Tracking down Ya They could not afford to rest easy just yet

That night, Huo Shaoheng was unable to sleep, and he did not knohy He tossed and turned on the bed in the guest roo up It was still theto the military archive to look up so could be found on the internet nowadays, but those who truly understood how the internet worked knew that the netas full of vulnerabilities For exaze, one of his personal secretaries, knew a hundred different methods to crack network security systeh for him to break into any computer, phone, or tablet

The Iovernment network and databases It was for these reasons that a large number of top secret files existed only on paper They had never been uploaded to the internet The archive even had information recorded on bamboo and stone Those files would outlast thehout the night It was only when thedawned that he finally laid his head on the table for a quick nap He akened later by the sound of gentle knocking of the archive staff on duty at the door

The archives were blocked off fronals It was not possible to call so as they were inside and there were no landlines available either The only ood old-fashi+oned yelling loud enough to be heard through the door and walls

“Sir! Sir! Your personal secretary is looking for you It’s urgent!”

The insistent knocking on the door finally awakened Huo Shaoheng, who had just dozed off He pulled hiether, and went to the bathroom to splash cold water onto his face Then, he looked at his watch and found that it was already eight in theas soon as he walked out of the archives

It was Yin shi+xiong, his other personal secretary

“What is it?”

“Sir, Miss Gu’s interview is today! Her university has been calling non-stop Even Professor He hient He had personally gone to C University’s Faculty of Law departo to obtain sick leave for Gu Nianzhi; getting Professor He Zhichu to postpone the interview for three days had been no sain, Yin shi+xiong did not iine that Professor He would think favorably of Gu Nianzhi

And to think he had even gone so far as to butter Professor He up by telling him that Gu Nianzhi had always “admired” himrubbed his brow, and said, “I’ll call Chen Lie”

Chen Lie took the call Before Huo Shaoheng could say a word, Chen Lie was already saying, “Boss, Nianzhi still isn’t awake, but her fever has gone down a little”

“What the hll is going on? Please telland looked up at his house, exasperated

He got out a cigarette and began to smoke

Chen Lie was also frustrated with the situation “Boss, I guarantee there is absolutely nothing wrong with her I’ve beenher heartbeat and pulse 24/7, and I test her blood every two hours, too”

“You’ve been drawing blood samples from her every two hours? What do you think she is, your private blood bank? Cut her up and make specihly uncharacteristic of Huo Shaoheng, as known for being calm and collected

Chen Lie could not refute this He covered his face and resigned hi hung up and was about to call Yin shi+xiong when the voice of the call operator cah on his headset “Sir, Professor He of B University Law School called He insists on speaking with you, personally”

Huo Shaoheng thought for a brieffrom one hand, his other hand in a trouser pocket He said, dispassionately, “I’ll take the call”
