Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi looked at the burning tanker together.
Professional firefighters had already started extinguishing the fire, and the driver of the tanker was taken to the side of the road for questioning.
He was completely shocked and no longer had the vigor he had when arguing with the auntie that morning. He wiped his tears and said, "Mr. Police, I really don't know what happened! I was driving just fine, and suddenly there was a problem. I took a look just now, and it seemed to be missing a wheel … The ground was slippery, so I really had no choice! "
Several traffic police stood to the side and recorded the cause of the accident.
The two cars that had been burned to the ground became the focus of the inspection.
Gu Nianzhi looked at her watch. "It's already 7: 30. I have my thesis at 8 …"
Huo Shaoheng turned on his Bluetooth headset and said a few words to his people before saying to Gu Nianzhi, "Let's go, I'll take you down."
He walked back to his car and started the engine to lead the way.
Gu Nianzhi then got into her own car and followed behind Huo Shaoheng's car as they drove down the highway.
Huo Shaoheng had a special ID, so he had no obstructions along the way. He quickly got off the highway and drove to the entrance of B University.
On the way, he received several calls regarding the investigation results of the Ishihara Corporation.
Later, he received a call from Yin Shixiong saying that he was already at Gu Nianzhi's dorm and asked when Huo Shao would be coming over …
Huo Shaoheng didn't want to see Yin Shixiong's face.
He had been single for so many years, and now that he suddenly had a girlfriend, he felt like he had lost weight.
Huo Shaoheng stopped at the entrance of B University and didn't follow them in. He called Gu Nianzhi. "Do your thesis well, and call me when you're done."
Gu Nianzhi stopped the car and asked, "… Huo Shao, do you need something?"
Huo Shaoheng nodded. "The results of the investigation are out. I'll go back to take a look."
Gu Nianzhi agreed and anxiously drove in alone.
…
He Zhichu had been waiting in the small conference room for the thesis for almost half an hour.
The lava volcano cake set that Gu Nianzhi had ordered was on the table, but she hadn't arrived yet.
The thesis would be in half an hour, so He Zhichu couldn't help but call Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi's car had just arrived at her dorm.
She picked up He Zhichu's call and smiled. "Don't worry, I'll be there soon. I just arrived at the dormitory. Wait for me to pack my things. "
He Zhichu was finally relieved. He turned on the wall TV in the small conference room as a backdrop.
This was the time of the morning news, and all the channels on the TV were broadcasting the same breaking news.
"… At around seven o 'clock this morning, there was a car accident on the Fourth Ring Expressway. The fuel tanker was hit by two cars on the expressway from the east and west respectively and caught on fire. Apart from the fact that all the people in the vehicle were killed on the spot, there were no other casualties. The cause of the accident is still under investigation. The insurance company and the police have arrived at the scene to deal with the matter. "
He Zhichu sat behind the long conference table in the small conference room and casually glanced at the TV.
Black smoke covered half of the sky from the burning oil tanker.
In such a scene, a bright red Ferrari sports car stood out.
He Zhichu was just about to look away when he saw the familiar Ferrari sports car. The corners of his eyes twitched.
This wasn't Gu Nianzhi's car?
The camera flickered, and he seemed to see the slim and graceful figure standing in front of the bright red Ferrari sports car. It seemed to be Gu Nianzhi …
…
Gu Nianzhi returned to her dorm. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Yin Shixiong pointing his phone at her and shouting, "Little Ze! Did you see that? Nianzhi just opened the door and came in! "
Ma Qiqi also rushed over and grabbed Gu Nianzhi's hand. "Nianzhi, are you okay? What Big Xiong said just now scared me. I always said he was exaggerating! "
"I'm fine. Brother Xiong just likes to exaggerate." Gu Nianzhi shielded her face with her hand and smiled. "Brother Xiong, what are you doing?"
"I'm broadcasting live!" Yin Shixiong looked up at her with a smile and said to the phone, "Little Ze, do you want to talk to Nianzhi?"
Gu Nianzhi walked over and looked in front of him.
"Brother Ze?" Gu Nianzhi waved at the phone in surprise. "Long time no see!"
Zhao Liangze carefully looked at Gu Nianzhi and saw that she was wearing a short sapphire blue down jacket. It wasn't bloated like a down jacket and looked very handsome.
"Nianzhi, are you okay?" Zhao Liangze greeted her. "We all saw the car accident this morning. The three of us were so scared we almost jumped out!"
Gu Nianzhi smiled and shook her head. "I'm fine. Sorry to make you guys worry."
Yin Shixiong ran to the door and poked his head out to look. "Oh? Nianzhi, where's Huo Shao? "
Gu Nianzhi shook her head. "He left. Do you have any misunderstandings about Huo Shao being a workaholic?"
"Oh? He went back? " Yin Shixiong scratched his head and awkwardly tried to save Huo Shaoheng. "It's almost the end of the year. He's really busy."
Ma Qiqi tugged at Yin Shixiong to stop him from talking.
Gu Nianzhi smiled and went into her room to change out of her jeans and into a light gray wool suit. She came out and said, "I'm going to my thesis defense. It's starting in ten minutes. What about you guys?"
Yin Shixiong immediately said, "You go defend. I don't understand your thesis anyway. I'll wait for you here." He even winked at her as he spoke.
Gu Nianzhi knew he wanted to spend more time with Ma Qiqi. She smiled and nodded. She put her hand on Ma Qiqi's shoulder. "Qiqi, you have to treat Brother Xiong well for me. I'll be going now! "
Ma Qiqi quickly said, "Nianzhi, I want to go with you! I want to hear your thesis defense! "
"No need. I'll be so nervous if you go." Gu Nianzhi smiled as she pushed her back. She grabbed her laptop bag and left the dorm alone to rush to the small conference room where the thesis defense would be held.
She received a call from He Zhichu on the way.
Gu Nianzhi smiled. "Professor He, I'm already here. I'm on my way. I'll be there in a minute."
He Zhichu suppressed his anger. "Nianzhi, did you get into a car accident this morning?"
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
"No. Why do you ask?" Gu Nianzhi decided to play dumb with He Zhichu. He might not know what Huo Shaoheng knew anyway.
"I watched TV." He Zhichu enunciated each word carefully. "Are you okay? Did you get a fright? "
Gu Nianzhi's lips twitched in amusement. "Professor He, I'm fine! I was driving over, but the driver of the fuel truck was probably tired. One of his wheels flew off and hit my car. "
He Zhichu frowned nervously. "Are you really okay? If you're not feeling well, we can reschedule the thesis defense. "
"I'm fine. My driving skills are top-notch. I'm comparable to a Formula F4 driver! Even if I don't say I'm good at it, I'm good at it! " Gu Nianzhi spoke enthusiastically. She didn't show any signs of "stress trauma." She didn't seem to be traumatized at all.
He Zhichu was relieved to see that she was fine. He didn't want to hear her brag, so he hung up.
Gu Nianzhi breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat off her forehead.
She had managed to fool He Zhichu.
But how could she have known that the two sedan cars that crashed into the oil tanker on the TV belonged to Japan's Ishihara Corporation?!
He Zhichu was no stranger to the Ishihara Corporation. Ishihara Taro, who had just transferred from Japan, was the heir to the corporation.
He thought about it and temporarily turned off the TV to avoid affecting Gu Nianzhi's thesis defense.
The professors who were preparing for the thesis defense walked in one after another. They were all chatting about the car accident on the highway that day.
A professor said, "I just came from the faculty. They just received a call from the police asking if Ishihara Taro was a student from our faculty. Turns out he was one of the victims in the car accident."
"Ishihara Taro?" He Zhichu remembered that the TV said that the two cars belonged to the Ishihara Corporation, so he didn't find it strange anymore.
"Yeah, tsk tsk. What a pity. The Ishihara family has only had one son for three generations. He'll be the last! "
"So be it!" A female professor snickered. "Serves him right! The Ishihara family isn't some prestigious family. Don't think we'll forget their war crimes just because they invested some money in our country … "
"Let's not talk about it anymore." The male professor who expressed his pity had studied in Japan before. He didn't want to hear such words and began to smooth things over.
He Zhichu pretended not to hear the two of them arguing. He only said, "Classmate Gu will be here soon. This is the volcano cake combo that she prepared for everyone. Please help yourselves."
As he spoke, Gu Nianzhi pushed the door open and came in. She bowed to all the professors. "Hello, everyone. I'm Gu Nianzhi."
…
Gu Nianzhi's thesis defense was proceeding nervously. Huo Shaoheng was also in a meeting.
Once Ishihara Taro and Ishihara Wakashi were dead, Huo Shaoheng predicted that the Ishihara Corporation would be in chaos once the news reached Japan.
He was listening to the reports from the field personnel.
"Huo Shao, we finally found out that the Ishihara Corporation and the Angel in the World Foundation are indeed in contact."
