I am a super cop

Chapter 3020 Female Thief
In the villa's courtyard, Gu Chen looked around before slowly saying, "When I came in through the gate just now, I noticed there were many security cameras here. Besides, you have security cameras right at your door, so how could there have been a theft?"

"Uh." Faced with Gu Chen's question, Zhu Yang seemed to find it difficult to speak.

Lu Weiwei quickly asked, "Is it because the property management is checking the security cameras? Or is there something else going on?"

"Neither." Zhu Yang shook his head, looking regretful as well.

Officer Wang also noticed something amiss, so he asked Zhu Yang, "So what exactly is going on?"

"Sigh!" At this moment, Zhu Yang also sighed and said helplessly, "Officers, why don't you come in and talk?"

"Okay." Seeing that Zhu Yang seemed to be hiding something, everyone stopped worrying and followed him into the villa.

But as soon as I entered the villa's hall, I found it in a mess, having been moved around.

Many items appeared to have been moved, and the room was rather messy, clearly indicating that a move had taken place.

"Mr. Zhu, is this a move or a theft? What exactly happened?" Yuan Shasha looked around and asked curiously.

"That's how it is." Zhu Yang sighed and said helplessly, "A woman emptied the house. She searched the house and took away all the valuables, as well as some valuable ornaments and high-end furniture."

"No." Officer Wang was also puzzled. "A woman, just like that, emptied your house? She couldn't possibly have moved all that stuff by herself, could she? Did she have an accomplice?"

"No, not exactly." Zhu Yang shook his head.

Officer Wang frowned: "No, you're being too slow. Tell me what's going on."

"If you don't tell us, how will we know how this woman emptied your house? Besides, there are surveillance cameras everywhere in your neighborhood. Does this woman have that much audacity?"

"That's not right." Just as Officer Wang finished speaking, Gu Chen looked up at Zhu Yang and slowly said:

"Mr. Zhu, this woman, is she the one you brought back? You and this woman should know each other, right?"

"Uh..." Seeing that Gu Chen had already guessed some of it, Zhu Yang hesitated for a moment, then sighed, put his hands on his head, and sat down on a wooden chair in the hall in a depressed mood.

Of course, this place should have originally been where a set of high-end sofas was placed, but now it is completely empty.

Zhu Yang sighed and then slowly said, "That's my girlfriend, but we haven't known each other for very long."

"Tell me what happened." Gu Chen pulled out a notepad and picked up a pen to take notes.

Zhu Yang then slowly said, "That woman's name is Zhuang Xue. I met her at a bar."

"I also thought she was pretty and had a good figure, so I chatted with her for a bit and we seemed to get along quite well."

"So, we drank a lot of alcohol together."

"And then what happened?" Gu Chen asked.

"Later, later, just last night, I brought her back here. This is a villa under my name, and we slept together that night."

“But I still have business to deal with during the day, and she just won’t get out of bed. Anyway, I rarely stay in this villa, so I thought I’d let her sleep here a little longer.”

"So I took my own things to the company, but what I didn't expect was that when I got there, I was originally going to check if my new girlfriend was still sleeping?"

"So I turned on the security camera in the villa, but what I saw was my new girlfriend rummaging through the house."

“I didn’t know what she was doing, so I went back in time and found that I had just left home when she got out of bed, looked around at the door, and then started rummaging through the house.”

“They not only searched my room and found all my valuables, including expensive cigarettes and liquor, but they also started ransacking every room. I was stunned, so I called her.”

"Did this woman named Zhuang Xue answer the phone?" Lu Weiwei asked quickly upon hearing this.

"Yes." Zhu Yang nodded silently, and said without further ado:
"She answered the phone."

"What did she say?" Yuan Shasha asked curiously.

Zhu Yang sighed and slowly said, "I asked her what she was doing, and she said she wasn't doing anything."

“I told you not to rummage through things in the house, I have security cameras here that can see it.”

"But she didn't seem to care. She said she wanted to help me tidy up the house, but this wasn't tidying up at all. It was clearly stealing."

"And then what happened? You clearly saw her stealing, and you just let her go?" Officer Wang asked, dumbfounded.

Zhu Yang sighed and slowly said, "I warned her not to rummage through my things, and she agreed, saying she would just look around and help me tidy up."

"She said I didn't like it and that she wouldn't do anything. I saw that she wasn't making any more trouble, so I stopped paying attention and started working on things at my company."

"But around noon, when I checked the surveillance footage again, I was shocked. My house was ransacked, and a lot of furniture was gone. It was like they were moving house."

"Later, I checked the previous surveillance footage and found that she had called a moving company and asked them to move all my valuables out at once."

"I was so angry that I called her, but I found that she had blocked me and I couldn't contact her at all."

"No." Hearing this, Gu Chen also looked puzzled and hurriedly asked Zhu Yang, "Mr. Zhu, isn't she afraid you'll call the police?"

“She’s not afraid.” Zhu Yang shook his head.

"Why?" Gu Chen asked.

"Because, because..."

After hesitating for a moment, Zhu Yang said helplessly, "Because I am also a successful businessman, I feel that she is very special."

“She seems to know all this, so she probably concluded that I wouldn’t dare to call the police, since it would be bad for my reputation if word got out, after all, I am a person of status and position.”

"What exactly do you do?" Lu Weiwei asked curiously after hearing Zhu Yang's question.

Zhu Yang slowly said, "I'm in the business of trading bulk commodities, and I'm also involved in some real estate business and some mining business."

"So your business is pretty big, huh?" Lu Weiwei teased.

"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed." At this moment, Zhu Yang was also embarrassed and couldn't help but sigh, "To be honest, I've dated quite a few women, but I never expected to run into a thief today. It feels like I've been caught off guard."

"That woman dared to empty my house so brazenly because she knew I was too proud to call the police."

"I just can't swallow this, that's why I called the police."

At this point, Zhu Yang also pounded his chest and stamped his feet, as if he couldn't swallow this insult.

Seeing this, Lu Weiwei suppressed a laugh and said slowly, "Calm down first. It's certainly courageous of you to call the police." "If you didn't call the police, you'd be playing right into their hands. Can't you see you've been set up?"

"I only found out now," Zhu Yang said with a look of regret.

"Do you still care about your reputation?" Officer Wang said.

"No, I've already called the police. What do I need to save face for?" Zhu Yang said breathlessly, also annoyed.

"I thought I had met a woman I liked, but it turned out to be all a scheme. I felt like she had this plan from the very beginning."

After a pause, Zhu Yang clasped his right hand over his left palm and said helplessly, "I really didn't expect that she would steal things, but she actually contacted a moving company and emptied my house."

"This is a disgrace, a disgrace! In all my years, I have never seen such an outrageous woman. I can’t swallow this insult."

"She emptied my house of all my belongings and then blocked me. I had invested a lot of feelings in her, but I never expected her to play me like this."

Seeing that Zhu Yang seemed to be so angry he was about to vomit blood, everyone else was trying their best to suppress their laughter.

After calming himself down, Gu Chen slowly said, "Tell me the detailed information about this woman, and I'll make a note of it."

"Also, the reason she so brazenly emptied your house was because she knew you wouldn't dare call the police."

"Then you should call the police. She's miscalculated. We can find her, so please don't worry."

"Thank you." Zhu Yang nodded silently upon hearing Gu Chen's gesture.

Afterwards, Zhu Yang explained in detail to Gu Chen and the others how he met Zhuang Xue at the bar and how Zhuang Xue emptied his house.

After Gu Chen and the others finished recording, they left the villa and returned directly to the police car.

The moment she closed the car door, Lu Weiwei, who had been holding it in for so long, finally couldn't help but burst out laughing:
"This is hilarious! The house was emptied out? This man is ridiculous, and this woman is outrageous."

“Yeah.” Yuan Shasha, who was standing next to her, couldn’t help but suppress her laughter. “You’re saying that if you steal a few valuable items from someone’s house, they’ll just let it go and think they’re just unlucky and won’t call the police.”

"But this woman actually called a moving company and emptied the whole house. Who could tolerate that?"

"No wonder Zhu Yang was so angry that he called the police. How could this woman's thought process be like this?"

"It's a very simple principle." Officer Wang said jokingly, "This woman is probably a repeat offender. She probably knows that rich people like Zhu Yang are afraid to call the police because of their pride."

"In the end, this woman knew something about men like Zhu Yang, which is why she dared to take all of his valuables."

After a pause, Officer Wang added, "But in the end, if you walk by the river often enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet."

“If you do this, some people might not dare to call the police, but what if you run into someone like Zhu Yang who dares to go all out? In the end, this woman is too bold.”

"Hmm." Listening to everyone's analysis, Gu Chen nodded silently and said without further ado:

"The most important thing now is to find this woman named Zhuang Xue."

"Because she openly stole all of someone else's things, and the moving company even sent a truck, it shouldn't be difficult to find her. Ask Brother He to help check the surveillance footage and find out the woman's location."

"Okay." Upon hearing this, Lu Weiwei also took out her phone and started contacting He Junchao.

After a brief conversation, Lu Weiwei hung up the phone and said slowly, "He Junchao is already investigating the surveillance footage. We'll wait here for a while."

Everyone quietly lay back in the car seats and rested for a while.

Shortly after, He Junchao called.

Lu Weiwei swiped to answer the call and asked, "He Junchao, have you found that woman named Zhuang Xue?"

“Found it, in a cheap hotel,” He Junchao said over the phone.

"A budget hotel?" Upon hearing He Junchao's words, Lu Weiwei was taken aback for a moment, but quickly recovered and said without hesitation:

"Hmm, this woman knows how to keep a low profile. She didn't dare to stay in a fancy hotel and found a cheap motel instead, but that won't help her escape."

After a pause, Lu Weiwei asked again, "So, where is that budget hotel located?"

"I'll send you the location directly," He Junchao said over the phone.

"Okay." Lu Weiwei spoke briefly with He Junchao before hanging up the phone.

Not long after, Lu Weiwei received the address from He Junchao on her phone, so she quickly navigated and reminded Gu Chen, "Junior Brother Gu, follow this direction."

"Okay." Gu Chen glanced at the navigation address, then immediately started the vehicle and drove towards the destination.

……

……

The car drove for a full 50 minutes until it reached an area on the outskirts of the city, where it finally found the hotel, a place that didn't look very conspicuous.

Officer Wang said with a faint smile, "Does this woman think she's safe living here? She's delusional."

"Stop talking, hurry up and catch them." Lu Weiwei didn't care about anything else. After getting out of the car, she went straight to the hotel reception.

"Hello, does this person live here?" Lu Weiwei went to the front desk and showed the reporter the surveillance screenshot of Zhuang Xue.

The middle-aged female receptionist squinted at her and slowly said, "It seems so."

"Which room is she staying in?" Gu Chen asked.

"Just a moment, let me check." The middle-aged female receptionist seemed to remember as well, so she quickly checked on the computer and said hastily.

"This person's name is Hu Xue, and she lives in 401, the top floor."

"Hu Xue? Isn't her name Zhuang Xue?" Yuan Shasha asked quickly upon hearing this.

The receptionist then checked again before saying, "There's no mistake, her ID card has the name Hu Xue on it, and she's staying in our cheapest room."

"Hu Xue might be her real name, while Zhuang Xue might be an alias," Officer Wang reminded her.

So Gu Chen asked the receptionist, "How long has she been staying here?"

"I've only been here for two days," the receptionist said.
