Chapter 28: Strange Place

  （1）

  These days everyone has been talking about one thing: the inheritance of the Yu family's property.

  Every day, local stations spend half an hour recounting the series of events that began with Yu Chen's coma as the sole legal heir of the Yu family.

  Yu Chen seems to have evolved into a somewhat legendary figure in people's eyes, with so many strange things surrounding him. First, there was the unexplained coma, then the marriage to a girl he didn't know before in a state of brief lucidity, followed by his bizarre disappearance on the first day after the wedding and leaving behind an unbelievable will, and finally being found dead by drowning near Sihou Bridge.

  Will the Yu family's vast business be handed over to outsiders just because of a will? Why did Yu Chen commit suicide, and was it really just a simple case of suicide? What did his wife Ge Tianyu do that would lead Yu Chen to write such a will?

  "It can't end like this, we still have time. Those stinky women want to get their hands on our family's property? They'll have to wait until you kick the bucket, old man!" Yu Lao Er plopped down onto the sofa, wiping his sweat with his sleeve, and furiously said to Yu Lao Ye who was lying in bed.

  "Old Two, you're right." Master Yu's face was all scrunched up, with wrinkles all over, and since he received the news of Yu Chen's death, he seemed to have aged thirty years, now looking like an eighty-year-old elder.

  "I've thought it through, as long as we insist that Xiao Chun has never truly woken up to this point, that's enough. So many people have seen it. When he came back from Zhen Xiu's house, he was awake, but who would say he was fully awake with that stupid look on his face?! As long as we stick to this point, even if the will is written in a ridiculous way, it won't be useful!"

  "I've also been unable to think of anything these past few days because of Xiao Chuan's matter," said Old Master Yu. "Second Brother, you handle this matter from now on. Your older brother's leg is also unable to move, so everything will be handed over to you. Xiao Chuan has already... absolutely cannot lose the Yu family's business again!"

  "Don't worry, if anyone dares to mess with our Yu family, I'll crush him!" After saying that, Yu Lao Er stormed out, leaving only Yu Lao Ye on the bed.

  Yu Lao Ye stared blankly at the spray-painted pattern on his head for a while, and soon he became drowsy again.

  He must not let the Yu family's property fall into outsiders' hands. Mr. Yu thought so and fell asleep dazedly.

  Liao Xin was busy and flustered.

  Since returning from the riverbank, Shen Yu had his computer moved to the appraisal department. Previously, only a copy was sent for appraisal, so it's possible that this was the reason why the appraisal result went wrong.

  "Xin Xin, help me retrieve the surveillance footage from the Fourth Bridge." Yuan Fei poked his head out of the adjacent office.

  "Liao Xinxin, make a copy of this document and send it to the deputy police monitor." Shen Yu handed over a very thick document without even lifting his head.

  "Alright, get me a cup of tea." Yin Changjing said while shaking his leg and reading the file.

  "New New, would you also help me pour a cup?" Yuan Fei poked his head out again.

  Liao Xinxin in the tea room held two cups and shouted angrily, "You bunch of lazy bums!!!! I'm not a temporary worker, I'm a forensic doctor!!!!!"

  Yuan Fei stuck his head out again, "So that's how it is?"

  Liao Xin had run up and down the stairs several times, getting so tired that her waist ached, her back hurt, and her legs cramped. As soon as she entered Shen Yu's office, she collapsed onto the sofa, unable to move.

  Shen Yu was repeatedly watching the video recording, heard the sound and raised his head, just to see the girl half-reclining on the sofa with a tired face. He frowned.

  "You don't have to do work arranged by others from now on. Just focus on doing well what I've entrusted you with."

  Liao Xinxin was originally counting in her heart all the people who had been making things difficult for her, and just as she was counting Shen Yi, she heard her direct supervisor speak up. She immediately jumped up, oh no, she had lost control of herself earlier, this time she would probably get scolded again... Ah?

  "What? What did you say?" Liao Xinxin's eyes widened, "Don't need to do it? Don't need to do what? Can I have a holiday?"

  Shen Yu looked at Liao Xin Xin, who immediately became energetic upon hearing that she could slack off, and hooked the corner of her mouth upwards. "You heard wrong."

  The girl fainted again.

  However, if Deputy Director Yuan and others ask you to do something, just ignore it. You are now under my command, let them come to me if they have anything. Shen Yu sighed in his heart, he couldn't help but feel helpless towards this lazy, gluttonous, timid, and disrespectful little girl. Her authenticity made him unable to completely harden his heart, plus she was indeed a good analyst, so he decided to let her off this time, saving himself from her sour face ruining his mood every day.

  As expected, Liao Xin jumped up again, her eyes shining with excitement. "Director of Public Security, you are really a good person! I like you the most!"

  Shen Yu's eyebrows jumped up suddenly.

  "Police monitor." The door was suddenly pushed open and Yuan Fei's head popped in, "Yu Jia's second son has arrived. He's arguing outside right now."

  Yu Lao Er...? Liao Xin Xin immediately conjured up an image of a fierce and menacing man in her mind, and then her legs started shaking. What is this guy doing here?! Is it because of that time she ran away and he's come to catch her?!

  "Xin Xin Liao." Shen Yu glanced at Liao Xin Xin who was half squatting, "Stand up straight, I'm not looking for you."

  Someone leaned against the table, easily propping up his body, and then followed Shen Yu out.

  As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he heard someone shouting loudly. Liao Xinxin felt his leg muscles twitching violently, and his eyebrows jumped fiercely. He looked up to see that the person standing in the hall with their hands on their hips, yelling at the top of their lungs like a shrew, was none other than Yu La'ersi, who had no gentlemanly demeanor whatsoever in the hospital.

  To be honest, she thought Yu Lao Er and Yin Vice Monitor were on the same level, but relatively speaking, she was more afraid of Yu Lao Er. This guy gave her a feeling that he would stop at nothing to get what he wanted, without regard for right or wrong. As for Yin Changjing, although he was fierce, he was after all the vice monitor of the provincial government office, so she didn't worry about her own safety.

  The police officers around saw Shen Yu appear and hurriedly ran over one by one, almost with tears in their eyes, "Director, you've finally arrived!"

  "Get rid of it, why don't you just throw it away..." Before Shen Yu could speak, Liao Xinxin immediately poked her little head out from behind.

  Shen Yu shifted his body and pushed the little head that was leaning on his shoulder away, then said to Yuan Fei beside him, "Please ask Mr. Yu to come to the office."

  Yu Lao Er took a glance at Shen Yu's figure and immediately took a big stride to rush over, his speed was really not matching with his body shape.

  "I've been waiting here for half a day, and finally I managed to catch someone in charge. This case must be reinvestigated!"

  Then he whispered in a low voice, "Don't you know anything? I know a lot. Don't you want to know?"

  Shen Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.
