As the two were talking, Tang Yan noticed that their eyes moved around, as if they were exchanging some information, or perhaps just having normal eye contact.
The feeling happened so quickly that Tang Yan didn't catch any useful information.
The man sitting at the desk, called Director Yang by the deputy captain, exchanged a quick glance with his subordinate and waved to him.
"Alright, everyone stay here, you go down and do other things first!"
The former deputy captain stood at attention and saluted in the direction of Director Yang.
"Yes, Director Yang!"
After saying that, he turned and gave instructions in the direction of Tang Yan.
"Comrade, this is our director. Last night's case has been handed over to Director Yang personally. If you have any questions or concerns, our director will explain them to you. I'm leaving now!"
When Tang Yan heard that the case from last night was handed over to the director for handling, his eyes lit up and he thought, this woman Ah Yue is in trouble now, big trouble, but he still said it calmly.
"Okay, thank you for your help, police officer!"
The captain didn't say anything, just smiled and nodded at him as a farewell, then turned and left the director's office, closing the door considerately.
The moment the door was closed, the office suddenly became quiet. The young director sitting on the chair did not say anything, but just stared at Tang Yan who was standing in the office.
That gaze seemed to be scrutinizing, sizing up, and probing. All kinds of inexplicable emotions were intertwined together, and there was also an invisible sense of oppression.
Tang Yan suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the room became oppressive, and it seemed that breathing was a little difficult.
It turns out that the auras of superiors are different. Tang Yan was also a superior, so his aura was naturally no less impressive than the other's. However, Director Yang's gaze on him was like that of a battlefield, a sharp, bloodthirsty look that made Tang Yan extremely uncomfortable. He coughed twice and spoke first.
"Hello, Chief Yang. I'm the witness and reporter of the burglary last night. I brought the suspect and the stolen property to the police station to report the crime. I came here today to learn about the progress of the case."
Since the case was taken over personally by the top leaders of the Public Security Bureau, it must be no small matter. Tang Yan was a little curious at this moment. What kind of huge mistake did that woman A Yue make?
After Tang Yan finished speaking, the other party did not speak, but stared at him. There was a strange silence in the atmosphere at the scene.
Director Yang stood up and walked slowly towards them from behind his desk. The young man was tall and straight, with a military air. He was about 1.88 meters tall, a few centimeters taller than Tang Yan, but his aura was enough to fill the entire office.
The young Director Yang walked around Tang Yan twice at a leisurely pace, with his eyes lowered, as if he was trying to sense the impetuous aura of Tang Yan, and as if he was trying to consume each other's patience.
Tang Yan stood there neither servile nor arrogant, with his back straight, feeling the thumping footsteps of Director Yang beside him. Each footstep seemed to step on his heart, like... a mental tug-of-war before an interrogation.
Interrogation? As soon as this thought popped into Tang Yan's mind, he was shocked by his own thoughts. He was an innocent citizen and a kind-hearted person who bravely stood up for justice. Why should he be interrogated?
He just delivered the burglary suspect and the stolen goods to the police station last night, saving the police a lot of trouble. Logically, the police station should have awarded him a banner, so how could they possibly interrogate him?
But Director Yang's nonchalant attitude towards him made Tang Yan feel a little uneasy for no reason.
Finally, when Tang Yan's breathing became rapid, Director Yang spoke, but what he said was completely unrelated to Tang Yan's question.
"Tang Yan, president of a bank in City A, graduated from China University of Finance six years ago. He's now 26 years old. He specializes in finance and international currency exchange. His family is wealthy, making him a true golden bachelor!"
Director Yang listed all of Tang Yan's strengths and personal resume in just a few words, which made Tang Yan confused. He turned around and looked at Director Yang with a burning gaze.
"Chief, I'm not here to check the household registration. I'm here to find out what happened to the burglary last night. You're saying this without knowing anything, and you thought I was the suspect."
Director Yang smiled and extended his hand to him, introducing himself.
"Hello, Tang Yan. Let me introduce myself. My name is Yang Kun, and I'm the director of the Public Security Bureau in City A. I'm sharing your life story because I want to tell you that the reason I'm trying to get to know you is because of the burglary last night."
Tang Yan: “…”
Did he have anything to do with last night's theft? Shouldn't we focus on investigating Ah Yue? Why did he get involved?
Tang Yan looked at the hand Yang Kun extended, feeling completely confused, with doubts in his eyes almost overflowing from his eyes.
Yang Kun smiled, held Tang Yan's hand, and said directly.
"I know you must be confused right now. Why is it that you are involved in last night's burglary case, even though you were the one who bravely reported it?"
Tang Yan shook hands passively and nodded subconsciously.
"That's right. I'm innocent of the incident last night. I just witnessed a burglary and arrested the man, bringing him here red-handed."
Having said that, Tang Yan stared at Yang Kun with sharp eyes and said directly.
"By the way, where's the suspect I brought in last night? She should be able to prove my innocence. I just caught her on the street. I even wore gloves when I brought her in because I was afraid of leaving fingerprints on the stolen goods and disrupting the police's investigation process."
God bless him, he really didn't do anything bad, he is a good citizen with a clean record.
Yang Kun smiled and nodded, then let go of Tang Yan's hand.
"I know. I've already understood the general circumstances of the case. As for the suspect you mentioned, he's been acquitted!"
Yang Kun's words were like a thunderclap that blew Tang Yan to pieces. He stood there in a daze, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. He looked at Yang Kun in disbelief, with a questioning tone in his voice.
"What? Acquitted, you...did you make a mistake?"
Last night, he and a group of brothers witnessed the entire process of Ah Yue's burglary with their own eyes. They caught the person red-handed and sent all the stolen goods to him. They also gave a clear account of the case. How could such a person be acquitted?
