The young man looked at the girl from head to toe. "The book is on you. Take off your jacket!"
It was so cold. How could she take off her jacket?
The girl said, "No means no."
"Then I'll search you."
As the young man spoke, he reached out to touch the girl.
The girl was shocked and immediately stepped back.
Fang Tian grabbed the young man's wrist and said, "Even if I want to search you, it's not your turn, right?"
He looked at his hand and directly touched the girl's chest.
"It's none of your business. Get lost," the young man said angrily.
"Call your boss out." Fang Tian looked at him and knew that he was not a good person. He went straight to his boss.
The young man stood up straight. "I'm the boss here. My name is Zhu Gaoqiang."
It can't be? Such a hooligan would open a bookstore?
"This is my place. Get lost immediately!" Zhu Gaoqiang looked at him fiercely.
"Scum."
Fang Tian picked up a pirated copy of "One Hundred Years of Solitude" from the bookshelf and slapped it directly on his face.
"Pa!" The sound was heard!
"How dare you hit me? Do you want to die?" Zhu Gaoqiang had the temperament of a hooligan. He threw a punch at Fang Tian.
Fang Tian tilted his head and dodged. Zhu Gaoqiang threw another punch …
At this moment, the police arrived.
What happened here had already attracted the attention of many people. Someone called the police.
"He hit me." When Zhu Gaoqiang saw the police, he immediately ran to her with an aggrieved face.
The person in the blue police uniform was a policewoman.
"No, he's a good person." The girl glanced at Fang Tian and then looked at Zhu Gaoqiang. "It's him. He slandered me."
"Tell me the details," the policewoman said sternly.
Then, the girl told him the whole story from beginning to end.
After hearing this, the policewoman looked at Zhu Gaoqiang coldly. "Who allowed you to search her?"
"She stole books from my bookstore. I had no choice but to do so," Zhu Gaoqiang explained.
The policewoman looked the girl up and down. "Follow me to the bathroom."
The girl nodded and followed the policewoman into the bathroom.
Zhu Gaoqiang touched his upper lip with his finger and then put it in front of his eyes. His nose was bright red and his face was burning. "Brat, you're finished. You must be that girl's accomplice. I'm going to put you in jail!"
Fang Tian looked at him with a smile and said, "Why are you so sure that she stole it?"
"Every time she comes in, there will definitely be books that disappear. Who else could it be? "Zhu Gaoqiang's face was full of anger.
Fang Tian: "I don't think she stole it. If she did, I'll compensate you ten thousand yuan!"
Ten thousand? There were quite a few of them.
Zhu Gaoqiang's mouth twitched. "You poor ghost reader, can you take out 10,000 yuan?"
Fang Tian smiled and said, "Since I dare to say it, I naturally can take it out."
"Alright, don't regret it when the time comes."
Fang Tian: "If you can prove that she didn't steal it, you have to pay her 10,000 yuan."
Zhu Gaoqiang was stunned and said, "You name your terms, I'll also add to them. If you can prove that she stole it, you have to pay me 100,000 yuan for medical expenses."
Fang Tian smiled and said, "Alright, if you can prove that she didn't steal it, you have to pay me 100,000 yuan for time lost."
Time lost? He had only been here for ten minutes and he wanted 100,000 yuan for time lost. Are you the boss of a company? Is time so precious?
Zhu Gaoqiang thought about it and nodded in agreement.
Ten minutes later, the policewoman brought the girl out of the bathroom.
At this time, many onlookers had gathered in the bookstore and were talking about it.
"I couldn't tell that the girl was actually a thief."
"How is that possible? She must have been framed!"
"If it wasn't her, then who could it be?"
At this time, the police came out and everyone stopped talking. The room was quiet.
"Police, police, did she steal it? Arrest her and him. Arrest them together. They are accomplices. "
Zhu Gaoqiang's face was full of anger and he pointed at Fang Tian.
The policewoman looked at him and cleared her throat. She said seriously, "After a careful search, the police did not find that she stole the books from your bookstore."
Hearing that, Zhu Gaoqiang was stunned!
Fang Tian smiled. He had tested the girl with a transparent lie detector and she was not lying. She did not steal the books.
"How is that possible? She obviously stole it." Zhu Gaoqiang could not accept the result.
"Are you questioning the authority of the police?" The policewoman looked at him coldly.
"No, no." Zhu Gaoqiang said gloomily, "Then who stole my books?"
The books that were missing added up to one or two thousand yuan. They were all quite expensive.
The policewoman spent about ten minutes and the truth was revealed. It was an employee of the bookstore who had stolen them.
At this point, the girl was completely eliminated as a suspect.
Then, the police left.
"Boss Zhu, isn't it time to fulfill your promise?" Fang Tian looked at him with a smile.
"Fulfill what?" Zhu Gaoqiang played dumb. It was as if he was suffering from "Young Adult Dementia" and had forgotten what he had just said.
Fang Tian said, "Compensation."
"You're so childish. I was just saying. How could you believe it? Haha!" Zhu Gaoqiang did not admit it and laughed proudly.
He knew that this kind of person would act shamelessly. Fang Tian said, "Boss, your bookstore sells pirated books!"
Hearing that, Zhu Gaoqiang jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. "Nonsense, all the books here are authentic!"
Fang Tian placed the book "One Hundred Years of Solitude" in front of him. "This must be a pirated book, right?"
"Authentic, it's definitely authentic!" Zhu Gaoqiang patted his chest and promised, "You can doubt my character, doubt that my wife is second-hand goods, and even doubt that my son is my biological son. You can't doubt my authentic books either. "
There was no need to doubt the character of this boss. Fang Tian smiled and said, "Looks like I have to call someone to check it out. I heard that the crackdown on piracy has been quite strict recently. I wonder if the store will be closed down?"
As he said that, Fang Tian took out his phone.
Hearing that, Zhu Gaoqiang was shocked. He held Fang Tian's hand and his expression changed quickly. He smiled and said, "Let's talk nicely."
"Cut the crap. Hurry up and compensate," Fang Tian said quickly.
Zhu Gaoqiang knew very well how many pirated books there were in this store. Once it was investigated, it would be very troublesome.
"Okay, I'll compensate you," Zhu Gaoqiang said and walked towards the front desk.
Seeing that the matter was settled, the girl did not want to stay there and left. Fang Tian held her hand and said, "There's compensation."
Under the girl's surprised gaze, Zhu Gaoqiang handed her 10,000 yuan. It was a large stack of hundred-dollar bills that had been counted with the money counting machine. Not a single cent was missing.
Then, Zhu Gaoqiang handed 100,000 yuan to Fang Tian to compensate him for the time lost.
10,000 yuan was a huge sum for a girl from a poor family. She could not believe it and wanted to return it.
"Take it. You deserve it." Fang Tian smiled at her.
Zhu Gaoqiang's face was like a black pot. He turned and left.
The girl looked at Fang Tian with eyes full of gratitude. "Thank you for believing in me and helping me!"
