Chapter 58
On the 13th, a serious shooting occurred in Inter Milan, Hroda.
Twenty-seven people were killed and many others were injured.
According to news reports from Country M, three of the 27 people who died were Chinese. One of them was visiting her daughter, but she did not expect to be attacked here.
For a time, major media outlets rushed to report the incident, and the local government expressed regret and condolences to the families of the victims.
The hospital at this time.
Anna stood in the hospital's back garden, smoking a cigarette. "What a sad thing," she said. She paused, made the sign of the cross on her chest, and said reverently, "I mean, your friend's father suffered such a tragedy. May God bless her and help her get out of this shadow as soon as possible."
Qiao Ye, who was standing next to her, also had a cigarette in his mouth, but he didn't light it. He was just playing with the lighter in his hand.
"I see."
"So what are you going to do?" Anna asked. "It seems like your friend is experiencing this for the first time."
Anna is the most famous doctor in the Eiffel Private Hospital and, of course, she is also the largest shareholder of the hospital.
"If she chooses to follow me, doesn't that mean she'll have to go through this for a long time to come?" Qiao chuckled, his tone flat and nonchalant: "Besides, don't you think this is fun?"
"Snap", the sound of the lighter is crisp and loud.
Anna didn't respond, but turned her gaze behind her, "Dear Joe, I think Mr. Police may have something to say to you."
Hearing her words, Qiao turned around and looked behind him. There was indeed a man in police uniform.
She gestured to Anna, indicating that she should step aside for a moment.
Anna shrugged, dusted herself off, and walked towards the hospital, but she didn't leave. Instead, she sat down on a chair at the hospital entrance.
It was not her duty day today, so she did not return to her department.
Seeing the police station, Joe lit the cigarette in his mouth and then casually put the lighter into his pocket.
"I wonder what business Mr. George has with you today?"
Smoke rings disappeared into the air.
"Just a routine inquiry." The man named George unbuttoned the top button of his coat. He looked very hot.
"Oh. Then please ask." Qiao Ye was not afraid of him and just said casually.
"I wonder if you know that your friend Miss Pei's father has come to Country M."
"I heard a little. But you know, I'm very busy every day and I don't know much about some of her family members."
George nodded. "What about her?"
It goes without saying who the "she" here refers to.
"Officer," Joe said helplessly, "Everyone has their own private space. I was her roommate before, but we eventually separated, didn't we?"
The man didn't respond, but turned around and asked another question, "Then I wonder if Miss Qiao knows that this organization is going to launch these things today?"
His tone was calm, as if he was just chatting with her casually.
But when he heard this, Qiao Ye's hand paused, "How can I foresee the future? After all, I'm not God."
"So, do you know or not?" George kept staring at her, as if he wanted to get to the bottom of it. He wanted to get a definite answer from her.
Qiao Ye's thumb unconsciously rubbed the cigarette in his hand and said calmly: "I don't know."
George looked at her and put away the notebook in his hand. "Okay. Thank you for your cooperation, Miss Qiao."
Joe also smiled. "You're welcome. Cooperating with the police is everyone's duty."
Watching George leave, the smile on Joe's face gradually disappeared, and Anna also walked over from a distance, "It seems that this police station is not very good at questioning?"
"It's not a good thing to want to know too much."
At this time, Anna brought up another matter, "I heard that your father is coming to Country M?"
Few people knew about this, and it could even be said that at this point in time, almost no one knew about it.
Obviously, Anna was not among them.
"You seem to be more informed than I am." Joe also glanced at her.
I don't know if this sentence is sarcastic or something else.
"Hey, you can't say that. I just heard it by chance." Anna showed an innocent expression. "But then again, what is he doing in Country M at this time?"
Joe didn't say anything either.
Of course she knew why Qiao Yang came to Country M.
Because her hands were too long, she only needed to move again to undermine his power in the Qiao family back home.
Of course he started to get anxious. After all, he was the one who founded Qiao Group, and all his efforts were put into it.
After a long pause, she said slowly, "I don't know. Maybe something is going to be destroyed."
Seeing that she had no desire to talk about this matter, Anna did not insist, "It's really hard to talk to you."
Joe immediately replied: "Then don't talk to me."
Anna is gone.
She was the only one left on the lawn.
Qiao Yang landed in Country M last night and is now resting at the Audley Hotel.
Perhaps what happened yesterday made him realize something, and he hasn't contacted her yet.
She didn't know how much time had passed before the vibrating phone in her pocket brought her back to her senses.
She took out her phone and looked at it.
It’s news from Xia Yi.
Since coming to Country M, Xia Yi has fully utilized her advantages and, with her support, has been thriving in the State of Mishiroda.
After reading the message, she called Xia Yi.
"Any news?" she asked.
"There's news. Your half-sister is in Mishiroda State."
This information surprised Qiao. "Right under my nose?"
Xia Yi hesitated for a moment, "Yes and no."
"Don't tell me such uncertain things."
"She's not downtown."
In just one sentence, he gave her a lot.
If it's not in the city center, it's in the suburbs.
But no trace was found where she lived, which was on the other side of the city.
"What's the address?" she asked.
"Mr. Qiao, the address has a separate price." Xia Yi's tone was flattering, and what he wanted was obvious in his words.
"Ten thousand dollars. Is that enough?"
"enough."
After getting the specific address, Qiao Ye didn't go there directly. Instead, he said to him, "Watch it. I don't have time to deal with them recently. Don't cause any trouble for me. By the way, send me a copy of what you found."
"good."
Soon, she received a fax.
After turning off her phone, she put her hands in her pockets and staggered away.
We took the elevator to the top floor of the hospital.
This is the VIP ward, and it costs five thousand dollars a night.
She bought some fruit outside and came here.
Unlike the hustle and bustle downstairs, it is particularly quiet here.
She pushed open the door of one of the wards and walked in.
Although it is called a ward, it is no different from a luxurious hotel room, and even has a separate bathroom and kitchen.
Then sit down on the sofa.
Hearing the sound, the person on the bed slowly raised her head. Her long hair covered her face, making it impossible to recognize her for a moment. She said in a hoarse voice, "Why are you here?"
Joe also sat on the sofa, peeling an apple while saying, "I'm afraid you're too sad and can't think straight for a while, so I came to see you and make sure you're still alive."
The person on the bed was Pei Qing.
She was in very bad condition and looked extremely depressed.
What happened in the past few days seemed to have happened in another time and space, and all the memories rushed into her mind.
It was as if she had become a different person overnight.
If before, her perception of Qiao Ye was just a very ambitious rich second generation, then now, she realized that Qiao Ye was much more than just a rich second generation.
It was obvious that she was the one who planned everything, but it seemed that nothing had anything to do with her.
She had known about the unrest for a long time, but she kept it to herself. Only after it happened did she feign grief, saying, "I'm so sorry to hear about this. I hope you can accept my condolences."
Obviously, Pei Cheng was lured over by drugs, but it had nothing to do with her.
After all, Pei Cheng heard that thing when he was drinking in a bar.
When he went there, he just discovered those people's illegal transactions and was killed by them.
It seems that there is an invisible big hand driving the development of all things.
She even held her hand and taught her step by step what to do every step.
Pei Qing's body trembled, and he lowered his head, not daring to look at her. "Are you really not afraid of what you've done?"
Hearing this, Qiao seemed to have heard something she didn't quite understand. She looked at her in confusion, "What are you talking about? What do you mean I did it? I'm a first-class citizen. I know nothing. I only found out about these things from the TV reports."
She carelessly cut the apple in her hand into pieces, put them in the box, and considerately put toothpicks in them so that she could eat them easily.
“…”
Pei Qing's chin was suddenly pinched, and he was forced to raise his head, and in an instant he bumped into Qiao Ye's smiling black eyes.
This smile carried an emotion that she couldn't understand, and she couldn't even understand what she meant.
A rough thumb brushed past the corner of her eye.
The wet feeling made her realize that tears had already flowed from the corners of her eyes without her knowing when.
The woman's whispering voice reached her ears. "Why are you crying? There's nothing to cry about. Don't you know better than me what he did? Why are you crying over a scumbag?"
Pei Qing sobbed and looked at her helplessly.
Joe looked into her eyes, which were wet and looked like Bambi.
It was very interesting. She chuckled, stroked her hair, leaned down, and whispered in her ear: "Don't be afraid. Since you chose to make a deal with Xiaochen, you should be prepared to face the situation today, right?"
Pei Qing's body trembled even more violently.
"Besides, these things have nothing to do with you. What do you know? You were just working when it happened. Your colleagues testified for you, and there are surveillance cameras to prove your case..."
She hadn't finished her words yet.
Her lips were kissed, those cold lips, still trembling with their owner's, pressed against her mouth and stopped her from saying anything else.
Qiao was stunned for a moment, then reached out and pressed her body into his arms, taking the initiative and licking her.
Pei Qing had already forgotten to push her away.
In this situation, if there is someone by your side, it will undoubtedly give you a sense of security.
She admitted that her heart was moved at that moment.
