Chapter 701: Mingyue Enters the Lord’s Heart (34)

This dialog box wasn’t like the normal ones and looked rather strange.
Furthermore, Pan Mingyue had only opened the photo editing software on her computer and hadn’t opened any messaging software. In particular… the message appeared word by word.
The other party waited for a while and didn’t receive a reply.
Seemingly a little impatient, the other party sent another message—
[?]
For some reason, although Old Zhang and the two chiefs couldn’t see the other party, they still felt an inexplicable sense of pressure upon seeing this simple question mark.
When Pan Mingyue came back, the three of them didn’t dare to move towards the “question mark” that was now obviously a font size larger.
“Team Leader Pan, this…” Old Zhang glanced at her and pointed at the computer.
With a bottle of water in one hand, Pan Mingyue looked down.
She knew who it was the moment she saw the dialog box.
She typed a line telling Qin Ran that Lu Zhaoying’s mobile phone was muted and he was with her, so she would find him with the phone.
After she left, Old Zhang and the others exchanged glances.
They didn’t dare to ask further. After all, not many people in Beijing dared to call Lu Zhaoying by his full name. Not even the Lu family members dared to do so.
…
“Why is she looking for me?” Lu Zhaoying took the phone, thinking about how Qin Ran had the same temper as his mother. He couldn’t help but rub his nose.
Pan Mingyue glanced at him. “It seems a little urgent.”
Without asking further, Lu Zhaoying quickly picked up the phone and called Qin Ran.
“Find a quiet place.” Qin Ran had just returned home from the research room. She threw a baby bottle to Cheng Ziyu for him to drink and said once Lu Zhaoying had found a quiet place, “Mingyue moved Yi Chu’s information last time. She dug out the information of Yi Chu’s minion.”

Having received Cheng Juan’s guidance, Lu Zhaoying was much smarter now. He glanced at Pan Mingyue not far away and asked, “When I bring her back two days later, can they still support it?”
Yi Chu might not have any evidence to capture Feng Loucheng, but the Feng family might reveal a cloven foot.
He wasn’t too pleased about bringing Pan Mingyue back now.
Qin Ran glanced at Cheng Ziyu, who also glanced at her expressionlessly. Then, he climbed from one side of the sofa to the other, gave Qin Ran a place, and continued drinking milk. Qin Ran sat down on the sofa and propped her legs up casually. “No one in your special training camp is promoted to the first district. You’ll have to change the leader.”

Lu Zhaoying wasn’t worried about this and smiled easily. “Don’t worry.”
After hanging up, he walked over to Pan Mingyue, who was looking down and stepping on the shadow of the tree.
“Let’s go back, they still have to practice later,” Lu Zhaoying said calmly without mentioning the Feng family.
He had the same view as Qin Ran on this point.
Pan Mingyue didn’t ask further, because she was still thinking about the pictures.
After returning, she took off her clothes and went to take a bath.
The living condition here was very simple. The bathroom was a very small separate one, located inside the room she stayed in.
The structure of the room was simple.
Lu Zhaoying was discussing the improvement of the training with Old Zhang and several others.
As for the instructors who had previously opposed it, especially Tong Yan, Lu Zhaoying had assigned them to the training camp farthest away, so they wouldn’t be an eyesore any longer.
They were still talking when Pan Mingyue’s phone rang.
Lu Zhaoying glanced over at her. It was Pan Mingyue’s aunt, but he didn’t pick up and waited for the call to disconnect.
After a while, her cell phone rang again. It was still from her aunt.
Afraid that something urgent had happened, Lu Zhaoying raised his hand to stop them first and opened a very small gap in the bathroom. “Hey, your aunt called three times. Did something urgent happen?”
“Tell her to call again later.” Pan Mingyue raised her voice in the bathroom.
Lu Zhaoying closed the door and picked it up. Before he could say anything, he heard the crackling sound of a female. “Mingyue, are you graduating this year? Your uncle has been nagging about your work. If you don’t have one, come back home. Your uncle and I are still here…”
Lu Zhaoying knew this was Pan Mingyue’s only relative.
In the beginning, when Pan Mingyue knew that the drug lords had found their home, she had never dared to return to her uncle’s home, for fear that they would come for retribution. She didn’t dare to recognize them, and even a phone call had to be covered by Qin Ran.
At the time of her parent’s funeral, she hadn’t notified her uncle either.
Lu Zhaoying still respected her aunt very much, and he politely told her to call again later.
The aunt paused for a moment and then asked a little nervously, “Who are you? What’s your relationship with Mingyue? Why did you pick up her phone?”
She shot forth with three consecutive questions.
Lu Zhaoying cleared his throat. “I’m her friend.”
He didn’t dare to say that she was taking a shower.
After Pan Mingyue changed her clothes, she went out with her cell phone and returned the call. When she returned to the house, Lu Zhaoying was still discussing matters with the others. She glanced at him, remained silent, and went out with her computer.

…
The next day, the decision was implemented because of Cheng Juan’s intervention, and all training models were improved.
There were 10 special training teams in the special training camp.
Other than the first assault team, the instructors of the other team didn’t understand it.
“Isn’t this ridiculous?” someone frowned and said. “Our training never needed to reach a set standard, but they’re still making this change…”
1
The instructor of the first assault team was about to leave, but upon hearing such complaints, he said, easygoing, “Young Master Lu isn’t messing around. You’ll know the effect after training for a while.”
“You’re always in the last place, of course, you’re not in a hurry.” Tong Yan didn’t want to listen to him and directly said, “You can use it if you want, but I won’t.”

She turned and left.
She was from the Tong family and had a pretty big influence here with her words, so the others just fell silent.
Many people also left with her.
Only two people looked at the instructor of the first team. They were familiar with each other, so they asked him in a low voice, “Do you have any inside information?”
“Yeah…” He thought for a while and said, “Team Leader Pan used five minutes to clear my 16 obstacles. Do you know who her junior is?”
“Shi Liming.”
…
One day later, at the Feng family’s house.
Li Shuangning and Ruan Hao were comforting Madam Feng.
“Auntie, it’s alright now. Don’t worry.” Li Shuangning poured her a cup of tea and comforted her. “My dad is already inquiring about it.”

Madam Feng took the cup. “Yes, it’ll be alright. Shuangning, you’re such a good child.”
After the Feng family’s incident broke out, Li Shuangning and a few of Feng Ci’s friends visited.
Seeing how Li Shuangning had come to comfort her at these times, Madam Feng felt like she had been right about her.
Ruan Hao listened to their conversation and just thoughtfully retracted his eyes from Li Shuangning.
They were still talking.
Suddenly, the sound of police sirens came from outside.
Madam Feng, Li Shuangning, and the others subconsciously felt uneasy.
Within three minutes, a group of heavily armed officers came in. The person in front was iron-faced and impartial. “We’re from Yi Chu, please come with us.”
Feng Ci and Section Chief Jiang just got downstairs, and before Section Chief Jiang could say anything, his phone was confiscated. However, he managed to send a message before that.
“What rights do you have to arrest us?!” Madam Feng and Li Shuangning weren’t as calm and couldn’t help but scream in horror.
No one listened to them.
“Madam Feng, stop screaming, they won’t listen.” Section Chief Jiang was still calm. “They’re from Yi Chu. Even the Supreme Inspection Institute can’t control their business, so we can only wait for the result. Otherwise, even Inspector Feng would have no way.”
“Then… what should we do?” Madam Feng and Li Shuangning were already scared at the mention of the Supreme Inspection Institute.

Section Chief Jiang stabilized himself. “Yi Chu’s people are arresting us because they can’t find Inspector Feng. Don’t worry, we’ll wait for him, but it might take a while.”
None of them understood the world of politics, but they still felt slightly relieved upon hearing Section Chief Jiang’s words.
They stayed in the detention room all night.
The next morning, Feng Loucheng rushed over after handling Yi Chu.
At the sight of him, Madam Feng and Li Shuangning were overjoyed.
Madam Feng rushed over directly. “I’m so glad you’re alright. Let’s go out, I didn’t even sleep last night…”
“These are the gifts you accepted?” Feng Loucheng tossed a list onto the table and stared at her with a heavy face.
Immediately realizing that something was wrong, Madam Feng quickly picked up the list and scanned through it.
The above were all odds and ends, most of which she had purchased at the beauty salon.
She shook her head and said with a pale face, “I’ve always been very careful and have never received gifts. These were all paid for by my friends, and I’ve paid for them before too. This is simply out of context! They can help me testify!”
As Madam Feng, how could she not know the importance of accepting bribes? She had always been very cautious and didn’t expect to be investigated.
“I knew it.” Feng Loucheng pressed his temples. “Section Chief Jiang, your information this time has directly pulled the claws of Yi Chu’s minion. They won’t rest without drawing blood. I’m sorry I’ve implicated you.”
“Then, what should I do?” Madam Feng looked up at him in a daze.
“Yi Chu has always been very arrogant.” Section Chief Jiang shook his head and lowered his voice. “I was too reckless to publish their intelligence clues.”
Feng Loucheng shook his head. “I’ll go out to find someone first.”
Madam Feng sat down blankly on a stool. “Section Chief Jiang, Yi Chu…”
“Yi Chu has always been very fierce in handling matters. Inspector Feng almost fell into their conspiracy. This time, I’m afraid it’s hard to come out unharmed. Those who play politics with them can’t win over their conspiracies. Even the Inspection Institute’s martial arts can’t defeat them, either.” Section Chief Jiang shook his head and smiled wryly. “It’s alright. I’m retiring in three months, anyway. It’s just that time is too tight, and we’re all here.”
Madam Feng was no longer thinking about how to get out, and all the information bombarded her mind.
An hour later, Li Shuangning and Ruan Hao were brought out. Madam Feng wanted to talk to Li Shuangning, but she dropped her hands when she realized Li Shuangning was avoiding her.

It was Ruan Hao who comforted Madam Feng and Feng Ci.
…
There were no clocks here, and they couldn’t see the time, so Madam Feng didn’t know how much time had passed.
The iron door suddenly opened, and the three people in the detention room suddenly raised their heads.
Madam Feng felt a little dizzy at the sight of a familiar person. “Why are you here?”
Pan Mingyue glanced at her and greeted her. “I’m here to take you out first.”
Madam Feng never expected that the person to see them at this time would be Pan Mingyue.
“Mingyue, how are you going to do that?” She looked up at her and shook her head. “Your uncle hasn’t come yet. Section Chief Jiang said Yi Chu…”
Pan Mingyue looked away. “Come with me.”
Madam Feng glanced at Section Chief Jiang but didn’t expect the previously apprehensive him to immediately follow her without hesitation.
Outside, a chief officer stopped her. “Deputy Pan, this is not in compliance.”
Pan Mingyue glanced at him.
Beside her, Lu Zhaoying grabbed his weapon and pressed the peaked cap on his head impatiently. “If you want to play martial arts with us, I’m afraid you can’t afford to.”
