“Let me observe for a moment,” Su Xuan said, his expression turning grim. The criminal’s sin value didn’t quite match his modus operand!. The system displayed a sin value of over three hundred, but an ordinary online fraudster wouldn’t have such a high sin value.
As they were talking, another person entered from not too far away. The newcomer was wearing a stylish floral dress and walked around the entire restaurant before sitting down at a nearby two-person table.
Su Xuan noticed the newcomer and instinctively lowered his head. Seeing Su Xuan’s reaction, Zhang Chenglong was also surprised and unconsciously followed suit, his head lowered. He spoke with curiosity.
“Su Xuan, why did you suddenly lower your head like that? Are you feeling guilty for some reason? We’re just having a meal together, not with anyone else… or did you…”
“Did you discover something?”
It wasn’t that Su Xuan had discovered anything significant. What surprised him was that the thief he had caught before was out again. Releasing someone after detention was not impossible, but after detention, the sin value would be reset unless the person committed another crime to accumulate a new sin value.
However, the woman sitting nearby still had a sin value of nearly a hundred.
And more importantly…
“Shh!”
“Do you see that woman in the floral dress not far away?”
“That’s a female criminal 1 recently apprehended!”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chenglong instinctively looked in the direction of the woman in the floral dress. Well, he didn’t recognize her.
“I caught her at the subway station,” Su Xuan explained.
The woman in the floral dress before them was none other than the criminal
Su Xuan had apprehended when she disguised herself as a beggar in the elevator and stole money.
This fact left Su Xuan puzzled. It had been barely a week, so how could she be out already? Furthermore…
“Do you see her gaze?”
“Do you think she occasionally has contact with that fraudster?”
As Su Xuan finished speaking, Zhang Chenglong, who had intended to say something, fell silent and looked up. While they were not criminal investigators, having a discerning eye was essential for identifying criminals within a well-disguised crowd.
With Su Xuan’s reminder, Zhang Chenglong began to notice that something was amiss in the atmosphere between the two criminals. The fraudster indeed had eye contact with the female criminal, and judging by his subtle movements, they seemed to know each other. However, Zhang Chenglong didn’t see as much as Su Xuan did. After all, Su Xuan had personally arrested the woman, and he had seen that she was approaching the fraudster. When the fraudster noticed her, his expression changed, and he deliberately avoided his female companion’s gaze. It was clear that he didn’t want his companion to notice the woman.
There was something going on between these two…
Su Xuan didn’t believe that there was nothing more to it.
“No, I arrested the woman in the floral dress.”
“And now she’s been released…”
“Could it be that I made a mistake in the arrest earlier?”
“But it’s unlikely because…”
Zhang Chenglong’s words were left incomplete, and he hesitated as he looked at Su Xuan. In Zhang Chenglong’s view, the likelihood of Su Xuan making a mistake in an arrest was low. It seemed that Su Xuan had an uncanny ability when it came to criminals, and he hadn’t made a single wrongful arrest.
Hearing this, Su Xuan lowered his gaze. Something didn’t add up, and he needed to investigate further.
With their eyes on the criminal couple, Su Xuan and Zhang Chenglong watched as the couple finished their meal. When it seemed like the couple was about to leave, Su Xuan and Zhang Chenglong exchanged glances, considering their next move. The woman in the floral dress, who appeared to be unassuming, made them hesitate. In the end, they decided to follow the fraudster.
Su Xuan had years of experience in handling cases, and he suspected that if this female criminal, who had been recently released, was a suspect, she would likely be closely monitored by the criminal investigation department’s officers. So, for the time being, they focused their attention on the fraudster.
Su Xuan had a strong premonition that, given the aggressive approach of the woman in the floral dress, she wouldn’t let the fraudster off so easily.
As expected, not long after, the two of them observed the fraudster taking his female companion to the movie theater. He then went out to buy bubble tea, leaving her inside the theater with the tickets.
From a distance, Su Xuan and Zhang Chenglong exchanged glances again and decided to follow the fraudster, who had quickly exited the theater after swindling someone.
They saw him at a corner, where he spotted the woman in the floral dress waiting. His face contorted with anger as he swiftly approached her, grabbing her wrist and dragging her into the stairwell.
“Tang Jiajia, what’s the meaning of this?”
“Weren’t we supposed to part ways with me giving you all the money? Why are you coming to find me now?”
“At this point, what do you want from me? You think it’s not chaotic enough?”
The fraudster glared at the woman in front of him, seething with hatred. If it weren’t for this woman, he wouldn’t have been caught in the first place. Fortunately, the money he had swindled wasn’t a significant amount, so he had been released after just two years. After finally getting back to his old tricks, what was this woman doing here? What did she want?
“Hehe, part ways?” Tang Jiajia found his words amusing.
“Yue Fan, do you really think that what you did back then can be easily forgotten?”
“As long as I hold this handle, you’ll never escape me in your entire life!”
“Yue Fan, what’s wrong with me? Am I worse than my sister? She’s already dead!”
“Why can’t you be with me…!”
The woman’s voice from inside was abruptly muffled, followed by the furious voice of the man, “Shut up!”
“Tang Jiajia! Are you out of your mind? How dare you casually mention this matter!”
The voices of the two came through the door on the opposite side of the stairwell. Although they weren’t speaking very loudly, Su Xuan and Zhang Chenglong both sensed that something was amiss.
As they watched the couple about to exit from the stairwell, Su Xuan and Zhang Chenglong quickly moved to the side. Su Xuan positioned himself near the entrance of a nearby store, pretending to be engrossed in reading the menu. However, his peripheral vision remained fixed on the stairwell.
Seeing the couple emerge from the stainveil and go their separate ways, Su Xuan wore a stern expression. His thoughts turned inward to the system.
“System, what’s displayed on the Sin Radar and Sin Monologue…”
“It’s probably not their entire wrongdoing, is it?”
“Otherwise, how could this guy’s Sin Value be so high if he’s just a fraudster?”
“And the things he just said…”
Su Xuan had entertained such speculations before but had set them aside due to his excitement in catching thieves. However, faced with the current situation, he had no choice but to have a serious conversation with the system about the Sin Radar and Sin Monologue.
[Ding! Host, this monologue serves only as an auxiliary tool.]
[It can identify the crimes committed by criminals, but not all of them!] [Congratulations, Host, on deciphering it! System rewards you with 200 points!]
[The Criminal System only serves as an assistant on the path to becoming the strongest officer. Please study the system carefully, Host, and strive to become the strongest officer!]
The system’s voice carried a hint of excitement.
Su Xuan raised an eyebrow.
Well, what do you know…
He was actually getting excited about this!
