The man’s face expression suddenly changed.

His gaze towards Su Xuan became even more uncertain.

He felt as if Su Xuan had seen through him, and his previously calm heart suddenly raced. He hesitated and looked around nervously.

He subconsciously glanced left and right.

Seeing that both sides were already filled with passengers, there shouldn’t be any available seats…

Who could this young man be looking at?

Could it really be him?

The man in the suit with a briefcase turned pale, his heart pounding. Especially when he saw Su Xuan approaching, he became increasingly uneasy, and he shifted his weight as if he were about to get up and run away.

However, the thought of running away only lasted a moment before he pushed it back down.

No, he couldn’t panic.

He still wasn’t sure if this young man was really looking at him.

If he were to run away now, wouldn’t that make him look guilty?

Besides, this guy might not have discovered the crimes he committed…

It had been a long time since he had done anything like that.

He had turned over a new leaf!

As these thoughts ran through the man’s mind, he suddenly regained his composure. He quickly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, pretending to be nonchalant, and picked up his phone.

That’s right, he couldn’t appear nervous.

Everything would be fine…

Meanwhile, while the man was struggling with his thoughts, Su Xuan had already reached him. He extended his hand and grabbed the handrail above him, simultaneously adjusting his position to create some space between himself and the crowded passengers.

Then, he took out his own phone and began playing with it.

Upon seeing this scene, the man, who had been feeling uncertain, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He felt a surge of gratitude and relief.

God knew, when Su Xuan approached him earlier, his soul had nearly left his body!

He had initially wanted to run.

But his legs felt as heavy as lead, and he forcefully suppressed the urge to escape, his legs trembling like a jackhammer.

However, if Su Xuan had made any sudden moves, he would have leaped up and fled!

Fortunately…

Fortunately, it had all been a false alarm!

With this in mind, the man breathed a sigh of relief, quickly grabbed his phone, and scrolled through a couple of videos to relieve the pressure.

He thought to himself!

The last time he had stolen something was a year ago…

How could it be possible that he had been discovered now?

Indeed, once a thief, always uneasy!

Even though he had turned over a new leaf for quite some time now, he felt nervous when he realized someone was keeping an eye on him. He wondered when this predicament would end.

However, even in his current situation, the man still didn’t want his true identity to be exposed, leading to his arrest. Throughout the past year since he had reformed himself, he had clung to a glimmer of hope that his past deeds would never come to light.

When he had resorted to theft, he had been genuinely impoverished. Now that he had money, he was determined not to return to his old ways!

With these thoughts in mind, the man’s tension began to dissipate. He leaned back against the subway seat, one hand holding his briefcase and the other clutching his phone, just like any other passenger on the subway. He appeared perfectly calm, showing no signs of guilt.

Su Xuan stood in front of him, seemingly engrossed in his own phone. However, his peripheral vision continued to scan the man before him.

After observing that the man had quickly regained his composure, Su Xuan squinted his eyes. The reason he hadn’t taken immediate action earlier was that he had noticed the man’s clean appearance. Although he had appeared somewhat nervous when Su Xuan first looked at him, the fact that he hadn’t moved indicated that there was likely no stolen property on him.

Now, as Su Xuan observed the man’s composed demeanor, he felt something was amiss. He quickly checked the sin radar again, scanning the man. While the sin value remained unchanged, one of the sin monologue papers was missing, and a new buff had been added.

When two sin monologue papers were placed together, they could reveal additional information.

[Crime: Theft! Detailed Modus Operand!: Theft of personal belongings at the high-speed rail station, involved in selling stolen gold.]

Su Xuan:…?

This was getting interesting.

So, the question arose: how was he supposed to catch someone who had neither stolen goods nor money on them?

Su Xuan fell silent for a moment.

Just then, a female voice suddenly rang out within the subway car.

“All! My phone, my phone is gone!”

“Thief! There’s a thief!”

After this female voice sounded, everyone in the subway car paused for a moment and instinctively turned their heads toward the source of the sound.

They saw a well-dressed woman holding her purse, her face tense as she looked around nervously. She anxiously shouted,

“My phone is missing!”

“I had it in my bag just before I got on the train, but when I tried to take it out, it was gone…”

“Please, be careful, there’s a thief here!”

“Oh my goodness! My wallet was in the bag too…”

The woman spoke anxiously, “Please, I beg you all, if anyone sees the thief or if anyone took my things, please return my wallet!”

“I have an exam, and my admission ticket is in there!”

Upon hearing the woman’s words, the entire train car was filled with a sense of unease. People hurriedly checked their belongings. No one wanted to end up unlucky like the woman who had lost her phone, money, and exam admission ticket.

Amidst the chaos, nobody could locate the thief. Most of the passengers were engrossed in checking their possessions, except for a few individuals.

One was Su Xuan, another was the man with the briefcase who had been under Su Xuan’s watchful eye, and a couple of others.

After nervously inspecting their belongings, the passengers noticed that these few individuals hadn’t moved at all. Suspicion fell upon them.

“Hey, guys, we’re all checking our phones and wallets. Why haven’t you moved?” one passenger asked.

Before Su Xuan could speak, the man he had been observing impatiently chimed in, pointing at Su Xuan and saying, “Yeah, what’s going on with you, young man? 1 noticed you inexplicably pushing towards my side just now. Are you trying to steal from me? You couldn’t be the thief who took this young lady’s phone and wallet, could you? Let me tell you, 1 don’t have any money!”

As soon as the man spoke, everyone’s attention turned to Su Xuan. Some passengers had also noticed that he had entered the train car just before the woman’s phone and wallet went missing. Moreover, Su Xuan had moved quite a distance.

He did seem suspicious.

“Hey, young man, why aren’t you searching for your own belongings?” another passenger asked. “Could it really be you who stole them?”

“This is unacceptable! This young lady has had a hard time, and how could someone steal her things? Some people these days, so young and already resorting to theft. It’s a disgrace to humanity!” others chimed in, berating Su Xuan.

While they were ostensibly talking about Su Xuan, the man’s face turned sour. He felt like they were including him in their condemnation.

Just as this was happening, Su Xuan saw a red dot on his radar about to exit the train car. He immediately strode over, grabbed the person’s hand, executed a shoulder throw, and sent him back to his original spot.

Then, he swiftly handcuffed him with a pair of silver handcuffs.

The passengers who had been talking fell silent instantly..
