"Big Brother, please take it, I beg you, let me go!" The thief cried as he handed the handbag to Chen Haoxuan.
After receiving the handbag, Chen Haoxuan shouted angrily, "Don't let me catch you stealing again, or you'll regret it."
Hearing Chen Haoxuan's words, the thief and his accomplices ran away, occasionally letting out cries of pain as the vibrations from running aggravated their wounds.
Chen Haoxuan turned around and handed the handbag to Leah, saying lightly, "Your bag."
Leah took the handbag and happily said to Chen Haoxuan, "Thank you! I didn't expect to see you in such a situation."
"I'll take my leave now. Bye." Chen Haoxuan waved to Leah and tried to leave.
At that moment, the crowd parted to make way for Li De, who came out with a dozen police officers. Seeing Chen Haoxuan there, Li De smiled and greeted him, "Xuan, you're here too!"
"Director, I didn't know you were coming, so I just let those little thieves go. I'm sorry," Chen Haoxuan replied apologetically.
Upon hearing this, Li De hurriedly asked Chen Haoxuan, "What did those thieves look like? Please describe them clearly."
"The thief was a boy about fifteen years old. He wore a black baseball cap, a white shirt, and tight jeans. He was about one hundred sixty-five centimeters tall... He also had two accomplices who were around..." Chen Haoxuan described the appearance of the thieves.
"Did you all remember that? Go chase them down now; we must catch them," Li De said sternly to his subordinates.
The dozen police officers that Li De brought quickly chased after the direction the thieves had fled. Seeing how anxious Li De was, Chen Haoxuan felt that something important must be happening.
"Director, those thieves aren't murderers, are they?" Chen Haoxuan asked.
Li De sighed and explained, "They're not murderers; they're thieves—part of an organized gang. They've been committing crimes everywhere lately, causing over ten thefts every day in New City. Because of this issue, I've been scolded by the mayor many times. He has given me strict orders that if I can't resolve this matter within this month, he'll dismiss me from my position."
"How many of them are there? Who is organizing them?" Chen Haoxuan asked seriously.
"I don't know how many of them there are, or who is organizing them, but I suspect they are from the Black Heart Gang, and that Black Heart is behind it," Li De said.
"Haven't you caught Black Heart yet?" Chen Haoxuan asked.
Li De replied apologetically, "No, we have issued a nationwide wanted notice for him, but we still haven't found him. Xuan, there are too many people here; let's find a quieter place to talk!"
"My car is just up ahead; let's take my car to my place!" Chen Haoxuan said.
Leah saw that Chen Haoxuan and the others were leaving, so she hurried to catch up. It was not easy for her to see Chen Haoxuan today, and she didn't want to miss the opportunity to spend time with him.
Chen Haoxuan got into the car, and Li De sat in the passenger seat. With a bang, the back door of the car closed. Chen Haoxuan turned around and saw Leah had also jumped into his car. "Your handbag is about to be returned; why are you still following me?" Chen Haoxuan said unhappily to Leah.
"I love you," Leah said affectionately in Mandarin. This was something she had learned recently; she could now say dozens of phrases like good morning, good night, I love you, and I like you.
Chen Haoxuan slapped his forehead, feeling both amused and exasperated. "Heavenly Father, are you playing tricks on me, or is this destined to be my romantic fortune?"
Li De patted Chen Haoxuan on the shoulder to comfort him and laughed, "You helped her get her handbag back; it's only right that she offers herself in return. Just put up with it and marry her!"
"I already have a girlfriend; if you like her, then go ahead and marry her!" Chen Haoxuan said with a bitter expression.
"Chen Haoxuan, I really like you," Leah thought that Chen Haoxuan hadn't understood her Mandarin earlier, so she said another sentence.
Chen Haoxuan wore a helpless expression and said to Leah in English, "Miss, I don't have time for romance right now; I have very important things to do. So please get out of the car, okay?"
"I'll go too; I promise I won't disturb you," Leah said earnestly to Chen Haoxuan.
"Sigh..." Chen Haoxuan sighed. When it came to girls—especially beautiful ones—he felt helpless. He couldn't hit or scold them; if they decided to act stubbornly, he had no way to deal with it.
Leah did not get out of the car, and Chen Haoxuan dared not take her back to his place. If Chen Yina saw them, she would definitely be very angry. So, Chen Haoxuan took Leah and Li De to a luxurious hotel. He booked a private room and ordered some food and drinks, chatting with Li De while they ate.
From Li De, Chen Haoxuan learned that theft was a serious issue in New City. Li De shared his suspicions with Chen Haoxuan, who responded, "I also suspect it's him."
"The police force in New City has been deployed everywhere. It took them several days to catch a few thieves, but they refuse to reveal who the mastermind is. It seems that the mastermind is a very terrifying person, making them too scared to say a word," Li De said.
"Director, you could use a long line to catch a big fish! Let someone flaunt a large stack of money around. The thieves hiding in the shadows will definitely take action when they see it. Then you let him steal, and once he has stolen something, he will surely return to his hideout. You can follow him all the way back to their lair and capture them all at once. This way, you won't have to search for them everywhere," Chen Haoxuan suggested with a wicked smile.
With a clap of his hands, Li De exclaimed excitedly, "Yes! How did I not think of that!"
"Go try it out first! If it doesn't work... then think of other methods," Chen Haoxuan replied.
"Xuan, let me toast you for your suggestion," Li De said happily as he raised his glass toward Chen Haoxuan.
"Cheers to your success in eliminating the Black Heart Gang," Chen Haoxuan smiled. He felt uneasy as long as Black Heart was not behind bars. Unlike ordinary people, Black Heart had many underlings and was willing to use firearms openly against the police. If Li De couldn't deal with Black Heart, Chen Haoxuan wouldn't mind taking matters into his own hands.
Leah felt ignored by Chen Haoxuan and Li De; she had been sitting there for so long without them saying a word to her. She tried to interject several times, but they pretended not to hear her, which made Leah so angry that she almost wanted to flip the table.
