The man in the hoodie paused. “Sorry,” he said. “I’m in a hurry.”

After saying that, he started to walk away.

Lin Gantang did not let go. “I won’t take up too much of your time. What’s in your backpack? Is it convenient for me to take a look?”

The man blocked her hand, his expression unpleasant. “Who are you? You have no right to search my personal belongings.” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“I’m the owner of the bookstore. I saw you hiding something in your bag just now.” Lin Gantang picked up some cat fur from the zipper of his backpack and held it up in front of him.

The hooded man’s eyes flashed. “What are you trying to say? Are you saying that I stole your things? Cat fur? Just now, the cats in the shop came to play and rubbed against my bag. Isn’t that normal?”

He lifted his foot and strode away. Lin Gantang blocked him. “If you didn’t steal anything, what are you so anxious about?”

“You have no evidence. What right do you have to make me stay?”

The other customers saw the dispute and looked on.

When Le Yu saw this, he walked to Lin Gantang’s side.

The man in the hoodie looked at the tall and burly Le Yu with an unfriendly expression. “What, you intend to bully your customers? Is this how your Cat Bookstore treats its customers? It’s really unheard of.”

“If you don’t have a guilty conscience, why don’t you even dare to let others see?” Le Yu frowned, having heard the whole story earlier.

“Are you a police officer? Why are you searching someone else’s bag?” The man in the hoodie tightened his grip on his backpack. “What kind of bookstore is this?” he shouted. “With your service attitude, you’re worth nothing!”

Qian Ruoxi immediately ran over when she heard the commotion.

Le Yu was furious when he saw him curse. He rolled up his sleeves and prepared to fight.

“There are surveillance cameras in the shop.” Lin Gantang pulled him back. “Xiaoxi, check if this man did anything in the shop.”

“Okay, boss, I’ll go now,” Qian Ruoxi replied.

Lin Gantang looked straight at the man in the hoodie and said coldly, “The bookstore has no blind spots. We can’t look at your bag? Alright, I’ll look at the surveillance camera. If I misunderstood you, I will apologize to you.”

“That’s right, young man. If you didn’t take anything, you won’t be afraid to let them check it. By the way, what’s in your bag? It looks quite heavy,” an elderly person said.

“Why should he listen to her and get monitored when he hasn’t done anything? It’s such a big shop. Isn’t it insulting?” Someone disagreed.

“Then what do you think we should do? Let him go? If the things in the shop were really taken away, who would pay? You?” the elderly person asked.

“Why do you have to think badly of others? Look at what this man is wearing. Does it look like he needs to steal someone else’s things?”

“You can’t judge a person’s heart by their appearance. I didn’t live for decades in vain. He looks guilty.”

More and more customers gathered to watch, but there weren’t many who spoke up for Lin Gantang like the elderly person. Most of them merely came to watch the show.

The man mumbled a few words and did not argue with the elderly person. After all, he did not know the truth and was afraid of having to eat his words in the end, so he might as well say less.

When Qian Ruoxi went to check the surveillance cameras, the man in the hoodie was obviously a little nervous. His gaze was shifty and fleeting.

Le Yu could see it clearly – he was definitely guilty!

He grabbed the man on behalf of Lin Gantang and snatched his backpack with his other hand.

The man in the hoodie yanked his bag back.

Le Yu’s face darkened. He took advantage of the situation and pulled the zipper. The backpack was pulled open. A cat was inside the black bag!

The hooded man’s expression changed drastically. He was completely flustered. He thought about it and quickly grabbed the cat by its neck and threw it onto Le Yu. Le Yu quickly caught it, but the person had already grabbed the bag and fled through the crowd..
