Chapter 230 He really is a policeman
"Congratulations on activating the hidden quest!" The system's voice rang in Lu He's mind.
Huh? What hidden quest?
"Finding out how Wu Chunfang died will extend the side quest period by three months."
Extend the deadline? That makes sense. There's still no clue as to the cause of Han Xi's biological mother's death, and time is running out.
If they want to continue staying with Xia Lan in this world, they must extend the mission's time limit.
Lu He turned the hilt of his knife and pointed it at Zheng Ming: "Tell me about your client..."
Zheng Ming's eyes widened in disbelief: "No way, how can you be so unethical?"
"Hahaha, right, right, we should ask about Zhao Jiacheng. He must have run into Wu Chunfang when he caught up with us!" Zhang Dian watched the two turn against each other with schadenfreude.
"Shut up!" Lu He kicked him, leaving a shoe print on Zhang Dian's face.
Using a combination of carrot and stick, she turned to Zheng Ming and said kindly, "Your client is probably also involved in this matter. If you don't tell us, our cooperation will be canceled!"
She glanced at Zhang Dian: "I'll go straight to Zhang Xiuru, throw her ID card in front of my dad! Say she plotted something and killed my mom, and send her to jail!"
"No!" Zhang Dian blurted out. Zhang Xiuru was pregnant and couldn't go to jail.
Lu He sneered, knowing that Zhang Dian had taken the bait.
“Then why don’t you tell me,” Lu He said, the tip of his knife pointing at Zhang Dian’s chin, “how did my mother die?”
“…died of illness…” Zhang Dian paused for a moment, then managed to utter a sentence.
Lu He, of course, did not believe it and continued to coax: "Zheng Ming, think about it carefully. Besides, your client is a police officer. If she doesn't show up, you can't take this person away for interrogation."
These words made Zheng Ming relent a bit. He hesitated for a moment, then grabbed Zhang Dian, took out a bundle of rope, and tied him to the computer chair.
He then took out his phone, still looking somewhat hesitant and uneasy, before steeling himself and dialing the number...
Less than half an hour later, a young female police officer arrived with an arrest warrant.
Wow, is this the client? Lu He looked the policewoman up and down.
It was as if those cool and handsome female police officers in novels had stepped out of the story; both her appearance and temperament fulfilled all of Lu He's imagination of such glamorous characters from novels.
"You think your eyes are on other people?" Zheng Ming disliked Lu He's lecherous face and nudged her with his elbow: "You have a girlfriend!"
"Nonsense, I'm just admiring. Purely admiring all the time, you men really only have relationships on your minds, tsk tsk tsk!" Lu He clicked his tongue at him.
Ignoring her teasing, Zheng Ming pointed at Zhang Dian, who was bound hand and foot, and said to the policewoman, "Tongtong, I've caught the fugitive Zhang Dian. Take him in for questioning."
The policewoman's name is Shen Tong, and she is Zhao Jiacheng's daughter and Zheng Ming's client.
Shen Tong took her mother's surname because she had an older brother who took her father's surname. Her brother was also a policeman, but he died in the line of duty at the age of 25.
Zhao Jiacheng chased after Zhang Dian and never returned. Later, Wu Chunfang died, and Zhao Jiacheng disappeared. The matter was left unresolved until Shen Tong became a policeman and continued to investigate the events of that year, which led to the discovery of the "resurrected" Wu Chunfang.
"Hello, can I go with you? I can just listen from the side, I..." Lu He then used her status as a little sister to coax the policewoman.
We must hear the details of the matter, no matter what.
She was still thinking about how to persuade Shen Tong.
Unexpectedly, Shen Tong readily agreed: "Okay, you can come with me."
It went so smoothly that Lu He almost thought he had misheard.
"Is that motorcycle outside yours?" Shen Tong tilted his head and looked at the heavy motorcycle at the door, suddenly asking this question.
"Um, oh, yes." Lu He quickly recalled whether she had violated any traffic rules just now.
"Do you have a driver's license? At your age?" Shen Tong's lips curved into a beautiful smile, her smile very faint.
Uh... Oh no, I forgot about that, Han Xi isn't old enough to take a driving test!
"Give me the key!" Shen Tong held out his hand to her.
