Chapter 55 Severing ties? Fine, you're not allowed to set foot in the Lu family again.



Lu Yi handed one of the copies to Qin Fengying, "Two copies, please keep them safe!"

After saying that, he thanked Officer Ma, who was still standing there in a daze.

He turned and strode away.

Qin Fengying hurriedly shouted and chased after him, but Lu Yi seemed not to hear her and was gone in the blink of an eye.

After regaining his composure, Officer Ma looked at the young man's dejected figure, shook his head, and sighed.

"Give him some time! Even an adult might not be able to withstand this kind of blow, let alone a child like him!"

Qin Fengying frantically grabbed the paper in her hand.

"What should we do about this, Officer Ma? What should we do about this?"

Officer Ma said, "I know you two have had a paternity test done, and the mother-son relationship won't change because of it. The biggest benefit... is probably just to make him feel better!"

"As long as he's feeling better, that's all that matters. But does he care whether we're feeling better or not?"

Lu Zhengming was so agitated that he almost fainted from anger, clutching his forehead.

Officer Ma was taken aback.

I think I understand why Lu Yi did this.

He couldn't stay in this place for even a second longer.

He didn't want to see this family again.

"Mr. Lu, Madam, farewell!"

After the three police cars sped away, a deathly silence fell over the Lu family's huge villa.

Only Lu Han, looking smug, called out to Uncle Wang, asking him to take her to her appointment.

But no matter what, the others couldn't laugh.

Qin Fengying, in particular, teared up at the thought of her own son being all alone.

“Old Lu, the one who is suffering the most right now is Yi’er. Look at what you said to the child, even Officer Ma couldn’t stand it anymore… My Yi’er, why is your life so miserable!”

...

After reporting his work, Lao Ma glanced at the crumpled note and drove to the noodle shop where he had arranged to meet Lu Yi.

The noodle shop was rather deserted after lunchtime.

A tall, thin boy sat in the corner, staring blankly at the ground.

Hearing the door open, he instantly perked up.

With a hoarse voice, he called out into the room, "Boss, two bowls of plain noodles!"

The boss responded and went to the kitchen.

Lu Yi stood up to greet him.

"Officer Ma, please have a seat. Thank you for trusting me. Have you found the thug who cut the wires?"

Officer Ma sat down opposite him, placed the note that Lu Yi had slipped into his hand before leaving on the table, and tapped it lightly a few times.

“I can understand that you don’t care about money or the status of the Lu family, and you just want Old Lu to be laid to rest.”

He paused slightly, his eyes seeing through everything.

"You reported the case and provided clues, allowing us to investigate Tang Pin, and at the same time, you requested an autopsy on Lu Gengsheng, and then you severed ties with the Lu family... Now, however, you only care about those few thugs. Why?"

After hearing this, Lu Yi remained silent for a moment.

“I know you’re investigating a theft case, and I’ve seen a car that’s connected to the theft.”

"Have you seen him before? Where?"

"In the surveillance footage... there's a van behind Miss Lu's Porsche, the one on your office whiteboard... I'm sorry, I saw it by accident."

Officer Ma was taken aback, and at the same time felt a little confused, "So..."

"Two bowls of plain noodles!"

At this moment, the boss walked over, and the two temporarily stopped talking.

Officer Ma peeled a few cloves of garlic and tossed two into Lu Yi's bowl.

"You're quite observant, kid. What other insights do you have? Tell us."

Lu Yi stirred the noodles with his chopsticks. "You helped me, and I have to repay that favor... That van has appeared near the cemetery more than once. I suggest Officer Ma check the surveillance footage from a few days ago."

Ignoring Officer Ma's astonished expression, Lu Yi continued.

"If I find this car, I will let you know immediately."

"Oh!"

Officer Ma looked at him thoughtfully for a few seconds, then shook his head with a sympathetic expression.

“Lu Yi, you’ve seen the results today. Even if you bring the autopsy results to their door, what can you do to them? It’s like throwing an egg against a rock. You know who will suffer more.”

“I personally sympathize with you, but I still want to advise you to live your life well and not put your energy into this matter. Thugs are more terrifying than the Lu family, and they are not people like you should associate with.”

Lu Yi took a sip of the hot soup and raised his eyelids dismissively.

"What if the thugs were acting under orders, and weren't simply stealing?"

Officer Ma was startled, his hand holding the noodles froze in mid-air, and after a long while, he finally said, "Where's the evidence?"

"It will happen."

Lu Yi said earnestly.

It's not that it will happen, it's that it already exists.

But he couldn't very well tell Officer Ma directly that he had personally witnessed Lu Han getting into that car in his previous life, could he?
