If you were made a mascot, you would become a legend in the police force.

Life at the Municipal Public Security Bureau was a little different from what Li Tuantuan had imagined.

I originally thought that once I had a permanent position and became a deputy director-level "god beast," I could lie around all day, drink tea, read newspapers, and occasionally go out to catch a thief.

But the reality is...

"Gun Gun! Come here right now! The publicity department wants to film a promotional video!"

"Gun Gun! Over here! The mayor is coming to see you, hurry up and put that police uniform on!"

"Gungun! Wake up! A group of kindergarten kids are visiting, and you're in charge of greeting them!"

Li Tuantuan felt like she wasn't there to be a police officer, but rather to be a mascot.

Their daily schedule is packed even more than a celebrity's. It's all about taking photos, shaking hands, acting cute, or performing bamboo-eating acts.

[Li Tuantuan's inner monologue]: I'm tired. Let it all end. This is even more tiring than hunting wild boars in the mountains. What happened to the promise of punishing evil and promoting good? What happened to the tiger of the Serious Crimes Unit?

That noon, Li Tuantuan managed to evade two groups of reporters and took a break in the artificial cave in the garden.

Suddenly, he heard two people talking outside.

"Hey, what's the point of the bureau spending so much money to keep this panda?"

"It's all about getting traffic. The influencer economy is booming, and our police force has to keep up with the times. Look, since the panda arrived, our city bureau's official account has gained millions of followers."

"Pshaw, I think it's just a pretty face. When it comes to real cases, we're the ones who have to rely on. What can a panda do? Can it solve cases?"

"Shh! Keep your voice down, that's a deputy section chief, a higher rank than you."

"Deputy section chief my foot, he's just a beast..."

Li Tuantuan rolled her eyes inside the cave.

[Li Tuantuan's inner monologue]: Beasts? Your whole family are beasts. Just wait until I achieve something great, and I'll scare you bunch of sour grapes to death.

Just then, Lin Wan rushed over.

"GunGun! Where are you? Come out quickly! Something's happened!"

Li Tuantuan slowly emerged and shook off the bits of grass from her body.

"Huh?" (What happened? Did the sky fall?)

Lin Wan's face was grim: "We just received a report that a jewelry store in the city center has been robbed. The robbers are armed and have taken hostages. They're currently trapped inside the mall."

"The SWAT team has already gone there, but the mall's terrain is complex and there are too many hostages, so we dare not launch a direct assault."

"Director Chen specifically requested that you go. He said... only you can approach the robbers without arousing suspicion."

Li Tuantuan's eyes lit up.

Come to life!

Finally, I don't have to be a mascot anymore!

[Li Tuantuan's inner monologue]: Robbers? A jewelry store? This is a big case! That kid who called me a pretty face, open your dog eyes and take a good look!

Without saying a word, Li Tuantuan rushed back to her room, skillfully put on the specially made bulletproof vest, put on sunglasses, and jumped into Lin Wan's car.

"Set off!"

Sirens wailed.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the scene.

Wanda Plaza has been cordoned off. Police tape has been put up around it, and it's crowded with onlookers.

The SWAT team leader was none other than Captain Li, an old acquaintance with whom they had previously cooperated at the border.

"GunGun is here!" Captain Li saw Li Tuantuan as if she were his savior. "The situation is very troublesome. Three robbers, two shotguns, and one pistol. They are in the jewelry section on the third floor, and they have five hostages. They demand that we prepare a helicopter and ten million in cash."

"They were very agitated and opened fire whenever they saw police approaching. The negotiator who went up just now was almost hit."

"But..." Captain Li paused, "they seem to... really like animals."

"Huh?" Lin Wan was stunned.

"Just now, one of the robbers shouted that he was a fan of Gun Gun online. He said he would consider releasing one of the hostages if Gun Gun could come up and sign his autograph (leave a paw print) for him."

Everyone: "..."

Li Tuantuan: "..."

[Li Tuantuan's inner monologue]: These days, even robbers are fans of celebrities? The quality of these fans is terrible; how can they commit illegal and disorderly acts?

"This could be a trap," Lin Wan said worriedly. "What if they hurt Gun Gun?"

Li Tuantuan patted Lin Wan's hand.

"Mmm." (Don't worry, I know what I'm doing.)

He walked up to Captain Li, pointed to himself, and then pointed to the mall entrance.

The meaning is obvious: Wow!

Team Leader Li hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay! Be careful! The sniper will provide cover for you the whole time. If there's any danger, retreat immediately!"

Li Tuantuan adjusted her sunglasses and swaggered towards the mall entrance.

He wasn't carrying any weapons (nor did he need any), just a huge autograph board and a marker.

The scene was so beautiful that the onlookers were stunned.

"Holy crap! It rolled in!"

"Is he going to the meeting alone?"

"A panda negotiation expert? That's amazing!"

Li Tuantuan walked into the mall.

The place was empty, with only faint sobbing sounds coming from the third floor.

He took the elevator to the third floor.

As soon as the elevator doors opened, three hooded robbers were seen pointing guns at several hostages.

The three robbers were stunned when they saw a giant panda emerge from the elevator.

"Holy crap! It really is a giant panda!" one of the robbers shouted excitedly. "Alive! Bigger than in the video!"

The leader of the robbers was also surprised, but remained vigilant: "Don't move! Hands up...claws!"

Li Tuantuan obediently raised her paw and waved the autograph board in her other hand.

"Mmm." (I'm here for an autograph, please don't shoot.)

"Big brother, it's really here! Can we take a picture with it?" The fan robber's hands were shaking.

The leader cursed, "Screw you! We're here to rob, not for tourism! But... this thing is really rare. If we tie it up, wouldn't it be worth more than hostages?"

Li Tuantuan's ears twitched.

[Li Tuantuan's inner monologue]: You want to kidnap me? The last person who tried to kidnap me (Old K) is still working as a sewing machine in the police station.

He pretended not to understand, took two steps forward with a silly grin, and handed over the autograph board.

Just as the fan-robber reached out to take it...

Li Tuantuan moved.

But he did not use force.

He suddenly slipped (pretending) and rolled forward like a giant ball of flesh.

This roll was incredibly fast and had astonishing momentum.

"Gurgle—"

"Ouch!"

The fan robber was knocked to the ground, and his gun flew out of his hand.

The leader instinctively wanted to fire, but Li Tuantuan had already rolled to his feet, stretched out her claws, and grabbed his leg.

Then, he unleashed his signature move – the Panda Slam.

"rise!"

The force of three hundred pounds exploded.

The leader felt as if he were being lifted up by a crane, his whole body was thrown into the air, and he crashed heavily onto the jewelry counter next to him.

"Splash!"

The glass shattered. The older brother fainted.

The remaining robber was dumbfounded.

He looked at the panda that had instantly killed two of its companions, then at the pistol in his hand.

Li Tuantuan stood up, dusted off the glass shards on her body, took off her sunglasses, revealing a pair of murderous eyes.

He beckoned to the robber with his finger.

"Hmm?" (Want to try it too?)

The robber swallowed hard.

Clang.

The gun fell to the ground.

The robber crouched down, covering his head: "I surrender! Don't hit me! I'm a fake fan! I don't deserve to like you!"

The battle is over.

Time taken: 30 seconds.

When the special police rushed in, they only saw Li Tuantuan sitting on the unconscious man, holding a marker and drawing a pig's head on his black hood.

The hostages applauded.

"So cool!"

"So awesome!"

This battle solidified Li Tuantuan's position in the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

No one dared to call him a pretty face anymore.

He is a genuinely adorable but violent creature.
