"Two days? Impossible, impossible... One day, I only give you twenty-four hours. If you can't get the money in twenty-four hours, then you go to the bottom of Lake Ontario to find your sister. Prepare the money

Just call me, again, don't play tricks, and don't expect calling the police will help your sister." After the other party said this, he didn't give Hu Mingchen a chance to speak, and hung up the phone with a bang.

.

"Hey, hello..." After saying hello twice, seeing that the other party made no movement at all, Hu Mingchen could only frown and stare at the phone in his hand.

"Dong dong dong..." Just three seconds after hanging up the phone, the door was knocked from outside.

"Xiaochen, open the door, Xiaochen, open the door quickly..."

Hu Mingchen licked his lips, took another deep breath, then stood up and opened the door.

"Xiaochen, did something happen?"

"Did something happen to your sister?"

Hu Jianjun and Jiang Yucai asked strangely outside the door.

"No, it's nothing." Hu Mingchen replied unnaturally with a stiff expression.

Hu Mingchen's instinctive reaction now is not to let his parents worry. Once they know about this matter, especially Jiang Yucai, they will definitely lose control of their emotions.

"Don't lie to me. Although we can't understand it, we can feel it. Just tell me if something happened to your sister abroad. Otherwise, why would they call?" Jiang Yucai pulled Hu Mingchen's hand.

The worry and anxiety on his hands and face couldn't be concealed at all.

"Yes, Xiaochen, we were listening at the door just now. You seemed to have had a quarrel with someone. Now I think of it. What you were talking about was in English. Who else could it be if it wasn't your sister? If something happens, don't leave.

Hiding it from us." Hu Jianjun continued.

Hu Jianjun was not as excited as Jiang Yucai, but he also had a sad face and stared at Hu Mingchen expectantly.

Hu Mingchen wanted to tell them a white lie, but when he looked down at his mother's phone number in his hand, Hu Mingchen felt that this lie was not easy to make up.

Maybe they will find someone to call and ask about the situation. In addition, this mobile phone can only be kept in Hu Mingchen's own hands and cannot be returned to his mother Jiang Yucai immediately.

Hu Mingchen turned around silently, came to the chair in front of his window and sat down.

"Are you talking? What's going on? How is your sister Xiaodie?" Seeing that Hu Mingchen didn't speak, Jiang Yucai became even more anxious. She rushed over and leaned against Hu Mingchen's desk, patting the tabletop of the desk and asked eagerly.

The more Hu Mingchen doesn't speak, the more problems there are. They may be lacking in culture, but it doesn't mean they don't even have this sense.

"I had a bad feeling when this call came. Xiaochen, don't hide it. Tell us, no matter what happens, we are her parents and we should always know." Hu Jianjun also walked up.

, asked Hu Mingchen in a heavy tone.

Hu Mingchen raised his eyes and looked at Hu Jianjun and Jiang Yucai. After the silence just now, Hu Mingchen made a decision. Hu Mingchen couldn't hide it from Hu Jianjun and Jiang Yucai, but he couldn't tell them the truth either.

"There is indeed something wrong with my sister, but it's not a big problem. She just broke her leg while exercising..." Hu Mingchen said with a new excuse.

The excuse Hu Mingchen found not only allowed them to feel relieved and worry a little bit, but it would not be too uncontrollable. At least the worries could be controlled within a certain range.

"You broke your leg? Why did you break your leg? Is it serious? Will you become a lame? Who made that call? Since you broke your leg, your sister can make the call by herself. No, I

Call her now and ask about the situation." Jiang Yucai was not stupid and immediately caught many loopholes in Hu Mingchen's words.

"No, don't worry, the call is from her classmate, an American classmate, so they won't say what we say. It's useless for you to call my sister's phone. Her phone is out of power and turned off. Besides, she

Mobile phones are not allowed in the hospital. American hospitals are very strict. Do you think this is our hospital? It's okay. Don't worry. I will go over to see her as soon as possible and send him medical expenses." Hu Mingchen

As soon as I rolled my eyes, I immediately thought of the reason for getting rid of the trap.

Hu Mingchen has had a flexible mind since he was a child. This flaw was not a problem for Hu Mingchen at all, and he was fooled by it in just a few words.

Both Hu Jianjun and Jiang Yucai lack understanding of foreign situations. Let alone learning foreign languages, they don't even watch foreign movies, even watching TV. They think they look difficult. It is because of this information asymmetry that Hu Mingchen's reasons are even more complicated.

Tenable.

"Are you going to the United States?" Hu Jianjun asked.

"Well, my sister is like this, I have no choice but to go, not to mention, there are still medical bills waiting at the hospital." Hu Mingchen said.

"Special code, what kind of developed country is it? The first superpower in the world. It is stingy. How is it any different from us? If there is no medical fee, it will not give medicine or treatment? No wonder I often hear on TV that the United States is a gangster.

." Hu Mingchen emphasized medical expenses again, and Hu Jianjun immediately became angry.

"How much medical expenses will it cost? Can't we beat it? I still have tens of thousands of dollars..." Jiang Yucai followed.

"Mom, you don't have to worry about the money. I will take care of it here. Your tens of thousands of dollars are of no use. Things are very expensive in the United States. In a situation like my sister's, it would cost at least hundreds of thousands if she went to the hospital. My sister

After all, this classmate is not familiar with us, so it’s impossible to call him hundreds of thousands at once. Besides, in my sister’s situation, at least our family has to go see him personally.”

"Oh, yes, hundreds of thousands, you really can't leave it to someone you can trust." Jiang Yucai suddenly said.

To Hu Mingchen, hundreds of thousands was an insignificant amount, but in Jiang Yucai's eyes, hundreds of thousands was still a large amount. Jiang Yucai was very worried about handing over such a large amount of money to someone who didn't know the details.

"Then you will go after the exam tomorrow?" Hu Jianjun asked.

Hu Mingchen looked at her watch. They only gave her twenty-four hours. She couldn't wait until the exam was finished tomorrow before setting off. By the time Hu Mingchen finished the exam in the morning, more than ten hours would have passed. By then, it would be too late to rush to the United States.

At that time, we can only hope that paying one million US dollars can ensure Hu Yandie's safety.

Hu Mingchen didn't care about one million US dollars, or even 10 or 100 million US dollars. As long as his sister could be safe and sound, Hu Mingchen would be willing to pay no matter how much money.

It's just that Hu Mingchen couldn't trust those bad guys, so he was worried that he had paid money here and received money there, but he was not trustworthy and continued to harm Hu Yandie.

Don't think that all these evil people are trustworthy. In fact, for their own safety, there are many who are not trustworthy.

Since Hu Yandie could be called by them to talk to Hu Mingchen, Hu Yandie has most likely seen what these people look like. From a common sense point of view, even if these villains took the money, they would still worry about her choosing to call the police after letting Jiang Yucai go.

.

For their own safety, these people will do anything.

Many people yearn for the United States, but the public security in the United States is really unsatisfactory, not to mention that more than 30,000 people are killed in shooting cases every year. There are countless criminal cases that occur in the streets and alleys every day. In China, even in the middle of the night,

Single men and women can also walk on the streets, but in the United States, even in big cities like New York and Los Angeles, the streets are not so safe after ten o'clock in the evening. Even locals, many will choose this time not to go out. Be honest.

of staying at home.

"Dad, Mom, I have to leave now. I can't wait until tomorrow. Even if I go to the United States now, it will take at least ten hours. It would be better for my sister to get treatment earlier. I'm worried that she will stay if I delay.

Sequelae. Of course, don’t worry, the medical standards in the United States are higher than ours. As long as you pay, I believe it will be no problem to cure my sister." Hu Mingchen stood up and started to pack the things he needed to go out.

, especially documents.

"Then you don't want to take the exam? This is the college entrance examination, and you only have one subject left. If you go now, you won't be able to pass the next subject." Hu Jianjun said in surprise. He didn't expect that Hu Mingchen would even take the college entrance examination for Hu Yandie.

Also give up.

Hu Mingchen didn't want to give up, but now he had no choice. He only had twenty-four hours, and if he didn't leave now, he wouldn't be able to arrive tomorrow.

Even if Hu Mingchen gives money, he must give it in person and ensure Hu Yandie's safety. Otherwise, Hu Mingchen will not feel at ease. He may not care about money, but he cannot care about Hu Yandie's safety.

It is a pity to lose one subject's college entrance examination results, but compared with Hu Yandie's safety, it is nothing. Even if it were to happen again, Hu Mingchen would choose to give up. Anyway, Hu Mingchen did not expect to go to college, find a job and live a life.

"It's a little later, just a little later. You have taken the four subjects. If you don't take the last subject, then your university... I think you should listen to your father and go there after the exam tomorrow.

At worst, we will go with you." Jiang Yucai advised from the side.

Hu Mingchen stuffed his passport into his bag, picked up his phone and sent a text message: "Mom, it's no problem for me to go to college. At the worst, I can just find any university. I can even pay to go to college outside. This is not the case.

The problem is, if it really doesn’t work, can I still do it next year?

Take the exam. But my sister doesn’t wait for anyone. If she suffers sequelae because she is more than ten hours late, it will be a lifelong regret and harm her for the rest of her life. Well, don’t worry, I’ll leave now, I’ll get to Zhennan

Let’s go see if there are any flights to the United States.”

Ever since Schultz and the others came from the United States last time, Hu Mingchen had made preparations for his departure abroad. He had already entrusted an agency to get all his documents, so now he only needs to bring the money and documents to go out.
