Chapter 3 Supermarket Theft"



On the fourth floor of the supermarket, in the outdoor survival supplies store next to the weapons store.

After Rudy finished buying the arms, instead of leaving the fourth floor, he started shopping in other shops on the fourth floor with a natural expression. At first, the salesmen here ignored him just like the clerks in the gun shop. After all, he was a child.However, when they saw a lot of pounds dumped on the table, they became uneasy and basically had the same reaction as the clerk in the gun shop.

God, for money's sake, don't care if he's a kid.

So, in the next 10 minutes, Rudy bought a serrated saber with a blood groove on the back, a tactical belt, a high-power monocular telescope, the latest watch, and a custom-made watch at the field supplies store. I got a pair of small military boots.

Satisfied Rudy and an even more satisfied clerk happily completed the transaction, and the clerk kindly asked Rudy to fill in the delivery address, and they would send someone to deliver the custom-made military boots to his door.

Looking at the clerk with a bright smile on his face, Rudy could guarantee that he had never seen his mother so enthusiastic.

See, this is the power of money.

As Rudy left the fourth floor of the shopping mall, followed diligently by the security guards on the fourth floor, he showed a contemptuous smile and murmured to himself in Chinese: "Money can make the world go round. Ha, the ancients never deceived me."

(To prevent the staff on the first floor from misunderstanding, the security guard on the fourth floor planned to send the distinguished guests out of the mall in person. Of course, he would never say that he had received a tip of 200 pounds and smiled sideways.)

After coming down from the fourth floor, Rudy was followed by the security guard. The two of them went to the kitchenware store and tableware store on the third floor, ordering several sets of tableware, various kitchenware, and brand new gas stoves, range hoods, ovens, etc. stuff and have them all delivered to the apartment at 54 Baker Street.

After buying these, Rudy called the stunned security guard with satisfaction and went to the second floor to buy some daily necessities and a few sets of clothes for each season.

However, the clothes cannot be delivered to your door, so Rudy had to pay the security guard an extra 100 pounds to help carry the paper bags filled with clothes.

The supermarket is equipped with security guards on each floor. When customers shop on each floor, they will get an invoice, so that when they leave the supermarket, they will be misunderstood by the inspector at the gate because some items have not been paid out.

For some of them who have purchased valuable or large quantities of items that need to be shipped and ordered, the security guards on the general floor will follow them to the exit to present their vouchers.

Finally, more than 40 minutes after entering the mall, Rudy returned to the food area on the first floor of the mall. Just when he was planning to buy some more raw materials and try to cook his own food when he went back in the evening, something seemed to have happened nearby, causing the crowd around him to They all gathered around.

Rudy frowned, gave up his original plan to purchase raw materials, called the security guard and walked to the cashier on the first floor.

Who would have thought that as soon as he arrived at the testing gate next to the exit, several security guards and people in police uniforms came up and stopped him: "I'm sorry, kid, I need you to stay here for a while and cooperate with the investigation." .”

After the security guard behind them came forward to explain, they still shook their heads and said they could not let him go.Rudy asked the reason and learned that the group of people gathered around just now because of the serial thefts that occurred in the supermarket.A 23-year-old man with short brown hair secretly stuffed several packets of snacks and water into his jacket pocket in the food area.When he was about to leave, he was caught on the spot by several security guards and officers from the London Police Department who had been watching him for a long time.

Originally, if you were caught doing something as trivial as this, you would either have to give him a beating, educate him or send him to the police station for some "ideological education."But the problem is, it doesn't seem to be that simple.After all, according to several police officers, they had ambush there in advance and seemed to have been targeting each other for a long time.

A female police officer comforted the slightly impatient customers around her and explained to Rudy: "The manager of the supermarket has often reported to us in the past few days, saying that someone has been stealing frequently in the supermarket for as long as a week."

"We have been lying in wait here for several days, and finally this guy finally showed his true potential today."

Rudy squinted his eyes speechlessly and asked, "Now that we've caught him, wouldn't it be better to just take him away?"

The female police officer helplessly held her forehead and said: "It turns out that it was indeed solved like this, but I didn't expect that the prisoner would not admit guilt. It must be my first time."

"He even said that he was a tourist from France. His wallet was stolen a few days ago. He was so hungry that he came to the supermarket to steal things."

......

After hearing this, Rudy walked toward the crowd not far away under the suspicious eyes of the security guard. What happened was probably similar to the description of the policewoman, but some details still need to be confirmed.

Among the crowd, a man with helpless eyes, a disheveled face, and a stubble was resisting and struggling under the oppression of two policemen, while shouting loudly: "This is my first time, I did not steal continuously! "

Looking at the people watching the opera around him, Rudy couldn't help but complain: "Mr. Lu Xun forgot that not only the Chinese people like to watch the show, but the Chinese people also like to watch it"...

"Now that you've done it, why don't you admit it..." Rudy looked at the man who was still resisting desperately with an indifferent expression. He only hoped that the police gentlemen could work more efficiently.

Thinking of this, Rudy was about to turn around and go back to the testing station to wait. At this moment, a clear and confident voice came to his ear - "He didn't lie. He was lying on the park bench next to our house all day yesterday. Come on, right dad?"

Rudy, who was about to turn around and leave the crowd, was startled and turned to look at the source of the sound.

Upon entering the eye, a head of messy and thick brown curly hair covered most of the girl's face, but judging from the girl's fair and tender cheeks...

Is that a little girl who looks a little shorter than him?Maybe, the other person's actual age may look a little younger than Rudy, but for girls, age and appearance are never equal.

There is a saying that some big little girls look too much like dolls, and Rudy sometimes wonders if he has any potential special hobbies when he looks at them so cutely.

Rudy was stunned when the man beside the girl leaned down and smiled gently: "Of course, dear, I never doubt your memory."

Giving up on the strange behavior of approaching him to strike up a conversation, Rudy walked towards the bathroom. He felt that something hard on his waist was about to fall off and needed to be 'tied'.

A few minutes later, Rudy tightened the pistol stuck on his back. He couldn't help but feel lucky. When he passed the security check just now, if the pistol had fallen to the ground with a "clack", things would have been difficult.

He could imagine that several police uncles and aunts who were amiable one second would immediately point their guns at him and shout: "Raise your hands! Put down your weapons!"...

After breathing a sigh of relief, he washed his hands at the sink and started to leave.At this time, two cleaning aunts came over with a cleaning cart. One of them complained as they walked: "What the hell, what's going on these days? I'll clean the bathroom before I get off work tomorrow night." , but when I mop the floor the next morning, I always find food crumbs, packaging bags, and cigarette butts in the trash can and on the ground beside it..."

Another aunt persuaded: "Oh God, you must have been in trouble recently..."

The two of them pushed the car away as they talked. In front of the sink, Rudy couldn't help but narrowed his eyes while listening.

He put one hand in his pocket and held his chin with the other, lowering his head slightly and thinking deeply: 'According to what the female police officer said before, the supermarket has been burglarized for a week. If the criminal outside did not lie, then he should not be a serial theft criminal. , just shouldering the burden for my colleagues. '

'There are always food packaging bags, food scraps, and cigarette butts in the bathroom the next morning. These should be things left by the real criminals. '

After thinking about it, Rudy returned to the bathroom again, opened the doors one by one, and carefully observed the structure of the bathroom.Finally, when he saw the ceiling less than one meter away from the top of the bathroom stall wall, the corners of his mouth turned up: "I know where the real prisoner is hiding."

After walking out of the bathroom, this time Rudy did not continue to the testing port, but returned to the place surrounded by the crowd.

Among the crowd watching the excitement, the two police officers seemed to have not eaten breakfast. They caught the first one and refused to take away the prisoner who had not eaten for a long time. Rudy was speechless for a while.

But fortunately, their incompetence gave Rudy time to figure out where the real prisoner was hiding.

Rudy arranged his clothes, found the security guard in the crowd who was still watching the show in a daze, handed the thing he was carrying to him, and then stepped forward and walked out.

Just when he coughed twice and was about to speak to interrupt the three big men who were 'passionately' in front of him, another tall figure approached him from behind, strode past him and came to the front of the three men and shouted: " Okay! What on earth are you doing!?"

"The majesty of the Royal Police has been wiped out by you!"

The two police officers immediately released their grip on the prisoner, stood at attention, saluted and shouted, "I'm so sorry! Chief Gordon!"

The prisoner who was holding on to a pillar was relieved at this moment. He looked at the new man and cried loudly: "Sheriff!? Mr. Sheriff! I am really not a serial thief! You believe me!"

Gordon, who was called the Sheriff, looked at the scene in front of him and felt a little pain in his head. The scene was so chaotic and so many people were detained here. If he might get complained, why would he, the Sheriff, still do his job? Already?

He thought about it in his mind, and finally decided to ignore Sanqi 21 and bring the person back to the station first.

He waved his hand and signaled his men to arrest him. Just as he was about to ask his men to be smarter, Rudy behind him suddenly walked out of the crowd, came to him, looked at him and said: "He is indeed a thief. But he is not the real prisoner."

Chief Gordon stared blankly at the kid who came out of nowhere, and watched him say such a sentence in a very calm voice. His whole body was stunned, and he subconsciously asked: "Then Who is the real culprit?"

But after asking, he regretted it again. He felt that he must have lost his mind and was taken away by a child.

But what confused him was far more than that.

The next second after he finished asking, Rudy said casually, as if he had rehearsed: "The real prisoner has always been here and never left."

"Wow!——" As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was shocked. Not only Chief Gordon and his two police officers, but also the prisoner who was holding the pillar and refused to let go were stunned.

In the crowd, someone suddenly shouted: "Then where is the real prisoner!?"

Rudy raised the corners of his mouth again, put his hands in his pockets and looked at the confused Chief Gordon with a smile: "As long as you do as I say, the real prisoner will come out on his own."
