japan once did to Pearl Harbor."
To allow a Japanese-American to be the commander of the Pacific Fleet based at Pearl Harbor, the Americans were really extraordinarily ambitious …
"The commander of the Pacific Fleet is the commander of the Navy. What is he doing at Ovi Air Force Base?" He Zhichu took out his phone and searched the news, but there were no reports yet.
"Laris's arrival was rather sudden," Little A explained to He Zhichu. "We received the news through special channels. Because of your commission, we had to do a lot of preparatory work, including intelligence gathering like this. "
He Zhichu nodded. "It's a bit difficult, but I believe that with Little A's position and ability at the top of the Whitewater Security Company, you should be able to take proper security measures for your own clients."
Little A was elated by He Zhichu's praise and proudly puffed out his chest. "Mr. He, you really have good taste! I really did do that. "
"Before coming here, I applied for a wartime weapon permit from the Little Rock Canyon municipal government to protect the safety of my clients. Mr. He, your status is no less than that of the commander of the Pacific Fleet. We also gave you the highest level of security! "Little A flattered He Zhichu from all angles.
He Zhichu took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a drag. He slowly blew out a smoke ring. "Did you bring the thing I asked you to bring?"
"I brought it. Otherwise, why would I personally make a trip here? Was it really to mix drinks for you?! "Little A laughed at himself and pointed to the living room." It's in that small suitcase. "
"You took it out from the bank safe?"
"Yes, your serial number and returning it to He Zhichu." What do you want to do with this thing? "
He Zhichu was suddenly interested and nodded at Little A. "Do you want to see it?"
"Of course!" Little A was very interested in weapons.
The thing He Zhichu asked him to bring was a pile of components of all shapes and sizes. They were placed in a bank safe and were rented at exorbitant prices every year.
Little A didn't believe these were just normal components.
He Zhichu walked to the living room and opened the small suitcase Little A brought. He poured out the separated components in transparent bags.
