After hanging up the phone, Yan Xiuze thought about it carefully and decided to take a look.
With the strength of his feet, it barely took long to arrive at the New York Police Department, where Thomas was temporarily held.
After being guided by the police officers, Yan Xiuze soon met Thomas in an interrogation room.
"The eye of the storm has long admired the great name."
Thomas, who had a calm face, sat opposite Yan Xiuze and said, "I don't think I need to introduce myself." ” "I didn't think you'd see me in a place like this."
Yan Xiuze raised his head and looked around the cold and gloomy interrogation room, and said with a little surprise.
Looking at Yan Xiuze's expression, Thomas, who had just been brought in by the police officer, couldn't help but shake his head and smiled: "It's not what you think."
"I wasn't tortured or tortured, and we met in the interrogation room because I couldn't think of any other place for the time being."
Thomaston paused, adding, "There's no place to watch." ” "Actually, you're still in the New York Police Department, and I'm surprised enough for that alone."
Yan Xiuze said: "Looking at your sports car, I feel that you shouldn't be particularly short of money, why don't you bail yourself out first" "One is that it's not necessary; The second is because of my status as a superpower, after all, it is different from ordinary people, and the third is that maybe I am safer to stay here.
Thomas explained.
"What does this mean" Yan Xiuze frowned, he always felt that Thomas seemed to have something to say, which made him feel that this might not be a simple case.
"That's why I'm looking for you."
Thomas's eyes darkened a little, and he whispered, "I heard that you've been taking some mercenary jobs lately."
"What, you want to hire me" The corners of Yan Xiuze's mouth curled, and he said with a smile: "But I have to remind you first, I don't do murder and arson, and I also have to look at the most important thing about the object, and my commission is not low." ” "Money is not an issue, and what I want you to do will definitely not go against your values."
Thomas said calmly.
"Okay, let's talk about what kind of commission it is."
Even if Thomas promised like this, Yan Xiuze was still very cautious, and did not agree immediately, but only asked tentatively.
"Help me investigate something."
"I need to know who hired De Witz to fight this lawsuit" "Didn't De Witz take over the position of the plaintiff's lawyer from the government," Yan Xiuze wondered.
Thomas shook his head: "De Wittz himself is very famous in New York, and his fame here is not only because of his super high rate of winning lawsuits, but also because of his unprofitable personality. ” "Now if you want to ask De Witz to fight a lawsuit, it will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars at every turn, how can a barrister who is already worth so much money suddenly take on such a case of meager pay and almost voluntary labor for no reason" "What I want you to find out is actually the guy who secretly hired him."
"You suspect that someone wants to deal with you secretly," Yan Xiuze said suspiciously: "You usually offend someone, you have to give me a list." ” Thomas shook his head: "I haven't offended anyone, and I haven't even revealed my superpowers to anyone, so I carefully hide myself, and I have never done anything out of the ordinary." ” "Then how can you be sure that the person who secretly wants to deal with you must exist" Yan Xiuze scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "Maybe De Weitz just thinks that this case is unheard of, and it is very novel for the current public, if he can win this lawsuit, he can also greatly enhance his popularity, isn't it?"
"I guess you just came to New York not long ago," Thomas said coldly, which made Yan Xiuze stunned.
"Actually, I got here a month ago, but this month, because of some work, I've been in heaven most of the time."
When Yan Xiuze said this, he heard the birdman he had been chasing for a whole month, and he couldn't help gritting his teeth.
"It's no wonder, and you can't blame you for not knowing."
Thomas sighed: "In fact, as early as half a month ago, when my case was still tried in the Texas District Court, it had attracted the attention of many local media. ” "You may not believe it, but almost when I attended the trial for the first time, the auditorium was filled with all kinds of reporters from big newspapers and tabloids, as well as many well-known self-media workers on the Internet, and it seemed that overnight, the whole of America knew that there was a superpower who could predict the future."
"But the reality is that before the first trial, I was able to foresee the future, and only the local police in Texas knew."
"Don't you think it's strange" Thomas said with a serious expression: "Where did these reporters or self-media practitioners get the news, but they are like moths that have seen the fire."
"Since this case was exposed by the local media, it quickly exploded on social networks throughout the United States, and countless netizens have been hotly discussing whether I am guilty or not on the Internet, and every message and expression they send is actually adding heat to this matter."
"And this heat has continued until now."
"You also saw how many reporters were at the door just trying to squeeze into the New York courthouse."
Thomas added: "And this is just the tip of the iceberg under the crazy heat of this national discussion." ” "From the beginning of the trial in the district court, no, even after I met the robber, everything began to be like a pair of invisible hands, manipulating it all," Thomas muttered, "but when I tried to see whose hand it was, it retracted just in time."
"One abnormal thing happened one after another, until now the plaintiff's lawyer, who was originally unknown, has been abnormally replaced by Dweitz" "It's hard for me to imagine that it's just a coincidence."
"I understand" Yan Xiuze nodded, and said slowly: "Since this is the case, I will accept this commission" "That's good."
"Aren't you surprised at all?"
"Don't forget what my superpowers are."
"Speaking of your superpowers, I do care a little about it."
Yan Xiuze asked with a smile, "Can you really predict the future?"
To Yan Xiuze's surprise, Thomas didn't seem to want to answer this question, and was rarely silent.
After waiting for a long time, I didn't see him reply, and a trace of embarrassment gradually began to fill the air. call In the end, Yan Xiuze, who was helpless, had to stand up and prepare to leave: "Since you don't want to say it, then I won't force you anymore."
However, at the moment when Yan Xiuze was about to walk out of the interrogation room, he was stopped by Thomas: "Wait a minute" Yan Xiuze turned around with some confusion.
"I have a question for you."
Thomas said.
"Suppose you're driving a train on the tracks, and there's a fork in the road ahead of you, and one of the tracks has a 99 percent chance of going to a cliff, and a 1 percent chance that nothing will happen; The other track is 100% safe, but with a stranger you don't know tied to the road, which path would you choose?"

Yan Xiuze obviously didn't expect Thomas to ask such a question, and was obviously stunned.
But after a while, he seemed to understand what Thomas was trying to say, his expression returned to normal, nodded his head, and said, "I understand." ” Then there was a "bang" and the door to the interrogation room was slammed
