Chapter 54: When the Crime Was in Progress? Attempted theft is also a crime!

Seeing his back, Tian Genzhui sighed helplessly.
He was almost used to it.
Anyway, he was just a courier man today.
However, these were all achievements. Even if he was a courier, he was still very happy.
Moreover, the director had asked them to come over previously just to get them to cooperate with Su Xuan.
Then they would cooperate!
“You guys go around and take a look. Remember to pay attention and cooperate with Su Xuan. I’ll bring him to the car first!”
As Tian Gencui spoke, he brought the criminal back to the car.
The other police officers did not say much and scattered as they were assigned.
In addition to supporting Su Xuan, his colleagues naturally hoped they’d catch a criminal themselves. Could they perhaps ride Su Xuan’s lucky streak? The place must be teeming with criminals, right? A veritable den of thieves, as it were.
Charge!
The criminals in the crowd were speechless.
You’re really inhumane. You using us as your performance pad for promotion?
Do you have any human rights?
Unaware of his colleagues’ musings, Su Xuan had already arrived at the ticket hall. Instead of joining a queue, he went directly to a vending machine for drinks and bought a bottle of water. Catching so many people in one go had left him slightly parched. A sip of water would be good.
Just as he was twisting off the bottle cap, he noticed a man who looked hesitant approaching an elderly man. Su Xuan paused, intrigued but somewhat puzzled. The guy didn’t look like a criminal; his Sin Value if Su Xuan were to judge, would be less than five.
Generally speaking, there was a sin value above everyone’s head. However, if the sin value was less than five, then they were normal people.
he system calculates the sin score based on various factors, and doesn’t care if you are a criminal or not. Even Su Xuan himself had a sin score of two. When he asked the system why, he was told it was because he ate meat and had lied before.
“Really?” Su Xuan thought. “Well, it’s impossible for anyone not to have a sin score.”
So, at this moment, the sin score of the man walking towards the elderly gentleman was within the normal range. What startled Su Xuan was that the elderly man’s sin score was over 100! Anyone with a sin score over 100 is typically more than a petty thief.
“Could he be a fugitive?” Su Xuan pondered, his eyes lighting up at the thought.
Even though he had his suspicions, Su Xuan didn’t use any points to purchase a one-time tool to verify it. Are you kidding? Those one-time tools cost money, and he had to save up his points. He never really understood the system’s logic in allocating points. Logically speaking, according to Zhao Dongqiang, Su Xuan would get 1,000 points from his 800 Evil Points, but Gao Qi’s 500 points did not have 400 Evil Points.
Later on, he simply stopped thinking about it and waited for the system to distribute points for him. This bullshit system must have cheated him of points!
The System was speechless. [Quiet as a chicken]
At this moment, Su Xuan watched as the man approached the old man with small steps, and his hands were ready to move.
In Su Xuan’s eyes, the Sin Value above the man’s head, which was originally in the normal range, slowly rose. Then, as the man retracted his hand, it returned to the normal range.
The man’s hands were restless, and the Sin Value above his head were clearly flickering.
It floated up and down.
Su Xuan was speechless.
So he just happened to meet someone who was walking towards the evil side?
Seeing that the man was at most in his twenties, Su Xuan could not bear to see him really walk the path of crime. Even if it was just a small theft, it would make people lose their bottom line.
Once they lost their bottom line, they would go further and further down the path of crime.
Thinking of this, Su Xuan stopped drinking and walked over. He reached out and put his arm around the man’s shoulder.
The man was hesitant to begin with, unsure if he should extend his hand.
At this moment, he was suddenly caught by someone, and his heart skipped a beat.
He subconsciously looked up.
He met Su Xuan’s smiling face.” Yo, brother, why are you here too?”
“I heard you say that you were in another province. When did you come back?”
“Why didn’t you give me a call? Let’s have a good gathering!?”
Before the man could react, Su Xuan wrapped his arms around his neck and walked to the side.
The older man, who had just been targeted by the younger male, glanced at him and noticed the two seemed quite close. Reassured, he resumed fumbling with his canvas bag.
Su Xuan, catching sight of this from the corner of his eye and knowing that his “sin value” could keep tabs on the young man’s location, decided to make his move. He wrapped an arm around the younger male and guided him out of the hall.
It wasn’t until they had stepped outside that the younger man realized something was amiss. Pushing Su Xuan away, he blurted out, “Who the hell are you? Do 1 know you? You can’t just come up and embrace me like that!”
Although he had been hesitant before, missing out on a potential moneymaking opportunity had left him quite irritated. His tone when speaking to Su Xuan lost a measure of courtesy.
In response, Su Xuan calmly reached into his pocket and pulled out his police badge. The man’s previously annoyed expression instantly froze on his face. Disbelief clouding his eyes, he gaped at the badge Su Xuan held. After a stunned moment, he turned and bolted.
Su Xuan was quick. He grabbed the man, pulling him back. The latter wore a face full of regret, as if wishing he could turn back time.
“Police, police officer.”
“Yes, yes, yes, I’m sorry. 1 was wrong!”
“I really just made a move. 1 haven’t even made a move and I’ve already been caught by you. Please let me go.”
“Officer, if I wasn’t desperate, I wouldn’t have done such a thing.”
The man could not help but say.
As he spoke, Su Xuan could clearly see the Sin Value on his forehead fall back.
It was obvious that he had given up on the idea of being a thief after being hit by Su Xuan.
“Where are you from? What’s your ID number?” Su Xuan asked. “Might as well perform a check.”
For people like this who got caught right from the start, Su Xuan found himself in a bit of a dilemma. However, letting the guy go simply wasn’t an option. If he were to release him just like that, who knows? The guy might think he could pull off the same stunt next time. After all, even an attempted theft is a crime.
As expected, the man’s expression shifted again when he heard Su Xuan mention the check. “Officer…” he couldn’t help but speak up, hoping Su Xuan would let him go.
But why would Su Xuan ever do that?
“ID card,” Su Xuan reiterated.
Upon hearing those words, the man’s face changed once more. Reluctantly, he took out his identification. Deep inside, he was awash with regret.
Had he known it would turn out like this, he would never have engaged in such a morally reprehensible act. He couldn’t believe he was caught by the police just as he was about to make his move.
He was regretful, so incredibly regretful..
