Lin Jie settled Mo En down and went down from the second floor. He went out to check if there were any obvious traces left at the scene.
Thanks to the puddles on the street that had not completely receded, the blood stains were all washed away.
Lin Jie checked the surroundings out of caution. Overall, there should not be anything particularly noteworthy.
The child had escaped without any hesitation, and there was no sign of anyone chasing after him.
Fortunately, the street itself was remote enough, and there were not many people living there. No one else noticed what had happened here.
After the popularity of the large-scale gas explosion case died down, people's curiosity was satisfied, and the street became more deserted than before. It was a mess, and no one wanted to come here.
Lin Jie came back. He took down the blood-stained white coat hanging on the recliner and prepared to get rid of it. At the same time, he dialed the one and only number left on his communication device.
The number was not saved, but it was left by the first customer he received when he first came to Nuo Jin to open the bookstore.
It was also because of that customer that he got rid of his identity as an illegal resident, and allowed the bookstore to have the legal qualifications to operate properly. He also provided him with a lot of help.
And this was only in return for Lin Jie's advice and recommendation of a book.
Although at that time, Lin Jie was just casually comforting him and habitually feeding him chicken soup, according to the other party's attitude, it seemed to be a conversation that was enough to change his life. Remember the URL: m.9biquge.com.
Moreover, Lin Jie did need help the most at that time.
Therefore, the other party was grateful to him as if he was his savior, and Lin Jie chose to accept it.
In fact, if not for this, Lin Jie might not have linked the recommendation book to psychological counseling as often as he did now. However, to him, it was indeed a happy thing to be able to develop two interests together.
This number was said to be on standby 24/7. No matter how much time had passed, no matter when Lin Jie needed help, as long as he used this communication device to call, he would definitely get a reply.
And as long as there was a reply, he would do his best to help Lin Jie solve the problem.
However, Lin Jie hadn't fought even once in the past three years.
On the one hand, he didn't want to trouble others. After all, in his opinion, the other party's help in solving the problem of illegal immigrants was enough to make up for the debt of gratitude.
On the other hand, it was true that he had not encountered much trouble. In the three years since he had transmigrated, he had opened a bookstore and brought warmth and care to his customers every few days. His life had been very smooth.
However, now that he had recruited a new employee, he had to provide her with conditions that would allow her to work in the store with peace of mind.
Although the girl who had just been given a new name had not clearly stated her decision, in reality, Lin Jie was already certain that the child would definitely stay.
He had never made a mistake when it came to psychological control.
The call was quickly connected.
An unfamiliar voice came from within. It belonged to a female and was very respectful, but also somewhat cold. It was as if one could imagine a serious and serious head maid.
"Hello, Mr. Lin."
"Hello …" Lin Jie thought for a moment and dug out the source of this unique voice from his distant memory. He said, "You are the maid who took Cherry back at that time."
"Yes, you can call me Bella. It's my honor to be remembered by you. I followed the master's order and have been waiting for your call for three years. Do you want me to help you wake the master up?"
"No, no need. Let her sleep."
Lin Jie finished taking care of the clothes and walked out of the basement. The sky outside seemed to be a little bright.
Unknowingly, almost half a night had passed since he woke up and settled down the girl he had picked up.
He then cleaned up the traces in the bookstore. However, it was difficult to clean up the bloodstains on the recliner, so he chose to give up temporarily.
However, since the old recliner was stained with some dark bloodstains, it wasn't too obvious.
Bella still maintained a very professional tone. She said, "Okay, then I will tell the master when she wakes up. Do you have any orders? According to the agreement, all your requests will be our first priority. "
She was still so exaggerated …
Maybe it was because she came from a business background, so she attached great importance to promises and gratitude. Her attitude was also exaggerated in the beginning. Unexpectedly, three years later, it didn't change at all.
If one thought about the interval of three years, it could be said that her attitude was even worse.
"I saved a little girl of unknown origin … Well, you can check the fire in the area between the 20th and 50th streets. I need to give her a new identity to cover up."
"Please wait for a moment."
Bella was silent for a moment. It seemed that she was checking according to Lin Jie's words.
Then she said, "I understand. But this is a little troublesome. You may have to wait for a few days. Please forgive us. We will send someone to serve you at that time."
Lin Jie nodded and then sighed. He said, "Hearing your familiar voice, I feel like nothing has changed even though three years have passed."
Bella said blandly, "It's true that nothing has changed for you. But for us, these three years have been earth-shaking changes. But there is one thing that hasn't changed. Our gratitude and admiration for you have not changed."
"Our master has been missing you. He hopes to listen to your teachings again. But you haven't contacted us, so our master doesn't dare to take the initiative to ask you."
"If you don't mind, I represent our master to ask for your permission to visit you again."
Hearing her say this, Lin Jie felt an inexplicable sense of guilt.
However, he didn't want to cause trouble for her, but why did it seem that he had let her down … How could she still expect others to cause trouble for her?
Alas, he couldn't figure it out. Forget it.
Lin Jie shook his head and sighed. He said, "Of course. You are welcome to visit my bookstore at any time. Just like three years ago, I also look forward to meeting Cherry after three years."
After Bella said goodbye to him respectfully, Lin Jie hung up and shook his head. He still felt that this little girl valued him too much at that time.
It was not a good thing to worship and even deify an imperfect person at such an immature age.
He had to have a good talk with her the next time she came.
Lin Jie put away the communication device. It was almost dawn outside. He wanted to go out and buy another bed, but the TV in the video store next door was on as usual. It reported the unfortunate news that the nearby shopping mall was temporarily closed.
His gaze fell on the small electric saw placed in the corner, and he thought to himself, 'It seems that I have to do it myself again.'
