Billionaire’s Reborn Baby Chapter 316


    An hourter, they arrived at an alley in the ck market.


    The young policeman had a sullen look ever since he saw Eliot. In front of his colleagues, Eliot and


    Sydnee were too intimate, making him aplete outsider. He was supposed to have a date with


    Sydnee.


    “It’s cold outside. Put on the scarf.”


    Eliot helped Sydnee wear the scarf that she had given him before.


    He had been wearing this scarf these days. He forgot to buy a new one. Besides, he liked the smell of


    the scarf and the warmth it brought to him. He was ustomed to the scarf.


    When he got off the taxi, he saw Sydnee standing in front of the police station. Her face looked pale


    due to the coldness, and he naturally helped her wear the scarf. Eliot only realized what he did when


    he withdrew his hand.


    The two police officers on duty came out and greeted the young policeman. Seeing this, they looked at


    the young policeman, surprised about who Eliot was.


    Sydnee did not notice howplicated the situation had be. She read the transcript of


    interrogation, “After entering the ck market, walk forward and you’ll find a store selling second-hand


    mobile phones….”


    They walked forward and finally found the store.


    Eliot immediately saw his ownptop. It looked very new, for he took good care of theptop. The


    shopkeeperbeled it as a brand-newptop. The price was eight thousand.


    What an irony. He had to spend eight thousand to buy hisptop.


    Sydnee thought of another way to get theptop back. After seeing Eliot’s determined look, she


    showed the shopkeeper a photo on her phone and asked, “Do you know him?”


    The shopkeeper was around forty, bald and bearded. He nced at the thief in the photo, shook his


    head, and calmly wiped the keyboard in his hand. “I don’t know him.”


    Sydnee took back the phone and walked over to theptop that Eliot was looking at. She asked, “Do


    you have a receipt for thisptop?”


    “Youngdy, I only sell second-hand goods. I’ll just buy what others sell. There’s no receipt.”


    “So, this is a second-handptop?” Sydnee asked.


    “Right.”


    Sydnee took out her phone and handed it to him, “Don’t you know him?”


    “You just asked.” The boss remained calm.


    Sydnee yed the recording, “… Turn left and there is aptop store. The bald and bearded


    shopkeeper is in his forties. I sold theptop to him for two thousand. I guess he has sold it to others.


    He has many second-hand goods in hand. He also has multiple distribution channels.”


    The bald shopkeeper stopped wiping the keyboard. But he still calmly looked at Sydnee, “I don’t know


    him.”


    Sydnee also tried to keep calm. She had witnessed the entire process of Jaquan and other police men


    arresting Max at the Tea Manor. At this moment, her body was trembling slightly from excitement.


    “He identified you as the one buying his stolen goods.” Sydnee pointed at the police officer and said,


    “Show your badge to him.”


    The young policeman took out his badge and said, “Sorry, but you have toe with us. Even if you


    don’t know him, we still need to investigate you and take evidence. If his deposition is true, all the


    laptops in your shop will be confiscated to take evidence.”


    The bald man’s face darkened. “I’m just selling second-hand goods. How am I supposed to know that


    person is a thief?” He paused for a moment and looked at Eliot, who was standing in front of theptop.


    He said, “If thatptop is yours, you can take it. I’ll do with the loss.”


    Sydnee turned to look at Eliot and asked, “Is this okay for you?”


    Eliot didn’t know what to say. It felt like that he was their boss. But he was just a poor guy who had his


    laptop stolen.


    The bald shopkeeper also looked at him.


    The young policeman even put his hands on the handcuffs.


    Eliot nodded as everyone kept silent. “I’m okay with this. Anyway, I just want myptop back. Didn’t you


    delete my documents, did you?”


    Everyone suddenly got rxed. The bald boss walked to Eliot. “I haven’t deleted those yet. I thought it


    could show how advanced theptop was.”


    The bald shopkeeper put theptop in a bag and handed it over. Eliot thanked him.


    Sydnee said at the counter, “Sir, when a thief sells something to you next time, don’t take it. Just call


    the police officer. Now, there’s a bonus for reporting the theft.”


    The bald shopkeeper smiled and didn’t take it seriously.


    After they left, the bald shopkeeper returned to the counter. There were two thousand and a business


    card with the policeman’s private mobile phone number.


    He looked at the money, then at the business card, and suddenly smiled, “Thedy is quite smart.”


    “Actually, you don’t have to give him money.” The young policeman looked at Sydnee and said, “He


    knows that I am a policeman, so he dares not take revenge on you.”


    “No, I’m just thinking that he won’t do it again. Moreover, if he can be your friends, he may provide


    valuable information to you.”


    Hearing that Sydnee was doing this for his sake, the young policeman’s face turned blushed with


    excitement. “Really? You’re really considerate.”


    Eliot didn’t say anything. Was he thinking too much?

    They separated when they arrived at the police station. The young policeman was very happy along


    the way, and so was Sydnee. However, Eliot did not seem to be very happy even though he had found


    theptop.


    When Sydnee drove Eliot back, she was in a good mood. “What’s up? Are you excited about getting


    yourptop back?”


    Eliot didn’t know what to say.


    He thought that Sydnee liked him and did everything for him. But just now she did a favor for the


    policeman. He felt embarrassed and shameful. Then he began to doubt that she might never like him.


    Along the way, he was immersed in thought and therefore expressionless. He didn’t expect that she


    would think he was happy.


    “No,” Eliot said politely, “Thank you so much this time.”


    “You’re wee.”


    Sydnee sent him downstairs, waved her hand and drove away.


    Eliot stood there for a while, quite confused. If Sydnee didn’t like him, why did she do these for him?


    He couldn’t figure it out.


    She liked him, didn’t she?


    Sydnee drove her car on the main road and sneezed twice. She rubbed her nose in confusion and


    tightened the scarf around her neck.


    It was New Year’s Day. Would there be dark talk about her on this special day?
