Chapter 12 [Catch Thief]

At three o'clock in the morning, when one should be enjoying the aftertaste of Christmas, Rui An ran crazily down the street, holding a police cap in his hand, his deformed hair had been blown into a Super Saiyan by the wind, and he could hear The only thing he could hear was the violent beating of his heart, and the soft ringing in his ears. His eyes were fixed on the person a few meters away from him. The person was dressed in black and was in the same position as Rui An. While running wildly, he was carrying a lady's bag that did not belong to him.

On the sparsely populated street, there were only occasional vehicles passing by. The man ran in a disorganized route, and even crossed the road directly. Rui An chased after him desperately, did not give up at all, and followed him across the road.

The passing vehicles were unknown, so they were forced to stop, and they stuck out their heads and cursed. Rui An didn't have time to explain, but there was only one belief in his heart: catch that thief!

Ease makes people lazy, and laziness makes people even lazier. Only now did Rui An deeply understand the meaning of this sentence, because more than two-thirds of the year was spent patrolling on motorcycles, and the weekly training was also the same. It's fine to pass the grades, so the sharp decline in physical strength has become a flaw that Rui An can't ignore.

Who would have thought that in today's society where there are cameras everywhere, there would still be people robbing so blatantly, and who would have thought that they are already old and have to chase thieves all over the street.

There is always a gap between reality and ideals. Rui An's physical strength is gradually failing. Seeing the distance between the two of them widening, he finally lost track of that person when he turned into one of the alleys.

"Ha, ha, what the hell! Ha..." Rui An slowed down, panting heavily, and sweat dripped down his forehead.

Just when he thought he really couldn't catch up, a miracle happened!

It wasn't that his legs suddenly had infinite strength, nor that he realized superpowers and could instantly move to the thief's side, but a familiar figure surpassed him in an instant.

"Huh?" Rui An opened his mouth wide, and when he finally saw the person with the dark red back clearly, Rhubarb was already far behind him.

The man had long legs, and his running speed was terrifying. The moment he was overtaken, Rui An felt a gust of wind blowing past him. He swallowed and spit, Rui An gritted his teeth and ran again, letting his numb legs run to the limit .

Unfortunately, the alleys in Mencheng District are very dark. Fortunately, the thief hastily forgot that these are all dead-end alleys.Probably due to excessive physical strength, Rui An was dizzy and could only search the alleys with a strong flashlight, and finally saw two people wrestling together in the third alley.

No, this kind of scene can't be called a scuffle. When Rui An got closer, he saw the thief pinned against the wall begging in pain, "Brother, take it easy, it hurts!"

Rui An put on the police cap, first took out the walkie-talkie to report the situation to the team, then picked up the satchel on the ground and approached, using a strong flashlight to shine on the thief whose face had been squeezed and deformed on the wall, raised his eyebrows and asked: " Can you run well?"

"Brother, your hand, your hand is going to be broken!" The thief yelled, grinning his teeth, his eyes were tightly closed under the flashlight, and his flushed face was distorted unseemly, probably because he was particularly uncomfortable being squeezed by Rhubarb from behind.

"Your hand is going to break? I've already broken my leg!" Rui An shouted dissatisfiedly, and even hit the thief on the head with a flashlight.

Rui An breathed a sigh of relief, threw the satchel to Rhubarb, and took the thief casually. He pushed the thief out of the alley, and was about to handcuff the thief by the streetlight, but he didn't expect that the moment he relaxed, the thief threw himself backwards. Kicking, this kick hit Rui An's calf firmly, Rui An grinned in pain, and the eyes were filled with stars, but he still didn't forget to hold the thief's arm tightly.

Probably because he was afraid of Rui An's persistence, the thief pulled out a jackknife in a panic, turned around and stabbed Rui An.

Rui An didn't know that his life was being threatened, and when his leg pain subsided, Da Huang had already stood in front of him, pushed the thief against the wall, and punched him hard.

"Uh!"

"Looking for death." The amber eyes tightened, and another punch landed. In an instant, the person who cried out for pain stopped moving, and he was stunned.

Rui An was startled, and hurried over to stop Rhubarb's violent behavior, but when he saw the thief's face was covered with blood, Rui An immediately thought that Rhubarb had beaten him up, who knew he wasn't there What kind of wound was found on the thief's face, and the little blood around his mouth was all over his face, Rui An was puzzled, this time he quickly detained the thief around the street lamp, and warned: "I don't want to do it again!" Just be honest with me if you suffer!"

As soon as the words fell, Rui An kicked something at his feet, and when he looked down, it turned out to be a jackknife. Rui An picked it up and found that it was covered with blood, as if thinking of something, Rui An frowned and walked to Rhubarb, a little He touched the man's upper body in a panic.

The man grabbed the hand that was groping on him, "Hello."

"Where are you hurt?" Rui An's face was pale, and his eyes finally turned to the right hand that the man was holding unnaturally, he grabbed the man's hand, opened it to look, and immediately gasped, "Why is there so much blood? "

"It's not a serious injury, it's just an exaggeration of blood flow."

The trembling hand was still tightly holding the man's blood-red hand, and he muttered incomprehensibly.

"Rui An." Seemingly aware of the excessive panic of the person in front of him, Da Huang frowned and drew back his hand to remind him.

"..." His eyes gradually gained focus, Rui An looked at the blood stains on his hands, and said slowly, "Sorry."

Not understanding why he should be apologized, the man shook off the blood dripping from his hand, and sat on the rest chair beside him a little tiredly, but his eyes were always on Rui An who was standing there. He seemed to be guessing why Rui An would With such an uneasy expression on his face, he didn't think the relationship between the two was good enough to worry about each other.

There is still some distance from the team to this street. Rui An, who was already completely calm, wandered in front of the thief. The thief was already limp at this moment, squatting on the ground with a half-dead look, especially the cheeks that had just been beaten by Da Huang, were already swollen up.

Rui An squatted down and pulled off the hoodie from the thief's head, only then did he realize that the so-called thief was just a kid who looked 17 or 8 years old. When he thought that it was a kid who broke the law, Rui An didn't get angry , he pinched the child's cheek, and shouted: "What's wrong with learning, like others to be a thief? And attacking the police? Are you brave?"

Ignoring the pain on his cheek, the thief's eyes were full of tears: "I, I don't dare anymore, please let me go, I am also a first-time offender, and I will never dare again."

"First offender?" Rui An threw away his hand and smiled dismissively, his pupils narrowed like a villain, "If you can say the word 'first offender', I don't think you are a first offender, huh?"

"Brother, really, I was really forced, I really dare not, please let me go, I really don't want to go to jail, please!"

"Son." Rui An stood up, and the helplessness on his face looked real, "It's no use begging me, you have to beg the innocent victim who was robbed by you."

Ignoring the child's begging for mercy and crying, and decided to hand over the post-education to the police station, Rui An then sat down on the rest chair, "What the hell, don't let a nearly 30-year-old uncle run with all his might! Almost gone."

After complaining, Rui An took off his coat, took off his hat, and roughly wiped his forehead with his sleeve. He was about to die of heat. Even in the specific training once a week, he didn't sweat so much, probably due to his age. , I can't stand such a toss.

"I didn't expect you to run so fast."

The man next to him suddenly said something like a compliment, and Rui An's nose turned up in an instant, Lao Gao completely forgot who helped him chase the prisoner when he was exhausted: "When I was in high school, I was a sprinter for the school team. It is estimated that no one can break my record right now."

Amber eyes stared at Rui An up and down, and asked: "Short-legged world?"

"I don't have time to joke with you right now." Rui An let Rhubarb go, closed his eyes and ears, and waited for the police car to pick him up.

Rui An's intuition is still keen, the thief is really only 17 years old, and it's not the first time he was arrested at the police station, but the memory of his arrest this time is too deep, it is estimated that the tall man in a dark red suit It will leave him with a lot of psychological shadow.

Rui An originally wanted the man to come to the bureau with him, at least to treat the wound, but who knew that the man went home straight away, so Rui An had no choice but to give up, thinking that today is really tiring.

Finally, it was eight o'clock in the morning to change shifts. Rui An only wanted to go home, take a hot bath, have breakfast, and then sleep in the dark. Rui An opened the door, and a smell of fried rice wafted over.

"Ah, so happy."

Rui An took off his coat while expressing his reflections. After get off work, he unloaded his equipment in the brigade without changing his police uniform. He thought about putting it back on and washing it. Unexpectedly, after such a long time, he was still a little sweaty.

Not caring so much anymore, Rui An washed his hands casually, and started to swallow the fried rice made by the man indiscriminately. I don't know why, I ate so much in the middle of the night, but now I am still very hungry, probably because I ran too much and consumed it Gone.

"Patrol, that's it. Every day because of some big things, I run around here and there, and some people even call the police when their dogs are lost. I really don't know how idle we patrols are. Be tough, people say you You can't deserve this police uniform, please be softer, people say you're a softie, what a ghost." After eating and drinking enough, Rui An lazily complained while drinking hot tea.

It is rare for those who are still eating to pick up the words: "Then why do you continue to work?"

"Why?" Rui An asked back, seeming to be thinking about it, and after a long time, holding the teacup, he said, "Probably because he thinks being a policeman is cool."

"..." It was such a meaningless answer, Rhubarb stopped answering and continued to eat.

For a long time, Rui An stared at the man's bandaged right hand, and asked, "Is your hand alright?"

"Well." The man has no time to take care of him right now.

There was a comfortable warmth from the teacup in his hand, and Rui An put his face on the table and muttered vaguely: "That's right, man, there are some scars or something, and it looks good. But thank you You, you, have done a great job...although..."

Rui An's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally stopped. The man who received the thanks didn't answer, and finally put down his chopsticks after eating. When he looked up, he saw someone lying on the table and fell asleep, and he still had that kind of face Sleeping on the side directly on the table, the squeezed and deformed face looks particularly ridiculous.

The room was quiet, blocking the noise outside. The man sat lazily on the chair, staring at the man's funny side face without moving. After a long time, the bandaged hand stretched out unconsciously. The side face of that person is a strange coincidence...

The hand stopped suddenly, a few centimeters away from Rui An's cheek, the amber eyes darkened, and the bandaged hand pushed Rui An's shoulder suddenly: "Hey! Don't sleep here, be careful of catching a cold. "

Rui An suddenly opened his eyes, bloodshot eyes protesting his master's lack of sleep, he glared at the man angrily, "Please let me sleep like this, just leave me alone! It's usually nothing to do with me of!"

Probably complained with the last strength, then Rui An swayed to the bedroom step by step like a doll on a string, closed the door and threw herself on the bed, without changing clothes or taking a bath, just fell asleep like this.
