The Most Random System-Chapter 673 - 353: Never Skip a Search After Arrest—A Major Taboo

Yan Aosong slapped Lin Li's hand away as he reached over to steal something and put the black silk into the storage compartment of the front car, closing it tight. He then turned back with a cold laugh:

"Don't be touchy, Lin Li. Let me officially tell you, this black silk is confiscated!"

"How can this be? As a Demon Suppression Envoy, shouldn't you refrain from taking even a tiny bit from us common folks? Uncle Yang, Uncle Yan, not only are you not serving us citizens, but now you've gone too far in plundering the people's fat and riches!

I'm going to complain to Zhongyang! I'm going to complain to Zhongyang~" Lin Li started barking.

Just thinking about how Xiling's Demon Suppression Bureau has already fallen to this level makes Lin Li a bit heartbroken.

Xiling might be... done for...

Yet, listening to this, both of them responded with a cold laugh, and as for the strange title 'Demon Suppression Envoy,' they didn't pay much attention, thinking the kid was just having a middle-school syndrome moment:

"I asked, and your 'Zhongyang~' said they had no opinion."

Lin Li collapsed into despair.

Xiling is still too dark; even a minor Demon Suppression Envoy can already rule with an iron fist.

Yangliang got into the car afterwards and asked Lin Li the questions that Yan Aosong had asked before almost exactly, but naturally, he didn't get the answers he wanted.

Silence fell inside the car.

Having nothing to chat about with Lin Li for a while, Yangliang looked towards Yan Aosong, nostalgic:

"Ao Song, the last time we met was during the conference half a year ago, right?" 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

"Yeah, since you separated from the county bureau, we really haven't had many chances to meet, tried several times but if not you're busy, then I'm busy." Yan Aosong nodded with a smile, his expression somewhat nostalgic.

Afterward, Yangliang's gaze quietly moved to Lin Li who was watching the scenery, and Yan Aosong also stared at Lin Li through the rearview mirror.

"It's all this kid's fault..."

Lin Li was first taken aback upon hearing this, then smiled and waved, a bit bashful and embarrassed, saying: "Uncle, no need to thank me, it's what I should do."

The two couldn't hold back: "Who the heck is thanking you! You little rascal!"

If possible, they wouldn't want to meet in this situation tonight at all!!

Lin Li shrank his neck and then sighed, speaking grimly: "A dignified Demon Suppression Envoy, yet so foul-mouthed, it feels like Xiling is utterly hopeless."

Yangliang, Yan Aosong: "..."

To be honest, the viewpoint that Xiling is utterly hopeless is something they agreed on.

But it has nothing to do with the Demon Suppression Envoy.

What it has to do with is...

Their gaze once again pointed exactly as before.

...

Late night.

Yangliang yawned.

The time was now half past midnight, technically already the next day, Wednesday.

Yangliang turned his head to glance at Lin Li, who was still seriously watching the 'surveillance.'

Honestly, Lin Li wasn't really in a playing mentality. In catching this thief, he was indeed very serious.

But if this seriousness could be applied to better things, that would be even better.

Sighing several times inwardly, Yangliang raised his chin towards Lin Li: "Lin Li, you still have school tomorrow, are you really going to continue waiting?"

"Why don't you catch a ride home first? With us here on the stakeout, don't worry, if the criminal you mentioned actually acts, we'll definitely catch them if they happen to slip through my fingers, I'll directly renounce being a Yang."

"As for your worry about 'the intel being fake, leaving us waiting for nothing,' it's fine. No case is what we hope for, plus currently, we're on duty, so even if we stake out till morning and yield nothing, we absolutely won't blame you."

Yan Aosong nodded: "Old Yang is right."

Actually, the agreed time for Lin Li to be picked up downstairs was already late, and although it's half past midnight now, the three of them had been in FS District for less than an hour.

Yangliang was yawning simply because he was temporarily switched to the night shift, almost ready to sleep earlier.

FS District, like Lin Li's home, is an old block with no security, let alone surveillance.

Now, Lin Li's so-called 'surveillance' is similar to when he caught takeout delivery in school; Lin Li himself arranged two cameras outside the fourth block, recording footage and transmitting it back in real-time.

At this moment, Yan Aosong's car was parked quite far from the fourth block of FS District.

The rationale for this was straightforward: Lin Li didn't want the thief to notice anything unusual and then call off tonight's action, which is why Lin Li asked the Demon Suppression Envoys to ditch the uniforms and drive a private car.

If a patrol car were parked beneath the fourth block, even if the thief had scoped the area countless times, they'd probably back out due to jitters and delay their plan, making the task non-countable.

"I'm fine, Uncle," Lin Li lifted his head with a smile and waved off Yangliang's persuasion:

"I'm not sleepy; I'm prepared. The informant said those people would act around one o'clock, so it's normal if they haven't shown up yet."

"If you're tired, you can take a nap. When the target appears, I'll wake you up."

Although Lin Li's routine was generally healthy, staying up late occasionally wasn't enough to make him yawn, especially when a quick absorption of Spiritual Qi could instantly rejuvenate him.

Yangliang waved his hand, signaling no need.

What a joke, with Lin Li awake next to me, choosing to sleep now? How could anyone sleep in that case – even with Ao Song around, it couldn't happen.

"It's not about whether you're sleepy now; young people have high energy when you have school tomorrow morning, what then?"

Yan Aosong continued picking up from Yangliang's talk:
