Lu Qing's heart skipped a beat. Of course, she couldn't say that she had been tricked into marrying him by being someone's mistress.
So she downplayed the issue, saying, "It has nothing to do with this case. Didn't you find Li Huade?"
"I saw on his household registration that he's a local!"
The police officer said coldly, "Based on your description, and the address and name on your ID card, we found that Li Huade passed away two years ago."
Lu Qing's mind went blank for a moment: "Impossible!"
"I just went to the real estate bureau with him yesterday to complete the property transfer procedures!"
The police officer said coldly, "The surveillance cameras at the housing bureau were broken yesterday, so we can't prove anything, but one thing is certain: the person you went through the transfer procedures with wasn't Li Huade!"
Lu Qing tried to calm herself down, her voice trembling as she questioned, "So my house is now registered under a dead person's name?"
The police officer shook his head with a stern face: "It was just transferred to a comrade named Zhao Aihua today."
Lu Qing collapsed to the ground. There was still something she didn't understand, but Zhao Aihua kept staring at her.
After going through all this trouble, all I wanted was to quietly and secretly take control of the house from her.
The police officer coldly questioned, "What is your relationship with Li Xun, Zhao Aihua's family member?"
Lu Qing was on the verge of a breakdown. She forced herself to stand up, knowing that continuing to make a scene would not lead to anything good.
After all, Zhao Aihua is much more ruthless than Xu Xintong. Xu Xintong managed to make her suffer so much back then, so Zhao Aihua's methods would only be more cruel.
Moreover, Zhao Aihua dared to say this because she was certain that the other woman wouldn't dare to make a fuss.
If things really come to a head, Lu Qing is suspected of assisting Li Xun in transferring marital assets, and she may go to jail.
So she gave a wry smile and said, "I'm not going to report it. Let's drop the case."
The police officer immediately frowned: "Involving a large amount of counterfeit currency is a criminal offense. You can't just withdraw the charges because you want to."
Lu Qing looked up at the police officer with a tense face and said, "So what do you want to do next?"
The police officer's face turned ashen with anger: "You'd better tell the truth, what exactly happened?"
“This house was transferred directly from you to Zhao Aihua; there was no Li Huade involved, as you mentioned.”
Lu Qing felt a chill run down her spine; she didn't want to stay in Kyoto for even a second longer.
Lu Qing simply sat down on the ground and recounted her story with Li Xun, explaining that Li Xun had paid for the house.
The police officer's expression remained unchanged after hearing this. He put away the record and said, "Zhao Aihua did ask someone to help her with the transfer of ownership, but she refused to say who helped her. Moreover, these counterfeit bills were not given to you by Zhao Aihua. She doesn't know anything about these counterfeit bills."
“She directly told you that her husband was keeping you as a mistress, and you felt guilty, so you voluntarily returned the house to her before leaving Kyoto.”
“There are no fingerprints of Zhao Aihua on the counterfeit money. If you can’t prove that these counterfeit money are related to Zhao Aihua, then there’s no way to link this matter to her.”
Lu Qing curled the corners of her lips and said sarcastically, "Her family background must be very powerful!"
The policeman didn't say anything. He was a veteran policeman who had served as a reconnaissance soldier in the army, so he naturally saw through the trickery involved.
But he had already been instructed by his superiors to confiscate and destroy all the counterfeit money, close the case as soon as possible, and not implicate Zhao Aihua.
Seeing that the police didn't speak, Lu Qing naturally understood everything. If she continued to pursue the matter, she would only go to jail, so she struggled to get up and walked out.
She felt as if all her strength had been drained away, and she had no energy left.
But after leaving the police station, she found that she had nowhere to go.
Lu Qing stood there for a moment before walking towards the train station. This time, she chose to return to the county without hesitation.
At least for now, she still has a chance to find Guan Xiuqin; she still has more than 2,500 yuan on her.
After buying her train ticket home, she waited carefully in the waiting room.
She didn't know how long it had been, but just as she was about to fall asleep, it was finally time to depart.
She hurried toward the train she needed to take, and breathed a sigh of relief after successfully boarding the train.
However, the next moment she realized something was wrong. Her pocket had been slashed open, and she didn't even know when her money was gone, and that more than 1,000 yuan was missing.
Lu Qing could no longer hold back and burst into tears. She didn't understand why everything was going wrong for her, and she vaguely felt that her life shouldn't be like this.
But now she felt a deep sense of powerlessness welling up from the bottom of her heart.
The people around her stared at her speechlessly; most people are sleepy when taking the train at midnight.
Her crying was so loud and piercing that it kept everyone around her from getting any rest.
But seeing her in such a state of collapse, most people couldn't bear to say anything to her.
It took about half an hour for Lu Qing to finally calm down.
Fortunately, she still had 1,500 yuan left. If she had run out of money, she would have wanted to die.
After a day and a night on the train, she finally returned to the city.
She then took the train back to the county without stopping.
Upon arriving in the county, she went directly to the fertilizer plant to find Guan Xiuqin.
But after making some inquiries, she learned that Guan Xiuqin had injured her leg a couple of days ago and was on sick leave at home.
I heard that Guan Xiuqin was helping the factory director's daughter, Liang Min, take care of her child. The child was so naughty that Guan Xiuqin accidentally fell while taking care of him.
She couldn't help but frown. She had heard Guan Xiuqin say that Director Liang's family was well-off, and that they couldn't possibly be so poor as to not be able to afford a nanny.
Besides, Liang Min already has her parents-in-law, so it's not her place as the stepmother-in-law, Guan Xiuqin, to help take care of the child.
Despite her thoughts, she still inquired about Guan Xiuqin's current address and rushed over there.
Guan Xiuqin now lives with Director Liang in the staff compound. She deliberately covers her face, afraid that someone will recognize her.
After entering the staff compound and finding Guan Xiuqin's home, she raised her hand and knocked on the door.
After waiting for a long time, the door finally opened. Guan Xiuqin stood inside, leaning on her cane. When she saw Lu Qing, a look of shock appeared on her face.
Although Lu Qing was covered up very well, she was still Guan Xiuqin's biological daughter, and Guan Xiuqin recognized her at a glance.
"Xiao Qing, Xiao Yao said you've been missing. I've been really worried about you. Where have you been all this time?"
Guan Xiuqin said with great concern.
Then, with red eyes, she questioned, "How could you be so foolish as to abandon your studies for a little money?"
Lu Qing kept a straight face, wiped away her tears, and choked out, "Let's go inside and talk, don't talk here, Mom, I miss you so much."
Guan Xiuqin also missed her very much, especially when her life in the Liang family was not easy, she missed her children even more.
She immediately pulled Lu Qing inside, limped a few steps with her cane, closed the door, and invited Lu Qing to sit on the sofa.
Lu Qing looked at the house and saw that it was well-ventilated from north to south and quite spacious, at least a hundred square meters. No wonder it was where the factory director lived.
