In fact, the trap Lucy Clayton had dug was not just one, as her series of actions had already begun to unfold.
When Ember Vance went out with her gun, the supervisor leader of the sub-bureau happened to enter the courtyard, catching her red-handed, and the sub-bureau leader had also brought another colleague from the sub-bureau's criminal police team. They came to retrieve the archives of New Era Film to consolidate the cases.
As only a precinct chief, Ember Vance was bound by the rules to comply, and thus she handed over the case files of the New Era case.
Of course, she knew that it was not the time to hand over the documents, as doing so would mean big trouble for Yusuf Zuck. Therefore, she quickly claimed that the case officer had gone home after work and that she would call them to come over.
