The man’s face was very gloomy. No way. Hazel wanted to cry but had no tears. The police couldn’t have come here because they thought that Baron had been harassed, right?
In an instant, Hazel drooped her head and looked bitter. If she touched Baron’s body, at least she should have remembered it. She really suffered huge losses.
This stingy and mean man in front of her was really a fussy person.
She covered her body with the quilt in a fit of pique, pretending to be a quail.
“Alright. Take a rest. When the police come here, don’t hide anything from them.”
It was because there were some details that might be the key clues.
For example, why would the popular fresh meat she and Elva had met in the bar appear on the back street of the bar?
The timing was too coincidental.
“But…”
Hazel hesitated. She still remembered Bruce’s words. He told her not to call the police.
Maybe calling the police would be a threat to his safety, but she could not overlook Elva.
“Regardless of their identities.”
Baron knew about Hazel’s concerns. As a celebrity, being involved in this matter would definitely cause a huge uproar.
However, the matter was so serious that there was no value in hiding it at all.
Half an hour later, two young men appeared on time in the ward.
One of them was carrying a computer and looked gentle and thin. It was hard to imagine that he was a policeman.
“Ms. Horatio, hello. We can start now.”
The man adjusted his glasses, turned on the laptop in his hands, asked a few questions, and typed on the laptop. He immediately found the picture and asked Hazel to identify it.
“This?”
Hazel looked at Baron, a little hesitant.
Here, apart from Baron, she could not trust others, because he saved her.
Although he always showed a look of disdain.
“They are members of the task force.”
Baron briefly explained. There was a gun battle in City J downtown, and it was impossible to leave no clues. The reason why he did not reveal the news to the media was that he did not want to cause panic among the people.
The task force suspected that this matter was related to a group of cross-country smuggling guns and drugs.
The main members of the group were active in the regional area. Their motives for coming here were not simple.
“I do not know either.”
Hazel was very distressed. That day, when she and Elva were kidnapped, she saw the faces of several strong men. However, they were fierce and ordinary. Their faces weren’t distinctive.
Those men were all small fries. The police should go for the big shots. The people in the pictures were all leaders.
“There was a woman wearing a mask.”
Hazel couldn’t understand what those people saying, so she could only guess.
“Look at the picture. This woman is called Plum Blossom. She is a member of the organization and is in charge of drug dealing.”
The organization was named after poker cards, and Plum Blossom was the leader of one of the branches.
Many countries were hunting down Plum Blossom, including the international criminal police.
She was cunning and adept at scheming. The policeman suspected that the distant masked woman was Plum Blossom.
“She was wearing a tight leather suit, probably over 1. 65 meters tall.”
The woman was wearing high heels, so it was impossible to measure her height. Hazel made a rough estimate based on the length of the woman’s legs.
“And … she has a good figure.”
Hazel took a sip of water and frowned. Although it was a bit embarrassing to say, she still told the policeman about the infrared camera installed in the bathroom to facilitate surveillance and peep.
The policeman put down his laptop and smiled awkwardly.
“Ms. Horatio, you may not know that Plum Blossom is a lesbian.”
In other words, Plum Blossom liked women.
“What?”
Hazel choked on water and her face flushed red. Her nervous mood immediately disappeared. She thought that this man from the special task force was also a gossip.
“It’s just a joke. Let’s continue. Don’t be nervous and try to think of the details.”
The man touched his nose and continued to ask.
Perhaps it was because the atmosphere was relaxed. Anyway, Hazel was not so tense anymore. She recalled her painful experience and spoke like an outsider.
After a long time, Baron stared at Hazel and commented, “You are very tough.”
When Baron saved Hazel, she was in such a sorry state, but she had a strong desire to live.
“When can you set out to save them?”
Elva and Bruce were still in their hands. Especially Bruce. He had been shot and his life was at risk. It had been a couple of days. Hazel did not know how he was doing now.
Hazel was so heartbroken that she was almost numb.
She clearly knew that they had guns. Even if the police were to save Elva and Bruce, they had to arrange and deploy. If it weren’t for Baron, perhaps the members of the special task force wouldn’t have come so quickly.
“You should worry about yourself.”
Baron furrowed his brows and nodded at the two members of the task force, signaling them to leave.
“I can take them to the scene if you need me.”
Hazel coughed. She was weak, but she still insisted on going out.
Anyway, she was safe, and Elva and Bruce were still in danger.
“Can you think about yourself?”
Baron couldn’t endure it anymore. Hazel was so foolish. She had a high fever and her wounds were inflamed. She almost died yet she was still thinking about others.
Even if the special task force went there now, the place would be empty.
They let her go because they wanted to challenge the ability of the special task force in public. No matter what tricks Plum Blossom and others wanted to play, he, Baron, would play along!
“Mr. Andrew, you have an important meeting at seven in the morning.”
With two dark circles under his eyes, Dave knocked on the door and entered the ward.
So many women pestering him for an entire night. Finally, it was dawn, and they were feeling sleepy. He was liberated.
Those women from the hospital were fiercer than tigers!
“Shut up.”
Baron put on his suit and looked at the dirty marks in front of the white shirt, his face gloomier.
He actually ignored this. And he met with those two from the special task force with disheveled clothes. It was no wonder that the two people looked at him ambiguously.
Hazel didn’t appreciate it and still wanted to continue courting death. Then, why did he save her life at all?
“But they can’t wait.”
Hazel buried her hands in her hair and looked helpless.
The two commissioners of the task force had said that this organization had been developing a virus and was testing it with the human body.
And she, unfortunately, was shot a pink potion.
There was no way to know what it was.
There was no sign at the moment, but the doctor suggested that Hazel should do a comprehensive physical examination.
She might have to go abroad if domestic hospitals couldn’t find out what it was.
This result devastated Hazel.
This was a private hospital, and the cost of hospitalization was high. In the face of money, people often had to surrender.
Moreover, she had arranged a full load of work for these days.
If she could not appear on set in time, it would leave a bad impression on her agent.
Hazel mainly relied on acting insignificant roles to earn a living. With her temper and character, if not for her good-looking face, she would not have been able to survive in showbiz.
She wanted to be discharged. She should be fine after returning home to sleep for the night.
“Don’t worry. Leave everything to me.”
Baron had a headache. He had gotten himself into trouble by meeting Hazel, the silly, so he had to clean up her mess. But he was definitely not a soft-hearted man, and the main reason for his action was because of one thing.
The other party was actually playing tricks near his private manor, which was a public provocation!
It could be said that there was a grudge between the two sides.
The father of Plum Blossom was once a business partner of Baron’s father.
Many years ago, because of a project, the two people had a disagreement and went their separate ways.
The Floyds withdrew their capital, and their business flourished, while Plum Blossom’s father went bankrupt because of his failed investment.
Plum Blossom’s father came to ask for help, but at that time, the Floyds did not have much liquidity, so her father jumped off the building to commit suicide.
Later, Baron’s father wanted to give Plum Blossom and her mother a sum of money to live, but they had disappeared.
Before leaving, Plum Blossom left a note. Sooner or later, she would take revenge on the Floyd family.
