Villain? No, I'll catch up with the protagonist after passing the civil service exam.

script.

She looked at Lu Jingyan and subconsciously reached for the confiscated eye drops, but found nothing.

"Uncle... Uncle..."

Lin Miaomiao stammered, her voice barely audible, "I...I didn't..."

"Stand up."

Lu Jingyan's voice remained calm, yet it carried an undeniable power.

Lin Miaomiao hesitated for a moment, her legs were a little numb, and she tried to stand up several times but failed.

Lu Jingyan sighed.

He reached out, grasped the little girl's slender arm, and with a little force, lifted her off the ground.

"Pat your knees," he said.

Lin Miaomiao mechanically brushed the dust off her skirt, keeping her head down and not daring to look Lu Jingyan in the eye.

"Lin Miaomiao, 12 years old, debuted as a child star and is known as the 'Nation's Daughter'."

Lu Jingyan looked at her as if reciting a file he knew by heart, "The dress you're wearing is a Dior haute couture piece, worth 58,000. The shoes you're wearing are a limited edition Miu Miu, worth 12,000. The old-looking rag doll you're holding is actually a famous vintage collectible, with an auction price in the six figures."

With each number he announced, Lin Miaomiao lowered her head a little further.

The onlookers gasped in shock.

They were so focused on how pitiful the child was that they never imagined his seemingly simple attire was actually worth a fortune! This isn't a pitiful orphan; he's a walking money-shredding machine!

"Your father, Producer Lin, used film and television projects to launder money, involving as much as 300 million yuan."

Lu Jingyan's voice suddenly turned cold, devoid of any warmth, "Do you know what these three hundred million yuan means? It means that the hard-earned money of countless investors has been wasted, and that countless ordinary families have been torn apart because of him."

"He used this blood-stained dirty money to buy you haute couture, send you to elite schools, and turn you into the so-called 'national daughter'."

Lu Jingyan bent down, his gaze meeting Lin Miaomiao's again. There was no accusation in his eyes, only a chilling clarity.

"Little sister, you just asked me what you would do if you didn't release your father."

"I'll answer you now."

"When your father committed the crime, did he ever think of making you cry here? If he truly loved you, he wouldn't have used this dirty money to build your life, nor would he have made you a pawn in the hands of the agency, kneeling here and using everyone's sympathy to interfere with judicial fairness."

Lin Miaomiao suddenly raised her head, tears welling up in her eyes. This time, it was for real.

"But...but he was so good to me too..." she choked back tears, trying to salvage her father's final image. "He bought me a big house, took me to Disneyland..."

"That was achieved at the cost of other people's suffering."

Lu Jingyan interrupted her without hesitation, "Those people who were swindled out of their fortunes by him, their children also have fathers, they also want to go to Disneyland, but now they can't even afford to eat."

"If you enjoy the privileges that come with dirty money, you must bear the consequences when those privileges collapse."

"That's fair."

Lin Miaomiao was completely stunned.

She had never thought about these things. In her world, her father was omnipotent, money was inexhaustible, and as long as she cried, there was no problem that couldn't be solved.

But now, this policeman is telling her that her world is built on the bones of other people.

"Then... what should I do?"

She clutched the hem of her skirt in a panic, feeling lost for the first time. "Without him, am I... am I no longer a princess?"

"You were never a princess."

Lu Jingyan straightened up, straightened his collar which had been ruffled by the wind, and resumed his businesslike and aloof tone.

"You're just a twelve-year-old student."

"Don't call me uncle, and don't call me brother. Here, trying to claim kinship won't work, and playing the victim won't work either."

He pointed to the solemn police badge above his head.

"The law shows no mercy."

"Your father is in jail to atone for the crimes he committed. This is the path he has to take; no one can take it for him or save him."

"As for you."

Lu Jingyan glanced at the agent who was so frightened that he hid behind the van and dared not show his face, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes.

"Go back and wash your face clean, take off this outfit that doesn't belong to you. Go back to school and study hard."

"From now on, I will be an honest and upright person, and support myself with clean money."

"That's the best way to repay your father."

After saying that, Lu Jingyan didn't look at her again and turned to walk towards the police station gate.

His back was as straight as a pine tree, appearing particularly lonely in the night, yet incredibly resolute.

"Zhao Tiezhu".

He whispered the order into his headset.

"arrive!"

"Bring that agent back. She's suspected of disturbing public order and instigating minors; she's in big trouble."

"yes!"

As Zhao Tiezhu led the special police to rush towards the nanny van, the once arrogant Sister Hong let out a pig-like scream and was dragged directly into the police station.

The city bureau's gate slowly closed.

All the noise, the flashing lights, and the little girl standing in the wind, finally stopped crying but lost in thought, were shut out.

That night, the internet in Jinghai City was once again put to the test.

#Lu Jingyan tears apart the script of the nation's daughter#

#The law tolerates no mercy, and even less so, no drama queens#

#Don't use children's tears to hijack justice#

These terms quickly became trending topics, sparking a nationwide discussion about "education of celebrity children" and "the bottom line of entertainment."

Inside the special investigation team's office.

Su Xiaoxiao breathed a long sigh of relief as she looked at the comments on the screen that had finally regained their senses.

"Captain Lu, what you just said was excellent."

She handed Lu Jingyan a glass of warm water, her eyes full of admiration. "That Lin Miaomiao is pitiful, having such a father and manager. But after tonight, she should learn her lesson."

Whether she can learn from her mistakes is her own business.

Lu Jingyan took a sip of water to moisten his dry throat. "Our mission is to make those who make mistakes pay the price, and to instill a sense of awe in those who want to make mistakes."

He walked to the window and looked out at the brightly lit city.

The crackdown on the entertainment industry is just the beginning.

Producer Lin has fallen, Director Zhang has been arrested, and Xiao Huohuo is in jail. Huayi Media, this behemoth, has had several important pillars knocked out and is now teetering on the brink of collapse.

But Lu Jingyan knew that the real eye of the storm was yet to come.

"Captain Lu, there's new information."

Su Xiaoxiao's voice suddenly became a little strange. She pointed to another monitor and her tone was filled with disbelief.

"Over in the entertainment industry... it seems someone else is having a moment of madness and is about to walk into the line of fire."

"Um?"

Lu Jingyan raised an eyebrow and turned around. "What do you mean? Is there anyone at Huayi who dares to show their face?"

"Not Huayi."

Su Xiaoxiao brought up a colorful live stream screen filled with pink bubbles.

The image shows a stunningly beautiful young woman with a gorgeous figure. She is wearing a sparkly stage outfit and is being interviewed by the media.

"It's White Dew."

Su Xiaoxiao introduced, "The current center of the top girl group is known as the 'straight man killer' and the 'human beauty of wealth.' She has more fans than Xiao Huohuo, and her fighting power is even stronger."

"What's wrong with her?" Lu Jingyan didn't really understand these popular celebrities; he just thought the woman's makeup was a bit too heavy.

"In the interview just now..."

Su Xiaoxiao swallowed and clicked on the video replay.

On the screen, Bai Lu, facing countless microphones, flashed an aggressive smile, her eyes fixed on the camera as if she were shouting across the distance:

"Everyone says that Officer Lu is a beacon of the rule of law and is celibate. Actually... Officer Lu and I have a very good relationship in private."

She paused deliberately, making a shy yet ambiguous expression.

"He's actually very gentle in private. He even said last time that I'm the most special girl he's ever met."

"I heard that Officer Lu will also be providing security for this patrol variety show. I'm really looking forward to... another 'chance encounter' with him!"

After saying that, she made a heart shape with her hands towards the camera and captioned it: #MyGuardianGod#.

The video has finished playing.

A deathly silence fell over the office.

Zhao Tiezhu stopped wiping his gun, and the chewing gum in his mouth fell to the ground.

Qin, the forensic doctor, pushed up his glasses and let out a cold laugh that was hard to decipher.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Lu Jingyan with an expression that said, "This woman is crazy."

"Captain Lu...you...you know her?"

"I don't know her at all."

Lu Jingyan's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

What he hates most in his life, besides criminals, are these kinds of "drama queens" who inexplicably attach themselves to him and try to use him for publicity.

Are they very close in private?

The most special girl?

gentle?

Every single word he uttered challenged the bottom line of this "straight man with a steely heart".

"check."

Lu Jingyan's voice was so cold it felt like ice crystals were about to fall out. "Investigate her schedule, investigate her company, investigate whether she has evaded taxes. Also, contact the legal department and prepare a lawyer's letter."

"Isn't she trying to create a romantic pairing?"

Lu Jingyan picked up his police cap and slammed it down on his head.

"Then I'll give her a chance."

"Tomorrow, I'm going to her performance. I want to see if this 'straight man killer' can scare me with the 'Public Security Administration Punishment Law' in front of tens of thousands of people."

"Putting themselves together as a couple? This is suspected of false advertising and deceiving the public."

"I'll make you regret it so much you'll end up behind bars!"

The fuse for Volume Three was lit by that reckless center of the girl group on a night filled with pink bubbles and dark humor.
