Chapter 400: A Photograph

Su Marie didn't care about admiring the sleeping picture of the beautiful man, so she hurriedly rushed to the window, opened all the curtains with a 'bang', and opened the window again to let in the morning breeze outside.

Leo had already opened her eyes when she made the first sound, and when she woke up, he was slightly stunned for a second to see Su Marie.

"Are you...... Lu Yao's ......"

"That's right, I'm her agent, and I'll accompany her to see you."

Sumarie introduced herself very quickly, and then pointed in the direction of the door.

Leo followed her fingers in confusion and turned her head, and at a glance saw Lu Yao who was leaning on the door frame and making a disgust.

He immediately bounced up from the sofa, brushed his messy hair with both hands, and covered his face that had become haggard from staying up late, as if he didn't want Lu Yao to see him look so embarrassed.

Lu Yao took a few breaths before stepping forward.

"Leo, are you alright?"

Leo covered his face a little embarrassed, "Well, I'm fine, sorry, I'm going to change my clothes." ”

With that, he hurried into the bedroom next to him.

Lu Yao and Su Marie glanced at each other, but neither spoke.

It didn't take long for Leo to walk out of the bedroom refreshed, he took a shower, changed into casual clothes, and finally regained a bit of supermodel temperament.

Lu Yao was about to open his mouth to ask what happened to Old Pete, but at this moment, there was another knock on the door.

Leo walked to the door and looked out through the cat's eye, and instantly turned back to Lu Yao and winked.

"It's the police, Lu Yao, you go to my room and avoid it?"

Lu Yao looked at Su Marie with some suspicion, and Su Marie muttered, "You're here to make a record, right?" Okay, hurry up, avoid it. ”

With that, she pulled Lu Yao into Leo's room.

As soon as the door closed, Leo opened the door outside.

Leo leaned against the crack in the door, and Lu Yao heard the voices of several police officers making routine introductions outside, and then Leo started talking to them in the living room.

Su Marie guessed correctly, this was indeed a transcript, and the questions asked by the police were almost the ones that Lu Yao didn't have time to ask.

She listened to Leo reminisce intermittently, and she probably figured out what had happened last night.

It turned out that just yesterday afternoon, after she met with Old Pete, Leo and Tang Lan also returned to the hotel after getting together. The two father and son didn't know what they were talking about, and finally broke up unhappily, and then Leo went out to make an appointment with Bai Xue, and then Lu Yao also knew about the later things.

It's just strange that soon after the old Pete also left the hotel, a person didn't know who to go to, or what to do, in short, when the taxi drove to the cross-sea bridge, there was a sudden car accident, and the whole car was stuck in the heart of the river.

The car has not yet been recovered, and it is not known how many people were on it at that time.

It took about twenty minutes for the police to finish taking notes, and after Lu Yao heard the sound of the door closing outside.

When she was sure that it was completely quiet outside, she pushed open the bedroom door and returned to the living room.

Leo was sitting on the couch with his head in his hands, and he just looked up at her.

"Leo, don't worry, maybe things will turn around......"

Lu Yao sat lightly opposite him, at this time, she didn't know what to say to comfort him, bad luck came, and any language was pale and meaningless.

Su Marie sat down beside her and nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, the police haven't decided yet, maybe the matter is not as serious as we thought." ”

Leo looked up at them and smiled wryly, "You don't have to comfort me, I understand how serious things are. ”

As soon as he said this, Lu Yao and Su Marie were immediately embarrassed to talk nonsense, and they lowered their heads one after another.

After a while, Leo suddenly said again, "Lu Yao, can you help me pack some things?" ”

Lu Yao nodded without thinking, "Okay, what's it?" ”

Leo pointed to the room behind him, "It's my dad's personal belongings, I want to tidy them up, maybe the police can use them." ”

"Okay, let's get started now." As soon as Lu Yao heard this, she immediately bounced up from the sofa.

Leo gave an 'um' and led her into old Pete's room.

This room is exactly the same as the layout on Leo's side, Old Pete doesn't have many things, and it all adds up to one suitcase.

Leo rummaged through the cabinet as soon as he entered, and when Lu Yao saw this, he also carefully groped in old Pete's bed.

In fact, she didn't know what to look for, as long as it was the object she saw with her eyes, she had to put it all in the center of the bed.

Leo found nothing in the cabinet, and his expression became very depressed again, and when Lu Yao saw this, he couldn't help but enlighten him again.

"Leo, don't be like that, be strong."

"Like them, you thought it was just an accident, right?"

Leo stopped rummaging and sat down on the bed, his expression very depressed, "But I don't think it's that simple, my father is probably retaliated against, or murdered." ”

Lu Yao was puzzled, "Why are you so suspicious?" Could it be that Mr. Pitt has some enemies here? ”

Leo shook his head, "It's a long story, and I don't know the details, but that's my guess, I don't believe it, it was just an accident last night." ”

Lu Yao frowned and looked at him, and for a while he didn't know if what he said was true or not.

The two were silent for a moment, and when Lu Yao withdrew his gaze from Leo's face, his gaze was suddenly inadvertently caught by an object in the crack of the bed.

She subconsciously leaned over and struggled to reach her arm into the gap.

"What did you find?" Leo asked next to him.

Lu Yao didn't speak, but by feeling, he carefully hooked the object out of the tiny crack with his fingertips.

"It's a photo......"

As Lu Yao spoke, he looked at the old Pete in the photo and the smiling woman beside him.

Hey? Isn't this the female colleague of Mr. Pitt who died in the line of duty many years ago?

Lu Yao was about to speak, but Leo had already reached out and snatched the photo away.

Without thinking about it, he raised his hand and threw the picture into the trash can in the corner.

"Eh, what are you doing?"

Lu Yao wanted to stop him, but his movements were still a step slower, and the photo had already fallen into the trash.

Leo's expression was a little ruthless, "It's all this woman, if it weren't for her, how could there be these things now." ”

"This ...... Something to do with her? But hasn't she been dead for twenty years? Lu Yao was a little suspicious and a little surprised.

"Yes, a woman who has been dead for twenty years, why can't he let go?"

Leo let out a long sigh as if talking to himself, holding his head in his hands.

Seeing this, Lu Yao also sighed lightly, paused, and walked to the end of the bed again and picked up the photo from the trash can.

"Leo, I know you're sad and anxious right now, but you can't be impulsive, Mr. Pete's life and death are uncertain, you have to be strong." After saying that, she handed him the photo again, "This is your father's treasured thing, keep it." ”

"No, I'll give it to you!"

Leo smiled self-deprecatingly, his face full of bitterness.

Lu Yao was a little at a loss, "Send me?" ”

"Yes, for you, didn't my father always say that you are like an old friend of his, in fact, the old friend he said is the woman in the photo, you are quite special to him, if he really can't come back, maybe he should also agree with my approach."

"But......" Lu Yao hesitated.

"It's okay, it's just a photo, if you don't want it, you just lose it." Leo waved his hand, but he didn't care.

So, after being silent for a minute, Lu Yao still chose to put the photo in her bag.
