Chapter 1305 Rivalry(1/3)
On the night they arrived in Kiev, Weiyan and Makar, with the help of Anna and her friends, received Carlos and his legal team who hurriedly arrived at the airport.
It can be seen that lawyer Carlos really intends to help. In addition to Carlos and lawyer Horta, who had briefly worked with Coco for a few days, there are 7 other people who came with him.
lawyer.
What Wei Ran and Makar didn't expect the most was that there was even a lawyer who was an Ukrainian-American.
Now that Carlos had a translator, Wei Ran became a spectator. Similarly, at his reminder, Makar also handed over all the work of answering the police questions to Carlos and his team.
"Makar, I have a question that I forgot to ask."
At the entrance of the hotel, Wei Ran and Makar assigned rooms to lawyer Carlos and his team and sent them to the elevator. Then they invited Anna to sit in the lounge area of the lobby and gave each other one of them brought from China.
cigarette.
"what is the problem?"
Makar took the cigarette, lit it up and took a puff and asked, but he didn't notice at all that the blond middle-aged man sitting back to back with him on the other sofa seemed to be eavesdropping on their conversation.
Wei Ran also asked as if he hadn't noticed the man, "Can Mrs. Uma swim?"
"Probably not"
Makar shook his head uncertainly, "I have never seen my mother swim. A few years ago, when our lives first improved, Jessica and I took her to the beach, but she didn't even dare to ride a motorboat.
.”
After hearing this, Wei Ran was silent for a moment and then said, "Makar, you need to have a good rest today. Lawyer Carlos will follow you to the Kiev Police Station early tomorrow morning.
You can completely trust Attorney Carlos, so if the police ask you any questions, you'd better let Attorney Carlos answer them on your behalf."
"I know." Makar, with red eyes, nodded.
"Go upstairs and rest first, and remember to tell your wife that she is safe."
After speaking, Wei Ran shook his phone and said, "I'm going to contact a friend to see if I can find any clues about Mrs. Uma along the Dnieper River. Frankly speaking, I don't trust the police in Kiev."
“Kiev police really cannot be trusted”
Anna, who was sitting next to Weiran and scrolling through her cell phone, mocked, "Those losers can't even find the things they lost in their own homes. We might as well count on stray dogs on the roadside."
"I'll be with you tomorrow..."
"You have to stay"
Wei Ran pointed to the top of his head, "You have to be with Lawyer Carlos and the others. This is the only place you can help."
"Okay...okay"
Makar nodded eagerly, "Victor, Anna, thank you for your help, I..."
"There's no need to say any polite words." Wei Ran waved his hand, "Go upstairs and have a rest."
He and Anna sent Makar into the elevator. Wei Ran breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Anna, you should go home and rest early."
"I won't go back"
Anna shook the room card in her hand and said jokingly, "I will also stay in the hotel today. Victor, I'm afraid you don't know, right? Now I have become your rumored lover."
"Uh...sorry"
Wei Ran grinned in embarrassment, because the Hela organization was deliberately hyping up gossip about her, so this girl would inevitably be affected.
Although he had anticipated this situation, he had to do this in order to divert his attention.
"no need to say sorry"
Anna said as she pressed the switch of another elevator, "This scandal has helped me avoid a lot of trouble. I was just scolding a few scumbags who had been chasing me before."
Being used as a shield?
Wei Ran muttered to himself and was about to say something when Diane, whom he had just contacted on the way back from the airport, also called.
Since the girl was also going to stay in the hotel, Wei Ran simply followed her into another elevator and answered Diane's call at the same time.
"Victor, let's keep the story short."
Diane, who always speaks straightforwardly, said simply, "I have just contacted a friend who can help you. They are earth diggers themselves and also run a sand dredging factory by the Dnieper River in Cherkasy. They
There are five sand dredgers operating on the Dnieper River every day, and they can definitely help you."
After pausing for a moment to take a breath, Diane continued, "For the specific situation, please contact the person in charge directly later. I have already sent you her phone number."
"Excuse me Diane, thank you for your help."
Wei Ran said gratefully that although it was fake that Mrs. Uma fell into the water this time, the help and friendship these friends gave him were real - just like he was really helping Makar.
"I will also arrive in Kyiv tomorrow"
Diane ignored Wei Ran's thanks and said, "I will help you contact more friends by then."
"I'm not welcome"
Wei Ran's tone became more and more grateful, "Send me your flight information later, and I'll pick you up at the airport tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow," Diane said and simply hung up the phone. Later, Wei Ran also received a message.
"Anna, we may have to go to the airport to pick up a friend tomorrow." Wei Ran said apologetically.
"no problem"
While Anna was speaking, she was the first to step out of the elevator, "I live next door to you. If you need anything, just knock on my door anytime."
Watching the girl walk into her room, Wei Ran swiped the card to open the door. As if he didn't notice his briefcase that seemed to have been turned over, he sat down on the sofa, yawned and dialed Diane.
He then turned on the hands-free phone and placed it on the table, while he lit a cigarette again.
"Hello, I'm Nadia."
As soon as the call was connected, a woman on the other end said, "Are you the famous playboy Victor?"
"I am indeed Victor, but I am not a playboy." Wei Ran corrected the minor mistakes in the other party's words while laughing and crying.

On the other end of the phone, the woman who called herself Nadia said simply, "I have seen the news about the kidnapping case that happened on the bridge on TV a few days ago.
Frankly speaking, my friends and I run a sand dredging plant in Cherkasy, just on the edge of the Dnieper River, and we have five sand dredgers working on the bed of the Dnieper River."
"Is there sand in the Dnieper River?" Wei Ran asked in a strange way.
"Not only is there sand, but there is also a lot of war equipment that sank into the river during World War II." Nadia said nonchalantly, "No matter what we fish out, we won't lose anything."
"Including corpses?"
"Frankly speaking, there is no shortage of fresh corpses in the Dnieper River."
Nadia said bluntly, "The length of the river between Kiev and Cherkasy is about 200 kilometers. It's spring floods now, the river water has risen and the flow rate is very fast.
From the time I saw the news to now, if the poor lady who accidentally fell into the river had not come ashore, she would have probably been washed into the Black Sea."
"From the time you saw the news to now, has your sand dredger encountered fresh corpses?" Wei Ran frowned and asked worriedly.
"Our sand dredgers do not work 24 hours a day."
Nadia replied, "During the time period you just mentioned, we did not notice any corpses floating over. However, for the sake of Sister Diane, I will arrange for our boat to stay on the river to search.
, as long as the corpse floats..."
"Nadia, is it possible that Mrs. Uma is still alive?" Wei Ran asked with a hint of hope.
"Totally impossible"
Nadia said unceremoniously, "It's spring floods now. Let alone that lady, even if Kolochikova fell from such a high bridge, she would drown in the end.
The best we can do is find an incomplete body, and there is a high chance that we won’t even find the body.”
As if she felt that her words were too realistic and hurtful, the woman named Nadia added, "In short, my boat will always be on the river to help you recover any corpses you find. In addition, I will also help you
Find four vehicles and search upstream and downstream along the edge of the river."
"I'm causing trouble for you."
Wei Ran paused and said, "No matter what the final result is, when your people search along the river to Kiev, I will prepare a thank you."
"I heard from Diane that you are still a historian?" Nadia asked, changing the subject.
"I am a historian first," Wei Ran said helplessly, "As for the rumors on the Internet, those are all false."
"Okay Mr. Historian"
Nadia didn't seem to care about these details, "Anyway, if you want to thank me. If my people can find the body of the lady, how about you owe me a favor?"
"What if you don't find it?" Wei Ran asked.
"At least we can be friends"
Nadia said frankly, "There is no digger who is not willing to become friends with historians."
"In that case, it's settled."
Wei Ran happily agreed. On the premise that he had guessed that there was probably a bugging device in this room, even if he was unwilling, he had to accept the favor happily.
What's more, he didn't believe that the man arranged by Nadia could find Chechnya along the Dnieper River.
