lifetime contract

Chapter 7

The man in the hospital was receiving treatment quietly under the watchful eye of the majestic ace lawyer. Looking at his left arm wrapped like a pig's trotter, he really couldn't laugh or cry. It was just a small injury. How could the nurse wrap it up like this? serious?As if his hand was broken?

But looking at Xu Nuo standing aside with a worried face, the man felt very happy for some reason!

Xu Nuo was indeed worried. It was one thing for him to hate this giant dog, but another for him to save himself regardless of his own life.He knew that if it wasn't for the man who saved him, he might already be playing chess with God now.Looking at the thick gauze, he didn't know what the feeling in his heart was, was it worry?Still grateful?

"Thank you."

"No, it's just a reflex." He did not think so much at that moment, and made a series of actions based on instinct, not to mention that there was no time for him to think so much at that time.

"Why did you know there was a bomb installed in the car?" Seeing that the nurse had finally finished bandaging and left, Xu Nuo asked the question he had been wanting to ask all along.

"Aren't you suspecting me of tampering with your car?"

"No, if you did it, I should be the one who is bandaged now. Besides, even if a bomb is to be installed, it should be installed on your car instead of you on mine." Said honestly resentment in my heart.

The man smiled wryly, promising that this man really held a grudge and remembered it very much. He had obviously sacrificed himself to save him just now, but he still held a grudge for what happened that night.

"I heard a strange sound, and I know that the power supply in the car is connected to other devices."

"sound?"

"Ordinary people may not notice it, but I have been in the US military for several years, and I have been dealing with bombs for a while, so I am more sensitive to that kind of sound."

"U.S. military?" Xu Nuo couldn't help thinking about the man up and down.

It was the first time for Xu Nuo to face a man squarely under such bright lights. The man was really tall, half a head taller than himself, and unlike his thin, obviously muscular figure.Today, he didn't wear that quack-style clothes, but a brand-name casual clothes, just like his house, very tasteful.Xu Nuo began to doubt the origin of this man. Judging from his clothes, behavior, figure, background, net worth, etc., it seemed intriguing.

Seeing Xu Nuo frowning slightly looking at himself up and down, the man suddenly understood, and said, "Oh, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Ruan, and my name is Chongtian. I'm a detective, and this is my business card " Ruan Chongtian took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over.

Promising to accept the business card, he was a little surprised, because the detective agency Ruan Chongtian worked for was well-known in the industry. In addition to being fast in handling things, the accuracy was also quite high. Of course, the fee was naturally high;

"At the bar that day, my colleagues and I were investigating other targets. I'm not a mobster."

Xu Nuo's face changed slightly when he mentioned the incident at the bar that day.

Realizing that he touched Ni Lin, Ruan Chongtian immediately changed the topic: "Did you blame anyone? How could someone plant a bomb in your car?"

"This has nothing to do with you." His job is to offend people, and he has tried to be intimidated before.Xu Nuo also thought to himself that the recent cases involved a wide range, and it seemed that he had to go back and analyze carefully where the problem was.

"Since criminals can set hands and feet on your car, your home may not be safe. Have you noticed that your mobile phone reception at home is not good?"

"What's the meaning?"

"I'm just thinking about the behavior patterns of ordinary prisoners. He needs to know your daily routine to have a chance to install a bomb in your car. Then the chances of your home being bugged are quite high. This time it's like this Earth-shattering, the other party will also be anxious, there may be a next step soon, as the saying goes, weeds must be eradicated, only the dead will not speak."

Xu Nuo couldn't help shivering, he knew that Ruan Chongtian was right.He is just a lawyer, even if he has learned some defense, he is still no match for a professional killer. What's more, he doesn't even know who the enemy is now, and it is impossible to defend against him.If bugs are also installed in the home, wouldn't it be possible for every move to be monitored; this feeling is very creepy.

"Do you need me to help you?"

"If necessary, I will entrust your company."

Ruan Chongtian liked this cold beauty more and more. He was obviously terrified by what he said, but on the surface he was still cold and handsome, calm as if nothing had happened.If Ruan Chongtian hadn't learned to observe prisoners in the FBI, he wouldn't have noticed Xu Nuo's almost nonexistent nervous movements and flashes of panic.

"We are neighbors, we should help each other, and we won't charge you any money." Ruan Chongtian laughed boldly.

"Based on your current condition?" He inspected the man who looked like he was seriously ill.

"It's not a bodyguard, and the sooner you check, the sooner you will feel at ease."

Xu Nuo looked suspiciously at the cynical man in front of him, is this man trustworthy?He is not a person who will completely believe in people just from a business card.But in the scene of narrow escape just now, death was very close at hand. If this man hadn't used his body to protect himself, he might be decapitated now.Although it can't be called trust, but I don't know if it's because of the relationship he fought so hard to protect just now. Although Xu Nuo doesn't like the man in front of him, his disgust has really diminished a lot.

Knowing that Xu Nuo doesn't fully trust him, Ruan Chongtian doesn't seem to care at all.If the trump card lawyer trusted a stranger so easily, he wouldn't be a trump card.

"What's more, we have an unusual relationship." Ruan Chongtian teased unconsciously, but got a murderous look in return.

"Good friend! We are good friends...hehe...my friend is in trouble, how can I not help...hehe..." Ruan Chongtian immediately changed his words and smiled embarrassingly.

Xu Nuo shot Ruan Chongtian fiercely, as if saying, "Who is your good friend!"

"Neighbor, neighbor, it's over."

Xu Nuo didn't answer whether he agreed or not, but just paid the medical expenses for Ruan Chongtian and completed the formalities for him to be discharged from the hospital.Walking out of the hospital gate, Xu Nuo frowned slightly, seeing Ruan Chongtian standing next to him as a matter of course, obviously fell in love with him.Xu Nuo sighed, the way home was the same anyway, Ruan Chongtian was injured because of himself, even if he didn't want to, he couldn't leave his "benefactor" who lost one hand and go home by himself.
