40. Bail

The door was pushed open suddenly, and Liu Mei looked at Guo Wen quietly. She knew that the doctor who followed Gao Jin was a dangerous person, but now she didn't care about it. She remembered what Gao Jin said to her when he left in the morning, "Some things happen, you have to face them. Escape is useless."

"Where is him?" Liu Mei looked at Guo Wen who was looking at him coldly in front of him, and looked at him without fear.

"It has nothing to do with you." Guo Wen answered this question that was definitely a very scheming woman in his eyes. His voice was cold, "We are leaving, you can take a taxi back by yourself." As he spoke, he pulled out a thousand Hong Kong dollars from his wallet and still put it on the bedside table, and then threw the bag of clothes in his hand on the bed.

"I want to see him." Liu Mei didn't go to see what Guo Wen threw to her. She just stared at him and bit her lips.

"Sorry, that's impossible." A wave of disgust flashed in Guo Wen's eyes. He hated people who were not self-aware. His eyes became cold. "Listen, no matter whether you are playing a show or being raped, in short, I don't believe you, and Gao Jin won't believe you. He saved you because he is a good person, but I'm not."

"Make a show!" Liu Mei was stabbed to the deepest wound by Guo Wen's words. Her voice was hoarse, and a sad smile appeared on her face. She grabbed the quilt covered with both hands, and her body trembled slightly.

Guo Wen stared at the woman in front of him with a sad expression, without any pity in his eyes. He was a doctor. In his eyes, there were only two types of people who needed him to use a scalpel and those who did not need to use a scalpel. He didn't mind giving this woman some minor surgery.

"How can you say that?" Zhu Neng's voice sounded behind Guo Wen, his expression a little disappointed. At least he felt that it was not a glorious thing for men to bully women, not to mention that Liu Mei was already pitiful.

"Do you believe her?" Guo Wen was angry at a rare moment. He hated men who were easily influenced by women's pitifulness the most. In his eyes, such men are not people who do big things and will die at the hands of women one day.

"I believe in myself." Zhu Neng replied without hesitation. He didn't understand why Guo Wen targeted such a poor woman. Is it just because of his intuition?

"Anyway, I won't let her get involved in our affairs." Guo Wen didn't want to argue with Zhu Neng more. He turned around and looked at Zhu Neng and said, "You decide whether you follow me or not." After that, he walked out of the room without looking back, feeling very confused.

Zhu Neng hesitated for a moment, but in the end he did not leave Guo Wen. An organization did not need the second person. Obestan in Yinying's legend said nothing. He thought so, walked to the woman on the bed, and stumbled, "He is not as cold as you think, but he has always been so careful in doing things. To be honest, I don't believe you too much, but I think I can try to trust you."

Looking at Zhu Neng, who was speaking a little incoherently, Liu Mei spoke, "I know that people like me are not trustworthy at all, and I wouldn't believe it even if I was in his position." After sinking the nightmare experience of last night in the deepest part of her heart, Liu Mei cheered up, and her face returned to her previous ability.

"But I promise you that everything that happened to me is true." Liu Mei's fingers holding the quilt were too hard, and blood oozing out of her nails. The hatred in her eyes made Zhu Neng, who was just watching, feel chilling. He believed that Liu Mei was not lying. If she was really acting, then she could win the Oscar for Best Actress Little Golden Man.

"I ended up like that because I betrayed the information of the original organization." Liu Mei showed a self-deprecating smile in her eyes. She had overestimated herself before and thought that others would not notice her relationship with the Assassin Alliance, but she didn't expect that Gu Shi or Wu Qi would have known it long ago.

Looking at Liu Mei who calmly told her things, Zhu Neng couldn't help but be frightened by what this woman did in the past. When he heard that nearly a hundred men had died at the hands of this woman, he almost regretted that he had not listened to Guo Wen. However, as time went by, he felt that he had made the right decision. At least he felt that Liu Mei was willing to tell her past, whether it was good or bad, that Liu Mei could trust.

"I think they must have tampered with me, so I think you'd better take me to Huang Xiurong's place." Liu Mei knew that Gao Jin saved her, and she knew that Gu Shi never did meaningless things.

"Who is Huang Xiurong?" Zhu Neng listened to Liu Mei's last words and was a little confused about the strange name.

"The one from Huang Tai Sin Temple." Liu Mei replied. She was not used to calling a little girl who was only in her teens aged, even if she was over 100 years old.

"So that's her name." Thinking of the person who was like a little girl who might be even more home-like, Zhu Neng understood. After muttering, he said to Liu Mei, "It's a bit troublesome to be at the police station. You change your clothes first, and then we go to find her. I think she should be able to help us."

"What happened to him?" Liu Mei called out Zhu Neng who was about to walk out, and she was a little worried.

"It's nothing. I just saw a few gangsters collecting protection fees and taught me a lesson. Now I'm taking a record in the police station, I may be accused of intentional injury." Zhu Neng replied, opening the door, and then he saw Guo Wen who was standing at the door and not leaving.

"You have been outside just now." After closing the door, Zhu Neng looked at Guo Wen and asked, his expression a little surprised.

Guo Wen nodded without answering, but his face was not as gloomy as before. "So, you believe her, too." Zhu Neng was a little happy, and he couldn't wait to ask.

"I won't believe her, but I think she might be useful to us." Guo Wen said meaningfully. An organization must have evil people like him to avoid some things.

Zhu Neng didn't say anything, but just laughed. He knew that Guo Wen's personality was destined to be that person, but that's good. With him there, he could make up for his shortcomings.

Soon, Liu Mei walked out of the room. She was wearing a black women's clothing. Although it was just cheap clothes, she looked unexpectedly fit. However, her people still looked very haggard. Although she forced herself to cheer herself up, in the eyes of Guo Wen and Zhu Neng, she was just pretending to be strong. Zhu Neng really wanted to comfort her. Unfortunately, he was an otaku and still couldn't speak to her. As for Guo Wen, he just looked at him coldly.

In the police station, Gao Jin was sitting alone, looking tepid, as if he was on vacation in sunny Hawaii. When the police opened the door and came in for the lawyer he was looking for, he almost thought he had gone to the wrong place.

"My name is Zhao Chuanbo, and I am your defense lawyer." The lawyer wearing a navy blue suit, straight hair, and wearing gold-wired glasses sat opposite Gao Jin and opened his briefcase.

Gao Jin put down the coffee in his hand. He looked at the lawyer in front of him, observing it very carefully, not smiling, his voice was neutral, but a little gloomy. He should be a very home-controlled and scheming person. This is Gao Jin's first impression of his lawyer.

"Please tell me your story again and try to be more careful." Zhao Chuanbo looked at the person in front of him who was trying to defend him. Although Gao Jin, who was tall and tall, looked like an impulsive person, thought of the scene he saw when he pushed the door in, Zhao Chuanbo was sure that his client was not an ordinary character.

Gao Jin admired Zhao Chuanbo's style of acting very much, acted decisively, never talked nonsense, and did not drag on it. He immediately repeated his own affairs.

"This case is actually very simple. As long as Mr. Gao, you are willing to pay, I can ask the police to close the case at any time." After hearing this, Zhao Chuanbo spoke directly and paused, "Of course, if Mr. Gao doesn't want to, I will try my best to defend Mr. Gao in court."

"It's to give those gangsters money and let them withdraw the lawsuit!" Gao Jin quickly understood what Zhao Chuanbo meant, and became interested in this outspoken lawyer in his heart.

"Yes, this is the easiest and most effective method, which can save Mr. Gao's time." Zhao Chuanbo replied expressionlessly, and while he spoke, he looked at his watch.

"Time is the most valuable thing in the world!" Gao Jin looked at Zhao Chuanbo, and he suddenly felt that this lawyer was very good.

Half an hour later, Guo Wen, who arrived at the police station, paid bail for Gao Jin, and also met Zhao Chuanbo, a lawyer with a sinister temperament. When he heard that he could settle the matter immediately with only money, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lawyer Zhao, I'll ask you for the matter." After handing over a blank check to Zhao Chuanbo, Guo Wen and Gao Jin left, and the latter just nodded slightly and did not look at the check.

After walking out of the police station, Gao Jincai asked, "Where did the check come from?"

"The woman you saved has a secret account in the Swiss bank." Guo Wen replied as he looked at Gao Jin, who was a little surprised.
