“Because of this, I threw him a lot of dirty looks. I even ignored him when he was on vacation. I was afraid that he would be like his father…”
“His mother left because she was too sad back then. He is now my only family member. Even if he wants to pursue his dream, he should at least consider an old man like me who is about to die. Sigh…”
“Who knew that my worries would come true? He has been gone for half a year, but there is no news of him. Even his colleagues don’t know where he is.”
As the old man spoke, his eyes were already watery. He looked even more pitiful as he was already exhausted.
Su Meng sighed in her heart. Then, she solemnly promised the old man, “Elder Lu, don’t be anxious. I will do my best to help you find him. However, you will need some things to find him. As long as it is something that he often comes into contact with or likes, it will be fine.”
Hearing Su Meng’s promise, Elder Lu looked at Su Meng firmly. This young girl in front of him actually gave him an inexplicable sense of trust.
“Okay.” Lu Bin slowly nodded.
They drove for nearly an hour before reaching their destination.
This was a sparsely populated suburb. The car was parked in front of a three-story luxury villa. This was the Lu family. It looked even more luxurious than the Wei family’s old residence.
To be able to live in such a place, Su Meng looked at Lu Bin. She was a little curious about his identity. With one look, she could tell that he was definitely not a family member of an ordinary policeman.
After entering the villa, Elder Lu brought Su Meng to Lu Bai’s room. As he lived on the third floor, he needed to take the elevator up.
Before entering the elevator, Su Meng saw a mahogany cabinet placed in the opposite room. It was filled with medals. Beside the medals, there was a photo of Old Lu. He was wearing a military uniform and looked particularly majestic.
She did not expect Old Lu to be a soldier. He even had so many medals that represented honor!
Su Meng’s heart was filled with respect. She looked at Lu Bin with even more respect. So this family was all heroes who defended their home and country!
The two of them came to Lu Bai’s room. The room was simple and tidy. Other than the bed, table, and chair, there was also a cabinet. There was nothing else.
Lu bin walked to the table shakily. He took out a black pistol from the drawer and handed it to Su Meng.
When Su Meng saw this thing, she was stunned. She did not expect this to be used.
Then, she thought about it. It was actually normal. Lu Bai’s dream was to be a police officer. It was normal for him to have a gun at home. When she thought about it, Su Meng respectfully took it.
However, when the gun entered her hand, Su Meng realized that something was wrong. The gun was actually fake. It felt like it was carved out of wood.
However, looking at it as a whole, it really looked like a real gun. Su Meng had never seen a real gun before, but she had never eaten pork before and had never seen a pig run. She had watched so many police movies, so everyone knew what a gun looked like.
“This was made by Lu Bai himself. After his father passed away, he encouraged himself to become a police officer. Before he was admitted to the police academy, he carved a gun for himself.”
“This gun is his favorite thing. As long as he is at home, he will take it out and fiddle with it. Nothing is more suitable than this.”
Lu Bin seemed to have noticed Su Meng’s surprise, so he explained.
“However, he hasn’t been back for a long time. I don’t know if it will work. I have other things, but this is related to his professional secrets. I hope I don’t have to take it out until the most critical moment.”
Lu Bin’s voice was a little hoarse at the end. He stared at the prop gun in Su Meng’s hand, his eyes red.
“Actually… Actually, I’m proud of him and my son. They’re all good, but I’m… too selfish…”
“If there’s a chance in the future, I really want to tell him that I acknowledge him in my heart…”
His voice became more and more hoarse until it finally trembled until he could no longer speak. Although his eyes were red, he was trying his best to suppress his emotions and prevent himself from crying.
“Elder Lu, don’t worry. Don’t be sad for now. We have to seize the time now and see if we can find any clues about him.”
Lu Bin also brought up Su Meng’s emotions. Her eyes were red as she comforted him.
“Okay!” Old Lu nodded.
Su Meng took out the compass from her bag and placed the gun in the middle of the compass. Then, she made a hand seal. After a moment, Su Meng had an answer in her heart.
