405: Chapter 405 Going Home

After a period of discussion, Lin Heng finished communicating with Xu Mu.

After confirming those characteristics...

Lin Heng felt as if he hadn't grasped any of those traits at all.

It was simply impossible to understand!

Other than the possibility that the other party absconded with three hundred million, they had no other information!

They didn't even have a general description of the person's appearance!

And that description was likely obtained from one of the victims.

Moreover, that victim had only been in an online relationship with the suspect...

Lin Heng couldn't help but laugh.

It would be a miracle if they could actually find the suspect based on that!

As for their previous understanding, they truly had no leads, because once digital currency flows into another country, numerous complications arise!

Chasing it down easily leads to a dead end, so they had been stuck without any clues.

The other party was only being targeted because recently a large sum of money showed suspicious activity, and the trail pointed directly to their location, prompting the investigation.

Who would have thought that just as the police officers arrived, someone immediately reported that someone in their village was spending extravagantly to an astonishing degree!

Even the Village Entrance Aunties each received one million!

Good heavens...!

Isn't this the criminal they had been dreaming of finding!

When they first heard the news, they almost burst into laughter!

So, the moment they got the information, they rushed over immediately.

They even chased the trail all the way here.

However...

They never expected that Lin Heng was genuinely wealthy!

He wasn't a fraud perpetrator??

This was clearly demonstrated strength!

In fact, what they had seen so far was merely the tip of Lin Heng's iceberg!

His true magnitude probably far exceeded their imagination!

..."Brother... what's going on?"

On the way home, Lin Xiaoxiao clung to Lin Heng's arm, swaying slightly, and asked with some curiosity.

Hearing this, Lin Heng smiled faintly.

"Nothing much. It's just that a scammer appeared in our village, quite a nasty one. They tricked dozens of families and reportedly scammed three hundred million."

Lin Heng said casually.

Upon hearing this, the other party quickly understood.

Lin Xiaoxiao nodded.

She let out an 'Oh...'

By this point, Lin Xiaoxiao should understand why Lin Heng was arrested.

After all, the other person's three hundred million might just be a rumor, but Lin Heng's three hundred million was a real three hundred million!

Besides Lin Heng, who else could have so much money?

If they didn't suspect Lin Heng, who would they suspect?

"Then... Lin Heng, do you have any leads?"

Hearing the conversation between Lin Heng and Lin Xiaoxiao, Su Xueer felt a bit restless, an impulse rising within her to actively join in.

So, she subconsciously asked.

Hearing this, Lin Heng silently shook his head.

He let out a wry smile, "Do you think I'm a deity? How could I be that capable to know who that scammer is?"

"I don't rely on my thoughts to know what others are thinking."

Hearing this, Su Xueer lowered her head somewhat sheepishly.

"Forget it, it's not that big of a deal either. It was just a small guess... They only came over after hearing about my news. Maybe it's just a misunderstanding?"

Lin Heng quickly shook his head, speaking in a flat tone.

After speaking, he shot a glance at Lin Xiaoxiao.

"Speaking of which, it's all because of this girl... Otherwise, we wouldn't have been questioned by the police because of this."

"Oh my, I didn't do it on purpose... Who knew it would blow up into such a big issue?"

Lin Xiaoxiao scratched her head somewhat awkwardly, chuckling.

The three chatted and laughed.

Midway through their conversation, Lin Heng suddenly turned his head. He looked at the slightly embarrassed Su Xueer.

"By the way, what did you want to ask me about?"

Lin Heng still remembered what Su Xueer had said earlier.

He asked.

"Ah... I..."

A trace of nervousness quickly appeared on Su Xueer's face.

Her small face flushed red.

Seeing this, Lin Xiaoxiao immediately broke into a smile.

She glanced at Lin Heng, then at Su Xueer, smiling without speaking.

She covered her face, afraid that Lin Heng would notice her suppressed laughter.

Just then, a person hurried over from ahead, walking with their head down and not noticing Lin Heng and the others.

Unintentionally, they collided with Lin Heng.

Given Lin Heng's physique, when the two bumped, Lin Heng only swayed slightly, but the other person fell sideways, landing in a face-plant.

"Are you alright?"

Lin Heng reacted quickly. He noticed the silent person and hurried over to help them up.

"I, I'm fine, no need."

An unpleasant look quickly appeared on the person's face, and they immediately covered their face.

Making it impossible to see their features clearly.

The person adjusted their tattered, ragged clothes and then quickly left.

They were clearly unwilling to have any further contact with Lin Heng and the others.

"What a strange person..."

Lin Xiaoxiao frowned slightly.

"It's like they're afraid we'll extort them! They should look at themselves; are they even worth extorting?"

"Guilty conscience, they probably stole something from someone, right?"

Lin Xiaoxiao pouted and snorted coldly.

In contrast, Su Xueer's gaze was somewhat complicated.

She glanced at the person's retreating back. The person had already slipped into an alley and completely vanished.

Su Xueer quickly retracted her gaze and sighed slightly.

"Perhaps they have some kind of concern?"

"Or maybe they have some kind of facial disease, otherwise they wouldn't dare to show their face to people."

"I heard things like that happen in the village; there are countless cases."

"..."

"Let's go. It's nothing. We'll tell the Village Head later. After we drop off our things, we'll go take a look at the Village Committee. I heard Xu Mu and the others have arrived, and the Village Head also heard the news from here and will be rushing back soon."

Lin Heng spoke calmly.

So, this was the only way.

Lin Xiaoxiao and Su Xueer both had different expressions on their faces.

But they didn't say much either, instead following behind Lin Heng towards his home.

...

When Lin Heng and the others arrived at his doorstep, they found someone already waiting there.

"Lin Heng! Why are you only getting back now?"

The person speaking was none other than Chen Guihua, who had a good relationship with Lin Heng.

Chen Guihua quickly glanced around, then pulled Lin Heng into a secluded corner.

"I heard the police are looking for you everywhere! What did you do?"

She clearly asked with some anxiety.
