    Chapter 509 A Tacit Understanding


    Qiao Lin turned to look at her and pressed the elevator button. The two of them entered the elevator


    one after the other. Qiao Lin couldn’t help but sneer, “I told you to be careful with your words and


    actions, and I didn’t ask you to be bullied. As the future heir of the Barnwell group, you don’t have to be


    so careful.” Qin Xiaoxiaoughed silently.


    In fact, she had heard what they said in the hospital that day. She already had a lot of evidence in her


    hands.


    But she couldn’t say it, and she didn’t dare to say it. Once the truth was exposed, the rest of her life


    would be ruined! “I don’t want to intern at the Barnwell group now. Can I leave?” She raised her head


    and looked at Qiao Lin with a glimmer of hope. At least, the person in front of her had helped her


    several times. He should still be a good person. As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Lin’s eyes,


    under the metal frame, turned especially sharp.


    “What do you think?”


    He had already shown mercy several times. If she still couldn’t understand, there was no need for him


    to keep her alive.


    He turned around. Before the elevator doors opened, he pressed Qin Xiaoxiao on her shoulder. “Before


    Mr. Barnwell went abroad, you sent him a message, right?” “I didn’t!” Qin Xiaoxiao immediately


    retorted. “I gave you your phone. Your every move is under my watch.” Qiao Lin narrowed his eyes.


    Qin Xiaoxiao only felt that the blood all over her body was going to freeze. “You’re so naive.” Qiao Lin


    turned his head. “Are Hank and Lyra still alive?” Qin Xiaoxiao asked timidly from behind. “Maybe.”


    After receiving Hank’s call in Luo City, Officer Priestley immediately sent someone to pick them up. As


    soon as they met, he began to interrogate them in a business-like manner. “What was the situation


    when the ne crashed? How many people were there in total?


    What was the survival rate? Also, how did you survive the past four days?” “She needs to rest,” Hank


    said.


    He ignored Officer Priestley and the other police officers and led Lyra around. Nore also had the same


    attitude.


    “What’s going on? They’re messing around, but you have to…” Officer Priestley frowned.

    “Me too. I have nothing to say.” When they left the hotel, Hank specifically told him that for the sake of


    Lyra’s safety, he could not expose everything he saw in that ce.


    Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.


    However, an hour after they returned to Luo City, there was news that exposed the self-developed


    organization, Flying Shadow. “It was reported by informed sources that it was a military organization


    located in a national border zone. It is very aggressive and dangerous.” “At present, the police have not


    yet intervened to deal with it. It is unknown whether it is rted to political affairs.”


    Nore and Hank looked at each other. Coldness shed in the eyes of both men at the same time. Lyra,


    on the other hand, was calmer than the two of them. Since the ne crash until now, what she had


    experienced had long surpassed her past life experiences. In a situation where one could not predict


    the future, only the animal sense of self-preservation could soothe the uneasy emotions. “The police in


    Luo City are going to conduct a routine investigation on you.” Even Officer Priestley could not stop this.


    A few hourster. Lyra and Hank sat in the same interrogation room. She was already used to this kind


    of ‘routine’. “No matter what they ask, you can’t…” “I don’t know anything in the first ce.” Lyra raised


    her eyes and looked at the camera above their heads. “People shouldn’t lie. It is more suitable for me


    to tell the truth than to lie.”


    She meant something else. In the next second, she said indifferently, “I did not expect that my ex-


    husband’s background was soplicated and that he could be involved with this kind of


    organization.”


    Hank paused for a moment and opened his mouth to say something. Lyra tilted her head to the side


    and said indifferently, “You only told me not to ask or interfere. But you never considered that maybe I


    can help. In your heart, I can only live under your protection.” “Everything I do is unreasonable.” Her


    voice was soft, and she seemed particrly lonely in this enclosed room. “How do you know that I


    didn’t abort the child?” Lyra lowered her head. “You won’t.” He sighed softly. He did not expect that they


    would confess to each other in this situation. “You are a responsible person. You will handle everything


    well. Unlike me, I only know how to force others.” When Lyra heard this, she blinked. Was he just


    echoing her words, or was he really reflecting? “Everything I did was for you to be safe.” Lyra did not


    say a word. She admitted this point. If he had not appeared beside her that day, she would have been


    left there like those passengers. However, she did not need to be questioned here. After all that had


    happened, she still could not avoid him. The door was pushed open, and Officer Priestley followed Luo


    City’s police officer in. “Let’s begin.” They were all asking about some basic information, and there was


    nothing that could not be said. In the end, as soon as Lyra opened her mouth, Hank would take the


    initiative to change the topic.


    It would even give people a misconception that he did not want to cooperate with the police to


    investigate.


    Lyra frowned and nced at him.


    “Tell the truth!”


    “It’s the truth.” He remained expressionless and spread out his hands, not revealing anything. In fact,


    he gave Lyra a signal. He was going to screw this up even worse.


    Then, Lyra began to cooperate with him. The two of them acted dumb together. What he said was the


    truth, but there was just nothing useful. Anyone who heard it would think that they were just innocent


    ordinary citizens. “I have never seen them before.” Lyra looked at the photo that the police officer took


    out and shook her head. In the end, there was nothing Officer Priestley could do. He directly used the


    lie detector.


    But it was still useless.


    Hank and Lyra had a tacit understanding. After hearing the interpreter’s voice, the police officer from


    Luo City mmed his headset in anger, cursed harshly, and mmed the door to leave. Seeing this,


    Officer Priestley scratched his hair. Looking at the two people in front of him, he asked seriously, “Are


    they all true?” “Of course.” A faint smile appeared on Hank’s face. “Alright, then do you still want to


    remarry her?” Officer Priestley stared at his face, trying to see if the lie detector was broken. “Yes, at all


    times.” Lyra listened to his extremely serious tone from the side and bit her lips.


    The lie detector suddenly rang. An ear-piercing sound surrounded the entire room. “I just felt that


    something was wrong. The machine must be broken!” Officer Priestley immediately said. The police


    officer beside him tugged at him, “No, Captain Priestley. It’s because the machine is overloaded and


    the red light is not on.”


    “What lousy machine!” In the end, the police officer in Luo City had no choice but to hand the three of


    them over to Officer Priestley, and they had to leave Luo City within 24 hours. Moreover, they were not


    allowed to enter the country within five years. When Hank received this order, he cooperated with them


    seriously, “Officer Priestley, don’t worry. We will nevere to such a dangerous ce again.” “How


    unlucky!” Lyra mumbled angrily.
