Lu Yi reported a few addresses: “Let’s go in this order.”

He Si didn’t know what his lover was up to, and couldn’t guess for a while, but one thing he was very clear about was—listening to Lu Yi was always right.

“Okay, but can you speak slowly, let’s come one by one?” He also didn’t want to expose his shortcomings in remembering place names.

The reason why he chose science was because geography was too difficult to learn.

Although it was also difficult for him to get a high score in physical and chemical biology, the former was much more difficult in comparison.

Following Lu Yi’s instructions, he drove the car to an elementary school.

He Si looked at the school in front of him. The students were leaving the school together with their parents. No parents came to pick them up, so they went home with the school’s own team.

Looking at the lively scene in front of him, He Si was a little confused about what was going on: “What are we doing here, do you want me to relive the happy life of my childhood?”

Although he was a genuine local, he did not study in this school when he was a child, and with the passage of time, interesting things had long been buried in his memory and couldn´t be dug out.

And to be honest, he wasn’t really interested in what was going on in front of him.

Lu Yi’s expression was very calm: “Don’t worry, just be patient, okay?”

Soon the person he hoped the other party could see came out of the gate.

Almost as soon as that person appeared, the students present took a few steps back.

Most of the children were innocent, so in the face of the sudden appearance of a beggar-like figure, they clapped their hands and sang children’s songs that sounded a little scary and very pitiful.

After waiting for the students and their parents to be almost finished, Lu Yi asked He Si to drive the car into the school to see the glorious photo wall in the school.

Lu Yi asked He Si, “Have you read it?”

The latter hesitated, then nodded.

Lu Yi then asked him, “Did you see something?”

He Si had a very ashamed expression on his face, he didn’t see anything useful.

Looking at his expression, Lu Yi knew what He Si was thinking now, and he no longer sold off: “That beggar’s alma mater is this elementary school. A few months ago, he was an excellent student in this school, but now, he is a beggar that scares children”

He Si looked at the crazy-looking homeless man in surprise. The other party’s hair was disheveled and unkempt, but his clothes were kept neat.

As soon as Lu Yi finished speaking, a chubby middle-aged woman ran over and dragged the “tramp” out.

When she met the teacher on the way, she couldn’t stop apologizing: “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, this child has come to cause you trouble again.”

She looked tired. She used to have a very good appearance, but now there was a patch of indigo under her eyes, and she was obviously haggard because of her own child’s torment.

While dragging his child out, he encountered an acquaintance on the way, and the other party kept apologizing.

Lu Yi said: “He is a local. When he was a junior, he started his own business. Because when he was at home, he would be controlled by his parents, he rented a small house and started a public account.”

With no background, living alone, being an otaku, single, it could be said to be a very good target.

“In the hearts of his parents, he has always been a very good and never worried child, but after staying in the Xu family for a while, he has become like this.”

He had tried his best to fight for the rights and interests of these people, but not everyone could endure such a life without freedom, and everyone’s ability to bear was limited. Lu Yi was not an excellent psychiatrist, so he couldn´t wholeheartedly and unconditionally enlighten these people.

Not to mention whether these people would attack him as an accomplice of the Xu family, and even if not, their defensive attitude towards him was destined to not establish a deep relationship between them.

Of course, Lu Yi didn’t plan to establish any deep friendship with them. He didn’t know enough about the original characters of these people, and all the explanations he heard came from the other side’s stories.

People would subconsciously beautify themselves and hide their bad side.

Lu Yi’s deeper understanding of them all depended on his investigation based on the information provided by the other party after he came out.

He Si hesitated for a moment and asked him, “Did you not try to contact their parents when you came out of the Xu family?”

Lu Yi asked in return, “What’s the use of contacting them? Their family background is very ordinary. Knowing that their son is missing, they will only go crazy in a hurry.”

The Xu family was so big, it was too easy to hide a few people. Even if a crisis was created through public opinion, it was impossible for the police to search others casually.

In the absence of evidence, if you could just rely on public opinion, what should the rich family do?

Lu Yi was able to testify, but he was not harmed and was not able to record evidence.

After meeting He Si and being allowed to be free, he could no longer contact those people when he entered Xu’s house, and every time, all the equipment he carried that could record audio and video was removed.

The only time was when Lin Miao had an accident, and the person in charge of them panicked, thinking that he was familiar with Lin Miao before they let him approached him.

But at that time, the butler hadn’t forgotten to search him and not let him leave any images.

And among these people, some parents were in very bad health. If one was in a hurry and had a heart attack, or had an accident in a trance, wouldn’t he had created several tragedies?

Like the homeless man in front of him, he had already hired a psychiatrist to help him. Of course, through various means, he would disclose information to the family and let them come to the door on their own. They were also very vigilant and always thought they were liars.

In the case that the other’s family was not cooperating enough, it was very difficult for this child to get well.

He Si sighed heavily.

Lu Yi continued, “Let’s go to another place next.”

This time, they went to a neighborhood that looked quite old.

They were all small buildings with six or seven floors, and the highest was no more than ten floors. The community was quite small and relatively remote. Although it was divided into urban areas in terms of location, from the perspective of environment, it was a bit like a village in the city.

The exterior walls of the building were mottled, and when you push open the iron door downstairs and walk into the stairwell, there was a shady atmosphere, a bit like the old haunted house that often appears in ghost movies.

The old house had a total of six floors, and the sound insulation effect was not very good.

When they were on the fourth floor, they heard a roar, and when they reached the sixth floor, before they reached their destination, they heard the sound of things being thrown.

Lu Yi carried some nutritional supplements, went to the place where the voice came from, and knocked on the door: “Auntie, I’m Lu Yi.”

The door was opened from the inside, and a thin woman opened the door and forced a smile: “Mr. Lu, you came to see him again, and you brought something. It’s really expensive. Come in and sit and rest.”

He Si and Lu Yi put down the carton of milk in their hands.

Lu Yi refused and said, “It’s okay, I’ll come and see him, just to say a few words at the door, is he better?”

The woman said: “Fortunately, the frequency is lower than before. Thank you very much for the doctor you introduced.”

The woman had a band-aid on her forehead, and her arm was bruised from being hit by something.

She sighed: “I don’t dare to put any dangerous goods in the house. The cups, tableware, etc. have been replaced with plastic ones. Although it is a little bitter, as long as he can get better, I don’t think there is anything wrong.”

“It will get better.” Lu Yi said some words of comfort again, and handed a thick red envelope to it: “I can’t do anything, this money is what I mean as a friend.”

Anyway, he also wanted to do charity, and these families all need help.

The other party looked cramped and embarrassed: “How can it be done, the family can still afford this.”

Even a little nutritional supplement, with this money, she really couldn’t be thick-skinned.

“I don’t have a lot of heart, and I don’t have a lot of money. After thid, I may rarely come here.”

The woman wiped away her tears, her voice choked: “Thank you very much.”

After talking for a while, Lu Yi went down with He Si.

He Si’s mood was also heavy: “How many places are there next?”

Lu Yi glanced at his watch: “It’s almost time, let’s go back.”

These two people were considered to be in a relatively serious situation, bringing He Si to the was mainly because seeing them could cause more impact on He Si.

But seeing He Si’s depressed look, he couldn’t bear it. After all, the fault was not He Si: “The other few are better, but they had some influence.”

One was also a medical student. Because Lin Miao committed suicide and bleed a lot, he left the sequelae of dizziness, so he could only do other things.

He Si said: “As for the Xu family, you work hard. The He family and the Xu family have some cooperation. If the Xu family is affected, the He family will also be implicated. I will try to reduce the influence of the He family on you to zero.”

Lu Yi gave him a deep look: “I’m embarrassing you.”

He Si shook his head: “No, I can´t help relatives against reason, I should be on your side unconditionally, not to mention, reason is also on your side.”

In fact, even if reason was not on Lu Yi’s side, he would still also choose to help Lu Yi. After all, feelings are blind, as long as Lu Yi is happy.

Hey, but that kind of situation shouldn’t happen, who made his man so good, it was a moral benchmark.
