Chapter 220 Bad News
“Later, after our investigation and comparison, we confirmed that the murderer was a young man named Ye Huai.
“He was originally a professional thief and had been detained several times for breaking and entering
“Other than the one that was clearly captured on the surveillance camera, there were two other murder cases. He is also a prime suspect, but we have yet to find any evidence to prove that he was the murderer
“But as for the one captured by the surveillance camera, we are very sure that he is the murderer
“And he appeared on An Chang Avenue with you this morning.Mr. Lin, please tell me why this happened, for the sake of those who died in vain.”
Chief Feng begged very earnestly.
Although he had been respectful to Lin Bai in the past, he had never spoken in such a pleading tone.
It could be seen that Chief Feng really had no other choice. That was why he had lowered his face and pleaded so many times.
Lin Bai could not help but feel a little soft-hearted.
He tried to ask, “Chief Feng, have you heard of the parallel space?”
Chief Feng nodded. “Yes.”
“So what you’re saying is that all of you entered another parallel space and then transmigrated back to our current world, so it looks like all of you appeared out of thin air to others.”
“Is my understanding correct?”
Director Feng’s understanding was very good. Lin Bai had just started, but he had already understood everything.
Lin Bai said, “That’s right. That’s more or less what it means.”
The concept of a barrier would be more complicated than that of a parallel space, and it would also involve superpowers.
Perhaps, it might even involve the hunter game.
Lin Bai didn’t want to go through so much trouble, so he only used the excuse of “Parallel space.”
Even so, the psychological shock caused by Chief Feng wasn’t small.
It took Chief Feng a long time to barely digest this information.
Then, he smiled bitterly and said, “Even if I can accept and believe this statement, the provincial leaders definitely won’t believe it.”
Lin Bai said, “Then this is not a problem that I have to consider.”
“Youasked me for the truth, and I told you. As for how to explain it to the higher-ups, you have to think of a way yourself.”
Chief Feng’s head hurt so much that he sighed repeatedly.
He originally thought that after he pried open Lin Bai’s mouth, all the problems would be solved easily.
In the end, he did not expect that it would instead cause him even more of a headache.
Because what Lin Bai said could not be written into the investigation report no matter what.
Lin Bai said, “Chief Feng, I’ve said everything I can. If you don’t have any other questions, can I leave now?”
Chief Feng nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes. I’m sorry to have wasted your time again.”
Lin Bai smiled and said, “It’s fine. It’s my duty.”
“But if you need to ask me anything in the future, can you try to ask me over the phone? Don’t make me run to the police station again and again, okay?”
Lin Bai was really a little bored and didn’t want to come again. Chief Feng said a lot of apologetic and grateful words and promised to try not to torture Lin Bai in the future.
Only then did Lin Bai leave with satisfaction.
After leaving the police station, Lin Bai planned to report his safety to Yu Jinmo before returning to school.
In the end, when he took out his phone, he saw a few unread messages. They were all from Yu Jinmo.
“Lin Bai, have you settled the matter on your side?”
“If you’ve settled it, give me a call as soon as possible.”
“Lin Bai? Reply as soon as you see it. Urgent.”
There were a few more questions at the back that were basically the same.
It could be seen that Yu Jinmo was really anxious.
Lin Bai quickly called her and asked, “What’s wrong? What Happened?” Yu Jinmo said, “Grandpa called me just now and said that he was sick and wanted to see me.”
“He even asked me to bring you along. He wants to see you as well.”
Yu Jinmo’s biological grandfather had long passed away. The “Grandfather” she was referring to now was naturally the god-grandfather she had acknowledged a few months ago
Ye Weijun, Old Master Ye. Old Master Ye was not an ordinary person. If he stomped his feet, half of dragon country would tremble.
Lin Bai was able to receive so much help and preferential treatment from the police because of Old Master Ye’s reputation.
Now that Old Master Ye suddenly fell ill, it was not good news.
“Why did Old Master Ye suddenly fall ill? What kind of illness is it? Is It serious?”
Lin Bai asked with concern.
Yu Jinmo said, “Grandfather didn’t tell me the specific details. He only said it was a minor illness and nothing would happen. He told me not to worry.”
“But he deliberately called me and asked me to meet him in the city. I felt that it couldn’t really be a minor illness…”
Yu Jinmo’s voice gradually fell. She didn’t continue, but her meaning was already very clear.
In fact, it wasn’t difficult to guess.
If it really was just a minor illness, old master ye wouldn’t have made this call at all.
He specifically asked Yu Jinmo to go to Dragon City and also told him to bring Lin Bai with him. There was only one explanation —
The old man was already terminally ill and felt that he did not have much time left.
That was why he had anxiously asked Yu Jinmo to bring Lin Bai over. He wanted to see his godgranddaughter and future grandson-in-law before he died.
He needed to see Lin Bai with his own eyes and confirm that Lin Bai was someone that his godgranddaughter could entrust to her for life. Only then would he feel at ease.
This was a farewell, and it was even more of a request. After thinking through all of this, Lin Bai knew that he had to go to Dragon City no matter what.
Lin Bai said, “I’ll ask for leave from school immediately, and then I’ll buy the fastest ticket to Dragon City.”
“Have you taken leave?”
Yu Jinmo said, “Not yet, because I want to confirm if it’s convenient for you to go with me first.”
Lin Bai said, “In this situation, even if it’s not convenient, it has to be convenient.”
“Alright, Hurry up and call the instructor to apply for leave. I’ll go to the hospital to pick you up later. Let’s go straight to the airport.”
“Okay.”

Yu Jinmo acknowledged and said with some hesitation, “But if I leave, who will take care of Jiang Yu?”
“She just had a miscarriage and her body is at its weakest. She can’t be left unattended.”
One was her god-grandfather who loved and took care of her. On the other side was her best friend who had played with her since she was young. Yu Jinmo was really in a dilemma. No matter who she left behind, she would feel very guilty. However, she was too busy to take care of both of them at the same time.
Lin Bai immediately said, “I’ll tell Director Xu to arrange for a few more doctors and nurses to take care of Jiang Yu later. I guarantee that nothing will happen to her. Don’t worry.”
Yu Jinmo recalled Director Xu’s respectful manner in front of Lin Bai and knew that what Lin Bai said was true.
He asked President Xu to arrange people to take care of Jiangyu. President Xu certainly wouldn’t dare to be slipshod.
