Chapter 194: As If You Never Did It Yourself
"You two shut up!" Chen Moxiang suddenly flew into a rage.
The male colleague shuddered with fright and wisely shut his mouth.
As for Lin Tian, on the surface, he feigned a look of utter shock, but in his heart, he was convinced that Chen Moxiang was that female thief.
If she wasn’t the female thief, why would she get so angry?
Actually, what Lin Tian just said was meant to provoke her, to see her reaction.
If Chen Moxiang stayed unfazed, it could all be a coincidence.
If Chen Moxiang reacted violently, then it was definitely her.
Now everything was obvious.
"We weren’t talking about you, so why are you angry?" Lin Tian asked in a deep voice.
"When you two are chatting, consider my feelings as a woman!" Chen Moxiang said, still not calmed down.
However, Chen Moxiang was smart enough to divert the conversation away from such a disgusting topic.
After all, Chen Moxiang knew in her heart that she was the female thief.
Back then, when Lin Tian took advantage of her, it wasn’t her choice, she had no alternative.
She just didn’t expect Lin Tian not only acted like a rogue but also had such vile thoughts.
For a moment, Chen Moxiang branded Lin Tian as a despicable rogue in her heart!!!
"Lin Tian, who are they?" Just then, Bai Shishi came down the stairs looking at them.
"Family Security Bureau people. They came to ask you about Wang Quan!" Lin Tian pointed at Chen Moxiang and her colleague to explain.
"Bai Shishi, right?" Chen Moxiang was straightforward, without any nonsense: "Wang Quan is a shareholder in your company. I’d like to ask about his recent situation!"
"You don’t need to ask me, I don’t know what Wang Quan has been doing!" Bai Shishi distanced herself from Wang Quan as soon as she learned about his deeds.
"I know you don’t know. I just want to ask if you know where Wang Quan might hide things or if he has a locker room in your company, as we’re looking for his criminal evidence!" Chen Moxiang explained why she came late at night.
"Also, don’t be in such a hurry to distance yourself from Wang Quan!" At this point, the male colleague standing beside Bai Shishi suddenly interjected.
"What do you mean?" This comment displeased Bai Shishi, turning her pretty face icy cold: "Are you implying that I am colluding with Wang Quan?"
"That’s not what I meant, I didn’t say that!" The male colleague replied with a stern face, letting out a cold snort.
"Shut up!" Bai Shishi ordered the male colleague again.
"This matter concerns national interest; my colleague suspects you for a reason!"
"I’ll be direct, we’ve been monitoring Wang Quan, and tonight our people saw someone sneak into Wang Quan’s house and then leave in your car. Because your vehicle sped away, our people couldn’t catch up, so I want to know what happened?"
Chen Moxiang’s words explained why she visited Bai Shishi late at night.
Her words left Lin Tian shocked.
It turned out his actions had always been under surveillance, the Family Security Bureau was terrifying!
"Why aren’t you speaking?" Chen Moxiang asked as she noticed Lin Tian and Bai Shishi’s silence, feeling they had something to hide.
Bai Shishi remained silent because that person was Lin Tian, and she couldn’t betray him.
If she made a mistake, what if Lin Tian was arrested by the Family Security Bureau for burglary?
That would be a charge of burglary!!!
Lin Tian was silent because he had figured it all out.
Realizing that Chen Moxiang was indeed the female thief, because the Security Bureau knew he got into Bai Shishi’s car, so Chen Moxiang took on the thief’s guise to sneak into Bai Shishi’s house to check things out!
To put it more bluntly, she wanted to see if there was any collusion between Wang Quan and Bai Shishi, hiding those artifacts and information in Bai Shishi’s house.
In an instant, Lin Tian understood everything.
"Can you ask your colleague to leave first?" Lin Tian suddenly spoke up.
"Hmm?" Chen Moxiang responded with just a look, prompting the male colleague to smartly step outside the villa, closing the door behind him.
"Now can we talk?"
"The person you mentioned is me, I went to Wang Quan’s house tonight!" Lin Tian admitted without concealment.
Those pieces of information and artifacts were like hot potatoes, and he had thought of handing them to the police first thing in the morning.
Now that the Family Security Bureau came knocking, it might be wiser to confess everything.
Confessing early could minimize national losses.
"What did you go to Wang Quan’s house for?"
Upon hearing it was Lin Tian, Chen Moxiang, who already didn’t have a good opinion of him, had her tone turn icy.
"Here’s how it is, Wang Quan and Miss Bai had some commercial dispute, and several times sent people to trouble Miss Bai, so I secretly snuck into Wang Quan’s house earlier, planted four recording pens to see if he was behind it causing trouble for Miss Bai!"
Lin Tian paused, continuing: "Tonight I went to retrieve the four recording pens!"
At this moment, Bai Shishi cooperated fully by pointing to the four recording pens being charged on a nearby socket: "I can testify to that!"
"I just didn’t expect that by sheer chance, I accidentally discovered a hidden safe in Wang Quan’s house, and since I knew a little about cracking safes, I managed to open it..."
Before Lin Tian could finish, Chen Moxiang interrupted: "What did you find?"
"Just a moment, I’ll get the items for you to see!" Lin Tian turned and went to the bedroom, soon coming out with a black folder and the Jade Pendant in hand.
"Here, these are what I found in the safe. There are also several larger artifacts, which I didn’t take out to avoid alerting Wang Quan!"
Lin Tian passed the items to Chen Moxiang: "Originally, I intended to hand them over to the police first thing in the morning; since you’re here for this, I’ll hand them to you!"
Taking the items, Chen Moxiang quickly flipped through the black folder, her expression becoming increasingly grave. After finishing, she looked at the Jade Pendant and cursed: "Damn bastard!"
"If you want to catch him, do it quickly. Those artifacts should be slated for smuggling to the Sakula Country Museum. The folder mentions handing them over to someone named Zhuge. If you manage to arrest Wang Quan in time, maybe the other artifacts won’t be lost overseas!" Lin Tian advised.
As a person of the Celestial Dragon Continent, naturally, he cherished his country deeply.
The ancestral treasures surely shouldn’t end up in foreign lands.
This sentiment is shared by every Celestial Dragon Continent person!
Chen Moxiang immediately took out her phone to make a call: "Attention all personnel, the criminal evidence is conclusive, arrest Wang Quan!"
After hanging up, Chen Moxiang gave Lin Tian a meaningful look: "Refrain from such break-ins in the future; I’ll let you off this time for bringing out these things!"
These words left Lin Tian unable to hold back, as if she hasn’t done the same...
