Chapter 1072: Can’t Hide This Identity Anymore…
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Su Tinglan was stunned, then revealed an incredulous expression.
She was the hottest detective novel writer, Jaylin. He had also heard from Young Master Yi that she worked at the research institute. However, she was actually teaching at the academy. How many identities did she have? She had multiple roles.
Meanwhile, he was only working in the Lanca Police Department but he already felt a little overwhelmed.
He was ashamed.
“Since you two know each other, you can ask me any questions you have,” Su Tinglan said solemnly. Since the student she previously taught had gone missing, she would probably be in a very somber mood, right?!!
However, he didn’t see much of an expression on Sheng Yang’s face. She was as quiet as ever.
“It’s alright.” Sheng Yang’s eyes were calm because she could already see Lan Yu walking in her direction dejectedly with his school bag.
“Miss Sheng!” As soon as he saw Sheng Yang, the light in Lan Yu’s eyes lit up for a moment before extinguishing again.
Sheng Yang could tell that something was wrong with him, but she didn’t say anything. She found a small cafe near the academy and prepared to have a chat with him.
Although it was a milk tea shop, Sheng Yang ordered a cup of black coffee that was sugar-free and milk-free. She had never liked to drink sweet things. They were damaging to neurons. However, because her mother thought that she liked them, she would drink just a little.
She ordered a cup of sweet yam milk tea for Lan Yu. At this moment, he probably needed some sugar to regulate his low spirits.
As expected… Lan Yu drank some of the warm and sweet drink and he felt a little better. He said solemnly, “Miss Sheng, I’m preparing to drop out.”
There was no such thing as a leave of absence at Lanca Academy. No matter how many people tried, they could not get it, so they could only drop out.
Sheng Yang pondered for a moment and looked up. “Does your brother know?”
Lan Ran had been lying low. Although she did not know the reason, she knew that the only person who could make him pay such a price while putting his heart and soul into it was his younger brother.
Lan Yu was silent for a moment. “He knows. He doesn’t agree.”
“So, why do you still want to drop out?”
Lan Yu seemed to find it a little difficult to speak. After a while, he said, “I want to investigate Ding Xing’s disappearance. No matter what grudge I had against him before, I can’t tolerate a living person suddenly disappearing into thin air!”
With that, he hammered the table hard, unable to conceal his anger.
In the past, whenever he heard that someone had gone missing, he would feel pity and sympathy for them, but he would not experience that strong of an emotion. However, this time, the missing person was someone he knew well. He was terrified and angry!
Ding Xing had gone missing, and the class was divided into two factions. One faction was heartbroken over the disappearance of their classmate, while the other felt that Ding Xing had done a lot of excessive things, so he deserved to go missing.
However, Lan Yu did not think so. Ding Xing changed in the end. Moreover, he felt that he and Ding Xing had always been in a love-hate relationship. If not for Ding Xing’s ridicule, he would not have gotten to where he was today!
In short, he couldn’t stand by and do nothing.
“Miss Sheng, I’m not like you. If I want to investigate, I probably won’t be able to keep up with my studies…”
Sheng Yang didn’t try to persuade him. “Let’s go.”
“Where are we going?”
“To your house.”
“To my house?” Lan Yu was puzzled.
Sheng Yang’s gaze was deep. If Lan Ran was really doing this for his brother’s good, then it was time to expose some things…
