If he hadn't explained, Xu Moran would have just blushed for a while longer. But now, the atmosphere had become a little awkward.
Xu Moran's place looks like it belongs to a single woman living alone, so why would there be condoms? Could they be for her hookups after work? Or perhaps for those objects that temporarily function as her boyfriends?
Ugh, I can't think any further, otherwise it'll be way too dirty.
Whether someone is married or not, or who helps them alleviate loneliness during long nights, is their privacy, and the police officers at the local police station have no right to interfere.
Just as they were about to leave the house after pinning the thief down, they heard a voice coming from inside the closed door, "Darling, the bed's warm, aren't you coming?"
Xu Moran was taken aback, while the three police officers gave him a knowing look, as if they were all experienced and understood, and then, upholding the principle of serving the people, they quickly left Xu Moran's home.
As the thief was about to leave, the police captain sarcastically remarked, "You deserve your bad luck. Of all the houses to steal from, you had to steal from a policeman's house."
The thief said dejectedly, "Officer, I know I must have misread the almanac before going out today. I originally planned to rob Old Wang's family in the building across the street. I found out that Old Chen, who lives across the street, was away on a business trip today. Old Wang, being a compassionate man, was worried that Old Chen's wife would be scared sleeping alone, so he decided to stay with her overnight. But when I went into the convenience store to buy water, I saw this policewoman buying a lot of expensive things. And the last time she bought a toothbrush and a towel, she specifically insisted on getting the most expensive ones in the store—over a thousand yuan for a toothbrush! Officer, tell me, one is Old Wang who makes a living by comforting many women, and the other is a generous young woman. Even if I thought about it with my toes, I would definitely change my mind and rob the young woman. I never expected her to be a policewoman, and I never expected that she didn't live alone..."
The police officer found the thief's sighs amusing and interrupted him sharply, "Shut up! According to you, you not only feel wronged, but you also think you're right?"
The thief, having been invited to the police station for questioning before, shrank back and wisely chose to keep quiet.
Now that things have come to this, he has no choice but to accept his bad luck.
The police captain smiled and said to Xu Moran, "It seems that the income at the Municipal Bureau is much higher than that at the police station in our district. Officer Xu, um... I've worked at the grassroots level for many years, and all these years, I've always been loyal to the Party and wholeheartedly served the people. If there's an opportunity, I mean, if the Municipal Bureau is short-staffed, please let me know in time, and I'll try to get it!"
Xu Moran was relieved that the police captain finally stopped boasting to himself just when she got goosebumps. As a lowly criminal investigator, the highest-ranking leader she could usually come into contact with was Sun Xingchao. How could she know whether the police station was short-staffed or not?
Just as I was about to shake my head honestly, the police captain continued, "Officer Xu, last year the two-child policy was relaxed, and as a Party member, I had to set an example. This year, my second son arrived. I was hoping for a daughter to balance the current serious gender imbalance in the country, but unexpectedly, another son came along. Two sons! I feel like I can't see the end of my life."
Xu Moran sensed the pessimism in his tone and was about to say a few words of comfort when the police captain stood up straight and said with an imposing air, "However, I am an outstanding cadre cultivated by the Party. How can I give up so easily? Therefore, I want to go to the Municipal Bureau, earn more money, raise my two sons better, and make more contributions to the motherland in the future!"
Xu Moran opened his mouth wide and remained silent for a full half minute before closing it. "I'll let you know when the opportunity arises."
"Thank you, Officer Xu!" the police captain said earnestly.
His seriousness made Xu Moran a little embarrassed. After watching the police escort the thief downstairs, she closed the door, stood there for a while, and then went to knock on the bedroom door. "Sir, did you hear what I just said? Being low-key and frugal is the best way to ensure your safety and avoid being targeted by bad people."
"I was wrong. I will definitely listen to your advice on thrift and frugality from now on." Just when Xu Moran thought the man in the room would retort with a sarcastic remark, "Aren't you a policeman? What are you afraid of bad guys for?"
She was prepared to deal with his sarcastic remarks, but to her surprise, he didn't play by the rules at all, leaving her at a loss for words.
