Captain Liao had anticipated a chaotic scene as he led his team here. However, upon disembarking from the vehicle, they found the situation strangely calm. The notorious big men, who were previously aggressive, lay one after another on the ground, contorted as if they were about to meet their end.
In contrast to what they had imagined – a dangerous confrontation between a group of police officers and criminals – the situation appeared quite different. They felt a bit awkward, as if they had unexpectedly walked into a peaceful scene.
The onlookers who had gathered earlier, hoping to witness a brawl, scattered upon seeing the police arrive. Only the police officers and the vehicles that had sped away upon witnessing the situation remained.
Captain Liao furrowed his brow, tense and vigilant, as he strode over to where Feng Na was.
He took a glance at Su Xuan, who was apprehending the criminals, and then began questioning, frustration apparent in his voice, “Didn’t you say the situation here was extremely dire?”
“You mentioned six suspects with strong auras.”
“I rushed here without even changing my clothes. I hastily brought the team, even enlisting the help of the traffic police, all based on your information.” “And this is what we find?”
“You’ve made me busy for nothing and owe quite a favor!”
“What’s going on?”
Confronted by Captain Liao’s intense gaze, Feng Na remained composed.
“Are you saying there weren’t that many suspects here?”
“Did I get it wrong?”
Captain Liao hesitated before responding, “Well, it’s not exactly that.”
“It’s just that you guys seemed capable of handling it yourselves.”
“They didn’t look that formidable, even though they might be big and tall.”
“It’s just that in such a short time, you’ve already resolved the situation… It makes me feel a bit redundant.”
Captain Liao couldn’t help but complain to his vice-captain.
Upon hearing this, Feng Na briefly explained the situation to Captain Liao, “This time, we were able to apprehend so many criminals thanks to Su Xuan.” “He did an amazing job – single-handedly taking down four of them!”
“The remaining two were dealt with by me and Zhang Chenglong.”
“The two traffic police officers also played a significant role.”
“We were really short on time this time, and they had quite a few cold weapons in their trunk!”
“Didn’t you see the sticks over there?”
“If Su Xuan hadn’t smashed them with a hammer, he probably would have been injured this time.”
While Feng Na spoke, some officers approached and lifted the big men who were lying on the ground. Simultaneously, two officers went to inspect the vehicle.
Soon enough, they discovered that the car contained not only weapons but also a considerable amount of money neatly packed in boxes—roughly estimated to be over a million. Some of the cold weapons were stained with blood, clearly indicating that something had happened.
The officers were taken aback. They promptly apprehended the suspects and impounded the vehicle. These six individuals were likely not ordinary criminals. However, the exact nature of their crimes would require further investigation back at the precinct.
Hearing that all these individuals had been incapacitated by Su Xuan, Captain Liao was left dumbfounded.
“Out of these six big men, you only took down two of them?”
“What about the others?”
“Were they all subdued by Su Xuan?”
“This particular big guy doesn’t look ordinary at all!”
“How did he manage to eliminate four people in such a short time?”
Captain Liao couldn’t believe it. Even if all of them present had joined in, it would have been impossible to subdue so many suspects in such a short period, especially given the ruthless appearance of these individuals.
The fact that Su Xuan had single-handedly taken down four of them was beyond his comprehension.
He couldn’t help but wonder, considering that Su Xuan was a small and seemingly frail individual, not even half his size, and he himself doubted his ability to handle four suspects in such a brief time, let alone subdue them all without any escaping.
Upon hearing this, Su Xuan, who was nearby, walked over. Feng Na remained silent and simply shrugged.
“To be honest, I’m also quite surprised by all this.”
“Well, since Su Xuan is here, why don’t you ask him yourself?”
Su Xuan was currently flexing his wrist. Although he had taken the healing potion, fighting against four big men had left him somewhat tired, and his wrist was aching. As he approached, he overheard Feng Na’s words and couldn’t help but feel a bit puzzled.
“Ask me what?” Captain Liao was genuinely curious and wanted to know more.
“How did you take down so many suspects?” He continued, “I heard you initially confronted all six of them, and it was only later when Feng Na and the others joined in that the pressure eased.”
“I never would’ve thought, Su Xuan, you appear so mild and unassuming…”
“To think that you’re this strong in a brawl?”
Captain Liao was truly impressed. In their Anti-Pickpocketing Team, having such formidable team members was essential. After all, many criminals who operated in public places were quite powerful. Apart from other skills, physical stamina was something they often lacked.
Many times, they almost caught criminals, only for them to escape due to their physical prowess.
However, looking at Su Xuan now, Captain Liao suddenly felt that Su Xuan was practically a godsend for their unit. Such an excellent team member, even if they could borrow him for just a month, would bring them immense delight.
Compared to Captain Liao’s astonishment, Su Xuan didn’t think much about it when he heard Captain Liao’s words. He waved his hand dismissively and didn’t want to portray himself as someone who had single-handedly taken down so many people.
“No, no…”
“I just happened to grab a weapon.”
“If he hadn’t opened the trunk, I wouldn’t have had any weapons to use.”
“I was surprised by the accuracy, too!”
Su Xuan didn’t want to elaborate on how he had taken down the earlier criminals. He had to make it sound like luck.
Upon hearing Su Xuan say that he had swung the hammer, Captain Liao couldn’t help but wince, feeling a chill down his spine.
He had assumed the criminal’s face was covered in blood because Su Xuan had made him spit it out, but now he learned it was due to his teeth being smashed.
Captain Liao instinctively ran his tongue over his own teeth, making sure they were intact.
Well, his teeth were still in place.
“You, young man!”
“You went all out! Next time, aim elsewhere, okay?”
“Can’t afford to lose anything, especially not teeth…”
“It’s about dignity!”
Captain Liao emphasized his words to Su Xuan.
Then he looked around. The several criminals had been pulled to their feet by the team members. The captain of the traffic police, who had cleared the way for them, approached with a serious expression.
“Captain Liao, this matter is related to our traffic police team as well. We need to coordinate with you.”
Upon hearing this, Captain Liao immediately responded, “Then let’s go to my unit…”
“Alright! It’s a good opportunity for me to see just how bustling your Anti-Pickpocketing Team has been lately. Haha….”
