Chapter 942 - Lying!
”Good news!”
Old Liu smiled. ”Let's talk inside!”
That person glanced at Old Liu and could not help but feel a little doubtful. ”You are …”
Ji Feng and the others didn't say anything because they couldn't speak that standard Taiwanese accent of theirs. It was obvious from the sound of it that they weren't natives. Since it was already so late, the owner of the boat would definitely be wary of them.
However, Old Liu took out his ID again and said, ”Police, I'm here to look for you for information.”
The owner of the boat was shocked, ”Police? I'm not breaking the law, am I? ”Why...”
”Don't worry, it's not your problem. I'm just looking for you to understand some things.” Old Liu chuckled. He had a kind face, and his smile gave people a sense of trust.
”... ”Well, come on in!” The owner nodded. Towards the police, ordinary citizens were more or less convinced, ”It's a little messy, don't mind it, just sit down and take a seat!”
”I'm fine.”
Old Liu smiled. The life of fishermen was very difficult, especially in recent years. Many fishermen had to travel far in order to reap any rewards. However, with the provocation of the neighboring countries, such as the Philippines, the days of fishermen became even more difficult.
The interior of the cabin was indeed messy, and there was even a fishy smell coming from it. However, Ji Feng and the others didn't mind at all and casually found a seat to sit down.
The owner was a bit nervous. As soon as he sat down, he couldn't help but ask, ”Officer, why did you come to find me …”
”You don't have to be so nervous. We're just looking for you to get some information.” Old Liu chuckled and comforted the owner, then asked, ”It's like this, about half a month ago, you had obtained a black stone and then sold it to a rich family's young master, right?”
”Ah?!”
The owner of the boat was startled, his eyes looking somewhat confused: ”Really? I don't remember exactly. ”
Ji Feng couldn't help but smile. This owner seemed to be honest and honest, but he was also a shrewd person. When Old Liu asked earlier, the owner's eyes flashed a few times and then said he couldn't remember clearly.
Clearly, the owner not only remembered them, but he also remembered them very clearly.
Old Liu said, ”Don't worry, it's not illegal for you to sell rocks. We're only looking for you to investigate the stone's origin. Did you get it yourself, or did someone give it to you?”
The owner shook his head. ”I really don't remember. Did you find the wrong person?”
As I said, this matter has nothing to do with you. It's your freedom to sell stones, and that's not illegal. We just came here to investigate, and you might not know that the stone belonging to that rich young master has been stolen!
The owner was stunned, but he still shook his head and said, ”I don't know what you're talking about. You really found the wrong person.”
Old Liu said, ”Captain, you probably don't know the seriousness of the situation, right? Let me put it this way, that rich guy immediately called the police after losing the stone, and … ”
The captain didn't speak and showed no interest in the matter.
”He suspects that you may have stolen the stone!” Old Liu suddenly said.
”What?!”
The owner of the boat immediately became anxious, ”Nonsense! Why would I steal his stones? Besides, I don't even know where he lives, nor do I know who he is.
Ji Feng and the rest laughed inwardly. The owner just said that they had mistaken him for someone else, but now that they had suspected him, they started to call him 'he'. It was obvious that he had seen that rich young master before.
The Alpha Ore was the one he sold to Bao Weisheng!
Old Liu said, ”Captain, that rich young master said that only you and him know about that stone. Of course, he couldn't have stolen the stone himself. Then, you could have stolen it!”
”He's slandering us!” ”I did not steal his stone!”
”But if they suspect you so much, what will you do?!” Old Liu shrugged, ”You have to explain the situation to us in detail. Otherwise, we'll have to invite you to the police station for a talk!”
”I'm innocent!”
The owner of the boat hurriedly said innocently, ”Officer, please don't wrongly accuse that good person. Yes, I did sell the stone to him, but that was for free, and then I never saw that person again. I don't know where he lives …”
Ji Feng and the others glanced at one another and finally admitted it!
”I understand!”
Suddenly, the captain's voice was raised by a few notches. Anger shone in his eyes as he said, ”I understand now!”
Old Liu asked, ”What happened?”
The captain didn't answer, but asked, ”If I say so, you must trust me.”
