After understanding animal language, the villainous girl is guaranteed to become a heartthrob.

Chapter 37: People and people get stolen goods together
Inside the mahjong parlor.

The bald man scrutinized the two men in front of him, one fat and one thin.

It seemed to gradually overlap with the figures of the two thieves in the surveillance footage.

Could this young girl surnamed Jiang really be capable?
The fat man and the thin man felt extremely guilty.

Damn it, I just went to get my things and the police showed up right after. Did they find out?
The skinny man mustered his courage and said, "Officer, it's a misunderstanding. We're good citizens, why would we steal anything?"

“Yes, yes!” the fat man chimed in, “We’re innocent!”

The bald man brandished a search warrant, saying, "Whether it's a false accusation or not, we'll know after we investigate."

ten minutes later.

Got nothing.

Finding nothing, the two tense thieves breathed a sigh of relief.

A smug glint flashed in the skinny man's eyes as he chuckled, "Officer, now you believe me, right? We're good citizens!"

Upon seeing this, the bald man's face immediately turned gloomy and ugly.

He was too impulsive; he actually listened to what a young girl said!
The bald man clenched his fist.

Little Black Swallow flew to Jiang Yuan's side and chirped, "Yuan Yuan, they just hid the gold under those two green tables."

Green table?

Jiang Yuan's eyes darted around, her gaze finally settling on the mahjong table.

"Withdraw!" the bald man said in a deep voice.

"Wait a minute," Jiang Yuan suddenly spoke up, "I know where the stolen goods are."

The bald man no longer believed her. His brows furrowed, and he looked displeased. "Enough! Miss Jiang, we don't have time to play with you!"

"Playing?" Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly. "Captain Zhang, I'm very serious."

"Hey beautiful, don't make baseless accusations!" the skinny man protested. "The fact that the officers didn't find anything proves our innocence!"

“You know you didn’t find anything.” Jiang Yuan’s lips curled slightly as she strode to the mahjong table. “I’m pretty sure you’re the thieves who stole the gold and gemstone necklaces.”

The skinny man said defiantly, "Officer, I'm going to report her for defamation!"

"I'm sorry, your report is unfounded." Jiang Yuan smiled slightly and pressed a function button on the mahjong table. "What I said is true."

The skinny man and the fat man's expressions changed drastically upon seeing this, and fear and unease crept into their eyes.

Dead!
How could she know...

The control panel in the center of the mahjong table rises up.

Jiang Yuan then pressed the function button on another table.

A smile graced her fair face as she calmly said, "The gold and necklace are in here."

Si Heng stepped forward and, sure enough, saw gold bars hidden inside the mahjong table.

He turned his head to look at the bald man. "Captain Zhang, the case is solved."

The skinny man and the fat man looked ashen-faced and filled with regret.

The bald man was incredulous. He walked to Si Heng's side, his eyes falling on the gold bars, and he was utterly shocked.

How did she know?
Along the way, besides petting the cat and feeding the birds, she didn't even make a single phone call.

This is simply amazing.

**
Caught red-handed, the thin man and the fat man confessed their motives.

They overheard Ms. Zhou talking to someone, saying that she had a hundred gold bars at home and had also bought a gemstone necklace worth tens of millions at an auction.

Everyone assumed that was the truth.

On the day Jiang Yuan went to collect the reward money, she met the owner of the lost item, Zhou Shuyu, at the police station.

She wore a Chanel-style jacket and flared jeans, all in black, elegant and simple.

“Miss Jiang, I heard that you found the gold bars and necklace. Thank you so much.” Zhou Shuyu extended her hand to her.

“I’m also here to collect the bounty, you don’t need to be so polite.” Jiang Yuan, wearing a camel-colored long trench coat, with her long curly hair cascading over her shoulders and 5cm black high heels, stood half a head taller than Zhou Shuyu. As she spoke, she grasped Zhou Shuyu’s hand with her slender, pale fingers.

Zhou Shuyu was surprised by her frankness and felt more favorably toward her. "Miss Jiang is also a person of strong character."

Just as Jiang Yuan was about to remind her to be careful of the person next to her, a voice came from behind.

"Shuyu." The young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses walked up to Zhou Shuyu. "Didn't I tell you to wait for me to come together?"

Zhou Shuyu chuckled and said, "Nan Yue, I can't help it, I was just too anxious."

Upon hearing this, Li Nanyue affectionately ruffled her hair: "I was worried about you coming alone."

"It's alright," Zhou Shuyu said with a smile. "This is a police station, don't worry."

Jiang Yuan watched the two interact quietly.

If she hadn't known that the jewelry theft was planned by this man, she might have thought he was a good man who loved his girlfriend.

Zhou Shuyu introduced, "Miss Jiang, this is my boyfriend, Nan Yue. The gold bars and necklace were found by this Miss Jiang."

Li Nanyue looked at Jiang Yuan, a hint of malice flashing in his eyes behind his glasses, and smiled, "Miss Jiang, it's all thanks to you."

Damn it, this bitch ruined my plans!
Jiang Yuan said calmly, "I was just lucky."

She looked at Zhou Shuyu, "Miss Zhou, would it be convenient for us to talk in private?"

Although she didn't know why Jiang Yuan was avoiding Li Nanyue when talking to her, Zhou Shuyu still nodded.

Li Nanyue stared at Jiang Yuan's back, his eyes like those of a venomous snake.

Upon reaching the police station entrance, Zhou Shuyu spoke first: "What does Miss Jiang want to say to me?"

Jiang Yuan glanced at Li Nanyue inside and slowly said, "Miss Zhou, I learned by chance that this theft case is related to your boyfriend. You may not believe it, but it's always good to be careful."

Zhou Shuyu stared at her in astonishment, "This..."

Jiang Yuan smiled faintly, turned around and walked into the police station.

Li Nanyue stared at her, his gaze filled with hostility.

Jiang Yuan ignored him and was about to leave after receiving the reward money when the bald policeman came towards her.

She nodded slightly and greeted him, "Team Leader Zhang."

"Miss Jiang," Captain Zhang invited her to have coffee nearby.

Jiang Yuan said calmly, "No need for coffee, Captain Zhang, just say what you have to say."

"Shall we talk in the conference room?"

"Row."

In the meeting room, Captain Zhang apologized to Jiang Yuan for questioning her yesterday, saying, "I was offended, I'm sorry, Ms. Jiang."

"It's alright," Jiang Yuan said nonchalantly. "I understand."

Team Leader Zhang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she didn't hold it against him.

This Miss Jiang is so capable; we might need her help with any tricky cases we encounter in the future.

He really couldn't believe it if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes.

This young girl is incredibly talented.

Before leaving, Jiang Yuan left a message: "Captain Zhang, there are actually more than two thieves."

Team Leader Zhang was holding his thermos, about to drink some water, when he heard this and was completely stunned.

What do you mean?
There were more than two thieves?
Zhou Shuyu was also disturbed by Jiang Yuan's words.

That evening, Li Nanyue embraced his girlfriend on the sofa. "Baby, why are you so absent-minded today?"

Zhou Shuyu stiffened, a hint of unease flashing in her eyes. "Really? I'm fine."

Li Nanyue rested his chin on her shoulder. "Isn't it a good thing to find the gold bars and necklace?"

“That’s a good thing.” Zhou Shuyu subconsciously avoided his touch, stood up and said, “I was just thinking about work. I’m a little tired. I’ll go back to my room first.”
