Chapter 618 - They’re Looking for Someone, not Something
Breaking and entering was a rather serious offense here. One would be sentenced two years in jail. Besides, since the man was caught red-handed, he would not even have the opportunity for appeal.
In his statement, the man insisted that he had just chosen a nice-looking house in the hopes of getting quick cash. He claimed that he was a homeless man after money, but this house was not as well-off as he had hoped, leaving him with nothing.
Since he did not take anything, it did not count as burglary.
Despite that, he did break and enter someone else’s home. So he was destined to get some jail time.
However, Xia Ruoxin did not buy the man’s words. She was sure that he was lying. Even though she could not see everything that the man had done since he entered the building, she felt that he was looking for someone, not something
If he were looking for valuables, he should have gone through all the drawers and go through all the rooms, but he did not. He must have been looking for something much bigger, much more obvious-people.
He was looking for someone. As for his motive, he himself knew that it was not a simple case of burglary. It was a bit of a stretch to call it burglary, given that he did not steal anything.
It was the first time Xia Ruoxin had seen this man. It was a Caucasian man with a beard. The minute he saw her, his gaze turned dark, which made Xia Ruoxin uncomfortable. She could feel that the man knew her despite his claims. She was sure that she did not know the man nor had she seen him before. He was very eye-catching: his skin was sickly pale, and he had a beard. He was the kind of man that would stick out in a crowd. If she had seen him before, she would remember the face and the man; but she had no impression of him at all.
