Chapter 206: Chapter 153: Police, Arrest Someone!_2

Elder Tang and the others were silent at this moment.

Perhaps it was Sui Yi’s own aura that captured them, or perhaps... they could find no sharper retort than Sui Yi’s!

The man frowned, staring at Sui Yi, and after a long moment, he laughed, "Sharp-tongued! However, we police don’t need to explain so much to you. All you need to know is that we don’t need to inform a town like Nanxun of our actions... As for whether or not you’ve committed a crime... shouldn’t you explain to us where these two pieces of fake ink in your hand came from, and what they’re intended for? Oh, and I also have a thick stack of information about you, regarding how you helped smuggle ancient artifacts at such a young age... Would you like me to make a copy for you to see?"

Inside and out, there was nothing but restlessness!

Even Bai Xiong and the others thought, wow, is this really true?

Bai Lingshuang and the younger ones felt a complex surge of emotions at this moment.

Firstly, they were intimidated by the great disparity between them and Sui Yi, and then by the shattering of the opponent’s high position.

—Sui Yi was about to plummet to the bottom of the valley!

Elder Tang and Elder Lin’s faces changed in an instant! They naturally knew about Sui Yi’s past, which might not mean much in their line of work, but after all, it wouldn’t sound good if it got out, especially since those people didn’t know what role Sui Yi exactly played in the middle of it all.

—She was still a child.

And for the officials, such a record was truly fatal,

so,.....

They came prepared.

Sui Yi immediately discerned from their demeanor that their purpose was directed at her!

Who else would have the guts to attack her so viciously and so precisely?

The Li Family.

And with the help of the Qian Family and others, after all, those people knew a bit about her past... like Zhou Ran.

At this moment, another group of people arrived outside, like Lin Quan and others.

His face was ashen as he walked to the Gate with Zhang Xiao and others, but they couldn’t enter.

Because he recognized the identity of the other party.

—The Provincial City inspection team.

Damn! The other party was too influential!

The atmosphere was oppressive.

Elder Tang saw that the man had taken out the handcuffs with a faint hint of jest.

That laugh, as if the fox had finally caught the meat it desired.

And if taken away by these people, one could imagine what Sui Yi would suffer...

—They were the people of the Li Family.

Elder Tang’s temples throbbed violently, regretting for the first time that he had let Sui Yi do his bidding in earlier years, with immense regret.

It felt as though he had personally smeared a layer of thick and indelible stain on what should have been a clean life for Sui Yi.

Thinking this, Elder Tang sighed and was about to say...

Meanwhile, Lv Haobai’s face had turned white, because he had thought of his own identity.

—The ink was sold to Sui Yi by him, and if asked about the source, he would undoubtedly be dragged into it as well.

Although it wasn’t a big deal for him to sell it within the industry; if it really came to the letter of the law, he would be eaten alive.

Especially since the other party came with hostile intent.

This time, he was really in big trouble!

—If Sui Yi was willing to cooperate, that is.

However, he waited and waited, and ultimately didn’t hear Sui Yi deny responsibility, but instead...

"Who said I’m selling fakes? Besides, I have no intention of selling people..." Sui Yi said calmly as the words floated from her mouth and then..

Yi Chilian, who had been indifferent, gracefully picked up the piece of ancient ink and said softly, "Are you saying this is fake? What if I told you that this is the renowned Chenxiang Ink from the Jiangsu and Zhejiang region, produced by the Jiangnan Glazed Factory, would you believe me?"

Well, that, the man and others obviously didn’t understand this, but quite a few merchants in the crowd were astonished, "This is Chenxiang Ink? The one that Master Liew from the Jiangnan Glazed Factory makes only one of each year? That thing is worth several hundred thousand for just a small piece! If it went to auction, it would fetch over a million!"

Chenxiang Ink? What’s that?

Most people didn’t understand.

However, the Jiangnan Glazed Factory was very famous; those who were in the antiquities business mostly knew it like thunder, because it represented a cultural giant family line that had been carried on for over a dozen generations, with a large scale. Nowadays, Master Liew, who was advanced in years, was a nationally famous cultural master, enjoying the title of a top-tier artist, wherever he went, he was like a giant panda.

And this Chenxiang Ink was an item that had disappeared from history until Master Liew single-handedly researched and recreated it.

It was extremely rare, and was highly revered nowadays by scholars as well as wealthy and famous people. (Well, mostly I looked up some information and then made it up myself; just take a look, don’t take it at face value, it could confuse the knowledge system. If you’re interested, you can go online to check this information in detail).

With a few merchants explaining it this way, others understood, but the man did not believe it, scoffing, "Nonsense, if it was such a precious ink, how could it fall easily into your hands! Or did you perhaps purchase it from someone else?"

As he spoke, he also glanced at Lv Haobai who was not far away, scaring Lv Haobai!

After thinking for a bit, Lv Haobai’s expression became weird, quite complex, as he said helplessly, "The Chenxiang Ink made by Master Liew once a year is never sold, but is instead placed by Sui Yi in various locations, even mixed among ordinary inks and distributed around, only for those predestined and appreciative to find... I think, Miss Sui is one of those people with destiny... and I, am simply the person who sold her this chance.."

He paused, then spread his hands with a wry smile, "Miss Sui bought this ancient ink from my shop, it’s really not smuggling"

Undoubtedly, this vindicated Sui Yi.

Sui Yi did not expect this person to have the courage to draw fire to himself and looked at him.

The man was not resigned.

"What about this piece then? Was it also bought from your shop? Ha! It must be fake!"

Actually, by now, Sui Yi could basically clear her previous charges, but unfortunately, the man still had some information on Sui Yi, so he seemed fearless. (To be continued.
