Chapter 1459 - Will tell you a secret

Bai Jinyi’s words were like a pot of boiling water.

Bai Yueran felt a little warm in her heart. She withdrew her hand and placed it on the armrest beside her. She said calmly, “Auntie, you said you have an important clue to report? I’m a little pressed for time. I only have 40 minutes left.”

She had only driven for 20 minutes, and there was only an hour left in total. Bai Jinyi dragged on and on, and soon it was over.

Bai Jinyi composed herself and had no choice but to stop the awkward exchange of pleasantries. She lowered her voice nervously.”... Yueran, I don’t know if this news will help me with my sentence, but I know that Huo Shaoheng is anxiously looking for this news.”

Bai Yueran raised her eyebrows in surprise. “What News? How do you know that Huo Shao is looking for this news?”

Gu Nianzhi had gone missing, and Huo Shaoheng was looking for her all over the world. Could it be that Bai Jinyi knew about her?

Impossible..

If that was really the case, then the prison had to be investigated thoroughly.

However, Bai Jinyi quickly dispelled her doubts.”... Huo Shaoheng specifically came to me just now to ask about this.”

“He specifically came to look for you?”Bai Yueran frowned even more. Could it really be information related to Gu Nianzhi?

She looked suspiciously at Bai Jinyi. “But how did you know?”

Bai Jinyi had been imprisoned for a year as a felon, and Gu Nianzhi had gone missing half a month ago. How did Bai Jinyi find out about this?

Of course, Bai Jinyi had no idea that Gu Nianzhi had gone missing. She quickly said, “It was about seven years ago when I went to C city to monitor the magnetic field!”

“Seven years ago?”Bai Yueran’s brows furrowed as she remembered. “Was it about that time when I was monitoring the magnetic field data, and suddenly broke into a car, and then the car exploded?”

“That’s right, that’s right!”Bai Jinyi quickly nodded and leaned forward, almost to Bai Yueran’s ear, she frowned and grumbled, “It was that time. They said they were going to give me a big gift, but in the end, they only gave me a little orphan girl that no one wanted. I didn’t want to be a free nanny, so I didn’t say anything...”

What Bai Jinyi didn’t like even more was that this little orphan girl that no one wanted had personally sent Gu Nianzhi to prison six years later!

Just the thought of it made her gnash her teeth in hatred.

So what a big gift!

It was completely a death wish!

If she hadn’t been greedy for shortcuts and rushed to get results, she wouldn’t have been seduced and put in so much effort to monitor the magnetic field. In the end, she had even been fooled!

Bai Jinyi grumbled, showing her deep hatred for Gu Nianzhi.

“What? !”Bai Yueran felt that something was wrong,”... say that again? What do you mean by a big gift? Didn’t you say that you suddenly detected the presence of a special magnetic field?”

Bai jinyi smoothed her hair in embarrassment, and an embarrassed blush appeared on her wrinkled face.

She stammered,”... that’s not important. What’s important is that my phone — no, I should say Guanyuan’s phone — received a call seven years ago.”

“That’s not important?”Bai Yueran’s frown deepened. “How can that not be important...”

But she hesitated.

Gu Nianzhi’s matter was a secret mission of the special operations forces, and many places needed to be kept secret. Bai Jinyi did not have the corresponding security level, so she did not know many things.

For example, the plane engine blueprint that Gu Nianzhi carried in her backpack was 50 years more advanced than the most advanced engine in the world.

Also, Gu Nianzhi had just been kidnapped and disappeared.

On second thought, her disappearance was as sudden as her arrival.

Could there be a connection?

Bai Yueran quietly turned on the recording button on her phone, she followed Bai Jinyi’s lead and continued, “Auntie, you said that you received a call seven years ago from the phone belonging to uncle Huo and colonel commandant Huo Guanyuan? I remember that last time... you didn’t say anything, did you? “And there shouldn’t be any call records on the phone, right?”

“No.”Bai Jinyi shook her head and continued to whisper into Bai Yueran’s ear, “All they could find was a set of text messages that existed 11 years ago. This call didn’t leave any trace on the phone after it was made. As long as I didn’t say anything, Huo Shaoheng wouldn’t know anything.”

Bai Yueran had been listening in on Bai Jinyi’s trial a year ago.

She remembered that Bai Jinyi had killed Luo xinxue in order to take the phone.

If she had guessed correctly, the phone had probably been “Not found”by the phone carrier.

Therefore, as long as Bai Jinyi did not say anything, it was impossible for Huo Shaoheng to know anything about it.

Bai Yueran had a hunch that this information would be very helpful in Huo Shaoheng’s search for Gu Nianzhi.

Therefore, she deliberately led Bai Jinyi to reveal the contents of the call.

Bai Yueran secretly moved her phone closer to Bai Jinyi and smiled at Bai Jinyi, telling her not to be nervous, then she asked, “Is that so? Is this the content you want to use to reduce your sentence? But you have to see what the information is. If it’s not a particularly important clue, it won’t be easy to reduce your sentence.”

Bai Jinyi was a little anxious, but she still remembered to keep her voice low. “Then can you help me plead for mercy? I can tell you about the call!”

She knew that there were surveillance cameras in this room, and she did not want to be caught on tape, so she spoke in a very low voice. She only whispered into Bai Yueran’s ear, but she had not expected that Bai Yueran was already recording.

Bai Jinyi trusted Bai Yueran completely, and she could only trust her.

As a suspended death prisoner, she had no leverage in her hands.

If Huo Shaoheng had not suddenly asked her if she had hidden any information from him seven years ago, she would have completely forgotten about this phone call that had made her feel extremely humiliated.

Actually, up until now, she had only gambled on her mental state.

Of course, it would be good if it could work, but if it couldn’t, could it be worse?

Anyway, she had already been sentenced to death. After a year in prison, Bai Jinyi had already accepted her fate.

It was Huo Shaoheng’s sudden visit that gave her hope of survival.

Bai Yueran remained calm and said patiently, “Okay, tell me in detail what the call was about. who made the call? What about the phone number? Do you remember it?”

Bai Jinyi sighed. “I don’t know who called me. The phone number was also very strange. I tried to check it once, but it was an invalid number.”

Bai Yueran:”...”

The caller was really cautious.

Bai Yueran had no choice but to ask again, “Then what was the content of the call?”

Bai Jinyi’s voice was even softer. “The caller was a man. I’ve never heard his voice before. He seemed to be very anxious and only called for less than a minute. He spoke very quickly. He hurriedly told me the time and place and said that he would give me a big gift if I brought Huo Shaoheng with me at this time and place! What was the result? A big gift, my ass! He’s a complete liar!”

Bai Yueran:”...”

“He even mentioned Huo Shao’s name?”Bai Yueran was shocked. “That person knows Huo Shao? !”

“Most likely.”Bai Jinyi was so mysterious that she was almost leaning on Bai Yueran’s shoulder. “Do you think this clue is enough to reduce your sentence?”

“If you don’t know him, why would he call you?”Bai Yueran continued to interrogate her without batting an eyelid. “Is he someone who used to admire you?”

When her aunt was young, she was quite popular with men. It was a pity that the person she loved did not love her.

Bai Yueran’s heart sank. She wondered if all the women in the Bai family were like this.

She didn’t like the people who liked her.

The people she liked didn’t like her.

Bai Shuang was the only exception, but when the people she liked liked liked her, she was already dead.

When Bai Jinyi heard Bai Yueran’s words, her face reddened again. She shook her head and said embarrassedly, “Of course not. You’re thinking too much.”

Bai Yueran changed directions and asked a few more questions. Seeing that Bai Jinyi couldn’t think of anything new, she paused the recording on her phone and said calmly, “I’ll discuss it with the judge. Auntie, do you have any other clues?”

“This should be the clue that Huo Shaoheng is looking for.”Bai jinyi spread her hands. “If this clue doesn’t work, I’ll just have to wait for death.”

She looked at Bai Yueran pitifully.

Bai Yueran couldn’t bear it.

However, she still averted her gaze and calmly said, “Don’t worry, I’ll do my best.”

She still planned to put in a good word for Bai Jinyi in front of Huo Shaoheng.

If this clue could help Huo Shaoheng find Gu Nianzhi, Bai Jinyi might really be able to make a contribution and reduce her sentence.

..

Bai Yueran left the prison and returned to the headquarter of special operationforces’encampment ground. She immediately went to look for Huo Shaoheng.

However, Huo Shaoheng was not in his office.

“Little ze, where’s Huo Shao?”Bai Yueran walked over to Zhao Liangze’s desk and knocked on it with a smile.

Zhao Liangze looked up at her and said calmly, “Huo Shao went out. What’s the matter, director Bai?”

Bai Yueran sat down in front of him and asked carefully, “Little Ze, are you still angry with me? You’ve been angry for so long. Is it time for you to let go of your anger?”

“No, I’m not angry with you.”Zhao Liangze looked away and looked at the computer screen in front of him. “If director Bai has nothing else to do, please wait outside. This is an office, not a reception room.”

Bai Yueran:”...”

She quietly looked at Zhao liangze for a while.

He was wearing a summer uniform today. The tailored military uniform was very well-behaved on him. Even the sleeves were straight into a line.

His fair and handsome face used to be tanned due to the mission.

But after returning for a few months, he had already returned to his fair complexion.

However, he had also gained a few traces of valor, and his temperament had completely settled down. He was more manly than before, and more mature and reserved.

If Zhao liangze had been like this two years ago, Bai Yueran knew that she would have immediately agreed to his pursuit.

But now, he had become a better version of him, and she had become the one chasing after him.

Bai Yueran was slightly absent-minded, and said, “I have something important to report to Huo. If you know where he is, please let me know.”

“Something important? What is it?”Zhao liangze looked up at her. “It’s okay to tell you. Huo Shaoheng went to the hospital building to see a patient.”

Bai Yueran understood what he meant. “Huo went to see Xiao Ye?”

Zhao liangze was noncommittal.

Bai Yueran stood up and said softly, “Then I’ll go find Huo. Take Care.”

When she reached the door, she turned around and said,”... Goodbye.”

Zhao liangze did not even raise his head as he focused on his work.

..

The hospital building in the headquarter of Special operation forces’encampment ground was not far from the office building here. Chen lie worked there.

Xiao Ye was Chen Lie’s most important patient recently.

Bai Yueran hurried over. It was already evening.

It was early September. The grass in front of the hospital building was still green, but there was a hint of autumn in it.

The setting sun was shining yellow, like a blanket covering the lawn.

Bai Yueran stood across the lawn. She looked up and saw Huo Shaoheng pushing a wheelchair slowly along a tree-lined path beside the lawn.

There was a beautiful girl in a white striped hospital gown with neatly cut short hair sitting in the wheelchair.

It was Xiao Ye.

Xiao Ye was protecting gu nianzhi, but the gangsters had shot her in all four limbs and had knocked her unconscious in a pool of blood.

She had already woken up.

Chen Lie’s medical skills were brilliant, and he had reconnected her arms and legs.

However, the tendons in her left hand had been broken and were not healing well. Her legs were also recovering, and the wound was too big for her to walk.

Xiao Ye was expressionless at the moment. She sat in her wheelchair and looked ahead quietly.

Bai Yueran stood in front of her and looked for a while before walking over with a sigh.

“Huo Shao.”She nodded with a smile and said to Xiao Ye, “Xiao Ye, are you feeling better?”

Xiao Ye looked up at Bai Yueran with a dazed look in her eyes. She nodded slowly,”... okay.”

Huo Shaoheng knew that Bai Yueran would never visit her for no reason, so he looked at her inquisitively.

Bai yueran immediately said, “Huo Shao, there’s something I want to report to you.”

Xiao Ye came back to her senses and quickly said, “Go ahead, I’m going back first.”

She turned on the button on her wheelchair, turned around, and went back to the hospital building.

Huo Shaoheng was worried, so he called the nurse over to push Xiao Ye away.

Looking at Xiao Ye’s back in the wheelchair, Bai Yueran felt her heart clench. She asked quietly, “Huo Shao, what will Xiao Ye do in the future? Will she change careers?”

“I respect her decision.”Huo Shaoheng didn’t want to talk about Xiao Ye anymore. He looked away and calmly looked at Bai Yueran. “Director Bai, why are you looking for me?”

Bai Yueran looked around.

It was dusk, and the sunset was slowly dissipating in the horizon. The avenue was quiet, and not many people came and went.

She said in a low voice,”... I just went to see my aunt.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Huo Shaoheng narrowed his sharp eyes. “You just went to see Bai Jinyi? Why?”

Bai Yueran said frankly, “My aunt came to see me and said she wanted to redeem herself.”

Huo Shaoheng smiled. “If you want to plead on behalf of your aunt, you can save your energy. I’m very busy.”With that, he walked away.

“Huo Shao!”Bai Yueran called out to him from behind. “My aunt told me about important clues, and I recorded them. I didn’t mean to plead on behalf of my aunt. I just wanted to let you hear it. It might be useful in finding miss gu.”

Huo Shaoheng immediately stopped in his tracks and turned to look at her.”... You recorded what your Auntie Said?”

Bai Yueran nodded.

Huo Shaoheng immediately brought her back to his office.

Zhao Liangze was slightly surprised to see Bai Yueran enter with Huo Shaoheng, but he didn’t say anything and helped them close the office door.

In Huo Shaoheng’s private office, Bai Yueran sat in front of him. She turned on the recording on her phone and played it for Huo Shaoheng to listen to.
