Police officers also rely on evidence.
So after hearing Wu Tian's words, he immediately looked at the manager and asked, "Yes, where is the evidence? Without evidence, you can't just say such things!"
The manager had no evidence. He just felt that Wu Tian was problematic, so he said, "Officer, let me put it this way, I really don't have any evidence."
"But you have to believe me, this person is indeed problematic!"
The waiter also said, "Although we don't have enough evidence, I am a witness."
"I saw him trying to grab the vase and then smash it. Can you arrest him for that?"
Wu Tian sneered, "Do you think the police are all idiots? Can your words be considered evidence?"
"I can also say that you committed murder. I saw it with my own eyes. In that case, wouldn't you be sentenced to death by firing squad?"
The waiter was choked speechless and didn't know what to say.
When the police heard Wu Tian's words, they were even more hesitant to jump to conclusions. After all, if they made a mistake, they would be the fools!
So, to be cautious, he said, "Let's not say anything here. Why don't you all come with me to the station?"
"We can discuss everything once we get there."
The waiter was a little anxious.
The longer this matter dragged on, the worse it would be. With such advanced investigative techniques, what would happen if he was found out?
So he hurriedly said, "Why don't you believe me? He's a thief! You should arrest him quickly!"
"How about this, if I lied to you, then I'll go to jail for ten years! Is that acceptable?"
The manager also said, "Officer, I am also sure that he is not a good person. It would be best if you arrest him now."
"If there's any problem with what I'm saying, then you can call my boss directly and fire me. Isn't that enough?"
The police officer shook his head and said, "Even if you say these things, it's useless. Investigations require evidence."
"If it's just witness testimony, then anyone could accuse anyone else?"
"So, you should come with us now."
"Otherwise, with your current approach, you definitely won't be able to solve any problems."
Seeing the police officer's persistent attitude, the manager and the waiter had nothing more to say.
They could only nod and agree.
Although Wu Tian felt annoyed, he couldn't say much since the police officer had made the suggestion.
Besides, saying too much could lead to more mistakes and make him appear guilty.
Therefore, he could only go with the police.
Then, just as the group was about to leave the room, a strange sound suddenly came from the room.
The sound was coming from the speakers, a crackling noise that was very unpleasant to the ears.
The police officer asked, "What's going on? Why is there sound from the speakers?"
Wu Tian said, "Oh, it's like this. I was playing games in the room earlier, and then the computer had a bug. I haven't turned it off yet."
The police officer said, "So that's how it is. It's not good to have it making noise here. Wait for me, I'll turn off the computer."
The police officer walked over to the computer and operated the screen a few times.
But at this moment, he was stunned and said, "Hmm? Why is this computer recording?"
"Ah?" Wu Tian had not expected this situation either.
He shook his head and said, "I don't know. I've never turned on the recording!"
The police officer, who was knowledgeable about computers, checked it and said, "I see. It must be a system error that automatically turned on the recording. It'll be fine once it's turned off."
Wu Tian suddenly thought of something and said in surprise, "Wait a minute, you said the recording was turned on due to a bug. Does that mean our conversation just now was all recorded?"
"Please open the recording file and check it. As long as it recorded the conversation between me and him, the truth will surely come to light!"
The police officer thought it made sense and prepared to open the recording file.
But at this moment, the waiter's expression became extremely panicked.
He was already twisting the truth. If the recording file was made public, wouldn't he be finished?
He couldn't let this happen, so he hurriedly said, "Officer, officer, I think we should go down quickly. There's no need to listen to any recordings."
Wu Tian knew the waiter was scared, so he sneered, "What's wrong? You look like you're scared?"
"Weren't you eager to have me arrested just now? Why are you willing to go down now?"
The police officer had handled quite a few cases.
So, seeing the waiter's reaction, they immediately became vigilant and looked at the waiter, saying, "Yes, why are you so anxious?"
The waiter froze for a moment and then stammered, "This... this I have something else to do later, so let's not waste time here."
Wu Tian chuckled, "You're really interesting. If we listen to the recording, shouldn't the matter be resolved faster?"
"Isn't going to the station for an investigation more time-consuming?"
The waiter knew he had said the wrong thing, and his face turned a little green with embarrassment.
The manager believed the waiter, so he patted the waiter's shoulder and said,
"This is not your fault at all. Why are you so nervous?"
"Your actions have helped the hotel recover its property losses, and perhaps the boss will even commend you!"
The waiter was almost in tears.
But what could he do? Now, he could only hope that the recording file would be fine.
Seeing that everyone had no objections, the police officer opened the recording file.
The waiter's heart was about to jump out of his throat.
He kept praying, hoping nothing would happen, absolutely nothing...
As the playback tool was opened, the first sentence in the file soon came out of the speaker.
"Why did you break the vase? It seems I'll have to contact the front desk to change rooms."
Wu Tian and the waiter's expressions both changed drastically!
Wu Tian was pleasantly surprised, while the waiter looked ashen!
Because it was Wu Tian's voice, and the timing was exactly when the waiter had broken the vase!
The recording continued to play, and as the progress bar advanced, everyone's emotions changed differently.
When they reached one-third of the way, the police officer stopped the playback and stared at the waiter with a hawk-like gaze.
"Now, do you have anything else to say?"
