Chapter 466: Exposure

~8 min read 1,503 words

"..."

Looking at the eyes cast by his colleagues, the scarf woman felt embarrassed and nodded with a dark face.

"What he said is all true. This aspect is indeed my fault. It was me who didn't prepare well in advance, and only calculated according to the ingredient price reported by the field team, so I casually said a price of one silver wheel... But this person should also have a problem!"

After glaring at Li Ang who distracted her attention and let the rebels run away, the female police officer named Yisha took a deep breath and pointed at Li Ang with a serious face:

"In order not to delay the surveillance, after discovering the price was going to be high, I immediately gave a low price to stabilize him, but he not only kept secretly observing me, he even started observing the mission target's room!"

"I was just..."

"It can't be a casual look! And it can't be a coincidence!"

After interrupting Li Ang's words, the female police officer twisted her willow brows and questioned firmly:

"There are more than a hundred rooms in that building across the street, and there are thirty or forty that can be seen from the coffee stall. Why did you just stare at the target's window?"

"..."

"No... why are you still suspecting me?"

Seeing that the group of secret police cast suspicious eyes again, Li Ang could only say speechlessly:

"If I were really a rebel, I should have run away when you lowered the price blindly!

By the way, have you ever been to this kind of coffee stall? Excluding the coffee, the things you served me could sell to five people at other stalls, do you know?

"And yet, for all these things, you only asked for two copper wheels. You went out to set up a stall in the cold wind early this morning, and it's obvious you aren't counting on making money. If you aren't there to keep watch, could it be that you're there to provide heating for this street?"

"You... don't change the subject!"

Being teased by Li Ang's somewhat sharp sarcasm, the female police officer's expression became embarrassed, and she slapped the table and roared:

"What I'm asking is not how I was exposed, but why you kept staring at the target's window!"

"I stared at that side because you stared at that side. As for why I looked at your target..."

After briefly explaining his judgment process, Li Ang said helplessly:

"Although I felt you were wrong, I really didn't expect myself to be so unlucky that I would run into secret police catching people while buying coffee on the way to work.

Plus, I am also from the Police Department, considered half a police officer, so I followed your gaze and glanced twice. Who knew you would react so strongly, directly throwing away the target and starting to interrogate me?"

"..."

After looking at the female police officer who was speechless, Li Ang, who was uncomfortable being handcuffed, couldn't help but urge:

"Sigh... you guys think too much, I am really one of my own! By the way, it's almost noon, have you verified the certificate yet?"

"You... don't think this is over, you still have..."

"That's enough, Yisha!"

After stopping the female police officer who still wanted to say something, the scarred strong man who poked his head out to scold earlier extinguished his cigarette, pointed at Li Ang, and said expressionlessly:

"Take off his handcuffs."

The female police officer was stunned for a moment, then questioned:

"But the certificate is still..."

"The file department hasn't sent the results over yet, but his certificate has all the signatures from all levels, rebels shouldn't be able to do it so meticulously, so as long as we rule out the possibility of him being an insider, we should let him go."

"Yes..."

After biting her lip unwillingly, the female police officer hung her head and walked over to unlock Li Ang's handcuffs.

Although she is quite an outstanding beauty, Li Ang had been tossing and turning since eating early in the morning, and had been sitting on the cold iron chair in the interrogation room for half a day, and he had already accumulated a lot of fire in his heart.

After loosening his wrists, which had been rubbed red, and looking at the female police officer's expression—which remained somewhat unwilling and seemed to want to interrogate him a while longer—Li Ang couldn't hold back his anger and retorted with a half-soft, half-hard jab:

"It's almost noon, right? Thank you for Miss Yisha's generosity. If the bread you gave this morning wasn't so filling, I'd be hungry now!"

"You!" Hearing Li Ang's sarcasm, the female police officer, who first lost the rebels and then lost a big face today, suddenly turned black, seemingly wanting to talk back, but finally endured it, bit her lip and lowered her head and endured it:

"Sorry, it's all my fault for misjudging, delaying your time, very sorry!"

Although her tone was very tight and this apology was not very sincere, considering that the other party belonged to the kingdom's special agency, Li Ang didn't entangle too much, but turned to look at the scarred strong man who poked his head out to scold earlier.

"Excuse me, can you return my certificate to me?"

"Of course."

Hearing Li Ang's request, the scarred strong man curled his mouth, revealing a smile that was enough to make children cry, and then got up to take the certificate from the table and handed it over, smiling:

"I have heard a little bit about your bureau, and our department occasionally encounters situations that need your bureau's help. I hope there will be opportunities to cooperate with you in the future."

"..."

Cooperate with me as a "Cleanup Worker"? Then it can only be encountering anomalies. Are you sure you want this opportunity?

"Easy to say, easy to say..."

Feeling a bit awkward from the other party's not very auspicious politeness, Li Ang mumbled two sentences and followed a secret police officer out of the interrogation room.

After the others left one after another, and only two people were left in the room, the female police officer who had been holding back for a long time let out a heavy breath, then gritted her teeth and questioned:

"Why didn't you let me continue to interrogate him?"

After raising his eyebrows covered by the knife scar, the scarred strong man asked back:

"Interrogate what?"

"Of course it's what happened four days ago!"

The female police officer said angrily:

"Four days ago, a masked man in black beat the editor-in-chief of the social edition of 【Daily News】 in a restaurant on Qinhua Street, and then took a car to the headquarters of Charle Department Store.

And this person was injured by gold wheels a few days ago and made it to the entertainment edition of the Sun Newspaper. I looked at the photos taken of him at the time, and the attire was exactly the same as that masked man on Qinhua Street!"

"Hmm, and then?"

"Then he interfered with the arrest of the rebels today, and has been trying to entangle me, letting the rebel who participated in the assassination of the princess run away!"

The female police officer said anxiously:

"If he hadn't appeared today, I could still think it was a coincidence, but now I can be sure that this person has a problem one hundred percent!"

"Yes, I also think he has a problem."

After nodding and recognizing the female police officer's judgment, the scarred strong man lit a cigarette again. On the face that was red from the sparks, those crisscrossing knife scars were like poisonous snakes wriggling.

Only to see him say slowly:

"Royalty and nobles are just a group of lice in the crotch. Once they suck blood and it hurts, they should be caught and pinched to death!"

After repeating the "masked man's" words, the scarred strong man smiled and said:

"After saying such amazing words, he actually dared to approach you with his real identity and cover the target's retreat this time. He is the boldest opponent I have ever seen!

Hehe, if it weren't for this time, I wouldn't have thought that the rebels had already mixed into the Police Department, and even joined that extremely dangerous Cleanup Bureau! This person is absolutely a big fish that is hard to imagine!"

"I seem to understand..."

After thinking about it, the female police officer frowned:

"So... the reason you didn't catch him is to let a long line catch a big fish? Lure out more rebels?"

"No."

After pressing out the cigarette in his hand again, the scarred strong man leaned back into the chair and said with a smile:

"You think too much, he is from that Cleanup Bureau, I just simply don't dare to catch him."
