Chapter 178: Chapter 150: Absurd Talk? (Please Subscribe)

The moon was suspended high, its soft silver light spreading across the ground, veiling Modu in a hazy, light gauze.

The neon lights on the street were exceptionally bright, weaving a colorful tapestry of light and shadow. The green plants inside the police station swayed gently in the breeze, rustling softly, carrying the unique freshness of the night mingled with a hint of coolness that brushed Lin Chuan’s face.

Lin Chuan wore a simple, thin white shirt; however, being in the prime of his youth, he didn’t feel the chill at all. On the contrary, he found the night breeze refreshing, with the faint scent of gardenia flowers infiltrating his nostrils.

The outside air was indeed much better than that inside the interrogation room.

That was Lin Chuan’s thought.

“Bro, you’re finally out.”

Upon seeing Lin Chuan come out, Old Bai breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Chuan was able to be released, and he had played a part in it.

It turned out that after the “Qing dynasty Chinese tangled branch pattern thin-walled jade vase” had been broken, when Old Bai rushed over from another exhibition area, Lin Chuan and Youyou were already preparing to leave the venue with the police.

Old Bai had to inquire around before he understood the whole situation.

Without time to think further, he thought to find someone relatively professional to understand the specific criminal penalties.

Then, he quickly thought of Shen Qianqian.

Shen Qianqian, who had saved his life on a country road in Lincang City, Yundian Province, along with Lin Chuan.

Knowing that Shen Qianqian was also in Lin Chuan’s reader group, Old Bai immediately reached out to her through a private chat to explain Lin Chuan’s current predicament.

Shen Qianqian didn’t hesitate and reported directly to Zhang Biao.

Zhang Biao couldn’t handle it himself, so he had to report it further up the chain.

In the end, it was Elder Zhong who came forward personally to secure Lin Chuan’s release and to avoid detention while he followed up on the investigation of the case.

After all, Lin Chuan was a talent from Han River Province.

If he really fell because of this, it would be a loss for Han River Province.

“Someone posted bail, so no spending the night inside,” Lin Chuan smiled.

“I just heard from your sister-in-law, did you say that artifact was a fake?” Old Bai couldn’t help asking.

“Yes.”

Lin Chuan nodded his head.

“Old Lin, if that artifact is really a fake, I’ll go back tonight and gather some funds to settle this matter,” Old Bai pondered for a moment before speaking.

Old Bai thought he could pool some money, borrow some more, and settle Lin Chuan’s case first.

As long as it wasn’t a genuine article, but a replica, compensating should not be too costly.

To him, Lin Chuan was a lifesaver, and besides, he knew that the value Lin Chuan could create far exceeded that of the “Qing dynasty Chinese tangled branch pattern thin-walled jade vase.”
