The problem now is a bit serious.
Late at night in Paris, after dealing with Andrew, Bai Heqing and Mary returned to their previous apartment.
There was only one bed, and there wasn't even a sofa in the apartment.
The two of them are a little troubled now. How should they divide this bed?
The current situation is that although Andrew is dead, the French mafia who were deceived by him are still searching the two people in Paris because of Harry's death. These mafia members have deep influence in all classes of society in Paris. In this case, it was not easy for both of them to go out and find a hotel.
As for Stuart, although Bai Heqing called Stuart again and wanted to ask Stuart for another MI6 stronghold in Paris, however... the old man rejected him with a smile.
Although Stewart didn't explain the reason clearly, Bai Heqing also guessed it.
When he and Mary were in a coma and disappeared in the past two days, the old owner of the Hatoyama family called countless times that day, and every time he spat a lot of rubbish at Stuart, which made his head big.
The point is that Stewart can't spray him back because the person is indeed missing and he has not been found. He can only keep answering the phone and being sprayed. Even after the old Hatoyama family owner has finished spraying, the old man has to laugh again. To appease the old master's irritable mood...
Now that the man was found, Andrew, who had plotted against the two of them, was also dead. While Stuart felt relieved, he also recalled his experience of being sprayed in the past two days, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
No, I've been sprayed so badly by you, the old guy, in the past two days. I can't just let this matter go. I have to find some trouble for you, the old guy.
The "blockage" Stewart decided to find was Bai Heqing.
You old thing, you hold your grandson-in-law like a baby. Even when you go abroad for business, you still need me to help you protect it carefully, for fear of getting bumped...
Okay, just wait, I will arrange a beautiful girl for your precious grandson-in-law right now, put them in a room, and see if I will piss you off, old man?
What? Still want to trash talk me?
Hey hey hey, I won’t answer the phone this time. If you can, fly over to London and spray me~
Probably, it’s this kind of mentality, right?
This is Bai Heqing's speculation.
To put it bluntly, what happened tonight was actually just a "childish grudge" between these two old buddies, and it was only because they had a good relationship that they could fight...
"I'll go look for some extra bedding."
Standing in the dark apartment without turning on the lights, Mary walked straight to the bedroom after leaving these words, while Bai Heqing stood in the living room and sighed softly.
In fact, under normal circumstances, the two of them would not have to worry about this. Even if there is no sofa, one person can sleep on the bed and the other person can put the chairs together and they can barely cope with it for one night.
But the worst thing is that this is not a normal situation. The injuries on both of them have not healed yet. If they go to sleep on a chair in this situation, even if they can really fall asleep, the wounds will definitely open again when they get up the next day. Had to have a second surgery...
"well……"
Sighing again, Bai Heqing turned around and walked into the secret room in the study room of the apartment, picking up the landline microphone inside.
Let’s call Keiko first.
Although Stewart had not told Shirakawa the location of other strongholds before, he hinted that this phone could make long-distance calls and could transfer from London to Tokyo.
The old man's meaning couldn't be more obvious.
"beep……"
After pressing a string of phone numbers, Bai Heqing dialed a number in Tokyo.
"Transferring, please wait..."
As prompts kept ringing from the phone, after a long wait, a female voice that was extremely familiar to Bai Heqing finally rang on the phone.
"It's seven o'clock in the morning." As soon as the call was connected, the voice on the other side couldn't wait to speak.
The time difference between Paris and Tokyo is seven hours. It's still late at night just after twelve o'clock in Shirakawaqing, but it's already seven o'clock in the morning in Tokyo.
"So, let me guess which nasty guy is going to call and disturb me from sleeping at this time?"
"Keiko, it's me." Just hearing this voice, a smile subconsciously appeared on Bai Heqing's face.
"Oh oh oh~ So it's Xiao Qing?"
On the other end of the phone, Keiko Hatoyama said with a smile, pretending to be surprised:
"But even you can't easily forgive me for disturbing my sleep, right?"
"Sorry, it's my fault." Bai Heqing followed her words and took the initiative to admit his mistake.
"Humph, this kind of thing can't be solved with a small apology."
However, Hatoyama Keiko was unreasonable and deliberately said in a very sad tone:
"Poor me, my health is so bad that I have to stay in the hospital permanently, but I still have to worry about it all day and night because of some unintentional bad person...
Well, I’m so sad, I feel weak again, as if I’m going to die tomorrow…”
Anyone can hear that the sadness and sorrow in Hatoyama Keiko's words are all exaggerated performances deliberately made by her.
However, after hearing her words, the original smile on Bai Heqing's face gradually solidified and then disappeared.
"sorry."
He said very seriously over the phone.
"Keiko, you should pay more attention to your health, take good medicine, have a good rest, and don't worry too much about me. You know, I am very strong, and nothing will ever happen to me. Also, I am also very worried about you, and I am not worried about you either. I hope something unexpected happens to you because you are worried about me..."
"Uh-huh."
Hatoyama Keiko listened quietly to his somewhat stuttering words and seemed to be in a good mood.
"Xiao Qing, please tell me more, I would like to hear it."
She was always so straightforward, which made Bai Heqing, who was a little depressed, laugh softly again subconsciously.
But after laughing, his expression became a little sad.
I don’t know when Keiko started to like to use this exaggerated and playful expression to cover up all the negative emotions in her heart.
I don’t know when she started, but she suddenly became a person who wouldn’t be angry, sad, or upset.
"Click."
At this moment, there was an obvious sound of opening the door from Hatoyama Keiko's side.
"Wow~ This early in the morning, Xiaowuwan came to urge me to take medicine again. It's so scary..."
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Hatoyama Keiko complained and complained to Shirakawa Qing in a low voice:
"Wait, in two days I will ask grandpa to find a different hospital for me. I will make sure that Xiaowuwan can't find it even if she looks for it!"
As soon as she finished speaking, there was the sound of heels tapping on the floor on the other end of the phone, along with another female voice that Bai Heqing was familiar with.
"Keiko, don't stay in bed, get up and take medicine... Huh? What a surprise! Sister Keiko, who usually sleeps better than anyone else, got up early today?!"
This is the voice of the "Little Karasuma" mentioned by Shirakawa Kiyo and Hatoyama Keiko.
Later, she was known by another more common name - Sharon Wynyard.
