The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Hide Multiple Identities-Chapter 370: Taking Nan Qingqing Away

Ten minutes later, Officer Xiao Yang ran up to Yan Ren with a telephone in hand.

"Captain Yan, it’s the Director’s call."

Yan Ren took the phone and entered a sealed room, where he heard the Director’s genial voice.

"Yan Ren, why is there a lawyer filing a complaint against you? They even called me directly with their complaint."

He quickly explained, "Director, about that, it’s the lawyer..."

The Director’s voice interrupted him, "Enough, I’ll pretend I never received this complaint. You are about to be promoted. At this critical time, it’s better not to have any complaints against you."

"Lawyer Shen stated that Nan Qingqing has fully cooperated with the investigation, so let her and Lawyer Shen leave."

Yan Ren glanced out the window at Shen Lu, who sat leisurely in a distant chair, and wanted to resist further. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

"Director, we can’t let her go; if we do, we may never be able to apprehend her again."

The Director’s amiable tone continued, "Yan Ren, I understand your concerns, and we both know that this case is very important."

"But there is another case that is even more critical."

Yan Ren furrowed his brow, "Director, what do you mean by that?"

The Director’s tone became stern, losing the prior ease.

"Do you remember the Dark Night Organization I mentioned to you before? I’ve recently received intel that a member of the Dark Night Organization has surfaced, and the Shen Lu who appeared in the police station tonight might be one of them."

"We’ve been putting all our effort into investigating the Dark Night Organization, and now that Shen Lu has emerged, she could lead us to them."

"So, right now, you shouldn’t startle them."

Yan Ren understood the Director’s message but thought about his previous solemn promise to Nan Yu.

"But Director..."

The Director said, "Yan Ren, we need to bait the big fish with a long line; you know better than I do. We’ve been pursuing the Dark Night Organization for so many years, and especially in these last two, their misdeeds have escalated, with one tragedy after another."

"This is the only chance we’ve had in a long time. Do you really want to waste it?"

Yan Ren clenched his teeth, struggling to speak, "...No, I don’t."

The Director continued, "Therefore, hand Nan Qingqing over to Shen Lu. Anyway, Nan Qingqing’s parents are in custody, she can’t run away. Perhaps letting her go will bring us an unexpected surprise."

Yan Ren’s brow furrowed with hesitation.

The Director’s voice continued to resound, "Yan Ren, I will handle matters on the Nan Family’s side; don’t worry about any issues. As long as Nan Qingqing and her family are the murderers, they won’t be able to evade us."

"But now that the Dark Night Organization has surfaced, we can’t let go of this only chance."

"Think about your wife and the daughter who never had a chance to be born. They were all killed by these people from the Dark Night Organization."

A pained expression surfaced in Yan Ren’s eyes, and when he looked again at Shen Lu in the distance, a deep hatred was condensed in his eyes.

He gritted his teeth, "Director, I understand. I’ll do as you said."

After hanging up the phone, he walked out of the quiet sealed room, tossing the mobile phone back to Xiao Yang.

Yan Ren darkly instructed, "Xiao Yang, escort Lawyer Shen to go through the procedures, and let her take Nan Qingqing away."

Having said that, he headed off in the opposite direction.

Shen Lu stood up from the chair upon hearing this, a defiant smile on her red lips.

From a distance, she called out to the increasingly distant Yan Ren with a coquettish voice, "Captain Yan, thank you~"

She then withdrew her gaze and turned to follow the young officer to pick up the suspect.
