32: Chapter 32 The Collapse of Yu Xin_1 32: Chapter 32 The Collapse of Yu Xin_1 Censorate Department.

Lu Chuan was locked in the detention room.

Yu Xin’s face was full of smugness, “This place is just a holding area, and I’ll quickly find the key evidence of you killing Lin Hu.

At that point, you will be sent to the prison and locked up for life!”

Lu Chuan’s expression remained calm, knowing that without evidence, a witness’s testimony alone couldn’t convict him.

He was simply caught as a suspect for now.

Gu Hongzhuang had mentioned that her people had cleared all possible evidence the day they rescued him.

Therefore, Lu Chuan wasn’t worried about Yu Xin finding any key evidence.

At most, he would be detained for a few days before being released.

What worried him more was the condition of Yu Qingfeng.

After all, he had promised to treat Yu Qingfeng one more time, and if Yu Qingfeng died from missing this treatment, he would definitely feel guilty.

“Everything I said earlier is true.

There really is a patient waiting for my treatment.

If he doesn’t receive my medical attention by five o’clock today, he is likely to die.

Even if you don’t consider it for his sake, you should at least think of his wife and daughter.

If you don’t believe me, you can bring him here for treatment,” Lu Chuan earnestly said.

Yu Xin looked at Lu Chuan with disgust and said, “Don’t use that kind of excuse to fool me, I will never believe you.

Who knows if you just want to call your accomplices over!”

“And do you have the face to talk about considering someone else’s wife and daughter?

When you killed Lin Hu, how come you didn’t consider his wife and daughter?”

“Just stay put here!”

Having said that, she turned around and left.

Lu Chuan clenched his fists.

For some reason, every time he heard this woman’s words, he felt an urge to take action.

How could someone be so oblivious to right and wrong!

Qin Lan and Liu Kun appeared with schadenfreude written all over their faces.

“Wow, wow, wow, let me see who got locked up?

Hey, isn’t that my old bootlicker Lu Chuan!” Qin Lan mocked with an exaggerated tone.

Liu Kun burst into laughter, “You sorry thing, haven’t you been very arrogant lately?

If you’re so brave, come out and jump around in front of us!”

Lu Chuan looked at the two speechlessly, walked over, and lay down on the wooden bed in the detention room, without responding.

Although his life hadn’t changed much compared to the past, in essence, he had far surpassed people like Qin Lan and Liu Kun.

Once their levels of understanding were no longer on the same plane, it was hard for him to get angry over such idiots as Qin Lan and Liu Kun.

Seeing that Lu Chuan had no reaction, Qin Lan and Liu Kun felt like they were punching cotton, their smug expressions couldn’t be maintained.

They deliberately said many more mocking and demeaning things, but when they found that they couldn’t provoke any emotional reaction from Lu Chuan, not even getting him to glance at them, they could only leave cursing and swearing under their breath.

Lu Chuan glanced at the clock on the wall and realized it was almost four o’clock, so he sighed helplessly.

…

East City Park.

Yu Qingfeng, accompanied by the driver Zhang, arrived at the grove.

He looked around and, noticing that Lu Chuan was nowhere to be found, he felt a bit puzzled, “Could he have gone to the restroom?”

Out of politeness, he chose to wait where he was.

But after ten minutes had passed and Lu Chuan still hadn’t shown up, Yu Qingfeng began to feel that something was amiss.

He took out his phone and dialed Lu Chuan’s number.

“The number you have dialed is switched off…”

Yu Qingfeng’s brow immediately furrowed, “Switched off?

What does Miracle Doctor Lu mean by this?”

Seeing Yu Qingfeng’s expression change, Zhang hurriedly asked, “Supreme Master, hasn’t the divine doctor you mentioned arrived yet?

Has something gone wrong?”

Yu Qingfeng said, “His phone is switched off.”

Zhang’s expression changed, “Didn’t you say that if you don’t receive treatment from this Miracle Doctor Lu by five o’clock, you would…”

Yu Qingfeng sighed, “Perhaps it’s just fate.”

As he turned to leave, the disorderly footprints on the ground caught his attention.

“These footprints are fresh.

Could it be that Miracle Doctor Lu had an accident, which is why his phone is switched off?”

With this thought, Yu Qingfeng instructed Zhang, “Go check who has been here in the last hour, and be quick about it!”

“Yes sir!” Zhang immediately went to investigate.

Soon after, Zhang returned and spoke to Yu Qingfeng, “Supreme Master, it has been confirmed that the one who came here a short while ago…

was one of our own people!”

Yu Qingfeng was taken aback, “Who?”

Zhang hesitantly said, “It was…

the young miss.”

Yu Qingfeng’s frown deepened, “What does she want with Miracle Doctor Lu?”

Zhang said, “I asked around, and they say the miss suspects that Miracle Doctor Lu is the murderer in the case she’s investigating.

She even found an eyewitness and so had Miracle Doctor Lu arrested.”

Yu Qingfeng felt a sharp pain in his chest and said through clenched teeth, “Miracle Doctor Lu has a kind heart and always steps in to help the righteous cause.

How could he possibly be a murderer?

Even if it were true, there certainly must be more to the story.”

Zhang asked, “Chief, what do we do now?”

Yu Qingfeng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, “Return to the Censorate Department, and send me all the files related to the case Yu Xin is investigating.”

…

Censorate Department.

Yu Xin sat in her office, a self-satisfied smile on her face, holding a cup of coffee and savoring it with delight.

“Father always said I was spoiled and would never achieve anything significant.

Now I’ve proved myself with my strength, cracking such a big case not long after I started the job.

He will certainly have to praise me properly this time.”

Her gaze fell on the photo of Lu Chuan on the whiteboard and she sneered, “I am truly an angel of justice in this world.

I won’t let any evil demons like him get away in the future!”

At that moment, someone opened the door to her office.

Yu Qingfeng entered, supported by Zhang.

As five o’clock drew nearer, his face turned ashen and his breathing grew weaker.

Seeing her father, Yu Xin immediately stood up and walked over with pride, her head held high, “Dad, I just cracked a case where a martial artist was killed.

The murderer has been arrested, and we’re just one piece of evidence away from convicting him.

Isn’t your daughter amazing?”

Yu Qingfeng’s face darkened.

He stared at Yu Xin for a few seconds before suddenly raising his hand and slapping her across the face.

Yu Xin looked at Yu Qingfeng incredulously and shouted, “Why did you hit me?”

Yu Qingfeng threw all the files related to Lin Hu’s case in front of Yu Xin and demanded, “Before you took on Lin Hu’s case, did you bother to find out what kind of person Lin Hu was?”

Yu Xin replied with hurt in her eyes, “How could I not know about the person involved in the case I took on!”

“So you knew that Lin Hu was responsible for many evil deeds?” Yu Qingfeng glared fiercely at his daughter.

Yu Xin retorted defiantly, “So what if he did many evil deeds, that’s all in the past.

Now he has a warm family, yet he was brutally murdered by Lu Chuan, that evil demon.

Doesn’t he deserve justice?”

Yu Qingfeng burst out laughing in fury, “Justice, indeed!”

He then asked, “Do you know anything about Lu Chuan?”

Yu Xin said, “Why should I bother knowing about him?

All I know is that he killed someone and he is an evil demon.

He must be punished!”

Yu Qingfeng was so angry that he raised his hand again.

Yu Xin quickly dodged and screamed hysterically, “Am I wrong to pursue justice?

Yet you hit me for it.

What gives you the right to be Chief of the Censorate Department!”

Yu Qingfeng, fighting the pressure in his heart, bellowed, “If you were truly pursuing justice, then you should have thoroughly investigated the matter!”

“For many years, Lu Chuan has been diligent and helpful, never doing anything to harm others.

But his ex-girlfriend and her lover, dissatisfied with him, paid Lin Bao to commit murder.

Unexpectedly, Lin Bao ended up killed by Lu Chuan in self-defense.

Lin Hu, seeking revenge for Lin Bao, set his sights on Lu Chuan.”

“I don’t know how Lin Hu died, and perhaps he was indeed killed by Lu Chuan, but even so, given all the known facts, Lu Chuan was acting in self-defense and is without any culpability!”

Yu Xin was stunned and muttered, “Lin Bao was hired by Qin Lan and Liu Kun?

They…

they lied to me?”

Yu Qingfeng snorted coldly and continued, “And the person you ‘righteously’ seek justice for, Lin Hu, has been abusing his wife and daughter for years.

Just last month, he severely injured his wife for not obeying him, for refusing to sleep with someone else, and now she’s still lying in the hospital.

His daughter has been treated no better than a beggar.

Did you know about that?”

Yu Xin was at a loss for words and stammered, “But…”

Yu Qingfeng cut her off coldly, “No buts!

Your so-called justice is merely satisfying your own vanity!”

“When you receive a case, you don’t look at the facts or discern right from wrong.

You’re just eager to arrest the supposed culprit so everyone will praise and commend you.”

“Are you truly doing this for justice?

That’s just a label you’ve put on yourself.

Your real motive is to show off, to satisfy your vanity.

As for the truth, you don’t care at all!”

Yu Xin’s true self was laid bare, and she completely broke down, collapsing on the floor and bursting into uncontrollable sobs, “You only criticize me.

I just wanted you to praise me for once, what did I do wrong!”

Yu Qingfeng took a deep breath, “I acknowledge that I am partly to blame for not raising you better, that’s why you turned out this way.

But I never imagined you would go to such an extreme.

A good man has been wrongfully imprisoned because of you.

You’ve disappointed me too much!”

Yu Xin gritted her teeth and said, “Even if I wrongly accused Lu Chuan, he still hit me.

He’s no good either.

He deserves to be locked up!”

Yu Qingfeng, dismayed by his daughter’s obstinacy and feeling dizzy from the anger, collapsed to the ground and lost consciousness.

Zhang rushed over to help him up, “Chief, wake up!

Don’t scare me, please!”

Yu Xin, startled, realized only then that her father was on the brink of death, and she hastily crawled over.

She glared at Zhang and scolded, “How could my father end up like this?

How could you take care of him like that!”

Zhang recounted the events of the previous day.

“The Chief must receive treatment from Miracle Doctor Lu before five o’clock, or his life will be in danger!”

Yu Xin’s mouth fell open in shock, “The patient Lu Chuan mentioned…

is my father?”
