The boy panicked for a moment, pretending to be calm and said, "The child knows nothing, what nonsense is she talking about? Don't listen to her."

Xu Meir said calmly: "I know what happened. As a party involved, I should be questioned."

The butler and the bodyguard had a bad feeling in their hearts.

"What nonsense are you talking about?!" The boy raised his hand angrily. The little girl's clear dark eyes stared at him motionlessly. The boy turned his head away and put his hand down.

"The child is too dependent on me and doesn't want to leave me," he said to the policeman, then lowered his head to look at the little girl, his eyes almost pleading, "Go home with the housekeeper, okay? Your brother will be back soon."

Xu Meir didn't say anything, just looked at the police seriously.

The policeman keenly sensed that this was unusual: "You two, come with us."

"No!" the boy said excitedly, "She's still so young, it will leave a shadow on her."

Xu Meir walked up to a policeman and said, "Open the car door. I'll go with you."

The policeman looked at his superior, who nodded. He understood and opened the car door, and the little girl got in.

When the boy saw it, he hurried over.

The butler stayed behind to negotiate with the police. The Lu family's status in City A and even in the whole country is one of the best. It can be said that even the current royal family would be a little wary of them. He didn't know how much disturbance it would cause if the heir was taken to the police station. He hoped that the police would let this matter go.

Unexpectedly, the policeman refused sternly. The housekeeper was almost dumbfounded. In the Empire, who would not give face to the Lu family? !

"I'll say it again, Young Master is the only heir to the Lu Group. Do you know what you are doing?"

The policeman sneered: "Of course I know, I am a royal policeman, I am only loyal to the royal family, not to mention, the emperor is guilty of the same crime as the common people!"

The butler knew that he had run into a tough guy and seemed to have no choice but to inform the master.

"Then I'll go to the police station with you!" The butler's face turned cold.

"Whatever you want." The police didn't want to offend anyone, after all, their Seventh Princess...

After arriving at the Royal Police Station, the Lu Group's top lawyer was already waiting inside the police station, and Lu Yi went directly to see Zhou Jin, the director of the Royal Police Station of City A.

Zhou Jin, besides being the chief of the Royal Police, is also the nephew of the eldest princess, and is extremely powerful.

However, the Lu family had never had any conflicts with him. On the contrary, they were partners in some aspects.

Logically speaking, such a thing should not happen to the Lu family. Regardless of right or wrong, the Lu family should be given face, instead of being publicized like today and letting everyone know that the heir of the Lu family has been arrested.

After this incident happened, Lu Yi's first reaction was that someone was targeting the Lu family. Although the Lu family had many rivals, who would dare to do this given their current status in the Xia Kingdom?

He felt very strange about the message he received from his son in the early morning. The little girl mentioned in the message made him even more disgusted. He suspected that the little girl and the people behind her had set up a trap for their Lu family.

In the interrogation room, Lu Qingheng sat on a chair with handcuffs on his hands. He had his eyes half-closed and his expression could not be seen clearly.

The policeman opposite had a serious expression on his face: "You have no grudge against Yang Lao Ba, why did you kill him? And you walked so far in the middle of the night, risking being attacked by a wild animal to kill him?"

The young man said in a low voice, "Because he took me to a cave in Yunzhao Village during the day, where we encountered a big snake. My bodyguard stayed behind to block the snake, and the rest of us fled. Later, we encountered another snake on the way to escape, and Yang Laoba actually pushed me forward and mocked me. From childhood to adulthood, no one dared to do this to me. After returning to the village chief's house, I became more and more angry, so I planned to go find him in the middle of the night, but I accidentally beat him to death."

The two policemen looked at each other. "Is that all? Nothing else?"

The boy raised his eyes, anger in his eyes: "Isn't this enough? If I hadn't dodged quickly, I would have almost died!"

"However," the young man paused and continued, "I still did something wrong. I should have asked the bodyguard or the butler to punish him instead of going there myself."

"You!" The policeman slammed the table, "You simply have no remorse!"

The boy closed his eyes, looking like he didn't want to talk.

The police asked some more questions, but the young master still didn't say anything.

When facing ordinary criminals, the Royal Police have the right to use criminal law, but the boy in front of them has an unusual family background, so they can only leave in anger and wait for instructions from their superiors.

After seeing the person leave, the boy opened his eyes and looked towards the door worriedly, wondering how she was doing...

On the other hand, because Xu Meir looked very young, all the police deliberately asked two female police officers who looked very friendly to interrogate her. In order to make her relax, they did not handcuff her.

"Little sister," the policewoman took a breath, "is what you just said true?"

"Of course." Xu Meir was particularly serious.

The policewoman and her partner looked at each other, the emotions in their eyes were unclear. She gave a look, and her partner immediately understood and left.

The policewoman lowered her voice and said, "Then tell me, how many other children like you are there in the village besides you?"

"There are many, in addition to children, many women have also been trafficked."

"We will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly." The policewoman said with certainty.

"Little sister," the policewoman continued, "how old are you? You don't look like you can kill an adult man by yourself. Are you saying this on purpose to protect Lu Qingheng?"

"You are still young, and you may not know that if you kill someone, you will go to jail, get beaten and scolded, and not even have enough food to eat. Everyone will dislike you," the policewoman said in a soft voice, "So, tell me if Lu Qingheng killed the person?"

Xu Meir suddenly raised her eyes. What she said was very strange, with strong inducement and suggestion. If it was a normal little girl, she would probably be frightened and say the answer she wanted to hear.
