Intending To Arrest Him

"That's my mother's condition right now. Lili, if I truly need it, I'll tell you."

This was the first time Lucas faced such a case. He couldn't help but wonder the possibility of the authorities downplaying the seriousness of his mother's situation.

Lucas didn't intend to think badly of the authorities yet, he had heard several stories of how they ignored the reports made. Some of them also told the victims to solve the case within the latter's own family.

One of them was Mrs. Fu. 

Harris used to tell Lucas how once Mrs. Fu got rejected by the local police when she reported her husband beating her. She even brought some evidence.

Those men who should have been the civilian defenders bluntly told her that they weren't interested in one's messy marriage.

Thus, Lucas wanted to be prepared for the possibility. His mother's safety was the most important thing right now.
