Wen Shu's mind went blank. "I didn't!"

"Come back with us for investigation. Once the facts are clear, your innocence will be proven."

Wen Shu shook her head, "I can't leave now. My grandmother is having brain surgery, and if I leave, there will be no one to take care of her... In four hours, I still need to pick up my son from kindergarten..."

"Then you need to arrange for someone else to pick up your son. This is not a reason for you not to cooperate with the investigation."

"There's no one else," Wen Shu suddenly shouted. "It's just me, my grandma, and my son in my family. There's no one else. Officers, I beg you..."

Seeing that she was completely uncooperative, the two policemen looked very displeased.

Finally, Officer Lin couldn't help but remind her, "Wen Shu, you have to go back with them for questioning. Someone filed a report, and they've provided surveillance video."

Officer Lin gave her a somewhat troubled look. "The person in the video is you. You know best whether you've been to the Li's Building or not. You should go and resolve this matter as soon as possible."

Wen Shu looked at Officer Lin with teary eyes and said, "Officer Lin, my grandmother is in surgery, and my son's kindergarten lets out at 3:30 pm, if..."

Officer Lin frowned, his young face full of difficulty. Finally, he couldn't help but say, "Okay, if your grandmother wakes up, I'll explain to her. I'll pick up your son later and bring him to the police station to wait for you."

Wen Shu looked at Officer Lin, quickly wiped away her tears, and then bowed deeply to him, "Thank you, Officer Lin!"

Then, Wen Shu followed the two policemen.

"It's you again?"

The police officer taking the statement was taken aback. If he remembered correctly, it was her last time too.

This girl looks very young, but she's quite stubborn.

The most crucial question is, how did she get back in? Last time people accused her of stealing, and now they're accusing her of stealing again. Could she really be a habitual thief?

The last time, the person who filed the report withdrew the case voluntarily, and they even mediated the dispute.

The person who reported the incident apologized and even went to the community to clarify the situation and restore the other party's reputation.

Why is it her again this time?

If she is involved in two theft cases in a row, they really need to take it seriously and see if this girl has actually committed theft.

Why is it always her who gets reported for stealing, and not someone else?

"Did you break into the Li Group building today and take something from them?"

Wen Shu took the chain and pendant out of her pocket. "Is this what you mean?"

"So you just handed it over without hesitation?"

Why did you take this from them?

Wen Shu replied, "I didn't take anyone else's; this is mine."

"Your things, how did they end up in someone else's hands? Besides, if you go to someone else's place to take them, they'll call the police and accuse you of theft. How do you explain that?"

"This was originally in my wallet. I lost my wallet a few days ago and even reported it to the police. You guys helped me find it..."

Upon hearing Wen Shu's words, the police officer immediately remembered that they had indeed received a report, and Xiao Lin had been in charge of it at the time.

In the end, only the wallet was recovered, but the person who reported the incident said that something very important was missing from the wallet.

After carefully examining the item, the police found that it was not of high value. Normally, in this situation, mediation is possible, and the matter can be resolved as long as the other party does not pursue the matter.

The police officer asked, "You say this is yours, how can you prove it?"

Inside the mediation room, Zhong Wanwan stood with her arms crossed and a cold smile on her face. She said loudly, "I don't accept mediation. We'll handle this officially. Those who should be sentenced will be sentenced, and those who should be punished will be punished. What's the point of mediation? These days, do thieves get away with it through mediation?"

“This is my stuff…” Wen Shu began.

"Your things? You say they're your things, so they're your things? How could your things be in your uncle's office? What a joke, do you think you can just dismiss it with a simple 'your things'?" Zhong Wanwan said sarcastically.

Wen Shu was extremely anxious. "It's because Li Duo broke his promise. He promised to return the things to me, but he kept breaking his word. I was forced into this situation..."

"Forced into it, hahaha, officer, did you hear what she said? This is the first time I've ever heard someone say that stealing was out of desperation!"

Zhong Wanwan said angrily, "Officer, there's no need to say anything more. I won't accept mediation, and that's it. My attitude is my uncle's attitude. No matter what you say, it won't make a difference!"

With that, Zhong Wanwan stood up and walked away without looking back.

How is Grandma's surgery? How is Rou Rou? What will they do if she can't get out?

Wen Shu looked at the police officer: "Can I make a phone call?"

The police officer stood up: "The case is under investigation, and the cell phone is one of the tools involved in the case."

I initially thought the value was small and the other party would mediate, but they refused to mediate, so further investigation is necessary.

Wen Shu knew she wouldn't be able to go home tonight.

At the kindergarten gate, Wen Rou Rou stood obediently under the parasol, pursing her little lips, with her hands behind her back and her little schoolbag on her back, occasionally looking up at her surroundings.

Officer Lin walked up to the teacher, showed his identification, and said, "Her mother has some personal matters to attend to and has asked me to come and pick up the child. This is my workplace, and this is my letter of authorization. Please take a look."

After confirming the situation several times, the teacher allowed Officer Lin to pick up the child.

Wen Rou Rou, holding Officer Lin's hand, looked up at him and asked, "Where is Shu Shu?"

"She's busy and can't come pick you up for the time being. Do you know what a police chief looks like? How about I take you to visit the police station?"

Wen Rou Rou was indeed a little interested, "Okay!"

After settling the child in, Officer Lin inquired about Wen Shu's situation with his colleagues.

"Wen Shu? She can't leave tonight; the other party doesn't agree to mediation." The colleague was also helpless; mediation is the best solution in this kind of situation.

Officer Lin frowned. "Is it valuable?"

“It’s only worth a few dozen yuan, it’s not valuable. She said it was hers, and since the other party wouldn’t return it, she stole it herself. Now the person who reported the case is unwilling to mediate.”

"She also has a three-year-old child. The elderly woman who was reported this morning is her maternal grandmother, who is still undergoing surgery in the hospital. The surgery was not finished when I arrived..."

"There's nothing we can do about it then, we'll just have to wait until tomorrow!"

The Zhong family.

Zhong Wanwan was half-reclining on the sofa, eating fruit.

Soft music played and incense burned, creating a very romantic atmosphere.

Su Ying handed her a tissue to wipe her mouth and said gently, "Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you. You're such a child, so generous and composed outside, but you start acting all spoiled as soon as you get back."

Zhong Wanwan was in a good mood and said with a smile, "It would be too tiring for me to put on an act in front of Aunt Su."

Su Ying smiled but didn't say anything.

Just then, Zhong Wanwan's phone rang. She picked it up and saw it was Li Duo.
