nOn the way, Luosang called Professor Ma. She wouldn’t bother Professor Ma if she had a choice. After all, he had helped her so much.

nAfter hearing her words, Professor Ma said in both surprise and anger, “The students will really do anything to get what they want these days. Luosang, you’ve been excellent. Not to mention the students in your department, even some girls from other departments are jealous of you. But what happened today happened in the girls’ dormitory, and all your roommates weren’t there. It’s gonna be a little difficult to prove that you’re innocent.”

nHearing Professor Ma’s words, Luosang’s heart sank. If she couldn’t prove her innocence, she would be despised by the others when she got back to school. Perhaps, she wouldn’t even have a chance to start a career.

n“Just calm down. I’ll come over and talk to someone to get you out of the police station first, then we’ll try to figure out a solution,” Professor Ma comforted Luosang.

n“Thank you,” said Luosang with a low voice.

nAt eleven-thirty at night, Luosang walked into the Cheng He Police Station. A few policemen, who were having their supper around their desks, raised their heads and looked at her. “Eh? No beautiful ladies have come to our station for a long time. Is she caught in an anti-vice operation?” one of them asked.

nLuosang’s face blushed in anger.

n“No, theft,” Zhao Chang, the policemen who brought Luosang here snorted and said, “She’s from Ximei College of Communication. She’s pretty indeed, but she steals things.”

n“I’ve told you that I didn’t do it.” Luosang bit her lips and said, “Our school is holding an artistic activity recently. Many directors and people from film and television companies will attend. I’ll be the host of the activity. Many people from our department want to be the host. They want to kick me away; that’s why they framed me.”

nTwo policemen glanced at each other. Then, one of them said, “Lady, it’s useless for you to tell us those things. You got to have evidence. Without evidence, nothing can help you. Come over and sit here. Show your ID. For theft to public or private property, the larcenous amount from a thousand to three thousand yuan, you shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance, and you shall be fined, additionally or exclusively. The amount of money involved in your case isn’t much, so you’ll be able to leave after spending about half a month in jail and paying the fine.”

nLuosang helplessly handed her ID card to the policeman.

nAs the policeman was recording Luosang’s information, a good-looking policewoman came upstairs, saying, “Is Captain Lu here? My boss sent me to shift the case of the burned KTV to you.”

n“Miss. Nian, you’re here,” the few policemen hurriedly stood up, scrambling to take over the files.

n“What Miss. Nian? Call me Officer Nian.” Before coming closer to Luosang, the policewoman slapped the few policemen and made them howl.

nLuosang turned to look at her. After seeing her face clearly, she gave a start and called her name, “Nian Xi?”

nHearing Luosang call her name, Nian Xi turned around and responded with, “You are… Luosang?”

n“Yeah,” Luosang smiled and nodded, “do you remember me?”

n“My God, Luosang my dear elder sister, why are you so young and pretty now? Did you do plastic surgeries? You’ve changed thoroughly!” Nian Xi was so surprised that she could barely close her mouth.

nLuosang felt a little speechless, feeling that Nian Xi and her brother Nian Junting were really alike sometimes. “That’s… a long story,” she said.

n“Officer Nian, she’s a student, and she’s younger than you. Why’re you calling her ‘elder sister’?” Zhao Chang couldn’t help but join the conversation.

n“No way.” Once after saying that, Nian Xi began doubting herself.

n“Look, her ID.”

nNian Xi glanced at Luosang’s ID, then after a while, she complained, “So you’re two years younger than me. Luosang, you’ve lied to me the whole time. I’ve saw you as my elder sister. Why are you in the police station?”
