Chapter 389: Why does he have to be so outstanding?”_1
Yang Dongxu was truly experiencing a mix of pain and pleasure right now.
What made him happy was the huge success of today’s arrest operation.
However, the painful reality was that the majority of that success was related to Tang Feng.
Apart from the criminals Ma Wu and Chen Mei, whom Tang Feng had personally caught, the other three were also nabbed by the officers in plainclothes under his guidance.
It was as if the guy really had a pair of eyes that could spot criminals in a second, able to differentiate them as if he had supernatural vision.
It was as though he had cheats enabled.
...
And now, news had come in again.
“Okay, I’ll be there right away.”
He replied to the walkie-talkie, then turned to Wang Ming with a wry smile, “What kind of unique technique do you think this guy has? How can he be so fast?”
Wang Ming could only shrug helplessly, “Who knows.”
Yang Dongxu shook his head and said nothing more, heading directly to find Tang Feng.
On his way there, he felt a tinge of anticipation.
From Tang Feng’s performance earlier, it seemed that he was uninterested in the small fry and left them all to his fellow brothers in the plainclothes unit.
He, on the other hand, preferred to catch the big fish.
In the two previous instances, he had already caught Ma Wu and Chen Mei, seasoned criminals who had been causing the Public Affairs Hall considerable headaches.
If he could catch another thief of Ma or Chen’s caliber this time, then today’s operation could definitely be called a huge success.
However, when he saw the person Tang Feng had caught this time, he knew he had been wrong. @@novelbin@@
How could this be called just a huge success? This was damn successful.
The guy wasn’t satisfied with catching habitual thieves like Ma Wu or Chen Mei; he had caught a real big fish.
“Wu Qishu?”
When he saw Wu Qishu’s old face, he thought he was seeing things.
This old coot had been a notorious big-time thief that had given the Public Affairs Hall a prolonged headache.
The amount involved in his cases had already exceeded thirty million.
The Public Affairs Hall had expended a great deal of effort in trying to apprehend him.
But every time, at the very last moment, he had managed to escape.
Yang Dongxu had even faced considerable criticism because of this man.
He could never have imagined that this big-time thief, who had rendered the Public Affairs Hall powerless, would fall into Tang Feng’s hands.
At this moment, Wu Qishu’s armpit was stained red with blood, and his complexion was growing paler.
Seeing Yang Dongxu, he didn’t speak, expressing his resignation to his fate through his demeanor.
Yang Dongxu turned his astonished gaze back to Tang Feng, “How… how did you catch him?”
“Luck, all luck,” Tang Feng repeated his earlier response.
Yang Dongxu’s cheeks twitched uncontrollably, and he felt like cursing.
What kind of damn luck was this?
Once might be luck, twice could also be chalked up to luck.
But now, he had caught three in a row, each with a bigger name than the last.
If he still believed it was luck, then he’d have to think his head had been kicked by a donkey.
Suppressing his shock, he forced a smile that he thought was kindly, “Tang, have you ever thought about becoming an honorable officer of the Public Affairs Hall? I could make arrangements to bring you on as a special consultant.”
If anyone from the Public Affairs Hall were here now, they would have been shocked speechless by his words.
Yang Dongxu was considered elite among elites back in the special forces, hence he was very selective, with few people able to catch his eye.
Yet now, he was taking the initiative to invite Tang Feng to join the Public Affairs Hall, indicating how highly he regarded him.
But Tang Feng shook his head without hesitation, “No, I won’t go.”
Yang Dongxu’s face stiffened, “Why… Why not? What’s wrong with being an officer?”
“The pay is too low, and there’s too much hassle,” Tang Feng provided an ample reason.
It wasn’t that he had an issue with the job itself, but there were too many restrictions.
He had undertaken a system task to earn 10 billion in a year.
If he became an officer, it would become difficult to accomplish many things.
“Think it over again, I’m serious.” Yang Dongxu wouldn’t give up so easily, having rarely encountered such a talented thief-catcher; he truly wanted to recruit him.
“Let’s talk about it later, Mr. Yang. I’ve given you the man, I need to continue catching thieves,” said Tang Feng, not wanting to dwell on the topic any longer, as he handed over Wu Qishu and walked away.
Yang Dongxu sighed helplessly, but he knew that he couldn’t force someone to embrace a different path, so he took the “big fish” Wu Qishu back to the temporary command post.
When Wang Ming saw Wu Qishu, he was also on the verge of dropping his jaw, “Oh my, is it possible? Tang Feng actually caught Wu Qishu?”
Yan Dongxu spread his hands helplessly, “Unexpected, right?”
Wang Ming stared at the crestfallen Wu Qishu and nodded slowly, “If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would never believe it. We’ve spent so much manpower and still couldn’t catch him, but today, Tang Feng did?”
“That’s why I say, this kid is a genius at catching thieves!” Yang Dongxu couldn’t help but feel emotional at the thought of Tang Feng.
“What? Mr. Yang, are you harboring thoughts of admiration? Could try to recruit him then,” Wang Ming suggested, noticing Yang Dongxu’s inclination.
“Heh, I’ve already thrown him an olive branch, but do you know how he responded?” Yang Dongxu said, agitated at the memory of Tang Feng’s reaction at that moment.
“How did he respond?” Wang Ming asked, curious.
“He said our job here pays too little and involves too much hassle, and he doesn’t want it,” Yang Dongxu replied gruffly.
Wang Ming paused, then suddenly burst into laughter, laughing so hard that tears came to his eyes.
Yang Dongxu glared at him, “What are you laughing at? What’s so funny?”
Wang Ming finally managed to stop laughing, “The situation itself isn’t funny, but because it’s you who got rejected, that makes it hilarious.”
“What’s so funny about me getting rejected? You’re just enjoying my misfortune,” Yang Dongxu was slightly angry and embarrassed.
“Who are you? You’re Yang Dongxu! You’re normally the one rejecting others; who would dare to reject you? Seeing you at a loss is rarer than the outcomes of this operation,” Wang Ming couldn’t help but tease his old friend.
Yang Dongxu was speechless for a moment,”This kid just doesn’t know what’s good for him. If he pushes me past my limit, I’ll have him tied up and brought here. Let’s see if he refuses then.”
Wang Ming laughed again, “Now I’m quite curious about this Tang Feng. He’s actually driven a dignified Public Affairs Hall captain to consider becoming a kidnapper.”
Yang Dongxu also laughed at that, “Truly, I’m about to go mad because of this guy. Why does he have to be so outstanding?”
What do you think?
