Hearing Meng Yue's question, Lu Yu couldn't help but be slightly startled; he hadn't expected that Meng Yue still remembered this matter.

Initially, Lu Yu said he'd tell Meng Yue the reason in the evening, but it was just a casual remark. After all, Zhou Yuanxing was so afraid of him because Zhou Yuanxing had previously seen his method towards Marlo at the Bihaus Club!

Such methods, Lu Yu could use quite unscrupulously in front of people like Yunting, but he absolutely couldn't tell Meng Yue about them!

After all, Meng Yue was the captain of the LA City criminal police team; if he revealed the details to her, the consequences would be spectacular!

Originally, Lu Yu thought that after a day of investigation, Meng Yue would forget about this matter, but unexpectedly, she remembered it at this moment.

Now, hearing Meng Yue's question, Lu Yu was at a loss for how to answer.

"Hurry up, you promised me in the morning you'd tell me, don't back out now!"

Seeing Lu Yu's hesitant expression, Meng Yue said with a laugh. She was extremely curious about how Lu Yu made Zhou Yuanxing, who feared no police, so obedient.

"Well..."

Hearing Meng Yue's words, Lu Yu hesitated slightly, his mind turned slightly, and then he said, "Actually, Yunting and I are friends, and Zhou Yuanxing is Yunting's little brother, so he naturally listens to me."

With no other choice, Lu Yu could only evade the question with such a light answer.

After all, admitting he was friends with Yunting was better than exposing his other secrets!

"You're friends with Yunting!?"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Meng Yue's voice rose instantly. Looking at Lu Yu, she said with surprise, "Are you kidding? Do you know what Yunting does?"

Now, Meng Yue was extremely shocked by Lu Yu's words. The fact that the head of the biggest underground organization in LA City, the Celestial Wolf Association, Yunting, was friends with Lu Yu!

This indeed surprised Meng Yue, the captain of the criminal police team.

"Of course I know."

Lu Yu nodded at Meng Yue's words, then said, "He's the boss of the Celestial Wolf Association."

"And you still befriend him!"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Meng Yue's tone rose a few notches. She said, "The Celestial Wolf Association is the largest underground group in LA City. Although they've gradually turned legitimate over the years, Yunting is still a very dangerous person. Being friends with him is very dangerous!"

Due to her profession, Meng Yue had a very strong reaction to the name Yunting, and one could sense a touch of concern in her words.

Although Yunting's identity had gradually become legitimate, because of the Celestial Wolf Association, Meng Yue still had deep misgivings about him.

Feeling the concern in Meng Yue's words, Lu Yu's heart warmed, and he smiled, saying, "Don't worry, my relationship with him is very superficial, and he definitely won't give me any trouble."

In his words, there was a light, smiling tone.

In reality, since most things Lu Yu did were in secret, this led to Meng Yue being unaware of many things. If Meng Yue knew what Lu Yu was doing, she wouldn't be worried at all!

After all, let's not mention other things; the car she's sitting in was specifically bought by Yunting to honor Lu Yu!

"Alright, I won't ask how you guys met anymore."

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Meng Yue lightly shook her head, looked at Lu Yu, and said, "Yunting has a bit of a dark background. It's dangerous for us to deal with him, so in the future, you should interact with him less."

"Understood!"

Hearing Meng Yue's words, Lu Yu nodded seriously and said, "I understand, I will follow Captain Meng's instructions and try to have less contact with Yunting in the future!"

Lu Yu's words were serious and seemed very earnest.

Hehe!

Seeing Lu Yu's way of speaking, Meng Yue laughed, her face showing a trace of loveliness, and said, "Alright, it's getting late, let's head back quickly."

"No problem."

Hearing Meng Yue's words, Lu Yu smiled slightly, then stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the community where he lived.

...

A moment later, after driving back to his community, Lu Yu smiled slightly as Meng Yue went home and slowly turned back to his place.

As soon as he entered, looking at the familiar living room, Lu Yu shook his head, intending to go straight to bed.

But at this moment, a sharp ringtone from his phone rang in Lu Yu's ear.

Hearing the ringtone, Lu Yu frowned slightly, with a hint of puzzlement on his face.

Who would be calling him at this time?

Thinking of this, Lu Yu took out his phone and looked at the screen, seeing the name displayed: Luo Lie!

Seeing this name, Lu Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, then a cunning smile appeared on his face.

The last time he called Luo Lie was less than twenty-four hours ago, and now Luo Lie was calling him. Could it be that the matter he entrusted to him had made progress?

Thinking of this, a slight curve appeared at the corner of Lu Yu's mouth. He pressed the call button and said, "What's the matter?"

"I've investigated what you asked me to through Shadow Sword's internal data."

As soon as the call connected, Luo Lie got straight to the point without any delay, showing the demeanor of a soldier.

"Oh?"

Hearing Luo Lie's words, Lu Yu raised an eyebrow and said, "What's the result?"

In his words, Lu Yu expressed a hint of curiosity, as he wanted to know the origin of this so-called Ghost!

"This forbidden substance has a big background, which can't be explained over the phone."

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Luo Lie's voice continued, "Let's find a place to meet tomorrow to discuss it. I'll give you all the investigation results then."

In his words, Luo Lie's tone carried a hint of gravity, apparently finding the matter quite troublesome!

"No problem."

Hearing Luo Lie's words, Lu Yu's tone was very deep, and he said, "Tomorrow morning, I'll find a bar to wait for you. Once we meet, we can discuss this matter!"

In his words, Lu Yu spoke quite steadily. Although he didn't like the official side, he had to admit that their investigation speed was indeed fast!

Thinking of this, Lu Yu hung up the phone, his eyes showing a hint of contemplation.

He now also wanted to know the true origin of this Ghost!
