Chapter 21: 4 stolen goods, the Great Sage settles the accounts, and the reward arrives in advance.
After enduring the wait, Officer Zhao arrived with his men.
As the four people walked in, the other tenants couldn't help but stare.
"They actually called the police!"
"Oh my god! The police really came!"
"This is a serious matter!"
"It seems that Lin Yaozu was telling the truth; this guy really is a wanted criminal."
"That was terrifying! I almost ended up living with a wanted criminal."
"..."
At the same moment, the sub-landlord's face was also filled with shock.
police?
Real police?
Do not!
wrong!
fake!
It's absolutely fake!
Thinking this, the sub-landlord immediately jumped out.
"Wait! Are you really police officers? Show me your identification!"
Upon hearing this, Officer Zhao was somewhat bewildered.
Let us get our certificates?
Couldn't he see the police uniform?
Whose subordinate is this? Is he really that brave?
"These are our identification documents! Take a good look! Who are you?"
Officer Zhao, with a stern face, questioned him.
After reading the information, the sub-landlord's face turned deathly pale.
Ruined!
This time we've met the real Li Kui!
The other party was actually real.
Upon hearing the question, the sub-landlord immediately began to stammer.
"I...I...I'm the landlord..."
His words were vague and ambiguous, and he didn't mention that he was a middleman who sublet.
However, Officer Zhao only needed to glance at the person to recognize their true identity.
But right now, the most important thing is to catch the wanted criminals; minor issues like illegal subletting need to be dealt with later.
The next moment, Officer Zhao pushed the person aside and checked the wanted criminal on the ground first.
Officer Zhao carefully compared the two, his face beaming with joy.
"That's right! It's Zhou Shuhua! That's great! Xiao Liu, quickly notify the station chief, we've caught an A-level wanted criminal."
"Old Song, Daqi, take him away!"
Not far away, the sub-landlord stared wide-eyed.
"What? It really is a wanted criminal!"
A lingering sense of fear crept in.
Meanwhile, Officer Zhao walked up to Lin Yaozu and spoke in an excited tone.
"Kobayashi, thanks to you this time! That's how this guy got caught!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yaozu raised an eyebrow and smiled.
"Hahaha... police-community cooperation, right! Oh, and Lao Zhao! Don't forget to follow up on my bonus!"
Meanwhile, the sub-landlord, who had been eavesdropping, seemed to suddenly realize something and quickly took out his phone to frantically search.
Zhou Shuhua... Zhou Shuhua...
In an instant, the list of Class A wanted persons came into view.
He glanced at the information above, and the next moment, his gaze was fixed on a certain astronomical number.
Suddenly, a scream echoed throughout the rented room.
"Ahhh! He...he...he actually offered a bounty of 500,000?!"
The sub-landlord's eyes were filled with greed, like a badger eyeing a melon patch. He suddenly darted out, gesturing and making noises.
"It was me... I brought the wanted criminal here... You wouldn't have caught him without me... I'll get a share of the reward."
As he spoke, his mind raced, and he pointed to the injury on his face, shouting incessantly.
"Officer, I need to report a crime! The injuries on my body were all inflicted by that Lin Yaozu!"
"I'm going to sue him and make him compensate me for medical expenses and emotional distress. The entire 500,000 yuan prize money should be mine!"
Officer Zhao's sharp eyes landed on the sub-landlord.
Picking peaches?
You dare to jump out and compete for this kind of prize money that you worked so hard for?
Not far away, Lin Yaozu spoke again in a low voice.
"Old Zhao, I did beat up that fatso! But I think you should investigate his background more thoroughly."
"When I arrested that Class A wanted criminal, he tried every means to protect him and even attempted to stop me."
"Maybe the two are closely related. The reason they couldn't be caught before might be because he was covering for the wanted criminal."
Upon hearing this, Officer Zhao's expression changed slightly.
Although it sounds a bit far-fetched, this possibility cannot be ruled out.
It's okay, why did you jump out to stop me?
Moreover, when they came in just now, this guy also took the initiative to create obstacles.
This unusual behavior alone raises many questions.
The sub-landlord was sweating profusely with anxiety.
"Bullshit! You're the one who's connected to the wanted criminal! I...I...I...He's the one who contacted me...I don't even know him..."
At that moment, Lin Yaozu spoke again, adding insult to injury.
"Old Zhao, this rental property doesn't seem to comply with any regulations! It poses a huge safety hazard..."
Although the rest of the sentence was left unsaid, that was enough.
Officer Zhao made a quick decision and said in a serious tone.
"That's right! You're coming back to the station with me now to cooperate with the investigation!"
And so, Lin Yaozu came empty-handed, left carrying a package, and took the sub-landlord away with a gloating expression.
In short, as long as you insist that the other party intended to obstruct you, the beating will be for nothing.
……
A few hours later, Lin Yaozu once again got a free meal at the canteen of the Qinghu District Police Station.
Just as they finished eating and drinking, Officer Zhao, who had just left in a hurry, reappeared.
"Xiaolin, the information you provided to the thief gang has made great progress."
"A large bag of gold and silver jewelry was dug out from under that big tree, estimated to be worth around 15 million."
Upon hearing this news, Lin Yaozu couldn't help but clutch his heart, feeling a sudden pang of heartache.
We missed out on 15 million!
Nima!
You should have said so earlier!
That damn bastard, why didn't he just explain himself?
Are there any good items left?
TMD!
If you don't speak clearly, you deserve to be stuck with the sewing machine.
On the other side, Officer Zhao continued.
"Although it's still far from the 40 million loss reported by the store, we've already recovered some of it, which is a good start."
"hiss……"
Lin Yaozu gasped.
Forty million?
Is Zun Du fake Du?
A gold shop lost 40 million yuan worth of gold jewelry!
Why does it give me this feeling of the Monkey King with the flat tent?
Could it be...? The water's really deep...
Noticing the strange looks, Officer Zhao shrugged and said meaningfully.
"I don't know the specifics; they said the surveillance cameras are broken!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yaozu twitched the corner of his mouth and uttered a sigh.
"I've stumbled into a celestial trap! How treacherous!"
Officer Zhao did not respond to that question.
"This case can basically be closed here! The criminal gang has been apprehended, some of the stolen goods have been recovered, but the rest cannot be tracked down due to unforeseen circumstances."
Lin Yaozu waved his hand, not intending to discuss it further, and casually asked.
"Old Zhao, why are you telling me all this! Don't you have any good news that's relevant to me?"
Officer Zhao thought for a moment and continued.
"It's true! It was a special case! The reward for your report on the theft gang was approved ahead of schedule. The higher-ups gave you 2 yuan, and the jewelry store was so grateful that they added another 3 yuan."
"A total of 5. Just sign here, and the money will be deposited into your bank account within 24 hours."
Lin Yaozu smiled broadly, his eyes shining.
"Great! That's really good news!"
What does it matter if the accounts are balanced or not? This bonus is what really matters.
It comes from a legitimate source, anyone can check it, and you can shop with peace of mind.
