"Honestly, I don't know."
The old dean laughed dryly and said, "Why don't you call it anonymous? All the formalities, including the confirmation letter and the thank you letter we sent, didn't show up when they signed it. What we finally got was the real money. , and a very... um... signature."
Gu Yan: "..."
very... um... what does it mean
The old dean also knew that the consortium behind this might be the key to them. He considered for a moment, then said: "How about this, I'll try to get you some original documents. Of course, the secret part can't be done, and I'm not so capable as an old man. But the confirmation letter I can still try things like thank you letters, do you need them?"
In this case, of course, the more clues the better.
Even if it's just a small clue.
"It can't be better, it's hard work." Gu Yan said.
Old Dean: "But it will take some time. I have to contact some old friends. I'm not sure if they are busy right now—"
He looked at the time, "—This point is probably either a meeting or dealing with troubles. You know, troubles are always very indifferent. If they don't come during the day, they like to pick them up at the end of get off work."
Maybe it was because they were in a dull mood, the old dean made a joke, and blinked at Gu Yan and Yan Suizhi like an old child.
Yan Suizhi smiled and followed the words: "I have a deep understanding, this is probably some kind of mysterious law of the world."
Mysterious laws are indeed widely used.
The old dean spent a lot of time contacting friends, and the communication indicated that he was busy.
"What am I talking about." The old dean shrugged and said helplessly, "Maybe they won't be able to spare until the evening."
Time flies much faster in Wine City than in Decama.
It seems that he just said a few words, dialed a few communication efforts, and the sky turned dark.
Qiao and Ke Jin finally came out of the closed room.
"I received a communication from Laura just now. She rubbed off on a friend's private cargo airline and will be here tonight." Qiao Chong, Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan shook their smartphones.
His voice became more hoarse.
"My God, you child." When the old dean heard his voice, he stuffed the untouched teacup, "Take two sips and moisten one, why are you so dumb."
Qiao took the good intentions, drank some slowly, and said, "It's okay, just talk a little more."
His expression was a little tired, and the bloodshot in his eyes hadn't disappeared. But the state is much better than before.
Gu Yan looked at him up and down, relieved a little, didn't say anything, just patted his shoulder.
Joe was all too familiar with the way his best friend cared, and said, "Don't worry, don't be crazy."
He handed the newly requested warm water to Ke Jin, watched the other party drink it slowly one by one, and said solemnly: "Some people who didn't understand before said that Ke Jin was very dependent on me, and I was supporting him. To be honest, there is a I was too narcissistic for a while, and thought so. But then I found out that he was actually supporting me…”
"When I contacted various friends before, I really couldn't control myself. My mind was full of yelling at the scavenger to fuck your ancestors, and my mind was full of rehearsing how to torture him if I found him, How to make him kneel down and cry and beg for mercy, how to make him go mad and out of control, helpless... how to kill him."
As Joe said, he was silent for a while, and then laughed sneeringly: "I have all this in my mind, and I'm not sure if I accidentally brought out a crazy word or two while chatting about communications."
So he stood in the corner the whole time and didn't look back for a long time.
"But when I saw his eyes, those crazy words couldn't come out."
As long as he looked at Ke Jin, the other person's clean and clean voice would sound in his mind, joking seriously: "—No, no, don't interfere with my logic. I'm angry, don't make trouble. I'm going to accept a piece of evidence. One slapped on the scumbag's face, fair and upright. You who 'lynched him in a sack' are pure rioters, don't mislead me."
…
I don't know how many similar words appeared in his mind one after another, and those crazy thoughts were drowned out little by little.
As long as Ke Jin is by his side, he can always calm down quickly, cheer up, and even try to laugh twice.
Then, things didn't seem so bad.
"I made a promise to him just now that I would collect all the evidence and nail that beast to the court in a fair and honest way. Waiting for him... When he recovers, maybe he will be happy and take off my rioter hat by the way."
…
Joe's friends, even if they're doing their best, will take a while to get results.
So they said goodbye to the old dean and planned to go to the residence first.
Qiao's taste in booking a hotel in the wine city is the same as that of Gu Yan. Usually, he also lives at Silver Tea on Cabbage Avenue. It is relatively quiet at night there, suitable for rest. But after the shepherd bird was brought out, he felt that it was too quiet there, but he was worried and booked a room in the most prosperous commercial area of the wine city.
When they said this, they were walking in the front yard of the orphanage.
Those young people who came to help had just rested at this time, chatting while loosening their muscles and preparing to go home.
Joshua Dale trotted over when he saw Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan. Originally, he was still scratching his head a little bit, but when he heard Qiao talking about the hotel, his eyes lit up, "Are you going to live in Shuangyue Street?"
"Yes." Gu Yan nodded.
"That's great. Double Moon Street is much closer to us..." Joshua Daller said. "Grandma Kitty wants to invite you to dinner, okay?"
"Grandmother Kitty?" Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan looked at each other and thought the name was a bit interesting, "You mean Ms. Kitty Bell, who lives next door to you?"
Joshua Dale nodded, "Well, that's her."
Yan Suizhi raised her eyebrows, "You're very powerful, so you kidnapped a grandma for yourself?"
"What is abduction!" Joshua Dallem's face flushed red and glared at Yan Suizhi.
Some days, Yan Suizhi can still make this little devil blushing and thick neck.
Joshua Daller saw that he couldn't say anything, and said, "Wait a minute."
He turned his head and ran outside the gate, dragging a person over.
It was a boy a few years older than him, but in the eyes of Yan Suizhi and the others, he was still a kid.
"Tell me." Joshua slapped the boy in front of everyone, and stood by himself as a supervisor.
"Uh... I'm Chester, I saw you last time." The boy's face was full of guilt when he saw Yan Suizhi, "That... Are your legs okay?"
Yan Suizhi: "Very good, why don't I let it say hello to you?"
Chester: "… "
Gu Yan: "..."
Hearing that someone started not talking again, Gu Yan said, "How's Ms. Kitty Bell doing?"
Chester was freed from the blushing and thick-necked No. 2 situation, and immediately said: "It's okay. I recovered very early, and I am very healthy now."
Gu Yan nodded.
"Yeah," Chester said, "Joshua told me you were here, and I told Grandma Kitty, she told me to come and invite you to dinner. As an apology for the last time I… splashed water, and Thank you for the case."
Seeing that Yan Suizhi and the others meant to refuse, Joshua Dale added: "Whether Chester can come in tonight and sleep depends on this dinner."
…
When they got to Kitty Bell's house, they noticed a big change.
The wall that originally separated Joshua and Kitty's house was cut open, and a door was erected that led directly to both sides, which was equivalent to merging the two houses into one.
The old lady who has been hurt and has been hospitalized has not changed her kindness. She brought the two brothers and sisters who also suffered from the case under her wing, and gave them an elder and a home to rely on.
But even if it was merged, the room was still not big. The dining table was an old-fashioned long table, which could barely accommodate everyone.
Whether it is Yan Suizhi, Gu Yan, Qiao or Ke Jin, they are all tall, and they are a little crowded when they sit down.
This kind of dining experience is almost never experienced by Yan Suizhi and the others. The only one who has such experience is Ke Jin. He had experienced this crowded atmosphere in the orphanage when he was a child, with his arms rubbing against his arms, and sometimes he couldn't let go of his hands. However, they had an unusually gentle and interesting aunt who took care of them, so those days were not too dark for him, and he even missed them occasionally.
Of course, these were just what Qiao and Gu Yan had heard from Ke Jin.
When he listened to it, Joe couldn't really understand the psychology of people who are crowded and happy. But now, they're sitting with their arms squeezed, and everyone's actually feeling pretty good.
Joshua Dale's sister Luo Xi squinted her eyes as soon as she saw Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan.
The little girl stayed by the door and didn't come in. After laughing at them, she turned her head and ran away. After a while, he rushed into the house in a hurry and put two candies in Yan Suizhi's palm, and then two candies in Gu Yan.
She was very unfamiliar with Qiao and Ke Jin, and she would not have paid attention to them in the past. But this time, she also stuffed them with sugar for the first time.
Joshua Daller commented: "The little girl is crazy."
No one can refuse the most direct and pure kindness that belongs to children.
However, when Luo Xi gave Ke Jin candy, the others were still sweating quietly. Such a sudden move can easily startle Ke Jin out of his own world, causing him to lose control of his emotions.
Ke Jin stared at the candy in the palm of his hand for a while before he could react.
He peeled one of them and put it in his mouth. After a while, the other was put into Joe's hand.
So... Master Qiao also went crazy with joy.
