It was almost midnight, but the police station was still brightly lit.
Sydney and Julien went in together, hand in hand.
When the police officer who had called Sydney saw the two enter, he immediately came to greet them and then took them to a room.
"Ms. Raines, the clothes are on the table. Be mentally prepared before checking it." The police officer pointed at the table in the room and said with a sigh.
After all, the clothes were worth millions of dollars. What if Sydney fainted if she was not mentally prepared?
Anyway, if it were his, he definitely could not stand the blow and would faint.
After the police officer asked Sydney to be mentally prepared, Sydney, who had calmed down, became nervous and anxious once again.
She let go of Julien's hand and walked quickly towards the table in the room.
Julien naturally followed her.
Seeing them walk in, the police officer did not stay at the door and followed them.
Sydney walked to the table and saw those two boxes with the dress and suit.
The boxes were intact and still exquisite and beautiful.
But what was inside it might...
Sydney did not continue to think about it. She bit her lower lip and reached out her hand to open one of the boxes.
In this process, her hand was slightly trembling due to nervousness.
Seeing this, Julien put his hand on Sydney's hand and fondled it gently. His gentle voice made Sydney feel extremely safe. "Don't be afraid. Whatever happens, I'm behind you. You can feel free to do whatever you want because I'm here."
Sydney raised her eyes to look at him.
He had a faint smile on his face, which made her restless heart calm all of a sudden.
She thought he was right. No matter what she saw in the boxes, for better or worse, she had to face it.
In that case, she should not have scruples. After all, the outcome was definitely settled. She could not change what was in the boxes.
So she had better calm down.
Moreover, no matter what was in the boxes, she did not need to face it alone because Julien was accompanying her.
After Sydney thought about this, there was a smile on her tense face. "You're right. I am not nervous now."
With that, she took a deep breath and completely calmed down. Her hands were not trembling anymore.
But Julien still did not take his hand away from her. He opened the box together with Sydney.
After they opened the box, when Sydney saw what was in the box, her pupils suddenly shrank as her facial expression greatly changed.
Julien's eyes also flashed across a hint of shock, then his face became extremely gloomy. His body seemed to be emitting the suffocating and frightening cold air, making the police officer behind him feel cold and tremble as he timidly looked at Julien.
Oh! This was a big shot who managed hundreds of thousands of employees.
Julien threw the cloth back into the box. "In the beginning, I thought that the person who robbed the clothes wanted to make money because the clothes could be sold at a high price. But after seeing these strips of cloth, I realize that things are not so simple. That robber did not want to make money. Someone asked him to appear there and rob the clothes. After the person who had given the order got the clothes, that person cut them in order to revenge and vent anger."
"Yes." At this time, the police officer who had not spoken behind them suddenly nodded and spoke. "When we saw the broken pieces of the clothes, we were also astonished. We immediately realized that this was not a simple robbery. As Mr. Flint guessed, if the robber only wanted to make money, even if he had not sold the clothes so soon, he should not have cut them into pieces. After all, these clothes are very valuable. So after seeing these broken pieces of cloth, we could draw the conclusion that person wanted to take a revenge on you on purpose, Ms. Raines."
"A foe, take revenge on me..." Sydney's face was gloomy as she lowered her eyes and began to think about who that person could be.
Julien watched her ponder and didn't bother her. He turned his attention to the police officer next to him. "Where did you arrest the man?"
"At a garbage disposal station," the police officer answered.
Julien frowned fiercely. "Did the man want to make the clothes disappear?"
"Yes." The police officer nodded. “When we arrested him, he was about to throw the clothes into the incinerator, but we stopped him just in time. By then, the dress and suit in the boxes were already like this."
"When you arrested the man, was there anyone else besides him?" Julien asked again in a deep voice.
The police officer shook his head. "No, we only saw him. We arrested him two hours ago, but Ms. Raines called the police six hours ago. That is to say, we do not know his whereabouts, let alone where he went or who he met during these four hours. But we are sure that during these four hours, this person must have met the person who asked him to rob the clothes. After cutting the clothes into pieces, the person who wanted to revenge asked the robber to throw the clothes into the incinerator to make them disappear."
Julien looked dissatisfied after hearing the police officer's words. "Since you have arrested him for so long, haven't you asked him who gave him the orders?"
The police officer smiled bitterly. "Mr. Flint, you do not know that this person is a habitual criminal in our police station. He was often arrested by us due to robbery and theft and never told us his secrets. We are keeping him in the interrogation room and putting pressure on him with bright light. After he collapses psychologically, we can ask him about the results we want to know."
Julien pursed his lips and was about to say something else when Sydney widened her eyes suddenly and said with a gloomy face, "I know who did it."
Julien and the police officer immediately looked at her.
