Gu Nianzhi was silent for a while, then smiled and shook his head, "Professor He, you are a professor... pay attention to your image, pay attention to your image. That's what I said, don't spoil me anymore. If you continue to spoil me, I will be lawless." Besides, we are all members of the legal profession, and everything we do must be within the scope of the law. Even if we don’t let them live, we have to make them obey the law in court, right?"
He Zhichu turned around, leaned against the cooking table, looked ahead silently, and said, "Huo Shaoheng has indeed had a great influence on you..."
Gu Nianzhi's speaking tone was exactly like Huo Shaoheng's.
"Really? I don't think that I am me and he is him." Gu Nianzhi's smile faded, and she kept putting a few pieces of bacon in the bread, then spread a little mayonnaise, and put it on Lettuce leaves and cut tomato slices are put together to make a fresh sandwich. Put it on the plate, listen to the beep of the microwave, and the milk is hot.
Gu Nianzhi took the sandwich and milk back to the living room, put them on the coffee table, and said to He Zhichu, "I'm going back first. When Ye Xuan comes out after washing, you can let him eat something before going to bed."
Ye Xuan must have been having trouble eating and sleeping these past few days. Gu Nianzhi felt that he was very haggard.
He Zhichu picked up his coat and put it on, "I'll take you back."
"...No need." Gu Nianzhi wanted to refuse, but He Zhichu refused to say anything and held her arm and walked out together.
"Don't be polite to me, don't forget what happened this morning." He Zhichu opened his door, "Those people won't let you go just because you are in school."
"But you can't stay with me like this for the rest of your life." Gu Nianzhi adjusted his backpack, "I can handle it."
"Do you know what kind of enemy you are facing?" He Zhichu followed her to the elevator door. "If you don't know, don't lie in front of me."
Gu Nianzhi thought about it and realized that the brutality of the gunman in the morning was indeed something she had not expected.
If it hadn't been for He Chu, she would have died by now.
So her mind turned to the question that He Zhichu had not answered just now: "... If they are really after the Gu family's property, won't this behavior become worse after I win the property dispute lawsuit? Also, If it's for the Gu family's property, then why didn't Gu Yanran become their target, but me?"
He Zhichu stood beside her, looked directly at the elevator door, and said calmly: "How do you know that Gu Yanran has not become their target? If he was not worried about his own safety, how could Gu Yanran go around looking for backers? How could Gu Xiangwen do this? Choose to live in seclusion and escape from the world? Think about it, what are you implying? "
That makes sense.
Gu Nianzhi recalled what he knew about the Gu family, Gu Xiangwen and Gu Yanran, and felt like a mess, with a confused and angry expression on his face.
She was at a loss because she didn't know what the other person wanted. She was angry because she was powerless to deal with such a situation.
"...But their weapons are so advanced and powerful..." Gu Nianzhi murmured, "Do I really want to return to the Special Operations Department?"
Just like when she was a teenager, living next to Huo Shaoheng
But what is the difference between that kind of life and imprisonment
Although Huo Shaoheng would not imprison her, she was "imprisoned" by those hostile forces.
Hearing that Gu Nianzhi was worried about the opponent's advanced weapons, He Zhichu smiled and said leisurely: "They only have this one weapon. If it is destroyed, it will be destroyed. There will be no more. You can rest assured." .”
"How do you know?" Gu Nianzhi looked at He Zhichu suspiciously again, "Professor He, I always feel that you know a lot of things, but you are unwilling to tell me, why?"
"I told you, but you don't believe me, why should I ask for trouble again?" The elevator came, and He Zhichu and Gu Nianzhi walked in together and pressed down the floor.
"What did you tell me? Say it again and I will believe it!" Gu Nianzhi clasped his hands in front of him and looked at He Zhichu eagerly, his eyes as irresistible as those of a helpless kitten.
He Zhichu lowered his eyes and smiled, "I said that you will be my fiancée from birth, do you believe it?"
Gu Nianzhi: "..."
Why say it again
Gu Nianzhi's face fell, "Okay, I won't ask anymore. You always make fun of this matter, how can I trust you?"
He Zhichu took a long breath, looked at the descending elevator floor digital display, chuckled and said, "...how do you know I'm joking?"
"It's very simple. Is there such a thing as finger-tip marriage now? Even if there is, it has no legal effect. So Professor He, please stop saying that. I don't want to be heard and bring you unnecessary trouble. ." Gu Nianzhi's tone became more relaxed.
She has very complicated feelings about He Zhichu.
For so long, He Zhichu really had nothing to say to her. He tried his best to help her, protect her, and save her, which was already beyond the scope of caring for students as a professor.
During this period of time together, Gu Nianzhi felt more and more indescribable familiarity with He Zhichu, as if they not only knew each other before, but were really familiar with him.
What exactly is going on
Gu Nianzhi's intuition was related to her lost memory.
Did she really know He Chu before she was 12 years old? And he's very familiar with it
Gu Nianzhi closed her eyes and tried her best to recall the clues she could think of, trying to find a little bit of things from before she was 12 years old from the chaotic memory. However, just like before, when she tried to recall, her head hurt like a brain. The part in charge of memory during that period was completely removed.
Thinking back on it is like entering a black hole of memory, with no direction at all.
The elevator dinged and reached the ground floor of the professor's building.
The elevator door opened, and He Zhichu and Gu Nianzhi walked out together.
It was already dark outside, and the street lights in front of the building illuminated several paths extending in all directions.
This is the professor's area and there are not many people there at night.
The big bare trees stood quietly in front of the professor's building, illuminated by the street lights into lonely shadows. They stood in rows quietly, like guards.
Gu Nianzhi and He Zhichu walked together to the female graduate student dormitory where she lived.
He Zhichu saw Gu Nianzhi rubbing her temples, knowing that she had a headache again, and said calmly: "...Don't think about the past, actually I was joking with you. Those things are not a big deal. The most important thing for you now, It’s focused on your property dispute lawsuit.”
Gu Nianzhi didn't speak for a while. It wasn't until she reached the downstairs of her dormitory that she said to He Zhichu seriously: "Professor He, I want to fight the lawsuit, but I also want to get back my past memories."
As she spoke, a strand of hair hung down and rested on the side of her face, making her palm-sized face look even bigger and brighter.
He Zhichu gently tucked the strand of hair hanging down behind her ears and said, "After your lawsuit is over, your past memories will be recovered. So you don't have to think about it, everything will fall into place."
…
At the headquarters of the Special Operations Division, Yin Shixiong was reporting to Huo Shaoheng on their situation in the court and the police station.
"... The people at the police station were very nice. Although Gu Yanran asked them to arrest Ye Xuan, they did not deliberately embarrass him. Later, Nian Zhi and Professor He got his alibi and went directly to the court to ask the court to cancel the case. Follow After Gu Yanran communicated with Jin Wanyi, the court agreed to Nianzhi's request and let us go."
Huo Shaoheng nodded. He sat behind the desk, holding the mouse in one hand and supporting his side with the other, staring at the computer monitor. "Well, it's fine."
Ye Xuan's case was dismissed, and he could go to court to testify with Gu Nianzhi without any burden.
"...Ye Xuan, do you have anything to say?" Huo Shaoheng asked without raising his head.
Yin Shixiong scratched his head, "I don't know about that. Qiqi is exhausted. I will send her back to the dormitory, and I will come back to report to you. Professor He, Nian Zhi and Ye Xuan went to Professor He's apartment in University B. We should talk about it.”
"I don't want to hear 'should' or 'maybe', I want to know the exact answer." Huo Shaoheng squinted his eyes, slowed down the video on the computer to half the speed, continued watching, and waved to Yin Shixiong, "You go and have a rest. Then we will deal with Nian Zhi's property dispute case."
"Yes, chief." Yin Shixiong stood at attention and saluted, then turned and left.
After Yin Shixiong left, Huo Shaoheng raised his head from the computer, thinking about what Yin Shixiong had just said, and then looked at He Zhichu's strong skills on the video, and when he was protecting Gu Nianzhi, even though he was He rolled on the ground, but after entering the gate of the police station, he did not hide behind the wall.
This detail made Huo Shaoheng very vigilant.
Generally speaking, even for well-trained military and police personnel, when avoiding a gunman, the best place to hide is behind a wall.
After all, there are very few guns that can break through walls, and they are not easy to get.
In the Chinese Empire it was simply impossible.
But He Zhichu, who was protecting Gu Nianzhi, seemed to have already known the power of the opponent's bullets and completely avoided the wall.
Because for that kind of bullet, hiding behind the wall is equivalent to exposing your heart to the enemy.
So, He Zhichu seems to be familiar with this kind of weapon...
Huo Shaoheng suddenly understood when he thought of the strange-looking weapon held by He Zhichu in the video sent back by the field personnel of the Special Operations Department in the United States of He Zhichu rescuing Ye Xuan.
He thought for a moment, picked up his cell phone, and called He Zhichu.
"Mr. He, do you have time to talk?"
He Zhichu had just sent Gu Nianzhi back to the dormitory and was walking back alone.
He was wearing a Bluetooth headset, put his hands in his coat pockets, and said calmly: "What do you want to talk about? I'm very busy, so I may not be free."
"I want to talk to Professor He about the gun from the 'U.S. Army Laboratory' that you used in the United States." Seeing that He didn't want to meet at the beginning, Huo Shaoheng said directly on the phone, "If I'm not wrong, this morning The gun used by that gunman is a different model from the gun you used in the United States, right?"
He Zhichu was slightly startled, "Really? What kind of gun did the shooter use this morning?"
