As soon as these words came out, Luo Lie's body stiffened. He looked at Lu Yu in front of him, his eyelids twitched hard, revealing a shocked expression.

If being listed as an assassination target means death, then I would probably have died dozens of times by now!

Luo Lie heard this sentence very clearly and also knew what Lu Yu wanted to convey!

Lu Yu's words were very clear, which means that Lu Yu had been listed as an assassination target more than once before!

Since he had a brief encounter with Lu Yu in Beigang City two years ago, Luo Lie knew nothing about Lu Yu's past. Now hearing this sentence, he was extremely shocked.

In the past two years, being listed as an assassination target more than once, what exactly had Lu Yu experienced during these two years, and why does he have such a strong aversion to official organizations?!

Thinking of this, a series of questions instantly surged into Luo Lie's mind!

"Lu Yu, you..."

At this moment, Luo Lie looked at Lu Yu in front of him with a tone full of shock.

Now, looking at Lu Yu in front of him, Luo Lie suddenly felt a sense of unreality in his heart. It was only under this feeling that Luo Lie suddenly realized that he couldn't see through Lu Yu at all!

Although he had many interactions with Lu Yu before and they even helped each other at times, it was only now that Luo Lie realized that he had never really seen the real Lu Yu!

Thinking about it, Luo Lie felt an immense shock!

He had been a member of Shadow Sword for years and could be considered an extremely excellent member. Generally speaking, no matter who it was, as long as Luo Lie had contact with the other party for a while, he could roughly analyze and understand them!

And now, looking at Lu Yu in front of him, Luo Lie suddenly realized that he could not make a rough analysis or understanding of Lu Yu at all!

Now, the impression of Lu Yu in Luo Lie's mind was one of cold detachment and another of strong capability. Apart from these two points, he could hardly gain more understanding about Lu Yu!

It was only now that Luo Lie realized the scariness of Lu Yu, which was that unless he wanted to, no one could truly understand him!

Seeing the shocked expression on Luo Lie's face, Lu Yu smiled slightly. Just as he was about to say something, the phone on the security department's desk suddenly rang!

Buzz!

In an instant, the sound of the phone echoed in the quiet security department, seeming extremely abrupt and somewhat piercing!

Hearing the phone's sound, Lu Yu's heart skipped slightly. He immediately picked up the phone, put it to his ear, and said, "Hello?"

"Come to my office at once; I have something to discuss with you."

As soon as Lu Yu spoke, Leng Qingqiu's voice immediately came through the phone, sounding quite serious, obviously about some urgent matter.

"I'll be right there."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu said calmly, his words carrying a trace of composure.

After saying that, Lu Yu hung up the phone. He looked at Luo Lie opposite him, smiled slightly, and said, "Though I'd like to chat with you for a while longer, I have to get back to work now."

In his speech, Lu Yu's tone was detached, giving an impression of an indifferent demeanor.

"It's just as well, I need to get back to work too,"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Luo Lie tactfully said, "Group Leader Qin is coming tomorrow, and I have a lot of work to do here as well."

"In that case, see you tomorrow then."

Hearing Luo Lie's words, Lu Yu smiled slightly and said, "Remember to pass on my words to Group Leader Qin. If he's coming tomorrow, he should keep a low profile; otherwise, he shouldn't appear at Victory Group."

"No problem."

Upon hearing this, Luo Lie nodded, stood up, and said to Lu Yu, "I believe Group Leader Qin will agree."

"That's good then!"

Hearing Luo Lie's words, Lu Yu smiled slightly, then stepped out of the security department, entered the elevator of Victory Group, and went directly to the top-floor CEO's office.

...

Upon reaching the top floor of Victory Group, just as he entered Leng Qingqiu's office, Lu Yu saw two police officers in uniform, with serious expressions, sitting in Leng Qingqiu's office. Clearly, something was up.

Seeing these two officers, Lu Yu's heart skipped slightly, and a trace of surprise appeared in his eyes.

He had just seen off Luo Lie, and now encountered two police officers. It seemed something must have happened.

"These two gentlemen, this is my fiancé, Lu Yu. It was he who attended the auction with me last night. You can ask him for the details."

Seeing Lu Yu appear in her office, Leng Qingqiu said to the two police officers with a tone full of detachment.

Hearing Leng Qingqiu's words, the two officers nodded, then looked at Lu Yu in front of them, stood up, saluted, and said, "Hello Mr. Lu, we are detectives from the third branch of the Lin'an City Police Department. We have a few questions about last night's auction and would appreciate your cooperation."

Lin'an City Police Department, third branch?

Hearing these officers speak, Lu Yu was slightly taken aback and immediately realized that the two officers in front of him were not subordinates of Meng Yue.

"I see, of course, I am willing to cooperate with your investigation,"

Hearing the police officers, Lu Yu smiled slightly and said, "But before that, could you tell me what exactly happened?"

Since these officers were here to inquire about the auction, this indicated that there must have been some incident after the auction ended last night!

"It's like this,"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, the two officers exchanged a glance, then nodded and said, "We just received a report that Mr. Li Moxuan, the owner of the Ink Pavilion auction house in Lin'an City, has mysteriously disappeared. There are serious signs of a fight at the scene, so we want to find out if Boss Li behaved abnormally during yesterday's auction."

In their words, the tone of these officers was low and carried a sense of seriousness, appearing very earnest: "We have already dispatched a large number of police officers to investigate. We hope Mr. Lu will cooperate with our investigation."

Li Moxuan is missing!?

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu's eyelids twitched slightly, and a trace of surprise appeared in his eyes. He looked at the two officers in front of him, appearing somewhat unexpected.

Even he hadn't expected this kind of situation to occur now!

Although he knew that the Dongdao Group would take actions to investigate the origin of the Rope-Curled Sword, he hadn't anticipated that they would employ such extreme methods!
