Chapter 10 chapter Ten

I knew that in two or three hours I'd be hotter than the stove lid.All the cops in Los Angeles will come looking for me and maybe issue a general arrest warrant for me. I changed my voice as much as possible and called my own detective agency to find Mr. Lai. The switchboard lady said: I will connect you to his secretary. Not long after, Bu Aiqian came to answer the phone. Hi Elsie.I speak in my own voice. Tang Nuo!She was surprised: Baisha tied herself up.Mi Shanlou is in her office.I think there's a whole bunch of confusion here. There will be more to come.I told her: Elsie, listen, do you remember the two motel voyeur cases in the newspaper clippings?

Remember, I keep it in the scrapbook, just for Never mind, I said: get it, I want this woman's name. Well, she said: I can tell you right away. Don't let anyone know what you're doing.I said: If Baisha or Shanlou come to the office, you hang up the phone.Pretend to cut and paste. Okay, wait a minute, Tang Nuo, don't hang up. I held the phone for about fifteen seconds, and Ai Qian came back and said: Tang Nuo, I found it.The woman was Diane, twenty-six years old, and lived in Room 367 of Santa Ana's Spirit Heart Apartment.She spent the night at the Day Swim Motel. enough.I see.

Tang Nuo, please take care. It's too late to take care.I said: The water has been overwhelmed, and there is no good way but to start swimming. I hung up the phone, rented a car, drove to Santa Ana, and looked for Soul Heart Apartments. That's right, Room 367 is where Diane lives. I rang the doorbell, and the bell rang inside the door. After a while, the door opened.A nice voice said: Who?Then suddenly gasped and stopped there. The young woman who stopped at the door and stared at me in astonishment was Ling Peizhu. Tang Nuo!She said: You are really capable, how could you find me here.

What's the matter?I asked: Shouldn't you be here? In fact, this is not my official She stopped, bewildered. I know.I said: This is a hiding place. Tang Nuo, what are you doing? For now, I just want to come in and talk to you. She hesitated, and opened the door.Well, she said: come in. The apartment is extremely high class.The living room is very comfortably furnished.A short swinging door leads to the kitchen.The other door was supposed to lead to the bedroom.There is a private balcony and floor-to-ceiling windows opening to the living room. I said: I have been thinking about the price you offered for that piece of land.

She pointed to a sofa, turned her back on me for a moment, then turned back.I could see she bit her lip for a while.His eyes were full of panic. Tang Nuo, how is it possible? I want you to follow me, but I swear you can't.I am very careful. Why?I asked. I'm fine, what do you want? I just want to tell you that I accept the price you offered me.The land is leased to you. I am sorry.Tang Nuo.I'm really sorry. What's the matter? The statute of limitations has passed.All void, my principles Are you in real estate? No, not exactly. May I ask, what exactly do you do for work?

Tang Nuo, please don't tease me, just tell me what you want? I put a look of surprise on my face.You ask what I want from you?Why?Of course I'm here to negotiate the rent. She couldn't be sure.Concentrate on looking at my face and scrutinizing my intentions.Then she said: Don Nuo, I am very sorry about this incident.I'm actually very sorry about the whole thing.I have one person directing the work.He told me an unreasonable price for a corner lot.But I now know that the whole thing was a misunderstanding, a mistake.I hope you will forgive me if I give you any wrong concept.Tang Nuo, I am willing to do anything to make up for your loss.I am sorry.Alright.

She talks so fast, I know she's lying about something else.Hope I don't notice something else. It's okay, Peizhu, I said: Why do you use a fake name for me? That's because oh, Tang Nuo, you came here suddenly and confused me.I'm fine, Tang Nuo, let me tell you the truth.I was sent to see you for that field.I don't want to tell you my real name myself.Peizhu is my real name.The man who asked me to represent him to negotiate the rent is quitting now. Don't you want it at any price? I'm sorry, Donno.I can't take it at any price.She said: Tang Nuo, be a good boy and forget about this whole thing, okay?

She approached me, stood in front of me and looked down at me, and said, "Tang Nuo, please do me a favor and forget everything, come on, Tang Nuo, you can't stay here."I am going out. I look at her house dressing gown and raise my eyebrows. I also need to change clothes.I have made an appointment with the beauty salon.I need to change clothes. I said, "Peizhu, why don't you want this piece of land now?" She said: Tang Nuo, you should understand what I said.The man I represented quit.He won't ask for any price.He found what he wanted elsewhere. You represent a man?

Of course, how can I have so much money myself. I stretched out my hand and looked around the apartment and said: You are doing well. She wants to say something.I got it under control. Tang Nuo, please.She came over, gave me her hand, pulled me up from the sofa, looked into my eyes, and suddenly leaned into my arms, she said: Tang Nuo, you are a good person, you can understand, right? I think so.I said I Tang Nuo, you are so kind, you are a good person.In the future, I will let you know how much, how grateful I am for your understanding.But now you must leave. She leads me to the door.She opened the door for me.Maybe we can meet more often in the future.Tang Nuo.Maybe there will be some business, my representative is reliable and will not scalp at all.

Or for that corner land? anywhere.As she said that, she pulled me with a very light hand and pushed me to the outside aisle.Close the door quickly.I heard the click of the latch on the inside of the door. I stood at the door and listened.Faintly, I can hear the sound of moving quickly inside.Then I heard the sound of dialing the phone. I stayed outside the door, listening, hoping to hear her speak, or call someone by name. Apparently, the number she requested wasn't answered, so she hung up and called again after a while. Still no reply.I walked down the aisle, into the elevator, climbed into the rental car and drove back to town.
