Chapter 203: Please Catch Us Quickly
by xennovel“Thud—”
As the watermelon knife descended, the severed fingers flew a meter away, splattering blood on the faces of the three robbers nearby.
“Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!”
The third robber hugged his severed hand, screaming in agony as he rolled on the ground, his face turning deathly pale.
The entire Cinema went eerily silent, only filled with the piercing screams of the third robber as everyone watched the scene in terror.
Our Xu Bro from society—ruthless and doesn’t talk much.
“The rest is up to you. Do as you please.”
Xu Shaochen looked at Long Yi and Long Er, speaking indifferently to avoid dirtying his own hands with this trash.
Long Yi and Long Er picked up the knives from the floor, flashing a bloodthirsty grin as they looked at the four robbers who once exuded a fierce aura but now resembled helpless lambs.
“No! Don’t come closer! If you dare hit us again, I’ll call the police!”
The leader of the robbers kept retreating, terror filling his eyes as he looked at Long Yi and Long Er, his face ashen with fear.
Everyone else couldn’t help but twitch at the corners of their mouths—how desperate must one be for a robber to threaten someone by calling the police?
“Don’t worry, the knife is quick. It won’t hurt.”
Long Yi’s tone was gentle as he spoke, smiling and shaking his head. But then, his smile faded as he grabbed the leader’s hand and chopped it off.
“Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!”
Then, the Cinema echoed with one scream after another. The more arrogant the robbers had been, the more miserable they were now.
The four robbers huddled in a corner, trembling in fear. They had committed over a dozen crimes, killed four people, and violated at least ten women during their spree.
But this was their first time encountering someone more ruthless than themselves. They were utterly terrified.
They had never wished for the police to arrive so soon.
“Bang!”
“Freeze! Hands up!”
The Cinema’s door was kicked open as several armed police officers barged in, aiming their guns at Long Yi and Long Er, ready for anything.
After all, one look at Long Yi and Long Er’s demeanor made it clear they weren’t ordinary people.
When the police saw the four robbers huddled in the corner, looking like victims, it only confirmed their suspicions about Long Yi and Long Er’s brutality.
“Officers, you’re mistaken! Those four are the real robbers. These two are the ones who saved us!”
“Yeah, yeah, you’re mistaken! They’re the saviors!”
The people in the Cinema hurried to speak up, defending Long Yi and Long Er.
Although Long Yi and Long Er had been a bit harsh, the people believed it wasn’t excessive, given that the robbers deserved worse.
“…”
The police officers were dumbfounded. They glanced at each other in confusion.
They never expected the robbers to look more pitiful than the victims.
“Officers, we’ve been hoping and praying for you to come. Please, please arrest us quickly!”
“Yes, yes, please arrest us! We’ve killed people. The case in Song City was our doing—robbery and murder!”
“And the Yunzhou Cinema robbery was also our doing! We’ve committed so many crimes, we deserve to be cut to pieces. Please, we beg you, arrest us!”
The four robbers scrambled and rolled over to the police, crying as they confessed to their crimes without being asked.
They couldn’t stand staying here for another second. Those two strong men were devils. Cutting off fingers was one thing, but breaking nails? That was insane! For the first time, they realized the police, whom they once despised, actually looked so kindly.
The police: “…”
In all their years of service, this was the first time they had encountered something like this. They didn’t know how to respond.
But soon, everyone became excited. If what the robbers said was true, they had just cracked a major case.
“Quickly! Arrest them!” The leading officer suppressed his excitement and waved his hand decisively.
Several officers stepped forward to restrain the four robbers, who, instead of being afraid, felt a sense of relief as if they had survived a catastrophe.
Seeing this, the police couldn’t help but twitch their facial muscles. What had just happened here?
“Gentlemen, though you acted heroically, you were a bit too rough. So, please come with us and assist in the investigation.”
The leading officer saluted Long Yi and Long Er and then politely requested their cooperation.
Long Yi and Long Er looked at Xu Shaochen, who nodded, indicating there was no problem.
“Officer, I need to report something! He hit me! Look, the handprint is still on my face! Everyone here saw it! They can all testify on my behalf!”
At that moment, the woman in the Cheongsam suddenly screamed and pointed at Xu Shaochen, her eyes filled with venom.
How dare you hit me? I’ll make sure you reflect on it in jail!
“Officer, don’t listen to her nonsense. The injury on her face was caused by the robbers. She’s deliberately framing someone.”
“Yes, we all saw it. The robbers hit her. She’s repaying kindness with injury, framing someone who saved us. What a white-eyed wolf.”
“Exactly! We can all testify that she’s lying…”
Everyone started speaking up, saying the scar on the Cheongsam woman’s face was for the robbers to take responsibility for.
“You… You’re all lying! Officers, you have to believe me. He’s the one who hit me!”
The Cheongsam woman was shocked that everyone was blatantly lying. Her face turned pale with anger as she weakly pointed at Xu Shaochen in protest.
The officer frowned and looked at the robbers: “Did you do this?”
“Yes, yes, we did it! Please, just arrest us! We’re begging you!”
Without a second thought, the robbers nodded frantically like pecking chickens. This place was a nightmare, and they didn’t want to stay another second.
They had already confessed to robbery, murder, and rape. What difference did an extra slap make?
“Take them away.”
The officer didn’t bother with the Cheongsam woman’s nonsense; he waved his hand and led his men out.
“Come back! You all come back!”
The Cheongsam woman yelled at the police’s retreating backs in frustration, but no one paid any attention to her.
“Pah! Ungrateful wolf!”
“Exactly, pah! Shameless!”
The people in the Cinema also left one by one, all spitting on the Cheongsam woman before they did, each casting a cold, mocking glance at her.
“See? The world still has more good people, after all.”
Xu Shaochen smiled at the Cheongsam woman, then left with Xie Wei.
The Cheongsam woman stared at Xu Shaochen’s back with eyes full of hatred. She took out her phone, dialing a number, and said in a tearful, wronged voice, “Honey, someone bullied me. You have to avenge me…”
