Captain Xu, Please Stop Showing Off Your Skills

After realizing that the shop owner was a generous person, the customers' desire to buy skyrocketed.

The shop owner, however, was left dumbfounded and began trying to dissuade the customers.

"Everyone... please consume rationally!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd immediately became displeased.

Rational consumption? That didn’t exist for them!

They were determined to indulge in reckless spending!

"You’re allowed to give free breakfast to hardworking police officers, but we can’t buy more from your shop?"

"Exactly! I want to buy more today, boss. Stop talking nonsense and hurry up with the orders!"

"Not just today, I’ll be back tomorrow too. You better prepare well before opening tomorrow."

"..."

Xu Mo, carrying a large bag of breakfast in his left hand and holding a criminal in his right, couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly.

The crowd ahead was too dense, and he couldn’t squeeze through.

With no other choice, he decided to take the breakfast and the criminal to the police station first. As for the payment, he could settle it tomorrow when he bought breakfast again.

And so, Xu Mo, with one hand dragging the freshly caught criminal and the other carrying breakfast, returned to the police station.

At the entrance, he ran into Han Fei, who had just arrived.

"What’s going on here?"

"Caught a thief while buying breakfast," Xu Mo replied. "Have you eaten yet, Captain Han? If not, I’ve got some extra here. Take some, and I’ll distribute the rest to the others."

"I’ve already eaten. I’ll take this guy down for you. You go ahead and hand out the breakfast."

With that, Han Fei escorted the thief Xu Mo had caught and left.

While the officers were eating, Han Fei interrogated the thief.

The more he asked, the more shocking the answers became.

It turned out that the thief had started his life of crime just over a month ago. In that short span, he had stolen over a hundred electric bikes.

On average, he stole at least two bikes a day.

According to him, he wasn’t particularly short on money. His frequent thefts were driven by an addiction to the indescribable thrill and excitement of stealing.

If he went a day without stealing, he felt extremely uneasy.

After the interrogation, Han Fei immediately processed the man according to the relevant regulations.

...

"You have successfully apprehended a criminal. Reward received: 500,000 in cash; the range of the Criminal Detection Radar has expanded by one meter (current range: 51 meters)."

Since the crimes committed by the apprehended criminal weren’t particularly severe, the reward wasn’t overly generous—just 500,000 in cash.

The notification sound rang out while Xu Mo was eating breakfast.

He could feel that the range of the Criminal Detection Radar had indeed increased significantly, but Xu Mo wasn’t satisfied with just 51 meters. He wanted the radar’s range to expand further, preferably to over a thousand meters, or even better, to cover the entire jurisdiction of their police station.

If that happened, catching criminals would become much easier.

There would be no need for painstaking investigations. He could simply sit in his office and know exactly where the criminals were.

At that point, no crime within their jurisdiction would be able to escape detection.

With this goal in mind, after finishing his breakfast, Xu Mo grabbed his handcuffs and left the station.

To maximize the number of criminals he could catch and expand the range of the Criminal Detection Radar, Xu Mo went all out, driving around the area all morning.

At first, the officers didn’t notice anything unusual.

After all, they were well aware of Xu Mo’s capabilities. It was only natural for someone as skilled as Xu Mo to catch a few criminals, right?

However, as time went on, the officers began to realize that something was off.

What was going on with Xu Mo?

Was he using some kind of cheat code?

Every time he went out, he returned with three criminals in no time at all!

How was he catching them so efficiently?!

Did he have GPS trackers installed on the criminals or something?!

As a result, the officers spent the entire morning doing nothing but processing the criminals Xu Mo brought in.

Xu Mo would catch three criminals, bring them back to the station, then immediately head out again to catch more, repeating the cycle over and over.

By the end of the morning, Xu Mo had achieved remarkable results. Thanks to the unique capabilities of the Criminal Detection Radar, he had managed to apprehend a total of sixty-six criminals of various types.

The system notifications were almost non-stop.

"You have successfully apprehended a criminal. Reward received: 500,000 in cash; the range of the Criminal Detection Radar has expanded by one meter (current range: 52 meters)."

"You have successfully apprehended a criminal. Reward received: 500,000 in cash; the range of the Criminal Detection Radar has expanded by one meter (current range: 53 meters)."

"You have successfully apprehended a criminal. Reward received: 500,000 in cash; the range of the Criminal Detection Radar has expanded by one meter (current range: 54 meters)."

"..."

"You have successfully apprehended a criminal. Reward received: 500,000 in cash; the range of the Criminal Detection Radar has expanded by one meter (current range: 117 meters)."

In the end, Xu Mo, the one doing the catching, was unfazed, but the officers responsible for interrogating and processing the criminals were utterly exhausted.

Xu Mo’s speed in apprehending criminals was simply too fast. He would return with three criminals in no time, then immediately head out again to catch more. The officers’ speed in handling the cases couldn’t keep up with Xu Mo’s efficiency.

In just one morning, Xu Mo had caught as many criminals as the station usually apprehended in several months.

The officers were also shocked to discover just how many criminals were lurking within their jurisdiction.

The criminals Xu Mo brought in were involved in a wide range of offenses, from petty theft to economic crimes, arson, and even murder—basically, every kind of wrongdoing imaginable.

Finally, Han Fei couldn’t take it anymore. After Xu Mo brought in another three criminals, Han Fei approached him and said,

"Xu Mo, you... you need to slow down! Our station can’t handle this many criminals in such a short time. Take a break, alright? It’s lunchtime now. Have a meal, rest a bit, and then you can continue catching criminals later. I’m worried you’ll overwork yourself. Your health is what matters most."

Han Fei spoke while panting heavily and gulping down water.

Whether he was genuinely concerned about Xu Mo’s well-being was debatable, but one thing was certain: he was completely worn out.

For the entire morning, Han Fei hadn’t stopped talking, either interrogating suspects or on his way to interrogate more. His lips were practically worn out from all the talking.

He had no idea where Xu Mo was finding so many criminals!
