The call record of the unknown number shows that the last call was a week ago, lasting 3 minutes and 20 seconds. Liang Yi communicated with the other party for a long time. Some things can be explained clearly in one sentence, but they can be very cumbersome and lengthy. Lin Nian is not too sure.
He knew exactly what information the two people exchanged during the three-and-a-half-minute call, and he wouldn't ask in depth because there was no need.
But if Lin Nian didn't ask, it didn't mean that Ryoichi didn't say anything. He put down his phone and hung it by his side, "You didn't mention anything about her to me when you came here last time."
"I just don't think it's necessary."
"It's really not necessary." Liang nodded, "She actually has always had big problems. I knew from the first time I met her that some things cannot be hidden after all."
"Then you still believed what she said?" Lin Nian didn't know what happened between Liang Yi and Mandy, but he could feel that the relationship between the two parties was not very friendly, but he didn't know the source of this unfriendly atmosphere.
"She will lie about some things, but not about some things. She should tell the truth about you." Ryoichi said, "I don't know how she got my phone number. She was calling my cell phone.
Then tell me about the trouble you encountered, and asking me to do her a favor can be regarded as doing you a favor."
"Contact the head of the Uesugi family." Lin Nian understood what happened next, "Even if you contact Eri through some means, she will not believe you. There are very few people she can trust. Mandy should more or less
Count it as half.”
"In the restaurant, I asked the waiter to give the head of the Uesugi family a mobile phone. On the other end of the phone was Mandy Gonzalez, who was already online. I don't know the specific content of her chat with the head of the Uesugi family, but her
The rhetoric is indeed effective. After the call ended, the Uesugi family head was convinced that you were in big trouble and only she could help you." Ryoichi said calmly, "The Uesugi family head thinks that you are her friend, and friends should help each other.
, because you have helped her, she will do her best to help you... Do you know that when the young master first discovered that she had run away from home, he caught her back from the airport."
"Should I be glad that it is Eriyi who is standing in front of me now?" Lin Nian couldn't help but sigh.
"It's impossible for the head of the Uesugi family to leave Tokyo, so don't worry." Ryoichi shook his head, "It's you, have you figured out what to do tomorrow?"
"Probably." Lin Nian nodded and gave a mocking response.
Liang Yi looked at Lin Nian's expression for a while, then looked away and said calmly, "You have your own plans, and I don't think this kind of trouble will really bring you down."
"Would you like to go in and rest for a while?" Lin Nian invited Liang Yi into the Norton Hall again.
"No." Ryoichi declined slowly, "I came to the headquarters as a witness appointed by the Japanese branch at the hearing, and the investigation team arranged a place for me to rest."
"How can you be considered a member of the investigation team?" Lin Nian couldn't help but said with a low smile.
"Neutral." Liang glanced at him and handed him the phone in his hand, "I think you have questions to ask the person on the other side of the phone."
Lin Nian was silent when he took the phone. Liang Yi saw that he had bigger worries and nodded slightly, "I will report to your superiors first. If there is anything, you can contact me through this phone. I am saved in it."
The call from the other phone.”
"Finally." He paused here and looked into Lin Nian's eyes. "I'm sorry about your sister. But you and I are different. You deserve a better ending."
"Yeah." Lin Nian didn't talk too much on this topic.
"In addition, I think you need to pay attention to some troubles that should be unexpected for you." Ryoichi also simply mentioned another matter, "As the Japanese branch, we will play the role of witnesses in this hearing. We can serve as witnesses.
It means other people can too.”
"You mean..."
"There was a person traveling with me in the same cabin on the way here by train, who should also be a representative attending the hearing as a witness." Ryoichi said, "She was picked up by a group of people from your headquarters' executive bureau as soon as she got off the train.
, I have never seen her around here, you should be clear about what this means."
"It shouldn't be a big problem," Lin Nian said.
"No, my intuition tells me that she should be a problem you should be wary of." Ryoichi said slowly.
Seeing Ryoichi being so serious, Lin Nian also started thinking, "What are the characteristics of the person traveling with you? Let me see if I can identify her."
"Female, long black hair, one-armed, very dangerous." Ryoichi frowned and whispered, "...No, it should be particularly dangerous. I have only encountered similar feelings in very few people, and dangerous.
The young master who is captured and killed by bloodline criminals counts as one... and so do you."
When he heard the keywords female and one-armed, Lin Nian probably knew who the person Ryoichi warned him about was indeed beyond his expectation. Who would have thought that she would appear here?
If what Ryoichi said is true, and the other party attends the hearing as a witness like Ryoichi, then things will really get into trouble... As expected, countermeasures are being actively carried out here, and the investigation team also has its own plans.
"Is she in trouble?" Liang Yi asked, sensing Lin Nian's gradually sinking mood.
"Okay, I admit that she is indeed very troublesome." Lin Nian nodded slowly, "She knows a lot of things."
"I can't kill her head on, but I can try it secretly, provided I know where she lives here." Liang Yi said softly, "Do you need to take action? I can do it very cleanly."
Lin Nian had no doubt about Okubo Ryoichi's "skills" that he had trained in that hellish place at the Seraki Hachi Family. He also had no doubt that if he had agreed to it tonight, there would be an incredible explosion or poisoning somewhere in Kassel Academy.
But this time Ryoichi picked the wrong target. The one-armed girl couldn't be eliminated with a simple assassination.
"Don't make random plans." Lin Nian raised his hand and held his shoulder.
Seeing that Lin Nian was not prepared for this, Liang Yi took advantage of the situation and said, "I'm going to report to your enforcement department soon, so I won't talk more. The next time we meet is at the hearing."
"I'll see you at the hearing then." Lin Nian pressed the other party's arm hard.
Liang Yi also pressed Lin Nian's shoulder with his right hand, took half a step back and nodded to him, "See you at the hearing."
After finishing speaking, Liang Yi and Lin Nian said goodbye briefly. Lin Nian watched him leave and then looked at the mobile phone left in his hand, which still showed the unknown number.
After thinking about all the information he had exchanged with Ryoichi before, he lowered his head and closed his eyes for a long time. When he opened his eyes, his thumb was already on the dial button.
Press down.
—
The phone in my hand dialed "Dudu" and I waited for about fifty seconds. Just when the phone was about to hang up automatically, the other party connected.
Lin Nian picked up the phone and put it to his ear. Just as he was about to say something, a familiar girl's voice rang on the opposite side in advance. Unfortunately, it was a pre-recorded phone call.
"Hello, let me guess, it must be junior brother on the other side! Unfortunately, this is a pre-recorded call recording. Senior sister, I am busy now. As for what I am busy with, it is not convenient to tell you. After all, you know
, your senior sister, I have a lot of secrets! As for why you made this call to me through this mobile phone, I guess you must want to ask about the helpers who came to my door? "
Lin Nian listened to the still frivolous and annoying female voice, and the annoying appearance of the useless blonde girl seemed to appear in front of him again.
"How should I put it? I informed a small part of it, but there are also other people who are operating behind the scenes. After all, there are many people who want you to win this hearing. It's a pity that I can't come to help you in person.
Otherwise, the cats and dogs on the school board, even the wholesale ones from my own mother, are not enough for me to scold at the hearing..."
"By the way, you should know something about your sister." The frivolity on the other end of the phone gradually calmed down and began to change into a serious tone.
"The golden retriever bastard should have told you about your sister, right? Uh... Why do I feel that the word golden retriever bastard is a bit wrong... But now you should also know why I hid so many things from you, some things
I said in advance that big problems would indeed occur.
I remember that I used to hate my elders telling me that this is for your own good, this is for your own good and so on. I always said to myself that you are so good for me. Can you guarantee that I will be fine in the future? But now I have gradually begun to
I realized that actually there is nothing wrong with saying "For your own good", it just needs to be said in another way. It should be said that "For your own good".
I can’t guarantee that doing this will lead to a good development for you, but I can at least guarantee that things won’t get worse and worse, and this is the only thing I can do.”
"Don't try to come to me... Well, what you said makes me look like the heroine of some romance novel. You wouldn't come to me under normal circumstances... Fuck it! I really regret not taking a step earlier.
I cheated on you, and I gave someone else an advantage." The girl in the recording suddenly became furious, and Lin Nian just remained silent. He couldn't tell whether the girl was serious or pretending to be relaxed to lighten the atmosphere.
"Anyway, senior sister, let me give you a final wake-up call. You should be aware of the nature of this hearing." The girl's voice on the phone became more serious, and Lin Nian began to listen carefully.
"Yes, that's right, the hearing is just a cover, a cover to delay time. While you are being dragged to the hearing, another battlefield has begun, and the real disaster has entered the countdown to incubation. I am now
We are also looking for the entrance to that battlefield."
"Junior brother," the girl in the recording said, "This is an opportunity, an opportunity to defeat that guy head-on... You know who I am talking about."
"We have always followed each other's pace, but this time, I found an opportunity, and I gradually saw his layout clearly. This was the only time in a long time that I truly understood his layout ideas.
.I understand his chess moves."
"The fact that you were delayed in the quagmire of the hearing is a very important thing in his plan. You can't get out of this quagmire, which means that if you go down this road, you will lose anyway."
Lin Nian remained silent because the other party was right. He also knew that the hearing was a trap, but he could not escape from this trap and even had to jump in fully armed.
"So now there should be someone to take your place and help you do what you should do when you are unable to move..."
The girl's voice on the phone softened.
"I'm really grateful to you, junior brother. Do you still remember that face-to-face transaction between you and the 'Emperor'?"
Lin Nian raised his head in silence, listening to Mandy's voice on the phone slowly speaking, "That time, she agreed to your conditions, which was her biggest arrogance and mistake. Senior sister, I will prove this to you, just
Soon!"
Her voice was cold and firm, not like what the senior sister Lin Nian knew would say, and made people feel a little strange.
"The last thing." The girl on the phone suddenly changed her attitude, and said with a mean smile, "If you really pull your crotch and lose at the hearing tomorrow, don't cry! It will be very embarrassing!"
The phone recording ends, and only the busy signal of hang up is left on the receiver.
Looking at the phone screen, Lin Nian was silent for a long time and turned off the phone screen.
Don't really die, senior sister.
He muttered silently in a voice that only he could hear.
