When everyone heard this, they turned around and saw that the door of 1602 was opened and Lin Mai was standing at the door.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, Lin Mai felt nervous for a moment, but then she forced herself to calm down.
She took a few steps forward, raised her head slightly, and said to Officer Tan Zhen, "Comrade police officer, I can be a witness. I saw it all last night. I saw Xia Shige hurriedly running out of the elevator... Her mask accidentally fell off at the time, so I recognized her."
As soon as Lin Mai finished speaking, Xia Shige turned around and looked at her.
In Lin Mai's slightly nervous eyes, Xia Shige stared into her eyes and said word by word: "Lin Mai, do you know that you are giving false testimony now? Have you considered the consequences of giving false testimony?"
Lin Mai seemed to be burned by Xia Shige's gaze. She avoided his eyes in panic, not daring to look him in the face.
Seeing this, Song's mother hurriedly took a few steps forward and stood in front of Lin Mai.
Song's father pointed at Xia Shige and said to Officer Tan Zhen with dissatisfaction: "Comrade police, I suspect she is threatening the witness!"
Then, Song's mother turned around and patted Lin Mai's hand. She said to Lin Mai with a look of satisfaction: "Thank you, kind girl. We are strangers. Thank you for coming out to testify for us!"
Then Song's mother turned to look at Officer Tan Zhen and said, "Comrade police, we don't know this girl. We just moved here. Our words can't be used as evidence, but her words can be used as evidence, right?"
Officer Tan Zhen ignored Song's parents. He looked at Lin Mai behind Song's mother and asked, "You said you saw everything? Do you have any evidence?"
Lin Mai was a little afraid to look Officer Tan Zhen in the eye. She lowered her head slightly and said, "Because Xia Shige looked very panicked at the time, I was a little worried about her, and I called her and asked her why she was going out so late... I remember the elevator door was not closed at the time, and the elevator surveillance should have recorded it."
Upon hearing this, Song's mother quickly took out her phone and said, "Yes, yes, she is right. There is indeed a voice at the end of the video. Police comrade, look, it was recorded on the surveillance camera."
As Song's mother spoke, she replayed the surveillance video in the elevator and turned the volume up to maximum.
At the end of this surveillance video, before the elevator door closed, a woman's voice could be heard outside the elevator: "Xia Shige, why are you going out so late?..."
Upon seeing this, Officer Tan Zhen took the phone from Song's mother, dragged the progress bar to the end, and listened to it repeatedly several times.
Then Officer Tan Zhen frowned slightly. The voice at the end of the video did match Lin Mai's voice...
Seeing the situation develop to this point, Song's father and mother both had a look of complete victory on their faces.
Song's father pointed at Xia Shige and said to Officer Tan Zhen, "Comrade police, now we have both witnesses and physical evidence. We can finally convict her, right? We demand that her family compensate us for our losses and move out of the community!"
Song's mother also nodded and echoed, "Yes, police comrade, there is a thief living in the community. If she doesn't move out, the rest of us won't feel at ease living here!"
Before Officer Tan Zhen could say anything, Lin Mai suddenly spoke up, "Xia Shige, I just heard that you have to compensate the owner for six figures in losses... Can you afford that money now?"
Lin Mai raised his hand and ruffled his bangs, then chuckled and suggested, "If you can't come up with the money, you can sell me the house at 1606, and I'm willing to buy your house. That way, you can compensate the victim for his economic losses, and you can use the remaining money to find a new place to live."
Lin Mai's eyes lit up with excitement when he thought that Xia Shige's large apartment would soon belong to him!
Looking at the triumphant smiles on the faces of the Song family and Lin Mai in front of him, Xia Shige suddenly smiled.
Just now, she was thinking about the white down jacket!
At that time, after she bought the down jacket, the independent designer’s online store went bankrupt and cleared out its inventory.
