Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“F * ck, Su Xuan is damn lucky!”
“It’s only been a morning, and he’s already caught a few.”
“I don’t believe you if you say he went on patrol. I think he went to stock up!”
“F * ck, I’m too envious.”
“Did he enter a den of thieves? Was it so easy to catch thieves nowadays? Why didn’t I catch one when I went there?”
The surrounding police officers could not help but say.
In particular, the police officer who had switched shifts with Su Xuan widened his eyes.
“F * ck!”
“What’s going on? What’s going on? Why don’t I have this luck?”
“Or does this den of thieves only appear when Su Xuan is around?”
“As expected, Su Xuan has recently gained some sort of thief catching buff!” the police officer said.
It wasn’t that he want to believe in this kind of metaphysics, but it’s just that he’d been stationed at the train station for years and never caught any thieves. Damn it…
He had just switched shift with Su Xuan, but now Su Xuan had already entered the thief’s den!
Hearing his former partner’s words, Tian Genchui didn’t know how to respond. He simply said to Su Xuan on the other end, “1’11 be right back,” and hung up the call.
Then, he looked at the director, Old Mai, and could not help but rub the back of his head.
“Chief Mai, should we… should I bring more people?”
“And these handcuffs don’t seem sufficient. I think we should bring more.” Upon hearing this, Lao Mai furrowed his brow and glanced at Lin Can nearby. Lin Can immediately gestured, “Don’t look at me. If it were up to me, I’d definitely provide more.”
No kidding.
Considering Su Xuan’s performance—one morning, and he’d nabbed four or five petty thieves—not only would he gladly supply more handcuffs and officers, but he’d also happily be Su Xuan’s errand boy!
Lin Can had every reason to believe that, given just a foothold, Su Xuan could move the earth itself.
Hearing this, Lao Mai shifted his gaze back, “Alright, aside from those who have duties today, leave two people on standby. Everyone else, change into plain clothes!”
“Get in the station’s van, head to the train station, and support Su Xuan’s operation!”
“If you catch any criminals, toss them in the van. Once it’s full, come back!”
Lin Can:…
Other officers:…?
“Chief Mai, are you planning something extraordinary? You talk like we’re going shopping for bulk goods.”
Though the officers were somewhat taken aback by Lao Mai’s actions, they quickly changed into plain clothes and headed for the train station in an orderly fashion.
Standing beside Lao Mai, Lin Can gave him a thumbs-up, “Bold move, brother. Aren’t you afraid of making the wrong bet?”
As the deputy chief, Lin Can could see that Lao Mai was taking a big gamble. “Even if I’m wrong, what’s there to lose?” Lao Mai chuckled.
“But if I’m right…”
Well then, today really is bulk shopping day!
At this, Lin Can shifted his gaze, looking up at the now-empty hall and sighed, “I hope they make us proud…”
Both leaders of the police stations were a bit excited, just waiting for good news to come from the train station…
Meanwhile, Su Xuan had apprehended a shifty-looking middle-aged man.
Though the man was no spring chicken, he still harbored thoughts of escaping from Su Xuan, even when the evidence against him was irrefutable.
It’s as if he didn’t care—or realize—that running would make him a wanted man.
“What are you doing, Officer? Why have you arrested me?” the man squawked.
“Let me go, quickly. My wife is waiting for me at home…”
“Just because you’re a cop doesn’t mean you can just arrest me without reason.” “Hey, someone come quick! Look, the police are arresting people, arresting common citizens!”
“Let me go!”
The man was shouting at the top of his lungs.
Su Xuan looked exasperated. Had he not already moved the man to a more secluded area, his shouting would have likely blown Su Xuan’s cover.
“Shut up and behave yourself,” Su Xuan said, his face darkening.
“You’ve been caught red-handed, trying to steal from someone, and you still claim innocence?”
Hearing this, the man seemed entirely unfazed by his own exposure.
“Officer, you can’t just say that. I don’t know how that item got into my hands.
Someone must have planted it on me. 1 didn’t steal anything!”
“You can’t just frame an innocent man!”
“I might be from the countryside and not know much, but even I know not to engage in thievery…”
The man began speaking, his weathered face breaking into a smile, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.
“Officer, look, I’m getting on in years, and I’ve been wrongly accused…”
“Why don’t you just let me go?”
Su Xuan:…
1 watched you steal with my own eyes and found the stolen goods on you. Where do you get the nerve to claim you’re innocent?
“Whether or not you’re wronged, there will naturally be surveillance cameras to help you confirm it when we get to the police station.”
“And my law enforcement recorder has been recording.”
“If you’re really slandered, I’ll naturally let you go.”
As Su Xuan spoke, he pulled the old man forward.
The old man knew that his hands were handcuffed and he couldn’t leave even if he wanted to.
However, he was not willing to be captured just like that.
After all, he had been stealing in the station for so many years and had never been caught.
Now, he was captured by a young man.
How could he live with this humiliation?
“Officer, I am a good person, an outstanding citizen! Please, let me go,” the man dug in his heels, resisting even as Su Xuan tugged twice.
The standoff persisted. Thankfully, the secluded location meant there were no witnesses; otherwise, Su Xuan’s undercover identity would’ve been compromised long ago.
This tug-of-war continued until Tian Genchui arrived, still without resolution. “What’s going on here?” Tian Genchui frowned as he came over, initially intending to take over from Su Xuan. He found the two entangled in a futile tug-of-war.
“This guy stole a young girl’s phone, and I caught him red-handed. Now, he won’t admit it and refuses to come along,” Su Xuan filled him in, handing over the suspect to Tian Genchui. “Brother Chui, it’s all yours from here.”
Quickly grasping the situation, Tian Genchui effortlessly subdued the shifty man. Unlike Su Xuan, his years of experience had taught him not to be led around by suspects.
“Alright, these are new handcuffs. I’ll take it from here,” he said.
Feeling the authoritative demeanor of Tian Genchui, the man immediately quieted down and complied.
Su Xuan smirked and mumbled under his breath, “It’s true what they say: kindness invites bullying.”
He then handed over the handcuffs and disappeared into the crowd once again..
