Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life Chapter 643 - 641: Come to My Place

Standing in the yard, Lin Wanwan called the company’s partner lawyer, Tan Qinghui.

Although it was already late at night, given what had happened, there was no worrying about disturbing anyone.

Unexpectedly, when the call connected, Tan Qinghui told her he was at the police station, because Lu Shouyue had inford him to go there.

"Mr. Lu? How did he know about my situation?"

Lin Wanwan was a bit puzzled; she didn’t know that after she was sucked by the broken Space-Ti Gate, Lu Shouyue had just returned and caught a glimpse of her disappearing into the void.

"Yeah, it was Shouyue who captured the robber along with his bodyguard, didn’t you know?" Tan Qinghui was also sowhat surprised.

"Oh, now I know."

Huaxia was not quite the sa as what was shown on TV, where those arrogant tycoons with their lawyers could act condescendingly towards investigators; this scenario doesn’t exist in reality—the law doesn’t allow lawyers to remain at interrogation sites.

When the police and ambulance arrived, the old Tomb Robber still had his last breath. He died shortly after being loaded onto the ambulance, not having the chance to receive blood transfusion or oxygen.

It beca a murder case, and the first scene was naturally cordoned off.

Unable to find the hoowner, Lin Wanwan, only Lu Shouyue arrived with his bodyguard, called the company’s legal departnt and outside collaborators, and a large group went to the police station to give statents.

From Lin Wanwan’s perspective, the case at her house was quite clear: a criminal wielding a gun broke in and was killed in self-defense.

But the police, who were skeptical of everything, wouldn’t just take one side’s word; who knew whose gun it was? It might well be the hoowner’s!

Everything had to be investigated on-site, and conclusions awaited the forensic results.

Tan Qinghui, not being able to enter the site of the statent, was still unsure about the specific progress.

However, he certainly trusted Lin Wanwan and Lu Shouyue, believing that with the current circumstances, the opposing side was entirely responsible for entering with a gun and being killed in defense; the most they would need to do is provide statents.

Not to ntion the thief wasn’t killed on the spot; he died in the ambulance.

After hanging up with Tan Qinghui, Lin Wanwan called her cousin.

Su Yanwei was quite surprised to receive Lin Wanwan’s call in the middle of the night, "Wanwan, what happened?"

It was already midnight, and she wouldn’t call at this hour unless sothing was wrong.

Su Yanwei always maintained good habits, like sleeping and waking early to exercise, being one of the few young people with a healthy lifestyle.

Lin Wanwan had known this since childhood because Su Yanwei would co to their grandparents’ house to wake her up from her laziness.

"It’s like this, a thief broke into my house today, and the police have already caught him.

The second-floor terrace door is damaged, and so decorations upstairs are dirty or broken. Could you co over in the next few days to help hire people to fix things, replacing what needs to be replaced?

I can’t miss my classes in the Ancient City; I have to return there tomorrow, so I’m entrusting this to you."

Listening to Lin Wanwan’s casual words, Su Yanwei didn’t feel the situation was severe; he just cursed the frequent burglars targeting Lin Wanwan’s house.

"Wanwan, your house keeps getting robbed; it’s been targeted. Should I move over and help watch the house?"

Lin Wanwan said, "That’s a good idea; I’ll trouble you then. After handling the house invasion, you can stay in my old room; it’s been converted into a tatami room now."

"Okay."

After finishing the call with Su Yanwei, Lin Wanwan went to the yard gate to open it; the house reeked of blood, and it wasn’t suitable for anyone to stay tonight.

Moreover, the police had already sealed it, so even if she didn’t mind the sll, she couldn’t stay there.

So Lin Wanwan planned to drive to a hotel and make do for the night, not even thinking of changing out of her pajamas.

As she opened the yard gate, she happened to see Lu Shouyue running over.

Lu Shouyue approached and hugged Lin Wanwan, burying his head in her shoulder, saying softly, "It’s so good that you’re okay."

"I... I’m okay."

Through her thin spring blouse, Lin Wanwan could feel Lu Shouyue’s intense heartbeat, slightly moved.

She didn’t know Lu Shouyue had arrived in the room at her last mont before transporting, witnessing everything—she was still thinking of covering up.

When Lu Shouyue finished the police statent, the deceased’s identity was confird.

The dead was a Tomb Robber, already on the wanted list.

And this evening in the Ancient City, his accomplice was broken down during police questioning and confessed to a massive burial case.

So now, the reward for capturing the Tomb Robber had reached 100,000, and the level of his warrant had been raised to the highest.

Lu Shouyue and Lin Wanwan killed him in self-defense (their fresh and clear fingerprints were found on the sword hilt during the investigation), and might even receive the bounty, inadvertently becoming good citizens aiding the police investigation.

For this reason, Lu Shouyue quickly finished the statent and left the police station.

Since Lin Wanwan had disappeared before Lu Shouyue, he had been worried about her the entire hour.

Though outwardly calm and handling matters smoothly, his heart had been tense all along.

Just coming out from the statent room, Tan Qinghui told him Lin Wanwan had called, knowing she returned to the present day, he rushed over imdiately.

Because there were many things to discuss, better said in person, he didn’t call Lin Wanwan in advance.

When he arrived at her house, Lu Shouyue hadn’t even rung the doorbell before the door opened from inside.

The mont Lin Wanwan appeared intact, Lu Shouyue couldn’t control himself; instinctively, he hugged her, inhaling deeply the delicate fragrance from her, feeling his soul returning to his body.

After a mont, Lin Wanwan gently pushed away, asking, "Mr. Lu, do you know everything?"

Lu Shouyue looked at Lin Wanwan, saying, "Yes, it’s a long story. Your house is temporarily sealed; why not...co to my house, and I’ll explain slowly?"

Lin Wanwan shook her head, saying, "No need for the trouble. I’ll just book a room at a nearby hotel and sit in your car to talk."

Lu Shouyue paused before saying, "Wanwan, so things aren’t convenient to discuss in the car. Better co to my place; I’ll take you to the police station tomorrow morning."

Lin Wanwan frowned, "Do I also have to go to the police station? They broke in, and I acted in self-defense; I shouldn’t be detained, right?"

"You won’t be detained," Lu Shouyue concisely replied, "But Wanwan, I have other things to discuss with you."

Thinking it over, Lin Wanwan nodded, saying, "If that’s the case, I’ll trouble you tonight then."

"No need to be polite with ."
