On the first night of her marriage, she was hospitalized

Chapter 547 The Hidden Evidence Has Been Found
The old lady was on her last breath.

She only had one last wish.

Lu Chenxi hugged her and nodded firmly, "No, he's not a thief. Those bad people are just making things up. They're framing Yangyang."

"I knew it... I knew it, my Yangyang is the best..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the hand that had been tightly holding Lu Chenxi's fell limply to his side.

Lu Chenxi could no longer hold back, and large tears rolled down her cheeks.

"Grandma Guo..."

The person on guard at the door heard the commotion inside and turned to come in.

Seeing Lu Chenxi kneeling in a pool of blood, holding a slowly cooling corpse, they couldn't help but sigh.

"Comrade Lu..."

Did you call 120?

Lu Chenxi asked, looking bewildered.

"beated."

"Oh, okay, thank you."

She answered softly, and slowly put Grandma Guo down in her arms, letting her lie flat on the ground.

She took out her phone and dialed Liu Bin's number.

"Xiao Lu..."

"Captain Liu, where are your men? Last night you said it was an accident and let Guo Yang go, I understand. But what about today? Where were the people protecting the Guo family today? They just stood by and watched criminals break into their home and kill people, where were your men?"

"Xiao Lu, listen to me..."

"No need to say anything more, it won't save their lives."

Lu Chenxi interrupted Liu Bin coldly, "I'm the one who's wrong. If I hadn't brought Guo Yang to see you last night, maybe the two of them would still be fine. It's all my fault."

"Xiao Lu..."

Liu Bin wanted to say something more, but Lu Chenxi slammed down the phone.

Not long after, Zhao Gang arrived with his men.

Seeing Lu Chenxi sitting in the corridor, covered in blood, he told his other colleagues to go back to work and went over to her.

"Captain Zhao."

Looking into the distance, Lu Chenxi spoke softly, "Do you think I did something wrong?"

If she had pretended not to have noticed the powder Guo Yang had brought and hadn't taken him to the station to find Liu Bin, would things have been completely different?
"Xiao Lu."

Zhao Gang, who was in his late forties and early fifties and had spent his entire life in criminal investigation, knew that Lu Chenxi was having trouble getting over her inner conflict.

He sighed and knelt down in front of her. "This isn't your fault."

“Any citizen who discovers powder has an obligation to report it to the police. You were just fulfilling your civic duty.”

"As for Guo Yang and Grandma Guo's experience, that was a flaw in our internal management. We cannot negate your correct actions because of a mistake in internal management."

They take their time to identify and correct any oversights in their work.

Now I'm trying my best to improve and change what's wrong, little by little.

In the future, if anyone encounters a situation like theirs, they won't have to repeat their mistakes.

After Zhao Gang finished speaking, he reached out his hand to Lu Chenxi.

"Stand up, there's still work that needs you."

Lu Chenxi looked at the hand in front of her, and at Zhao Gang in the backlight. Slowly, she reached out her hand.

Zhao Gang grabbed the man and pulled him up.

It seems that at this moment, the old and new generations of people in the bureau have completed a kind of handover and relay.

Lu Chenxi went back inside.

She had composed herself and become professional again.

They searched the house together with their fellow detectives.

No suspicious places were found.

The funeral home staff came over and carried the old lady's body downstairs.

The criminal investigation team was also preparing to wrap up their work.

Lu Chenxi was the last one to walk.

She closed the windows of the old lady's and Guo Yang's rooms. This house would never see its owners again...

The moment Lu Chenxi closed the door, she caught a glimpse of a shimmering bottle at the foot of Guo Yang's bed. It was sunlight reflecting off the five-pointed star inside the bottle.

She thought of the five-pointed star that Guo Yang held in his palm until his death, a star he never let go of.

Lu Chenxi walked forward with a puzzled look.

Is there something wrong with these stars?
She picked up the bottle and poured the five-pointed stars inside onto the table.

Among this pile of five-pointed stars, she saw one that was a little different.

Lu Chenxi slowly picked up the star, her hands trembling slightly, and unfolded the five-pointed star.

A tiny memory card was stored inside the five-pointed star...

For a moment, Lu Chenxi couldn't hold back her tears again.

Grandma Guo once told her that Guo Yang liked five-pointed stars, and that the five-pointed stars he made were very beautiful.

She had told her grandson that if he filled the bottle with little stars, his mother would come back to see him.

Guo Yang didn't know he had been abandoned, nor did he know that the bottle beside his bed would never be filled.

Even if he folds a five-pointed star every day and puts it in the bottle, the old lady will secretly take some out when it's almost full...

The cycle repeated itself, and Guo Yang never doubted it.

He continued folding stars day after day, hoping his mother would come back to see him soon...

He may never have known that his wish would never come true.

Lu Chenxi looked at the memory card in her hand, her expression slightly serious.

Did Guo Yang fold this star yesterday?
How did he know to hide the memory card inside?

Lu Chenxi had many questions, but the specifics would have to wait until the contents of the memory card were read.

She packed her things and quickly left the Guo family home.

Lu Chenxi returned to the station with her four "cousins".

She went into a meeting, and her cousins ​​waited outside. As soon as she left the meeting room, they immediately followed her.

Seeing this, many people laughed and joked that this wasn't his cousin, but his bodyguard.

Lu Chenxi smiled but didn't say anything.

She and Zhao Gang gave the memory card to their colleagues in the technical department. With their help, everything on the memory card was read.

Looking at the contents of the memory card, Lu Chenxi understood why these people wanted to kill Guo Yang and Old Lady Guo.

The memory card clearly records many names, as well as company names.

Clearly, these are all the members of their huge, evil organization.

The organization's members own many seemingly ordinary companies; if someone were to investigate them, they would never suspect that they were involved with criminals.

But this very person and company are actually accomplices of a criminal gang...

"Captain Zhao..."

Lu Chenxi looked at Zhao Gang, waiting for his decision.

Zhao Gang naturally dared not make a decision lightly.

This matter is of great importance and cannot be decided by him, the captain of the city's criminal investigation team.

"I will report it to the bureau chief and then to the provincial authorities."

"it is good."

It's Zhao Gang's job to continue investigating the case.

Lu Chenxi led a group of people to take the bodies of Old Lady Guo and Guo Yang to the funeral home.

It will be stored here temporarily.

She asked a colleague to help her find information about Guo Yang's biological mother, and surprisingly, the person lived in the suburbs.

Lu Chenxi asked for the detailed address and drove to the outskirts of the city.

She saw Xu Lian, who was heavily pregnant, in a dilapidated courtyard.

She was standing with her hands on her hips, scolding her child.

Lu Chenxi reached out and knocked on the courtyard gate.

"Xu Lian?"

Xu Lian looked up and was also taken aback when she saw Lu Chenxi.

"who are you?"
