Chapter 277: A Little Lucky Star
Chapter 277: A Little Lucky Star
"Who is Luo San?" Meng Qianqian asked curiously.
Lu Yuan glanced at Secretary of Justice Xing, who was enjoying a family moment with Bao Shu in the courtyard, and said, "I'll tell you once we're in the carriage."
Secretary of Justice Xing had three sons, but he and his wife had always wanted a daughter.
In the past, they had treated Zhou Nanyan as their own daughter, but just a few days ago, she had entered the palace.
The couple felt a sense of emptiness, and Bao Shu's appearance slightly filled this void.
"I want a pear, a big one from the tree!" Bao Shu pointed to the large tree in the courtyard.
Secretary of Justice Xing laughed and said, "Alright, Grandpa Xing will pick one for you!"
He put Bao Shu down and personally climbed onto a stool to pick a pear.
Hu Shiyeh was so startled that his heart skipped a beat. He ran over, saying, "Your Excellency, be careful! Besides, the pears aren't even ripe yet!"
Bao Shu insisted, "I want the biggest one!"
Secretary of Justice Xing chuckled, "Alright, alright, the biggest one!"
Hu Shiyeh thought, She's unstoppable, completely unstoppable!
Bao Shu played in the Ministry of Justice for half a quarter of an hour, and Secretary of Justice Xing accompanied her for the same amount of time.
Perhaps only this little girl could make the impartial Secretary of Justice Xing set aside his official duties.
Bao Shu had a fruitful time, her arms full... of three pears. "Goodbye, Grandpa Xing! Goodbye, Hu Shiyeh! Goodbye, Uncle Zhang Chang! Goodbye, Xiaoguang..."
Seeing her address so many people by name, Lu Yuan asked Meng Qianqian, "Has she been to the Ministry of Justice before?"
Meng Qianqian shook her head and smiled, "No, it's her first time."
Once in the carriage, Bao Shu immediately ended her playtime, wiping non-existent sweat from her forehead and sighing heavily, "So tired, so tired."
Lu Yuan chuckled, "Why are you tired? Weren't you having fun?"
Bao Shu placed her hands on her waist and said seriously, "It's all for you. You're so ungrateful, stinky Daddy!"
Lu Yuan exclaimed, "You little rascal! I told you I wasn't arrested!"
Bao Shu picked up the leopard cat from the carriage, "Men need to save face."
Lu Yuan was speechless.
Ever since the leopard cat's successful ambush on Xun Yu's carriage driver, Bao Shu had taken a liking to bringing it along. She was known for her loyalty and sense of justice.
Soon, Bao Shu fell asleep, hugging the leopard cat.
Lu Yuan and Meng Qianqian began discussing Luo San.
Although Secretary of Justice Xing had not revealed Hai Zhu's confession to Lu Yuan, it was not difficult for Lu Yuan to deduce from his reaction that Hai Zhu had confessed to his crimes.
Hai Zhu's cooperation was surprising.
When Lu Yuan asked if Hai Zhu had seen anyone, he was merely testing Secretary of Justice Xing. However, the latter's subconscious avoidance gave Lu Yuan the answer he sought.
Lu Yuan wanted to know who that person was, and Meng Qianqian was even more curious.
Lu Yuan pondered, "Based on my understanding of my righteous father, it's unlikely that Hai Zhu was involved in all the murders. He's just one part of it. As for Luo San's information, he probably doesn't know."
Meng Qianqian said, "You mean, he asked Hai Zhu to tell Secretary of Justice Xing about Luo San?"
Lu Yuan nodded, "And Xiao Li's understanding of Hai Zhu should also be from him."
Meng Qianqian suddenly realized, "The person Xiao Li was waiting for is him, and the empty box was given to Xiao Li by him!"
Lu Yuan said, "From his actions, it seems he has the same goal as us. He also wants the Chu family's case to be made public. Once we find Luo San, he will likely reveal himself."
Meng Qianqian nodded in agreement and turned the conversation back to Luo San, "Luo San is so well-hidden, with a fake name, fake origin, and fake friends. What if even his appearance and build are fake? What if he's not even a hunchback?"
Lu Yuan frowned, "That's possible, which greatly increases the difficulty of finding Luo San."
"Yes, the hunchback was his most distinctive feature..."
At this point, Meng Qianqian suddenly had a realization, "I know who Luo San is! Bao Shu has seen him!"
