"So... you're sure it's just assistance, and the video content won't have any impact on me?"
Looking at the tablet the officer handed him, Xu Lu asked another question.
"That's right! This was a case of helping each other. We just didn't react in time, and you laughed at us!"
The officer nodded and then said:
"We caught the four pickpockets in the video not long ago, but surprisingly, we were unable to find any stolen goods on them."
Look at this video. It clearly shows four pickpockets taking the victim's wallet, but during questioning, all four pickpockets claimed they didn't move the stolen goods..."
At this point, the police officer glanced at Xu Lu and said:
"Based on our assessment, the pickpockets were likely not lying, and besides the pickpockets and the victim, Mr. Xu Lu, you were the only outsider at the scene..."
"That's right! It was me who made the move!"
Before the officer could finish asking the question, Xu Lu nodded and admitted it.
Now that things have come to this point, there's no need for him to keep things mysterious any longer, and besides, he's only assisting anyway.
"You...you made a move? Mr. Xu Lu, you mean..."
Upon hearing his words, the police officer was momentarily speechless.
Xu Lu smiled and said:
“I was live streaming at the time, and you can see from the surveillance video that I happened to see several pickpockets.”
I told my fans in the live stream that I would show them the trick of "fighting fire with fire".
"Well, so the pickpockets took the wallets from the victims, and I went over, took the wallets back, and put them into the bags of several other victims."
"Is it really you?"
"How could you do that in such a short time?"
"You managed to steal the wallet from the pickpocket without them even reacting?"
The surrounding police officers all spoke up in shock.
Only the plainclothes police officer leading the team remained somewhat calm, but he also looked astonished, as if he had witnessed some kind of miracle.
"Mr. Xu, although it's clear from the back of the video that the victims' wallets weren't stolen, but..."
It's not that we don't trust you, it's just that could you demonstrate the process live?
Xu Lu pointed to the tablet and asked in confusion:
"Can't you just slow down the video? That way we can see it."
"Mr. Xu, you probably have no idea how fast you are. We slowed down the video before."
The pickpockets were actually quite skilled, but they were still exposed in slow motion.
But your intervention... to be honest, even after slowing down the video, it still didn't work.
The plainclothes captain looked on with a sigh.
As the captain of the anti-pickpocketing team, he had seen countless thieves and pickpockets, but he had never seen anyone with such amazing skills.
To put it bluntly, if this kind of skill were ranked among pickpockets and thieves, it would be at the level of an ancestor!
Even now, although they see something amiss in the surveillance footage, you can't even see other people's actions clearly in slow motion!
"I see!" Xu Lu nodded and said:
"Alright, who wants to try it out? By the way, this is just a one-time experience, and I only did it because you asked!"
Upon hearing this, several plainclothes police officers were eager to try, saying:
"I'll do it! I refuse to believe I didn't even react when I was being robbed!"
“That’s right! Although Mr. Xu’s technique may be fast, people’s senses are very sharp.”
"I'm in too. You come and take my phone from my right pocket. If you can take it, you win..."
Seeing that several of his subordinates had spoken up, the plainclothes captain, who was about to speak, stopped talking.
He was originally very curious about the other party's abilities and wanted to experience them for himself.
But now that several capable assistants are experiencing it, they should be able to test the true level of this young man in front of them.
As they were thinking, Xu Lu, who was sitting in front of everyone, remained motionless, as if he hadn't heard what everyone was saying.
What's even more baffling is that this guy actually pulled out a phone and started playing with it.
Seeing this, one of the officers couldn't help but urge:
"Mr. Xu, we are all ready. You can begin now... Hmm, why does that phone in your hand look so familiar?"
Upon hearing this, the officer who had been urging him earlier changed his expression and hurriedly reached into his pocket.
Then, his expression instantly turned strange.
Seeing their partner's reaction, the other two officers quickly reached into their pockets, and then all three of them froze on the spot.
At that moment, Xu Lu began taking things out one by one, and the first thing he put on the table was the phone.
That's right!
In that instant, he had already used his 'Mastery of Thieves' skill to steal what he wanted from the three people.
As for the phone he was just playing with, it naturally didn't belong to Xu Lu, but to the police officer who had explicitly asked to touch his phone.
"This...this is simply outrageous! I couldn't find a single flaw; it's chilling!"
"This doesn't make sense. I didn't feel my phone being taken from my pocket at all. How could it just disappear like that?"
"That's incredible skill! If those pickpockets on the street had this kind of technique, we'd be helpless by now..."
Several police officers exclaimed in astonishment.
The plainclothes captain was equally shocked. He was about to speak when Xu Lu handed him a pen.
