Du Chenzhou's Adam's apple bobbed, and he suddenly realized that he really couldn't explain it.
Xie Zhiyan's eyes darkened, his gaze locking onto Du Chenzhou.
"Please explain to me why my pocket watch, which I lost on a mission on the border, is now in your possession."
"Border" and "battlefield" are both sensitive terms.
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng, Zheng Yifan, and several police officers who were on duty nearby immediately became alert and all looked over.
Yes, how did something that someone else left on the border battlefield end up in his hands?
Could it be that he went to the border battlefield?
Who exactly is he? And why did he go there?
Ordinary people would be too busy avoiding such places to even consider going near them.
Moreover, unless someone searched the battlefield, how could he possibly have found something that had fallen there by chance?
No matter how you look at it, this is a huge point of doubt.
Many questions arose in everyone's minds as they stared intently at Du Chenzhou, waiting for his answer.
Du Chenzhou subconsciously swallowed, but then immediately realized that at such a moment, even a small detail like swallowing would make him seem guilty.
His hands unconsciously gripped the hem of his clothes tightly, he gritted his teeth and stared intently at Xie Zhiyan in front of him, his eyes filled with complex and turbulent emotions.
All of this happened so suddenly and inexplicably that Du Zhiwei was only now vaguely figuring out what had happened.
It was a pocket watch belonging to Xie Zhiyan with Shu Ying's photo on it that was taken by this man named Du Chenzhou.
Moreover, it seems that Du Chenzhou and Shu Ying have something going on...
So at this very moment, these two men are... fighting over a pocket watch, no, it should be said that they are vying for Shu Ying's affections, going head-to-head?
Du Zhiwei was extremely displeased.
She just couldn't understand what it was about Shu Ying that made these two people so excited about her.
Aren't they all like her, with two eyebrows, two eyes, a nose, and a mouth?
She admitted that Shu Ying was quite pretty, but she wasn't bad-looking either, so why didn't she see any men so eager to fight over her...
But this thought only flashed through my mind for a fleeting, sour moment before my ambition took over again.
Du Zhiwei composed herself, maintaining the composure and dignity she had displayed upon arrival, and stepped forward to mediate.
"Zhiyan, don't be impulsive. Now that we're all in the police station, let's sit down and have a proper talk."
She stepped forward and lowered her voice to Xie Zhiyan.
“In the police station, people can never really run away.”
"But these two foreigners are clearly very protective of Du Chenzhou. They are very likely to be friendly forces, or even sent by allies. It's best not to escalate the conflict."
“I know you have personal feelings, but you still need to consider the bigger picture. Don’t make a scene over a woman.”
Xie Zhiyan agreed with the first half of the sentence, but after hearing the second half, he glanced at Du Zhiwei expressionlessly.
