Chapter 171 Something happened to Laila

Hearing what Huo Sen said, Carrie and Phillip nodded, each answered the phone and walked towards the corner.

Huo Sen also flew directly to the second floor, sat on the guardrail and answered the phone.

Only Renee glanced at a few people curiously, then consciously turned down the volume of the TV, and then continued watching TV with Gugu in her arms.

After answering the call, Hossen said to the other end of the phone: "Hi, Merry Christmas Eve, George."

"Hello, Hossen."

George's voice on the other end of the phone was a little heavy, which made Huo Sen confirm his previous guess.

"From the sound of your voice, it doesn't sound like you're here to say Merry Christmas to me."

Huo Sen also calmed down his attitude and his tone became serious.

"I'm sorry to bother you, and I don't want to work overtime on Christmas Eve. But I have some bad news to tell you."

"What happened, just tell me. If I guess correctly, your colleagues have already called my housekeeper and tutor."

Huo Sen's confession stunned George, who was still thinking about how to speak on the other end of the phone, for a moment before he spoke.

"Since you have been informed, I will keep the story short. Leila Cordier is your servant, right?"

"Yes, what happened to her?"

Hearing George mention Laila, Huo Sen's expression became serious.

Something must have happened to Laila, but I don’t know if it was her personal matter or whether it was because of Huo Sen’s involvement.

"She is now being treated in the hospital. She was attacked on 13th Avenue in Queens (fictional). The assailant ran away and there were no witnesses. When my colleague arrived, he only saw her lying in a pool of blood with the phone in her hand. Preliminary It is suspected that she called the police herself, and she fell into coma after calling the police.”

"Crack!"

George, who was standing on the street talking on the phone, heard an unusual noise from the other end of the phone and couldn't help but paused.

"Are you OK?"

"It's okay, you continue."

Huo Sen looked at the cracked mobile phone in his hand with an expressionless face, trying his best to suppress his anger and not to crush the mobile phone before the call was finished.

"Oh, it's okay. Then I'll continue."

Although George didn't believe it, he couldn't say anything more and could only continue.

"After putting Leila Cordier in the ambulance, my colleagues investigated the scene and found her discarded wallet and documents in a trash can [-] meters away."

"The money in the wallet was gone. It was initially suspected to be a robbery and wounding incident. However, because Cody Leila's family could not be contacted, my colleague decided to contact the only three contacts on her mobile phone as a last resort."

"And these three people are: young master, housekeeper, and teacher."

"Considering that she might be a servant of a big shot, my colleague didn't dare to call the young master's phone number and chose to call the housekeeper and the teacher. But I recognized that the young master's phone number was your number, so I Called you."

George finished speaking in one breath, and then Huo Sen asked.

"Queens doesn't belong to your jurisdiction, right? Why do you..."

"I made a meritorious service in the last case, and since my wife was about to give birth, I took the initiative to apply to be transferred to Queens to be closer to home so that I can take care of my wife more easily."

George's confession dispelled Hossen's doubts.

He thought that in order to get promoted, George teamed up with SHIELD to test him.

Others can't do this, but Director Lu Dan can't.

Anyway, even if Laila dies, she is not one of his tribe.

Huo Sen asked coldly: "Which hospital is he in now?"

On the other end of the phone: "Queens General Hospital."

Huo Sen asked again: "Can he be transferred to another hospital? I will be responsible for the cost."

George on the other end quickly tried to dissuade her: "It's best not to. She's still being rescued. If she's transferred to another hospital rashly... don't worry. Although Queens is poor, the general hospital is a public institution with complete equipment. It's no worse than a private hospital."

"Okay, I'll go over now. Thank you, I owe you a favor. Hang up first."

Without waiting for George to reply, Huo Sen hung up the phone directly, and then dispersed the "Mage's Hand" in his hand that was used to keep the phone intact. The phone instantly shattered into pieces and fell from the guardrail onto the carpet in the hall. .

At this time, Jiali finished answering the phone and stood under the guardrail, looking at the fallen remains of the mobile phone without paying attention.

As for the butler Phillip, after answering the phone, he went directly to the room to get clothes.

"Are you going or me?"

It was Carrie who spoke, but at this moment, there was suppressed anger in her words.

"I'll go. After all, I've been targeted, and it makes sense to make a scene. But you are different. I don't want you to be targeted before you are exposed. Besides, maybe this is to distract the tiger from the mountain. You Stay home and sit back and adapt to circumstances."

Hotham stops Carrie.

He knew that Carrie was not angry because Lila was hurt, but because a good Christmas Eve was interrupted.

Although she had mentored the two maids at home, in Carrie's eyes, Laila and Lilia were not "her own people" yet.

No big deal, just replace him.

She had little contact with the two of them, and she had been dealing with upper-class people recently, and she gradually developed an attitude of looking down on all living beings.

There is no equal status, and she doesn't even look at each other.

Phillip, it was because of Huo Sen's acceptance that Carrie chose to accept him.

But acceptance is acceptance, but in Carrie's eyes, Philip is at best a subordinate, not a family member.

It was precisely because Huo Sen saw this that he did not let Carrie come forward to handle the matter.

More importantly, Huo Sen saw that there was something wrong with Jiali's practice.

There is something wrong with her mentality, and she might become possessed.

But Huo Sen had no choice. She had to rely on herself to refine her heart, and no one else could help her.

Huo Sen himself has not reached the point of tempering his heart, so how can he help others?

He now only wants revenge, but he cannot take this step. He is not even qualified to refine his heart.

"Philip, prepare a car and go to the general hospital with me."

Phillip, who had already put on his coat, took the car keys and Hossen's coat and walked out.

"Master, your coat is ready. You can get in the car and put it on. I'll drive."

Huo Sen nodded, flew down from the railing, and sat next to Renee.

"Nini, stay at home with Teacher Jiali. Or go to bed early. My brother is going out and may not be back at night."

Renee hugged Huo Sen's hand a little unhappy, and said reluctantly: "No, no, brother agreed to sleep with Nini tonight and wait for Santa Claus together."

Huo Sen held Renee's head with his other hand and said a little displeasedly: "Nini, be good, your sister Laila is sick and in the hospital, brother go see her. Nini is a good child, she must be obedient. Only good children Only then can you get a gift from Santa Claus. Santa Claus doesn’t like bad boys.”

"Okay then. Brother, you have to come back early, and Nini will leave the door open for you."

"Ah."

Seeing that Renee stopped making trouble, Huo Sen looked at Carrie and told her, "I'm not sure if what happened tonight is about me. So you should be careful at home.

Especially that 'neighbor', if there is any abnormality... then destroy it! "

At this moment, Huo Sen was full of murderous intent.

Carrie said she understood and sent Huo Sen to the door.

But the two of them didn't notice that Renee, who was sitting on the sofa playing with her cat, raised her head with a gloomy face, her purple eyes filled with evil spirits.

In Renee's room upstairs, a sickle under the bed was beating constantly, and the "holiday" little handkerchief on the table opened the window by himself, then got out, flew into the night sky, and disappeared. .
