Chapter 1621
As for Tina, she has long since disappeared.
The living room is quiet.
Peter guessed that Tina had already left, but he still went to the kitchen with a little hope.
There was no one in the kitchen, so he went to the bathroom.
There is no one in the bathroom.
The last glimmer of hope came to nothing, Peter sat down on the sofa a little frustrated, and suddenly remembered that Brian said yesterday that there will be a formal performance today.
At this time, his cell phone rang.
It was from Rubin.
His face was slightly upright, and Rubin generally wouldn’t call early in the morning. Once he called, there must be something serious.
Peter answered the phone and uttered a word: “Say.”
Rubin’s solemn voice came over the phone: “Mr. Grant, something happened to Cody…”
…
Because of Rubin’s phone call, Peter had to give up the idea of ​​going to Tina’s performance and drove away.
Before leaving, he called Tina, but it showed that no one answered. She is most likely to be performing at this time.
He sent her another message: “In an urgent matter, go back first.”
After sending the message, he started the car, but after thinking about it, he felt that he was not very clear, so he picked up the phone and said: “It’s a very important thing.”
After sending it out, he threw away the phone and drove back.
When he arrived at the hospital, Rubin was waiting for him at the door.
When Rubin took Peter upstairs, he briefly explained the situation to him.
When the two arrived at the door of the ward, a circle of people had gathered at the door.
They are all people who grew up in a circle, knowing Peter and Cody.
Their friendship circles overlapped extremely high, and the people gathered at the door of the ward would call Peter serious when they saw him.
“Mr. Grant!”
“Mr. Grant is here!”
Peter walked over and looked around: “It’s all here, it’s hard to get together once, but it’s all here today.”
“Mr. Scott has something like this, can’t you come and see it,” someone said.
“Yeah, who would have thought that Mr. Scott wouldn’t even think about it? Although something went wrong with Scott’s family, but the green hills are still there, I’m not afraid that there is no firewood…”
“This matter is a big blow to Mr. Scott, and none of you can talk about it later…”
Peter asked: “How is he?”
“He hasn’t woken up yet, we are thinking, when he wakes up later, we should go in to see him together, or two less people should go in. If we go less, we are afraid that he will feel that no one cares about him, so we all go. I’m afraid he will feel hurt…”
“Pretentious.” Peter snorted: “I’ll stay here, I’ll go.”
As soon as Peter opened the door and went in, Cody, who was lying on the hospital bed, sat up with his body supported. When he saw Peter, his face was startled, and he hurriedly turned his head and looked out the window.
With what he looks like today, he really has no face to see Peter again.
“I rushed to see you early in the morning and you don’t even give me a straight face. You are quite crazy.” Peter raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Cody with a smile.
Cody still couldn’t tell that Peter was deliberately saying something ironic.
He sighed, and slowly turned his head to look at Peter: “You shouldn’t come to see me, I am like this, and I don’t want you to see it.”
“You don’t want to do it? Everyone is here, just outside.” Peter raised his chin and pointed out the door.
“I heard it.” Cody smiled weakly: “I actually woke up a long time ago, but I didn’t dare to call someone.”
He used to be full of spirits before, but he didn’t expect to be like this.
Chapter 1622
Peter looked at Cody in silence for a moment, then solemnly said: “Cody Scott.”
He suddenly called Cody’s full name. Cody was taken aback for a while before he reacted: “What?”
“If you are a man, don’t do anything like this kind of unpromising thing. As long as you want to stand up, you can definitely stand up.”
Peter would only say something gentler and softer when facing Tina. Here, Cody used the way of talking between brothers.
“I…” Cody’s expression turned a little weird: “What’s the promise?”
Peter saw that his face was wrong, and asked, “Didn’t you go out to the sea to play by yourself and commit suicide by diving?”
“Suicide?” Cody was taken aback, and shook his head: “I didn’t. I didn’t commit suicide. Although I did think about it, I just thought about it. I still have my parents. They are still so tired of me. Hold on, where am I going to commit suicide.”
Peter twisted his eyebrows slightly and fell into thought.
Cody also realized that something was wrong: “Do you all think I committed suicide?”
Peter gave him a look of “what do you think?”
Cody recalled carefully: “I really wanted to go out to sea to relax yesterday, so I went without taking anyone. I remember I was just standing on the bow and blowing the sea breeze, and I slipped when I stood up…”
Having said that, he gave a violent feel: “I see, it’s the crew member! He pushed me!”
“What does it look like and what is it for?” Peter asked immediately.
“He was wearing a hat and sunglasses. I didn’t see what he looked like. I only vaguely remembered that there was a mole on his neck…”
But there are too many people who have a mole on their neck. This is not a significant feature. It is hard to find a lot of people like this.
Cody realized this by himself, and his expression became a little difficult to look like: “What did he push me for? I have no grudges with him…”
“Is there really no grievances or hatreds?” Peter asked.
Many things have happened to people around him recently.
First Cody, then Tina had an accident.
It’s just that the incident about Tina happened too suddenly, and it was Cathy who did it, so Peter didn’t think much about it at the time, let alone connect with Cody’s incident.
But now, Peter vaguely feels that all this may not just be accidental.
In the dark, what might be the connection?
“We are all ready to declare bankruptcy. The underground casino will logically not do anything to us anymore. They only ask for money and are not harmful. They also have the rules of the world…”
Cody shook his head: “I don’t think it can be an underground casino person.”
Peter looked down and thought for a moment =, and asked: “Have you observed any strange things happening recently?”
“Strange things…” Cody thought about it carefully.
Suddenly, his face was startled, and the expression in his eyes staring at Peter became a little weird: “There is indeed one, but it is not particularly strange…”
“What’s the matter?” Peter asked.
Cody hesitated: “A little thing.”
Peter narrowed his eyes slightly and said nothing.
Cody obviously didn’t want to tell him.
Today, his and Peter’s identities are already very different. Peter is not only more noble, but even more intimidating.
Cody was so stared at by him that he dared not look directly into his eyes.
He knew that once he lied, he would be dismantled by Peter.
So he asked him: “Do you like Tina?”
