Chapter 445 Catching the Thief
Chapter 445 Catching the Thief
In the shop area of the Jingfeng ship, amid the hustle and bustle, a figure suddenly rushed out.
I saw the man holding a backpack tightly in his hand, looking panicked, and running hurriedly towards a shop.
Behind that man, there were several people following closely. They looked anxious and were shouting as they chased.
Obviously, the person running in front is suspected to be a thief.
The crowd was startled by this sudden scene. They all looked sideways, their eyes closely following the chaotic scene, wondering what would happen next.
The lively atmosphere in the shopping area was instantly broken, and a tense atmosphere filled the air.
The thief dodged left and right in the crowd, trying to shake off his pursuers.
His face was filled with panic and fear, with beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.
When the shop owners and customers saw this scene, they all opened their mouths in surprise.
Some shop owners hurriedly protected their merchandise, fearing that they would be affected by the chaos.
Some brave customers tried to stop the fleeing man, but he was extremely fast and nimbly avoided their blockage.
The people chasing him shouted as they ran, "Catch him! Don't let him run away!" Their voices echoed in the shopping area, attracting more people's attention.
Some enthusiastic passers-by also joined the chase, and they worked together to try to bring the thief to justice.
In his panic, the thief ran into a narrow passage, thinking he could escape the pursuit.
However, the end of the passage is a dead end.
He looked at the wall in front of him in despair, not knowing what to do.
Looking at the crowd gradually approaching, he glanced at the wall and prepared to climb over it to escape. His eyes were full of fear and despair, like a trapped beast with no way out.
Just as he was about to climb to the top of the wall, suddenly, an nimble figure rushed over from the crowd like lightning.
The figure moved at an extremely fast speed, creating a breeze, and instantly came to the side of the thief.
Then, he kicked the thief to the ground with great force and precision.
The thief fell heavily to the ground and let out a painful groan.
Before he could react, the figure quickly stepped forward with clean and neat movements.
He used his knee to press against the man's lower back, with such powerful force that the thief could not move. He then decisively pried his hands behind his back and firmly controlled the thief.
"I, the judge of the Ten Kings Court, hereby announce that you will be arrested and brought to justice. Do you have any objection?" A majestic voice sounded, full of unquestionable momentum.
There was a commotion in the crowd, and everyone's attention was drawn to the voice.
Lin Yu and Topa looked at the judge in the crowd and were surprised to find that she was Xue Yi.
Xue Yi's expression was stern. She stared at the thief closely and asked again, "Do you plead guilty?"
The thief lay on the ground, his face full of regret, and nodded with a slight tremor.
After Xue Yi saw his actions, she stood up and said to the crowd around her, "The Ten Kings Division will definitely uphold justice and make sure those who violate the law receive the punishment they deserve."
The crowd burst into warm applause and cheers, and everyone praised Xue Yi for her courage and fairness.
Afterwards, Xue Yi prepared to take the thief away from the shopping area.
After walking a few steps, Xue Yi's sharp eyes suddenly saw Lin Yu in the bustling crowd, like an accurate scanner.
Her eyes lit up slightly, as if she had found a familiar comfort in this chaotic scene.
Noticing Xue Yi's gaze, Lin Yu immediately responded politely.
He raised his hand slightly and waved gently to Xue Yi with a friendly smile on his face.
His movements were natural and smooth, as if he was greeting an old friend whom he had not seen for a long time.
Yes, we meet again after a long separation.
A reunion after experiencing death.
Seeing this, Xue Yi nodded slightly.
Her movements were concise, expressing her response to Lin Yu while retaining the dignity of a judge of the Ten Kings Division.
She looked at the thief beside her, a hint of severity flashing in her eyes.
The thief felt her gaze and couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Then, Xue Yi turned her gaze to Lin Yu again, with a hint of thought in her eyes.
She seemed to be thinking about something, and after a moment, she made a decision.
Xue Yi escorted the thief and walked towards Lin Yu resolutely.
Every step she took was filled with determination.
As she approached, the people around her cast curious glances at her, wondering why this majestic judge was walking towards Lin Yu.
Lin Yu watched Xue Yi's every move, his heart full of doubts.
I don't know why Xue Yi is walking towards him.
Xue Yi came to Lin Yu and said, "I didn't expect to meet you here."
Lin Yu responded with a smile, "It's indeed a coincidence, Judge Snow, you have once again demonstrated your skills."
Xue Yi's lips slightly raised stiffly, revealing a barely perceptible smile, "This is my duty."
She glanced at the dejected thief beside her, and said to Lin Yu, "This man has committed the crime of theft. I need to take him back to the Ten Kings Division for interrogation."
Lin Yu nodded to show his understanding.
Xue Yi paused for a moment, then continued, "I hope you can also uphold justice during your journey and stand up bravely when you encounter injustice."
Lin Yu solemnly promised, "We will."
"Who is this person?" Xue Yi looked at Topa beside her with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.
Her eyes moved up and down Topa, as if trying to read something from her appearance.
Seeing this, Lin Yu hurriedly introduced, "Judge Snow, this is Topa, my companion. We just happened to meet on the Jingfeng ship. We were on this Jingfeng ship together and happened to see the heroic scene of you catching the thief just now."
Xue Yi nodded slightly and said to Topa, "Hello, Miss Topa, it's nice to meet you."
Topa raised his head and looked at Xue Yi. "Hello, Judge Xue Yi. I have heard of you for a long time. I admire your courage and fairness."
"It's my duty, not worth mentioning."
“While this individual’s actions are abhorrent, they also serve as a reminder that we cannot neglect the maintenance of law and order.
"Very good. I hope that next time we meet, you can bring more stories about other planets." After saying that, she turned around and left with the thief. Her determined back gradually disappeared in the crowd.
After seeing Xue Yi leave, the originally warm smile on Lin Yu's face instantly receded like a tide, replaced by deep doubts.
He stared blankly in the direction where Xue Yi disappeared, his eyes filled with complicated emotions.
Lin Yu never expected that Xue Yi would be "resurrected" so quickly. This was completely beyond his expectations.
In his plan, he should have had enough time to carefully repair Snowy's body and fully prepare for her "rebirth".
However, the reality unfolded so dramatically before him that he was caught off guard.
