Chapter 1445 More than One Person
The military police officer narrowed his eyes and emphasized each word in a deep voice, "Protecting cultural relics is your duty. Don't try to smear us and say it's our fault that the relics were lost! We will never take the blame for this!"
"Okay, now you want to distance yourself from the matter. If it weren't for you, our cultural relics would have been lost?"
Vanessa Campbell's eyes widened with anger. She pointed at the military police in front of her and complained angrily: "I'm going to sue you!"
"You can go and file a complaint. There are no outsiders here. We are the only ones looking for someone. I can also guarantee that our military and police personnel are all here to look for Ms. Nie Yao. No one will touch the cultural relics!"
Seeing them arguing fiercely, Steve strode over and asked in confusion, "What are you arguing about?"
"Steve, now that you're here, please give us some advice!" As soon as Vanessa Campbell saw Steve, she quickly pulled him and frowned to complain about the missing cultural relics.
Steve was surprised when he heard this and thought he had misheard.
"Vanessa, are you sure you're not mistaken? Are there really missing artifacts?"
"Of course I'm not wrong. I didn't discover this alone. The members of our archaeological team checked it together!"
Vanessa pulled a few team members over and said to Steve, "There are too many artifacts. We're still taking inventory, and we can't take them all away at once. Now, look what's happened. Some of the artifacts in the secret room are missing!"
"Then you can't blame us!" the military police added unhappily.
"But the problem is, they disappeared after you showed up!" Vanessa snorted coldly and said unhappily, "It was only a short day. You can't just grow wings and fly away, right?"
"Are you sure you haven't re-inventoryed everything from last night to today?"
The question from the military police made Vanessa stunned and shut up temporarily.
Upon hearing this, Steve couldn't help but look up at the military police officer in front of him and asked hesitantly, "Are you saying that someone sneaked into the archaeological site and stole the artifacts?"
"It's not impossible!" The military officer in front of him nodded slightly and analyzed in a deep voice: "After all, according to speculation, Ms. Nie Yao disappeared after getting in the car to charge. So it's very likely that the enemy had already ambushed her and kidnapped her while stealing the cultural relics!"
"If that's true, then it's very likely that the crime wasn't committed by one person?" Steve frowned and subconsciously looked at Li Jinxing, but found that Li Jinxing was not behind him, but went to check the car where Nie Yao disappeared.
"This case is very complicated. Please give us some time. We still need to report to our superiors!" the military police officer whispered.
Steve nodded quickly and said earnestly, "Okay, please take more action as soon as possible. After all, my senior sister's whereabouts are unknown, and I'm worried about her personal safety!"
"Don't worry!" The military police officer also made a serious assurance and turned to leave.
Steve then said to Vanessa, "Have you counted the lost artifacts?"
"We are going to count it again..." Vanessa Campbell thought for a moment and replied.
"Then you go and count them!" Steve nodded and turned to find Li Jinxing.
Li Jinxing communicated with another military police officer for a while, and also got the mobile phone that Nie Yao had lost under the car seat. He frowned and said nothing.
"Mr. Li..." Steve saw that he was frowning and knew that he was in a bad mood. He called out in a low voice: "This is my senior's phone..."
