After making arrangements with Lin Wei, Mei Shu began to work on Lu Ming’s matter.

The so-called key witness she mentioned was actually Mei Jing.

It wasn’t difficult to get Lu Ming released, but the problem was that Mei Jing, who had been obedient the previous night, was now refusing to testify.

“I’m not going.” Mei Jing firmly refused without hesitation.

Mei Shu, with patience, asked, “Why not?”

“That scumbag should rot in jail for the rest of his life; he doesn’t deserve to live! Sister, we shouldn’t let him go!” Mei Jing insisted passionately.

Mei Shu looked at him with surprise. “1 didn’t expect you, All Jing, to be so justice-minded!”

Mei Jing was annoyed. “What do you mean you didn’t expect? What kind of person am 1 in your eyes?”

Afraid that Mei Jing would get really angry and she’d have to work hard to soothe him, Mei Shu quickly placed a hand on his shoulder and gently guided him to sit down in a chair before explaining in detail, “I don’t mean to release him permanently; it’s just temporary. And you know, even if we put him in prison, he’ll eventually be released and continue to harm society.”

“What should we do then?” Mei Jing really despised men like Lu Ming.

Ever since he saw Lu Ming act lecherous that day, he had developed an aversion to him. Now, Mei Jing couldn’t fathom helping release him from the police station.

Such a bastard should be locked up inside forever and never come out to harm society!

“I have a way to deal with him. Listen to me first and do as 1 say.” Mei Shu patted his head with a smile. “Don’t worry. Sister will definitely not help him. I will definitely make Lu Ming pay a painful price.”

“Okay, it’s your word. If I’m not satisfied with what happens to him, I’ll go tell the police, and it’ll be your fault!” Mei Jing threatened Mei Shu.

He didn’t want to make things difficult for his own sister, but he just wanted to ensure that bad people received the punishment they deserved.

Mei Jing simply wanted to remind Mei Shu to think it over carefully.

However, to his surprise, Mei Shu readily agreed.

Mei Jing had no choice but to follow Mei Shu’s instructions the next day. He recounted the events he witnessed at the bar when Lu Ming was present, although he was given a gentle scolding by the police.

On the other side, Sheng Quan also eased off on further troubling Lu Ming. The police had limited evidence, and as Lu Ming hadn’t committed any substantive wrongdoing, they had to release him after detaining him for over twenty-four hours.

Lin Wei rushed to pick up her son the moment she received the call.

She couldn’t help but hug Lu Ming and cry, “My poor son, do you know how worried I’ve been for you these past two days?”

Lu Ming’s eyes welled up, his voice choked, “Mom, I’m so sorry. I made you worry, but how did I get released so quickly?”

When she heard her son ask about this, Lin Wei halted her tears, wiped her eyes, and gestured for him to look at Mei Shu. “It was her who found a way to save you.”

“Was it you?” Lu Ming stared at Mei Shu with an intense glare. “Wasn’t it you who tipped off Sheng Quan, causing me to be tortured at the police station for no reason?”

“Son, this matter really has nothing to do with her,” Lin Wei said apologetically. She then turned Lu Ming to face Mei Shu. “Xiao Ming just got released, and he hasn’t fully understood the situation. Don’t blame him. This time, you’ve helped us, so don’t worry, I’ll keep my promise, and I’ll do everything in my power.”

“That’s good, then,” Mei Shu glanced at Lu Ming coldly and put on a mocking smile. “Now that you’re safely out, I won’t bother you any longer. I’ll be leaving.”

Lin Wei also held her son’s arm and walked out, weeping.

At the police station.

Captain Wang observed the scene where Mei Shu and Lu Ming were talking.

Beside him, a police officer also showed some surprise. “They actually know each other? Captain, why do 1 feel like this case isn’t that simple?”

Captain Wang pondered for a moment. “Investigate Mei Shu and Lu Ming’s family relationship, and see if they have any other private interactions.”

“But the case has already concluded. Is it still worth looking into?” the police officer asked, puzzled.

Captain Wang’s expression turned serious. “1 have a feeling that there’s more to this case than meets the eye. To avoid us being too passive, I’d like you to investigate.”

Having received orders from the captain, the police officer did not dare to object. “Understood. I’ll start the investigation now.”

On the other side.

Before getting into the car, Mei Shu suddenly paused and looked in the direction of the police station, a deep smile playing on her lips.

“Sister, get in the car quickly. We agreed to visit Xiao He today!”

Mei Jing, seeing that Mei Shu had stopped abruptly, quickly opened the car window and urged her on.

Mei Shu snapped out of her thoughts and got into the car. “How long has it been since you’ve seen Xiao He?”

Mei Jing scratched his head, feeling somewhat guilty. “It’s been a few months. I’m usually busy with my social life, so I haven’t had time to visit him..”
