Chapter 41: A Good Place to Meet Criminals!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When Gao Qi was taken away, Su Xuan had actually said that he wanted her to go to the police station and make a statement.
After all, Qin Shuyi was the one who had interacted with Gao Qi the most over the past few days.
However, even if she went to take a statement, she wouldn’t be able to say anything useless. After all, she was just one of the people who had been deceived.
However, when Su Xuan said this, Qin Shuyi’s heart skipped a beat. She was afraid that Su Xuan would discover the secret she was hiding.
“Su Xuan, what do you mean by this?”
“Do you think I’m hiding Gao Qi’s stolen money? Am 1 such a person in your heart?”
Qin Shuyi said in shock,” 1 didn’t expect that after being together for so many years, you would actually think of me this way!”
Hearing this, Su Xuan waved his hand.” I didn’t say that. Don’t accuse me.””
“But you should at least try to recall whether Gao Qi mentioned anything unusual to you before or gave you something special.”
“If you think of something, 1 hope you can contact the police in time.”
With that, Su Xuan no longer paid attention to Qin Shuyi and turned to Zhao Ruoxi, saying, “Miss Zhao, shall we go inside?”
Zhao Ruoxi had taken advantage of this situation to witness a good show and certainly wouldn’t refuse Su Xuan’s suggestion. “Sure.”
As they spoke, they prepared to walk inside.
Qin Shuyi stood there, watching their backs. How could she let them leave so easily?
She had been having a rough time recently and naturally didn’t want her ex-boyfriend, Su Xuan, to have a good life.
She opened her mouth on the spot and was about to say something. However, just as she was about to open her mouth, a figure suddenly appeared beside her.” Shuyi, didn’t you say that you were going to order first? Why are you still here?”
It was her high school classmate, You Mu.
Seeing that she was still standing at the entrance, You Mu’s first reaction was, “Were you waiting for me?”
Faced with You Mu’s question, could Qin Shuyi say otherwise?
She immediately nodded and said, “Yes, I wanted to go in with you, didn’t I?”
Upon hearing this, You Mu smiled and walked inside with her, holding her hand. “Alright, let’s go in and take a look.”
Meanwhile, Su Xuan was unaware of what was happening with Qin Shuyi. He and Zhao Ruoxi were discussing their respective jobs, and as a friendly conversationalist, Zhao Ruoxi had already treated him like a confidant.
“So, you were late today because of a case!” Zhao Ruoxi exclaimed in surprise.
She had thought that Su Xuan, with his eloquence, wouldn’t be the type to be late. If it was due to work, that was a different story.
“Yeah, 1 can’t disclose the specifics, but it’s embarrassing to be late on our first meeting,” Su Xuan sighed. “But that’s the nature of our job… we have a lot of downtime on ordinary days, but when we’re busy, it’s really chaotic.”
Hearing this, Zhao Ruoxi nodded with understanding. “I see, it’s the same at my workplace. When it’s quiet, it’s like a desert, but when it gets busy, it feels like we’re drowning in work.”
She took a sip of water as she spoke and gave Su Xuan a curious glance. “Actually, when 1 found out you were just a small police officer, I wondered if we’d have anything to talk about. I mean, from what I know, most policemen are quiet and stoic. 1 thought you’d be the same.”
But she had been surprised to find that they had plenty to talk about.
Otherwise, Zhao Ruoxi wouldn’t have agreed to have Su Xuan join them for dinner. “Are you all usually this busy?”
“Don’t even have time to rest when it gets busy?” she asked, curious.
Hearing this, Su Xuan contemplated for a few seconds and organized his thoughts before responding, “You see, we’re mostly doing grassroots work. During normal days, we deal with mundane matters for the elderly and other trivial issues.”
“After all, it’s impossible for criminals to wander in front of you every day.”
Su Xuan smiled.” Maybe you’ll see me quarreling with other uncles and aunties when you come to the police station next time.”
“hahaha!”
Zhao Ruoxi usually wouldn’t laugh unless she really couldn’t help it.
“It can’t be helped. Such a big thing basically doesn’t happen many times in our area.”
“You have to trust the public safety in our area, don’t you?” Su Xuan teased her, intentionally lightening the mood. “Actually, I wasn’t this chubby before starting this job. 1 was so free, i gained weight.”
“Just dazing at work made me put on several pounds.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ruoxi couldn’t help but size Su Xuan up. Standing at around 1.8 meters tall, he had a well-defined physique and a tall stature. He was far from being considered chubby.
“You must be kidding.”
She couldn’t help but laugh. “The reason the public safety is good here is probably because of you working in the county town.”
“You might not be aware, but our bus station is bustling with people coming and going all day long. It’s packed, and there are quite a few pickpockets and thieves around.”
“Every time passengers come to our service counter to complain, 1 feel like I’m about to be swamped.”
Zhao Ruoxi worked at a state-owned bus station in a government department, and as a manager, her job should have been relatively easy. However, due to the rampant thefts at the station, she often had to rush around when incidents occurred.
Speaking of this, Zhao Ruoxi looked at Su Xuan with surprise. “Come to think of it, I’ve called the police several times before, back and forth, but how come I’ve never run into you?”
Upon hearing this, Su Xuan hesitated for a moment.
“Is it possible that your Chengnan Police Station is not in the same place as mine and is not under my jurisdiction?”
As he said this, Su Xuan realized something. “Wait a minute, if I remember correctly, the southern area should have been incorporated into the jurisdiction of Jiangcheng District…”
Looking up at him, Zhao Ruoxi said, “Right, so we just didn’t have the chance to meet before.”
“But it’s okay, if I have any issues in the future, I’ll come find you. More friends, more options!”
She was genuinely happy. “Besides, there are so many thieves on that side; if we can catch a few more, it will reduce losses at our station. After all, not everyone can find their lost items.”
“It’s such a hassle every time…”
As Zhao Ruoxi spoke, Su Xuan couldn’t help but think about other possibilities.
Ever since he had the system, Su Xuan seemed to encounter criminals almost everywhere he went.
These criminals could range from petty to serious offenders.
But their appearances near him were entirely coincidental. 𝐛𝐞𝐝𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝗺
The chances of catching thieves mostly relied on the opportune moments that fate presented. But if there were no criminals around, he couldn’t catch anyone even if he wanted to.
He realized that he had been missing out. With the radar system at his disposal, why not venture into areas infested with thieves and rampant crime?
With the radar by his side, catching a criminal would be as easy as pie.
Moreover, some forms of public transportation didn’t require identification, making them ideal for criminals. City buses, for example, were a more suitable mode of travel compared to high-speed trains and the like.
Su Xuan’s eyes began to shine with excitement as he realized he had stumbled upon a brilliant method of catching criminals!
