Chapter 491

"Ah..."

A girl's scream came from the dressing room. A young man said sorry and closed the dressing room door again.

"This is the last shop."

Several young people gathered together. They not only searched all the shops, but even checked fire escapes, toilets, and all kinds of corners where people might enter!

There is no place in the entire mall that they haven't discovered yet!

After searching all the places, Lisa was still not found, which means Lisa is no longer in the mall.

After Pang Da knew this news, he thanked everyone while driving the maid back home.

If Lisa is no longer in the mall, could she have already gone home?

The house was empty. Except for another living maid, Lisa didn't come back.

Pang Da became even more impatient and anxious because Lisa was still carrying a big belly. The maid reminded him, "Could Madam have gone to the hospital?"

Pang Da ran through all the nearby hospitals again, but still didn't find Lisa.

Lisa seemed to have evaporated from the world, disappearing completely!

She has no relatives here, no family. Pang Da doesn't know where else she can go!

The increasingly dim sky, those dark alleys on the streets, the small river by the roadside, the distant sea, every place seemed to have opened its giant mouth greedily like a demon that could swallow human life.

Pang Da could no longer continue to imagine. He could only pray to God to bless his wife to be safe, while driving around on the street.

He only has one question now: where is Lisa?

"I thought you were dead."

Mr. Hoff sat on the sofa looking at the lady sitting opposite, "I arranged for people to find you. They said you were missing, said you had an accident, and finally those people died themselves."

"I always thought you were dead, Lisa."

Mr. Hoff held a wine glass, shaking it in his hand. He seemed to be reminiscing about the past between them.

"You are one of my favorite girls. We spent many interesting nights together, and do you think I am a bad person?"

Mr. Hoff picked up the wine glass and took a sip, "They always make those girls covered in bruises, or make them missing and disappear."

"But look, have I ever done that?"

"Your dishonesty and avoidance make me very sad, Lisa."

Lisa has always remained silent.

In the afternoon, when the maid went to the restroom to wash fruits, a strange man suddenly sat opposite her.

"Sorry, sir, someone is already here. She will be back soon.", Lisa reminded the other party with a smile that he shouldn't sit here.

But the gentleman opposite didn't seem to have any intention of leaving, at least not immediately.

He took off his sunglasses and looked at Lisa sitting opposite him, "Lisa?"

Lisa's expression suddenly became alert. She stared at the man's face for a long while, and couldn't find such a person in her mind at all!

She shook her head and said, "I don't know you."

When the man smiled, he was actually quite gentle, looking harmless, "We have actually met, but you shouldn't pay attention to me because every time you and that person were playing games in the room, I was working outside."

Lisa became a bit restless. She held her belly and stood up, "I don't know what you are talking about, sir. I'm not feeling well and am going to leave."

The man didn't stop her, just smiled and said, "You wouldn't want your husband to know that you used to be a high-end call girl, would you?"

"A senior agent of the Hazardous Materials Administration has a high-end call girl wife. Do you think he will become the laughing stock of the law enforcement bureau?"

The man took out a piece of deer skin and wiped the sunglasses in his hand. Lisa, who had already stood up and even had one foot crossed out, sat back down again.

"What do you want to do?", she asked, biting her lip.

She once thought it would be easy to deal with a young man with no experience. She didn't think that sometimes sincerity is more capable of making people retreat step by step than lies!

She lost to Pang Da, who was full of sincere feelings for her. When Pang Da put fifty thousand dollars in front of her, she fell.

So she doesn't want this man, the man she loves, to have any accidents, nor does she want him to become someone else's laughing stock.

She thought everything would get better, but she didn't expect this day to come so quickly.

She had considered before whether Pang Da's promotion would be too fast and attract the attention of the Bay Area, making herself discovered by them.

She was even secretly happy that Pang Da couldn't get promoted, at least she kept a distance from the Bay Area.

But now it seems that hiding is meaningless.

"Mr. Hoff wants to see you.", the man issued an invitation.

Hearing this name again, Lisa's body clearly had a slight tremor.

She is very familiar with this man, bright on the surface, but hiding stench and disgust in his bones!

She had no choice before. In Red High Heels, she had to obey or die. She didn't want to die, so she could only obey.

But now, she is no longer the past her. She doesn't want to continue the life she had before.

"Can I... not go?"

The man shrugged indifferently, "This is your right, but soon everyone will know that Lisa is married and has a husband from the Hazardous Materials Administration."

"Fuck!", Lisa cursed. She didn't hesitate anymore, "Let's go, let's go see Mr. Hoff."

She still had her spicy side in her bones. Once she made a decision, she wouldn't repent again.

She came to the parking lot with the man, got into his car, and returned to the familiar Bay Area, returning to the familiar villa.

There is no big change here compared to before. She is so familiar with it that she can find the door even if she closes her eyes.

Someone wanted to search her body, but was refused by her. The man was also exempted from the search process and claimed this was her "privilege."

More than ten minutes later, here, she met the old guest, Mr. Hoff.

Mr. Hoff kept staring at her. Maybe it was because he had to say something, or maybe it was because she felt some discomfort with the current situation, she opened her mouth and said, "The past life is over, Mr. Hoff."

"I am already married now and no longer engage in this work. Please don't make things difficult for me!"

Mr. Hoff sat on the sofa. He looked serious and gentlemanly on the surface, but the strong desire hidden in the bottom of his eyes made people feel uneasy like a flame.

He licked his lips, "You owe me one."

Lisa was stunned for a moment and didn't react, "When did I owe you one?"

Mr. Hoff stood up, put his wine glass back on the coffee table, and leaned forward, full of aggression and invasion, "The last time, you were already on the way, but you went missing halfway, and I had already paid for you."

"You owe me one, Lisa."

"After doing this one, I will never contact you again, nor will I disturb your life."

The last time...

Lisa thought of that time. She was caught and her head was pressed to be sent to Mr. Hoff's villa, but Lans saved her and hid her.

In a sense, what Mr. Hoff said cannot be considered completely wrong.

He paid the money and called for service, but the person didn't come.

Lisa responded, "But they called other girls for you."

The smile on Mr. Hoff's face decreased a lot, "But what I want is you!"

"Lisa, is it so hard to promise me?"

Lisa stroked her protruding belly and insisted again, "I am already pregnant."

Mr. Hoff looked at her, and the smile on his face gradually converged, "My patience is limited. You know, destroying you, your husband, and your child is not a complicated thing for me!"

"Before my patience ends, you'd better make a decision."

"Although I may not be qualified to say this, I hope you think about it seriously and then cherish your current life..."

He looked at Lisa with a condescending gaze, as if looking at a toy in his hand.

He will not respect the toy and the toy's opinion. These words are actually all a way of playing.

When you get a toy in your hand, you might arrange some identities for this toy and arrange some plots.

Just like now, these plots and developments will make him excited. He feels that he is like a steel pipe now, terribly strong!

Lisa looked at him, and after a while of silence, she said, "If you have to send me to the basement today, it must not be the living me, only my corpse."

When she said these words, her voice was not loud, but it gave people a very firm feeling!

Mr. Hoff was finally angered, just like last time!

Last time, because their lack of trustworthiness gave him a feeling of being played, and this time, Lisa's attitude made him feel that he was looked down upon!

He stood up, walked to Lisa's side, raised his hand, and gave her a slap, hitting Lisa onto the sofa, "We have plenty of time to fix your little bad temper, Lisa!"

"I will make you beg me to enter your body, I guarantee!"

The sky is getting darker and darker, and it has gradually turned completely black. Lans was invited by Senator Williams to come to his manor for dinner.

Senator Williams is full of interest in everything that happened in New Jincheng. Of course, as a mature and smart politician, he knows what he can ask and what he shouldn't ask.

When he heard that Lans also knew two senators and some political dignitaries, the envy on his face was undisguisedly revealed!

Senators have too much influence on Federal politics!

Many people think that the President is the highest ruler of the Federation, but in fact, the highest ruler has never been any one person, but a group of people.

When they gather together, it is called "Congress."

Congress can almost do everything the President can do, and even things the President cannot do, Congress can also do.

The entire Federation has so many senators, and they all have their own circles. Any one person has the potential to change the political landscape of the Federation.

After all, for this peculiar country of the Federation, public relations, lobbying, and interest transmission are allowed to exist legally in the political arena in various forms.

The more senators you know, the greater your potential influence in politics.

Senator Williams also only knows four or five senators. He didn't expect Lans to almost catch up with him.

The only difference is that he can still contact these senators, while Lans just met them.

Listening to Lans talking about what he did in New Jincheng, listening to some inside information about the Board of Directors and equity changes of the Liji Group that cannot be understood from the outside, Senator Williams and his two sons all revealed expressions of amazement!

Yes, Arthur was also at the dining table today. His mother used her flexible tongue to persuade Senator Williams to let Arthur have a chance to grow at the right time.

Arthur will not compete with James for anything, but he cannot have nothing either.

Senator Williams, who loved his wife extremely, was persuaded by that flexible tongue, so today Arthur was rarely able to sit at the dining table.

"Amazing operation, but it fits their performance."

"Forty million in fines, changes in equity, all participants in every link have filled their stomachs!"

"Sometimes I think your luck is really good. This is not the first time the Liji Group has done these things, but no one has ever tried to fight back, and no one has been able to maximize the benefits of fighting back!"

"You did it. You let them take a fall they had never taken before, falling black and blue."

"Among the things you harvested, the least valuable is the four million you wanted most at the beginning."

The least valuable is already worth four million, so how much are those valuable ones worth?

No one knows, but at least it will be worth more than four million. Maybe when it can be used, it will be worth tens of millions, or even tens of millions, hundreds of millions!

Lans also felt that the whole thing was very dramatic, "At the beginning, I actually just wanted to get justice back, to get back what they owed me with interest."

"But you know, when we push a stone ball down the mountain, at first it might be us pushing the ball, but soon it will become the ball dragging us!"

Senator Williams could hardly disagree with his point of view. The two chatted for a while, and naturally talked about the issue of garrison.

"This time I heard a very special piece of news over there. They said the Navy is going to establish a military base here in Jincheng."

When Lans revealed this news, Senator Williams looked at him with very surprised eyes.

Not surprised at the news he said, but surprised that Lans could hear news of this level.

Even within the Social Party, at the high level, not necessarily many people know this news.

Senator Williams can know this news because the Social Party nominated him as the next mayoral candidate for Jincheng, and will push him to power with all its might.

In other words, he will have a direct connection with the military's garrison plan, so he will certainly know about this.

But others, like Lans, he cannot touch this level of things, but he can also hear about it. It can only be said that he has indeed contacted some amazing people in New Jincheng.

"Yes, external changes have started to put pressure on us internally. This is not necessarily a bad thing, for you, for me, for everyone."

Garrison has the benefits of garrison, and not garrison has the benefits of not garrison. Now the external situation is becoming more and more chaotic, and garrison is more beneficial than harmful.

The two chatted for a while, and the butler knocked on the door, interrupting their conversation, saying there was a call for Lans.

When he came back after answering the phone, Senator Williams felt some curiosity, "Is there an emergency?"

Lans nodded, "A friend's wife is missing. She hasn't been found yet. They plan to expand the scope of the search."

"You know, people I send into other districts must communicate with them first to avoid misunderstandings."

Generally speaking, Senator Williams wouldn't take the disappearance of such a small character to heart. He just asked casually, "Did you call the police?"

"Do you want me to say hello to Hunter?"

It sounds a bit funny, this statement, but in fact, Williams's suggestion is indeed a good suggestion.

People are not necessarily willing to contact gangs, and most people are still unwilling to contact gangs, so even if there are some witnesses, when they are asked by gangs, they will selectively forget.

Lans hesitated for a moment and agreed to his suggestion, "Then I'll trouble you. I'll have someone send the characteristics over."

Senator Williams had some interest in this missing person case. He asked some details in detail. For Senator Williams, who is highly tied to Lans's interests, some secrets are no longer secrets.

He briefly stated Lisa's situation, including Pang Da's situation. After listening to Lans say a general idea, Senator Williams suddenly asked, "Is there a possibility that she is in the Bay Area?"

"Her husband is an agent of the Hazardous Materials Administration, and he was once your subordinate. With these two amulets protecting her in Jincheng, no one dares to hurt her casually!"

"Except for the Bay Area!"

"If you can't find her elsewhere, you might as well try to find her in the Bay Area based on some previous clues. Maybe there will be extra gains."

"But one point, her previous work might be exposed. I don't know if her husband will choose to forgive and continue to accept her, or..."

Senator Williams chuckled, "When people get old, they will inexplicably become interested in these small family ethics matters. If there are any follow-up developments, I hope you won't be stingy to share with me..."

After Lans went back, he took out the notebook they found when decorating Red High Heels. In the notebook, he found multiple work logs related to Lisa. Except for a few clients who only called once, the one who looked for her the most was that Mr. Hoff.

He got Mr. Hoff's phone number through some relationships, and the phone was quickly answered, but it wasn't Mr. Hoff who borrowed it, but his butler.

"I want to talk to Mr. Hoff.", Lans stated his intention directly.

His butler gave a refusal answer, "Mr. Hoff is working now. He doesn't have time to answer your call. You can leave your name, contact information, and the purpose of the call. After he finishes his work, I will convey it to him."

In the dark, Lans just had a feeling that Lisa was there!
