To avoid giving herself away, Wu Yue did not respond directly, especially at such a sensitive time.
She quickly hugged her father's arm, her dark, grape-like eyes glistening with tears, and spoke in a coquettish tone, instantly melting anyone's heart: "Dad, I'm not hurt, look, I'm fine. It's just that I was afraid you'd worry if I told you, that's why I didn't... I'm sorry, Dad, please don't tell Mom about this either, okay?"
"You child, don't do it again."
Father Wu feigned anger, patted Wu Yue's head, his stern expression masking his tenderness: "From now on, you must let us know if anything happens, understand? Your mother and I are your closest people. If you don't tell us, who else can you tell? Silly child!"
"Mmm-hmm-hmm."
Whether there will be a next instance or not, we don't know; we still have to keep it a secret.
How can she tell them about all the strange things that have happened to her recently?
Don't tell me they've been mistaken for a mental patient and taken to a mental hospital.
...
After the father and daughter finished speaking, Liu Qinghou asked again, "Wu Yue, could I take up a little of your time?"
The girl smiled politely and sweetly, cooperating well: "Sorry, officer, to avoid trouble, I can't ride in your car to the school. However, you can send someone to ride in our car to inquire."
"That's only right, that's what I thought too. Then I'll trouble you two."
The leading police officer had a refined appearance and spoke politely, which made a good impression on Wu Yue.
Of course, she understood that appearance was just the initial impression. Liu Qinghou was no pushover, and he was not the approachable person his appearance suggested.
Fortunately, he had a good attitude; if it had been someone with a worse attitude, Wu Yue would never have allowed him to get on the bus.
Father Wu's gaze swept thoughtfully over the few strands of hair that fell across his daughter's cheek before settling on her face.
When did she become so calm and composed?
He remained calm and composed when questioned by the police.
He should be happy, but deep down he felt a sense of loss.
They used to think Xiaoyue could live independently, so they hired people to take care of her and gave her endless money. It was in this process that he lost the opportunity to participate in her childhood and adolescence.
Before we knew it, the little girl who used to babble and take her first steps has grown up.
Father Wu's heart was filled with mixed feelings.
My good mood this morning has unknowingly turned sour.
With permission, Liu Qinghou and another police officer got into the Wu family's car, while the police car remained where it was.
Wu Yue sat up and placed her schoolbag on her lap: "Please ask."
Before arriving, Liu Qinghou had heard from Lao Gao that this young girl was incredibly composed. Even after learning that the other party was a fugitive, she could still calmly ask them for the reward, which had already surprised the officers in their team.
Lao Gao, whose full name is Gao Qinbang, was the person in charge of the police report that Wu Yue made during the trial, and the captain of a criminal investigation team.
“Wu Yue, the fugitive’s name is Lei Hengshan. We successfully arrested him half a month ago thanks to your tip and put him in jail. The jail is heavily guarded; not even a bird can fly away.”
“But just two days ago, Lei Hengshan suddenly disappeared from his cell. We asked his cellmates, and they said they didn’t hear anything and didn’t know what happened. Our surveillance footage didn’t show where he escaped from or how he got away. This man just vanished into thin air, without a trace.”
Wu Yue nodded and gave a soft "hmm".
If what the police officer said is true.
On a simple scale, the statements might be inaccurate, or the surveillance footage might have been tampered with. Of course, the probability of this happening is extremely low.
Wu Yue preferred to think more deeply about it; perhaps this was an act of inhuman behavior.
It's perfectly normal that Captain Liu and his team couldn't find it.
