Chapter 701: He’s Still a Child!

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Boss, have you seen my bicycle?” Zhou Chao turned back to the busy breakfast shop owner and asked.

“Bicycle? What bicycle? I’ve been busy and didn’t notice. Young man, is your bicycle missing?” The owner put down what he was doing and hurried over to Zhou Chao’s side.

Zhou Chao glanced at the breakfast shop owner beside him and could tell from his somewhat bewildered expression that he indeed didn’t know.

“Yeah, it’s a very special bicycle with butterfly patterns on the frame. It disappeared while I was eating.”

At this point, Zhou Chao also knew that his bicycle was probably stolen. He looked around and noticed that the supermarket next door happened to have a camera pointing in this direction.

“Young man, is your bike valuable?” The owner asked with some doubt, after all, this incident happened right at his shop entrance. If this young man blamed him for it, he didn’t know how to respond!

“It’s not that valuable, just a few million!”

“Oh, that’s fine then, only a few million... What, a few million!” The owner’s expression suddenly changed dramatically, and his legs started to tremble. Luckily, he managed to hold onto the door frame next to him.

Some breakfast patrons also cast their eyes over, after all, everyone liked to see such excitement.

An elderly man spoke up, “Young man, you’d better report it to the police quickly!”

“Yes, yes, report it quickly. We have surveillance cameras nearby. When the patrol comes, they’ll know who stole it!” The breakfast shop owner chimed in, after all, if it got out that someone’s bike was stolen from his shop, who would come to eat there?

Zhou Chao also knew that it would be more appropriate to let the patrol handle these things. He immediately dialed the police hotline.

When the police center learned that a bicycle worth a few million had been stolen, they took it very seriously and immediately arranged for the nearest patrol station to appear on the scene.

After waiting for about five minutes, a patrol car stopped at the entrance of the breakfast shop. Three or four particularly capable patrol officers got out, all in their thirties or forties, not one of them young.

At this moment, Captain Liu also learned from his subordinate’s phone that what Zhou Chao said was indeed true—the lost bicycle was worth over three million!

“Sorry, Mr. Zhou, we’ll start investigating right away!” Captain Liu said apologetically.

“It’s okay, it’s normal for you to have doubts, after all, there are hardly any of these bicycles in the country!” Zhou Chao quickly waved his hand, understanding that anyone would have doubts.

Captain Liu nodded and glanced around the scene, quickly noticing the surveillance cameras installed at the supermarket’s entrance.

With his subordinates, he walked towards the supermarket, and Zhou Chao followed closely behind Captain Liu and his team.

He also wanted to know who had the audacity to openly take his bicycle.

When they reached the supermarket entrance, before Captain Liu could state his purpose, they saw a slightly overweight man running towards them from behind!

“I’m the manager of the supermarket, I’ll take you to see the surveillance footage!” Even before he reached them, his excited voice could be heard.

Captain Liu glanced at the manager and realized he was one of the onlookers from earlier.

“Thank you!” Zhou Chao remained polite.

“No trouble at all!” The manager said enthusiastically.

Although he managed a not-so-big supermarket, after so many years as a manager, he still had some insight.

From Zhou Chao’s calm demeanor, it was evident that a bicycle worth millions was just a toy to him.

By cooperating proactively, he might just build some good rapport with this “rich second-generation.”

Then, the group followed the manager through twists and turns until they reached the supermarket’s surveillance room.
