Chapter 134 – Pretentious B*Tches, Off You Go To The Police Station

“Didn't you hear what the officer just said? Move it, don't dawdle!” Zuo Xiaoqing urged anxiously.

Luo Chenxi glanced at her. “Zuo Xiaoqing, the case hasn't even been resolved, yet here you are, urging to send me off to the police station, are you actually feeling guilty for something?”

Zuo Xiaoqing choked. “What… what do you mean guilty? I'm only adhering to the law!”

Luo Chenxi ignored her and turned to the police officer. “Officer, it's true that I was the closest to the booth, but I had never touched the bracelet at all. How can I be suspected just from this information? In my opinion, you should change your way of reasoning about this matter.”

“Where are you getting at?”

“I think you should think about it in reverse. When the theft happened, everyone was in the exhibition hall, there's not a single person that has left. In other words, the suspect couldn't escape with it after stealing it, which also means that the bracelet must still be somewhere in the exhibition hall! If we find the bracelet, we might be able to find the suspect.”

The police officer's eyes lit up. “That's right, this is indeed a sound argument.”

The first step was to check everyone's backpacks.

Luo Chenxi took the initiative to open her backpack herself, there was only her purse, cell phone, and keys inside.

The policeman nodded. “Alright, next!”

Luo Chenxi stepped aside and turned to look at Zuo Xiaoqing and Wu Lingshan.

Both of them had looks of unease on their faces.

Zuo Xiaoqing's eyes were darting left and right. It was obvious that she had b.u.t.terflies in her stomach.

Soon, the police officers finished checking everybody's backpack, but the bracelet was nowhere to be found.

Luo Chenxi was not surprised. Wu Lingshan was not an idiot after all, so how would she be dumb enough to hide the bracelet with her?

However, judging by the way things were going, it was only a matter of time before the bracelet was found.

As expected, not long after, a young police officer shouted excitedly, “I found it! I found the diamond bracelet! It was thrown into the storage room where the sundries are stored!”

The leader of the police officers snapped back to his senses. “That's great, quickly check the surveillance footage of the storage room. Find out who went there around the time of the theft!”

Zuo Xiaoqing's face was pale. She attempted to sneaked out of the crowd in an attempt to escape in the chaos.

“Zuo Xiaoqing, weren't you the most eager person here who wanted to find out who stole the bracelet? Why are you trying to leave when we're so close to the truth?” Luo Chenxi blocked Zuo Xiaoqing's way out at the right time with a grin on her face.

“I… You… get out of my way!”

Zuo Xiaoqing tried to push her away in panic.

However, at this moment…

“I found it! This is the person who threw the bracelet into the storage room, light blue dress and a white top… isn't this Zuo Xiaoqing?”

With a whoosh, everyone turned their heads and looked at Zuo Xiaoqing.

Everyone was no fool, what came after the surprise was the picture of the entire situation.

“The person who stole the bracelet was actually Zuo Xiaoqing! She stole it herself, and even tried to frame Xing Chen for it. The thief herself pretended to be a good civilian!”

“D*mn, this is simply pus.h.i.+ng the definition of 'shameless' to the extreme!”

“No wonder she kept insisting that Xing Chen stole the bracelet, turns out it was an attempt to cover up her own crime!”

The police officer walked over. “Miss Zuo, what else do you have to say? Come with us to the police station!”

“No! I can't go to the police station… I can't!” Zuo Xiaoqing shook her head desperately, panicking.

Once she got convicted of theft, the criminal record would turn into a stain in her life that she would always have to bear, her life was pretty much ruined from that point onward! This was a hundred times worse than getting eliminated from the compet.i.tion!

She looked toward Wu Lingshan for help.

However, how would Wu Lingshan pay any heed to Zuo Xiaoqing when she only cared about clearing her own name?

Zuo Xiaoqing was in despair, she was also angry and anxious. She simply shouted, “I really didn't steal anything! Wu Lingshan was the one who gave me that bracelet, she was jealous of Xing Chen, so she had me hide the bracelet and frame Xing Chen of stealing!”

“What?”

There was an uproar.

Wu Lingshan's face was ashen. She glared fiercely at Zuo Xiaoqing. “Don't you slander me! You were clearly the one who stole the bracelet, what does that have to do with me?”

Zuo Xiaoqing explained anxiously, “It's true, everything that I just said is true! Look at the surveillance footage. Other than Xing Chen, Wu Lingshan was the only one near the booth! How am I supposed to get my hands on the bracelet if she didn't give it to me in the first place?”

The exhibition hall started falling into chaos.

“Oh my G.o.d, I can't believe Wu Lingshan would actually do such a thing!”

“You really can't judge a book by its cover. I never imagined she would have such a terrible personality!”

“She set up to frame someone else just because she's incapable of competing with the others! We almost wronged Xing Chen…”

Wu Lingshan was so angry that she almost spurted blood. She refused to admit to Zuo Xiaoqing's accusation.

Both parties exchanged arguments and blamed each other.

The police officers obviously understood what was happening, so one of them simply said, “Stop arguing, neither of you can cut yourself clean from this incident, take them both away!”

This farce ended with Wu Lingshan and Zuo Xiaoqing in the police station.

Luo Chenxi slowly walked out of SL Corporation. She felt like the entire afternoon drained her more than a marathon could ever do.

The sky was already completely dark.

Beep! Beep!

A car honk suddenly sounded.

Luo Chenxi was startled. As she turned around, she saw a Maybach parked behind her.
