The three men on the other side were indeed the kings among thieves.
When Su Xuan and Zheng Wenjie rushed over, the three of them immediately sensed that something was amiss and dodged.
Only Zhou Qiang, who was caught in the middle, tried to escape but found himself blocked from both sides, ending up caught squarely in their grasp.
Su Xuan and Zheng Wenjie immediately secured both of Zhou Qiang’s hands, clamping on two pairs of silver handcuffs.
Zhou Qiang’s expression changed instantly!
Even if he were incredibly foolish, at this moment, he knew that Su Xuan and Zheng Wenjie were undoubtedly law enforcement officers!
Not only had the two men who went to the restroom with Su Xuan disappeared, but now, with the silver handcuffs on his wrists, it was evident that the two people before him were likely undercover cops.
Zhou Qiang immediately felt betrayed!
“Zhang Sheng… Luo San! You two betrayed me!”
“Damn it!”
Zhou Qiang cursed, and the other two criminals who had managed to evade Su Xuan and Zheng Wenjie’s attack turned pale.
Especially Luo San, who was closer to the inside, shouted at Zhou Qiang, “It’s not me!”
“Of course, it’s not me!” Zhang Sheng added, “Damn it, I’m not stupid! If 1 help catch you, 1’11 get caught too!”
“Why would I betray you?”
However, Zhou Qiang didn’t believe a word they said!
It was clear as day now.
The cops were already here, and Zhou Qiang had thought his journey here was entirely safe, with no one discovering his secret.
But now, there were two undercover cops, and they had entered one after the other!
That meant one of the four people who had come to eat after receiving his message was a snitch!
“Damn it!”
“We’re all from the same place, and you dare to betray me? Aren’t you afraid 1’11 expose you?!”
Zhou Qiang was furious. “Just you wait! If I get caught today, none of you will get away!”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Sheng and Luo San exchanged glances and then rushed towards the door together!
They shouted, “Zhou Qiang, believe me, we didn’t betray you!”
“Even though we don’t know who exposed our information, it’s too late now!”
“The 36th stratagem: If all else fails, retreat. Farewell!”
Seeing that Su Xuan and Zheng Wenjie were occupied with capturing Zhou Qiang, the two criminals assumed that Su Xuan and Zheng Wenjie wouldn’t have time to catch them. Seizing the opportunity, they made a dash for the door.
In the blink of an eye, Su Xuan pushed Zhou Qiang towards Zheng Wenjie and darted forward himself.
With a swift motion, he grabbed a stool from inside the shop and swung it at the two criminals.
His movements were lightning-fast, and he had two handcuffs in his hands.
He activated the Ghostly Evasion Step.
It was at this moment that Su Xuan remembered he had used points to purchase the Ghostly Evasion Step yesterday, and it was still within its trial period.
At this point, he had to make the most of it, even if it meant taking a risk.
Su Xuan’s speed was astonishingly fast as he swiftly approached the two criminals who had yet to react. He positioned himself right in front of them.
“Since we came to eat together, how can you leave without finishing the meal?”
“You should at least wait for the meal to be over.”
“Leaving like this, it’s just not honorable!”
As Su Xuan used the Ghostly Evasion Step to exit the shop, he noticed a familiar car approaching from a short distance away.
He immediately calmed down.
Su Xuan had no intention of attacking at this point. He simply stood in front of the two criminals, preventing them from leaving the shop.
The two criminals looked panicked. Facing Su Xuan’s words and his smiling face, their anxiety grew.
Furthermore, their two companions had disappeared without a trace, making the situation even more suspicious.
Could it be that…
Their two companions had also been apprehended by these two police officers.
It dawned on Luo San that after their two companions had entered the restroom, it seemed that the police officer who had been blocking their way had also entered the restroom.
However, while this police officer had come out, their two companions had not…
Perhaps, it wasn’t that they were stuck in the restroom but rather that they had been caught by the police officer!
“You damn cop, get out of my way!”
“Otherwise, do you believe I can kill you right here and now!?”
“Damn it!”
“To think we’d encounter a cop while trying to have a meal. Today is really an unlucky day!”
As Zhang Sheng spoke, he took out a folding knife from his pocket.
He snarled at Su Xuan, “I’ll give you one chance; get lost right now!”
“Otherwise, I’ll stab you right away!”
Hearing these words, Luo San quickly pulled out a stun baton from his pocket, his face twisted with ferocity.
Both of them were focused solely on their weapons, aiming them toward Su Xuan, without regard for anything else.
“Damn cop, step aside!”
They just wanted to get away as quickly as possible now, paying no heed to their companions behind them and to Zhou Qiang, who had been caught.
After all, with these two cops here, who knew if there were more lurking around?
Running now was their only chance to truly escape!
Su Xuan, seeing them brandishing weapons, had no intention of letting them pass. He stepped forward, blocking their path even more firmly, and gave them a cold snort.
“Step aside?”
“Do you think I would step aside?”
“Our comrades are nearby. Do you think you can get away?”
Confronted by Su Xuan’s sharp gaze, the two men finally realized that something was amiss. They began looking around nervously and said in panic: “You guys are actually playing the encirclement card!?”
“Damn it, trying to catch us all at once…”
At this moment, the two criminals were filled with regret. If they hadn’t received Zhou Qiang’s text message and rushed over in such a hurry, especially to this rundown place, they might not have been discovered…
This whole thing might have been caused by Zhou Qiang!
If only they had known, they wouldn’t have come!
The strong will to survive made the two criminals simultaneously lock eyes and charge towards Su Xuan.
Their thoughts were daring. As long as they could break through this obstacle and get out, they didn’t care if there were other cops nearby. They would figure it out after escaping.
However, both of them wanted to use the other as a shield to get out.
So, there was no need for Su Xuan to act. The two of them sabotaged each other.
When the two criminals were just two steps away, Su Xuan sneered and kicked.
Boom!
Boom!
With two loud bangs, Su Xuan kicked both approaching criminals straight back into the hall again.
Before the two of them could get up, Captain Liao had already rushed in with his team.
Two of his team members restrained the two criminals on the ground.
Captain Liao took the lead, charging right to the front.
“Su Xuan! Are you two okay?!”
“How about you, Wenjie?!”
God knew that when they saw Su Xuan confronting two armed criminals, they were nervous beyond measure. Not only Captain Liao, even the anti-pickpocketing team members were on edge.
They were worried that something might happen to Su Xuan.
In their haste, they even rushed out before the car had come to a complete stop.
Luckily, they arrived just in time!
“Tell me, why did you suddenly take action?!”
Captain Liao stared at Su Xuan with a mix of frustration and concern. “They had weapons.. What if something had gone wrong?!”
