Gu Nianzhi knew something about German military ranks. He knew that the silver background, three stars, and silver-white corolla decoration meant the rank of Army Colonel.
In addition, those shoulder straps are just golden ribbons with two silver-white arrows in the middle, which are the rank of sergeant. They should be the soldiers led by the colonel.
Gu Nianzhi glanced at them and then looked away, still sitting on the sofa reading a book.
The colonel walked up to her with his hands behind his back, stretched out his hand to her, and introduced himself in English: "I am Als, director of the 1st Bureau of the German Federal Intelligence Service, with the rank of colonel."
Gu Nianzhi slowly raised his head and glanced at the man's extended hand. He didn't mean to hold it. He replied in English: "I don't know you. You went to the wrong door."
"Wrong door? Haha..." Als laughed and sat down on the sofa opposite Gu Nianzhi. He closed his hands in white gloves and looked at her with interest, "Nianzhi, Gu Nianzhi? This Is that your real name?"
Gu Nianzhi's whole body trembled. Although he still looked at the textbook in front of him, his hand could no longer hold it steady.
How does this person know her real name? !
To the nuns in the convent, as well as to Reinz and Hannah's mother, she only called her Cereus!
The man saw the sudden change in Gu Nianzhi's face and smiled more sinisterly. He bowed forward slightly, stretched out his white-gloved hand, raised Gu Nianzhi's chin, and forced her to look up at him: "...Miss Gu, at your home Haven't you been taught that when you talk to someone, you have to look them in the eye to be polite?"
Gu Nianzhi fiercely removed his chin from the man's hand, closed his eyes, and said angrily: "My family only taught me to be polite to polite people. I don't have to be polite to uneducated people."
"Eh? Are you saying I'm uneducated? I'm very courageous..." The man didn't seem angry, enjoying the cat and mouse game, and clamped Gu Nianzhi's jaw with one hand, "You should follow us obediently. Go, otherwise..."
Before he finished speaking, the door to the ward was slammed open again, and Reinz rushed in panting.
The slightly brown face looked red from running so fast, and the blue eyes narrowed, looking from Als hand holding Gu Nianzhi's chin to his face.
"Let her go." Reinz spoke in German. He walked over slowly, pushed the man's hand away, pulled Gu Nianzhi up from the sofa, and hid him behind him, "Als, what are you doing here?"
"What am I here for? You hid her here and let me look for her for a long time! Reinz, although we are friends, this is business, please don't stop her. I want to take her to my department for a good interrogation. ." Als raised his head and said, "Leinz, you are not from our department, so don't interfere."
Gu Nianzhi listened carefully to the two people speaking German.
Thanks to her crazy studying these days, she understood most of them, but she still pretended not to understand.
His dark eyes looked between Als and Reinz.
Reinz glanced at Gu Nianzhi and changed to English: "No, Als, you can't take her to your place."
"Won't you go to my place? But she doesn't want to follow you either. Can you bear the risk of running away at any moment?!" Als put his hands behind his back and walked around Gu Nianzhi and said in English: "Miss Gu , what do you think?"
Gu Nianzhi put down the book and asked calmly: "What did you say? I don't understand."
Reinz looked at her with a complicated expression and said, "The hospital said that your condition has completely recovered and there is no need to continue to be hospitalized."
"So you have two choices now. One is to follow me back to the Federal Intelligence Agency. The other is to go to his house with Reinz, but he guarantees that you will not escape." Als murmured in Reinz's direction.
Gu Nianzhi's mind was in chaos.
What the hell is Germany's Federal Intelligence Service? !
How do they know her true identity? !
Or are they going to arrest her and threaten Mr. Huo? !
She guessed that this intelligence agency was similar to the domestic Secret Service or Mr. Huo's Special Operations Department, right
That's Mr. Huo's old enemy.
Gu Nianzhi lowered his head, revealing a snow-white neck.
Do you still have to choose between going to the Federal Intelligence Agency or going to the Reinz family
Are you really not forcing her to go to Reinz
Gu Nianzhi pursed his lips.
He raised his head again, with a timid look on his face, and tugged at the corner of Reinz's clothes, "Leinz, I... I'll go with you."
Reinz slowly reached back and held Gu Nianzhi's hand that was holding the hem of his clothes.
That hand was as soft as boneless, smooth and gentle. His heart gradually calmed down, and he felt peaceful and joyful, and he just wanted to hold her hand.
Even if he knew she was lying to him...
Reinz knew much better than Als what kind of person Gu Nianzhi was.
In fact, when he saw the timid look on her delicate and intelligent little face, he wanted to laugh...
If he hadn't seen with his own eyes Gu Nianzhi in the Alps, holding a gun and raising a bullet to kill an opponent's motorcycle, he would have been deceived by her appearance.
Reinz remained calm, but there was something strange in his heart.
He actually likes to see her clinging to a little bird like him...
"Are you sure you want to go with Reinz?" Out of the corner of his eye, Als caught a glimpse of the hands of the two of them intertwined. He turned his head as if nothing had happened and looked at the sealed window, with the corners of his lips slightly raised, "Who are you? How could he take my goal away from me?"
The corner of Gu Nianzhi's lips twitched, and her mind quickly thought about what Als's words meant.
"Did you hear that? Who are you? Why can he take you away?" Als turned around and asked Gu Nianzhi's face, "According to the law, only immediate family members are qualified to take away the people in my hands. ."
Gu Nianzhi's heart sank.
Immediate family
How can two men and women who are neither relatives nor friends be considered direct relatives
Only...the relationship between husband and wife can be regarded as direct relatives
What kind of international joke are you kidding? !
Gu Nianzhi blushed and was about to shake off Reinz's hand, but Reinz subconsciously held her tightly and said to Als: "Als, don't scare her. She is already my fiancée. If she comes with me, I guarantee that she will stay in Germany."
Gu Nianzhi's eyes widened and he shook his head hastily, "I..."
Reinz hugged her into his arms, pressed her head tightly, and whispered in his ear: "... Expedient solution! Shut up!"
Gu Nianzhi knew it was a lie, but she was still a little uneasy. Besides, why would she stay in Germany
She is a citizen of the Chinese Empire!
Must go back!
She still has unfinished business!
Reluctantly, she poked Reinz's chest with her finger, asking him to let her go.
Reinz let go of her and motioned her again with his eyes to stop talking.
Gu Nianzhi had no choice but to purse her lips, turn behind him and lower her head, no longer looking at the two men.
Als looked away, looked at Reinz, and sneered: "You guarantee it? What guarantee do you have? Your life?"
Reinz didn't speak for a long time, with a solemn expression on his handsome, porcelain face.
He nodded slowly: "Yes, my life. I guarantee with my life that she will never leave Germany."
Gu Nianzhi raised his head suddenly and stared at Reinz's back, his eyes burning, as if he wanted to see a hole in his back.
She wanted to struggle, but Reinz reached out and held her hand tighter. The meaning in his hand was self-evident.
Let her calm down, let her stop talking nonsense, let her...entrust everything to him.
But how could Gu Nianzhi entrust everything to a man he had known for less than ten days
There is only one person in her life who she truly trusts wholeheartedly, and no other person.
But Als is here and Gu Nianzhi is aware of the seriousness. If she is not careful, she will be put under house arrest by the Federal Intelligence Agency. If that happens, there is really nothing she can do.
So she said nothing, but she decided to find an opportunity to have a good talk with Reinz. Not only was it expedient to say that she was his fiancée, but she would not stay in Germany.
Besides, what Als said was completely unreasonable and she would not listen.
Ignoring Reinz's warning look, Gu Nianzhi raised his head stubbornly and said to Als: "Mr. Colonel, what you are doing is unreasonable and illegal. I am not a German citizen. You force me to stay in Germany. My relatives and motherland will not let you go if you are illegally detained."
Als turned around quickly, walked up to Reinz, pushed him away, and sneered at Gu Nianzhi who was standing behind Reinz, "You tell me about the law? Do you know who I am? Do you know the organization I work for? What is it?"
"I don't care who you are or what institution you serve. This is peacetime. The Chinese Empire and Germany are not warring countries. You have no right to place citizens of other countries under house arrest. Als, even though you are a colonel, I still want to say that you You are a legal illiterate. Do you think that because you are a colonel, you will not break the law? Do you think that because you are an officer of the Federal Intelligence Service, you are above the law? - Do you dare to say this to your parliament, government and people?!"
Gu Nianzhi raised his head slightly, not afraid at all.
Als looked at her, suddenly raised his head and burst into laughter: "Hahahaha... She is indeed the number one target of our Federal Intelligence Agency! Courage! Knowledge! And eloquence! - But Miss Gu, do you know? ? No one has ever dared to talk to me like this! Are you going to be the first person?! But I don’t like to be pointed at my nose and lectured like this. Do you think you don’t want to live? "
Gu Nianzhi shook his head disdainfully, "So what? Kill me if you dare!"
"Kill you? Do you know that if I want, I can make you thousands of times worse than death!" Als stepped forward and grabbed Gu Nianzhi's chin again.
This time, he used 50% of his strength, and Gu Nianzhi's jaw was immediately red and swollen from his pinching.
Reinz couldn't bear to watch from the side and grabbed Als's hand, "That's enough! Als, you have my word, and I will do what I say! Why are you embarrassing her?"
Als let go. Gu Nianzhi rubbed his chin with his hand and glared at him, thinking that it would be unkind to not avenge him.
As long as she can go back alive, she will definitely avenge these revenges!
"What are you looking at? Do you think I really don't dare to hit you?!" Als glared at her, "If I kill you casually and bury you in the mountains, how can anyone still come to me to kill you?"
Haha, Gu Nianzhi gave him a disdainful look.
If it was really that simple, they would have killed her in the mountains long ago!
"I'm right here, unarmed. It's not surprising that you want to kill me. The Germans can start two world wars, so why do they need a reason to kill women and children? What a joke!" Gu Nianzhi rolled his eyes. Crossing his arms, he sacrificed the weight of history that the Germans could not touch.
Sure enough, both Als and Reinz looked very ugly for a moment, but no one argued back with her. Even the sergeants looked at each other uneasily, and the morale of the soldiers was obviously unstable.
Gu Nianzhi became more determined.
These people are German soldiers and government officials. They cannot be like the mercenaries who hunted her in the Alps. They just want to kill her regardless of the cost or reputation.
These people would not kill her, and her life was not what they were seeking.
Gu Nianzhi's mind was spinning, and he analyzed Als's psychology to a very close degree.
Als was almost speechless by her retort. Then he glanced at Reinz, put his fist to his mouth, cleared his throat, and said, "Okay, no matter how eloquent you are, I will." I don’t care. Tell me, Reinz’s fiancée, are you going to jail with me, or are you going to his house with Reinz?”
After speaking, he added: "But remember, if you run away, I will kill Reinz."
Reinz pursed his lips and looked away, as if he didn't hear what Als was saying.
Of course Gu Nianzhi would not go to jail. She snorted and said, "Why do you want me to accompany you when you go to jail? Of course I will follow Reinz."
"You!" Als was furious and slapped Gu Nianzhi in the face.
I didn't expect this woman to be so sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued. She really deserves a beating!
Reinz grabbed Als's arm and warned him: "Als! That's enough!"
Als pushed Reinz away angrily, lowered his head, and walked out angrily.
His men immediately dispersed with a cheer.
Gu Nianzhi and Reinz were the only two people left in the ward. The bodyguards at the door retracted their necks and closed the door for them.
Gu Nianzhi closed his eyes and felt that his legs were weak and his feet were weak. He suddenly fell down on the sofa and was speechless for a long time.
When Reinz saw her, he realized that this little girl was just trying to hold on because of her lustful appearance.
But her words really shocked him.
In the face of power, most people choose to surrender, while others choose to resist. Only she chooses to obey the law.
Reinz looked at her with a complicated expression. After a while, he took out his mobile phone and made a call. Then he took out a bucket of ice milk from the refrigerator, poured a cup and put it in the microwave to warm it up slightly before bringing it to her. "Drink some milk."
Gu Nianzhi took it and drank it in one gulp, still holding the empty glass and saying nothing.
Reinz stood beside her, holding a coffee cup in one hand and looking at the scenery outside the window. His voice was very gentle: "...Cereus, come with me to my house. I will protect you."
Gu Nianzhi twitched the corner of her mouth and wanted to say that I don't need your protection, just let me go home. But when she left Reinz at this time, what was waiting for her was to be taken back to the Federal Intelligence Agency by Als. That would mean never seeing her again. It's sunny.
Gu Nianzhi raised his head and looked at Reinz's religiously handsome profile and his expression as if all the happiness in the world had nothing to do with him. He sighed softly and said, "Leinz, thank you."
Reinz nodded slightly and began to pack Gu Nianzhi's things in the ward.
She lived here for seven or eight days and accumulated a lot of bits and pieces, of course all of which Reinz bought for her.
After a while, there was a knock on the door.
Reinz opened the door, and Gu Nianzhi turned around and saw that someone had brought two large suitcases.
The LV brand is durable and durable, making it a must-have item for home and travel.
Gu Nianzhi said to Reinz: "...Do you have so many things? As for two suitcases?"
Reinz said nothing, pursed his thin lips, and helped her pack everything into the suitcase. He actually packed two large suitcases.
Gu Nianzhi: "..."
It's so shameful that I took a wrong look.
Reinz held Gu Nianzhi's hand and walked out of the ward. A bodyguard walked in at the door, following behind with two suitcases.
Gu Nianzhi asked Reinz, "Have you paid the hospitalization fee?"
Reinz looked at her and said, "If you haven't paid yet, will you pay?"
"I think Als should pay it, or the German government should pay it to me." Gu Nianzhi shrugged, "You are holding me hostage here, and you are not even willing to pay for the hospitalization expenses? Isn't that too stingy?"
Reinz felt a little strange when he heard this. He took a few steps and said without looking back: "...No one is holding you hostage. You are here and you need our protection. If you are let out, it will not take more than a few days." You will be hunted."
Gu Nianzhi frowned, "Leinz, I didn't expect you to have the same accent as Als."
She felt that her freedom was still restricted, but her cell boss was changed from the real prison cell boss of the Federal Intelligence Agency in Als to Reinz.
Reinz smiled and said, "Als must be very happy to hear you say that."
Gu Nianzhi pursed his lips, stopped talking, and followed him to the parking lot.
Reinz walked to a red Aston Martin, opened the door, smiled at Gu Nianzhi and said, "This is my car, there's no need to take a taxi."
When Reinz took Gu Nianzhi to another hospital to see Hannah's mother, he called a taxi. At that time, Gu Nianzhi asked him if he had his own car...
Gu Nianzhi looked at the luxury sports car with a bag, then looked at Reinz, shook his head and said, "I didn't expect you to be like this Reinz."
Reinz: "..."
He's not a lecherous person, he doesn't drink too much, he doesn't gamble, he doesn't take drugs. He just has this little hobby, but he can't drive a good car? !
The two got into the car, and the bodyguard put the two suitcases on the SUV in the back, followed the Aston Martin in front and drove out of the parking lot of Charlotte Hospital towards the outskirts of Berlin.
The two cars turned onto the highway out of the city and arrived in front of a beautiful country villa in only half an hour.
The house wasn't very big, but it was much bigger than Hannah's mother's house.
