“Stop, police!”
“Don’t run! Stop!”
After rushing into the last carriage, Su Xuan didn’t conceal his identity anymore. He dashed after the thief, shouting as he went.
On this pursuit, his radar didn’t detect any other criminals, so there was no need to hide his identity anymore.
However, it was evident that the thief was not deterred by Su Xuan’s shouts. He wasn’t a fool; if he stopped now, he would surely be caught.
Unexpectedly, as he ran, he entered the last carriage, and the subway had not stopped yet. He had nowhere to run!
The thief clenched his teeth and turned to see that only one policeman was chasing him. He immediately felt somewhat relieved. He even slowed down his pace.
“Damn, cop! Who are you trying to intimidate?”
“Let me tell you, when you were still in diapers, 1 was already active in the world of thieves!”
“Thinking of catching me? Wishful thinking!”
“I advise you to let me go now, or else…”
The thief said and took out a folding knife from his pocket, directly unfolding the blade! The fluorescent shiny pointed blade was aimed straight at Su Xuan.
“Ah!”
“He has a knife!”
“Help! Save us!”
“Police officer, hurry up and catch him!”
Passengers who had been puzzled initially screamed as they witnessed this scene. They immediately distanced themselves, leaving a considerable gap in the middle.
Su Xuan stopped in his tracks when he saw this scene, and his face turned ugly.
At the same time, Zheng Wenjie, who had finally met a transit police officer and handed over the thief, also caught up.
Standing beside Su Xuan, he watched the thief holding a knife.
Although there was an additional police officer, the thief had a knife in hand and was far from being intimidated.
“Just you two want to catch me? Are you looking for trouble?”
“Brother, we’re just stealing a few things. We’re not murderers or arsonists. Is it necessary for you to chase us so tightly?”
“We’re all human beings. Is it worth risking your life for a few pieces of silver?”
“Here’s the deal. Today, I won’t use the knife, and you won’t handcuff me.
When the subway arrives at the station, I’ll leave…”
The thief spoke, waving the folding knife in his hand, threatening Su Xuan and the others.
“If you’re unwilling, let’s settle this today. We’ll see who’s faster: your handcuffs or my knife!”
“Be careful; this knife has no mercy!”
This threat was quite blatant.
Before Su Xuan could respond, Zheng Wenjie had already clenched his fist and stepped forward.
“Whew! For so many years, no one has dared to brandish a knife in front of me. Well, today, let me show you!”
“Good, you understand what it means to attack a police officer with a weapon, right?”
“What was originally a petty theft case, at most, a few days in jail. But now that you’ve pulled out a knife, it’s different…”
“This is an arrest, with an additional charge of assaulting a police officer! You’ll be enjoying free meals inside for a few years!”
Upon hearing these words, the thief’s initially arrogant demeanor diminished noticeably, clearly showing signs of fear.
He glanced around and noticed that all eyes were on him. The fear and tension in their eyes pierced through him, and the thief suddenly grew angry again.
Brandishing the knife in his hand, he shouted at the passengers around him, “What are you looking at, you bunch of scoundrels!”
“Just because I stole some of your things, you keep complaining day in and day out. If it weren’t for you people, why would there be so many police officers?”
“D*mn it, I’m not a murderer or an arsonist. What’s wrong with stealing your stuff?”
“What kind of looks are you giving me? I’ll stab every one of you to death!”
The thief’s words were full of arrogance. Waving the knife menacingly, he continued his tirade.
At this point, the passengers in the last compartment, who were already few in number, huddled in a corner, watching the thief in fear. No one dared to speak up.
Meanwhile, the subway was announcing the upcoming station stop. Even the double-door alarm lights were flashing, indicating that the train was about to stop.
Hearing the station announcement, the thief sneered. Seeing the frightened looks of the passengers, he muttered, “Cowards!”
He then glanced toward the entrance and began to move slowly.
“Smart ones, don’t move,” he warned. “The train is arriving, and I’ll leave immediately.”
“Only a few thousand bucks a month. It’s not worth you risking your lives for!”
Hearing this, both Su Xuan and Zheng Wenjie exchanged a glance, their expressions turning serious.
The thief could tell that these two were not going to let him go. He clutched the folding knife and immediately charged at Su Xuan.
Compared to Zheng Wenjie, who was older, it was evident that Su Xuan, being younger, would be easier to deal with.
Su Xuan thought to himself, “Who gave you the courage?”
Although Su Xuan was unarmed, he had received training in apprehension techniques. Plus, he had the advantage of enhanced physical abilities from the body-enhancing potion he had taken.
Dealing with a mere thief was a piece of cake.
With a swift move, Su Xuan charged at the thief.
At this moment, Zheng Wenjie’s expression turned particularly grim.
Every police officer undergoes systematic training in apprehension techniques before they start working. They have a set of techniques for apprehending thieves, but it’s usually applied in situations where they directly confront thieves.
However, in cases like this, facing an armed criminal without any weapons, the police officers find themselves at a disadvantage. If they resort to physical confrontation, they might end up with more than a few holes in their bodies.
Zheng Wenjie immediately pressed the communication device, preparing to call for backup.
At the same time, he reminded aloud.
“Su Xuan, be careful!” he shouted into the radio. “1’11 call for help, and I’ll come to assist you!”
Zheng Wenjie, being an experienced member of the Anti-Pickpocketing Team, was well aware that their team received daily training. Their skills were far superior to those of Su Xuan, who was not part of their specialized unit.
However, the criminal had targeted Su Xuan, not him, so he had to call for backup.
Unexpectedly, right after he turned to reach for his communication device, he witnessed Su Xuan swiftly knocked away the criminal’s wrist that was holding the foldable knife. Su Xuan then followed it up with a powerful kick aimed at the criminal’s nose.
That kick went so high it almost reached the guy’s head!
The criminal froze for a moment, then Su Xuan delivered a powerful kick straight to his face, causing a sharp crack as his nasal bone snapped. He fell to the ground in agony. Taking advantage of this moment, Su Xuan swiftly kicked the folding knife out of the criminal’s hand.
“Alih!”
The criminal let out a wailing cry, leaving Zheng Wenjie in shock.
These young folks nowadays…
Do they all have such impressive physical abilities?
That was a split kick!
