Chapter 448 Lu Yao Meets Lin Dong

Lu Yao circled around and, seeing that no one was following him, returned to the police compound through the back gate of the police station.

Mei Ping sent someone to bring him in.

The message has been sent to Shi Shouyin, and Lin Dong's side also needs to put in some effort.

If he can testify in court, we won't have to go through all that trouble; we can just arrest him directly.

However, since it's unclear where the information came from, Lu Yao cannot openly meet with Lin Dong.

So Mei Ping brought Lu Yao back, prepared a police uniform for him, and had him put on makeup before going to Da Bei Prison with her.

The jeep exited the Jiangzhou North Ring Road.

It's a ten-minute walk to Dabei Prison.

The prison is a drab, old Japanese-style building.

The red brick walls were blackened by coal smoke, and cement guard towers stood at the four corners.

It is said that before liberation, this place was a prisoner-of-war camp, and after renovation, it became the largest prison in Jiangzhou City.

The iron gate was a heavy, dark green, and it made a dull creaking sound when pushed open.

The guards led Mei Ping and Lu Yao into the inner part of the prison.

Mei Ping went to the reception room to wait.

Lu Yao followed the guard inside.

Inside the door was a narrow, long passageway with a dilapidated, uneven cement floor.

The wall was half painted green, above which was a mottled whitewash, with slogans written in red paint:

"We must fight selfishness and criticize revisionism." "Never forget class struggle."

The iron doors of the cells on both sides were tightly closed, with only a small peephole at eye level.

The air smelled musty, like bleach, and there was a lingering chill.

The fluorescent tubes buzzed overhead, illuminating the backs of several figures wearing blue cotton-padded jackets and with shaved heads, who were slowly moving along the wall.

Behind him followed a guard carrying a baton.

After passing through two iron gates, we arrived at a small corridor.

At the end of the corridor was the prison where Lin Dong was held.

The corridors here twist and turn, and if no one is there to guide you, you won't be able to find your way out, even if you are allowed to leave, let alone the iron gates.

The iron gate opened.

The space inside is not large.

There's not much space left after removing an iron bed.

The guard opened the door and then left.

Only Lu Yao was at the door.

His shadow was cast into the light, and the person on the bed stirred.

With difficulty, he lifted half of his body and looked towards the door.

Backlit, he couldn't see Lu Yao's face clearly.

But Lu Yao saw it clearly, and his heart stirred.

If Lu Yao hadn't known that the person in the bed was Lin Dong, he almost wouldn't have recognized him.

His hair was tangled like dry straw, his eyes were sunken, and his lips were chapped.

He still had a splint on his leg.

The injured leg seemed unable to lift the heavy shackles.

He just swayed for a moment, then lay back down.

Thinking back to the domineering spirit he displayed when he drew his gun against Lu Yao, and then looking at his current dejected state, Lu Yao couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

"Dong-ge, are you alright?"

Lin Dong, who was originally reluctant to get up, suddenly shuddered upon hearing Lu Yao's voice, his dim eyes brightened, and he sat up abruptly.

Judging from his speed, he is not exhausted and still poses a life-threatening danger.

"Lu Yao, is that you?"

Lu Yao walked in.

Lin Dong saw him clearly, looked him over in his police uniform, and gave a wry smile:

"You're in the police station because you arrested me and got some credit for it?"

Lu Yao smiled, reached out and took out a cigarette, lit it, and put it in Lin Dong's mouth.

Lin Dong took a puff and almost inhaled half a cigarette.

I choked and kept coughing.

Lu Yao went over and patted his back a few times.

Throw the remaining half pack of cigarettes at him.

Lin Dong glanced at the half-pack of cigarettes.

He was a smoker, but at this moment he didn't want Lu Yao's things anymore.

He rolled his eyes at Lu Yao standing in front of him:

"Kid, do you know what I'm thinking right now?"

"You want to kill me, don't you?"

"Hmph, if I still had the strength to kill, you'd be the first one I kill!"

Lu Yao said coldly, "Save your breath. You want to kill me? Shi Shouyin is already after you. He's already put a bounty on your head, and his men are about to draw lots to decide who lives and who dies."

How did you know?

"Because I am now the person Shi Shouyin trusts the most."

"..."

Lin Dong was taken aback.

He immediately believed it.

Lu Yao is capable. If Shi Shouyin didn't know that Lu Yao had captured him, then in Shi Shouyin's absence, he would definitely need a capable person by his side to protect him.

Lin Dong knew how good Shi Shouyin had been to Lu Yao.

So he believed it.

Lu Yao said that Shi Shouyin wanted to kill him, and he was not surprised.

Shi Shouyin was such a person; he never thought anyone else was good.

She had only received favors from his father, so she felt obligated to protect him.

Whether he wants to kill himself or not is no longer important.

At this point, he was a prisoner, powerless to do anything.

He smiled bitterly and said, "Why kill me? I've already decided not to live."

He hadn't eaten for days; he was resigned to his fate.

Then he raised his head again:

"Lu Yao, I have one thing to ask of you before I die."

"Speak."

Lu Yao knew what he wanted to ask.

Sure enough, Lin Dong asked, "How did you know about my younger brother, Sanhai? Do you have any information about him? Please tell me, considering I'm about to die?"

This tough guy had never asked anyone for anything before, but now he looked on with anticipation.

Losing his younger brother when he was a child is a lingering regret in his heart.

Lu Yao reached out and pressed on his shoulder:

"If I said I only heard about this and had no idea where your brother was, would you believe me?"

Lin Dong shook his head:

"Impossible! You might have heard my younger brother Sanhai'er's name from someone else, but... Uncle Liu gave me half a pancake, and I've never told anyone that. Even Shi Shouyin didn't know. How can I believe your wild guesses!"

Lu Yao couldn't tell him that these were things he had said to him in their previous life.

This made Lin Dong even less credible; it was more believable to say it was just a wild guess.

"Don't ask me how I know. Just tell me what's on your mind, and I'll do my best to help you."

Lin Dong was dejected.

His current mindset is simply to die quickly.

However, I still looked at Lu Yao with a bit of resentment:

"Actually, what I want most is to see my brother one last time, even if I die right away, I'm willing to do it."

Lu Yao has a younger sister whom he adores, so he understands Lin Dong's feelings very well.

If Lin Dong is executed, I wonder if he will have a chance to be reborn and go back to see his brother.

I asked, "What are your brother's distinguishing features? If there's time, I can help you look for him. I know some reporters; I can put up a missing person ad for you."

Lin Dong didn't actually have much hope.

However, I still said it:

"If the third child were alive, he would be twenty-nine this year. He has an extra thumb on his right hand, making him six fingers, a red birthmark behind his left ear, and..."

"And there's a red birthmark on your lower back, isn't there?"

Lu Yao couldn't help but chime in.

"Teng"

Lin Dong stood up.

Eyes wide open:

"How...how did you know he also had a birthmark on his waist? You...you've seen Sanhai'er? You really know him?"

Lu Yao was also quite surprised.

He never expected that the younger brother Lin Dong had been longing for was actually right beside him.

So when Lin Dong mentions his younger brother's characteristics, Lu Yao can immediately name them and then name the next characteristic.
