Ding Jian's theft could be large or small, and the amount did not reach a certain standard. Strictly speaking, he was not stealing, but could only be regarded as improper profit at most.

The magazine office is not a residential building. It is a completely abandoned area, which naturally does not constitute the conditions for robbery.

The police station has handled similar cases before. Some scavengers would go to unfinished buildings to pick up some things. As long as these things are ownerless, they cannot be considered theft.

Although those computer parts were more valuable than ordinary scraps, they were abandoned there by the person in charge of the magazine. It was because the demolition project was suspended, which gave Ding Jian an opportunity to take advantage of them.

Ding Jian was about to cry now. He asked in a panic: "Comrade police, you really have to believe me. I didn't kidnap her. It's really not me..."

The policeman in charge of the case said: "Don't be impatient. We have sent people to collect surveillance near the magazine these days. Maybe it will be of some help."

If it can be proven that Ding Jian did go to the magazine to steal parts, then it means that he may not have gone to the magazine for ransom yesterday.

Originally, the police suspected that Ding Jian was the kidnapper, but after Chu Yao's guidance, they discovered that Ding Jian was timid and fearful, and he had no motive for kidnapping Yuan Jiahao, which dispelled the police's doubts.

If Ding Jian was deliberately pushed out of the target by the murderer, then by wasting their time on Ding Jian, they would undoubtedly have fallen into the murderer's trap, which would delay the progress of the case.

More importantly, Yuan Jiahao is still in the hands of the murderer. The longer the rescue is delayed, the less likely she is to survive.

However, the murderer knew the environment around Xinhe Magazine very well, and he had already thought of this.

Ding Jian also said: "But, there is no surveillance nearby..."

Ding Jian checked several times and found that there was no surveillance near Xinhe Magazine, so he decided to steal the magazine's computer parts.

He did not expect that Xiao He would succeed or fail, and his innocence would be tied to surveillance.

"Well, we also know this situation, so we are checking the surveillance at nearby intersections."

Ding Jian had no choice but to keep his mouth shut. He waited uneasily, fearing that the surveillance at the intersection would not be able to find out and clear his grievances.

Fortunately, the police station was very efficient. After a while, the intersection surveillance was called in.

"Do you remember the last few times you went near the magazine?" the police asked.

Ding Jian was confused, "Ah? How can I remember this..."

The time he goes there is irregular. Sometimes he goes once a week, and sometimes he goes three or four times, depending on whether he has spent all his money.

If he still had enough money, he would not bother to steal parts. After all, the magazine was far away from his home, and it would take him a whole day to run there.

Chu Yao suddenly said: "Did you sell the parts the same day you got them?"

"Of course, is it possible that we have to wait until the Chinese New Year to sell it? People won't look at me as pitiful and give me a few more dollars!" Ding Jian was asked inexplicably.

The policemen understood Chu Yao's meaning and reminded: "They are saying that there is always time on your transfer record, right?"

As long as he checks which days have a large amount of income, he can know when he went to the magazine.

"Yes, yes, why didn't I think of that... No wonder I'm not good at reading. Let me check!"
