I'm arresting a fugitive, not messing around with you.

Zhou Cheng roughly scanned their crimes.

He quickly began to analyze them in his mind!

Li Suyuan's parents had already become wanted fugitives, which meant the evidence against them was already locked in. It was just that they had been hiding for years and hadn't been caught yet!

Therefore, there was no need to spend police force value to exchange for evidence!

Then there was Li Suyuan. Picking quarrels and provoking trouble referred to the car-smashing incident, and insulting a police officer was what just happened. The one thousand exchange value required should be for evidence of that earlier fraud case!

Zhou Cheng checked his current police force value.

He had gained one thousand from suppressing Zhou Mu and his mother. Although he had been dispatched several times over the past two days, they were all for mediating neighborhood disputes, yielding a total of only five hundred police force value.

Added together, it was only one thousand five hundred points.

But it was enough!

Next was Wang Lun. He hadn't expected this bespectacled high-profile lawyer to be a criminal too.

But it made sense. How could a lawyer close to Gu Beifan's Family be clean?

As for the male and Female Protagonists!

Gu Beifan went without saying; he was a natural-born villain.

Unfortunately, it would take a hundred thousand police force value to deal with him!

As for Zhang Yuanyuan, according to the plot, she hadn't discovered the situation with Gu Beifan's Family yet. It wouldn't be until the Late Stage, after Gu Beifan had completely bound her to him, that she would find out and be trapped!

At this point, besides having a broken brain, Zhang Yuanyuan hadn't committed too many illegal acts.

Things like small-scale theft... well, nobody's perfect.

Other than being able to threaten her at the right time with a line like 'You wouldn't want others to know about your shoplifting at the supermarket,' there wasn't much else.

But why did this still require ten thousand police force value?

This is way too high.

[Zhang Yuanyuan is the Female Protagonist of a short drama and possesses Luck; therefore, the required police force value is higher compared to ordinary people!]

As if sensing Zhou Cheng's confusion, the System directly spoke up to offer an explanation!

This explanation was reasonable, so Zhou Cheng didn't bother dwelling on it.

Zhou Cheng guessed that Zhang Yuanyuan's small-scale thefts must have happened before his Previous Self met her.

Because after they met, she was well-protected by his Previous Self! It would have been impossible for her to commit theft again!

The pity was that she was protected too well, making her think Zhou Cheng couldn't live without her.

It made her think Zhou Cheng's protection was something she could take for granted, and she even believed that Zhou Cheng's existence was what hindered her love with Gu Beifan!

Sigh!

It's that damn 'love' again.

Zhou Cheng seriously suspected that there was something wrong with the air in this world, as if the Creator had added some kind of love-brained gas!

Zhou Cheng didn't speak while viewing the Heavenly Eye.

This led Li Suyuan and the others to think that Zhou Cheng was truly intimidated by the threat of a complaint!

Li Suyuan's parents grew even bolder and shouted again:

“My daughter has suffered severe psychological trauma after your violent law enforcement. We are going to the hospital for a check-up right now!”

“You must compensate us!”

“Nonsense! We were enforcing the law normally! Your daughter broke the law first, and she resisted arrest and refused to cooperate. That's why Brother Zhou Cheng took action!”

Zhao Yier, who had been watching from the side, couldn't listen anymore. She walked over and stood in front of Zhou Cheng, unable to bear hearing someone wrong her Brother Zhou Cheng like that.

Li Suyuan's parents looked at the approaching Zhao Yier, narrowed their eyes, and then said overbearingly:

“What does a little slip of a girl like you know? Who said she didn't cooperate?”

“Our daughter has been well-behaved and sensible since she was a child. Why wouldn't she cooperate with the police? He must be using his public office for private gain. Seeing that his girlfriend wanted to break up, he took his anger out on my daughter. It's intentional retaliation!”

“That's right, intentional retaliation!”

“You're a cop too, so of course you're siding with him!”

The two of them chimed in one after another. Zhao Yier had only just joined the police station, and having been protected since childhood, she had never seen such a scene before.

She immediately felt a bit flustered.

Just as Zhou Cheng closed the System, he happened to hear their words.

He pulled Zhao Yier behind him and looked at Li Suyuan's parents with a grin.

“I used violent law enforcement?”

“That's right!” Li Suyuan's parents were a bit guilty in front of the police, but they were still feigning toughness!

“You want me to pay compensation?”

“Yes, we want you to pay!”

“How much? One million?” Zhou Cheng looked at them playfully.

“Well... at least two million! No, five million!!!” Li Suyuan's father wanted to say 'fine', but then he remembered that Zhou Cheng's Family was a major Family in Shanghai with plenty of money, so he immediately changed his tune!

“Fine, I have the money to give, but do you have the guts to take it!” Zhou Cheng said contemptuously.

Then he turned to Zhang Quan and Liu Xi and said:

“Old Zhang, Old Liu, arrest these two as well! I suspect they are wanted fugitives for fraud!”

After Zhou Cheng finished speaking, everyone present was stunned for a moment.

Zhang Quan and Liu Xi looked at Zhou Cheng in confusion.

Buddy, even though these two old fogies are provoking you, we law enforcement officers really can't just arrest people randomly!

“Just arrest them. If it's a mistake, I'll take responsibility!” Zhou Cheng said with certainty!

Hearing Zhou Cheng's words, Zhang Quan and the other officer felt at ease. They took out their handcuffs and quickly stepped forward.

Li Suyuan's parents, who had been incredibly smug just a moment ago, panicked immediately upon hearing Zhou Cheng's words!

They knew their own business best.

Once they were actually arrested, their status as wanted fugitives would definitely be discovered.

And this was a police station; they couldn't even run if they wanted to!

At the thought of this, they hurriedly looked at Zhang Yuanyuan.

“Zhang Yuanyuan! We told you we shouldn't come, but you insisted.”

“What do we do now? Your boyfriend not only arrested our daughter, but now he wants to arrest us too!”

“You didn't set us up on purpose, did you!”

Li Suyuan's parents said anxiously.

They had been hiding perfectly well, but it was Zhang Yuanyuan who contacted them and persuaded them to come.

She also said they could get a lot of compensation, which was why they came!

And this was the result?

They were beginning to suspect if this policeman and Zhang Yuanyuan had conspired to set a trap to lure them into the net!

Zhang Yuanyuan's gaze withdrew from Zhao Yier!

When Zhao Yier stood up to block for Zhou Cheng just now, her heart had skipped a beat.

She could feel the love for Zhou Cheng in Zhao Yier's eyes!

Living this life again, she had decided she would only use Zhou Cheng this time.

She had decided that she must be with Gu Beifan in this life!

She had decided that no one could stop her from pursuing her true love!

But now, seeing another woman by Zhou Cheng's side, a surge of jealousy uncontrollably welled up in her heart.

She felt as if someone was about to take away her most important possession.

The words of Li Suyuan's parents rang in her head like a glass bottle shattering!

She hurriedly snapped out of her thoughts!

Then she looked at Zhou Cheng with a cold face!

“Enough! Zhou Cheng! How much longer are you going to keep messing around!”

“Yes, I have indeed been closer to Beifan lately and neglected your feelings, but I didn't tell you we were breaking up!”

“It was one thing for you to arrest Yuanyuan a couple of days ago, but now you actually want to arrest Yuanyuan's parents! Don't you know that Yuanyuan is my Best Friend, and her parents are my parents?”

“As long as you stop pursuing the matter of Yuanyuan insulting you, pay back the compensation Beifan advanced, and give Yuanyuan's parents a sum of money, I can continue to be with you.”

“At most, I'll apologize to you again.”

Zhou Cheng: Uh...

I'm catching wanted fugitives, who's messing around with you?

And how can you be so thick-skinned!
