Chapter 1043 Men in Uniform

The gang leader was stunned for a moment before realizing what was going on.

These men were there to apprehend them.

"Run!" He yelled, and all the hooligans scattered in all directions in an attempt to disperse the police force.

They didn't expect the police officers to be so determined to catch them that they had officers surrounding them.

Right now, they had no way of escaping.

"You..." The gang leader repeated the same word several times while looking at the police officers but said nothing else.

The police team's captain was the first to respond, "Heh heh!"

"Someone reported that you're planning to cause trouble, so we're here to arrest you per the law."

These hooligans had previously been to the police station and knew what it was like inside, so they were adamant about not being arrested.

None of them wanted to lose their freedom.

They immediately began begging, "Officer, we were just passing by and weren't causing any trouble. Besides, there's nothing here, so how could we possibly do anything?" "It's all just a misunderstanding!"

These hooligans continued to blabber as they played along.

"We'll get out of here and not bother anyone."

Hearing them, the officer laughed and asked, "What's in your hands?"

They immediately threw whatever they had in their hands out of fear as soon as they heard the question.

"W-we picked those up."

"That's right! These are just things that we found."

They spoke nervously.

Hearing them, the cop was amused by their nonsense.

He asked, "Oh? Where did you get them?"

"Right around here. We were just out for a walk when we noticed these items and decided to take them."

"Well, you're lucky. You have one each for yourself. What do you plan to do with what you picked up?"

Since the police station had always prioritized reliable evidence when making arrests, they had to be sure that they were making the right choice.

One of the hooligans, thinking he was clever, responded, "We're going to sell them."

The other one thought it sounded right and chimed in, "Yes, we're going to sell these."

"You're so strapped for cash that you've resorted to this?" The cop spoke calmly.

They thought the cops believed them and nodded quickly. "We have no choice but to pick up junk to survive."

"Hmph." The cop snorted. "Are you sure you weren't planning to vandalize and loot?"

Given that the cops dared to say that aloud, they must have had supporting evidence.

The hooligans were frightened by his words and quickly denied it.

"That's impossible! We're all law-abiding citizens."

"Oh, so you're saying we're falsely accusing you?" The police officer suddenly dropped his smile and became serious.

"We wouldn't dare. We just wanted to say that this is all a misunderstanding."

These hooligans were very good at reading the room, especially with so many police officers present this time. They would lose no matter how hard they fought. As a result, they were forced to plead for forgiveness. If they were apprehended, they would not be released for at least ten days, if not two weeks.

The cops didn't want to waste any more time talking to them. So, one officer took out his phone, dialed a number, and said, "Let's see whose number is this." Coincidentally, the gang leader's phone rang.

It was difficult to pretend not to hear the ringtone because the scene was too quiet and the ringtone was too loud.

The gang leader hid his phone, not wanting to be found out.

"Alright, you can stop denying now." The officer hung up the phone, and the ringtone stopped.

"First, you should turn in everything you picked up. Second, the person who reported you has concrete evidence against you, so you must come with us."

"We..." The hooligans wanted to fight on, but they were interrupted.

"If you have something to say, say it at the station.
