Chapter 38: Timely Rain
Sitting in the luxurious and comfortable Hummer luxury car, the cold air came out of the roof of the car, the heat flow in Ma Lie's body slowly eased, and he turned his head to look at the street shuttling outside the car window, his mind was uncertain, and there was no excitement for the rest of his life.
Just half an hour ago, after conducting a rigorous investigation and evidence collection on his identity as a college student and the recorded confession, it was determined that he was really innocent and wronged, and he was immediately released on the spot.
Unfortunately, the 'Chenggong Teahouse' under his name has been seized by the police on suspicion of harboring crowds to gamble, and all cash has been frozen, including the funds in the teahouse.
Ma Lie, who had just been promoted to the level of 10 million local tyrants for a few days, had not had time to feel the life of a local tyrant, but he quickly fell to the bottom and suffered heavy losses.
Ma Lie does not have high requirements for life, but he just planned to buy a car for transportation, and planned to let his sister go to a hospital with better conditions for treatment and buy a house for his parents to live in.
Without the financial support of the 'Tea House Casino', if the jade shop alone is maintained, the above plans may be temporarily put on hold.
Fortunately, if you compare it seven or eight days ago, Ma Lie is lucky.
Plus this time, if Hang Xuezhen hadn't arrived in time, or if he was a step late, he would probably be interrogated in the police station now.
Until now, Ma Lie still didn't know how Hang Xuezhen received the news, and quickly called a big man who often showed his face on national TV to come over and shake the scene.
How big is this big man, it can be said that he can shake the entire Donghai City with a single stampe.
Director Ma, Uncle Xu and others all respectfully called him secretary, but Hang Xuezhen called him brother-in-law, and Ma Lie had seen him attend various leadership meetings on TV, which basically confirmed his identity.
That Director Ma was only a sub-director, although there were also instructions from the big guys. However, in front of this secretary, he had to bow his head obediently. The impartial handling of turning a blind eye quickly released Ma Lie on the spot.
Hang Xuezhen sat with him in the middle row of seats in the Humvee, only a few centimeters between the two people. Ma Lie had countless questions in his heart, Hang Xue really should know to agree, but now, it is not the time to ask Hang Xue Zhen.
Because, in the back seat, the big man's existence made Ma Lie feel a suffocating sense of urgency.
Ma Lie also noticed that since he got into the car, the other party seemed to have been observing him.
Ma Lie wasn't afraid, he hadn't really feared anyone when he was so big.
It's just that he is a small citizen himself, and suddenly he was sitting in the same car with such a big man, and the other party kept a stern face, and he didn't say a word the whole time.
Ma Lie instinctively felt at a loss.
There are some things that I don't want to talk to Hang Xuezhen in front of that big person, Hang Xuezhen also thinks so, and the two of them are silent in tacit understanding.
The Hummer drove for a while and suddenly stopped, and Ma Lie saw that not far from the car window, there was a row of quaint villas.
Lao Xu parked the car, turned back to the big man and said, "Secretary, your home has arrived!" ”
"Well, thanks!"
The middle-aged man got out of the car, closed the door, squeezed out a little smile at Hang Xuezhen, and said, "Xuezhen, if there is anything you need to notify me in the future, don't let me rush to the scene before you know what you are going to do." ”
Hang Xue really lowered her head a little embarrassed, and said softly: "Brother-in-law, I remember, thank you." ”
"Well, you should go back early!" The middle-aged man waved at her, turned around and strode towards the villa.
As soon as the middle-aged man left, Uncle Xu asked Hang Xuezhen: "Miss, I'll send you home first, and then send Ma Lie to the hospital?" ”
Hang Xuezhen shook her head and said, "No, you send him to the hospital first." ”
"Good!" Uncle Xu nodded, immediately turned the head of the car, and drove in the other direction.
Ma Lie looked out the car window fixedly, still not saying anything. Hang Xuezhen couldn't sit still, and said, "Ma Lie, are you okay?" ”
"It's okay, it's just a dog bite, it's out of the way!"
Ma Lie's left arm was bitten by the shepherd dog, and he was pierced into the skin by two fangs, bleeding profusely. Fortunately, before he was released, Director Ma had already called medical staff to give him medicine and bandage him.
However, being bitten by a dog is not a trivial matter, and it is not good if you are infected with rabies. Therefore, Ma Lie did not refuse Hang Xuezhen's intention to send him to the hospital.
Hang Xuezhen asked again: "Ma Lie, don't you have any money to spend, why do you want to open a casino and do those illegal things?" ”
Ma Lie couldn't explain it clearly, and said with a wry smile: "Well, probably I don't have any money, but that casino is someone else, and I'm just temporarily helping to manage it for a few days." ”
Hang Xue was really skeptical: "Really? ”
Ma Lie smiled: "You don't believe it? ”
"No" Hang Xue really sighed euphemistically: "Do you know, in order to save you, I found many people, but they couldn't do anything, and in the end, only my brother-in-law could help you." ”
"yes, thank you so much!"
Without the majestic Secretary Huang in the car, not only Ma Lie felt as relaxed as a mountain on his shoulders being moved, but even Hang Xuezhen took the initiative to open the conversation box and ask whatever he wanted.
"If you don't have the money, I can give it to you."
Ma Lie smiled and asked rhetorically: "Your Hang family is rich, but I have no relatives and no reason with you, and the relationship is average, why do you want to give me money?" ”
"I" Hang Xuezhen was speechless for a while, and she didn't know how to answer.
She really didn't think about it, why did she give him money? The last thing her Hang family lacks is money. However, the relationship between the two of them is delicate, not friends, not even ordinary friends.
Seriously calculated, the relationship between the two of them is probably just the teacher-student friendship that only lasts about seven days, classmates?
For that period of only seven days of teacher-student relationship, give him money, and if you have money, you will be willful?
Hang Xue really didn't know why she had such a strange idea.
Uncle Xu saw Miss Hang's predicament, and opened his mouth to relieve the siege: "Ma Lie, Miss just doesn't want to see you in trouble, because, five days later is her birthday, don't forget the promise you promised Miss!" ”
Ma Lie smiled: "Of course I won't forget, even if I am arrested by the police, I will find a way to escape from prison and go to you, hehe, but this time I really thank you Xue Zhen." ”
The first time she was called by her name, Ma Lie was really not used to it.
"Don't thank me for helping you, in fact, I'm helping myself, Uncle Xu is right, I just don't want to see you in trouble."
Hang Xuezhen is not used to hearing it, he used to call himself Teacher Hang, for this reason. She was also complacent for two days. Her dream since she was a child was to be a teacher, but it was the sustenance and responsibility of her family that made her dream difficult to realize.
Ma Lie smiled: "Since that's the case, then we don't have to thank you anymore, anyway, you and I take what we need, and no one owes anyone, of course, you don't have to give me money, I also have a jade shop, so I don't lack much money." ”
Hang Xue smiled shyly and said lightly: "That's good, if you have difficulties, just sue me directly, don't do anything illegal anymore, in the past few days, I don't want to see you have an accident." ”
"Okay!"
Ma Lie nodded, and suddenly thought of a suspicion in his heart, and asked suspiciously: "By the way, Xue Zhen, how did you know that I had an accident, and I was able to bring your brother-in-law here?" ”
Hang Xuezhen shook her head and said suspiciously: "I don't know, I just received a strange phone call, it was the voice of an old man, he directly told me that you had an accident, and told me the location of your accident." ”
"At first, I didn't believe it, but when I tried to call you, I couldn't get through. Finally, I went to ask my cousin, and my cousin sued me, and their police received a report that the 'Chenggong Teahouse' was suspected of gathering people to gamble, involving a huge amount of money. I just thought that the man said that the place where you had an accident was in the 'Chenggong Teahouse', and I didn't worry about you, so I asked my brother-in-law to come with me. ”
"Who is that mysterious man?"
In fact, Ma Lie had a confused answer in his heart, but he was not 100% sure yet.
If it weren't for that person, Ma Lie would probably still be just an ordinary college student now, and he wouldn't have encountered this series of complex and changeable troubles.
Ma Lie was very moved by Hang Xue's real rescue again. Owing her a few favors, he decided to repay her with what he could.
Hang Xuezhen himself didn't know why he was so good to Ma Lie, probably hoping that he wouldn't have an accident before his birthday. This Ma Lie is just a pawn and a shield for her, and that's how she comforts herself.
Hang Xue is really a good person to the end, personally sent him to the Municipal People's Hospital, received a dose of rabies vaccine, and re-disinfected the wound on his left arm, medicated, and re-bandaged and cleaned up.
After all this work, the time has come to one o'clock in the morning.
Hang Xue really didn't worry about him, so she took the initiative to arrange for him to be hospitalized for two days.
Ma Lie couldn't refuse her kindness, and because his arm was injured, he didn't want to know about it to his parents or classmates and teachers at school, so he had to humbly accept her arrangement.
Originally, Hang Xuezhen wanted to insist on staying in the hospital to accompany Ma Lie.
However, her kindness was unanimously opposed by Ma Lie and Uncle Xu. Hang Xue has been pampered since she was a child, and she has always been served by others, and if she wants to serve others, I am afraid that she will be unhelpful.
After persuading Hang Xuezhen to leave, Ma Lie, who was lying on the hospital bed, took out his mobile phone that had recovered the signal, and found that there were more than a dozen missed calls and more than a dozen text messages in it.
Most of the missed calls and text messages were from Hang Xuezhen, two were from Mu Qing'er, and one of them was Song Qi, and the time was not long after they went out of the underground passage.
It can be seen that Song Qi and Bai Li should have escaped from the police blockade safely.
Ma Lie was not at ease, and called Song Qi, only to know that Song Qi was avoiding trouble with Feng Yong at the moment, but Bai Li did not know where to go.
