When the manager saw that she had refused, he did not say anything more. However, the manager did not leave. After such a thing happened, he naturally could not ignore it.
The speed of the police was quite fast. They arrived in about half an hour.
When the onlookers saw that the police had arrived, they all moved aside. It had been more than half an hour, and no one had left. Instead, there were more and more people surrounding them.
It was human nature to watch a show.
âDid you call the police?â A police officer around the age of 40 walked into the shop. His eyes quickly swept across the crowd, and his voice was obviously somewhat stern.
A young police officer around the age of 20 followed behind him.
When Gu Yingying saw that the police had arrived, she could not help but feel excited. This was great. There would be a show to watch soon.
She had been paying attention to Chu Wuyou just now. Chu Wuyou had never noticed the jade bracelet in her pocket, so the jade bracelet was still in Chu Wuyouâs pocket!
Chu Wuyou did not let the attendant search her and insisted on calling the police. Now that the police had arrived, she wanted to see how Chu Wuyou could refuse.
âYes, I called the police,â Sister Liu answered quickly.
âWhat was stolen?â The police clearly understood the situation and asked directly.
âA jade bracelet worth more than 20 million yuan was stolen.â When Sister Liu said this, her eyes could not help but look at Chu Wuyou. Although she did not say it explicitly, the meaning was obvious.
âWhat happened?â The police also looked at Chu Wuyou. When he saw that Chu Wuyou was seriously playing with her phone, he frowned slightly.
He had been a police officer for so many years and had seen countless thieves, but this was the first time he had seen someone so calm as if nothing had happened.
âAt that time, Miss Gu came to buy jade bracelets. We took out a few models of jade bracelets for Miss Gu to see. Miss Chu kept looking at them, and then we found that one of the jade bracelets was missing.â Sister Liu gave a brief account of the incident.
âAt that time, besides the three attendants, two Miss Gus, and Miss Chu, there was no one else in the shop. The few of us had been accompanying Miss Guâ¦â Sister Liu thought for a moment and added, her words were very eloquent, it meant that they could testify for Gu Yingying.
While the police and Sister Liu were talking, Chu Wuyou was playing with her phone. She did not have any reaction. She did not even raise her head.
âMiss Chu, can I ask you a few questions?â The police officer turned to Chu Wuyou. His eyes flashed, as he spoke.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWait a minute, let me finish this game.â Chu Wuyou still did not raise her head. She only replied quickly.
âYou?â The police officer was stunned. Apparently, he did not expect that she would still play her game even though he had asked her.
âMiss Chu, please cooperate with our work. Otherwise, weâll have to bring you back to the police station.â The police officer secretly exhaled, and his voice suddenly became even more stern.
Only then did Chu Wuyou raise her head and look at him, smiling. âDonât worry, Iâll definitely cooperate with the policeâs work.â
The police officer saw the smile on her face and was stunned again.
âThen please answer a few questions, Miss Chu.â The police officerâs expression softened slightly.
âOfficer, can you wait for a moment?â Chu Wuyou looked at him and smiled again. There was obviously a hint of a smile in her voice.
âWait for what?â The police officer was completely confused this time. What was she waiting for under such circumstances?
âWait a little longer, you will know.â Chu Wuyou because of a special situation was deliberately not cooperating with the police in handling the case.
âChu Wuyou, are you deliberately stalling for time?â Gu Lingling could not help but say again, âChu Wuyou, you said to call the police, but you arenât cooperating now that theyâre here. Arenât you wasting our time?â
âIâm wasting your time? Did I ask you to stay here?â Chu Wuyou looked at Gu Lingling with an extremely innocent expression.
âWe were all there at the time. How can we leave if we donât find out what happened?â Gu Lingling was stunned for a moment and then subconsciously retorted.
âYou mean that you are also a suspect? The jade bracelet was actuallyâ¦â Chu Wuyouâs eyes were wide open and she looked as if she had suddenly realized something.
