Chapter 479: Number 1357, Come Out!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“You really don’t need me to accompany you?” Lin Shanchu asked again.

Huo Xunzhou had a serious look on his face as he answered patiently, “No need.”

“Alright then.” Lin Shanchu pursed her lips.

Huo Xunzhou seemed to have figured everything out and could now face Huo Zhuxiu.

“Is there still no news about Number 1357?” Huo Xunzhou suddenly asked her.

“No.” Lin Shanchu had also tried to find Number 1357.

She had phoned Number 1357, but still could not get through.

She had also tried the dessert shops that Number 1357 liked to visit before, but she drew a blank.

Now, it seemed that she could only wait for Number 1357 to appear automatically.

On the day of Huo Zhuxiu’s trial, Lin Shanchu attended an event.

When the event ended, a group of reporters suddenly appeared and surrounded Lin Shanchu.

“Huo Zhuxiu’s trial is held today. Aren’t you going to observe the trial with Huo

Xunzhou?”

“There are rumors online that Huo Zhuxiu and Huo Chaosheng are father and son. Is this true?”

“Is Huo Chaosheng’s trial going to start soon?”

“As Huo Chaosheng’s friend, did he ever tell you about Sang Min’s murder?” “You know nothing about Huo Chaosheng’s murder of Sang Min?”

The reporters were like wolves that had smelled blood, forming a crowd around Lin Shanchu.

Fortunately, Qi Cheng was present today. He stood in front of Lin Shanchu and tried his best to separate the reporters from her.

It had not been peaceful recently, and the experienced Qi Cheng was worried that Lin Shanchu would encounter such a situation, so he followed her to attend events.

To his surprise, he really encountered such an unexpected situation.

“Brother Qi, we can’t leave like this. Why don’t we…”

Huo Zhuxiu’s trial was about to end, and Lin Shanchu was in a hurry to pick up Huo Xunzhou, so she decided to just answer the reporters’ questions directly.

Qi Cheng hurriedly interrupted her. “No, we can’t express our opinions on this matter. It involves a major issue, and things are more complicated.” As soon as Qi Cheng finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly fell silent.

Lin Shanchu abruptly raised her head and realized that the reporters around her had all disappeared.

Qi Cheng, who was standing in front of Lin Shanchu just now, was now walking beside her and discussing her schedule for the next day with He Xiang.

After Qi Cheng and He Xiang had walked for a distance, they realized that Lin Shanchu was not following them, so they stopped and looked back at her.

“Sister Lin, why aren’t you leaving?” He Xiang asked her with a puzzled look.

Qi Cheng saw her abnormal expression and called out to her worriedly,

“Shanshan?”

Lin Shanchu stepped forward quickly and said with a frown, “Those reporters just now disappeared.”

He Xiang looked confused as she replied, “There aren’t any reporters.”

Lin Shanchu turned around and looked at Qi Cheng.

“What reporters are you talking about?” Qi Cheng’s reaction was the same as He Xiang’s.

It was clearly a real scene that had just happened, but why did Qi Cheng and He Xiang have no impression of it at all?

Lin Shanchu remembered Huo Xunzhou had said that he suddenly knew how to fly a helicopter.

“I was just trying to scare you guys.” Lin Shanchu looked natural as she dropped the topic. “Wait for me outside. I need to go to the washroom.”

“I’ll go with you,” He Xiang quickly said.

“No need.”

He Xiang did not insist on accompanying Lin Shanchu after her firm refusal.

Lin Shanchu turned around and slowly took a few steps, occasionally turning back to look at He Xiang and Qi Cheng.

After confirming that He Xiang and Qi Cheng had disappeared, she stopped and did not continue walking inside.

“Number 1357, come out!”

It is absolutely impossible for humans to make the scene change suddenly.

In this way, everyone was eliminated.

In addition, this action could be considered as getting her out of a fix while eliminating that useless system, Number 2580.

What happened just now was definitely Number 1357’s doing.

Lin Shanchu looked around, but still could find Number 1357.

“If you come out and admit your mistake now, I can consider forgiving you. If you don’t come out now, don’t ever come out again!”

As soon as she finished speaking, light footsteps could be heard not far away.

Lin Shanchu turned around and saw Number 1357 carefully walking towards her.

She took a deep breath, raised her chin slightly, and stared expressionlessly at Number 1357.

Number 1357 did not dare to look at her at all. He just glanced at her and lowered his head timidly.

“You said you’d forgive me,” he muttered.

“I only said that I would consider forgiving you, but I didn’t say that I would really forgive you.” Lin Shanchu sneered at him.

Number 1357 was taken aback. “Then… can you reconsider it?”

“Sure.”

Lin Shanchu chuckled, looking very friendly.

“Really?” Number 1357 asked tentatively as his face lit up with joy.

“Really…” Lin Shanchu paused for a moment before she raised the bag in her hand and hit Number 1357 hard. “As if I will do it!” “How dare you control me?!

“How dare you force me to follow the plot!

“I have to kill you today!

“You still dare to dodge me!

“Try dodging again!”

Number 1357 was already trying his best to dodge her.

But in the end, he was still beaten black and blue by Lin Shanchu.

After Lin Shanchu vented her anger, she returned to her gentle and kind appearance.

“Let’s go.”

“Where are we going?”

Number 1357 did not dare to speak loudly. His voice was so soft that it was like he was whispering.

“Go home.” Lin Shanchu glared at him coldly and asked, “Where else do you think you’re going?”

“Oh.” Number 1357 was a little flattered as he replied, “Okay, okay, okay. Let’s go home.”

Qi Cheng and He Xiang were surprised to see Lin Shanchu come out with

Number 1357•

He Xiang asked, “When did your uncle go in?”

Qi Cheng asked, “Did Mr. Lin fight with someone?”

“I had a conflict with the security guards inside just now,” Number 1357 replied expressionlessly.

Qi Cheng frowned slightly. “Even if there’s a conflict, they shouldn’t have hit you. I’ll go in and reason with them.”

It was a fabricated reason to begin with. How could he let Qi Cheng go in and argue with someone?

Number 1357 pulled Qi Cheng’s arm and said, “No need, I won. The other party’s injuries are worse than mine.”

“Oh, forget it then.” Qi Cheng gave up on the idea of arguing with someone.

If the other party’s injuries were more serious, he might have to pay for the medical expenses.

After parting ways with Qi Cheng and He Xiang, Lin Shanchu took Number 1357 to the court to pick up Huo Xunzhou.

Lin Shanchu waited in the car for a while. When she saw Huo Xunzhou come out, she got out of the car and went up to him.

Yun Jin and the others also went to observe the trial. Huo Xunzhou was walking in the middle and saying something to them from time to time.

Lin Shanchu deliberately walked past Huo Xunzhou, trying to sneak behind him.

As a result, Huo Xunzhou discovered her before she could do so.

“Shanshan.”

Lin Shanchu raised her head and met Huo Xunzhou’s gaze. Then, she pursed her lips and quickly walked up to him.

Huo Xunzhou immediately held her hand.

“How was the verdict?” Lin Shanchu asked.

“Aunt sued him too,” Huo Xunzhou said calmly. “He’ll be sentenced to life imprisonment, but he is going to file an appeal.”

“An appeal?”

That old man Huo Zhuxiu still had the nerve to file an appeal?
