"Do I need to lie to you?" Huo Shaoheng said calmly. He put down his phone and put on his Bluetooth headset to work on the computer while talking.
He Zhichu carefully recalled what Huo Shaoheng had just said and confirmed again, "Does your country have this material in the laboratory, or is it already in use? These are two different concepts. "
"Our country had this material in the laboratory 17 years ago, but whether or not it was put into use is a national secret. I can't leak it." Huo Shaoheng gave a half-truth, which made He Zhichu very suspicious.
He thought about it for a while and understood that Huo Shaoheng must be lying to him. "Haha … If that's the case, then why are you asking me?"
"So Professor He means that you really know the origin of this gun?" Huo Shaoheng keenly grasped the hidden message in He Zhichu's words and continued to trick him. "The shooter's target is Nianzhi. You won't just sit back and do nothing, right?"
He Zhichu choked, but he wasn't easily scared by Huo Shaoheng. He laughed coldly. "Didn't I tell you the origin before? The top five US military laboratories. With Major General Huo's ability, it shouldn't be difficult for him to infiltrate the US military laboratories, right? I won't show off in front of an expert. "He hung up.
When Huo Shaoheng called again, it always went to voicemail.
He Zhichu didn't want to continue talking to him.
However, Huo Shaoheng didn't expect He Zhichu to tell him the truth.
He had only called him to confirm that He Zhichu was aware of the shooter's background.
Seeing how calm He Zhichu was, Huo Shaoheng guessed that the shooter's crazy behavior was definitely a one-time thing. There wouldn't be a similar pursuit again.
It was for no other reason than that the gun was too precious.
This kind of suicidal behavior of self-destructing as soon as the attack failed was a one-sided deal. It could only be said that the enemy was already hysterical.
This was their final madness, and they had already been defeated by He Zhichu.
From a rational point of view, Huo Shaoheng felt that Gu Nianzhi wouldn't face the same level of danger again. There wouldn't be another crazy shooter of the same level in the Imperial Capital.
But from an emotional point of view, Huo Shaoheng was still a bit worried.
However, the nature of his work made it impossible for him to stay by Gu Nianzhi's side 24 hours a day.
For some reason, he felt a little irritated.
Huo Shaoheng took out a pack of specially supplied cigarettes from the drawer, took one out, and held it in his hand. He lit it and took a puff.
Holding the cigarette between his fingers, Huo Shaoheng looked at the relationship chart on the computer and fell into deep thought.
Gu Nianzhi's assassination attempt this morning was actually related to her grandfather Song Haichuan's secret experiment from 17 years ago.
But 17 years ago, Gu Nianzhi was only two years old.
Huo Shaoheng shook his head and switched his hand to hold the cigarette. With his right hand, he used the mouse to cross out the line.
To Gu Nianzhi, she had nothing to do with the experiment from 17 years ago.
He was disturbed.
The other party's motive was actually very simple. It was because of the estate dispute between Gu Yanran and her that caused the other party to fall into a state of madness.
Therefore, Gu Nianzhi was determined to get the Gu family's assets.
Huo Shaoheng thought about it and picked up his phone to call Gu Nianzhi again.
Gu Nianzhi had just come out of the bathroom.
After soaking in a rose essential oil aromatic bath, Gu Nianzhi felt her tense cerebral cortex relax a lot, and her head didn't hurt as much.
Hearing her phone ring, and it was Huo Shaoheng's exclusive ringtone, she hesitated for a moment before walking over to pick up. "Huo Shao?"
Huo Shaoheng grunted. "Nianzhi, you're back in the dorm?"
The call connected, and Huo Shaoheng could see Gu Nianzhi's location. She was in her dorm.
Gu Nianzhi nodded and sat on the bed as she dried her wet hair with a towel. "Why are you calling so late at night? Is something the matter?"
Huo Shaoheng pursed his lips. "Something's the matter."
"Oh, go ahead then. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up. "Gu Nianzhi said politely. She climbed onto the bed with one leg and leaned against the edge.
"Were you okay this morning?" Huo Shaoheng finally asked about the attack Gu Nianzhi encountered that morning. "Were you injured?"
"I was fine. Professor He reacted quickly and saved me again." Gu Nianzhi smiled. "Last time in Germany, if it wasn't for Professor He, I wouldn't have made it back."
Huo Shaoheng replied calmly, "Yes, we should thank Professor He. But if he could solve these problems once and for all, that would be great. We analyzed that he might be aware of the gunman's background. "
Gu Nianzhi didn't speak for a long time.
She had the same suspicions and had even tested He Zhichu's reaction.
Although He Zhichu had retorted, Gu Nianzhi was certain that He Zhichu knew something.
But he had his concerns and didn't say it out loud.
Gu Nianzhi put down the towel she was drying her hair with and hesitated before saying, "Professor He said that the enemy only had one of those guns, so we don't have to worry."
Because the only gun had been blown to pieces.
Huo Shaoheng sat up straight. This was consistent with his reasoning.
His voice became deeper and had a magnetic quality to it. "… Professor He said it himself? How did he know that the enemy only had one gun? "
"I don't know either. I asked him, but he wouldn't tell me directly. I got anxious, so … so … ah, forget it. Since he doesn't want to tell me, I respect his decision. And I think it's better for me to find the truth myself. That way, I won't be biased. "
Besides, Gu Nianzhi knew her own temper and way of doing things. Even if He Zhichu told her everything, she would verify the truth herself.
Regarding her own life and lost memories, she couldn't just accept everything from someone else's words.
So to her, it didn't make much of a difference whether He Zhichu said it or not.
Huo Shaoheng understood what Gu Nianzhi meant. He also thought the same way. This was also why he didn't force He Zhichu to give a reason.
Because who knew if He Zhichu was telling the truth?
He was also used to finding the truth himself and wouldn't be led by the nose by other people's words.
He would only believe the truth if he found it himself.
Other people's words were at most a reference, and the credibility would be greatly reduced.
Gu Nianzhi had grown up with him, so her way of doing things had long been marked by him.
Thinking of this, Huo Shaoheng chuckled lightly and said gently, "Be careful. Call me if anything happens."
Gu Nianzhi nodded instinctively. "Okay."
After she hung up the phone, she regretted that she had agreed too quickly.
Putting the phone on the bedside table, Gu Nianzhi leaned against the edge of the bed and hung her hair to dry as she pondered.
Gu Nianzhi couldn't help praising herself for escaping from a gunshot after returning from danger in Germany. She was really lucky …
The other party must be furious, right?
He couldn't kill her no matter what …
Gu Nianzhi's heart skipped a beat. Reaching for the phone, she dialed Gu Yanran's number.
She could tell there was someone behind Gu Yanran. That person was smarter than Gu Yanran, more composed, and more well-hidden than her.
Gu Yanran had to be the one to dig that person out.
The phone rang twice before Gu Yanran answered. She asked solemnly, "Gu Nianzhi? Why are you calling me? "
Gu Nianzhi chuckled and deliberately said darkly, "Sister, you did something wrong. Aren't you afraid of ghosts knocking on your door? If I die today, the person calling you right now won't be human. Aren't you afraid at all? "
Gu Yanran's eyes narrowed, and she suddenly screamed. The phone was like a hot potato. She suddenly lost her grip and dropped it with a clatter on the floor.
Luckily, the iPhone was of good quality, so it didn't break after dropping it.
Gu Nianzhi heard the clatter and knew Gu Yanran had dropped the phone. She laughed and hung up.
After harassing Gu Yanran, Gu Nianzhi went to bed refreshed and fell asleep with a sweet heart.
She still had a lot of things to do tomorrow, so Gu Nianzhi planned to request another trial for the estate dispute case as soon as she woke up.
Her important witness, Ye Xuan, was already in place.
The Imperial Capital High People's Court accepted Gu Nianzhi's request and informed Gu Yanran and Jin Wanyi that the third trial for the estate dispute case would be next Monday.
…
It was already mid-November, and the weather in the Imperial Capital was getting drier and colder.
Life in the Prime Minister's official residence at 32 Willow Alley wasn't easy either.
The atmosphere in the Prime Minister's official residence plummeted just like the temperature.
That Saturday morning, Tan Dongbang and Tan Guiren sat in the dining room on the first floor of the Prime Minister's official residence to eat breakfast.
Tan Dongbang had lost a lot of weight these days. He had been impeached not long after taking office, so he was under a lot of pressure.
Tan Guiren knew her father was busy with work and her mother had returned to her parents' home, so she obediently didn't mention his impeachment case. She used a knife to butter Tan Dongbang's bread and placed it on his plate. "Daddy, eat breakfast."
"Thank you, Little Darling." Tan Dongbang's relationship with Cai Songyin wasn't as good as before, but he still loved his only daughter very much. "But Daddy can't eat. There's been too many things recently, and your Mommy isn't back yet. Those senators who brought up the impeachment case are too arrogant …"
Cai Songyin wasn't home these days, so Tan Dongbang didn't have anyone else to talk to, so he chattered endlessly to Tan Guiren.
Tan Guiren didn't really understand these things, but she obediently played the role of a competent listener.
Cai Songyin stood at the wooden door of the dining room and stared darkly at Tan Dongbang, who was eating breakfast with his head lowered.
However, when Tan Dongbang looked up and saw Cai Songyin, a smile quickly appeared on her face.
"Mommy! You're finally back?! Why aren't you coming in?! "Tan Guiren also saw Cai Songyin and quickly stood up. She picked up her dress and ran over to Cai Songyin.
Tan Dongbang sighed in relief when he saw Cai Songyin.
They had been married for many years. Although he was more harmonious in bed with Gu Yanran, that was mostly because of the novelty. If something really happened, the first person he wanted to discuss it with was still Cai Songyin.
"Songyin, you heard everything, right?" When he saw Cai Songyin, his expression dropped, and his entire face darkened. "What do you think we should do?"
"What should we do? Aren't you very close to Gu Yanran? "Cai Songyin snickered." Ask her for help … "
Tan Dongbang felt guilty and quickly said, "What do you mean close? If she didn't come to me herself, how could I … "
"How could I?" Cai Songyin glanced at him with a smile and waved at him. "Dongbang, come over here. I have something to ask you."
