282: Do you trust me?

Su Yue nodded and said affirmatively, "Director, don't worry, I am genuinely willing to do this. I think this method is the most effective at the moment."

After all, the killer already intends to deal with Lin Jia, regardless of the purpose, Su Yue will definitely not let the other party succeed.

And it's impossible for him to let others joke with Lin Jia's life, and therefore only by personally attracting fire can they catch the killer faster.

It's not that Su Yue is boasting, it's mainly because he has already offended Zhu Hua.

If Zhu Hua knew that the reason he was so miserable was likely because of him, then even if Zhu Hua wanted to do something to Lin Jia again, he would definitely prioritize dealing with him first.

He believed that as long as he let Zhu Hua know that he was the one who made him so miserable, he would definitely stop at nothing to get rid of him.

As for the killer not appearing to be Zhu Hua's subordinate, but rather his superior, Su Yue was not worried about this either.

Su Yue believed that neither the killer nor Zhu Hua would want Police to know what they had done.

Now that Su Yue had exposed what the two were desperately trying to hide, the killer would definitely want to deal with him more now.

This way, the killer would focus all his attention on him, and Lin Jia wouldn't have to be so scared.

Su Yue spoke with great certainty, and everyone present saw his sincerity, which made them admire him a little more.

Although Liang Yuzhu repeatedly guaranteed that no one would be harmed, how could such a matter be 100% guaranteed? Unexpected events could happen at any time during the arrest.

Originally, Su Yue had nothing to do with this case, but now he voluntarily offered to be the bait. This kind of courage instantly gave everyone present a new understanding of him.

After all, there is a big difference between being willing to provide information and being willing to disregard one's own safety for the sake of solving a case.

Now that Su Yue had decisively decided to take the risk, it was indeed worthy of everyone's praise.

Seeing how certain Su Yue was, Liang Yuzhu couldn't persuade him anymore for a while.

After all, this was Su Yue's own choice, and he himself felt there was no problem, so she couldn't interfere too much.

Moreover, Liang Yuzhu knew that if she could also be the bait in this case, she would definitely choose to be the bait without hesitation.

Thinking about it carefully, if when she suggested being the bait, Su Yue or others tried to persuade her not to do so, she would definitely refuse without hesitation at that time.

Thinking about it this way, Liang Yuzhu felt that she really had no right to persuade Su Yue anymore.

However, for Su Yue's safety, she would apply for protection for him and would not let anything happen to him.

She didn't know why Su Yue was so certain about being the bait, even though he hadn't undergone any training, and yet he directly maximized the hate value this time.

Doing so could easily provoke the other side, and they might use some underhanded tactics against Su Yue.

Looking at the resolute Su Yue, Liang Yuzhu sighed helplessly in her heart and could only keep a close eye on him from now on to ensure his safety.

With the person involved having no objections and others tacitly agreeing, the plan was finally finalized.

The meeting also ended because of this.

Su Yue, who had originally planned to leave the conference room with Liang Yuzhu, was suddenly stopped by the middle-aged man in the center.

The man had a kind smile on his face and asked Su Yue gently, "Su Yue, can I talk to you?"

Liang Yuzhu instantly looked at the middle-aged man, then suddenly realized that doing so was against the rules, and quickly averted her gaze.

She looked at Su Yue uneasily, with obvious worry in her eyes.

Unlike Liang Yuzhu's nervousness, Su Yue's reaction was also calm.

After all, he had already guessed that someone would keep him for a talk, so he was not surprised when he was called out.

However, seeing that Liang Yuzhu seemed even more nervous than him, Su Yue was somewhat amused by her and felt that Liang Yuzhu was becoming more and more adorable.

He reassured Liang Yuzhu with his eyes, indicating that he would be fine, and also nodded at the man not far away.

"Okay."

Su Yue had seen this man on television, and Liang Yuzhu had just called out his name.

This man was indeed as calm as he appeared in interviews, speaking less than five sentences in total, several of which were directed at him.

Liang Yuzhu also wanted to stay and see what the two of them would talk about, but Liang Yuzhu knew that it was not appropriate for her to stay there at this time.

Therefore, despite her curiosity, Liang Yuzhu wisely left the conference hall.

It wasn't until all the irrelevant people had left the conference hall that the middle-aged man spoke slowly, "Yuan? You haven't told anyone else about your information, have you?"

At this moment, the middle-aged man's aura was fully unleashed, and his eagle eyes were fixed on Su Yue, his gaze deep.

Su Yue was not intimidated by the man's sharp gaze and calmly nodded, "No. I only told a few friends about this when I was helping them, and they are all very tight-lipped."

The middle-aged man nodded and asked again, "Then do you have any wishes to tell us? As long as you ask, we will try our best to fulfill them. Of course, you have to guarantee that you will tell Police the information as soon as possible in the future."

Su Yue did not stand on ceremony with the middle-aged man and directly told him the reason for his exposure.

"I did have a purpose in telling Police. I wanted to get the protection of Police, and this protection is not just for myself, but also for a few of my friends."

"Of course, I and my friends are legal citizens, and we will not do anything illegal or criminal. I just hope that the lives of me and my friends can be guaranteed."

The middle-aged man's gaze towards Su Yue became noticeably deeper, and he asked, "Is that the only one?"

Su Yue nodded affirmatively, "That's right, only this one. This is the only thing that worries me the most at the moment."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man couldn't help but laugh, and he changed his previous assertive demeanor, looking at Su Yue with increasing admiration.

"You are quite clever, I admire you very much."

Su Yue just smiled and didn't respond, as the other party wouldn't want to hear him boast anyway.

Seeing that Su Yue remained calm and unperturbed, the middle-aged man couldn't help but admire him even more, and his tone also unconsciously softened a lot.

He assured Su Yue, "Don't worry, I will send people to protect you and your friends secretly."

Su Yue also assured the middle-aged man, "I will also keep my word."

After hearing Su Yue say this, the middle-aged man was increasingly satisfied with him.

When Su Yue and the middle-aged man came out of the conference hall together, chatting and laughing, Liang Yuzhu, who was waiting on the side, was startled by their familiarity and looked at Su Yue in disbelief.

This time, Liang Yuzhu didn't dare to randomly guess the thoughts of the big shot, but seeing that Su Yue could become so familiar with the big shot so quickly, she felt very proud in her heart, as if she herself was the one chatting with the big shot.

After all, not everyone has the opportunity to chat with a big shot, even she, a genius in the Criminal Investigation Team, has only had a few opportunities to chat with a big shot face-to-face.

As a result, not only did Su Yue achieve this, he even earned the big shot's admiration.

This point made Liang Yuzhu greatly admire him.

But after the admiration, she was more worried.

After all, Su Yue is not a police officer like her. If he really gets too much attention from the big shot, it is likely to be a bad thing.

Su Yue was also very surprised when he saw Liang Yuzhu waiting outside, while the middle-aged man on the side had already seen the relationship between the two and wisely did not disturb them at this time.

He smiled and said, "Since Xiao Liang is already waiting for you here, I won't disturb you. I'll leave first."

Su Yue accepted this well and nodded, "Okay, please take your time."

And when Liang Yuzhu heard this, she was also startled, feeling inexplicably guilty and awkwardly explained, "No, Director, we'll accompany..."

The middle-aged man directly reached out and interrupted Liang Yuzhu, "Alright, Xiao Liang, you don't need to say anything more, I have something to do in a while, so I'll leave first."

Liang Yuzhu had originally wanted to stop him, but since the middle-aged man said he had something to do, she naturally couldn't keep him there to explain at this time.

However, she still felt awkward, and for some reason, a strange happiness rose in her heart.

The middle-aged man had obviously misunderstood her relationship with Su Yue just now, but in fact, there was nothing going on between her and Su Yue, they were innocent.

However, the middle-aged man obviously didn't care what their relationship was, and didn't want to hear her explanation.

Although she knew that she really shouldn't bother her superior with her trivial matters, when she was misunderstood by her superior, Liang Yuzhu still subconsciously wanted to explain.

Who knew that her superior wasn't even willing to give her a chance to explain.

Seeing Liang Yuzhu's troubled expression, Su Yue thought that she didn't want people to misunderstand their relationship and also suggested.

"Captain Liang, do you not want people to spread rumors about you? The director left in a hurry just now, but I added his contact information. How about I go explain it to him again?"

After hearing Su Yue say this, Liang Yuzhu was even more startled.

She quickly shook her head, "No, Su Yue, please don't bother the director with such a trivial matter. I don't mind this."

Su Yue looked Liang Yuzhu up and down, clearly not believing her, "Really? Why do I feel like it's not the case?"

Liang Yuzhu choked, and nodded with a forced smile.

"You've really misunderstood. I didn't think that way. I was just surprised by how relaxed you were talking with the director just now, and felt a bit unexpected that you could become familiar with the director so quickly."

"As for the matter between you and me, I don't really mind it. As long as the two of us know that it's not like that, that's fine. I also hope you don't mind, those are just rumors."

Su Yue nodded, "Don't worry, I don't mind."

Seeing Su Yue so calm, Liang Yuzhu felt a little uncomfortable again.

However, she didn't let herself think too much and said, "Su Yue, there were some things I couldn't say in front of the director and the others just now, but are you really okay with being the bait? And about the information..."

"The director kept you just now to talk about this, right? Are you okay?"

Su Yue's steps, which were originally moving outwards, paused, and he stopped to look at Liang Yuzhu seriously.

Liang Yuzhu noticed Su Yue's movement and also stopped, looking at Su Yue in confusion.

Su Yue stared at Liang Yuzhu very seriously and said, "Captain Liang, do you trust me?"

Liang Yuzhu didn't know why Su Yue would suddenly talk about trust, feeling a little confused, but still nodded subconsciously, "Of course I trust you."

So much had happened between them, and Liang Yuzhu had bothered Su Yue so many times, so she naturally trusted him unconditionally now.

Su Yue nodded and said, "Then isn't that enough, Captain Liang?"

After speaking, he didn't care what Liang Yuzhu was overthinking about and walked out with his steps.

Liang Yuzhu stood there in a daze, her mind replaying Su Yue's words, still a little confused about what he meant.

However, soon, Liang Yuzhu also realized what Su Yue's words meant, and looking up, she saw that Su Yue was about to walk out of Police station gate, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Su Yue's words were already very clear, he was not afraid at all.

Although Su Yue said it so confidently and easily, Liang Yuzhu still couldn't help but worry about Su Yue.

However, since the person involved was really not in a hurry, it was useless for Liang Yuzhu to worry alone here, so all she could do was report to her superiors to arrange more people to protect Su Yue, and she would go too.

In fact, at first, the higher-ups did not agree to let Liang Yuzhu personally protect Su Yue, as Liang Yuzhu, as the Captain of the Criminal Investigation Team, had many things to be busy with.

Moreover, although the case had some leads now, it had not been solved yet, and they still needed to find more useful evidence at this time.

However, Liang Yuzhu insisted, and she also argued that the person who attacked Su Yue was likely the killer, and if they didn't catch the other party, then all their efforts for so long would be in vain.

What Liang Yuzhu said made a lot of sense, and in the end, the higher-ups couldn't stop her and agreed to her request.

Therefore, when Su Yue went out to the company early the next morning and met Liang Yuzhu waiting for him at the entrance, he was very surprised.

He was a little confused, "Captain Liang? What are you doing here?"

Liang Yuzhu was already very dissatisfied with Su Yue calling her Captain Liang, and since she could get him to change today, she didn't hesitate to say, "Su Yue, don't call me Captain Liang anymore."

Su Yue's face became even more confused.

What happened? Why couldn't he even call her that?

Liang Yuzhu saw Su Yue's reaction and knew that he had misunderstood, feeling even more stifled, but she still patiently explained, "I mean you can call me Liang Yuzhu, just like Lan Ziju."

Su Yue was silent for a while, looking at Liang Yuzhu with an exceptionally complex gaze.

If he could, Su Yue even wanted to step forward and check Liang Yuzhu's forehead to see if she had a fever.

Otherwise, how could he hear such absurd words from Liang Yuzhu's mouth? Were these words that the always cold Liang Yuzhu would say?

Seeing that Su Yue didn't answer, Liang Yuzhu felt a little disappointed. Seeing Su Yue's hesitation, she took a step back and said calmly, "It's okay if you don't call me Liang Yuzhu, then you can call me Xiao Liang."

"Don't call me Captain Liang anymore. I plan to protect you personally. If you call me Captain Liang, it might reveal my identity."

Hearing Liang Yuzhu say this, Su Yue finally understood why Liang Yuzhu had suddenly brought up this strange topic, and the confusion in his heart instantly disappeared.

Knowing the reason, Su Yue had no reservations and directly called out, "Okay, then I'll call you Liang Yuzhu from now on."
