625 Frame-up, murder and arson
If one slept late at night, one would naturally not be able to wake up in the morning.
At nine O âclock, Gu Youli still did not wake up. She wanted to continue sleeping but was woken up by the phone call.
The call was from LAN Beibei. She seemed to be very anxious and her voice was especially loud.âwhy are you still sleeping? CEO Lu has been caught!â
âWhat did you just say?â Gu Youli was still in a daze and her brain could not react immediately.
LAN Beibei held his forehead, feeling helpless.
He started scolding Gu Youli. I was saying that CEO Lu has been arrested and sent to the police station. Why are you still sleeping this morning? CEO Lu is so good to you. How can you not be concerned at all? youâre actually in the mood to sleep. Youâre too heartless!
Gu Youli was dizzy from her shouting and her eardrums were about to burst.
stop, stop, stop, â she hurriedly said. what do you mean by that? what do you mean by going to jail? â
âHurry up and turn on the TV. Watch the local news channel!â LAN Beibei said anxiously.
Gu Youliâs face was solemn. She reached out for the remote control on the table and turned on the television that was rarely used in the bedroom.
When she switched to the local news channel, she just happened to see Lu Xun leaving the Lu residence in a sorry state while being surrounded by a group of people. Two police officers were on his left and right like guards, and his hands were shackled with silver light.
there were also reporters who kept taking photos of him, and the flashes kept going off.
In short, the entire scene was in a mess.
a dark cloud suddenly appeared in gu youliâs heart and it suppressed her entire nerves.
Whatâs going on, the police actually cuffed Lu Xun, what happened!
Then, she saw a string of large words at the bottom of the television screen: â the new chairman of the Lu Corporation is suspected of murder and arson?!
Kill? Set fire?
Gu Youliâs breathing started to become rapid.
She quickly asked LAN Beibei on the other end of the phone, â âwhatâs with this news? What happened?â
Iâm not too sure about the exact details. I only know that there was a fire in the Lu family this morning, and CEO Lu Xiao fainted outside the fire site. He was holding a knife in his hand, and it was covered in blood. A person was killed in the fire site, and he was burnt beyond recognition. The police said that CEO Lu Xiao was the murderer, and the fire could also have been set by CEO Lu Xiao. Theyâre keeping a close eye on CEO Lu now. Lawyer Qiu has been dealing with him for a long time, but heâs still unable to bail him out. We can only hastily meet!â
lan beibei explained the situation in a serious tone.
âCan I visit him now?â Gu Youliâs heart was beating like thunder.
LAN Beibei frowned and shook his head. I donât think so. But we can ask lawyer Qiu to try. Heâs still in the police station.
âI know, Iâll go find lawyer Qiu right now!â gu youli quickly got up from the bed.
Even though she tried to keep calm, she couldnât deny that she was very nervous.
Murder and arson were no small matter.
LAN Beibei bit her lip and asked before Gu Youli hung up, â everyone outside is saying that youâre the one who harmed CEO Lu!
âYou donât believe me!â Gu Youli clenched her fists and her eyes were as cold as ice.
LAN Beibei shook his head. I wouldnât have called you if I didnât trust you. I only hope that you can save CEO Lu.
âDonât worry, I wonât let anything happen to him!â She hung up the phone and quickly went to wash.
Just then, Yu feibai placed the breakfast he had bought on the table. When he saw her coming out, he chuckled and said, â âI was just about to wake you up and you came out!â
gu youli waved her hand, indicating that she was not eating. â something happened to my uncle. heâs in the police station. â
Yu feibaiâs hands stopped in their tracks. Iâll send you there!
The two of them arrived at the police station very quickly. LAN Beibei must have called lawyer Qiu first, so lawyer Qiu had been waiting for them.
lawyer qiuâs expression was unusually serious.
Gu Youliâs heart was beating so fast that it was about to start beating.
She didnât beat around the bush and went straight to the point, â âLawyer Qiu, I want to know the actual situation. Please donât try to pretend that everything is fine!â
Lawyer Qiu replied sternly, â I didnât intend to hide it from you. Second young master Luâs situation isnât looking good. He must have been framed!
gu youliâs face sank. â who did this? is it lu xun?â
Lawyer Qiu shook his head. I donât know about that. The police are only suspecting the possibility of being framed. All the evidence points to second young master Lu. After all, he was the only one at the scene. Of course, the police also said that it could not be ruled out as self-defense. They asked second young master Lu to explain the situation clearly!
âWhat did my uncle say?â Gu Youli frowned.
Lawyer Qiu replied, â second young master Lu said that he heard a noise outside and got up to go out and see what was going on. Who knew that the moment he stepped out of the room, he was knocked unconscious from the back door. It was the servants at home who woke him up. At that time, the Lu residence was on fire everywhere. He had a knife in his hand, but he couldnât remember when he had ever held a knife.
âCan they be bailed out?â Gu Youli asked again.
Before lawyer Qiu could reply, a voice came from the side. âHeâs the key person in the case, and the only suspect. He canât be bailed out yet.â
Gu Youli turned her head and saw that it was Xie Jian.
She quickly went forward and asked,âofficer Xie, will my uncle be alright? are you going to Sue him for murder?â Iâll go see him first?â
The series of questions made Xie Jian look at Yu feibai impatiently.
âYoung master Yu!â He greeted Yu feibai before replying, â itâs still under investigation, so we wonât be suing him for the time being. However, weâll have to see how the evidence goes. As for the visit ...
He paused and looked at Yu feibai. âThere should be no problem!â
With Xie Jianâs help, Gu Youli was able to meet Lu Xun as she wished.
However, the time was very short, probably only a few minutes, but it was enough for Gu Youli to understand the entire process of the matter from Lu Xun.
Gu Youli could tell from Lu Xunâs expression that he absolutely believed that he had nothing to do with the case and that he had been framed.
After seeing Lu Xun come out, Yu feibai asked Xie Jian, â âCan we take a look at the information you brought back?â
...
âBoss, since youâve already spoken, can I say no?â Xie Jian laughed.
He brought Yu feibai and Gu Youli to his office.
Then, she showed Yu feibai and Gu Youli the recordings and photos that she had taken at the scene.
The house had been razed to the ground after the fire was put out. It seemed impossible to get a fingerprint or other things as evidence.
itâs so chaotic. I donât seem to be able to see anything. Is there any other evidence? â gu youli asked worriedly.
