In order to investigate the origin of the Rope-Curled Sword, they resorted to kidnapping the boss of the auction house. Although this method was brutal and extreme, it's undeniably effective!

After all, only the boss of the auction house knows the real information about each seller!

Thinking of this, a gleam of discernment flickered in Lu Yu's eyes. He came back to his senses, looked at the two policemen in front of him, smiled slightly, and said, "So that's it. May I ask what you want to know? I'll do my best to cooperate!"

Even though there was a ninety percent chance that this matter was orchestrated by the Dongdao Group, Lu Yu was very clear now that he couldn't explain everything to the police due to many underlying details.

After all, once too many details get the police involved, it often backfires!

"That's how it is, Mr. Lu,"

Upon hearing Lu Yu speak, the two policemen said, "Did Boss Li exhibit any abnormal behavior at the auction last night?"

One of the policemen asked Lu Yu while the other was busy taking notes, demonstrating serious diligence.

"No, Boss Li's behavior was completely normal last night, no anomalies at all. My fiancée can vouch for this!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu nodded, his words full of calmness.

As soon as Lu Yu said these words, the two policemen glanced at each other, then turned to Lu Yu and asked, "Since that's the case, Mr. Lu, please recall if Boss Li encountered any intense conflicts with anyone last night?"

The police had a very clear line of thought, cutting straight to the point, without any hesitation, after laying the groundwork with the previous question.

"Yes!"

At these words from the police, Lu Yu spoke up, his face showing a look of significant seriousness, "Last night, Boss Li did have a heated conflict with someone!"

Between his words, the corners of Lu Yu's mouth revealed a barely noticeable smile, now deliberately steering the police's attention towards the Dongdao Group.

"Oh?"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, the two policemen instantly became interested. At this moment, they sat upright and said, "Could you tell us more about the nature of this conflict, Mr. Lu? Your testimony could greatly assist us in finding Boss Li!"

Between their words, the tone of the two policemen noticeably quickened.

After all, the mysterious disappearance of the leader in Lin'an City's antique auction industry added heavy pressure on them, and they wanted to solve the case as soon as possible.

"Here's how it was,"

Looking at the policemen in front of him, Lu Yu smiled slightly, then spoke up, "Last night, at the auction, Mr. Li Moxuan had a very heated conflict with Mr. Zhou Huchen, the president of the Dongdao Group. Many people present last night can attest to this."

Although Lu Yu did not yet know what family was hiding behind the Dongdao Group, he certainly wouldn't miss the chance to stir up trouble for the Dongdao Group!

Moreover, Lu Yu was merely stating a fact: there was indeed a very heated conflict between Zhou Huchen and Li Moxuan last night!

Zhou Huchen's behavior of causing a scene in front of everyone last night was indeed intense enough to be considered a fierce conflict!

As soon as Lu Yu said this, the two policemen's expressions slightly changed, immediately becoming more alert. They looked at Lu Yu and said, "Mr. Lu, please describe the events in detail. This information could be very helpful in locating Mr. Li Moxuan!"

"No problem,"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu smiled slightly, recounting everything that happened last night to the police, including the detail about Zhou Huchen buying the Rope-Curled Sword at twenty times its price.

While Lu Yu was speaking with the police, Leng Qingqiu's gaze never left him, not for a single moment.

Now, although the two policemen couldn't feel it, Leng Qingqiu could clearly perceive that Lu Yu was guiding their attention, consciously or unconsciously, toward the Dongdao Group!

Although on the surface, Lu Yu was honestly recounting last night's events to the two policemen, all his emphasis was on the Dongdao Group!

"Lu Yu, what exactly are you trying to do?"

Watching Lu Yu calmly narrate last night's events, a trace of doubt arose in Leng Qingqiu's heart.

At this moment, watching Lu Yu, the doubts in Leng Qingqiu's heart grew stronger.

"According to what you're saying, Mr. Zhou Huchen behaved disrespectfully at the auction last night, then they placed a bet, after which Mr. Zhou bought an ancient sword worth fifteen million yuan for twenty times its price. Is that correct?"

A few moments later, after hearing Lu Yu's words, the policeman responsible for recording looked at Lu Yu and asked, his voice carrying a tone of seriousness.

"That's right!"

Hearing the police inquiry, Lu Yu's face revealed a smile, and he said, "That's roughly how it went. As for the rest, I don't know. But putting up twenty times the price for a sword without reason would make anyone furious, right? Besides, Mr. Zhou seems to be someone with a rather fiery temper."

Between his words, Lu Yu's tone was subtle, subtly but consistently guiding the policemen's thinking towards Zhou Hu Chen.

Now, Lu Yu's goal was to direct the police's attention to the Dongdao Group, using the police's power to force whoever was truly running the Dongdao Group behind Zhou Huchen to show up!

Hearing Lu Yu's words, the two policemen exchanged glances and smiled slightly. They looked at Lu Yu and said, "Mr. Lu, thank you very much. Your information is extremely valuable. We will pursue this lead diligently to find Mr. Li. We appreciate your cooperation!"

"You're very welcome. Helping the police solve a case is my duty,"

Looking at the two policemen, Lu Yu smiled slightly, his words filled with good humor, his demeanor poised and elegant, giving off a very fitting impression.

"If that's the case, we will take our leave now. Once again, thank you both for your cooperation."

Saying this, the two policemen saluted Lu Yu and Leng Qingqiu, then walked out of Leng Qingqiu's office, entered the elevator, and headed straight to the Victory Group's lobby.

"Impressive rhetoric,"

Watching the two policemen leave, Leng Qingqiu looked at Lu Yu and said, "Your words seem to merely answer questions, but between the lines, you're directing the clues toward the Dongdao Group. Lu Yu, what exactly are you trying to do?"
