"So, classmate Tang Qian, what are you doing here today?" Lu Yao opened the door and got out of the car smoothly, unabashedly showing his true face, "Give me a convincing reason, maybe the policeman brother He will let you do what you want to do, and even help you."
Tang Qian was not too surprised by her appearance. He just turned his gaze and asked tentatively: "What is this police officer's name?"
It seems that he thought Lu Yao used a pseudonym.
Lu Yao snorted: "My name is Lu Yao. I can change my name or my surname no matter what! Don't expose me, Mr. Tang, I want to pretend to be an underage student for a while longer."
Tang Qian looked her up and down again. It seemed that Lu Yao's baby face was indeed more like that of a high school student. It was difficult to think of her as a qualified police officer. On the contrary, the latter seemed unconvincing as the truth.
Song Qiaoyu also got out of the car, and while they were chatting, she checked that there was indeed a parking space nearby. Then he came back and patted Tang Qian on the shoulder.
"To say it, or not to say it?"
This is already a forced question.
But unlike in the past, Tang Qian clearly wanted something now and could no longer remain silent. His twists and turns when he went out showed that he really wanted to complete the trip without being interfered by the police. However, being caught up by others... is really the result of inferior skills and helplessness.
Tang Qian sighed.
Just as Lu Yao was about to say something, he saw Tang Qian turn his attention to him, feeling a little confused.
Tang Qian stared at Lu Yao with a solemn expression and said, "Officer Lu, you saw me and Zhu Li talking during the day, right?"
Lu Yao was a little confused for a moment: "I saw it...what do you mean? Are you here to have a tryst with a girl?"
As she said that, she turned her head to look at the suburbs under the night sky, and asked curiously: "How good are children today at playing?"
"Of course not..." Tang Qian said with a smile, "But I am here really because of her."
Song Qiaoyu listened, a little confused, but generally understood that Zhu Li should be a female student.
He raised his finger and pointed to the other side of the sidewalk and whispered: "That's the suburbs over there. Zhu Li's father disappeared a while ago, and the last time he went out with his family was in that area. Zhu Li said she wanted to find someone to accompany her to confirm. .”
"So she asked you to come with her?" Song Qiaoyu frowned, "Why?"
This seems baseless. Tang Qian is just a high school student. Since he has clues, why not provide them to the police.
Lu Yao made a "wait" gesture, picked up the laptop from the car, and began to swim through the databases within her reach to verify some of the things Tang Qian said.
"She just said she was very suspicious. The situation at that time was quite complicated." Tang Qian spread his hands, "Zhu Li's father did not disappear during their outing, but his reaction during that time made Zhu Li feel strange. After that, After a few days, she completely disappeared. She was afraid that she would think too much and trouble others..."
"There is indeed a missing report record." Lu Yao found the record, "Let me take a look...Zhu Youjun, missing for fifty-six hours, has this matter. A case has been opened for investigation, and someone else is following up. Why, if you have something to do, don't call the police. You, your classmate? This is not ideological education." She looked at Tang Qian, also looking for a convincing explanation.
Tang Qian licked his lips, as if he didn't want to continue talking.
"If you don't say anything, I'll send you back. Our officer Song drives very fast, and it's only because he's following the car that he slows down. Your journey took more than half an hour, and when he returned, he started to rush. I'm afraid it won't only take fifteen minutes." I will definitely go home quickly. Then I can naturally let you let go of the beautiful female classmate." Lu Yao threatened enthusiastically, but was knocked on the head by his companion Song Qiaoyu, who put the laptop back aggrievedly.
"In addition to not being confident in the conclusions of her suspicions, she seems to be hesitant to tell the police about her suspicions, or she is a little afraid of the police. It just so happens that I...may be more reliable in their eyes." Tang Qian hesitated. , but still answered truthfully.
Lu Yao was a little confused: "You?"
"I am the president of the school detective agency..." Tang Qian seemed to find it a bit difficult to say, "Although it is not recognized by the school, it is just a... group organized by the students themselves. I usually just give out questions and do exercises... and so on. of."
Tang Qian's middle school is a typical key middle school oriented towards focused learning. The club activities are basically useless, and there are only a few clubs that can pass the review and be certified by the school.
But privately, students who are full of interests and hobbies will also organize some activities on their own and establish many social groups. Lu Yao also knew a little bit about it, but because he didn't experience the so-called club recruitment period at school, he didn't know much.
According to Tang Qian, he originally just joined the group, participated in the exchange of interests, and said a few words. Then I accumulated some trust and prestige among the student group during the chat. As the group leader, the former president was about to graduate. Seeing that he seemed good, I gave him the position of group leader.
Nowadays, most of the small groups that run mystery agencies and detective agencies are places where they discuss and create some self-created reasoning questions, and they have their own small circle. Tang Qian is a smart child, and he is not resistant to social interaction. He can barely respond to people's requests. He happens to be interested in this kind of thing, and is very popular in this small circle.
Then Tang Qian inexplicably became the president of some kind of detective agency, just because of the position of a group leader in the group - he still feels that his experience is a bit unclear. Even the person who entrusted him only had a tentative attitude and pulled someone over to help.
"I think it's quite fun." Lu Yao commented, "So what? As the president of the detective agency, Zhu Li trusts you and respects you, so he entrusts you to do things naturally? Don't you think it's weird?" She seemed quite cool. Envy, he looked up and down at the reluctant "Detective Agency President" with great interest. He seemed to have been thinking about whether during his student undercover career, he could try to sneak into the enemy camp, seek to usurp the throne, and try to become a detective agency member. It feels like being entrusted with handling a case.
"You really didn't design it on purpose?" Song Qiaoyu asked from the side, finally understanding half of the truth.
It seemed that Tang Qian was already somewhat demonized in his eyes. Of course, Officer Song would never admit this.
Tang Qian was silent for another moment, then raised his head and said, "She said she had originally decided to come, but she thought it was not safe for girls to come here and wanted to find someone to accompany her. I think so too, now that I know about this , we are all classmates, so I won’t agree. Of course, there is no charge. I don’t engage in illegal business, so don’t arrest me.”
This is quite a satisfactory reason and cannot be refused.
Whether as a police officer or as a well-meaning passerby.
"The agreed time is at half past eight," Tang Qian said helplessly, "but they just sent me the location and they have already arrived."
He turned on his phone, and there was indeed a location address nearby.
But Lu Yao spotted Hua Dian and asked doubtfully: "Them?"
Tang Qian was not too surprised and took over the conversation: "There is one more person. If I hadn't come, Zhu Li wouldn't have been able to go to such a place alone."
In Lu Yao's mind, a name was about to come out. She was surprised: "Is it Yang Lexin?"
Tang Qian nodded.
It is not difficult to guess that Zhu Li is a warm-hearted and reliable best friend.
Song Qiaoyu didn't understand what they had seen in school, so she just folded her arms and stood beside them. At this moment, she was more like a ruthless mallet.
"In this case, let's take a trip." Lu Yao made a decision, "Although we can't reveal our identity, we still have to help...the innocent and pitiful little girl."
Song Qiaoyu naturally had no objection. He was waiting for others to make a decision and did not want to use his own brain to judge whether it was reasonable or not.
Maybe...it's not shameful to be self-aware?
"Do you really just want to help your classmates? Don't you have any other ideas?" He just asked one more question while following Tang Qian after confirming the result.
Tang Qian looked a little strange.
"If I say no, are you still going to twist me back?"
"That's not the case."
Song Qiaoyu sighed.
"Let's believe you for once."
After all, it seemed like he wasn't the only one who needed help.
There are more excuses to help... No, it's a reason.
