Lu Chi walked out of the classroom.
I asked Principal Huang, "Excuse me, Principal, is there something you need from me?"
Principal Huang said, "Your dad just called and asked you to come home after school at noon. He says he needs to talk to you about something."
"oh."
Lu Chi said "Oh" and went back to the classroom.
I was puzzled.
What happened at home? Why do they insist that the principal come in person to tell them?
Guagua: [Host, the police came to your house looking for you. They're waiting for you to come home in the living room.]
Lu Chi: [What do the police want with me?]
Guagua: [Of course there's something going on, you'll find out when you get there, host~]
Lu Chi: [Isn't that obvious...?]
...
The school bell finally rang, and Lu Chi returned home.
Indeed, I saw two policemen in the house.
After exchanging greetings, the police explained their purpose.
They came because of Wu Cuilan's matter!
Who is Wu Cuilan?
She was the old lady who had her fortune told by Lu Chi when he was taking orders at Pearl Lake.
At that time, Lu Chi told Wu Cuilan that her husband was under the apple tree in the backyard of her neighbor's house.
Wu Cuilan then called the police.
Upon investigation, the police indeed unearthed a skeleton under an apple tree in the neighbor's backyard.
DNA testing revealed that he was Wu Cuilan's missing husband.
Lu Chi: "Officers, you don't suspect me of being an accomplice, do you?"
Criminal Investigation Captain Li Ren'an glanced at Lu Chi, his stern face expressionless, his wise eyes revealing a hint of scrutiny.
"Lu Chi, can you tell us how you found out that Wu Cuilan's husband was buried under the neighbor's apple tree?"
Lu Chi: [This policeman clearly suspects I'm an accomplice.]
Guagua: [Yes, host. Since only you know the information, it's normal for them to suspect you.]
Lu Chi: "Officer, people won't believe this, but it was something I predicted through fortune telling."
Li Ren'an: "Lu Chi, believe in science and reject superstition. Please tell the truth! We have recorded every word you have said today. If you have lied, you will be held responsible."
Next to Lu Chi, Lu Yuanqing smoked a fine cigar, feeling somewhat worried.
Even though she knew her son had nothing to do with this matter, it was someone named Guagua who told her son from his inner voice.
But this kind of thing is too mysterious, and we can't just tell the police the truth.
Moreover, the details of Lu Chi's inner thoughts cannot be revealed by any means.
All those who heard Lu Chi's inner thoughts could only try to understand the message and convey it in other ways.
It's simply impossible to transmit it directly.
So, Lu Yuanqing, who hadn't planned to say anything, heard Li Ren'an's serious voice.
I'm a little unhappy.
He said to Li Ren'an, "Officer, my son never lies. He really is a fortune teller, and he's very accurate."
Li Ren'an looked up and glanced at Lu Yuanqing.
The once-famous richest man in Beijing could suddenly become all-powerful and influential.
However, he has always been known for his fairness, integrity, and impartiality.
We will not bow down to these evil forces.
Li Ren'an said coldly, "Lu Chi, you say you can tell fortunes, then prove it to me."
Lu Chi laughed and said, "Officer, if I can prove that I can tell fortunes and that I'm very accurate, will my suspicion be cleared?"
Li Ren'an remained silent, waiting for Lu Chi to prove himself.
Lu Chi glanced at Li Ren'an, suppressing a smile, and said, "Officer, there's a hole in your left sock around the big toe."
"Cough cough cough..." Li Ren'an coughed inexplicably.
Standing next to Li Ren'an was his subordinate Wang Hong, who was responsible for helping to record the cases.
Lu Chi pointed at Wang Hong and said:
"Officer Wang, you're wearing red underwear today because it's your birth year in the Chinese zodiac, and your wife bought it for you specially."
However, because you exerted yourself too much during your last mission, your underwear has a hole slightly to the left of the center. I'd like to ask if my calculation is accurate?
"Cough cough cough..." Wang Hong also started coughing for no apparent reason.
Lu Chi: "Officer Li, before you came to my house, the front left tire of your car was punctured by a nail, and you had the tire replaced at Yong'an Tire Factory. Am I right?"
Li Ren'an: "..."
Wang Hong: "..."
The two policemen asked for a long time but couldn't get any answers, so they had to go back for the time being.
After having lunch, Lu Chi strolled around the yard a few times before returning to his room for a nap.
...
A police car was parked in front of the police station.
Criminal investigation team leader Li Ren'an and Wang Hong sat in the driver's seat and the passenger seat, respectively.
The two were discussing what Lu Chi had just said.
Wang Hong asked Li Ren'an, "Captain Li, this is really amazing. How did Lu Chi know about our private affairs?"
Li Ren'an shook his head: "I don't believe in fortune telling, but this matter is indeed a bit strange. Forget it, let's deal with Wu Cuilan's case first, and then investigate this kid."
"Yes, Captain Li."
...
Lu Chi was soundly taking a nap.
Meanwhile, Su Yunian and her mother were sitting in the living room talking.
"Yu Nian, just focus on your studies and prepare for the exam. Mom will take care of everything. Don't worry about anything, so as not to affect your exam," Xie Qing said.
Having known about the affair for so long, Xie Qing is now much calmer when talking about her husband's betrayal.
Su Yunian shook her head: "Mom, don't worry, it won't affect my exam. Su Jingang's affair actually motivates me to study even more."
I will prove to him that I am far superior to his mistress's daughter. In the future, I will show him that betraying his family and choosing a mistress was the worst decision he ever made.
