Gu Sisi suppressed her panic and told the two of them the ins and outs of the matter.
"I can't do much about this..." Jiang Lihao's voice was a bit low. He had no backing now and was just an ordinary person.
Chen Fang fell into deep thought and shook his head. "If that's the case, I think Mr. Huo must have made arrangements for himself. There shouldn't be too much trouble... right!"
He said the last word with a bit of uneasiness.
"Anyway, the most important thing now is to find a way to see Brother Huo." Jiang Lihao stood up and said to Gu Sisi, "Sister-in-law, this matter can only be left to you. You're his family, and it's legally allowed."
Chen Fang also nodded, agreeing with Jiang Lihao's decision.
"Madam, we need to know Mr. Huo's plan first so that we can cooperate conveniently."
Gu Sisi closed her eyes and pursed her lips. When she opened them again, her originally panicked eyes suddenly became firm. She nodded. "Okay, I'll go."
"Then I'll make arrangements first." Everyone's faces were full of solemnity.
Jiang Lihao murmured, "I'll contact some acquaintances and see if there are any in the police station to investigate the truth of this matter."
Everything was arranged, and everyone took their respective responsibilities.
She had never thought such a day would come.
But now Huo Cheng was on the other side of the glass, wearing prison clothes. Gu Sisi's eyes were full of anxiety. Taking advantage of the prison guard not looking this way, she mouthed, "Can I do anything?"
She had never been so eager to do something to get him out of prison.
Huo Cheng still hung his head, his expression unreadable. He gently shook his head, looked straight at Gu Sisi for a moment, then averted his eyes.
The meaning was clear. Huo Cheng didn't want her to get involved.
Gu Sisi's heart was full of pain. Did he get angry because she had lied to him?
Thinking of this, Gu Sisi felt weak.
Just then, the prison guard cast a puzzled look over. Gu Sisi quickly picked up the phone receiver. Huo Cheng also slowly put the receiver to his ear.
"Why?" Gu Sisi's voice was full of grievance.
"For no reason. Take good care of yourself." Huo Cheng was concise.
He blinked a few times. In Gu Sisi's shocked eyes, Huo Cheng hung up the phone, stood up, and said to the prison guard beside him, "Let's go!"
"Is it over already?" The prison guard had just come not long ago.
Huo Cheng nodded. "There's nothing to talk about."
The prison guard said no more and escorted Huo Cheng back to the prison. Gu Sisi sat in the visiting room, watching their departing backs.
Until the last moment, Huo Cheng didn't look back at her.
When Gu Sisi walked out, opened the car door, and got in.
The two men looked a bit strange. Why was it so fast?
"What did Brother Huo say?" Jiang Lihao asked with expectation in his eyes.
Chen Fang beside him also stared closely at the young mistress, waiting for her answer.
Gu Sisi didn't raise her head since getting in the car. She weakly supported her forehead and whispered, "He refused to talk to me."
The two didn't hear clearly and looked at each other. Finally, Jiang Lihao asked again.
"What did you say?"
Gu Sisi covered her eyes, raising her voice a bit. She said with difficulty, "He didn't say much, but it's obvious that he doesn't want me to get involved."
This time, the two heard clearly. Gu Sisi's voice was even trembling.
The two didn't dare to ask further.
Back in his cell, Huo Cheng closed his eyes lightly, looking calm. In this environment, he didn't look the least bit embarrassed.
Suddenly, a sound of footsteps approached, followed by a noisy commotion.
"Someone wants to interrogate you. Hurry up!" The door was opened.
Huo Cheng opened his eyes. There was a mist in his eyes, making it hard to tell what he was thinking.
He was taken to the interrogation room and sat on the chair, handcuffed again. He looked at the handcuffs with a dark look in his eyes.
The door of the room opened, and there was a sound of footsteps.
"I really rushed here as fast as I could. If I hadn't received your message, I might still be outside now."
Following this familiar voice, Huo Cheng looked up and called out, "Officer Gao."
It turned out that this person who could liven up the atmosphere and was now going to interrogate Huo Cheng was Officer Gao, whom they had met many times before. If Gu Sisi saw him, she would definitely recognize him at once.
"I'm late. Sorry." It was the first time he had seen Mr. Huo like this. Originally, he wanted to talk about his hardships, but looking at Mr. Huo's current situation, he swallowed all his words.
Huo Cheng nodded and said seriously, "I need your help."
"Do you have a plan?" A look of surprise appeared on Officer Gao's simple and honest face.
...
"This is just... You don't care about yourself at all!" Officer Gao frowned.
It turned out that there were really his fingerprints on that bag of drugs.
When Huo Cheng was about to go to find Gu Sisi, he saw a sneaky figure sneaking into Gu Sisi's lounge. Before he could react, the person left furtively.
He went in and searched around but didn't find anything wrong.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard the siren outside. He immediately felt something was wrong and conducted a quick and thorough search again.
This time, he really found something. When Huo Cheng saw the bag of drugs, he knew there must be a problem. He immediately wiped it once, then hesitated for a moment and still left his fingerprints on it.
Then, when those people rushed in, he left the room.
It was precisely because of the fingerprints on that bag of things that Gu Sisi was able to leave, while he was here.
"Now the physical evidence is all there. There's really no way to solve this." Officer Gao frowned and then sighed.
With Mr. Huo's ability, he really didn't seem like the kind of person who would make such a mistake!
But since the thing had already happened, they could only deal with it as it came.
"Okay, then I'll go and think of some ways now." Officer Gao was about to stand up.
"I already have a plan." A voice stopped him from leaving.
Officer Gao looked puzzled. "What?"
Huo Cheng scanned the surroundings. After making sure there were no other monitors in the room, he told Officer Gao his method.
He kept nodding. After hearing the last word, he grinned and said, "Then can we start now?"
Huo Cheng nodded. Officer Gao, who had already reached the door, suddenly turned back and clicked his tongue a few times. "These petty tricks of those who are against you really can't catch your eye!"
There was a reason for Officer Gao's admiration. Logically speaking, Mr. Huo wasn't without a way out. It's just that compared to this current method, it would be much slower.
He walked to an office with his hands behind his back and knocked on the door a few times.
The door opened. The person inside saw him, frowned in confusion, and looked at him suspiciously, then immediately returned to normal.
The person said unhurriedly, "Do you have something to see me about?"
Officer Gao nodded, then spread his hands and took a few steps back. Looking at the sign on the door, he asked puzzledly, "If it's not you, who else could it be?"
Officer Liang's face darkened, and he said coldly, "Then come in!"
Everyone in the station knew that the two didn't get along, but now Officer Gao came and sat in his office. Officer Liang really couldn't refuse.
The tea was changed cup after cup. Officer Liang became a bit impatient and interrupted Officer Gao, who was recalling the past and every case in the station with him.
