Chapter 261: Offline Foundation
The visibility of the interrogation room was not high, and there were only some slogans such as "Leniency for Confessions" hanging on the walls.
There are two police officers sitting at the table, one responsible for interrogation and one responsible for recording.
Lu Bai lowered his head and glanced at his hands that were handcuffed to the stool. He didn't try to break free, but nodded seriously: "Yes, that's it."
Bang!
The police officer in charge of the interrogation slammed the table: "Be honest! If there is no evidence! We won't catch you!"
After a hasty intimidation like going through the process, the police officer softened his tone: "Let me tell you the truth. I might as well tell you that your accomplices have already confessed you. If you tell me the truth now, they can still give it to you when you are convicted." Be gentle, I'm thinking of you."
Lu Bai pondered for two seconds and then asked: "Since the evidence is conclusive, why did Daxiang's field department hand me over to you?"
By the way, this so-called Daxiang should actually be called Daxiang and Xiaoxiang.
As mentioned before, in addition to being responsible for cultivating Death Fighters, the Death Fight Campus also has some attributes of maintaining social security.
As Daxiang and Xiaoxiang are in charge of the logistics and deployment departments of the ten death fighting campuses, their scope of authority will naturally involve areas related to the crimes committed by death fighters.
Especially the field department, which has a lot of fierce people.
This is why those who can socialize are so panicked when they learn that Daxiang's people are coming.
When the police officer in charge of the interrogation heard Lu Bai's rhetorical question, he was about to raise his hand and continue slapping the table.
But as soon as he raised his hand and before he could slap it down, the door of the interrogation room was suddenly opened.
The leader of the police station led a man in a crisp suit and pushed the door open.
"He's right here. Don't worry, Secretary Shen. There will never be any violent extortion of confessions in our bureau."
After the man called Secretary Shen came in, he first nodded to Lu Bai, then turned to praise the police leader.
“Director Zhang’s reputation for integrity has even been heard by members of the parliament.”
The two of them fake smiled at each other for a while, and then Secretary Shen explained his purpose of coming: "Then I will take this person away."
"Of course no problem."
Director Zhang signaled to his subordinates with his eyes to untie Lu Bai's handcuffs.
Then he added in a low voice: "If this happens again, Secretary Shen can just call me directly. There is no need for you to go there in person."
"Hahahaha, don't you want to meet Director Zhang?"
Noticing that Lu Bai had already stood up and started to move his wrists, Secretary Shen added symbolically: "Director Zhang, we should move around more in the future."
"Definitely, definitely."
Secretary Shen took Lu Bai away, and Director Zhang waved off behind, creating a happy atmosphere.
Walking down the aisle of the police station.
No matter what Secretary Shen's purpose was, he was here to get him out.
Lu Bai thought for a while, then said thank you.
"You don't have to thank me. Even if I don't come, they won't dare to do anything to you."
Secretary Shen's attitude was quite sincere: "According to what I learned, you should have already joined Zu Dian's assessment department, right? With your administrative level as a full-time assistant, as long as you indicate your identity, they will respectfully send you back immediately. Home."
This is true.
After all, from an administrative level, Director Zhang is only an assistant at the deputy level.
This was probably the reason why Daxiang's field department immediately threw Lu Bai into this police station after learning about the situation.
But then again. Lu Bai didn't know Secretary Shen, so it couldn't have been arranged by Pu Xuelia, right?
Fortunately, Secretary Shen obviously knew Lu Bai's doubts and took the initiative to come over and explain in a low voice: "Mr. Lu, please don't worry. I have no ill intentions towards you. It's my young master who wants to see you."
"Your young master?"
Lu Bai always felt that this title seemed a bit too simple, right?
"Young master said that you will understand when you see him."
Secretary Shen didn't explain too much.
The two walked out of the police station side by side, got into a black car, and drove all the way to the central area of the underground city.
…
The car finally stopped in front of a high-end restaurant.
Before Lu Bai got off the car, he saw a young man standing at the door of the restaurant through the one-way window.
Frankly speaking, he really didn't expect to see Xiao Xueyin in such a place.
Lu Bai was still in a daze, but Xiao Xueyin had already stepped forward and opened the car door, with a rather emotional expression on his face: "Brother Lu Bai, I have finally found you."
Xiao Xueyin stepped back half a step, leaving room for Lu Bai to get out of the car, and continued: "I just recently heard that there is a super genius who has been ranked number one in three consecutive years in Zudian Campus. I guessed it was you."
Lu Bai got out of the car, his face still wearing a friendly and harmless smile.
"What a coincidence."
"Who says it's not the case? If I had known that you were also in Vault No. 9, why would I have waited until now to meet you."
Xiao Xueyin was obviously really excited, and his sickly pale skin turned a little rosy.
He directly reached out and took Lu Bai's arm: "Come on, don't stand here, let's go in and eat and chat."
Lu Bai smiled and did not resist, letting Xiao Xueyin pull him into the restaurant.
Secretary Shen didn't follow and stopped the car consciously.
Xiao Xueyin seemed to be a regular visitor here. The doormen on both sides welcomed him with enthusiasm.
Walking into a private room that had been reserved in advance, Xiao Xueyin ordered people to serve food.
While the food was being served, Xiao Xueyin took the initiative and said without waiting for Lu Bai to ask: "Brother Lu Bai, just for your help to me in the Death Arena, in the future, whenever you encounter anything in the dungeon, I will report it directly." My name, let me help you settle it. My Xiao family is in Shelter No. 9, and I’m a bit thin."
He didn't mean to show off, it was more like a concrete self-introduction.
"Secretary Shen probably hasn't told you that my father is a city council member and he supports my contact with you."
The City Council Member can be regarded as a high-ranking person in Vault No. 9.
The policies and laws implemented in the underground city are basically decided by them, the city council members.
There are a total of forty-six seats, and the most ordinary city council members are only one level below the administrative level of Pu Xuelia and other death-fighting campus principals.
As for this kind of person supporting his children's contact with Lu Bai, it's quite normal.
Strictly speaking, many people suffer from the lack of good channels for such a bright potential stock like Lu Bai. If they have the opportunity to contact him, as long as they are not brainless, they will not object.
Of course, Xiao Xueyin did not mention the positions of other family members, but it is not too low, otherwise it would not be called the Xiao family.
Lu Baitian has been in contact with people of Pu Xuelia's level every day, and he has long been disenchanted with senior officials, and he will not be flattered by this.
He smiled and nodded: "I deserve this."
