Chapter 287 Solution (XII)
After Lu Xiaoxiao returned to the hotel, she took her clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower. She felt unwell all over after coming out of prison just now. If she hadn't gone to look for the recipe, she would have gone back to the hotel to take a shower long ago.
After taking a shower, Lu Xiaoxiao looked at the time and saw that it was already past noon, so she picked up the phone on the table and called the catering department to order food.
After the food was delivered, Lu Xiaoxiao sat on the sofa and started eating. Halfway through her meal, she heard someone knocking on the door. She put down her chopsticks, stood up to open the door, and saw Zhang Xu standing at the door.
"Why did you come back so soon?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked as she walked into the house.
"I just need to hand the things over. You don't have to worry about what happens next." Zhang Xu spoke after sitting on the sofa.
"You haven't had lunch yet!"
"No."
"What do you want to eat? I'll call and order one for you."
"Just like you."
Zhang Xu's meal was delivered after Lu Xiaoxiao finished her lunch. She looked at Zhang Xu who was drinking soup and asked, "What sentence will Dao Ye be sentenced to?"
"death penalty."
"So heavy?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Zhang Xu in surprise.
"It wasn't so severe before. Now in China, anyone who has anything to do with treason will be sentenced to death."
"What about Stephen? Is he sent back to his country?"
"Stephen has seen the formula, so it is impossible to send him back to his country. He can only be disposed of secretly."
"Then we can't just ignore the lives he has taken and his mother."
"The organization has sent someone to anonymously report Stephen, and then sent all the evidence they collected to the law enforcement officers in his country."
"Hopefully they'll give those girls a proper burial once they find their bodies."
"Yes."
After lunch, Zhang Xu went out again. Lu Xiaoxiao was sitting on the sofa with nothing to do, so she took out the photos Stephen gave her. She looked at the photos again and threw them all into the trash can.
Although Lu Xiaoxiao liked these photos very much, seeing them would remind her of Stephen, and then she would think of the things Stephen had done, so no matter how much she liked these photos, she would not keep them.
Looking at the photos in the trash can, Lu Xiaoxiao suddenly thought of a sentence she had heard before: No matter how cruel a person is, there is always a softness in his heart, but that softness is buried by his sins.
Lu Xiaoxiao thought that the only soft spot in Stephen's heart should be his filial piety towards his mother, although this filial piety had become distorted.
At around nine o'clock in the evening, when Lu Xiaoxiao was about to go back to her room to sleep, she heard the door being opened. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was Zhang Xu who pushed the door open.
"Have you had dinner?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Zhang Xu.
"have eaten."
"Are you going out again later?"
"No need, the mission has been completed. I will take you to have a good look around Haishi tomorrow."
Lu Xiaoxiao thought that she had secretly gone out to visit Haishi, but she didn't dare to tell anyone about it, so she said to Zhang Xu: "Okay."
"It's getting late now, you should go back to your room and go to sleep."
"Good night."
"Good night."
Lu Xiaoxiao returned to the room and entered the space. She took out all the things she had bought at the First Department Store and looked at them. Then she thought about what she would buy tomorrow and went out of the space to sleep.
