Overnight, the patrol room's attitude towards Ling Shu was completely changed.

When he was first brought in, the people here were not so rude to him.

Shen Renjie is an old man. Although he has errands, he leaves room for words both inside and outside of his words. He also arranges extra entertainment for him in the evening. Although money can make things work, the other party has to be accommodating.

But after Ling Shu slept and woke up, everything changed.

Not only was the interrogator changed, but Shen Renjie's attitude towards him was not as accommodating as before.

The person who escorted him out was none other than Shen Renjie.

"Old Shen, we are friends now. Tell me, where are we going?"

Shen Renjie kept a cold face and said nothing, completely different from the two people he and Ling Shu were holding each other's back last night.

Ling Shu didn't take it seriously. It was common for people to be warm and cold. He had already experienced it over the years.

What's more, if Shen Renjie met by chance, of course it was impossible to expect a deep friendship with the other person.

"You think, it's impossible for me to kill people. If I go back and clear my grievances, we will still be brothers. You know that my brother-in-law is in the city government, but you don't know that he is in charge of housing. Didn't you say that your parents still live in the old town?" In the house, don’t you want to change them?”

Shen Renjie originally didn't intend to pay attention to him, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but ridicule: "Your brother-in-law has been arrested, and you still help? How can you help? In prison? You can't protect yourself now, so don't fight to the death. Already."

Ling Shu spoke earnestly: "Old Shen, you know what the world is like these days. Corruption and bribery can be big or small. My brother-in-law is an honest man. Let alone there is no way he could do that. Even if he is framed, how can he be so young?" I just became the chief clerk of the city government, is there no one above me? Think about it, when he comes out, he will definitely try his best to clear my suspicion."

Shen Renjie didn't speak, but he didn't interrupt Ling Shu either.

Ling Shu knew that he was listening with his ears pricked up.

"Our Ling family also has a rich family. Although it is not as good as it used to be, there are still three inches of nails in the rotten ship. When the time comes, we will spend some money to bail me out. The big things will be reduced to trivial matters. Once the trivial matters are turned into small things, we will be a good man again. We are all in Shanghai. When the time comes, we will not see you when we look up. It is convenient for others and it is convenient for you, don’t you think?"

"This matter was ordered by the superiors, and it is not my final say."

Shen Renjie finally softened.

Ling Shu: "I know, it's not your fault, but where are we going, and how do we think about me?"

Shen Renjie thought for a while and sighed: "It is said that you are going to be transferred to the central arrest room. I don't know the details. Don't think about how to smooth it out. This matter is difficult to handle! If your family comes to visit you, just give it to them. He said he should quickly find a relationship and save his life before going back to the execution ground and not knowing how he died!"

He was not making false threats. Ling Shu was now suspected of murder. The person he killed was not an ordinary person, but a socialite from Shanghai. She also had a husband who was even more famous. Under such circumstances, once the public opinion fermented, Ling Shu would not be killed at all. There is no escape.

Although Shen Renjie didn't think of him as a murderer, in today's vast sea, are there still few sanctimonious criminals?

"Hey, Lao Shen, I have an idea."

At this time, the two of them just walked to the door, where the car was already parked waiting for them.

After hearing what he said, Shen Renjie's eyes widened in shock.

"Are you crazy?!"

…

Half an hour later, Shen Renjie felt that it was not Ling Shu who was crazy, but himself.

The two of them stood at the door of Ling Shu's house.

"You only have one hour."

Shen Renjie said nervously, "I can't help you for a long time. If you don't come back for more than an hour, they will become suspicious!"

Ling Shu comforted him: "Don't worry, you go in with me. When the time comes, you will take me away immediately. I will never cause trouble to you. My sister loves me so much, so she will definitely help me take care of things. You are indispensable."

If it weren't for this benefit, Shen Renjie would not have risked his life and promised Ling Shu to take him home for a look. The other two people escorting him would not have turned a blind eye.

Everyone tacitly understood that Ling Shu was in a hurry and went to relieve himself.

Ling Shu knew that there were risks in doing so.

Ever since he was accused of being the murderer, things have been spiraling out of control.

It was as if someone had put a net over his head and tied him tightly to prevent him from leaving.

What happened to my brother-in-law was even more bizarre.

He had to return home this time.

It was Aunt Hong who opened the door.

After Ling Yao got married, he took his younger brother and Aunt Hong, the old servant who had been with the Ling family, to live with him.

This old servant watched Lingyao and his brother grow up and was like family to them.

However, as soon as he met the opponent face to face, Ling Shu realized something was wrong.

Aunt Hong's expression was the same as usual.

That's why something is wrong.

If Ling Shu's brother-in-law had been arrested on suspicion of corruption, and Ling Shu himself had been implicated in a murder case, the house would have been in chaos by now, and the old servant would not have been able to open the door slowly as usual with a relaxed expression. I couldn't find even a hint of nervousness or anxiety.

The moment she saw him, surprise bloomed on the old servant's face.

"You're back! You haven't seen anyone all day and night. Where have you been? You didn't ask anyone to bring you a letter. The eldest lady is very worried. Oh, you have to be more careful later. There are still guests at home. Don’t make the eldest lady angry in front of outsiders!”

Ling Shu had a headache listening to Aunt Hong's ramble, especially after hearing her last sentence, he subconsciously asked: "Who is here?"

"Your old classmate, a gentleman named Yue."

Besides Yue Dingtang, who else could be the old classmate named Yue?

Alarm bells rang loudly in Ling Shu's heart.

He suddenly realized that he might have stepped into a trap, but it was too late to retreat.

"Little brother?"

Ling Yao walked out of it, her expression changing from surprise and worry to brows and determination in a matter of seconds.

"Where have you been running all day long? You didn't come back all night last night!"

Ling Shu laughed dryly: "I met an old friend, and I was catching up on old times. I forgot to find someone to explain to you, which made you worry, sister!"

He moved his eyes behind Lingyao and quickly changed the topic.

"Are there guests?"

"It's Dingtang, do you remember? You were very good friends when you were studying. He even came to our house for dinner. He came back from studying abroad not long ago. We haven't seen each other for many years. You must have a lot to talk about."

Ling Yao smiled and led him inside, then sniffed and frowned.

"Why do you smell so bad?"

Ling Shu: "Maybe I drank some wine last night and just spent the night at a friend's place."

Lingyao: "Why did I hear Cheng Si say that you went dancing with the dancer and stayed the night, huh?"

Her eyes moved to Shen Renjie next to Ling Shu.

"Who is this?"

Ling Shu's face didn't change: "This is the brother I met when I was on errands. He is the patrolman in the public concession. He is the old friend I just told you about. I went drinking with him last night."

Shen Renjie didn't know whether to smile or put on a serious face, and his expression was a little awkward for a moment.

"Welcome, you are a guest, come in and invite me." Lingyao looked confused, but luckily he didn't ask any more questions.

While they were talking, Ling Shu and Shen Renjie had already spotted Yue Dingtang sitting on the sofa in the living room reading a newspaper.

The latter was wearing a neat three-piece suit, his hair was not combed back, he had applied some hair oil, but not much, it was still refreshing, and he had a pair of thin-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose. In Ling Shu's opinion, he looked very handsome. Dressed like an animal, with a human face and an animal heart.

When Yue Dingtang heard the noise, he raised his head and smiled at him.

"Ling Shu is back?"

This smile is like seeing an old friend reunited after a long separation, especially kind and joyful, with a little bit of unnoticeable excitement in the plainness.

But to Ling Shu, the opponent was more like a hunter waiting for a rabbit, and he really bumped into a silly rabbit.

That is Ling Shu himself.

Shen Renjie was dumbfounded, realizing for the first time that his brain was insufficient.

So much so that he should have stepped forward to salute Yue Dingtang and say hello, but now he was stunned in place.

"Yue, Mr. Yue!"

Yue Dingtang's appearance did not look like that of someone who had come to the Ling family to interrogate an army for questioning. He looked completely different from the two people in the interrogation room.

Shen Renjie didn't know what attitude he should take for a moment.

"You're here too." Yue Dingtang nodded at him, with a trace of a wait-and-see joke on his face.

Shen Renjie had an idea: "I suddenly remembered that I have something urgent to do and I have to go back in a hurry, so I won't interrupt you to reminisce!"

Seeing that he was leaving, Lingyao hurriedly asked him to stay: "Why don't you sit down for a while?"

"No, no!" Shen Renjie forced a smile, turned to Ling Shu and said: I'll wait for you outside.

He was in a hurry and left without saying anything.

Lingyao couldn't stop him, so he had to say: "Brother, go see your friend off quickly!"

Ling Shu: "No need, he will find his own way."
