Ai Xing just lay down on the concrete floor of the interrogation room all night.

His school uniform had been trampled dirty, a swollen bruise protruded from the left forehead, and the pain in his shoulder was unbearable.In addition, the light on the ceiling was so strong and dazzling that it flickered non-stop every half hour. Ai Xing stayed up all night in this harsh environment and could hardly sleep.

Early the next morning, Wilson and Jonny entered the interrogation room together with another detective with an Asian face.

Ai Xing had already sat up from the ground at this moment, leaning his back against a wall, with one arm resting on his bent knee.Although the whole person looked embarrassed, there was no compromise or softness on his face.

Johnny dragged him into the interrogation chair by the scruff of the collar, and handcuffed him again.

Ai Xing hasn't had a drop of water since yesterday afternoon, so he has more reasons to keep silent.

Wilson walked up to him at one point and asked him gently, "Would you like some water?"

Aixing noticed that there was a small shiny blue dot on the small nail of Wilson's left hand, which looked like a fragment of nail polish.

While lowering his eyes to avoid staring at each other, he thought to himself, how could a blunt detective get nail polish on it?

He accidentally caught a glimpse of the wedding ring on the other party's left ring finger, and guessed that Wilson should have a marriage history.The marriage time is not short, otherwise there will be no such clear ring seal. Not long ago, he divorced his wife or his wife passed away, leaving him a daughter.The little girl is not very old, and she likes small games like applying nail polish to her father.

After thinking for a few seconds, Ai Xing was convinced that Wilson was someone who could be wooed.A single father obviously has more concerns. He should not lose his daughter's future for the ambition of a certain politician.

Wilson didn't understand Ai Xing's psychological changes. He was surprised that this seemingly pampered high school student could persist for a whole day in such a harsh environment. He persuaded him in a deep voice, "We have special engineers to track your Computer, once they find it, it will be too late for you to confess."

Ai Xingwei raised his head, and said the first sentence since the interrogation this morning in a half-hoaring voice, "If one more person knows, there will be an additional risk of leakage. You are not so stupid."

Wilson seemed to be stunned for a moment, and the Asian agent behind followed him, and said to Ai Xing seemingly casually, "Do you think your spouse will know where the files are stored?"

Ai Xing was unprepared for this, and suddenly clenched his fists when he heard the word spouse.

The Asian agent continued, "I saw your bank statements for the last few months. You like him very much, don't you? Marry him as soon as you are born, and give him a sports car and a Telefunken microphone. Either one is worth tens of thousands of dollars."

There was silence in the air. Ai Xing's hands were handcuffed on the interrogation chair and he couldn't move. The other party approached him a little recklessly, stretched out his hand to pull down the zipper on the collar of the school uniform, and saw the ring hanging on Ai Xing's neck.

The detective read Ning He's name in clear Chinese first, and then asked Ai Xing, "He should know?"

Ai Xing's face changed slightly, and he said slowly in a very cold voice, "He doesn't know, don't touch him."

Ai Xing's biological mother is a visionary woman.

Years of married life made her clearly realize that her husband, Ai Chengjin, is a person who is strong on the outside but capable on the inside and puts his interests first.After she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, on the one hand, she contacted a lawyer to change her will, on the other hand, she arranged a series of incredible courses for Ai Xing, and asked Ai Xing to use a pseudonym to refer to the training.

This includes psychological construction in special environments, the use of various guns, survival in the wild and self-defense in combat, and even stopping cars and unlocking handcuffs in critical situations.

Ai Xing only used the winter and summer vacations to participate in special training projects. Although the skills he learned were not advanced, at least he had mastered sufficient drill methods.

The Asian agent suddenly threw Ning He at him during the interrogation, and Ai Xing had a premonition that he had come prepared.The other party was thin and thin, unlike Jonny or Wilson, who had thick calluses on his fingers and muzzle with a gun. He was obviously not an agent who often went out to work, but a special talent recruited by the FBI.

When he got Ai Xing's answer to Ning He, his expression became very satisfied, he got up and left the interrogation room for a while, and came back with an iron pan in his hand.

Ai Xing heard the sound of the glass needle rolling in the tray, and his heart sank.

These people are going to use Veritaserum on themselves, he thought.Everything about Ninghe is probably the best breakthrough they think.

Jonny and Wilson sat motionless behind the interrogation table, and Ai Xing instinctively wanted to struggle.However, the chair is completely fixed to the ground, and even a skinny Asian detective can easily inject a tube of amital sodium into his body without any helpers.

The effect of the medicine came quickly, and a cold hallucination gradually enveloped him.He heard some distant but clear voices, but could not distinguish the figures and faces in sight.

The moment the needle tip pierced his skin, Ai Xing remembered a series of psychological courses he had taken, the main purpose of which was to teach him how to maintain control over his subconscious mind when his main consciousness faltered.

Because of his mother's precautions during her lifetime, these agents did not know that he had obtained rare high marks in various special training courses after an overnight investigation of his background information.So they thought that Veritaserum was effective enough, and they didn't innovate anything on the question of interrogation.

It starts with some basic information about Ai Xing, such as what your name is, where you go to school, who is in your family.

Ai Xing answered one by one. Although he could not speak clearly, all the answers he gave were correct.The Asian detectives observed his performance and nodded frequently, as if they thought that these questions were on the right track, and Ai Xing was giving the truthful response they expected, as long as it continued, the whereabouts of the documents would surface.

The ensuing questions made Ai Xing feel nervous, he knew exactly what he was going through, his nerves were gradually paralyzed, his consciousness was between sober and trance, but his guard was stronger than ever.The past psychology courses gave him a model for coping. He kept implying that he should tell the truth on ordinary issues and half-truth on sensitive issues.

However, human beings are not machines after all, and the effect of medicine has far more far-reaching effects than Ai Xing thought.

When the detective's question turned to his love life, the two familiar syllables of Ning He reappeared like high-frequency words.Ai Xing suddenly cried involuntarily, he couldn't control his muscles, and physiological tears kept falling from the end of his eyes.He leaned back in the chair, tears streaming down his lips.

He used to think that the relationship between himself and Ning He was crazy sweet, but now it seems that there is nothing but bitterness left.

The Asian detective asked him with a malicious expression, "When did you propose to Ning He?"

Ai Xing suddenly trembled like a helpless child, he clenched his lips and refused to answer.However, the other party refused to let go, stood up and walked to him, and asked again, "When did you propose marriage?"

Ai Xing was in a trance, and the effect of the medicine forced out the most fragile attachment in his heart.He looked at the face that oozes malice but has a vague outline, and finally, with a kind of involuntary breakdown, he said, "April 4, my birthday..."

Lawyer Robyn's private home is located in the Manhattan Bay area south of Los Angeles.

The urban traffic in the early morning of the weekend was relatively smooth, and Ninghe was driving very fast on the expressway passing through the city.The other party only gave him an hour for an interview, and he was afraid that he would be late.

Luo Pinen was a private lawyer hired by Ai Xing's mother before her death.The old lady is over [-] this year and has reached the age of retirement. The firm she founded has also been handed over to her daughter and son-in-law who are also lawyers.

Ning He arrived at the entrance of the villa 15 minutes earlier, but did not dare to ring the bell rashly, and stood outside the door waiting for the appointed time.Luo Pinen saw his lingering figure from the backyard, and took the initiative to come over and open the door.

Ning He explained his purpose, and Luo Pinen looked at him cautiously, and repeated, "Are you William's brother?"

Ning He paused slightly, feeling that he had nothing to hide under the old lady's insightful eyes.He secretly touched the ring on his finger and asked politely, "If you don't mind, can we talk in the house?"

Robin let him into the living room and ordered a young Filipino maid to prepare tea for him.

Ning He noticed that she had looked at his ring, so he confessed, "The situation between me and Ai Xing is more complicated. We registered our marriage in April this year."

Although Robin was prepared, he was still taken aback by this truth.

She had met Ai Xing a few times before, and spoke highly of him. She also recalled all kinds of things about Ai Xing in the few chats just now. In her impression, he was only eighteen or nineteen years old. Why was she so anxious to get married?

But when Luo Pinen sat across from Ninghe and looked at his appearance and temperament carefully, he seemed to understand something again.

She is a clear-headed and open-minded woman, and she can see Ning He's nervousness.

So she said very gently, "Bless you. Aixing is brilliant, and so are you."

Ning He nodded, and wanted to ask her about Ai Xing, but he didn't know where to start.

Luo Pinen was straightforward and asked him, "Ai Xing didn't come, but you came, did something happen to him?"

Ning He was very grateful for her calmness and directness, so he told her the whole story, including Ai Chengjin's position and the missing document.

Robinson sighed and shook his head several times, feeling surprised and shocked at the same time.

After Ning He finished speaking, she was silent and said slowly, "You have to know, this is not a trivial matter."

Ning He nodded and said, "As long as I can save Ai Xing, I don't care about any other costs."

Robinson was silent for a longer period of time.Her first question was, "None of your respective parents knew about your marriage?"

Ning He nodded to her.

She asked a second question, "Did you say no cost at all, including your reputation and feelings?"

Ning He responded almost without thinking, "Lawyer Luo, I feel at ease when you ask me that, which means you can think of a way to save him."

Then he looked at her sincerely, and continued, "Don't think about me, I'm willing to try any possibility you propose."

This was the first time Luo Pinen saw Ning He, and his first impression was that he was handsome and elegant, with silver hair and very special, like a rebellious young master in the upper class.

So Luo Pinen also thinks that Ai Xing will fall in love with him, and it is not uncommon for him to marry him in a hurry.Ning He is not as calm and ordinary as his name, he is a beautiful and charming young man, with a kind of attraction to both the opposite sex and the same sex.

But when he heard the calm and transparent expression when he said "regardless of everything", Robin felt that his first impression of him was one-sided.

Ning He was concerned about Ai Xing, seeing Luo Pinen staring at him and not speaking, thinking that the other party did not trust his statement enough, he asked, "What do you think I can do? Should I find a lawyer for Ai Xing?" team, or hire a private eye?"

Luo Pinen thought for a while, and his expression became serious, "I have dealt with the will of Ai Xing's mother before she died. She made a lot of adjustments to the will before she died of illness, and even Ai Chengjin didn't know about the changes."

As he said that, seeing the Filipino maid who was about to enter the house to deliver tea, he waved her back and said, "There are a lot of people in Ai Shi who are coveting Ai Xing's shares. Now that he is facing such a situation, these people will definitely take In the name of the interests of the group, I can't wait to start with his shareholding. Ning He, I need you to do two things. First, find a way to find out the password of the document that Ai Xing hid. The FBI will probably get it eventually. The path of the file, but it may not be cracked. If the password is mastered by us, we will have the upper hand in the negotiation, and Ai Xing will not be in danger."

When Luo Pinen said this, she paused, her gentle gaze became sharp, and the ability and vigor hidden under the retired life returned to her.

She said to Ning He, "As for the other matter, I will accompany you to do it together."
