Chapter 68: What’s in this trash can?

His arm trembled slightly, but the meticulous perception of his body brought about by his fingers allowed Su Yun to control his arm very well.

Then, Su Yun placed the cup on the table as if nothing had happened. He casually took a tissue and wiped his hands. He sighed as if nothing had happened.

“An ancient tomb from more than 2,000 years ago. This should be considered a major cultural relic theft, right?”

Zhou Xiaoxiao nodded. Perhaps she was a little thirsty, but she finally pulled open the tab of the coke with a puff. She took a small sip and said solemnly, “Yes, this lost national treasure cultural relic is very old and has a lot to do with it. It can be said that this group of people is guilty of a heinous crime. If they are caught, they will at least be sentenced to life imprisonment or even shot to death!”

Su Yun added indignantly, “That’s right. These people are really too detestable!

However…”

Su Yun’s tone changed. “Did they only take a small box with them? Are the other items too big to be transported?”

As he spoke, Su Yun did not forget to pretend to be deep in thought and continue to recall the scene that night.

“Because I remember that night. They were lying on the ground, as if they were trying their best to burrow underground. I think the hole should be very small…”

Zhou Xiaoxiao sighed. “This ancient tomb is very ordinary and doesn’t have anything valuable. Only the missing box and the things inside are the most important.”

As she spoke, Zhou Xiaoxiao turned to look at Su Yun and said extremely seriously, “So, Mr. Su, you must tell us everything you know. Any clues are very important for us to catch the criminal.

So, did you find any other information that night?”

Su Yun pondered for a moment and suddenly slapped his thigh, scaring Zhou

Xiaoxiao. “By the way, I think I heard them talking about the Warring States Bamboo Slip or something… Are they talking about whether it will decay? The grave robbers seem to be very worried…

But I was too far away. I only heard a few words!”

Zhou Xiaoxiao’s expression changed as she said in a low voice, “This is indeed an important clue. It seems that this group of tomb robbers has a purpose.” Was it really a bamboo slip?

“Ah?” Su Yun was surprised. His body relaxed slightly and he secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he pretended to be surprised and said, “It’s really a Warring States bamboo slip? Did I hear wrongly that night?”

Zhou Xiaoxiao shook her head and said helplessly, “It’s indeed an item similar to a bamboo slip, but it might not be a bamboo slip. This is because according to the archaeologist’s analysis of the murals, this item is engraved with something.

“Therefore, there’s a high chance that the thing in the box is a piece of gold foil, but it might also be a yellow turtle shell or a dyed iron tool… Everything is unknown. I can’t be 100% sure.”

Gold foil?

Upon hearing this, Su Yun’s body, which had just relaxed, suddenly stiffened. However, he still leaned against the sofa, but there was a faint bitterness in the depths of his eyes…

Zhou Xiaoxiao’s voice was still coming.

“However, no matter what, the experts can confirm that this cultural relic is very valuable. According to the experts’ speculation, it might be on the same level as treasure cultural relics like the Rectangular Measuring Vessel of Sheng Yang, and the Bianzhong of Marquis Yi of Zeng!”

Su Yun’s expression turned even uglier in secret. He probed,

“Officer Zhou, I’m saying if, hypothetically, for example, someone picked up a national treasure?”

Zhou Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and did not suspect him. She smiled and said, “That will depend on the situation. If we discover that they’re embezzling, there’s a certain possibility of annexing the country’s assets. If they submit it immediately, it will be considered a great merit. Not only will they be rewarded, but they will also receive a certain bonus!”

“Ahem.” Su Yun had just taken a sip of water and accidentally choked. After calming down, he continued to ask, “What if this person accidentally damaged

Zhou Xiaoxiao suddenly looked at Su Yun with surprise in her eyes. She did not know why he suddenly asked this.

However, Zhou Xiaoxiao still explained to Su Yun, “If you discover an unknown item and don’t report it, there’s already the possibility of hiding it on purpose. In addition, if you deliberately destroy it, it will be at least ten years, or even life sentence.

It was because this is a crime of damaging national treasures and cultural relics.

Of course, if someone accidentally destroys a precious cultural relic protected by the ocuntry and causes serious consequences, they will be sentenced to not more than three years of fixed-term imprisonment or criminal detention.”

Su Yun’s body trembled and he felt his heart twitch violently!

Zhou Xiaoxiao asked sharply, “Why? Did you pick up anything?”

“Not really.” Su Yun smiled and waved his hand. He only said indignantly, “I just think that these criminals really deserve to die. It’s not too much to sentence them to death. Not only did they steal such a precious cultural relic, but they also deliberately killed people! Now that I think about the scene back then, I’m still angry.”

Zhou Xiaoxiao did not comment. “Then, Mr. Su, continue telling me what happened next.”

Su Yun sighed, his face full of bitterness. “I was really too afraid that night. After all, I encountered such a group of people in the deep mountains and forests. I really didn’t dare to stay any longer, so I decided to take a detour. When I left, I even heard…

After a pause, Su Yun said with certainty, “I heard that their leader seemed to be instructing us to take good care of the stolen cultural relics and not lose them. Now that I think about it, they actually value them so much…”

Zhou Xiaoxiao nodded repeatedly. She felt that this clue was also very important because through Su Yun’s explanation, she could tell that this group of tomb robbers had such a strong purpose. It was exactly the same as the experts’ analysis. They were heading straight for this cultural relic!

Therefore, they must have protected this lost cultural relic very well and kept it by their side!

“Mr. Su, please continue.”

“Yes…

I slipped away after that, but I didn’t expect them to be so vigilant. One of them actually chased after me!

Fortunately, the road in the mountains is more complicated. In the end, I lost them, so I was lucky to escape…”

A moment later, Zhou Xiaoxiao fell into deep thought after listening to Su Yun’s story.

Su Yun’s detour at that time was very reasonable. No one would casually approach a group of sneaky people if they got lost in the rain. After all, human instincts were to stay away from dangerous and unknown things.

“Do you remember what the person who chased you looked like?”

“It’s too dark to see clearly, but I can tell that he’s not tall and is relatively thin.

I didn’t see his exact appearance.”

Zhou Xiaoxiao was surprised. She felt that it was a little similar to the dead tomb robber, but she could not be sure.

However, it seemed that the time when Su Yun was attacked was most likely before the tomb robbers fought with the third party!

It had to be said that Su Yun was lucky. Otherwise, if he had left the place later, the consequences would have been unpredictable!

Obviously, the preconceived notion did not make her think of Su Yun.

After all, no matter how he looked at it, Su Yun did not look like a person who could kill. Moreover, even Su Yun himself did not know that he had killed someone!

Then, Zhou Xiaoxiao asked about some details and whether she had seen any suspicious cars in the morning.

Su Yun answered smoothly and flawlessly.

—Click.

Zhou Xiaoxiao turned off the recording pen and looked at the time. She stood up and stretched out her hand. “Alright, I’ve more or less understood the situation. I’ve delayed you for so long. I’m afraid the fans have objections.”

Su Yun smiled and shook Zhou Xiaoxiao’s hand. “No, it’s our civic responsibility to help the police catch these despicable grave robbers as soon as possible. I also hate them to the core.”

Su Yun was telling the truth this time.

“I didn’t expect Mr. Su to be so enthusiastic about his country’s responsibilities.

I thank you on behalf of the Hibiscus City Police Station.”

“It’s what I should do.”

Zhou Xiaoxiao stood up and picked up the Coke that she had drunk. She turned around and asked, “Mr. Su, where’s your trash can?”

“Oh, this way.”

Su Yun subconsciously gestured to the trash position.

However, he suddenly seemed to have thought of something. Just as Zhou Xiaoxiao was about to walk behind the sofa, he stepped in front of her.

Zhou Xiaoxiao tilted her head in confusion and asked, “What’s wrong?”

However, in the next second, Zhou Xiaoxiao was stunned.. She seemed to have realized something and looked suspiciously at the trash can behind her…
