After Lu Qing took a shower and came out, he started to organize his things. Halfway through, he suddenly found that the pendant in his bag was no longer there.
She quickly poured out all the contents of her bag and searched everywhere, but found nothing.
Lu Qingqing fell down on the sofa, her eyes a little dull.
He must have fallen during the struggle when he was attacked tonight.
She has been wearing that pen cap since she was in high school, and has never lost it for so many years.
After being in a daze for a while, she gritted her teeth, stood up suddenly, found the pepper water from the drawer, and the small weapons she had purchased before to protect herself in dangerous moments, and ran out holding her cell phone.
Lu Qingqing ran all the way to the door of the newspaper office and used the flashlight of her mobile phone to look for the place where she had just stayed, but the ground was empty and there was nothing she had dropped.
After returning home again, Lu Qingqing was full of frustration.
This thing has given her the courage to fear the future for many years.
It is her light and faith.
I never expected that it would be lost in a hurry.
It seems that I can't find it anywhere.
Lying on the bed, she tossed and turned, unable to sleep. As soon as she closed her eyes, those penetrating eyes made her despair and suffocate.
Lu Qingqing sat up suddenly again, and when she turned on her phone, she accidentally touched the call history.
Seeing the latest string of unfamiliar numbers, Lu Qingqing hesitantly clicked copy, and then searched on WeChat.
Found it.
Lu Qingqing looked at it for a long time without clicking the words "add to address book".
Some people seemed far away from her, but suddenly one day, they were so close and felt so unreal.
Lu Qingqing put down her phone, fell back on the bed, and closed her eyes.
When I arrived at the newspaper office the next day, my colleague said, "Qingqing, did you stay up late at work again yesterday? You have dark circles under your eyes. You must have worked too hard."
Lu Qingqing twitched the corners of her lips and smiled dryly: "No, I didn't get a good rest last night."
At this time, someone else said: "Qingqing, the editor-in-chief asked you to go to his office."
Lu Qingqing responded, walked to the office and knocked on the door.
After she entered, the editor said: "Qingqing, are you still investigating the New Coast Project recently?"
Lu Qingqing nodded: "I think this cannot end with Zhou Junnian's death. There is still a lot we can discover. I..."
"This report was the first one we rushed to the front, and it was also the exclusive one you got. But now, there is nothing left to write about.
The rest of the news media have already focused on the Zhou family and Zhou Cishen, and no one will care about what Zhou Junnian did anymore."
Lu Qingqing frowned: "But..."
The editor-in-chief pushed the document in front of her to her: "Here, there is an exclusive report on domestic violence deaths. The person involved is in the building next to us. You can follow the report."
Lu Qingqing lowered his head and said nothing.
"Qingqing, the person involved is a famous painter with extraordinary influence. Many people want to get this exclusive. If you hadn't brought such big news to our newspaper during this period, it wouldn't have been your turn.
superior.
If you follow this carefully, it’s guaranteed to be another breaking news.”
"But I don't want to do this. I still want to do the New Coast Project."
The editor-in-chief said solemnly: "What happened to the New Coast Project? That is already a thing of the past. What I am asking you to report now is a social topic that has attracted widespread social attention. This painter usually behaves harmoniously in front of the public.
Gentle and gentlemanly.”
"I received news this morning. What he told the police was that his wife died accidentally and had nothing to do with him. Isn't this worthy of your investigation?
Don’t you want to seek justice and truth for the dead?”
After Lu Qingqing heard this, his expression relaxed, and he slowly stretched out his hand to get the information in front of him.
The editor-in-chief said: "That's right, people should look forward..."
Lu Qingqing looked over and said: "Editor-in-Chief, I can follow this news, but I still want to continue investigating the New Coast Project at the same time. I promise that there will be no delay or impact on this report."
Seeing that she was still insisting, the editor-in-chief waved his hand and said, "Whatever you want, you said it yourself, don't delay your work."
A smile appeared on Lu Qingqing's face: "Thank you, editor-in-chief."
After she left, the editor suddenly remembered something: "By the way, the lawyer hired for this case is..."
Lu Qingqing's figure was no longer visible, so he took back the rest of his words.
The reason why Lu Qingqing was asked to pursue this case was that, in addition to not wanting her to continue to be involved in the New Coast project, the other reason was that the lawyer hired by the other party was well-known in the industry and was difficult to handle. Only Lu Qingqing was more frustrated.
The more courageous and aggressive the character, the more you can investigate and figure out the reason.
Lu Qingqing returned to her seat, moved the information on the New Coast Project to the side, and opened the one the editor had just given her.
This painter's name is Zuo Yuan. He is in his early forties. He had been unsuccessful when he was young, and his paintings were looked down upon by others. Until he met his wife, who was like his muse of inspiration, and his potential was instantly stimulated.
His wife's painting made him famous overnight.
In recent years, there has been a steady output of works, and many paintings have been bought at high prices.
In addition to his paintings, his love affair with his wife also once became a topic of concern.
Every time he attends an event, Zuo Yuan takes care of his wife in every possible way, showing love inside and out. It can be seen that the two of them are very sweet and happy.
Over time, Zuo Yuan emerged as a good husband.
Now his wife died suddenly, and Zuo Yuan was accused of domestic violence that caused her death.
Such an image contrast is indeed incredible.
Lu Qingqing read Zuo Yuan's past experiences and the photos he took with his wife on some occasions, and felt that in some of the photos, his wife's expression was not right, and it was indeed worth investigating.
Her intuition told her that it wasn't just domestic violence causing death.
Lu Qingqing found Zuo Yuan's phone number and dialed: "Hello, Mr. Zuo, I'm Lu Qingqing, a reporter from Nancheng Daily. If you have time this afternoon, can I give you an interview?"
On the other end of the phone, Zuo Yuan's voice was filled with sadness, but he agreed readily: "Yes."
After Lu Qingqing decided on the time to meet with him, she put away her mobile phone.
In such a short period of time, he was ready to face reporters. It seemed that this person was more difficult to deal with than she imagined.
Lu Qingqing turned on the computer and continued to search for information about Zuo Yuan and his wife, trying to get more clues than what was in the data.
Nowadays, there are too many people who are sanctimonious and gentle on the surface. If you take off that human skin, you will be a complete devil.
