His Acting Was So Good As a Ruthless Criminal, Drawing the Attention of Police Officers Across the Internet

42: We didn’t get the attention we deserved; it turns out our older brother is of a higher rank than us.Lin Pei kindly helped introduce them.

“This is Officer Xiao Chen, surname Chen.”

Little Fatty slapped his own forehead.

Holy crap, he’s also surnamed Chen.

Those words I said earlier weren’t very precise, were they?

Officer Chen turned to look at Lin Pei, “So, this really isn’t your house?”

Little Fatty shook his head, “It wasn’t before...”

“But now, our home is Big Brother’s home. From now on, this place belongs to Big Brother.”

Lin Pei pursed his lips; someone had beaten him to the answer.

Officer Chen asked Lin Pei again.

“You really didn’t participate in any of their business?”

Before Lin Pei could answer, Little Fatty clicked his tongue again.

“Officer Xiao Chen, no matter how many times you ask, if my Big Brother didn’t participate, then he didn’t participate.”

These words spoke directly to Lin Pei’s heart.

“Anyway, he didn’t participate in our affairs. As for anything else, we wouldn’t know.”

??

Lin Pei’s heart went numb.

My brother, please stop talking.

One sentence was enough.

Little Fatty clearly didn’t receive his signal.

“With my Big Brother’s level of skill, he is destined to do great things.”

“The Dragon Country National Museum, the Louvre—there’s nothing he can’t steal from.”

“I dare say, even the most badass security system couldn’t stop him...”

Little Fatty didn’t continue.

Because Lin Pei shot him a glare.

He saw killing intent in Lin Pei’s eyes, which almost made him shudder.

No kidding, Big Brother is actually quite majestic.

Xu Feng called out at that moment.

“Xiao Chen, stop questioning them here. Bring them all back to the station.”

“And stop making things difficult for Lin Pei.”

“The Forensics Department has already compared the fingerprints and hair collected in this room; none of them belong to Lin Pei.”

“Since the painting has been recovered and the thieves have been caught, we should let him go home.”

Suspicion still lingered in Officer Chen’s eyes.

He still felt that if those locks in the house weren’t his own, there was no way he could open them like Lin Pei did.

Lin Pei must have had the passcodes or something like a fingerprint.

And these few thieves were just his underlings, acting along with him!

But he had no evidence right now.

He could only listen to his master and return to the station first.

A few minutes later, the police put the criminals in the car and headed back the way they came.

As a group of International Master Thieves that had existed in legends for years, the three of them felt that their arrest would surely shake the entire police station.

At this moment, every officer in the station must be waiting with bated breath, eagerly anticipating their arrival.

After all, as ’International Number Ones,’ they figured no one would want to miss a chance to see their true faces.

And as people the police had repeatedly failed to arrest, surely everyone held a deep sense of awe for them.

The car stopped at the station entrance, and several Criminal Police Officers led the ’Not True, Good, and Beautiful’ trio out.

The three of them stood tall and straight, the background music of ’A Bold Walk Through Life’ seemingly playing in their hearts.

Freedom can be lost, but style must be maintained.

To those who have waited so long to catch a glimpse of the legends—the legends have walked in themselves... wait.

Why is it so quiet?

The group entered the door and saw the empty front courtyard; their shoulders slumped instantly.

Where is everyone?

The station shouldn’t be closed yet at this hour, right?

In their daze, they finally saw two police officers coming out from inside.

The trio straightened their backs again.

However, those two officers acted as if they didn’t exist, only greeting their colleagues before walking right past!

What’s the meaning of this?

They are International Master Thieves; is their rank not high enough?

The officer escorting them chuckled.

“Yo, look at those postures, those expressions. Are you actually proud of being arrested?”

They heard the two Criminal Police Officers from just now suddenly gasp behind them, their tone full of pleasant surprise.

“Lin Pei, you’re back?”

“Impressive! Last time it was throwing a Flying Dagger barehanded, this time it’s opening a safe barehanded?”

“Awesome. Why don’t you just come work at the station?”

“Captain Xu has wanted you to join for a long time, right Captain?”

Hearing this, the trio understood.

It wasn’t that their rank wasn’t high enough; it was that their new Big Brother Lin Pei’s rank was even higher.

Before long, Officer Xiao Chen led them to the door of the interrogation room.

The trio felt that this should finally be their home turf.

Even if their rank wasn’t high enough, they had committed plenty of crimes.

Over the years, they had stolen almost every day, working year-round without rest.

The items involved were both domestic and international, too many to count.

The value was so immense they couldn’t even calculate it themselves.

If they were really interrogated, it would probably take ten days to half a month.

In this interrogation room before them, they were destined to review those glorious days once more.

And then shock everyone!

They figured this Officer Xiao Chen couldn’t wait to personally interrogate them either.

“Wait a moment.”

Officer Chen called out.

The trio’s footsteps stopped, and then they watched helplessly as Officer Xiao Chen caught up to their new Big Brother Lin Pei ahead of them.

“Lin Pei, you come with me!”

??

The three of them stood at the interrogation room door like they were in a time-out, momentarily confused.

Well then, as expected of their new Big Brother.

Could it be that he has even more cases on him than they do?

...Meanwhile, Officer Chen led Lin Pei toward the Evidence Room.

The Female Reporter sensed something unusual and followed along.

Arriving at the Evidence Room door, Officer Chen glanced at Lin Pei.

“Lin Pei, open the door!”

Lin Pei looked at the electronic lock on the door, then looked around.

This was the police station; was it appropriate for him to open this door?

Wouldn’t it be better to just enter the passcode?

In the end, this Officer Xiao Chen still didn’t trust him.

He kept thinking that the only reason Lin Pei could open the thieves’ door was because it was his own home.

Fine, why not prove it to him?

The Female Reporter hurried over at this time as well.

With her phone hanging at her chest, she had forgotten that her livestream was still on.

The stream was quite lively.

“Beautiful Reporter, you forgot to turn off the stream! And why are you running? I’m about to get motion sickness from the shaking!”

“Oh oh, it’s finally stopped shaking.”

“Are we even allowed to see inside the police station?”

“Better turn it off quickly. If you leak case details or something, won’t you get disciplined?”

“Don’t turn it off! I think I see Teacher Lin Pei. What’s he doing?”

Soon, everyone understood the scene before them.

“It seems this Officer Xiao Chen is making him open the Evidence Room door barehanded.”

“This officer still doesn’t believe him. If Lin Pei can’t open this door, wouldn’t that indirectly prove he’s actually in cahoots with those thieves?”

“What kind of logic is that? I don’t get it.”

“The logic is: if he can open a door as complex as the thieves’ house, this one should be no problem. If he can’t open this door, it means he couldn’t actually open the thieves’ door barehanded either—he just knew the passcode.”

“Got it, thanks to the person above.”

“To be honest, I think Officer Xiao Chen’s suspicion makes sense. After all, the doors Brother Lin has been opening were all at the thieves’ house.”

“Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.”

“...”

When the Female Reporter turned her head again, she was startled. At some point, a circle of colleagues had gathered in the hallway.

The various police officers also quickly realized Officer Chen’s intention.

“Xiao Chen, you’re really something. You could get disciplined for playing like this.”

“With that stubborn streak of his, do you think he’s afraid of being disciplined?”

“True, when he hits a wall, eight donkeys couldn’t pull him back.”

“Lin Pei, opening this should be very easy for you, right?”

“Exactly, open it.”

“Tsk, why isn’t he moving? He couldn’t really be unable to open it, could he?”

“...”
