Looking at Yu Xiang's greedy and complacent face on the phone screen, Yu Bai didn't feel angry at all, but smiled instead.
This is simply a handle that is delivered to your door!
After the last antique incident, Yu Bai thought that Old Man Yu and Yu Dongshun would come to ask for money immediately.
And she could also naturally ask to "exchange" the antiques for compensation.
However, Old Man Yu did not go directly to ask for money, but chose to disgust her family on the day when Song Yan came to visit.
It's obvious that he wants to ruin Yu Bai's family's reputation first, and then take the opportunity to make trouble about the antiques.
However, Yu Bai fought back against Old Man Yu that day, but he didn't succeed.
Yu Baiben was still thinking about how to get Old Man Yu to talk about the antiques sooner.
Isn’t there a chance now?
As long as she had a reason to go to the Yu family's old house, Old Man Yu would definitely bring up the antiques.
It was just right that she could take this opportunity to completely get back the work injury compensation that her father had embezzled and misappropriated.
Just as Yu Xiang was carrying the stolen money, he thought he had slipped out of the yard without anyone noticing.
Far away in the county police station, another silent contest has begun.
Yu Nian had just parked the truck in the open space designated by the police station when he was led directly to the office building by a young police officer who had been waiting there.
There, he met Zhang Jianshe, the captain of the city bureau's criminal investigation team.
Without much greeting, Zhang Jianshe just looked Yu Nian up and down with his sharp eyes, then motioned him to follow him into an empty interrogation room.
With a bang, the door was closed, blocking out all the noise outside.
Zhang Jianshe didn't let Yu Nian sit down, nor did he ask any questions. He just stood two steps away from Yu Nian, staring at him without saying a word.
That gaze was as sharp as an eagle, as if it could penetrate the skin and flesh and look straight into the depths of the soul.
The air in the interrogation room seemed to be frozen, and only the ticking sound of the second hand of the wall clock was particularly clear.
The silent oppression, like a heavy mountain, slowly pressed down.
This silent confrontation lasted for nearly five minutes.
However, to Zhang Jianshe's surprise, the young man in front of him, apart from being a little reserved at first, quickly calmed down.
She just stood there calmly, allowing him to look at her, her eyes clear, without any dodging or panic.
What Zhang Jianshe couldn't see was that Yu Nian was quietly holding a crystal core in his hand, which was hanging by his side and hidden by the seam of his trousers.
The warm energy, like a trickle of water, slowly flowed into his limbs and bones.
It not only dispels the fatigue from days of running around, but also brings an indescribable sense of calmness and relaxation.
This confidence derived from a mysterious power made him appear exceptionally calm under the experienced scrutiny of Zhang Jianshe.
In Zhang Jianshe's eyes, this extreme relaxation is almost equivalent to frankness, or in other words... a kind of complete ignorance.
At this moment, the last bit of hope in Zhang Jianshe's heart that the Yu family might be hiding some secret was almost completely shattered.
He could almost conclude that the third son of the Yu family probably knew nothing about the van that fell into the river and the three desperate men who disappeared in the car.
"Tell me," Zhang Jianshe finally broke the silence. "Yesterday, when you were driving along the riverbank at the entrance to the village, what did you see?"
Yu Nian’s answer couldn’t be more concise:
"I saw a large section of the guardrail on the side of the road was broken, as if it had been hit by something. I didn't see anything else."
Zhang Jianshe frowned, but he didn't give up. He asked again, "Is your car equipped with a dashcam? We need to check it."
"The car is new and we just picked it up from the city two days ago," Yu Nian replied calmly, "and we haven't had time to install the dashcam yet."
Zhang Jianshe was completely speechless.
The clue seems to be interrupted again.
Just as Zhang Jianshe was rubbing his brows and preparing to ask some questions from a different angle, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang rapidly.
He glanced at the caller ID and answered immediately.
I don’t know what was said on the other end of the phone, but Zhang Jianshe’s face suddenly changed drastically and his eyes became extremely solemn in an instant.
"What did you say?! Are you sure?!"
After receiving a positive answer, he hung up the phone abruptly, without even having time to say another word to Yu Nian. He turned around and rushed out of the interrogation room like a gust of wind.
"Boss?" The team members outside looked confused.
Zhang Jianshe said nothing, but just walked out quickly and took out his car keys.
In a blink of an eye, the police car roared out of the police station compound, leaving Yu Nian in the interrogation room, who was also somewhat confused.
Almost at the same time, Yu Bai, who was far away in the city, felt his cell phone vibrate in his pocket.
The name jumping on the screen is Professor Li.
