Dongfang Linglong, a captain of a squad in the Yan Cheng City Criminal Police Team, happened to be on a mission nearby with her colleagues when she received the alarm. She immediately led her team to wait for the bus at the next station. Upon boarding the bus, she immediately noticed that three people were severely injured.

Clearly, in the eyes of Dongfang Linglong and her two colleagues, ordinary civilians were not this vicious. Therefore, the ones who injured these three must have been thieves who were "angered and ashamed" when discovered. Moreover, next to the injured people, there was a young woman crying and pointing out the culprit.

Although she was puzzled as to why the thief didn't flee after injuring people, with the young woman's testimony and her preconceived notions, Dongfang Linglong immediately identified Lü Chong as the thief and prepared to have her colleagues take this "thief" back to the station. However, this only provoked the thief's contempt and curses.

If it weren't for the public setting, Dongfang Linglong would have wanted to beat the thief up immediately to maintain the police's image. But at this moment, Dongfang Linglong was also enraged. She had a cold expression and shouted at her two colleagues, "Zhao Wuyang, Yang Shaojun, take him away!"

The two male police officers immediately moved to either side of Lü Chong.

Lü Chong, carrying a laptop bag, looked at the approaching police officers with cold eyes, then shifted his gaze to Dongfang Linglong and mocked, "Tsk, tsk, you're a captain of a squad in the criminal police? With your level of skill and intelligence, I doubt you even deserve this position."

What?

Dongfang Linglong was so angry that she felt like she was about to explode. Her beautiful eyes widened, and she glared at Lü Chong with fury. Her teeth clenched so hard that they made a grinding sound. Lü Chong's words almost completely ignited her anger.

At this moment, Dongfang Linglong's chest heaved violently, and her fists were tightly clenched. Her fists turned blue from the force.

"What? I'm right, aren't I?" Lü Chong said calmly. Although she was a stunning beauty, in Lü Chong's eyes, this police officer was unable to distinguish right from wrong and had no discernment, just a pretty face. For a female police officer to become a squad captain in her early twenties, there must be something fishy.

"Improper means? You're insulting our captain. Let me tell you, our captain obtained her master's degree from the Central Police Academy at the age of twenty. She is even underqualified for her position as a squad captain," Zhao Wuyang, the young male police officer, said angrily, glaring at Lü Chong.

Obtained a master's degree from the Central Police Academy at the age of twenty?

Lü Chong was slightly stunned, then shook his head, clearly disbelieving. With such poor judgment, it would be hard to graduate from the Central Police Academy, let alone obtain a master's degree. Unless she had a strong background! In that case, her master's degree might also be obtained through improper means.

Although Lü Chong didn't speak, his shaking head and disbelieving expression were noticed by Dongfang Linglong.

At this moment, Dongfang Linglong truly felt belittled. A deep sense of indignation filled her chest, making it hard for her to breathe. Dongfang Linglong had never hated anyone as much as she did now!

Seeing the conflict between Lü Chong and the police, the young woman became excited and quickly said, "Comrades, you see, this thief is still so arrogant. You can imagine how arrogant he was before. Not only did he steal, but he also attacked people when discovered. This is outright robbery, and you must not let him go..."

"Shut up!" Lü Chong turned to the young woman and coldly shouted. A chill flashed in his eyes.

After absorbing a thread of Lü Yue's true spirit and memories, Lü Chong's soul energy had surged. The chill in his eyes was so real that the young woman couldn't help but shiver and dared not speak again.

Seeing the young woman silenced, Lü Chong calmly said to Dongfang Linglong, "Alright, I don't care if your position was obtained through improper means. If you really can't see that these people are thieves, then I, an outsider, will teach you a thing or two."

What?

This person was actually going to teach the captain?

This kid was really infuriating!

Zhao Wuyang and Yang Shaojun were instantly enraged. They rushed to Lü Chong and reached out to grab his arms.

Lü Chong frowned, ready to act.

Having practiced traditional martial arts with his grandfather since childhood, he would never show deep respect to the police like ordinary people. If the other party dared to act, and he was in the right, he wouldn't mind teaching the police a lesson.

"Zhao Wuyang, Yang Shaojun, stop!" Dongfang Linglong suddenly called out to her two colleagues.

"Huh?" The two young police officers turned around in surprise, stopping their actions, looking doubtful.

Dongfang Linglong walked over, suppressing her anger towards Lü Chong, and said to her colleagues, "This kid is not the thief. Take these people back to the police car."

"What? The thief is not this kid but the ones on the ground?" Zhao Wuyang and Yang Shaojun were stunned, muttering in doubt.

They had always thought the thief was Lü Chong, but now Dongfang Linglong believed the others were the thieves. Although they were skeptical, they still prepared to handcuff the young woman and the injured people.

The young woman, seeing the police not arresting Lü Chong but coming for her, panicked and screamed, "I... I'm not a thief, don't arrest me. We... we just wanted to get back at this kid..."

Hearing the young woman admit their intentions, Zhao Wuyang and Yang Shaojun immediately understood that these were the members of the theft gang. They then restrained her.

After that, Dongfang Linglong, Zhao Wuyang, and Yang Shaojun questioned the people on the bus and gained a better understanding of the situation. Dongfang Linglong then had Zhao Wuyang and Yang Shaojun take these people off the bus...

Watching her colleagues take the thieves to the police car, Dongfang Linglong nodded in satisfaction, then looked deeply at Lü Chong and said, "Although they are thieves, you severely injured them, which is excessive. Come with me to the police station!"

"Shouldn't I be allowed to defend myself if they attacked me first?" Lü Chong looked at Dongfang Linglong with disdain and asked coldly.

"You can defend yourself, but you have overreacted. So, come with me to the police station..." Dongfang Linglong said in a professional tone.

In fact, with her keen eyes, she had already seen that the thieves only suffered superficial injuries. Even the most severely injured one only had a dislocated arm. However, because she had been repeatedly provoked by Lü Chong, she now had the intention of scaring him and giving him a lesson.

Lü Chong looked at Dongfang Linglong seriously for a long time before saying, "So eager to get me to the police station, are you planning to use your position for personal revenge?"

Caught off guard by Lü Chong's words, Dongfang Linglong almost jumped, feeling somewhat guilty and avoiding his eyes, but her mouth was firm, "Brat, do you think you're worthy of me using my position for personal revenge? Come with me..."

A smile appeared on Lü Chong's face, and he said calmly, "Alright, since you put it that way, I'll go with you to the police station."
