Scumbag Chapter 193 The Real Young Master Doesn’t Care For The Crematorium Trope (15)

The detective had been tailing Mingting and noticed that he was visiting the Public Security Bureau more often than before. He took some photos and sent them to Lu Minghua.

Seeing the photos where Mingting appeared familiar with the uniformed officers, Lu Minghua was worried that Mingting had gone to there to submit his DNA.

A few years ago, the public security system had already established a DNA database to help parents find their missing or kidnapped children. Lu Song had also submitted his DNA.

What other important business could Mingting possibly have at the Public Security Bureau?

Lu Minghua could only think of this reason.

In the photos, Mingting was carrying a backpack.

He often carried this bag, which held his laptop. Lu Minghua had seen it in many of the photos sent by the detective.

"Can you find a way to steal his laptop?" Lu Minghua contacted the detective, "I want to know what’s in it."

‘Lu Mingting is a computer science student. Had he been searching for his parents online? Had he found the Lu Family?’

‘Now that he was visiting the Public Security Bureau, is he trying to find his biological parents?’

Lu Minghua desperately wanted answers through Mingting’s laptop.

The detective assured him it was no problem and continued tracking Mingting.

He learned that Mingting had completed his master's thesis defense, obtained his degree, and was preparing to return to Guiyi Temple.

When he first began tailing Mingting, the detective had already researched his background.

He’s an orphan adopted by an elderly couple, raised in a temple, and later became the top scorer in the college entrance examination… even novels wouldn’t dare write such a story!

The detective thought the young man was incredibly intelligent, and even a genius. And he couldn’t understand why Mingting, with such a bright future after graduation, would choose to return to the temple.

‘Did he really want to become a monk?’

‘Perhaps the thoughts of geniuses were beyond ordinary people’s comprehension!’

However, since the employer wanted the laptop and was paying a high price, the detective was determined to deliver.

He followed Mingting to the provincial library and waited for the right opportunity.

Mingting had long known the detective’s intentions and deliberately chose a more secluded seat.

He spent an hour in the library’s study room, flipping through books and researching. Then, he got up and left briefly.

Coincidentally, the study room was unusually empty that day. After observing that no one was paying attention, the detective quickly approached, grabbed the laptop, stuffed it into his bag, and left.

Although the study room of the provincial library was equipped with surveillance cameras, the detective was a professional in this field and knew their blind spots.

Since he’s wearing a cap, mask, and other disguises, even if someone reviewed the footage later, they wouldn’t be able to identify him.

"The laptop has been acquired."

After leaving, the detective called Lu Minghua.

"I’ll send you an address. Ship it via express delivery." Lu Minghua happily transferred 100,000 yuan to the detective.

At that time, express deliveries didn’t require real-name registration, so the detective quickly sent it via Fengfeng Express.

Just as he stepped out of the Fengfeng Express outlet, two police officers approached and showed their badges, "Please come with us."

Sitting in the small dark room, the detective was utterly confused.

‘What's going on? I had only taken some photos and stolen a laptop. Is it necessary to make such a big move to catch me?’

Especially when he heard that his crime was stealing state secrets, the detective nearly lost his mind.

"That’s not true! I didn’t do it! Officers, this accusation is too much. You’ve got the wrong person!"

"Is this you?" The officer showed him footage from the library.

"No." The detective immediately shook his head.

"What about these?"

The officers played video after video.

Only then did the detective realize that from the moment he left the library, every surveillance camera along the way had captured him, right up to his arrest after mailing the package.

What's even more strange is that in the bag he was carrying, a green light kept flashing.

‘What was that?’ The detective was baffled.

Faced with overwhelming evidence, he had no choice but to confess.

"Xiang Mingting is a specially appointed expert for the National Security Ministry, and his laptop contains a security software he’s designing. Who sent you? What is your goal?"

The police questioned him sternly.

The detective was dumbfounded when he heard this.

‘A specially appointed expert for the National Security Ministry? So Xiang Mingting is that impressive?’

In his heart, the detective cursed Lu Minghua to death!

What else could he do now? Of course, he had to confess everything truthfully.

"Four years ago, right when Xiang Mingting entered the university as a freshman, someone contacted me and asked me to follow and monitor him."

The detective laid out everything from the beginning.

Not only that, but the detective also explained that, due to the nature of his profession, he was always cautious.

Whether it was bank transfer records, email exchanges, or later phone calls from Lu Minghua, the detective had kept evidence and even recorded their phone conversations.

Outside the one-way glass, Mingting also showed a puzzled expression.

"I don’t even know any Lu Minghua. Why would he hire someone to follow me and steal my laptop? This is so strange!"

The police searched the detective’s home and retrieved the ‘evidence’ he mentioned. After analysis and verification, they confirmed he was telling the truth.

As for Lu Minghua’s identity, they quickly uncovered it as well.

Meanwhile, Lu Minghua, who is still studying at Hongda University, had no idea his actions had been exposed.

After receiving the delivery notification, Lu Minghua went to pick up the package. The moment he signed for it, two police officers who had been lying in wait grabbed him.

"Lu Minghua? Come with us!"

"What are you doing? Why are you arresting me?" Lu Minghua panicked and struggled wildly, "Let me go!!"
