President Cao went quiet briefly. He handed the file to the other people sitting in front of the desk so that they could have a look at it as well.
A couple of minutes later, President Cao glanced at the other professors and the vice president and asked. "What is your opinion?"
They looked at each other briefly before Huo Yulin's boss spoke up. "I think it can't be Huo Yulin. If he had stolen the research archives, he should have just disappeared. Why would he bother to come back and wait for us to catch him?"
Huo Yulin was usually busy working in the academy and hardly interacted with members from other teams, so people did not know him well enough to make a comment.
"Section Chief Shen makes sense. Since this is a matter of national security, everyone is a suspect until proven innocent," said the academy vice president.
"Oh yes. Yuan Huan, you even fought the guy. What's your opinion?"
