Chapter 39: Help

In the face of the blatant solicitation, Zongheng only thought for a moment, and then agreed: "I'm interested, but I need to meet someone before I can give a final answer." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Nemo......" Hannah tried to stop.

But Zongheng waved his hand at her, signaling her not to speak.

He glanced at Hannah and asked, "Who do you want to meet?" ”

"The owner of the knife at the entrance of the Peace Hotel."

"You want to see my uncle?"

"That knife was stuck in the stone by your uncle?"

Zhang nodded.

"Then I'm going to see him. I'll reply after I've seen it. ”

"You wait for me a moment." Zhang thought about it, took out his mobile phone, walked into the distance, and made a call.

After a while, she returned to the front and said, "My uncle wants to see you too." But he's been busy lately and I hope you can wait a while. ”

"How long will it take?"

"Around Christmas."

"Good! Then I'll wait until then. Zongheng said, "Then that's the end of today's business!" I still have things to do. ”

Of course, he knew what he was going to do. She asked, "Do you need our help?" ”

"How are you going to help?"

Zhang said: "Do you think it would be better for us to do that kind of thing?" ”

Zongheng asked rhetorically, "So, do you know what I'm going to do?" ”

Zhang smiled: "Don't forget, we have been following you." We also know very well what you have in hand that can blackmail the family surnamed Zhao. I'm sure that just show them those pictures and tell them that if they don't do what we ask, we'll give them to the Cripples. For the sake of their own lives, it is impossible for them not to agree. ”

Zongheng knew that the "attention" in his mouth was actually the meaning of "surveillance". He asked, "Since you've been 'watching' me, why don't you come to help me because I'm so busy today?" “

Zongheng deliberately added an accent to the word "concern".

Zhang understood that this was an expression of dissatisfaction. She quickly explained, "We've been helping you! Don't forget, we sent you the note you received at the hospital. Also, what you did in the alley today, we also helped you deal with the tail of the hand. Otherwise, do you think the police would have been silent until now? “

Zongheng thought about it, nodded and said, "I have written down all these favors." In the future, it will be reciprocated. ”

"If you agree to join us, we will be partners, what is this little thing?" Zhang still did not give up his plan to persuade Zongheng on the spot.

But the things that are decided by the vertical and horizontal are rarely changed. He immediately refused: "Since it has been decided to reply after meeting with your uncle, then we will talk about this topic at that time." Now, if you do me a small favor, I still remember your favor. Regardless of whether I will join you in the future or not, I will repay the personal debt. ”

"Oh well! What's up? Seeing that he was resolute, Zhang had no choice but to agree.

"When you go to persuade the Zhao family today, not only do you have to ask them to delete the post and apologize publicly, but also explain the mastermind behind the scenes. There was no one to back it up, and I don't believe they would have the guts to go against a well-known professor and a working FBI agent. ”

"Got it! I'll make sure people do it. Zhang nodded heavily.

"So, Hannah and I took our leave. Waiting for your good news. ”

"Do you need me to send you a car?" He raised his hand and shook his phone.

After glancing at Hannah, he saw that she was covered in mud and "water", and felt that her appearance on the road was easy to attract strange eyes from others, so he said, "Then I will trouble you." ”

Zhang ordered Daniel Zhang: "You are responsible for escorting Nemo and Miss Hannah home." ”

"Understood! I'm going to do it right! Daniel Zhang was immediately overjoyed. He smashed the task tonight, and was thinking about how to redeem the credit, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon.

Hannah has a shadow in her heart for Daniel Zhang and doesn't want to accept his favors. But when I think of my current embarrassed appearance, if I change someone, it means that I will be embarrassed in front of one more person. So, she had to keep her head down and remain silent, which was a tacit acquiescence to Zhang and Nemo's decision.

After Zhang finished making the call, after a while, the lights of the car were lit up outside the woods.

Holding Hannah in his arms, he walked out of the woods step by step. Daniel Zhang let the driver and others who were originally sitting in the car get out of the car, and personally drove the two back home.

Because they were afraid of waking up James and the others, Zongheng and Hannah did not let Daniel Zhang send them directly to the door, but got out of the car and walked home from a long distance.

Hannah took out the key and was about to open the door when Zongheng suddenly grabbed her hand.

"Shhhh......h

"There's someone inside." He whispered as he bit Hannah's ear.

Hannah looked at Zongheng in disbelief and retracted her hand to open the door.

For safety, he pulled Hannah out of front of the door, bent down and sneaked out of the dining room window, peering into the window.

The room was dark and black, and I couldn't see anything except a few faint electrical fluorescences.

Seeing that he poked his head out for a long time and didn't see what he looked like, Hannah followed his example and quietly stretched his head out under the edge of the bed.

At this moment, the figure of a white woman suddenly appeared at the window. Hannah saw a pair of blue eyes staring at her under her long black hair.

"Ahh Hannah screamed in fright and sat down on the ground.

Zongheng was also taken aback, but the reason for his fright was obviously different from Hannah's.

The light in the room was turned on, and Hannah realized that it was Lydia standing at the window.

Lydia opened the window and asked, "You two, what are you doing running out without sleeping in the middle of the night?" ”

"Li...... Lydia? Hannah stammered her sister's name, "How could it be you?" ”

"If it's not me, who else will it be? Could it be a ghost? Lydia said, "Hannah, what's wrong with you?" What about a body of mud? ”

Hannah blushed and couldn't speak.

Lydia said, "How long are you two going to stay outside?" Your neighbors are going to be woken up by you. ”

Hannah's scream was so sharp that it was like she had been stabbed, and the bedroom of the house next to her was already lit up.

Hannah was most afraid of being seen by outsiders, so she hurriedly got up from the ground with her hands and feet, and rushed back to the gate.

Before she could pull out the key to open the door, Lydia had already opened the door.

When Zongheng and Hannah entered the door, Lydia sniffed her nose, then put her index finger under her nose, frowned and asked, "Hannah, did you go to the toilet?" Why does it smell of urine? ”

Hannah was a little angry and said, "You don't care about my business!" I'm going to take a shower and change my clothes! ”

With that, she hurried upstairs.

At this time, Marilyn also appeared on the stairs in her nightgown. When she saw Hannah, she was also taken aback and asked, "Hannah! What happened to you? …… Woo...... It stinks......"

Hannah was wronged and frightened this night, and at this time she couldn't bear it anymore, she cried out loud, and as she rushed upstairs, she cried: "Don't ask! ”

"Hannah......" Marilyn looked at Hannah who disappeared down the stairs in surprise, her face shocked.

She turned her head to look at Lydia, her face full of questions. Lydia was also inexplicable. So, the two looked at Zongheng in unison.

He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Tonight's thing...... Well...... It's a long story......"

Lydia immediately realized that this matter was probably complicated tonight, and was about to persuade Marilyn to go to rest first, and then tell her after she asked about the situation, when she heard someone outside the door shouting to her: "Hey! Lydia! I just heard a scream. Nothing happened, did it? ”

Lydia looked back and saw her neighbor, Mr. Humbert, standing on the lawn with a shotgun poking out her head.

This is a middle-aged man with a good appearance, and even the appearance of carrying a gun is as elegant as an old-school English gentleman holding a civilized stick.

"Good evening! Mr. Humbert. Lydia hurriedly greeted him, "It's okay." Hannah came back from outside and fell in the doorway. ”

"It would be nice if it was okay." "I thought a thief or robber had come to your house," said Mr. Humbert. Since the influx of immigrants, the streets of Midwood have not been peaceful in recent years. ”

"Thank you for your concern. We're all right. It's not early, so go back and rest! ”

"That's good! Good night! Miss Lydia. ”

Humbert returned to his home with a gun. Lydia closed the door and said to Marilyn, "Mom, you should go back and rest early!" ”

"But...... Hannah and Nemo ......"

"Here I am! I'll figure things out. Go back to your room and go to sleep! Otherwise, Dad wakes up in the middle of the night and can't find you, but he will be in a hurry. ”

"Then he needs to wake up!" Marilyn snorted, "It's not that you don't know, he has been carrying his ears a lot in the past few years." Without hearing aids, he wouldn't have heard anything, even if someone was shooting outside. ”

That being said, Marilyn did as Lydia told her to go back to her room.

After Marilyn left, Lydia immediately looked at Zongheng and asked with a serious face, "What are you doing with Hannah tonight?" Why is she all dirty? Also, Why are her lips swollen? Did you kiss her? ”

I was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Lydia to have such a keen eye, he didn't even see that Hannah's lips were swollen, how did Lydia see it? Also, why should she care about this?

Lydia was stunned, the suspicion on her face became more and more intense, and she asked again, "You ...... It's not going to be running out in the middle of the night...... Cheating, right? ”
