Lin Xiaoya's shop successfully reopened after being closed for one day.
Fan Huijun acted as the "new boss" to notify the store manager and employees.
To dispel their doubts, Fan Huijun made a few trivial requests.
Of course, Lu Yi had taught her all of this beforehand.
She sent Lu Yi several voice messages but received no response. She also made several phone calls, but he didn't answer.
After much deliberation, Fan Huijun called Lin Xiaoya.
At the time, Lin Xiaoya was wearing her shop assistant uniform and was extremely busy. She only told her that Lu Yi had not been to the store.
Fan Huijun was restless all day...
Fan Huijun didn't know that Lu Gengsheng was in trouble until Liang Shiyue appeared at the office door.
"Dr. Fan, is there a possibility that Lu Yi might do something drastic?"
Sitting in the car, Liang Shiyue recounted what had happened to her.
Fan Huijun remained silent and searched every place she could think of.
Unfortunately, no trace of Lu Yi could be found.
As it was getting dark, she first took Liang Shiyue home.
Then I drove myself to the cemetery.
Seeing that the gate was closed, Fan Huijun panicked.
Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly saw Lao Liu returning from outside.
He quickly turned off the engine, got out of the car, and explained his purpose to him.
Old Liu, with a hunched back and a sorrowful expression, pointed to the dark, somber cemetery.
"The child came back and went up the mountain without saying a word."
"Dr. Fan, you've come at the right time. That room is uninhabitable for the time being. Do you know if you can find him a place to stay for the night?"
He had wanted Lu Yi to squeeze in with his family of three, but when he thought about the stupid things his wife had done, he was too ashamed to say it.
As soon as he returned from the hospital, he resigned from his job at the cemetery.
After understanding the whole story, the leader sighed deeply, not only comforting him but also trying his best to persuade him to stay.
But Lao Liu felt that his conscience wouldn't allow it.
Even after returning the money to Lu Baozhi, he still felt guilty all the time.
His trip was to buy woven bags.
After Lao Lu's funeral, he will take his wife and children back to his hometown.
"Thank you, Uncle Liu! I'll take good care of him... Take care of yourself too!"
Looking at the locked little house, Fan Huijun couldn't stop the tears from streaming down her face.
How could that cheerful old man have disappeared in the blink of an eye?
...
Lu Yi sat in front of his adoptive parents' graves, his mind reeling.
It seemed like I talked to them a lot, but it also seemed like I didn't say anything at all.
Shedding all the hard shell he had put on, grief welled up inside him, and he realized that his uncle had truly left him.
"Mom and Dad, I will definitely avenge this, no matter the cost..."
Count me in!
Fan Huijun sat down beside him and put her arm around his shoulders, which looked thinner than usual.
Why are you here?
"Why didn't you tell me immediately when such a serious incident happened?"
"I didn't have time."
Fan Huijun's eyes were full of heartache, but she still couldn't help but speak.
“Yi’er, I heard the gist of it from Xiao Yue… As for the autopsy results, they may not be what you want, so you should be prepared.”
Lu Yi snorted expressionlessly.
"Do the autopsy results still matter?"
Fan Huijun stared at him in surprise, "Then why did you go to all this trouble?"
The passing of a loved one is like the night falling, the darkness descending, and even in summer, a chilling coldness pervades the heart.
Lu Yi reached out and stroked the portraits of his adoptive parents, his face filled with pain like the heavy clouds on the horizon.
“If it weren’t for me, my uncle wouldn’t have had to suffer like this.”
“In the final moments of his life, I wasn’t even by his side. Dr. Fan, tell me, am I a bastard?”
Fan Huijun knew he still had something to say, so she just patted him on the back.
Lu Yi clenched his four fingers. "So, whoever harmed him, I will never let them get away with it."
"The police report and the autopsy were all just a distraction for the Lu family, to lower the culprit's guard. In reality..."
Fan Huijun paused as she reached into her bag. "What are you actually going to do?"
"I need to find more crucial evidence..."
Before Lu Yi could finish speaking, his phone rang suddenly, startling Fan Huijun.
"Are you sure it's that car...? Okay, send me your location anytime, and I'll head over right now."
Fan Huijun asked suspiciously, "Whose call was that?"
Lu Yi's voice was low: "A friend. Dr. Fan, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you!"
Fan Huijun still didn't understand what Lu Yi was trying to do.
I'm worried that he might act impulsively and disregard his own safety.
I'm also worried that he might become discouraged because of this.
Seeing his thin lips pressed tightly together and his eyes flicker slightly, Fan Huijun felt a little relieved. "Where are you going? I'll go with you!"
Lu Yi put his phone back in his pocket and nodded.
"Thank you! I'll explain in more detail once you get in the car."
After starting the car, Lu Yi kept an eye on the location sent by his friend while explaining to Fan Huijun.
"The thugs who cut the surveillance cable at the entrance of the cemetery were a gang of habitual thieves. The police explained that they did it to steal nearby cables."
"What a coincidence?"
Fan Huijun interjected.
“Yes, but I know that’s not the truth. So I asked one of my uncle’s close friends to help me find the gang’s car. Now the car is just ahead, about two kilometers away from us.”
"If we get on the elevated road ahead, we can enter the city. What are they going to do in the city?"
Fan Huijun has been here many times and is quite familiar with this road.
Lu Yi gritted his teeth, "Let's claim credit and ask for rewards!"
They helped their master create a false impression, leading Lu Yi to investigate all the way to the Lu family.
