Chapter 1915 - Three Trials (chapter three, four, and more: “Reading is the only way to be happy in life”+ 2)
Hello, Mr. Major General
Dawn had just broken when Lu Yuan and Lu Jin arrived from the path in the woods.
The two of them went to Peterâs car first and knocked on the door.
Peter saw that they had arrived and opened the car door to greet them. He raised his hand and said, âJust in time, Iâll leave her to you. You girls are too demanding. Iâd rather deal with those people on the other side.â
He gave Gu Nianzhi a sidelong glance and walked forward alone.
Gu Nianzhi saw Lu Yuan and Lu Jin, and the tears she had been holding in for a long time finally rolled down her cheeks.
She jumped out of the car and threw herself into Lu Jinâs arms. She sobbed and whispered,â... dad, Huo Shao was shot just now...â
Lu Yuan sighed and said,â... youâre just too worried. Shaoheng is your fiancé. Would your dad leave him alone? Heâs also wearing a bulletproof vest that your dad designed and made himself.â
Gu Nianzhiâs tears disappeared in an instant, and a happy smile appeared on her face. âDad, is that true? !â
Lu Jin took out a tissue to wipe her tears and said with a sullen face, âItâs fake. I donât see you caring about your poor, helpless, and weak old father.â
Gu Nianzhi:â...â
..
On the other side of tiankeng, Qin Baye was instructing his bodyguards to enter the Soviet Embassyâs car to carry people. He said repeatedly, âBe careful, donât use too much force, donât hurt her...â
The bodyguards were busying themselves as they carried the entire temporary stretcher bed out of the car.
Peter walked over with his eyelids drooping and stood beside him.
Qin Baye then realized that there was another person beside him. He turned his head and did not recognize him.
He immediately became nervous, âWho are you? What are you doing here?â
As he said that, he scolded his bodyguards, âWhat are you all doing? ! You Donât even know that someone is here!â
Peter said expressionlessly, âBoss, we just talked on the phone. How come you donât recognize him in the blink of an Eye?â
Qin Bayeâs pupils suddenly constricted, âYou are the leader of the elite mercenaries? !â
No! That personâs appearance was obviously not like his!
Qin Baye immediately knew that something was wrong.
He had felt this way many times along the way. It was as if a traveler walking in the mountains was being stared at by a ferocious beast. It was like a thorn in his back.
But every time, there was a âRationalâbenefit analysis and the occasional police chase that interrupted his thoughts.
Now, the thought had finally taken shape.
Qin Baye quickly stepped aside and moved away from Peter. He asked cautiously,â... Whereâs Gu Nianzhi? where is she?â
âSheâs still in the car. I locked the car door from the inside. Donât worry, she wonât be able to escape,âPeter said meaningfully.
Qin Baye nodded slightly and said, âYour boss sent me a photo. Did you disguise yourself? You Donât have to do that in front of me.â
Peter smiled and took a step forward. He stretched out his big hand and grabbed Qin Bayeâs arm like a pair of iron pincers. âI didnât disguise myself. This is my true appearance.â
Qin Bayeâs pupils constricted. He pushed Peter Hard, wanting to push him away and hide behind his bodyguards.
However, Peter didnât allow him to dodge. He dodged his push while taking out his gun with his other hand and quickly fired at the few bodyguards who were looking at each other!
Bang Bang Bang!
After a few gunshots, only one bodyguard was still standing. The rest of them were convulsing on the ground.
Blood flowed out from behind them and dyed the dark green grass red.
Peter nodded to the bodyguard who was standing. âCome over and help me tie him up.â
This person actually listened to Peterâs words. He shook out a rope and tied Qin baye up like a dumpling.
Qin Bayeâs entire body trembled. He looked at Peter and then at his âBodyguardâ. Suddenly, he realized, âYou were the one who fired just now! You were the one who shot that Soviet diplomat! You were also the one who kicked him down!â
The âBodyguardânodded and said with a smile, âAlthough the boss is old, his eyesight is not bad. Yes, itâs me.â
He was obviously in cahoots with this fake âMercenary leader Eliteâwho appeared out of nowhere!
Qin Bayeâs face suddenly turned pale. He turned his head to look at the bottomless sinkhole and then at the two smiling men in front of him. He gritted his teeth, he said, âWho asked you to do this? Arenât you just looking for money? â how much money others give you, Iâll give you double! No, three times! Four times! Five times!â
Peter didnât say anything but reached out and pulled Qin Baye back from the edge of the sinkhole. He said, âWhether you want to die or live, itâs not up to you.â
As he said that, he and the other âBodyguardâwent behind Qin Baye and stood on both sides, blocking the possibility of him jumping into the sinkhole. Although the possibility was very low, it was almost negligible.
On the empty space in front of them, the fog finally dispersed.
A group of people walked over from the entrance and gradually appeared in front of them as if they were passing through the clouds.
Qin Bayeâs eyes widened. âYoung master he? ! General he! Why are you here? !â
He made up his mind and turned to look at Peter behind him. He quickly said, âYoung master he! General he! This person is a foreign mercenary! He kidnapped me! Kidnapped Nianzhi! You must not let him go!â
He zhichu scoffed. âHe kidnapped Nianzhi? Qin Baye, you really know how to shift the blame!â
With that, he waved his hand. âBring her up!â
Gu Nianzhi watched from a distance. The person who had brought her up this time was the old man from C City who had set up a trap to capture her!
This person was one of the three people she and Huo Shaoheng had gone to C city to investigate. He was also the last person â Qin Suwenâs father, Qin Huichangâs old friend.
He was younger than Qin Huichang by more than ten years, and of course, he was much younger than Qin Baye, so he didnât look as old as Qin Baye, but he was still over 60 years old.
He Zhichu had handed this man over to he zhichu, and no one knew how much information he had been interrogated about that year.
Gu Nianzhi thought to herself that this man must have given evidence against Qin Baye, so he chengjian had directly interfered in this matter.
Qin Baye saw this man and truly felt that the tide had turned. His legs gave way, and he almost sat down on the ground.
â... how is it? What else can be framed? You can tell us all, so that we wonât have to talk about it a few times to whet everyoneâs appetite,âhe zhichu said coldly and raised his leg to kick that âFriend who forgets his ageâ.
That person staggered a few steps forward, his legs went weak and he knelt down.
Qin Baye glared at this person, he still had to be stubborn. âWhat exactly are you doing? ! Are you going to torture the two of us old people to extract a confession? ! â Iâm telling you, the sky is wide and the net is wide. If you torture the old people, you will have your retribution!â
âThere are no old or young people here. There are only good people and bad people.âHe Zhichu said lightly. âWhatâs wrong with an old person? is an old person superior to others and can get away with it?â
âHaha, if you donât treat an old person well, what about Gu Nianzhi? Can you ignore her too? !âQin Baye raised his head. âGu Nianzhi is still in my hands. If you donât let me go, Gu Nianzhi will die right in front of you!â
Peter snickered behind him. âOld Man, have you forgotten about me?â
Qin Baye didnât even turn to look at him. He said coldly,â... Iâll count to one, two, three. If you donât let me go, Iâll let her die right in front of you!â
âSo powerful? !âHe Zhichu looked at him coldly. âBut Iâm not afraid. What should I do?â
â... Sheâs Your Savior! And sheâs the perfect gene! Donât you guys need her at all? !âQin Baye was about to die, but he did not forget to sow discord.
âSheâs the perfect gene? What time is it? Donât you forget to throw the blame around?âHe zhichu spun the gun in his hand, he pointed it at the âBest friendâkneeling on the ground and said coldly, âYour Daughter, Qin Yaoguang, is the perfect gene. How long do you want to keep this a secret?â
âSheâs Not! She really isnât! Gu Nianzhi is! If you dare to lay a hand on me, Iâll make you regret it for the rest of your lives!â
Qin Baye looked at He Zhichu in fear, then at he chengjian, who had a dark expression on his face. His heart was beating faster and faster, almost jumping out of his throat!
He could only console himself that Gu Nianzhi was still in the car he had provided. When he had arrived, he had detected the signal, and the time bomb was intact.
The car was parked not far away. Even though the kidnapper leader was a fake, he still locked Gu Nianzhi in the car.
Qin Baye was betting that these people didnât know there was something fishy going on in the car!
But his hopes were quickly dashed.
The Sun suddenly rose from the mountains. The morning glow was boundless and covered the forest. There was also sunlight jumping on the grass in the open field in front of them.
Another three people walked towards the direction of the Rising Sun.
One of them was a young girl with delicate features.
She smiled faintly, but there was a dazzling beauty to her. The rising sun had become her embellishment, and the smile on her face was even brighter than the sun.
Qin Baye stared at Gu Nianzhi as if he had seen a ghost. âYou, you, you... how did you get out? !â
Wasnât Peter locking him in the car?
However, he quickly came to his senses. He turned around and glared at Peter. âYou lied to me!â
âOf course I lied to you. You knew I was a fake, and you thought I wouldnât lie to You?âPeterâs eyelids drooped as he slapped Qin Baye. âSpeak properly, donât look around.â
Qin Baye felt dizzy from the slap. He had no choice but to close his eyes and gasp for breath.
Gu Nianzhi came to he zhichuâs side and looked up at his indifferent face. She smiled and said, âYoung master he, thank you for saving me.â
Huo Shaoheng had already told her that he zhichu had arranged for Peter.
The Committee of State Security (KGB) would not have agreed to accept the mission without he zhichu and he chengjianâs help.
Huo Shaohengâs agreement with the Soviets would only last until he used Peterâs identity. He would not be able to fulfill any higher demands.
After all, with his identity, he didnât have any bargaining chips to negotiate with the Soviets at a higher level.
At that moment, he chengjian and he zhichuâs status and identity came into play.
He zhichu still had his hands behind his back and said calmly,â... are you hurt? I scared you.â
After a pause, he added, âQingying is also responsible for this incident. I apologize on her behalf.â
Gu Nianzhi quickly waved her hand. âNo, no, cousin Xie is fine. She would rather be beaten up than tell anyone where I was. I owe her a favor.â
âYou saved her too.âHe zhichu lowered his eyes. âIf the other party hadnât used her to expose the truth, you wouldnât have been so shocked this time.â
âThereâs nothing we can do about it.âGu Nianzhi was very open-minded, âCousin Xie was kept in the dark about a lot of things, so she couldnât have thought like us. Even if she knew there was a problem with the motive behind such a sensational revelation, she wouldnât have thought it would be so serious.â
He zhichu heaved a sigh of relief. âNianzhi, donât speak up for her like that. Youâre making me feel even more guilty.â
âAlright, Young Master He, letâs talk about this later.âGu Nianzhi smiled as she looked at the âOld friendâkneeling in front of her. Her expression darkened, â... What did that person say? Iâm also very curious about the truth of that year.â
There was no doubt that he chengjian and he zhichu had brought this âFriend who forgets ageâto confront Qin Baye because of the truth of the incident with Qin Suwenâs family.
He Zhichu turned around and glanced at Lu Yuan and Lu Jin who were standing behind Gu Nianzhi. He nodded slightly at them.
He chengjian looked at Gu Nianzhi as if he had seen Qin Suwen from the past. Although they looked completely different, the way they spoke and even the way they walked were very similar..
He looked away and said coldly to the person in front of him, âTell me, how exactly did you collude with Qin Baye back then to frame Suwenâs family?â
This person had been interrogated by HE Zhichu for two months and had long been scared out of his wits.
At that moment, he chengjian asked, and he immediately pointed at Qin Baye in front of him and said with trepidation, âIt was him! He was the one who ordered me to do it!â
âYouâre slandering me!âQin Baye was about to charge forward, but Peter grabbed his arm and he still said indignantly, âThis is slander! Show me your evidence!â
Gu Nianzhi was disgusted by Qin Baye. She waved her fist at him. âWhat are you yelling about? ! Do you really think thereâs no evidence after all these years? â do you believe that I can find evidence for you and convince you?â
Peter, who was standing behind Qin Baye, pursed his lips speechlessly.
In his opinion, what evidence was there to find?
The old manâs background proved that he wasnât from the right place. He could just shoot him.
Unfortunately, he did not have the power to make a decision. He could only watch from the sidelines.
Qin Baye was shut up by Gu Nianzhiâs words.
He had seen Gu Nianzhi in court several times and was extremely wary of her talent in the law.
He zhichu said calmly,â... continue.â
The âBest friendâwho was kneeling on the ground was crying bitterly. His hands were propped up on the grass, and his shoulders were shaking as he said, âI was muddle-headed! I was obsessed!â
âBrother Qin has always been very good to me. I shouldnât have watched Qin Baye frame his family for a little money! Iâm guilty! Guilty!â
Qin Baye couldnât help snorting when he heard this, but he still closed his eyes and didnât speak.
Gu Nianzhi raised her eyebrows, âYouâre saying that you knew that Qin Baye framed Qin Suwenâs family, but you just didnât say it? âHow much did Qin Baye pay you to keep your mouth shut?â? âThat mansion in C city was a sky-high price... just the money to keep your mouth shut was worth that much?â
The âOld friendââs shoulders trembled again. He still lowered his head and gritted his teeth, unwilling to reveal the crucial point.
He knew that if he really told the truth, he would be dead.
But none of the people present were people who could be fooled.
Gu Nianzhi took a step forward, she then asked lightly, âQin Suwenâs father, Qin Huichang, was not close to Qin Baye at all. Tell me, how did you convince Qin Huichang to go from refusing to sell the land to agreeing to sell the land?â
This was the key to the whole case.
The âFriendâkneeling on the ground was like a soft bone that had been drained of its strength. It could not even kneel, and immediately collapsed onto the grass.
