Zheng Wenjie asked Su Xuan what their next steps should be.
What else could they do?
Although it was already late in the morning, they had just enjoyed a hearty meal of hotpot chicken, so they weren’t feeling hungry.
“Let’s continue,” Su Xuan said with great determination. “While we’re at it, let’s catch a few more. I reckon those criminals might be thinking we won’t be around during lunchtime.”
“They might decide to act at noon. We’ll catch them off guard!”
Upon hearing this, Zheng Wenjie’s previously puzzled eyes suddenly lit up, and he grabbed Su Xuan’s shoulder, giving it a pat.
“Good!”
“Alright, young man! Today, I’m following your lead!”
Afterward, Zheng Wenjie and Su Xuan approached Captain Liao.
“Are you planning to go catch more thieves?” Captain Liao was quite excited, but upon hearing their words, he was momentarily taken aback.
“It’s almost noon, aren’t you planning to head back?”
“Or are you intending to stay here?”
“Su Xuan…”
Captain Liao was genuinely excited about Su Xuan’s ability to catch so many criminals, but it didn’t mean he was willing to overwork his team.
“Catching thieves is one thing, but you still need to take care of yourselves. If you guys break down, how are you going to catch thieves?”
Hearing this, Su Xuan pointed to the restaurant’s door in a somewhat helpless manner.
“Captain Liao, we just devoured a whole chicken a moment ago.”
Captain Liao:…
“Do you really think we can eat more?”
Su Xuan asked rhetorically, and Captain Liao happened to glance at the bill on the table. He saw the enormous quantity of food these two had consumed in just half an hour, and his temple veins began to throb.
“Alright!”
“Then we’ll take the criminals back for now. You take care of yourselves.”
Su Xuan nodded in agreement.
Shortly after, Captain Liao left with the five criminals.
Captain Liao felt compelled to report the extraordinary feat of Su Xuan capturing five criminals, including five wanted individuals. He believed that if he didn’t share this accomplishment, he would be doing a disservice to this major operation.
Upon arriving at the office, Captain Liao immediately filed a report. This news quickly reached the municipal bureau and was rapidly transmitted to the provincial headquarters.
It spread like wildfire on the internal police network.
Police departments across different regions were abuzz with the news.
The criminals Su Xuan had apprehended weren’t just from their city; some had escaped from other police jurisdictions only to be captured by him.
And these criminals were all of the “thief king” caliber.
Putting everything else aside, the police stations in Harbor City and other where criminals had previously managed to escape, were among the first to send messages.
“I can’t believe it. Is it true?”
“This guy had been eluding me for so long in my jurisdiction, and you managed to catch him.”
“Has the identity of the criminal been confirmed?”
“Are you sure it’s the one who escaped from my area? This is incredible! Your operation this time is massive!”
“Unbelievable! I was still thinking about when he’d finally get caught, but it turns out he ended up in your territory…”
After speaking, police departments from various regions suddenly realized…
Wait a minute!
Wow!
Didn’t Xiangjiang City catch a thief king a few days ago?
On the second day, they had even captured the Five Bests of Ning City. It had only been a day, yet they had captured the Five Great Thieves!?
This had to be an extraordinary stroke of luck!
“Wait a minute, something’s not right… Your probability of catching criminals is a bit too high, isn’t it?”
“My goodness! You’ve managed to catch so many wanted criminals. Impressive!”
“You’ve apprehended so many thief kings… Are you sure you haven’t stirred up a thieves’ den?”
“Wow, it seems we need to step up our game over here too…”
Seeing messages flooding in from various regions, the leaders at the Xiangjiang City Bureau felt a deep sense of satisfaction!
The fact that Su Xuan had managed to apprehend so many criminals was a source of great surprise and joy.
Particularly for Chief Zheng, it had been years since he had received any commendation at the provincial level within the bureau.
This time, thanks to Su Xuan’s successful capture of numerous criminals, he had been specifically praised by the provincial headquarters.
With these thoughts in mind, Chief Zheng immediately issued orders to the anti-pickpocketing team.
As for Captain Liao, after receiving a call from the leader of the city bureau, he couldn’t help but wear a contented smile on his face.
This feeling…
It was truly satisfying!
However, even in this situation, Captain Liao didn’t forget to report the matter to the city bureau leader exactly as it happened.
After all, the honor of this achievement was earned by Su Xuan, and they were fortunate to share in this collective recognition. There was no need to take credit for someone else’s achievements.
Chief Zheng naturally felt deeply moved by this.
At the same time, he urged Captain Liao to seize this opportunity while Su Xuan was still part of the anti-pickpocketing team and apprehend more criminals.
Captain Liao readily agreed.
With such a promising talent, he was even reluctant to let Su Xuan go.
While Captain Liao was on the phone with city bureau leader, other officers found themselves in a strange mixture of surprise and anxiety.
The reason was simple: they kept receiving requests for assistance from Su Xuan over the radio.
Almost every time Su Xuan showed up, it meant they had to go pick up a criminal.
However, despite the inconvenience, the members of the anti-pickpocketing team were more thrilled than anxious.
Even though they felt like they were being outshone by a newcomer, the results achieved in such a short time were equivalent to what they couldn’t accomplish in a whole year.
“Wow, 1 wonder how many criminals Su Xuan will catch today.”
“We caught quite a few at the subway station yesterday!”
“With this momentum… the number of criminals he’s caught this morning alone probably surpasses my total.”
“Zheng is so lucky! He gets to work alongside Su Xuan. He must be enjoying some serious benefits!”
“Darn it! Why couldn’t 1 have been the one working alongside Su Xuan?”
As the anti-pickpocketing team members exchanged words, Su Xuan’s requests for assistance once again came through the radio.
At this point, the members of the anti-pickpocketing team were left not just in shock but with a sense of utter disbelief.
“Wow, this is already the tenth one…”
“Could this guy really be emptying out the entire thieves’ den!?”
“Unbelievable… we’ve only got a few subway stations on this line, and he’s been everywhere…”
“But even so, he’s catching so many criminals… it’s simply terrifying!”
With the increasing number of criminals apprehended, the anti-pickpocketing team members transitioned from amazement to shock and eventually to a state of numbness in just half a day.
In the end, they were even past shock.
It could be said that Su Xuan’s speed and method of catching thieves this time completely shattered their understanding of how to catch criminals!
They knew Su Xuan was good at catching thieves, but they never imagined he could be this good!
For Su Xuan, catching thieves was as effortless as drinking water. In fact, according to Zheng Wenjie, he didn’t even seem to notice where the criminals were, and Su Xuan had already taken them down.
Upon hearing this, the members of the anti-pickpocketing team couldn’t help but wonder: Is Su Xuan even human?!
At this rate of catching thieves, it seemed like he could empty out the entire thieves’ den!
