Trafford Buyers Club

Chapter 803 Heartstrings
It seems that not only the communication has been disturbed, but even the power transmission in some areas has encountered problems.

When Arnold walked into the public toilet, it was dark all around, only an emergency light inside was on.A Nuo shook his head, and after secretly saying that he was unlucky, he quickly put the backpack on the washbasin, and began to take out clean clothes from it to change.

He was about to take off his shirt, but he seemed to have thought of something at this moment, he just turned up less than half of his clothes, and immediately put them down again, then Arnold carefully looked around.

Finally, he seemed to see a black shadow in the mirror... standing behind him!

Arnold was taken aback, turned around quickly, and immediately felt a sense of horror—behind him, at some point, even quietly, had already stood here.

He could tell that it was a woman... But the woman seemed to have her head down, her long wet hair was hanging loose in front of her face, and her body was also completely soaked.

It seemed like a person who was rescued from the shore after drowning. From the gap in the hair, A Nuo vaguely saw a pair of eyes full of hatred.

The momentary fright caused Arnold to back up and hit the washbasin.His hands subconsciously supported the washbasin, stabilizing his body.And at this moment, the arm of the embarrassed woman in front of her suddenly moved!
It's a western knife - the kind you use to cut steaks!

The western food knife directly touched A Nuo's throat, and the hard touch made A Nuo feel cold.He didn't dare to move for a while, for fear that if the opponent made a further step, he would stab the western food knife into his throat.Then there is only death waiting for him.

"Don't be impulsive!" Arnold shouted nervously!
"Where is it!" The other party screamed and raised his head at the same time.

The faint emergency light in the public toilet shone on her face, which was blue, looking like an evil spirit.A Nuo gasped, and said in horror, "What, where is it?"

"Where!!"

The woman screamed again, rushed forward, and directly pierced some of the western food knife that came out of A Nuo's throat.

But this blunt thing just pressed down on Arnold's skin, causing his skin to sink into the muscle, and it didn't really pierce it-but it was enough to scare a person!
"What... I don't know what you're talking about..." A Nuo took a deep breath, trying not to annoy the other party, "Miss, you... have you misunderstood someone?"

"You... this murderer! Robber!!" The woman was even more excited, like crazy: "You killed Livia and stole my money!! You are a heinous scum!!!"

"Li... Livia?" Arnold was stunned, and then quickly said: "Which woman are you who ran away in the morning!"

The western food knife was pushed in hard again, and Arnold could feel that if the woman exerted force again next time, even something that was not sharp could pierce his throat.

"You know what to ask! You scum!! I'll kill you!!"

"Relax! Relax! Listen to me! Listen to me! I'm not who you said!!" Arnold grabbed the woman's arm for a moment.

His strength as a man is much stronger than that of the woman in front of him. The two of them got entangled in this place, and then fell to the ground at the same time.But this woman went crazy, and Arnold couldn't hold her down.

"Scumbag!!"

"No!! Listen to me!! I'm really not the person you said!" A Nuo hurriedly said: "I'm A Nuo! The scum you mentioned is Haili! My brother! My twin brother! He has the same face as mine, and he does all kinds of bad things!! Please believe me!"

"Scum!!! You still lied to me!!"

"I have evidence!! I have evidence!!" Arnold said with difficulty: "I really have evidence to prove it!"

Arnold finally restrained the woman.He directly pressed the woman's hands on the ground with both hands, and then pressed his body on her body, making the woman unable to move at last, and then he said excitedly: ""

"Listen! You can't fight now! If I just yell a few words, I'll find someone and tell them to call the police over and take you! You see, I didn't do that at all. I even tried to make Calm down! What is this for?"

The woman was still struggling and screaming!

"If you want to prove your innocence, if you also want to find that scumbag in your mouth, relax!"

"You think I'll trust you, you scum!!"

"But you have to believe it now, don't you?" Arnold gasped: "At least you still have a little hope! But miss, if you continue to go crazy, then I have no choice but to call someone! In fact, I am completely There is no need to explain this to you here! You see, I have you under control now, and I can call someone to arrest you at any time, and then you go to the police station, and you may not be able to explain it! Because inside, you may not have to To a fair trial! Right? Think about it! Calm down and think about it carefully, if I were the murderer, would it be necessary for me to tell you this here?"

The strength of women's resistance seems to be smaller.

A Nuo said quickly: "Think about it, if I am who you say, why didn't the police take me away? Because I was not at home last night! The police will only believe it if they find something to prove it I, don't I?"

The woman's reaction weakened a little more.

Seeing that his words seemed to be useful, A Nuo immediately relaxed a little: "Miss, please believe me, okay? I can prove what I said, and maybe it can help you a little."

The woman suddenly stopped moving.

Arno let out a breath and relaxed a little again.But at this time, the daughter suddenly hit A Nuo's eyes with her forehead, and A Nuo let out a pain, and the woman directly opened her mouth to bite A Nuo's palm.

She got a chance to resist, and she got out of Anuo's oppression all at once, then quickly picked up the western knife that fell on the ground, and stood up hastily.

A Nuo also got up quickly, the two of them were less than half a meter apart, and they were in a stalemate, while A Nuo grabbed the place where he was bitten... This woman is really ruthless, directly biting off his skin.

At this time, someone walked into the public toilet.

Seeing this, the woman resentfully threw the western knife in her hand at Anuo, and at the same time knocked the man who came in, and rushed out the door.

"Hey! What the hell is going on? Brother, are you here to fight your girlfriend?"

A Nuo smiled wryly, grabbed the western food knife from the ground, faltered a few words, then lowered his head, ignored the man, and left quickly.

……

……

Along the way, Arnold turned his head and looked around with a vigilant look.

He didn't get on the bus, and the bus system seemed to have stopped a lot at this time.His footsteps were fast, and he walked for more than two hours before walking into the nearest slum across the road.

Arnold seemed to be very familiar with this place, and finally, he came to a simple house.

He took out the key, looked around again, and then opened the door and walked inside—this place seemed to have stopped directly because of the strange storm in the afternoon.

But after a while, the room was lit, probably by lighting something like a candle.

Arnold found something in the room, and then went back to the hall.He had lit a candle on the dining table before, so he pulled out the chair and sat in front of the dining table.

A Nuo let out a breath, and suddenly said: "Miss, are you there?"

He yelled into the darkness, but got no response, but Arnold continued: "Miss, I didn't lock the door, you should be able to come in, right? I know where you are hiding... Come, this is me The evidence I want you to see proves that I am not the scumbag you said."

As he said that, A Nuo looked around nervously again, and finally put the thing he found - the photo album, on the dining table, and opened it.

A Nuo said slowly at this time: "I have an older brother, his name is Haili, and he has been a naughty person from now on..."

He pointed at a photo in the album: "This is him, and the person next to him is me."

This is an old photo.The photo should have been taken in an elementary school, where a pair of twin boys are looking at the camera at the same time, smiling.

Arnold flipped through the photo album page by page, slowly talking about his past, "...this was taken when I was in high school, after a football match. Hailey wanted to be a football player since he was a child. It's just that He was such a troublemaker that he got into a fight and hurt his knee once. He had a chance to join a good local football club but was dropped because of the injury... This is our graduation picture from high school Miss...are you there?"

There was still no response in the dark.

Arnold said to himself: "Hayley and I are like the front and back of a coin. He is what people call a jerk, trash. And I... and I have always been recognized by people. I rely on my own efforts, I got a scholarship, walked out of this place all the way, and got a lot of funding at the university... This was taken during the opening ceremony of my university. It was taken by my father...Miss, are you here?"

There was still no response in the dark.

A Nuo sighed, smiled wryly, shook his head, and closed the album directly.

He rubbed his forehead and supported his forehead like this, but a strange sound appeared at this moment.

A Nuo suddenly opened his eyes, and in the flickering candlelight, the woman who attacked him in the public toilet suddenly appeared on the opposite side of the table.

She opened the photo album, flipped through the pages quickly, and remained silent.

"Miss...you are really here." A Nuo called softly.

The woman frowned at this time, looked up at A Nuo, and suddenly asked, "Are you really not at home last night?"

"I was reviewing at school last night. I can find someone who will be my witness. I did come back in the morning!" A Nuo said quickly.

The woman frowned again: "You have a twin brother, why didn't Livia mention it to me? Didn't you tell her? As her boyfriend, you kept it from her?"

A Nuo hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Miss! First, I don't know the Livia you mentioned, and second, she is even less likely to be my girlfriend!"

"You!" The woman stood up excitedly, but she seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said, "White Hell."

"What?" A Nuo was stunned, and looked at the woman suspiciously: "What hell? Miss, I know you should feel bad now, but... at least it's not hell, right?"

But the woman sat down and stared at A Nuo without blinking: "Do you seldom go home?"

Arnold said: "It's also the last two months. Recently, I have been busy with study, school experiments, and internships, and I seldom come back most of the time."

The woman continued: "This man...I'm talking about your brother, does he have the key to your house?"

A Nuo shook his head: "I'm not sure. One time he came to my house, and after a few days, I found that the spare key at home seemed to be missing."

The woman asked again: "Then why don't you change the door lock?"

A Nuo smiled wryly and said: "There is no valuables at home. Take it again. If you say that the key is missing and the door lock needs to be replaced, my landlady will definitely get mad. Besides, it may be because I don't know where to put it for a while." I couldn’t find it. Then I forgot about it.”

He frowned and looked at the woman, "You said, Livia is my girlfriend...but I don't know her at all. Wait, when did Livia say she had a boyfriend? They How did you meet?"

"White Hell." The woman said dejectedly, "She said she met you in this nightclub."

A Nuo hurriedly said: "Miss! My financial situation does not allow me to go to that kind of place to spend!"

"Don't talk, let me think about it." The woman shook her head, then wiped her face.

She began to recall some things about herself and her boyfriend that Livia had said to herself.

She said that they met in a nightclub, and that night she drank too much and was pestered by several hooligans.It's okay to be entangled in the first place, Livia is not a good girlfriend anyway, at worst, it's like being paid for nothing, or being bitten by a dog.

But unexpectedly, a man came forward and rescued him.

She said that this man is very handsome, and he is also a student of a prestigious university. With his own efforts, he won a scholarship.

She said that the other party is usually very busy studying, and she doesn't want others to know about her affairs, so she only meets when the other party is not busy studying.Usually wait for the other party to take the initiative to contact her.

She said that she has no future with him, but she enjoys this sudden love...

If... If Arnold is really not the Arnold that Livia said, that is to say——Arnold's twin brother pretended to be him and hooked up Livia with this identity.

Indeed...Compared to the kind of punks who don't know what will happen tomorrow, a famous college student and the status of a future social elite can really attract some ignorant women to fall into their arms.

Livia is such an ignorant woman with a habit of daydreaming.

"Why did you come back to this place?" She stared at A Nuo again, trying to read something from his expression.

A Nuo smiled wryly: "I said I would give you evidence... Besides, I felt that you would not give up so easily, so after I came out of the toilet, I thought that you might follow me, so I came back here— —Here is where we lived before my parents passed away."

"I'll take this book away." The woman stood up suddenly, "But I won't trust you so easily... If, if I find out that you lied to me, I will definitely not let you go! Even a ghost will not let you go!"

She walked straight towards the door.

But before taking two steps, she fell to the ground.

A Nuo quickly got up and walked over, helped her to sit up, "How are you?"

The woman just covered her ankle with her palm, showing a painful expression.A Nuo frowned: "Did you sprain it in the toilet? You...you still walked so far?"

The woman didn't speak, but tilted her head stubbornly.

A Nuo said: "Wait a minute, I'll get you some sprain medicine, my brother... Haili was often injured in the past, and there are quite a few at home, but I don't know if it's expired."

As he said that, Arnold stood up quickly and walked to a place where the candlelight could not reach, as if he was searching for something.

Arno came back shortly after, a spray in his hand.He took off the woman's shoes, then looked at the other person's reaction, and began to spray something: "It may be painful, but just bear with it."

There was a power outage, and the room was very stuffy, and Arnold's face was covered with sweat.He adjusted his glasses, and then continued to concentrate on treating the woman's ankle injury.

At this time, the woman saw a row of very eye-catching bite marks on A Nuo's palm, and there was even blood...

She subconsciously said, "I'm sorry..."

"It's nothing... If you were wronged, I would do the same if you were wrong." A Nuo responded casually.

The woman said: "I said the injury on your hand."

A Nuo raised his hand subconsciously, then smiled and said: "It's nothing, I'm a man, this little injury is nothing to worry about. It's your luck to walk so far after a sprain. How is it? Are you feeling better?" ?”

The flickering candlelight made Arnold's face extremely soft.

It seemed that a certain string in her heart was plucked at this moment.

"My...my name is Caroline."

……

……

Ding dong... ding dong——!
The doorbell rang for a long time, and the door of this exquisite seaside apartment was just opened. Luo Qiu came out, and found that it was Song Haoran standing in front of the door.

"Mr. Song?" Luo Qiu showed a surprised expression: "I'm sorry, the power went out. I was busy looking for lighting, so I made you wait a little longer."

The reality is... the owner has just returned from the club after an interesting deal.

"It's okay." Song Haoran smiled slightly, "Today's weather is indeed a bit weird, and my road is also a little blocked."

Luo Qiu nodded, and after a moment of silence in front of the door, he said: "Is there any result?"

Song Haoran nodded, showing a sincere smile, and said softly, "Let's go in and talk about it? My relatives..."
