Knock, knock —
Just then, the police outside the cell knocked on the iron bars with their batons.
"Someone outside wants to see you," the police said coldly.
Nanston Kira tidied his clothes.
Although he was wearing a prison uniform, he still paid attention to his appearance.
Nanston Kira came to a single room.
It was different from the visiting room where he'd met the lawyer last time.
Nanston Kira keenly sensed that it wasn't his lawyer who'd asked to see him.
Just then, a young man walked in from the other side.
A young man with a smile as warm as the sun.
Nanston Kira looked the young man up and down.
He was cultured, young and handsome, dressed in style, and treated people humbly.
That was what Nancy Kira felt from him.
"Hello, Professor Nanston. Please sit."
"Hello, who are you? Do we know each other? "Nanston Kira had a good impression of the man.
However, he was still instinctively wary.
After all, he knew that he'd angered Chen Zhao.
Who knew what Chen Zhao would do to him?
Perhaps the young man in front of him was sent by Chen Zhao to tease him.
It was even possible that they had arranged an even bigger trap for him.
"My name is Vincent. I want to hire you to work for my boss."
"Sorry, you should be able to tell that I can't work for anyone right now."
"That's not a problem," Vincent said with a smile. "You just have to answer, accept, or reject. Nothing else matters."
"I'm curious," Vincent said, smiling. "How can I serve your boss now?"
"If you accept, I'll be responsible for taking you out of the prison. If you reject, pretend I never came today."
"Since you can find me here, you should know who I offended. Do you still have the confidence to let me leave the prison?"
"Of course I have my ways."
Vincent took out a document with a smile and pushed it in front of Nanston Kira.
"If you agree, sign your name on this contract. Of course, you can also put your fingerprint on it."
Nanston Kira picked up the contract and looked at it carefully.
The style of the contract was rather strange.
Many of the words were rather old too.
Nanston Kira rubbed the contract with his fingers. It wasn't the regular rice paper.
"Are you sure this contract has legal effect?"
The contract required him to work for Vincent's boss for thirty years as an employee.
Research some special projects for Vincent's boss and are not allowed to refuse.
This was very irregular. Nangston Kira could not help but wonder if this contract was meaningful.
"Of course the boss has his ways to restrict you. Professor Nanston, you should understand that most of the time, the law can't restrict everything. For example, your enemy has money and power, so he can decide whether you live or die."
Although these words were very hurtful, Nancy Kira understood that Vincent's words were actually very tactful.
In front of the truly rich, his resistance was indeed futile.
"Then how do I know that he didn't hire you to tease me?"
"I can't prove it." Vincent spread out his hands and said, "But for you, there's no other choice now. Either you choose to spend the rest of your life in a dark prison, or you accept my kindness. Anyway, your situation can't get any worse, can it?"
"I want to know, what does your boss want me to do? The contract did not state your boss's intentions. "
"Of course it's to use your professional knowledge to study marine biology."
"There are many experts in marine biology. I'm not the best."
"No, in some fields, you're the best. At least that's what Homesius once said about you."
Nancy Kira suddenly widened her eyes and looked at Vincent in shock.
"Homesius? Does he also work for your boss? "
"Once." Vincent said indifferently, "Regardless of our falling out, he and his wife destroyed my boss's research and ran away with the research data."
Vincent added, "But during our cooperation, Homesius said more than once that if it were you, you would have already achieved results."
"No matter how beautiful your words are, you can't hide the fact that I'm actually Homesius's substitute."
"No, not substitute, it's replace." Vincent corrected Nancy Kira's cognitive bias. "Even before we fell out, he didn't research results that satisfied my boss. So even if Homesius didn't fall out with us, we had to terminate our cooperation."
"It doesn't say how I'll be treated."
"How much is your original income? My boss can give you ten times the treatment."
"I don't just want money."
"Then what else do you want?"
"Take revenge on that Chinese for me."
"Sorry, the boss won't go to war with him for you. If you think you have the ability, you can go yourself." Vincent refused directly.
"Your boss is only so-so. He's actually afraid of that Chinese."
"You're not worth it for my boss to go to war with that Chinese. At least for now, you're far from worth it."
"What if I can prove my worth?"
"Then we'll talk about it when you prove your worth."
"I can create unimaginable wealth for your boss," Nancy Kira said.
"When money reaches a certain level, there's no essential difference between a billion dollars and ten billion dollars. My boss isn't so superficial to pursue wealth."
"Hehe … rich people are all so hypocritical."
Back then, Nancy Kira had seen rich people for research funding, a lot of rich people.
And rich people always said that when money reached a certain level, it was only a difference in numbers.
In fact, these rich people were still pursuing even greater wealth with no regard for their own safety.
"Then what's your answer? Accept? Or refuse? "
"I accept," Nancy Kira said. "You also said that this is my last chance."
Nancy Kira signed her name on the contract.
"Wise choice." Vincent smiled brightly. "You won't regret your decision."
"Then when can I leave here?" Nancy Kira asked.
"Tonight," Vincent said.
"Tonight? Are you guys that efficient? Can you get the police to release me tonight? "
"Maybe not get the police to release you."
"Bail? My bail is very high. "
"Hehe … you don't need to worry about that. You just need to be prepared. I'll come pick you up tonight."
