Seeing how skillfully Yin Chengjue carried Rong Yu out of the kitchen, the whole family showed a unified expression of sympathy, even Murong Xiaosi, who was lying on the ground, cried out.
Fortunately, there were still ingredients in the refrigerator, and there was also a spare kitchen on the second floor, so the family didn't have to go out to find food during the Lunar New Year.
As for why there's a spare kitchen... everyone knows.
The two of them naturally managed to get lunch and dinner there.
However, midway through dinner, Murong Shu received an urgent phone call.
To be honest, given Murong Shu's profession and position, it's already quite remarkable that he could stay home peacefully for three or four days without receiving any mission calls. So when we saw him eating, answering the phone, putting down his chopsticks, standing up with a serious expression, and quickly running upstairs, only to come running back down in less than a minute, pulling up his pants and clothes with one hand as he went, everyone was used to it.
The housekeeper thoughtfully went out to arrange a car for Murong Shu. Aunt Li, who happened to be coming out of the kitchen, saw this scene, went back into the kitchen, and quickly took out a boxed lunch and filled it with Murong Shu's favorite dishes.
Rong Yueya also helped to put the food into the lunchbox, and the new cook, reminded by Aunt Li, brought out a thermos of health tea for Murong Shu.
Rong Yueya took the bottle from the cook, unscrewed it, smelled it, then screwed it back on and put it in her bag along with the boxed lunch.
So when Murong Shu put down his phone, Aunt Li had already put the lunchbox bag in his hand.
Rong Yueya said, "You didn't get to eat much just now. Here, take this. If you have a chance, grab a bite to tide you over."
Murong Shu nudged her: "No need this time, Mom, I probably can't eat anymore."
After saying that, he turned his gaze to Rong Yu: "Xiao Yu, you come too."
The others were all stunned.
Why is Rong Yu involved?
Murong Shu's expression was serious: "Get in the car first, we'll talk on the way."
Rong Yu blinked, immediately reached out and picked up a chicken leg, stuffed it into her mouth, and then pulled it down until only a bone remained.
Rong Yu took out a wet wipe and wiped her hands.
Yin Chengjue also stood up: "I'll go too."
Murong Shu glanced at Yin Chengjue and nodded.
The three of them got into the car together, and Murong Shucai said, "We just arrested another drug trafficking gang. They had just finished a transaction, and our team immediately checked the Skynet system to track their whereabouts and found out who their trading partner was."
Murong Shu: "After these people received the goods, they immediately entered a nearby private supermarket in batches and did not come out. So our people disguised themselves and went in. They quickly found out that there were illegal operations inside the private supermarket."
Rong Yu finally swallowed the chicken leg in her mouth, took the water Yin Chengjue handed her and gulped down a few mouthfuls, then pulled out a tissue to wipe her mouth: "Second brother, get to the point."
Murong Shu: "The key point is that after our people went in, they caught those people who were gathering to do drugs red-handed. But when they were counting heads, they discovered that one of them was a member of your boy band."
Rong Yu: !
Murong Shu: "After recognizing him, I investigated further and found that five of them were artists under Chang's Dongyuan Entertainment."
Dongyuan Entertainment?
In the GCD boy band, it seems that there is only one artist signed with Dongwon Entertainment, right?
Murong Shu continued, "Next is the reason why you had to come today, Xiaoyu. This artist from your boy band implicated you after being taken to the interrogation room."
"What?" they both exclaimed at the same time.
Murong Shu: "There's no other way, so according to procedure, you have to go to the police station for a check-up. After confirming that everything is fine, you'll give a statement and then you can leave."
Yin Chengjue immediately thought of something else: "Were you making any big moves during your investigation today? Did you attract any reporters?"
Murong Shu: "This is not within my scope of responsibility; I am only responsible for investigating cases."
Yin Chengjue: "Putting everything else aside, if Xiaoyu's visit to the police station is filmed and uploaded to the internet, then the haters will definitely take the opportunity to stir up trouble."
Murong Shu: "...You guys are such a nuisance. If you're upright, you have nothing to fear. If the inspection is normal, we'll provide proof."
Yin Chengjue, however, had already begun contacting Sally and Rong Yu's public relations teams to prepare quickly.
Rong Yu is now a public figure, and although she has nothing to hide, the results had already spread all over the internet by the time they came out.
Yin Chengjue absolutely did not want the name Rong Yu to be associated with this thing.
Yin Chengjue: "Furthermore, have you ever considered that you are Xiaoyu's second brother, her own brother? If this relationship between you is revealed, even if Xiaoyu's medical report is subsequently released, proving that Xiaoyu did not use drugs, how many people will be willing to believe it?"
"Don't worry about that," Murong Shu said. "If it were Murong He, I wouldn't be able to guarantee anything, but Xiao Yu, not many people know about my relationship with him yet. That brat ran away from home after arguing with his family not long after returning to the country. The old man hasn't even had a chance to introduce him to people yet."
Yin Chengjue: "..." That's true.
However, just to be on the safe side, Yin Chengjue still gave the public relations team a heads-up.
“Actually, I think what you said makes sense,” Rong Yu said. “Second brother, you’ve been investigating this case for so long, and you’ve made several arrests without success. If it weren’t for the TJ gang leader’s own stupidity, you wouldn’t have been able to catch this lead. How come they caught people just when you went home for the New Year? And they caught two groups at once, both the sellers and the buyers. It was a great victory!”
Murong Shu raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean by that?"
Rong Yu spread her hands: "What I mean is, there might be an undercover agent in your department, and that undercover agent might have been discovered, so he cut off his own finger and did this while you were away, intending to pin the blame on you."
Rong Yu: "Otherwise, how do you explain that you, as the team leader, only found out about this after they had finished? And coincidentally, among those who were caught, there was a member of the boy band your brother belongs to, and then that member implicated your own brother."
Murong Shu drove with a serious expression, clearly pondering Rong Yu's words.
As soon as Yin Chengjue sent a message to Sally, she immediately replied with a long string of question marks and exclamation marks, clearly provoked by the message.
Yin Chengjue put down his phone and pondered Rong Yu's words: "If that's the case, if Second Brother is suspected, then was the information given to Second Brother in the phone call just now a lie, just to test Second Brother?"
"For example..." Murong Shu said, "Could we bring Xiaoyu along as well?"
Yin Chengjue: "When you can bring him along, your relationship is already complicated, although it will definitely be found out later."
Murong Shu: "...Let's go over there first, don't just guess here."
Yin Chengjue then added, "But those people certainly didn't expect that you would actually bring me along."
Murong Shu and Rong Yu: ?
Yin Chengjue's lips curled slightly as he took a bottle of wine out of the bag.
This is the bag Rong Yueya slipped to Yin Chengjue when she learned that Rong Yu and Yin Chengjue were also leaving and wouldn't be staying for dinner. The Murong family was clearly used to their family members suddenly leaving after receiving a phone call, so they always had a bag of snacks ready to grab at any time.
After taking the bag, Yin Chengjue also took a bottle of wine and put it inside.
"Brother..." Rong Yu asked, puzzled, "Do you usually like to drink?"
Yin Chengjue calmly explained, "It's precisely because I don't usually drink it that I thought I'd try it occasionally."
Rong Yu was stunned for three seconds before she reacted, and lightly punched Yin Chengjue's shoulder: "Brother, you're bad!"
Believe it or not, I'll just open the window and throw you all out.
Sensing the resentment coming from the driver's seat, Yin Chengjue quickly got back to the point: "But now this bottle of wine has another more crucial use."
Yin Chengjue didn't keep them in suspense and said directly, "I got drunk, and Xiaoyu helped me in. That way, even if reporters were staking out the place and took pictures of Xiaoyu helping me in while I was drunk, and then posted them online, they would only think that something happened to me, and that Xiaoyu was just helping me in. Not only that, if there's something that can't be explained to my second brother, I can also act a little crazy while I'm drunk."
Murong Shu and Rong Yu: "..."
“Brother…” Rong Yu couldn’t help but sigh, “You really are…”
Murong Shu: "I have nothing to say."
Yin Chengjue strongly suspected that Murong Shu actually meant "scoundrel".
However, when necessary, resorting to shamelessness can be quite useful.
Murong Shu rolled his eyes at the rearview mirror: "You just wanted to take advantage of your drunkenness to get close to my brother, didn't you? You were supposed to be locked in the room, but now you have an excuse to do this in front of everyone?"
Yin Chengjue: "..." Cough cough cough!
Rong Yu glared at Murong Shu, somewhat embarrassed and annoyed: "Second brother! Some things you can just think about in your heart, you don't have to say them out loud. Can't I pretend I don't know anything? I just want to experience what it feels like to be completely unaware and then have my brother take advantage of me!"
Murong Shu: "..." Can this kind of younger brother really be kept until after the New Year? I'm afraid he'll be on his seventh day of mourning before the Lantern Festival even arrives!
Twenty minutes later, the car arrived at the police station.
Seeing a large group of reporters already waiting in front of the police station, and the frequent flashes of camera flashes, Murong Shu gripped the steering wheel and chose to park in a parking space outside first.
As soon as the car stopped, people noticed it, and some reporters walked over, wanting to see if the person getting out of the car was the one they were expecting.
Murong Shu was the first to open the car door and get out. His face was illuminated by the lights, and the reporters were all excited!
"It's Murong Shu!"
"Murong Shu is here!"
"Mr. Murong! May I ask you a few questions?"
