Chapter: 4528

"After that, Chen Shaozhong looked at Luming and asked: 'I know you're here to do something. Can I go get my luggage?'"

"Luming nodded towards another colleague beside him and said: 'Ah Dong, come with him!'"

"The other person immediately agreed: 'Okay!'"

"Soon, Chen Shaozhong was pulling his old and worn-out suitcase as he walked up with the police officers accompanying him."

"He looked at Strong A and smiled slightly: 'Strong! You've grown up. In the future, you won't be just Strong A anymore; you need to learn to stand on your own two feet! Remember what I told you, take care of this store well, don't ruin my twenty-plus years of hard work, got it?'"

"Strong A was crying uncontrollably, nodding repeatedly and stammering: 'I understand, Uncle Clock...'"

Luming nodded with satisfaction, then looked at the shocked crowd of customers and bowed: "Many of you have been my loyal customers for a long time. After tonight, I won't be able to serve you Peking duck anymore, but Ah Qiang has followed me for ten years or so, and his skills are already very good. I hope everyone will continue to support his business in the future!"

The old customers all knew that Luming was an illegal immigrant in America, although they didn't know much about his past. They were clear that since the police had come for him, he would definitely be deported.

So everyone started speaking up to reassure him, saying they would definitely take care of Ah Qiang's business.

Luming thanked the crowd and looked at Ah Qiang, instructing: "Ah Qiang, I'll leave first. Tonight's dinner is on me, but please remember to give my regards to everyone!"

The words Luming spoke out were like a farewell to Ah Qiang.

To him, Luming had played the role of a father for over ten years in the past, and was the only person he considered family. So when he saw Luming being arrested, his heart was filled with unbearable sorrow.

But Luming didn't want to let Ah Qiang get too emotional about it. Officer Lu Ming originally wanted to give them some time to say goodbye, but Luming picked up his luggage and spoke out: "Officer, let's go."

Lu Ming sighed and said: "Alright, let's go."

"Does it still use handcuffs?" Officer Lu Ming asked.

"No, it doesn't," Luming replied, waving his hand. "You're only suspected of overstaying your visa and not a serious crime. We'll take you back to investigate first, then record the details, and afterwards, immigration officials will come to join in the investigation. If we confirm that you have overstayed your visa, we'll start the deportation process. At that time, a designated person will send you on the plane."

Luming nodded slightly, very politely bowing his head, saying, "I've caused trouble for everyone."

Officer Lu Ming heard him say this and suddenly felt a bit awkward, coughed twice, and said in a deep tone, "Ah, yes... actually, I need to tell you something. This case isn't led by the police department; it's led by immigration. It's estimated that someone received a report about your overstaying your visa from there, so they passed it on to us for assistance."

As he spoke, Officer Lu Ming intentionally cursed and said, "For God's sake... I don't know who would do this. There are many people in Chinatown who illegally overstay their visas or engage in human smuggling in the United States. Why only you were reported?"

Officer Lu Ming's tone implied that he was pointing out to Chen Shaoguang and Strongie that someone was behind the scenes.

Chen Shaoguang naturally understood this, but he had already taken a philosophical attitude towards this matter, so he just smiled slightly and said, "After all, I have been breaking the law myself. It's only reasonable that others would report me."

Officer Lu Ming didn't expect Chen Shaoguang to be so calm, sighed and said, "Okay then... since you've already figured out the pros and cons, I won't bother talking about it here anymore."

Having said this, he glanced at Strongie intentionally and opened his mouth, saying, "The entire process of detention, investigation, and deportation will take around five to seven days. However, your situation is quite special, so immigration requires us to settle the case within three days. But... my boss has been forced to retire early due to circumstances, which has put me in a bad mood. So I'm going to drag my feet a bit and estimate that it'll take another two or three days. You all just keep counting down the time, and if you have any other tricks up your sleeves, don't hide them; make the most of the time."

Officer Lu Ming looked at Chen Shaoguang's file until he returned to Hong Kong, knowing that his life would be in danger. He also knew that Luming was connected with Strongie's father through social connections, and if Strongie's family could help out, maybe it could save him from danger. So he intentionally pointed out the two of them and even expressed his willingness to help delay Chen Shaoguang's deportation time as much as possible.

Chen Shaoguang also caught on to Officer Lu Ming's intention, looking at Strongie seriously and saying, "Strongie, absolutely do not contact anyone. I don't want to owe someone a favor again, okay?" JrNovels.com
