The waiter continued to size up Wu Tian, then said, "Manager, think about it. This is a high-end hotel. Who are the guests who come and go if not wealthy people?"
"But look at him. His clothes are all from street stalls. Would any rich person wear clothes like these?"
"So, in my opinion, the reason he's willing to stay here is definitely because he's cased the joint beforehand."
"He knew that there was such a valuable vase in our hotel rooms, which is why he came here."
"I've already guessed it. He must have made a mistake while moving the vase, and that's how he broke it!"
Although the waiter's words were all fabricated, the logic wasn't entirely flawed.
The manager immediately believed him and then stared at Wu Tian, saying, "You've heard what he said. Now, explain to me, is what he said true?"
A surge of anger brewed in Wu Tian's chest. If it weren't for his adherence to the law, he would have thrown a punch right then.
He said coldly, "Does it even matter if I say it's true now?"
Wu Tian was just speaking out of anger, but to the manager, it was no different from a confession.
The manager gazed at Wu Tian and said, "Since that's the case, then I definitely can't let you leave."
"You stay here honestly and don't go anywhere. I must call the police and have you arrested!"
A layer of frost seemed to cover Wu Tian's face. He spoke, "You're still a manager with this kind of competence? I suggest you resign yourself."
"I don't have time to play with you. Get out of my way!"
Wu Tian's tone was rather harsh, which the manager felt was an offense.
He angrily exclaimed, "You're a thief, and you're still so arrogant! You're truly lawless! You won't be leaving here today!"
"Is that so?" Wu Tian said coldly. "Believe me, you can't stop me. If you don't believe me, you can certainly try."
After speaking, Wu Tian ignored the manager and walked forward.
Seeing Wu Tian's audacity, the manager couldn't stand it any longer and shouted, "Grab him! Don't let him escape!"
The security guards, hearing the manager's command, immediately lunged at Wu Tian.
But how could these ordinary people be Wu Tian's match?
A cold glint flashed in Wu Tian's eyes, and in an instant, he had taken down all the security guards!
"This!" Seeing this, the waiter and the manager were greatly shocked.
The manager stammered, "You, you, you... What do you think you're doing? How dare you lay a hand on people? Who gave you the courage!"
Wu Tian glanced at him coldly and said, "Do you still think you can stop me now?"
"If you have that confidence, then keep calling for more people until all your men are beaten."
Wu Tian's words were incredibly domineering.
For a moment, both the waiter and the manager felt their courage falter, as if a cold wind had swept into their bodies.
The manager shouted, forcing himself to be brave, "Are you being unreasonable?"
"This is clearly all your fault, and now you're acting like a boss. This is too much!"
"Too much?" Wu Tian said coldly. "This is what you call too much?"
"I'm sorry, but if you still want to stop me, I'll show you what true excess is."
The manager's legs felt like they were about to give out.
He knew he couldn't stop Wu Tian, but he couldn't just watch Wu Tian leave like this.
So, he shouted, "Call the police! Hurry and call the police!"
"We have a police station downstairs. If you call now, he definitely won't be able to escape!"
"Call the police?" Wu Tian chuckled, his cold gaze falling upon the waiter.
"You want to call the police, but the question is, does anyone dare to take that risk?"
The waiter immediately trembled slightly. It was only then that he pulled himself out of his role as a righteous crusader.
He suddenly remembered, yes, this whole thing was his fault from the beginning. He had been framing Wu Tian all along!
If the police were called, and it turned out to be his fault, wouldn't he be finished?
Seeing that he wasn't moving, the manager asked, "Hey, why are you still standing there? Didn't I tell you to call the police? Go ahead and call!"
The waiter felt flustered, but then he thought, this isn't right. When the incident happened, there were only him and Wu Tian present.
Even if the police came, they wouldn't find any clues!
With this thought, he regained some of his confidence and said to Wu Tian, "What do I have to fear about calling the police? Do you think I'm afraid of your revenge? What a joke!"
He pulled out his phone. "I'm calling the police right now. Let's see what you can do when the police arrive!"
After speaking, he directly dialed 110 and briefly explained the situation.
After hanging up the phone, he said to Wu Tian, "I've already called the police. The police will be here soon, so you should prepare to be arrested!"
Wu Tian remained silent. He wasn't sure what to do either, but for now, he could only take it one step at a time.
A short while later, two police officers arrived.
As soon as the police entered the room, they asked, "Who called the police?"
The waiter immediately stepped forward and said, "It was me, I called the police!"
The police asked, "What's the situation here? Why did you call the police?"
The manager then said, "Officers, it's like this. This person attempted to steal something from our hotel."
"But during the theft, he broke our vase."
"This vase is worth over a hundred thousand. He refused to pay for it, and on top of that, he assaulted our staff. You must uphold justice for us!"
The police looked around the room. When they saw the security guards lying on the ground, they couldn't help but be taken aback. They then looked at Wu Tian and said, "Is what he said true?"
Wu Tian's attitude towards the police was much better, as this matter could be clarified with a simple investigation.
He shook his head and said, "They are just slandering me."
"As for assaulting people, they attacked first. I was merely acting in self-defense."
The manager shouted, "You're talking nonsense! The police are here now, and you're still not being honest, are you?"
"You're a thief! There's no way to deny that! No matter how much you quibble, it's useless!"
Wu Tian said in a deep voice, "This is all just your side of the story."
"You say I'm a thief and that I broke the vase. Where is the evidence? Do you have any proof?"
