Chapter 386 I Want to Be a Witness

The old man was startled at first, but experience prevailed, and he quickly regained his composure, holding the phone and wallet in his hand and saying, "Big Brother, everyone, these things are absolutely not stolen by me.

The thief must have been cornered by us and ended up putting the stolen goods into my pocket. The purpose was to frame me because I just ruined his business."

This old man looked refined and very approachable. After he finished speaking, many people immediately agreed with him.

At this moment, the cripple also came to his senses and said, "Old man, I believe you. The things were definitely not stolen by you, otherwise, you wouldn't have come up with this idea."

"I guess so too. This old man doesn't look like a thief at all. Otherwise, why would he call himself after stealing something?"

"Damn thief, actually playing the blame game…"

"But here's the problem, now that the items were found on the old man, who exactly is the thief?"

As the situation progressed, the biggest problem was that the thief still hadn't been found. Who exactly stole the wallet and phone?

"Alright, everyone, quiet down."

It was Xiao Ping Tou, who had been silent on the side, who spoke. He pulled out a small red notebook from his pocket and said, "Everyone, I am a member of the Jiangnan City Anti-Pickpocketing Squad.

Recently, people on this bus have often lost things. We received a report, so we specially came here today with the aim of bringing the thief to justice."

"So there are anti-pickpocketing squad members on the bus. That makes things easier. We will definitely catch that thief."

After Xiao Ping Tou revealed his identity, he immediately gained everyone's respect and approval.

He continued, "Actually, I saw everything clearly just now. This old man was indeed wronged. He did not steal anything, but was framed."

Someone asked, "Big Brother, do you know who the thief is?"

Xiao Ping Tou said confidently, "Of course I know. Everything is under my control."

Ye Bufan shook his head slightly. These people were quite well-prepared. One plan failed, and another arose. It seemed this girl would still be in trouble.

"Then who is he? Quickly drag him out, let's see if I beat him to death…"

"Yes, this thief is too hateful. Not only did he steal from a disabled person, but he also framed such a good old man…"

"Drag him out, drag him out, let us see what the thief looks like…"

Amidst everyone's anger, Xiao Ping Tou waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet, then raised his hand and pointed at the girl in white: "The thief is her!"

"Ah?"

There was an uproar in the carriage. No one expected that the thief would be this beautiful girl.

"Big Brother, are you mistaken? Is it really her?"

"Of course not. I have been observing in secret all along. Even when I closed my eyes just now, I was secretly watching. It was she who put the wallet and phone into the old man's pocket."

Xiao Ping Tou said this, pulled out a pair of handcuffs from his pocket, and said righteously, "Justice may be late, but it is never absent. You are arrested!"

After speaking, he suddenly grabbed the girl's wrist and snapped the handcuffs on.

"Oh my goodness, I really didn't expect that such a beautiful girl would be a thief."

"Appearances can be deceiving. She's so pretty, yet she steals things. What's wrong with doing something else? Even selling herself would be ten times better than being a thief…"

"She looks so young, like a college student, yet she's doing such immoral things."

Everyone detested thieves. If the girl hadn't been pretty, they probably would have swarmed her and given her a good beating.

The cripple even cried out indignantly, "You Little girl, you were just pretending to be a good person with me. You're so good-looking, yet your heart is so dark! You even stole my son's tuition!"

The girl was bewildered by everything that happened so suddenly. It wasn't until she was handcuffed that she came to her senses, crying out in panic, "Big Brother, you're mistaken, I'm not a thief!

I really didn't steal anything from this Big Brother, nor did I frame this old man."

"Sophistry is useless. Come with me to the police station for investigation. What's real can't be fake, and what's fake can't be real. The law will give you a fair punishment."

After Xiao Ping Tou finished speaking, he pulled out a walkie-talkie from his pocket: "Captain… Captain, I caught a female pickpocket on bus number 13. Please drive the car over…"

Soon after he put down the walkie-talkie, a van drove up in front of the bus.

Xiao Ping Tou said to the driver, "Please open the door. We need to take her back for further investigation."

The driver naturally didn't hesitate and opened the door directly. The girl

The child cried out anxiously, "Big Brother, it's really not me. I really didn't steal anything. Don't wrong good people!"

"Come back with us first. We will clarify the matter. We will not wrong a good person, but we will never let a bad person go either."

Xiao Ping Tou said to the cripple and the old man, "You two also come with me and cooperate with the investigation there."

"Okay, thank you, comrade, for clearing my name."

The old man was full of gratitude. After speaking, he got off the bus with the cripple and got into the van first. The girl had no choice but to follow them off the bus, hoping to clarify things there.

Just as Xiao Ping Tou was about to get off the bus, someone behind him called out, "Wait a moment, I'll go with you too. I want to be a witness."

The speaker was naturally Ye Bufan. It was clear that these people were not anti-pickpocketing squad members, and the girl's fate, being taken away by them with such elaborate schemes, was easily imaginable.

In this situation, he naturally couldn't stand by and do nothing.

Xiao Ping Tou turned to look at him, revealing a kind smile: "Little brother, our evidence is already sufficient. This old gentleman and the victim are both witnesses, so there's no need to trouble you to make another trip."

Ye Bufan said, "I want to testify for that girl. I saw clearly just now that she never stole anything."

Xiao Ping Tou frowned. Deep down, he didn't want to take this person with him. Although such a delicate young man was nothing, he didn't want to invite unnecessary trouble.

Ye Bufan said, "Big Brother, you wouldn't be trying to prevent me from testifying, would you?"

"How could that be? The law has always been fair. Since you are willing to be a witness, then come with us."

After Xiao Ping Tou finished speaking, he took Ye Bufan into the van.

The car door closed, and the van immediately drove forward.

"What's going on? Why doesn't the anti-pickpocketing squad's car have a police light?"

"Who knows? Maybe they're using a civilian vehicle for convenience in handling cases…"

"But the direction they're going isn't right either. It's clearly not the direction of the anti-pickpocketing squad…"

"Who knows? Maybe they still have other team members to pick up…"

The people on the bus discussed for a while, but no one paid much attention. The bus driver started the engine and slowly drove forward again.
