Chapter 525 Retribution, This is all retribution.

"Captain Li, everyone's here."

Inside the train police station, the veteran officer counted the number of people and said...

"This is only what's on the surface; there should be more."

That's all he saw with his own eyes, but that doesn't mean there weren't other thieves hiding on the train.

"That woman, the one in white, the one with short hair... she must be a thief too... if she is... wait... I feel like I've seen that middle-aged man somewhere before..."

Captain Li frowned and thought about it carefully.

"Then let's keep catching them."

Captain Li nodded. "Arrest him, but that kid... he's never actually made a move..."

The image of Feng Yuxiu flashed through his mind; he hadn't seen Feng Yuxiu steal anything from beginning to end.

But he had a more cunning air about him than a thief.

"You guys find the person first. I have something to do. We can't let good people suffer innocent losses while bad people get away with it."

Captain Li stood up, touched his chest, and walked out.

Inside the dining car.

Ye Zi had somehow produced a police uniform and was looking at herself in the mirror.

Uncle Li stood behind, admiringly saying, "Not bad, not bad at all. You really do have a unique style in this. It just doesn't look right."

"Look at what you're saying. If I were like that, why would I be a thief? My dad always wanted me to be a policeman when I was little, but I never expected that I would end up dealing with the police by some twist of fate. Does this fulfill my dad's dream?"

Uncle Li ignored Ye Zi's teasing and sat down again, looking at her. "Now it seems they're not after us. We've crossed provincial borders, so the local police can't possibly track our movements."

Ye Zi looked puzzled. "How could there be so many policemen hiding in that car? It's like they were waiting for us. All the brothers have been arrested, and the second-in-command and the others have disappeared."

A thunderbolt flashed through Uncle Li's mind: Could it be that what that kid said was true?

Did he really fool the second-in-command and his men?

That's five lives lost.

Even Uncle Li has never killed more than five people since he started out.

"It seems there's someone in this car who's even more dangerous than me. It seems the police still haven't found him. Now that I think about it, the police must be keeping an eye on this couple."

Uncle Li slapped his thigh. "What bad luck! Why couldn't I resist fighting him? If I had insisted on not hunting from the beginning, this trip would have been fine. Now look what's happened, the entire sect has been wiped out."

"Ye Zi, now it's just you and me left."

Ye Zi plopped down on Uncle Li's lap, listening to the noise outside the door, and asked, "Do you think our act of playing the victim will fool the police?"

Uncle Li slowly stretched out his hands. "I had no choice but to resort to this tactic. Those who were caught had to betray us in order to atone for their crimes. There's no morality in the thief business; they're all treacherous."

“I have a murder case on my record. If they implicate me, at worst I’ll just be a thief and get a few months in prison.”

"The next stop is the final stop, we definitely can't run away, so we have to take advantage of the chaos to move."

Ye Zi took a breath, stood up, sat on the sofa, and smiled. "Aren't you afraid I'll buy you?"

Uncle Li did not speak.

Ye Zi handcuffed Uncle Li's hands without asking.

"So what do we do now?"

Uncle Li rubbed his cheek. "Wait, the police will come to pick up these thieves at the next stop. The plainclothes officers, police officers, and train police on the train... this is a cross-provincial arrest, they definitely won't recognize each other. When the time comes, you'll escort me off the train while wearing this police uniform."

Ye Zi lowered her head and said, "I'll listen to you."

Inside the police station.

The train police officer sat opposite Wang Bo and Wang Li, interrogating them.

The photos in the wanted poster image library did not match the two individuals at all, so the train police were unable to arrest them.

At least in their chain of evidence, although these two were being watched by Captain Li, that was Captain Li's business.

The interrogation and other matters were left to Captain Li. As they were in charge of jurisdiction outside the local area, they were only providing assistance.

They didn't follow the entire process of this case.

"We know the details of the robbery. Please sign here."

The train police officer handed the interrogation record to Wang Bo and casually asked, "Why are you carrying so much ghost money?"

Wang Bo took the document, looked at it, and wrote his name on it: "Bought from the underworld."

"use."

"Bribery." Wang Bo filled in the name and handed it over. "Bribing whom?"

"A little devil on the road," Wang Bo laughed.

The train police officer eating his boxed lunch behind him looked up and said, "Hey, you're not that old, why do you believe in this stuff?"

"That's a two-way street. If death is like a lamp going out, then it's just a pile of waste paper. But if people go to another world after death, and the ghosts there like money, then my money has meaning."

Wang Bo smiled and said, "I think this money might end up being burned for me."

Wang Li glared at him, "That's unlucky. Why are you talking nonsense?"

"Always having something to hide is not a good thing," the train police officer reminded them. "If there's nothing else, you two can go back now."

Wang Li immediately stood up, took the joss paper, and said, "You're right, I'll throw this pile of paper away later."

"Oh, by the way, the young man sitting with you fainted while donating blood. He's afraid of blood, so we've arranged for him to rest in a private room. The doctor gave him a sedative injection. You can go and see him later."

Wang Bo was stunned.

"Afraid of blood yet still donating blood, what a..."

In the box.

Wang Li carried Sha Gen's empty handbag; now it was all gone, not even the ghost money was left inside.

The heavy 60,000 yuan has now become an empty backpack.

Besides the stale eggs, all that was left inside were hard, dry steamed buns and receipts.

This is what he's spent over the past few years; this seemingly foolish young man appears to be desperately trying to leave his mark on this world.

Wang Bo leaned against the wall, deep in thought.

This short train journey changed him a lot in just a few days.

It turns out that a person's change really is influenced by events.

Wang Li sighed, "I really hope he can sleep like this forever, never wake up and never find out, and always think that this world is simple, a world without thieves."

Wang Bo realized what was happening, but still smiled, "That's easy, just have the doctor double the dose of sedatives and turn him into a vegetable."

Wang Li looked down at her empty backpack. "So many years have passed, I've traveled all over the country, and I finally made up my mind to do a good deed, but God didn't give me the chance."

"It seems that God really intends for me to suffer retribution."

Wang Bo paused for a moment, then walked behind Wang Li, bent down and patted her shoulder. "Don't overthink it. We need to get out of the car quickly. The police are after us."

Wang Li wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Just as the two were about to get up, the door to the private room was opened.

Captain Li watched the two of them quietly.

Wang Bo's heart sank to the bottom.

Is he still unable to leave? He looked at the pregnant Wang Li with a heavy heart.

Is this retribution?

Captain Li glanced at the two men, walked over to Sha Gen, and pulled out a bulging pile of things from his pocket.

"This is... Shagen's?" Wang Li exclaimed in surprise, her eyes wide.

Captain Li opened the newspaper-wrapped bundle of 60,000 yuan. "I'll keep it. This kid couldn't keep it. He exposed himself carrying such a large sum of money in front of so many thieves."

A thought flashed through Wang Bo's mind: he and his wife had always been with Sha Gen.

When did this male police officer make the move?

Is it...

Wang Bo looked out the window. They got off the car and stopped halfway through the journey.

At that time, he had a falling out with Wang Li, and the male police officer patted Sha Gen on the shoulder and got into the car.

On the way to the car, he switched Shagen's money with the prince's.

If the couple had left at that time, the money in Wang Li's backpack would have been fake.

It will truly always be in the hands of this male police officer.

They didn't actually need to protect him along the way; Shagen's money was absolutely safe.

Wang Bo smiled bitterly to himself. He had finally decided to do a good deed, but ended up getting himself involved.

Karma... good people don't live long.
