Hearing Su Xuan’s words, the woman finally calmed down and took the thick stack of bills from Su Xuan’s hand.
She quickly counted them twice before finally exhaling in relief.
Looking up at Su Xuan, she said, “Thank you, officer! 1…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Su Xuan made a hushing gesture towards her.
“Ma’am, please keep this money.”
“We are currently undercover, so it’s not convenient to reveal our identities.”
“Also, please wait here and don’t expose us, alright?”
People in the country had an inexplicable good impression of the police, not to mention that Su Xuan had helped her find the money that had been stolen by the thief.
The woman immediately nodded and promised,”Don’t worry, officer. 1 won’t expose your identities.”
“Officer, you must catch all the thieves here. They are too arrogant.”
“Big sister, don’t worry.”
“We will definitely catch these thieves and not let them continue their wrongdoing.”
After hearing the woman’s words, Su Xuan left the hall with ease.
He was prepared to go outside and take a look.
At this moment, a figure hurriedly walked past him while talking on the phone.
She accidentally bumped into his shoulder.
“Watch out!”
Su Xuan quickly stabilized the person, only to realize it was none other than Zhao Ruoxi.
“Miss Zhao, where are you rushing off to so urgently?”
Su Xuan instinctively asked, releasing her hand as he did.
Oddly, Zhao Ruoxi, who had been held up, was somewhat taken aback. She looked at him, not entirely believing her eyes. “Su Xuan, what are you doing here?”
“You said there are pickpockets here all the time, so I came to take a look.”
Su Xuan replied, observing her anxious demeanor. “But why are you in such a hurry? Remember to watch your step when walking!”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ruoxi finally snapped out of her daze, reached out, and grabbed Su Xuan’s hand.
“1 just received a message that someone has complained at the service desk; his wallet was stolen!”
She explained in a rapid tone. “Since you’re here, come with me to take a look!”
Compared to Zhao Ruoxi, Su Xuan, being a police officer, was more familiar with such procedures. Although he wasn’t a station staff member, the presence of a police officer seemed to give Zhao Ruoxi more confidence for some reason.
“Alright.”
Su Xuan had not expected that there would be another theft victim today. However, it made sense since he couldn’t catch all the criminals by himself. The two of them hurriedly made their way toward the service desk.
In her heart, Zhao Ruoxi felt somewhat complex. She hadn’t expected Su Xuan to come here for work. Could it be related to their blind date yesterday?
Of course, she couldn’t ask such a question.
Privately, though, she was starting to feel more favorably towards Su Xuan.
But right now, she was more concerned about the passenger who had lost their wallet at the service desk. In this station, Zhao Ruoxi was considered a higher-up, and she received numerous complaints about the station’s security every day.
She led Su Xuan forward, and deep inside, she fervently wished that he would apprehend all the station’s thieves!
He had hands and feet. Of all the things he could do, he had to be a pickpocket and steal others ‘things.
Perhaps this might seem vindictive, but her main concern was getting the thieves caught. After all, these were thieves who stole from people—some of them were elderly or students who had lost their money, and for some, it was their tuition fees!
This kind of thief was unacceptable to Zhao Ruoxi, or anyone for that matter.
Therefore, when she saw Su Xuan patrolling the station today, Zhao Ruoxi felt a sense of gratitude. Yesterday, she had complained about the station having thieves because she was chatting with a police officer. She hadn’t expected him to actually come here today.
Seeing Su Xuan wandering around the station, Zhao Ruoxi had the feeling that he was a dependable person. “We’re here; this is the gentleman who had his wallet stolen.”
Speaking, Zhao Ruoxi led him into a small room adjacent to the service desk.
Su Xuan raised an eyebrow as he glanced inside. However, the man sitting in the room wearing an expensive suit, carrying a messenger bag, and looking all slick and polished, including his gold-rimmed glasses, gave off the aura of a successful man.
Upon seeing Zhao Ruoxi approach, the man snorted and pointed at the table. “My wallet doesn’t just contain money; it also has numerous business cards from influential people.”
“Whether it’s about money or not doesn’t matter. What I want from you is a solution to my problem now, not going to the police or reporting the loss!” No matter how Zhao Ruoxi tried to reason with him, the man insisted on not going to the police station. He also didn’t want to accompany them to report the loss; he simply wanted them to resolve the issue.
Although he didn’t explicitly ask for compensation, he kept emphasizing the large number of business cards in his wallet and how significant his loss was. Wasn’t this implying that they should compensate him?
Hearing this, Zhao Ruoxi’s face turned pale. She hadn’t expected that the gentleman’s wallet would contain such valuable items. She exchanged a glance with the service desk staff, then took a deep breath and said, “Sir, we sincerely apologize for the inappropriate service that led to the loss of your belongings.” “I don’t care whether it was inappropriate or not; the fact is that I’ve lost my things, and you must compensate me!”
“Tell me, how are you going to resolve this matter?”
Zhao Ruoxi hesitated for a moment and cautiously asked, “Sir, may 1 inquire about the amount of money in your wallet and whether you had any bank cards?”
“Or how about this: I can accompany you to report the loss to the police first, and then we can proceed with reporting the loss of bank cards, and afterward…”
Bang!
Before Zhao Ruoxi could finish her sentence, the man slammed his hand onto the table, his face contorted with anger.
“Damn it! Didn’t you hear what I just said?”
“Is money the key issue here?”
“I want you to solve this situation right now, not take me to the police station!”
No matter what Zhao Ruoxi said, the man adamantly refused to report the incident to the police or visit the police station. He just wanted them to resolve the matter. While he didn’t explicitly demand compensation, he kept emphasizing the numerous business cards in his wallet, highlighting the extent of his loss.
Wasn’t this a subtle way of asking for compensation?
After several unsuccessful attempts to reason with him, Zhao Ruoxi turned to Su Xuan, looking somewhat helpless.
But she noticed that Su Xuan was looking at the man with a mischievous glint in his eye.
“Wait, let me handle this.”
Su Xuan wore a faint smile as he approached the man, who looked disdainful, expecting Su Xuan to play the hero.
“No matter who you send, it won’t work.”
“What I want is for you to solve this matter right now.”
“I won’t leave today unless you compensate me. I will definitely file a complaint against you!”
Snap!
Before the man could finish his sentence, Su Xuan reached into his pocket and pulled out a silver handcuff, snapping it onto the man’s wrist.
The man: ???
Zhao Ruoxi and the service desk staff: ???
Wait…
What’s going on here?
