Chapter 485: Lu Ning’s Brother?!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The surveillance cameras showed that Lu Ning and Li Nian had indeed entered the alley one after another. This at least proved that Qian Shu and Li Lang had lied about not having seen Lu Ning.
However, the situation inside was unknown. This was because the surrounding area was an old neighborhood, and it was already not easy to find a surveillance camera that overlooked the road. Almost no one was managing this area, so it was even more impossible for there to be surveillance cameras inside civilian houses in the alleys.
Other than the three of them, only one person could provide a glimmer of hope in this matter; when the police were checking the surveillance cameras, they saw another man stop his car and enter the alley. It looked like he had chased after the two girls.
First, they retrieved the video and showed it to the two people making the accusations—both of them said they did not know him. Then, they showed it to Li Nian right after that.
As the surveillance footage was very blurry, they could not match his face, so they could only ask.
Li Nian did not know if she should say this.
Lu Ning had asked her to tell the truth, so she was silent for a long time during the interrogation. She had been struggling in her heart, not knowing if she should tell the truth or take responsibility for it.
However, in the end, it was Lu Nings words that made her tell the truth.
However, she regretted it the moment she said it.
Lu Ning had no family background to protect her now. She did not know how Lu Ning could deal with all of this.
Since she had already said it, she could only continue. The only thing she could do was to trust Lu Ning.
However, during the interrogation, neither of them said anything about Lu Qing. Now that the police had found out, Li Nian could only say it.
“l know him. He’s Lu Nings brother.”
“Her brother?”
Li Nian nodded.
Hence, the police went to ask Lu Ning.
“Is this your brother?”
Lu Ning nodded calmly.
“Was he in on it?”
“No, he saw me on his way home and wanted to see what I was doing, so he followed me in.’
“Did he hit anyone?”
“Give him a call, and tell him to come here.’
Lu Ning looked up. “I’ll give you his number, you can call him. We don’t have a good relationship.”
The policeman raised his eyebrows and looked at her. “He followed you in to confirm your safety even though you’re not on good terms?”
Lu Ning did not say anything. She just gave the police his number.
When the police called, Lu Qing might have been busy. He did not pick up the phone the first time and only picked it up the second time.
It sounded like someone was still talking on the other end. They could not tell what they were discussing. “Hello, is this Mr. Lu Qing?”
“This is him.”
“It’s like this. There’s been a malicious assault case here, and we require you to come down for our investigation. Your sister, Lu Ning, is already with us, but there are some issues with the confessions of both parties. I need you to describe what happened at that time. Is it convenient for you now?”
Lu Qing immediately stood up. “I’ll be right there. Is my sister alright?”
Hearing Lu Qings nervous tone, the police were once again puzzled about what she meant by don’t have a good relationship. “She’s fine. Please come as quickly as possible.”
“Alright, thanks.”
After hanging up, Lu Qing pressed for the elevator and made a call. A few people chased after him. “CEO Lu, this proposal is very urgent…”
Lu Qing turned around. ‘Delay it if you can. If you can’t, just reject it.” With that, he turned around and entered the elevator.
The few people in charge of the case were rooted to the ground in a daze.
“But this contract is worth tens of millions…
The people in charge looked at each other. “What’s going on? CEO Lu is in such a hurry. Who was on the line?”
“l don’t know.. Is it CEO Lu’s sister? I remember he had left in a hurry after answering his sister’s call in the past…”
