Chapter 175 Accident
"...Something's happened!" Chu Zhu's expression finally changed. His mind raced, and he dialed Lu Muxue's number again.

When he found that he couldn't get through either, he took a deep breath and dialed Lu Jin's number with a serious expression.

After a few breaths, the call was answered, but Lu Jin's voice on the other end sounded exhausted: "What do you want?"

"What happened?" Chu Zhu asked seriously. "I mean Madam Xue Qian and Lu Muxue."

After a brief silence...

"...Madam is dead! Mu Xue is currently in the hospital undergoing emergency treatment." Lu Jin forcibly suppressed the turbulent emotions surging within him and spoke in a slightly hoarse voice.

Chu Zhu: "?"

"Who did it? Or was it an accident?" Chu Zhu was genuinely shocked.

Who is Lu Jin? He is a true figure standing at the top of Jinghai. Even in the entire Daqian, he is a top giant who is only one step away from becoming a regional ambassador.

Such a wife and daughter, one dead and the other seriously injured?

This is absolutely a fight to the death! It's like they're going to cause a huge uproar.

"Perhaps it could be called an accident!" Lu Jin's voice was almost squeezed out from between her teeth.

After a brief silence, Chu Zhu said softly, "I hope you can explain the situation in detail! You should understand that I have some information... which might be able to help you?"

Lu Jin remained silent for a full minute before saying, "Why don't you come to Jinghai City First Hospital? Or, I can send someone to pick you up?"

"I'll go by myself."

……

First District, Jinghai City First Hospital.

Chu Zhu looked at the seven-story building in front of her. In the real world, this building could only be considered short... or rather, a tenement building! However, in Jinghai City, it could definitely be called a crane standing among chickens.

Soon, Chu Zhu found Secretary Song waiting at the entrance and followed her into the hospital.

Rescue outdoor.

Lu Jin sat quietly in the chair, his back hunched, staring at the floor with a blank expression.

All around were medical department directors in white coats. They forced smiles and offered only perfunctory words of comfort.

"Please rest assured that our First Hospital possesses the most advanced ancient artifact treatment equipment in the country."

"Yes, yes! And the doctor who performed the surgery this time is the most outstanding doctor... and all the medicines used are divine medicines found in ancient ruins!"

"Miss Lu, Miss Lu is blessed with good fortune..."

Lu Jin simply nodded without saying anything.

Suddenly realizing something, he looked up and glanced at Chu Zhu, who had just entered. "You're here?"

"Tell me about it." Chu Zhu sat down directly next to Lu Jin. He calmly glanced at the doctors and department heads surrounding them, who were respectful, awe-inspiring, and somewhat panicked.

The scene fell silent.

These doctors and department heads were genuinely frightened. In their eyes, Lu Jin, though seemingly calm, was actually like a raging lion, ready to unleash his fury at any moment…

Actually, they didn't want to talk awkwardly here at all... they were forced to come by the dean!

As for why the dean isn't here... the dean simply wouldn't dare to be here!

After all, if the person recovers in the end, then there's still room for negotiation... but what if they die! For Governor Lu, who is also experiencing the pain of losing his wife and daughter... this is terrifying!

The hospital director knows very well what a medical dispute is like... If Lu Zhizheng were to cause a medical dispute, he could really skin a bunch of people alive.

Under these circumstances, how dare these people be so presumptuous? And... Governor Lu actually tacitly approved of their attitude!

“At eight o’clock, Madam and Mu Xue had breakfast at Guangnan Morning Tea on Huangpu Street in the First District, and were about to drive out. Then, for some reason…” Lu Jin paused slightly, then said, “There was a thug hiding in the trunk of the car, and then…” Lu Jin’s eyes were cold, “It seems like a simple accident… but I have a feeling that things are not that simple!”

Huangpu Street is the wealthy street in District 1.

The number of surveillance cameras and patrol officers in the surrounding area was far greater than imagined.

In this situation, how could the murderer inexplicably hide in the trunk of a sports car in an underground parking garage?
This is beyond outrageous...

Lu Jin almost instinctively concluded that someone was plotting against him.

suddenly.

A cacophony of noise arose.

A man in a sharp suit stormed in, his face contorted with rage, and yelled, "You must save my niece... If she dies, you can't afford the consequences. I'll take all of you..."

"Enough!" Lu Jin shouted sharply, his emotions losing control for the first time.

Taking several deep breaths, he stared coldly at the man who had stormed in: "Xue Fusheng, this isn't Tianjing. Don't put on airs like you're some kind of high and mighty Second Master Xue! Who do you think you are? Threatening the doctor treating Xiaoxue while she was being resuscitated? Who are you giving that attitude to!"

"Lu Jin!" Xue Fusheng gritted her teeth, staring intently at Lu Jin: "Who do you think is to blame for this? If my sister hadn't married you and come to this wretched Jinghai, this would never have happened in Tianjing... No! Maybe it's because of you that we're implicated! That's why..."

Chu Zhu calmly observed the two arguing. In his previous reset timelines, he naturally knew Xue Fusheng—

This younger brother of Madam Xue is arrogant and disdainful, a typical spoiled brat... Of course, although he seems brainless, he has a very good relationship with Lu Muxue and also loves martial arts novels very much, one could even say...

Lu Muxue was able to access those books because of him.

Although Chu Zhu had always found one thing strange... how exactly did this person manage to both mock the brainless villains in the novel "The Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain," who seemed to be rushing to be slapped in the face by the protagonist, and do the same brainless things himself?

The moment he walked in, the moment he opened his mouth, the smell...

Good heavens! You're practically a one-to-one replica of the villain in the novel you're mocking...

"No way, are you deliberately trying to imitate a villain?" Chu Zhu thought there were just too many flaws. Of course, while this guy did act like a brainless villain... he also claimed to have learned the loyalty from novels... although Chu Zhu thought it was a gangster version of loyalty no matter how she looked at it.

From the perspective of a second-generation rich kid, this person is actually quite complicated!
"Alright." Chu Zhu interrupted Xue Fusheng. He was too lazy to watch this second-generation member of the Xue family perform such brainless actions that even he himself mocked. Before Xue Fusheng could transfer his anger to himself, he turned to ask.

"I'll repeat myself! Eight o'clock, Guangnan Dim Sum on Huangpu Street, underground parking garage? Do you have more specific details about the location of the accident? Location!"

Lu Jin gave Chu Zhu a deep look and said, "The exact time of the accident was 8:27, and the location was Nanyang Bridge..."

"If I remember correctly, the Nanyang River that Nanyang Bridge spans should be one of the dividing lines between the second and third districts, right?" Chu Zhu frowned. Are you kidding me? How could the location of the accident change so drastically all of a sudden? It's gone directly from the first district to here!

“That’s how it is! I know what you mean,” Lu Jin said softly, “but the problem is, the car was speeding the whole time. Thinking about it, the only time we could have gotten into the car was in the underground parking garage of Guangnan Morning Tea!”

After a brief pause, Lu Jin continued, "Even earlier, they drove out of the house... I don't believe that the guards inside the compound would allow such a thug to sneak up here?"

"So, has the murderer been caught? Have any useful information been extracted from him?" Chu Zhu pondered.

"Nothing yet... The situation was that the murderer tried to force the lady to drive somewhere else. Then, the lady refused to yield and drove the car directly into a bridge pier, causing the car to explode! However, the murderer's body was not found in the car! He must have jumped into the river," Lu Jin said coldly. "Right now, Li Kang's team is searching the river!"

"I roughly understand!" Chu Zhu's eye twitched, and he hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped. Was Madam Xue really determined to die rather than submit? From what he heard, it seemed like... Madam Xue wanted to drive the thugs off the road, or do something else?

After all, he knew Madam Xue's car; it was an electric convertible sports car. With the seatbelt fastened, a forceful jerk could potentially throw the assailant off... However, the driving skills Madam Xue displayed were truly...

No wonder Lu Jin initially called it an accident. The murderer may not have intended to kill the Lu family mother and daughter; they might have had some other purpose... It's just that things took an unexpected turn...

Chu Zhu forcibly dismissed her presumptuous thoughts, and after organizing the known information, she was immediately somewhat surprised. Li Kang still hasn't found the murderer... Could it be a superhuman?
If that's the case, then the situation seems to have become more complicated. Is it a wild superhuman, or...?

Xue Fusheng vaguely realized something at this moment, and looked at Chu Zhu with some suspicion, "You, you are, wait, could you be that person surnamed Zhu..."

Before Xue Fusheng could finish speaking, Chu Zhu bit down on the poison at the root of her teeth without hesitation.

In the next instant, time reversed!
