Huo Shaoheng was speechless for a moment. He lowered his head to look at Gu Nian Zhizang's aggrieved expression, pursed his lips, and asked casually: "Where are you going to get up?"
"Go to the bathroom..." Gu Nianzhi said dullly, "Put me down and I'll go by myself."
Huo Shaoheng still carried her to the bathroom door, turned on the bathroom light for her, and then put her down.
Gu Nianzhi pushed open the bathroom door, walked in without looking back, then closed the door with a bang and locked himself in the bathroom.
She walked to the washbasin and stood there, looking at herself in the mirror without any reaction for a long time.
Gu Nianzhi once read in a book that people will have a profound enlightenment at the critical moment of life and death, and they will look away and let go of many things that they could not let go of before.
And after this time, have you looked away and let go
But she didn't want to look away or let go...
Gu Nianzhi stretched out his finger and wrote on the mirror in front of him.
She thought she did it unconsciously, but after she finished writing, she realized that she still wrote the words "Huo Shaoheng".
Such a self, such feelings, even myself feel scared, let alone Huo Shaoheng
He must have been forced into a corner by himself, right
Gu Nianzhi didn't want this. She didn't want to see her becoming more and more dependent on Huo Shaoheng, nor did she want to make more and more demands on him. If this continued, she was worried that their relationship would one day be exhausted...
She stayed in the bathroom for nearly an hour, still wondering what she was going to do.
She couldn't let go.
But if you continue, who knows what you will become in the future
Fierce emotions will completely change a person until he is beyond recognition.
After not coming out for such a long time, Huo Shaoheng, a patient person like him, couldn't bear it anymore. He knocked on the door and called her: "Nianzhi? Nianzhi? How are you? Are you asleep?"
She was worried that Gu Nianzhi had fallen asleep in the bathtub. Such a thing could be big or small, but it was very dangerous anyway.
Gu Nianzhi was still standing in front of the bathroom mirror. When she heard Huo Shaoheng's knock on the door, she came back to her senses. Looking at herself in the mirror, she vaguely remembered the famous saying of the heroine Scarlett in "Gone with the Wind": "Tomorrow will be again." a new day."
Yes, tomorrow, tomorrow she will figure out how to get along with Huo Shaoheng.
After opening the bathroom door and walking out, Gu Nianzhi said to Huo Shaoheng seriously: "Master Huo, there is something else I forgot to tell you. Do you remember that Yoko Yamaguchi? This time it was she who wanted your lives, but later She held Gu Yanran hostage, but she killed her and her body fell into the sea."
Huo Shaoheng was startled again, "Yoko Yamaguchi? Not Aiko Yamaguchi?"
Gu Nianzhi: "...Maybe Yamaguchi Aiko and Yamaguchi Yoko are the same person..."
She remembered that Huo Shaoheng and the others were chasing Yamaguchi Aiko this time, and later found out that she should have taken advantage of the trouble with Prime Minister Dou to fish in troubled waters and leave the Chinese Empire.
By coincidence, they met a woman who called herself Yoko Yamaguchi in the Blue Cave waters near Barbados.
Comparing the two, it doesn't take much intelligence to see the connection between the two.
Yoko Yamaguchi should not be dead, so the sister who calls herself "Yoko Yamaguchi" and wants to avenge her sister, Aiko Yamaguchi, cannot stand.
"She exposed herself without knowing it." Gu Nianzhi covered his mouth with a tired face and yawned, "Okay, Mr. Huo, I've said everything that needs to be said. Aren't you sleepy? Go back to sleep, I'm sleepy died."
Huo Shaoheng's eyes followed her figure until she got on the bed, pulled up the quilt, and lay down with her back to the outside of the bed.
The lights in the bedroom were turned off, and everything faded into darkness.
Huo Shaoheng stood quietly in the dark for a while, and finally went out quietly.
When he left Gu Nianzhi's bedroom, he didn't feel sleepy at all.
Gu Nianzhi was in a bad mood. He noticed it and knew the reason. But now that it was over, what could he do
Trying to coax Gu Nianzhi with all kinds of nonsensical sweet words might make her happy, but he couldn't do it himself.
Today, bowing down to Gu Nianzhi and begging him gently was the limit of what he could do.
Huo Shaoheng walked a few steps in the corridor, turned a corner, and saw Yin Shixiong leaning against the wall of the corridor with his arms folded.
"Chief." When Yin Shixiong saw Huo Shaoheng approaching, he hurriedly stood at attention and saluted.
"Well." Huo Shaoheng walked forward calmly and asked him: "Can't you sleep? What are you doing here?"
"I just went to see Ozawa. He is much better." Yin Shixiong followed Huo Shaoheng downstairs, "Master Huo, are we going back to the hotel, or are we staying here?"
Huo Shaoheng stopped and thought for a moment, then turned to look at Yin Shixiong, "Do you want to go have a drink?"
"Drink? Okay!" Yin Shixiong suddenly beamed, "I know the restaurant here has good rum, how about it? I also have some good Cuban cigars..."
As he spoke, he coughed twice with a wink, and asked tentatively: "Master Huo, I heard that you quit smoking?"
Huo Shaoheng patted him on the shoulder and said, "You will not be killed if you exchange smoke."
Yin Shixiong took out his treasured private goods in one second and said with a flattering smile: "Master Huo, here are the cigars. You have a lot of them, please spare me this time!"
Huo Shaoheng grabbed his shoulders and pulled him to the bar of the restaurant on the first floor, "Go find rum." He lowered his head and skillfully cut off the cigar head with a blade, put it on the silver cigar head, and held it between his fingers. Take a deep breath.
Yin Shixiong came out with a rum and saw Huo Shaoheng sitting on the high stool opposite the bar, holding his head in one hand and holding a cigar in the other. Smoke curled between his fingers. He just stared at the cigar butt, not smoking much.
"Master Huo, are you in a bad mood?" Yin Shixiong asked tentatively, pouring a glass of blueberry rum for Huo Shaoheng and pushing it over.
The alcohol was not high in alcohol, just like fruit wine. Huo Shaoheng took it and took a sip. He shook his head and calmly denied: "No, I'm thinking about my actions the day after tomorrow."
"Are you talking about going to the hospital to see Gu Xiangwen?" Yin Shixiong perked up, "But will Ozawa recover the day after tomorrow?"
Zhao Liangze was in charge of their actions, and could be said to be the most important manpower below Huo Shaoheng.
If he doesn't go, the effectiveness of their actions will be reduced by at least half.
Huo Shaoheng put out his cigar in the ashtray and said calmly: "Ozawa doesn't need to go out. It should be no problem to arrange things in the middle here."
People who work in their profession don't care about life and death, let alone being fainted due to lack of oxygen
"That's true." Yin Shixiong nodded, took a sip of wine, smoked a few puffs of cigar, and said with emotion: "Master Huo, Nianzhi really opened my eyes today. She can really fight. If she doesn't join the army, It’s a shame to follow us.”
"Huh?" Huo Shaoheng's movements paused for a moment, but he had always been calm and calm. When he was sitting, he was as still as a mountain. Yin Shixiong's drunkenness was on the rise again. While he was gulping down the clouds and puffing up the mist, he did not notice Huo Shaoheng's subtlety. Actions.
He thought to himself and said excitedly: "Thanks to her today! If it were me, Mr. Huo, you and Ozawa would definitely be reimbursed for the plague in the blue hole sea area today!"
"Really? Let's talk about it." Huo Shaoheng held a wine glass in one hand with a calm expression. He stretched out his long legs and leaned against the bar with his upper body, feeling indescribably relaxed and leisurely.
But this deliberate state cannot confuse Yin Shixiong.
He has followed Huo Shaoheng for so many years and understands his emotional changes very well.
After hesitating for a while, Yin Shixiong decided to help Gu Nianzhi. He poured another glass of wine for Huo Shaoheng and continued to talk: "I saw you fighting with that white yacht today. I was so anxious. I was originally Locking her in the cockpit, I went to exchange fire with them with my heavy sniper. When I came back, Nianzhi actually joined my army and locked me up. She jumped into the sea regardless of my objections and decided to go on her own. Save you and Ozawa."
"...and this one? What happened next?" Huo Shaoheng asked calmly, holding the wine glass with his fingers, his joints turning slightly white.
"I was so anxious at the time that I wanted to jump off with her, but what about the boat? Without the boat, even if we defeated the gunman on the white yacht, we would be buried in the sea. What's more? , I had full trust in you and Ozawa at that time, and I believed that you and Ozawa could handle it no matter what the situation was. I never expected that there would be such heaven-defying equipment in the blue hole sea area!"
Yin Shixiong clicked his tongue, "It's true that a thirty-year-old woman has lost her baby. If I hadn't thought about it, the three of us would have capsized in the gutter!"
Huo Shaoheng took a sip of wine and said "Oh" calmly, "What happened next?"
"The situation at that time was extremely dangerous. If Nian Zhi hadn't made a prompt decision, put his life and death at risk, jumped into the sea desperately, and risked being shocked by a strong electric arc to rescue you and Ozawa, I would have had to clean my neck and go back to wait for the military. This is the most severe punishment in court." Yin Shixiong said half-jokingly.
In fact, if the most dangerous situation really happened, Yin Shixiong would choose to pass all the intelligence information back to the Chinese Empire, and then die together with Huo Shaoheng and Zhao Liangze.
This is a life-and-death comradeship they have built over the years while performing missions.
Huo Shaoheng nodded and patted Yin Shixiong on the shoulder, "Nianzhi did a good job this time, and so did you. Under the circumstances, you two couldn't jump into the sea at the same time. And Nianzhi's water skills are better than yours, So it’s better for her to save us than for you to do it.”
"Master Huo! Hitting someone is not a slap in the face! You humiliated me in person like this, and have you ever asked me how I feel about my shame?!" Yin Shixiong laughed and made jokes, trying his best to help Huo Shaoheng relax.
Huo Shaoheng twitched the corners of his lips, "Let me tell the truth. Can't you even tell the truth these days?"
"Of course not, we can only say politically correct things! As for what the truth is? I've never seen it!" Yin Shixiong slapped the table and laughed, and then said: "Why are Professor He and Gu Yanran there too? Today we can't What a coincidence."
"It's really a coincidence." Huo Shaoheng took another sip of rum, his eyes so dark and blurry, "Nianzhi told me that the woman on the white yacht was Yamaguchi Yoko, who was later killed by her for kidnapping Gu Yanran. The body. fell into the sea before her.”
