Dell drove Chen Zhao home. His face was still full of resentment.
"Chen, I'm very angry right now. How can you be so worried about me? I thought we were friends."
"If I didn't treat you as a friend, I wouldn't have treated Faith's eyes."
"But you can tell me openly that you can treat Faith's eyes instead of acting like a thief."
"And then? Then you can announce to the world that someone can treat a blind person's eyes? "
"Isn't that good?"
"No, not at all. The treatment is very complicated and it's not unlimited."
"Fine, I promise you … No, I swear in the name of God that I won't tell anyone, including Tsura."
"I want you to swear in the name of your genitals, not in the name of God. You've done a lot of blasphemous things."
"Fine, I swear …"
At the door, Dell got out of the car and gave Chen Zhao a big hug.
"Chen, thank you. Meeting you is the luckiest thing in my life."
Chen Zhao pushed Dell away. "Don't be so ambiguous."
Chen Zhao waved his hand. "Take care of Faith."
"Chen … When did you treat me as a friend?"
"When you didn't ask me to treat your penis."
…
When Chen Zhao returned home, Fali was still waiting for him in the living room.
"Chen, how did it go?"
"It went well. Nothing happened."
Smiling, Chen Zhao hugged Fali's slender waist and stroked it gently.
Fali's breathing was a bit heavy …
Before leaving, Chen Zhao had already done it for two hours. After returning, he started again.
Fali was speechless at Chen Zhao's exuberant energy.
At night —
Chen Zhao was woken up by the phone. Fali woke up too.
"You sleep. I'll take the call." Chen Zhao calmed Fali down and walked out of the bedroom.
"Hey, Gaia?"
"Chen, I'm at your door."
"What? You want to rob me? "
"Anderson's in trouble. I need your help."
"What happened to him?"
"He went to fight in an underground boxing match and got heavily injured."
"Wait, let me put on my clothes." Chen Zhao couldn't care about his appearance now.
In the gym, Chen Zhao had a good impression of Anderson.
He was a man who cared about his family very much. It was said that he raised his child alone.
Every time Chen Zhao invited him for a drink after training, Anderson would politely decline.
His reason was that he was going to pick up his child and that he was honest and sincere.
"Fali, there's a patient who needs my help. I need to go out for a while."
"Do you need a ride?"
"No need. You sleep. My friend is waiting for me outside."
"Then be careful."
Chen Zhao took his toolbox and walked out of his house. He saw Gaia's car parked outside.
Chen Zhao felt that he really needed to get a driver's license. Otherwise, it would be very inconvenient to have someone pick him up every time.
He felt even more uncomfortable when Fali had to drive at night.
After boarding Gaia's car, Chen Zhao immediately asked, "Where's Anderson now?"
"In my gym."
"Why didn't you send him to the hospital?"
Gaia glanced at him. "He's an illegal immigrant."
"Huh?" Chen Zhao did not expect this, but he remembered that the man was white.
Most illegal immigrants in America were Asians, Latinos, and African Americans. Latinos were the most numerous. After all, they lived close to each other.
"He has Latino and German ancestry, but his ancestral home is Mexico. He's been in America for four years."
"Are you close to Anderson?"
"I brought him to America from Mexico."
"What's your relationship with him?"
"He's the brother of one of my students. After I brought him here, I arranged for him to be a coach in my gym."
"But why is he fighting underground?"
"He wants to get a legal identity for his son. He needs a lot of money."
Chen Zhao finally understood why Anderson could train with Gaia.
With Anderson's family situation, he probably did not have the money to hire Gaia as a coach.
After all, Chen Zhao had to pay Gaia a few thousand dollars a month. It was not a small amount.
The car stopped below the gym. The entire building was pitch-black.
Just then, a figure descended from the sky.
Bang!
Both Gaia and Chen Zhao were dumbfounded.
"Anderson!" Gaia was the first to react. He quickly rushed forward, but Anderson was already dead.
Standing beside Gaia, Chen Zhao shook his head. "He can't be saved."
He had died too thoroughly. Chen Zhao did not even have time to save him.
He saw a person he was close with fall from the sky and die in front of him.
Chen Zhao was in a terrible mood. Gaia's expression was unreadable. Expressionlessly, she called the police.
Not long after, the police arrived. It was the police from Leonardo's station.
Although it was not Melson who led the team, Chen Zhao had interacted with them a few times.
Chen Zhao and Gaia were both brought back to the station and given statements.
Because Gaia's car had a car recorder, they were not suspects.
Gaia told Chen Zhao most of the truth, but Chen Zhao didn't know anything at all.
Early in the morning, Chen Zhao and Gaia left the station.
Anderson's death report was also out. It was suicide.
Chen Zhao did not understand what kind of pressure would make Anderson do such a thing.
Once upon a time, Chen Zhao was also a homeless outsider.
If he hadn't met Ethan back then, perhaps he would have chosen the same path as Ethan.
Surviving in this country was no less difficult than surviving in the wild.
It was even more difficult to live a good life.
Without any skills, he would most likely end up on the streets.
"He has a child, right?" Chen Zhao asked.
"I plan to adopt that child." Gaia's eyes were empty.
"Doesn't that child have an uncle?"
"Dead. He died on the battlefield."
"If there's anything you need me to do, call me."
Gaia glanced at Chen Zhao and nodded.
Just then, Chen Zhao's phone rang. It was Ethan. "Chen, there's a client. The address is."
After informing Gaia, Chen Zhao rushed to the client's address. It was an old client.
It was Dailey Simpson and her stepdaughter Ville. When Chen Zhao saw the address, he thought of the mother and daughter.
When Chen Zhao knocked on Dailey's door, he saw a similar scene.
The living room was a mess. Dailey had a bruise on her forehead and her stepdaughter Ville was sitting on the sofa.
