Chapter 543 Send the family away first
There was no joking in Lu Chenxi's voice.

Although Chengduo was worried about being double-punished by her parents when she got home, she also realized that her sister was really in trouble this time.

"it is good."

"Don't worry, sister, I'll help my aunt pack her things right away."

Lu Chenxi nodded. "I'm hanging up now. Call me when you get to the airport and buy your ticket."

"it is good."

Lu Chenxi hung up the phone and drove directly to the place Liu Bin had mentioned.

It's a stinking ditch.

Although Lu Chenxi was prepared, she still felt a wave of dizziness when she saw Guo Yang covered with a blue cloth.

"Xiao Lu..."

Liu Bin felt a little guilty.

They agreed last night that they would send someone to protect Guo Yang.

But Guo Yang was still murdered...

"Xiao Lu..."

Liu Bin couldn't explain it to Lu Chenxi.

Lu Chenxi stepped forward, walked to Guo Yang who was covered by a cloth, squatted down and pulled the cloth off.

His face was swollen; it had been beaten so badly that his features were distorted...

His hands were clenched into fists, his posture extremely stiff.

"He was in this position when he was pulled out of the water."

Liu Bin spoke up.

Lu Chenxi gave a soft "hmm".

"I see."

She stood up as she spoke and asked Liu Bin if he had notified the officers of the Criminal Investigation Brigade.

"They've been notified; they'll be there soon."

"it is good……"

Lu Chenxi agreed softly.

She stepped back and came to her car, leaning against it, feeling somewhat powerless.

The phone in her pocket rang. She took it out and glanced at it; it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello."

There wasn't much strength in her voice.

Aunt Hua's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Xiao Lu, are you sick? You were supposed to go on a blind date today, why didn't you go? The other person has been waiting for you all morning!"

"I'm sorry, Aunt Hua..."

Lu Chenxi mustered some strength and said, "I'm at the scene, so I probably can't go on the blind date."

"what……"

Aunt Hua's husband was also a staff member of the Municipal Bureau. When she heard Lu Chenxi's words, she understood that Lu Chenxi did not go on purpose, but was delayed by something.

"That's alright, it's fine. I'll explain it to him, and we'll reschedule..."

"No need, Aunt Hua."

Lu Chenxi declined, "I probably won't have time during this period..."

Aunt Hua frowned upon hearing this.

However, whether or not Lu Chenxi is willing to go on blind dates is up to her own decision, so she couldn't say much.

"Xiao Lu, you go ahead and get busy. I'll hang up now."

"Okay, thank you, Aunt Hua. Please apologize to the other party."

"It's alright, it's alright, you go ahead with your work."

Aunt Hua hung up the phone after she finished speaking.

Lu Chenxi opened the passenger door, sat down, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath.

The car window was knocked.

She opened her eyes and saw Feng Haochuan.

"Junior sister, you're here too?"

Feng Haochuan asked with a puzzled look, "Wasn't today scheduled to be your day off?"

"Um……"

Lu Chenxi forced a smile. "Captain Liu called and asked me to come over."

"Ok?"

Feng Haochuan was somewhat puzzled, his gaze falling on the body covered by a cloth.

He deduced from Lu Chenxi's expression that this was someone she knew.

"Know him?"

"It's Guo Yang."

"what……"

Feng Haochuan was also dumbfounded.

"What happened to him?"

Who would want to hurt a child with intellectual disabilities?
Lu Chenxi shook her head.

She couldn't say.

Even if it's her senior brother, she can't tell him.

Xiang Tao spoke a few words with Liu Bin, then came over and noticed that Lu Chenxi's expression wasn't quite right. He told her to go back and rest, saying that he and Feng Haochuan were fine here.

"it is good."

Lu Chenxi snapped out of her daze, nodded to her master, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Master and Senior Brother. I'll head back now."

"Be careful on the road."

"it is good."

Lu Chenxi got out of the passenger seat and was about to drive away when Liu Bin asked two colleagues to follow her.

She did not accept it.

"fine."

She smiled and said, "Captain Liu, don't worry about me. Let the senior brothers stay and help solve the case so that we can catch the murderer as soon as possible and let Guo Yang rest in peace."

She knew that Liu Bin meant by sending people to follow her.

Those people made a move against Guo Yang, and they might have also found out that Guo Yang had contact with her yesterday.

If they were any more ruthless, they might even silence her.

It's laughable, really. Guo Yang was clearly mentally challenged and couldn't possibly say anything harmful to them, yet they still cruelly killed him.

A ruthless glint flashed in Lu Chenxi's eyes.

She opened the trunk and took out a folded baton.

She also put the military dagger her father had given her for self-defense into her ankle boots and covered it with her jeans.

Despite her seemingly harmless appearance, Lu Chenxi comes from a military family and grew up in a military compound, making her ruthless and decisive.

She drove away, heading to the airport.

She contacted Chengduo on the way and only felt relieved after confirming that they had arrived at the airport safely.

"I'm on my way, please be careful."

"Okay, sis, don't worry."

Cheng Duo is young and still a student, lacking social experience, but that doesn't mean she's stupid.

After her sister told her to leave with her great-aunt, she knew things were definitely not simple.

She was on her guard the whole way!
To get from my great-aunt's house to the airport, I called my third uncle and asked him to arrange for someone to pick them up and take them to the airport.

Although she couldn't help her sister at work, she would never let herself become a burden to her sister.

Lu Chenxi was very relieved.

Upon arriving at the airport, we parked the car outside and quickly went inside to find Cheng Duo and the others.

When He Lihua saw her granddaughter whom she hadn't seen all night, she vaguely felt that something was wrong with her, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what it was.

My granddaughter looks a bit more haggard than before.

"Didn't you sleep at all last night?"

He Lihua felt heartbroken, thinking that her granddaughter had been busy with work and hadn't slept all night.

Lu Chenxi did indeed go to sleep close to dawn, but not because she was busy with work.

"Ah."

She gently hummed in agreement, "Grandma, don't worry about me. Go back and celebrate the New Year with Mom and Dad."

"What about you? Aren't you going back?"

"I'll go back once I finish my current work and have a holiday."

“Xi Xi…”

Before He Lihua could say anything more, the announcement urging passengers to board the plane came over the loudspeaker.

Have you arranged for someone to pick you up from the airport?

Lu Chenxi asked Cheng Duo.

Cheng Duo shook her head.

"How about this, I'll call my dad and have him arrange for Xiao Liu to pick you up."

"it is good."

"I'll see you off at the airport."

"it is good."

Lu Chenxi saw her younger sister and grandmother off at the airport.

Before leaving, she hung a pendant around Chengduo's neck.

He reached out and hugged Chengduo, whispering in her ear, "You must protect it with your life."

Cheng Duo's expression froze for a moment, then she smiled.

"Goodbye sister."

"Goodbye."

Lu Chenxi waved to them and watched the plane take off before leaving the airport.

He walked towards his car, which was parked outside.

After getting in the car, we headed straight back to the station.

She even made a phone call to her dad on the way.

Lu Changzheng, who hadn't seen his daughter for half a year, was overjoyed to receive a call from his beloved daughter, asking when she would bring her grandmother back for the Chinese New Year.

"Dad, Grandma went back today. Duoduo brought it back with her."

"Um, what about you? When do you get your vacation?"

"I don't have time for now."

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly noticed out of the corner of her eye that a truck was rushing towards her from behind.
