Chapter 30: The Willing One Takes the Bait



Because he had an appointment with Officer Li, he sent her to the coffee shop: "Give me my phone. I'll pick you up after you finish your talk."

She reached out to take his phone and then went into the cafe. She always suspected that this man was using all means to monitor her.

Officer Li and Shan Cong were very surprised to see her like this. Shan Cong asked, "Did you have a car accident?"

"You guessed it right," she sat down and asked the waiter for a cup of coffee, "you have a discerning eye for price."

"You can still joke, it seems like everything should be fine," said Officer Li.

"Not bad. Yesterday you said you could find a way to get that bronze artifact out."

"Of course you can, but it requires some formalities." He glanced at her and said, "Why don't you tell me how you want to use this thing?"

"Those who are willing will take the bait," Shan Cong seemed to understand her intention, "just like two magnets, the cathode and anode will definitely attract each other."

Mu Zishan nodded: "That's about what I mean."

Officer Li thought about it and, although he didn't completely agree with their argument, he felt it was worth a try. This time, he still had to convince his superiors to grant him this authority.
