"Plummer and Sandra are both gamblers and drug addicts. They owe a lot of money," Leonardo said. Leonardo said, "And a year ago, when Lynn disappeared, they actually paid off most of their debts. Of course, a year has passed, and they owe a lot of money again."
"I still don't understand what this has to do with Lynn's bad relationship with them."
"I went to the bank to check their accounts. In September last year, they suddenly received a transfer of $500,000."
"I still don't understand."
"They sold their daughter."
In the end, Leonardo still told him the truth.
Chen Zhao gasped. It was hard to imagine something like selling a daughter.
Moreover, it happened to an adult who already had his own consciousness. It was hard to imagine such a thing happening.
It was hard to imagine. "Who bought her? Don't tell me it's an organization that sells women to Europe? "
"I don't know. It's an anonymous account. I can't find any more information, but it shouldn't be that kind of organization. At least, when Lynn came back last month, there were no records of her leaving or entering the country."
"Whatever. It has nothing to do with me." Chen Zhao shook his head.
He now somewhat understood why Lynn would treat her parents like that.
She didn't even shed a single tear for their deaths.
Then he thought about it. Her parents were both gamblers and drug addicts.
What kind of environment would she grow up in?
Don't say that no matter what, they would always be her parents.
People who could say something like that were easy to say.
For example, there was a local talk show host with the surname Zhou. Her biological parents had sold her to someone else when she was young.
When she grew up, she had to recognize her biological parents and ask the grown-up girl to pay for a house for her son.
But this Zhou guy said that she would only recognize adoptive parents and not biological parents. The girl was ungrateful.
However, reality also proved that this Zhou guy was using a moral standard that he didn't even have to ask the girl to be a ridiculous moral standard.
As the saying went, "If you betray me, I won't shed a tear for you."
This was about love, but it could also be used to refer to other emotions.
However, this also made Chen Zhao feel that he should treat Gerlyn and the unborn child better.
Fali was also listening to Chen Zhao and Leonardo's conversation.
Chen Zhao and Fali exchanged glances and smiled knowingly.
There was no need for too many words. One look was enough.
"I'm leaving. Every time I see the two of you making eye contact, my heart feels stifled. When can I find my other half?"
After Leonardo left, Chen Zhao called again.
"Chen, I have a client. Fifty thousand dollars."
"Ok, send me the address."
Chen Zhao picked up his toolbox, kissed Fali goodbye, and left.
While driving, Chen Zhao looked at the address Ethan had sent.
"Why is it in the suburbs? It's so far away. "
The journey alone took more than an hour. When Chen Zhao arrived at the designated location, there were no houses around. There wasn't even a car.
"F * ck me, could it be that I've been fooled?"
There were weeds all around, and as far as the eye could see, it was all dark yellow rock fragments. There was almost no green at all.
Just as he was about to leave, a car came from behind and stopped beside him.
A bald old man got out of the car and walked up to Chen Zhao. "Hello, are you Mr. Chen?"
"I am. Who's this?"
"I'm Stellan. My boss sent me to take you to see him."
"Your boss? Where is he? "
"Because my boss can't meet people, we gave him a fake address. Please follow me," Stellan said. "Take my car."
"What about my car? Just here? "
"No one will come here," Stellan said. "Don't worry about losing your car."
"Okay."
Chen Zhao got into Stellan's car and realized that there were two people in the backseat.
"Mr. Chen, because my boss has a special identity, it's not convenient for outsiders to know his location, so I need your cooperation."
"How?" Chen Zhao asked.
"Please put on this mask."
The backseat person gave Chen Zhao a black mask. Chen Zhao frowned. "This isn't part of our agreement. I've never accepted such a ridiculous request."
"Mr. Chen, please understand."
"I don't understand," Chen Zhao said. "I won't meet your boss. Please stop the car."
"I can increase the price. How about $100,000?"
Chen Zhao still refused. "I don't need this client."
"Two hundred thousand."
Chen Zhao hesitated, but he still shook his head. "I refuse."
Two hundred thousand dollars was indeed a lot of money.
However, covering his eyes would make Chen Zhao feel very insecure.
The two people in the backseat looked at him with evil intentions.
"How about this? I can allow you to go with your eyes open, but that place is a bit special. After you go in, you have to listen to my arrangements."
Chen Zhao thought about it and nodded. "Sure."
As long as he didn't cover his head, everything was fine.
Stellan didn't let the two Weapon Xs in the backseat fight because he was worried that they would go too far.
After all, Weapon Xs were all killing techniques. He was really afraid that they would kill Chen Zhao.
Right now, the lab was lacking manpower. Stellan didn't want the newbie to be in trouble before he could do anything.
Chen Zhao looked out the window. The place he'd stopped at was already very remote.
However, it was even more remote. There weren't any buildings along the way.
Chen Zhao thought that Stellan's boss was some escaped criminal, which was why he hid in such a remote place.
Just then, the car stopped, but there was still nothing around.
"We're here," Stellan said.
"Here? Where is it? "
Just then, the gravel ground in front of them suddenly split open, revealing a tunnel.
"So high-tech. What do you do here?" Chen Zhao asked curiously.
"Lab," Stellan said. "We need to go through the disinfection tunnel later, so we need your cooperation."
"Okay."
Chen Zhao didn't think too much about it. He looked around.
Stellan brought Chen Zhao into an isolation room and gestured at the camera inside.
Whoosh, whoosh —
A large amount of gas suddenly sprayed out from the top of the isolation room.
Chen Zhao pinched his nose. He felt that his mind was a bit slow.
Then a strong wave of drowsiness hit him.
"Oh no …" Chen Zhao reacted, but it was too late. He fell to the ground with a thud.
A few people came in. Stellan looked at Chen Zhao on the ground. "Impressive. He can actually last ten seconds. That can even hypnotize an elephant."
"Dr. Stellan, is it because he's strong?"
