Chapter 236 He's the Thief

Huang Feng soon came over with a young man in a blue uniform.

The young man was Fang Yongjie, a train conductor on duty. Upon hearing that someone's watch had been stolen, Fang Yongjie's first thought was that it would never be found.

Theft on trains is a common occurrence. Nine times out of ten, the stolen items are never recovered.

Every time the train conductor deals with this kind of thing, not only do they fail to catch the thief, but they also get themselves into a lot of trouble.

However, the train conductor's professionalism compelled him to take the matter seriously.

When Huang Feng and Fang Yongjie arrived, they saw Su Nuannuan with red and swollen eyes, looking down and about to cry.

People around were whispering and speculating about who the thief was.

Fang Yongjie noticed with his sharp eyes that all the passengers around him were clutching their backpacks and clothes tightly, and their eyes were subtly observing the people around them.

It was as if they could find the thief any second now.

Fang Yongjie twitched his lips.

However, he quickly located the owner.

Fang Yongjie came to Su Nuannuan's side and asked with concern.

"Hello, comrade. I'm train conductor Fang Yongjie. Is this the watch you lost?"

Hearing the sound, Su Nuannuan finally looked up.

The first thing that came into view was a young man wearing a blue train uniform. Although his appearance was ordinary, he was very energetic.

Looking into Huang Feng's clear and upright eyes, Su Nuannuan silently gave him a thumbs up.

Su Nuannuan quickly composed herself, sniffed, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said in a hoarse voice.

"Yes, it's me. My watch was fine yesterday. Today, it's gone. Comrade, you must help me find it. This watch was bought for me by my parents after scrimping and saving. If I lose it, they will definitely beat me to death."

After saying that, Su Nuannuan started to sob.

Su Nuannuan, covering her face and pretending to cry, silently apologized to Su Jianjun and Chen Xiuting.

To outsiders, Su Nuannuan's actions were not exaggerated at all.

Keep in mind that at that time, a watch was equivalent to a car in Su Nuannuan's previous life. In short, it was very valuable.

Fang Yongjie had only been working for a short time and was full of enthusiasm. Although he had dealt with similar troublesome matters several times before, it still couldn't extinguish the fire in his heart.

Now, hearing the pitiful little girl Su Nuannuan's tearful complaints, Fang Yongjie's inner desire to save the people was instantly ignited.

Seeing the increasingly excited expression on Fang Yongjie's face, Su Nuannuan knew that her plan was about to succeed.

Then, Fang Yongjie asked Su Nuannuan about the whole process of how her watch was stolen.

Su Nuannuan concealed everything that was detrimental to her and told everything she could.

Of course, Fang Yongjie didn't just listen to Su Nuannuan's answer. He asked several other people as well.

The woman next to Huang Feng and Su Nuannuan added details.

After finishing his questioning, Fang Yongjie quickly focused his attention on Zhou Zheng, the person sitting next to Su Nuannuan.

Based on the evidence they collected, many people saw Su Nuannuan take out a watch yesterday.

At this moment, Zhou Zheng, who was originally sitting opposite Su Nuannuan, switched places with the middle-aged woman next to Su Nuannuan.

Although the middle-aged woman said Zhou Zheng meant well, Fang Yongjie noticed that Zhou Zheng didn't switch seats with the other women with children, but only with the middle-aged woman next to Su Nuannuan.

This is clearly a very unreasonable detail.

It's important to understand that Su Nuannuan's row was all women, so it would be inappropriate for the men to switch places. However, Zhou Zheng still switched.

Also, there was an old woman with two children sitting diagonally opposite Zhou Zheng. The three of them were sharing a seat, looking quite pitiful. However, Zhou Zheng didn't seem to feel sorry for them or switch seats with them.

Therefore, Fang Yongjie quickly realized that Zhou Zheng had a problem.

Fang Yongjie didn't voice his suspicions immediately. Instead, he stared intently at Zhou Zheng, scrutinizing his attire. It was at this moment that Zhou Zheng woke up.

The effects of the anesthetic had long worn off, but Zhou Zheng hadn't recovered yet. Although he was conscious, his body was still somewhat limp.

Once he regained his strength, Zhou Zheng sat up.

Although Zhou Zheng was subdued yesterday, he still remembered how Su Nuannuan treated him yesterday.

He couldn't understand why Su Nuannuan, a young girl, could so easily pin him down.

Moreover, he then fell asleep and felt nothing at all.

This is a very scary thing.

Zhou Zheng's first thought after regaining consciousness was that he was probably being double-crossed!

This made Zhou Zheng very anxious. He had only stolen about a hundred yuan in his previous attempts. If he had been robbed, all his efforts over the past few days would have been for nothing.

At this moment, Zhou Zheng had completely stopped thinking about Su Nuannuan's watch.

He sat up and began rummaging through his shirt. Oblivious to the atmosphere around him, he unbuttoned his collar and started turning over the inside pockets.

However, Zhou Zheng was unaware that Fang Yongjie was watching his every move.

There are intelligent people on the train.

When Su Nuannuan lost her watch, some people suspected the shifty-looking Zhou Zheng. However, no one dared to be the first to speak out.

When some people saw Zhou Zheng wake up, he took off his clothes in public, and those who couldn't stand it wanted to say something.

But Fang Yongjie stopped them all with a sharp look.

Upon seeing this, a smile flickered across Su Nuannuan's eyes.

I originally thought I would have to guide people to search Zhou Zheng's pockets.

Unexpectedly, the thief himself jumped into the trap she had prepared for him.

When Zhou Zheng opened the pocket, he immediately felt that the weight inside was wrong.

However, he was too anxious to think too much about it.

The thought that all his hard work over the past few days had been for nothing made Zhou Zheng's eyes practically spit fire with anxiety.

He paid no attention to his surroundings and took everything out of his pockets.

Besides the money he had previously put away, there was also Su Nuannuan's metallic watch.

As soon as the watch appeared, someone quickly recognized it as the watch that Su Nuannuan had lost yesterday.

An older woman, who had been watching the commotion closely, exclaimed loudly the moment the watch appeared.

"Oh! This watch is exactly the same as the one the little girl lost yesterday."

The woman's shrill voice immediately drew everyone's attention.

Zhou Zheng was so startled by the old woman's shout that he dropped his money and watch on the ground.

Su Nuannuan also pretended to look over.

Knowing it was her turn to perform, Su Nuannuan covered her mouth with her hand, looking incredulous, and said...

"It...it looks just like my watch!"

After saying that, Su Nuannuan looked at Fang Yongjie with a pleading expression.

By this point, many people have come to understand.

The little girl's watch was clearly stolen by Zhou Zheng!
Fang Yongjie also came to this conclusion in his mind.
