Zhao Yu was fine, but whenever he saw cameras and flashes, he would start sweating.
This moment was no exception. Seeing so many cameras pointed at him, and the flashes were so bright that he couldn't even open his eyes, he wanted to shout and chase these annoying people away.
However, before he could react, a family of three walked out from the crowd. It was Lan Shuping, Gao Ting, and their daughter, Niuniu.
"Police Officer Zhao," Lan Shuping said excitedly, "We are here to thank you!"
"Yeah!" Gao Ting said excitedly, "Thank you for saving our daughter, and thank you for finding out the truth of the apartment murder case. Thank you for clearing Lan's name! You don't know what our family has been through these past few days … "
At this point, Gao Ting's tears fell uncontrollably.
"Uncle, uncle!" At this time, the little girl, Niuniu, walked out of the crowd. She held a bouquet of flowers in her hands and handed it to Zhao Yu. "Uncle, thank you for saving me!"
"Hmm …"
This was the first time in Zhao Yu's two lives that a girl had given him flowers, and it was a cute nine-year-old girl at that.
"Thank … Thank you …" Zhao Yu took the flowers with trepidation and stammered his thanks.
* Hua … *
In the office, the applause was thunderous, and the camera flashed again.
At that moment, Zhao Yu seemed to understand something. Lan Shuping was the leader of the TV station, after all. Now that he had cleared his name, he wanted to make use of the media to publicize it. Secondly, he wanted to use this opportunity to praise the Key Case Investigation Unit of the Rùng Branch, as well as his great contribution, Detective Zhao!
Fine!
It seemed that this time, he was going to be famous again!
"Police Officer Zhao," Lan Shuping held Zhao Yu's hand excitedly. "You don't know, when Niuniu was kidnapped, and when I was forced to turn myself in, I was so desperate! Thank you for finding out the truth and clearing my name! It was you who saved me and my family! "
Then, the whole family bowed to Zhao Yu to thank him. Zhao Yu quickly cupped his fists and bowed. The flashes flashed again.
"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing that I need to tell you …" Lan Shuping held Gao Ting's hand and said, "Teacher Feng Lin is my mentor and elder. She did that because she loved her son. Moreover, she didn't really want to hurt our Niu Niu, so … I've said it before, as long as the truth behind Liu Jiao's murder is found out, we will withdraw all charges against her. Now, we have withdrawn it! "
As she spoke, Gao Ting also nodded sincerely.
Suddenly, there was another round of applause in the office.
Zhao Yu understood that, regardless of whether Lan Shuping was putting on a show or being sincere, to Feng Lin's family, who were in dire straits, it was considered a timely help.
If they dropped the charges, then Feng Lin and her nanny Meifang would be spared from jail. Feng Lin would also be able to reunite with Feng Kuo during her last days.
"So many years … Sigh!" Lan Shuping had tears in his eyes and said emotionally, "Feng Kuo and I were brothers who grew up together. We went to school together, ate together, and lived together. But because of Liu Jiao's case, I hated him for ten years! Now, the truth is out. Both of us are innocent, so we are still brothers! I will try my best to help Feng Kuo … "
No one knew if it was to stir up emotions, or if it was deliberately arranged. A staff member of the TV station used his laptop to play the video of Lan Shuping, Feng Kuo, and Liu Jiao when they were in the drama.
Looking at the nostalgic scenes, Lan Shuping burst into tears on the spot.
In the next hour, besides accepting the media's interview, Zhao Yu also dealt with a lot of matters related to Feng Kuo's case.
Firstly, as Bureau Chief Hong had given special instructions, the judicial procedure to rehabilitate Feng Kuo had already started. In no time, he would be acquitted and released.
Plus, as Feng Kuo was wrongly accused, no matter if it was him or Meifang's husband, Zhang Haibo, who had helped him escape from jail, their charges would be reduced.
On the other hand, as Xiao Zhen had already pleaded guilty and admitted that he was the real murderer of Liu Jiao. Hence, Zhao Yu had to deal with the corresponding follow-up matters.
As for Xiao Guofeng and Kong Weisen, who had given false statements, they were still locked up in the detention center. They would be punished accordingly in the future.
Hence, Feng Kuo's family of four were still locked up in jail.
At that moment, Zhao Yu had yet to see Feng Lin. He didn't know how Feng Lin would react to the case, but he reckoned that it wouldn't be good!
Because, although her eldest son, Feng Kuo, could finally be released from jail, the real murderer had been changed to her second son! How could Feng Lin hope to see such an outcome?
Although Xiao Zhen wasn't Feng Lin's biological son, Feng Lin had always treated her youngest son as her own. Usually, Xiao Zhen was very filial and treated Feng Lin like his own mother.
Sigh!
It's really God's will that makes fools of people!
Suddenly, Zhao Yu thought of the sentence in the yellow notebook, "Behind every crime case, there is a liter of tears!"
Yeah! Everything in the world was complicated. Even if it was a normal crime case, it couldn't be simply separated by black and white.
As a law enforcer, sometimes, it wasn't as simple as simply catching a criminal to close the case.
Take the murder case that had happened ten years ago as an example. Zhao Yu always felt that there was an imperfection in the case. That was, Ai Lili, who only bore the moral responsibility, yet escaped from the punishment of the law!
Just as Zhao Yu was thinking about this, his phone suddenly rang.
He opened it and saw that it was his disciple, Su Jinmei, who was calling. "Sifu, I am already at the entrance of your branch office! It's almost time. Should we go and see the insider that you mentioned? "
Zhao Yu stuck the phone to his ear and walked out of the window. Outside the window, there was a misty rain, and there was no sign that the sky would clear up.
Seeing that Zhao Yu didn't reply, Su Jinmei asked again, "Sifu, are you okay?"
"Mm … I'm okay, I'm okay!" Zhao Yu then reacted and said quickly, "Alright, wait for me at the entrance. I'll go downstairs now!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Yu hurriedly gave some instructions to his colleagues, then grabbed an umbrella and walked out of the building.
Just as he went downstairs to get his car and meet up with Su Jinmei, Zhao Yu realized something. It turned out that everything had nothing to do with money!
Even though he had a net worth of fifty million, which meant that he could enjoy his life, and that he didn't have to do such troublesome and unrewarding things anymore.
But, the obsession to pursue the truth had already taken root in his heart!
Even though he was daydreaming about the happy and happy life of a nouveau riche, he never had the thought of not being a detective and not investigating cases anymore!
So, when Su Jinmei gave him a call, he couldn't help but choose to continue!
Ai Lili!
As he held the umbrella and walked into the rain, Ai Lili's name flashed in his head again.
Although, in the apartment murder case, you can be free from any responsibility. But, in the Chen sisters' Falling Off the Building Case, do you still want to get away with it?
Humph!
Just you wait, I, Detective Zhao, am coming!
