“Even so, we can’t release you immediately. We need to go through the procedures tomorrow,” said Dai Laozhu.
Xu Yunkai lowered his eyelid and his long eyelashes cast a shadow on his face, making him seem desolate.
Ou Shiman felt very sorry. It was all her fault for implicating him. “Sister, just call brother-in-law. I beg you, okay?”
Seeing Xu Yunkai like this, Ou Xuyan was also wavering. She thought for a moment, then said, “Mr. police, can you return my phone to me? I want to make a call.”
“Who are you going to call?”
“My… Hubby.”
“Oh?” Dai Laozhu smiled. “You’re calling Major General Lu? Very well, I’ll give you a chance. I’ll be waiting to meet Major General Lu.”
The few police officers laughed loudly.
Ou Xuyan didn’t say anything.
Taking the phone in her hand, Ou Xuyan found Lu Fan’s number with reluctance. She really did not want to trouble him, but Xu Yunkai was also innocent, plus he had a blind mother at home…
He was the Senior Officer of the Military District. As long as he spoke to these police officers on the phone, they would let them go.
Ou Xuyan dialed the number.
The phone was picked up in two seconds. Lu Fan’s impatient and displeased low voice was heard, “Ugly girl, where did you go? I didn’t see you when I came back at night. I’m very busy now, don’t cause me any trouble!”
Ou Xuyan was at a loss for words.
He had already said something like this, what else could she say?
“Are you mute? Say something!” Lu Fan was roaring in anger from the other side.
“Haha, how is it? Major General Lu won’t come to pick the lot of you up, right? Little girl, your lies are about to blow up.” At this moment, Dai Laozhu mocked them mercilessly.
His voice was heard by Lu Fan on the other end of the phone. His voice tightened, “Ou Xuyan, who’s talking? Which man are you with in the middle of the night?”
“I…”
“Oh my God, brother-in-law,” Ou Shiman quickly snatched the phone away. “Brother-in-law, come quickly. Sister and I have been locked up in the police station. They won’t let us go.”
The busy tone sounded, the other party had hung up.
Hearing the busy tone, Ou Shiman was speechless
“Sister, brother-in-law hung up on me. He won’t leave us be, right?” Ou Shiman looked at Ou Xuyan.
Ou Xuyan shrugged. It was probably very likely to be the case.
“What? Major General Lu isn’t coming? That’s too bad. Tonight, the three of you can only spend the night here. Xiao Cheng, go and arrange a cell for the three of them. Lock them up.”
“Yes.”Xiao Cheng got up and left.
Dai Laozhu packed the documents and was about to leave when Ou Xuyan said, “Mr. police, please wait a moment!”
“What’s the matter?”
Ou Xuyan nodded. “Yes, I have a request. Could you send someone to Xu Yunkai’s home to inform his mother not to wait up? Just tell her that he has a lot of homework and will be staying at school tonight.”
“This…” Dai Laozhu thought about it.
“Mr. police, it’s your responsibility to serve the people. Besides, you know very well whether we have done anything wrong or not, right? How about this, if you agree to this request, I’ll… I’ll really give you Lu Fan’s autograph.”
It shouldn’t be too difficult to get his autograph. When the time came, she could tell a lie and get his autograph to give it to Dai Laozhu. Ou Xuyan planned in her heart.
Dai Laozhu thought about it for a moment. He would not lose out on this deal. Although he did not believe that this lady was Major General Lu’s wife and that the other girl was Major General Lu’s sister-in-law or anything like that, Xu Yunkai indeed did need the help.
