Chapter 2126: Pressing Charges?
Professor Ouyang’s decision was even more decisive than Jiang Yao’s. “Since it’s already confirmed that it’s Li Hong, call the police. I’ve lived to this age, and I’m not relying on this little bit of wisdom to earn a living. Li Hong isn’t a three-year-old child. She has done some things, so she has to bear legal responsibility. I don’t need people with such depraved morals. She can steal your things today and mine tomorrow. When she enters society, she will steal other people’s things.”
Professor Ouyang said, “I will not put up with it.”
“I understand.” Jiang Yao nodded and called the police.
Scientific research could not be measured in monetary terms. Furthermore, Lu Xingzhi had previously communicated with someone, so when Jiang Yao called the police, they arrived at the university about fifteen minutes later.
The police had notified the university, so the dean accompanied them when they arrived.
“Professor Ouyang, since this is between your students, why don’t we settle this privately? After all, if this story spreads, it will harm our university’s reputation.” The dean followed behind the police with sweat all over his forehead. After all, there was a thief in the school, and it would not be pleasant to hear about it.
It was a small community. Would the university’s reputation not be harmed if the story made it to local newspapers and radio news?
If it had been a matter of teachers and students, the dean would have used force to keep the issue private. However, Professor Ouyang was no longer an active professor at a university; he was visiting lecturer from Nanjiang Medical University. Jiang Yao was a student at Nanjiang Medical University, not their university. Even if he wanted to use his academic standing and job to force the two to compromise, he could not do that.
The police officer looked at the dean and asked, “Are you still pressing charges?”
‘Yes. ”
Professor Ouyang feared Jiang Yao would be concerned about him, so he responded on her behalf. “Why are you here if we’re not pressing charges? Li Hong is inside. You may enter and accompany her to the police station to take her statement. A guard is also stationed at the front door. Take her with you.”
“This is related to the Changkang Group,” Professor Ouyang said as he waved his hand and turned to face the dean. “If you want to talk privately, why not ask them? If the situation is not handled properly, the Changkang Group will personally send someone here to handle it. The matter will be reported in newspapers when that time comes. Isn’t that going to be more lively?”
“That Changkang group that collaborated with the Divine Doctor’s student?” The dean was speechless. He was terrified. He knew that Jiang Yao, who Professor Ouyang had brought from Nanjiang City, appeared to have a crucial document stolen and sold by another student. Still, he had no idea it was related to the Changkang Group.
“Yes, a Changkang Group research team sent the document to me. It had to do with a research project. Stolen scientific research data is a big issue. I would not have gone through so much trouble if it were just ordinary letters and documents,” Jiang Yao explained coldly.
The dean raised his hand repeatedly to wipe the sweat from his brow, not daring to say anything. Even though the Changkang Group was a massive corporation, it had worked with the Divine Doctor’s student. Most importantly, he learned that the Changkang Group’s boss appeared to have strong support. It would be even more challenging to deal with if Changkang Group took action..
