C124 (1/2)
”Yan'er …”
Zhuo Weidong tried to call out Zi Yan's name, how he wished someone would answer him.
But the third floor was empty. Other than the ringing of the phone, there was no other sound. Liu Lei also ran up to the third floor.
In the bedroom, Zi Yan's phone was lying in the middle of the bed with her pajamas on the bed.
The bathroom door was open. Zhuo Weiting walked inside, leaving his dirty clothes in the laundry basket, but there was no one there.
”Yan'er, Yan'er …”
Zhuo Weitang yelled like a madman from upstairs. He even opened the wardrobe to look for someone.
”A-Ting, did you get kidnapped when you were bathing?”
Liu Lei walked into the bathroom to take a look.
”Shut up, I'm telling you to watch. What do you think?”
The image of Zi Yan bathing and being held hostage by a few men holding a spear appeared in Zhuo WeiTing's mind.
”A-Ting, don't get so worked up. There's no fighting at the scene. Maybe it's not as bad as you think?”
Liu Lei's heart was also in turmoil, but his good friend's mood was already unstable. He had to restrain himself.
”If anything happens to Yan'er, I will just ask you. We will not be accepting any projects from District 51.”
He went back into the bathroom, confident that Yan'er would leave some clues behind.
”A-Ting, don't be rash. We can call them over and ask if it's related to them. It won't be too late to make a decision after that.”
As Liu Lei said this, he took the initiative to make a call. After all, he was the one who answered this project at the beginning.
Zhuo WeiTing finally saw the clue when he was at the back of the bathroom, it was written by Zi Yan using her nails to dig into the meat.
There were only 51 letters, and although it was impossible to tell who had done it, at least they knew it had something to do with it.
Outside, Liu Lei's phone also had some news.
”A-Ting, we're in big trouble. Is your sister an expert in biology?”
Liu Lei asked after hanging up.
”What does this have to do with Yan'er?”
Zhuo Wei Ting's heart skipped a beat. Wasn't the matter of Zi Yan becoming an assassin settled already?
”I'm not sure about the details, but it seems like Yan'er was invited to the Pentagon. This has nothing to do with our project, it has to do with Yan'er's abilities.”
Liu Lei looked at Zhuo Weitang and believed that he should understand.
”I know. At the Pentagon, who's in charge of this?”
He really did not want to find a person who would definitely kill him.
”This, I'm afraid we'll have to look for the supreme leader. It's just that we might not be able to find it.”
Liu Lei said with a bitter face.
”I don't care what method you use, I must have Yan'er come out. Even if you have to look for the President, you have to.”
Zhuo Wei Ting glared at Liu Lei, he had always believed that this matter was related to the project for the 51st region. Yan'er had left the dark night for almost a year, and nothing had happened at all, so how could she suddenly be invited by the military?
”Sigh, I'm just trying. I'm afraid that even if I find the President, I won't be able to do anything. You know, this military …”
”You don't have to tell me that. I just need to find the person who can speak.”
Zhuo Weitang covered his shoulder in annoyance.
”Rest first, I'll contact you. I hope we can find my sister-in-law as soon as possible.”
As Liu Lei said this, he went into his study and turned on Zhuo WeiTing's computer.
It's hard to say, but it's not hard to do. They're big taxpayers, and they've been working with the government, so it's not hard to see the President.
After Liu Lei contacted them, he agreed to meet with them at the White House at 4: 30 in the afternoon. They only had ten minutes.
Without a second word, Zhuo Weitang changed into his formal attire and prepared to leave. However, it was still early in the morning.
”Shall we eat first? I haven't eaten since morning. Even if I don't eat, brother, you are a patient and you need to replenish your energy. ”
Liu Lei said with a bitter face. Otherwise, if Zi Yan's life or death was uncertain, he would definitely ask to eat first.
Only hamburgers were allowed.
At 4 PM in the afternoon, Zhuo Weiting and Liu Lei arrived at the White House. The president was very busy and had no time to spare, so he began his first class career.
If it was about business, he would have left a long time ago. But now that it was related to Yan'er's life, he had to endure it.
At four-thirty, the president showed up on time. As time was limited, Zhuo could only make a long story short. He only had one request, and that was Yan-Er.
”Mr. Zhuo, this is a military matter, I might not be able to handle it.”
It was hard to tell if the president was being too humble or if he was really in a difficult situation. No matter what, he was still the president of a country, but there was actually something that he couldn't care less about.
”Mr. President, my wife is innocent. She is just an ordinary student. I don't understand why the military would want to capture her.”
Zhuo Weitang's face was dark. If even the President didn't care, then what was the point of being the President?
”I'll call and see if they let her go. I'm not sure if your wife did something against the interests of the country.”
The President tried to hide it.
”Zi Yan will not do that, if you don't release her, you can bear the consequences.”
Zhuo Weitong gritted his teeth and said.
If they really wanted to kill him like that, he would have to kill them. At least until now, no one would dare to do so. Coincidentally, this matter could be used to test and kill them.
”Mr. Zhuo, are you threatening me?”
the President said grimly.
I don't know what your hidden agenda is, and I don't want to know. But if you hurt my wife, then, even if I have to risk my life and go all out with TNS, I will still find out.
President, Zhuo Weitang was not afraid. So what if he threatened him? As long as the price was reasonable, he could still sell the President's life.
The President didn't say anything. He glared at Zhuo Weiting and left.
Five minutes later, someone from the President's office came out.
Their reason was that the military felt that Zi Yan had done some illegal research, heavily damaging the national defense and was about to be detained for trial.
”A-Ting, calm down. It's alright, Ziyan will be fine. They might just be trying to scare Ziyan, and nothing will happen to her.”
