You should know that thieves generally don't do anything outrageous when they're discovered stealing," Ye Xiaofei exclaimed hastily. "Getting back one's belongings is expected, but confronting the thief or trying to take him to the police station could provoke him into acting violently out of desperation."

The thief's tweezers clattered to the ground.
"Damn thief, hit him."
"Right, take him to the police!"
In the heat of the moment, the crowd urged the driver to detour to the police station to hand over the thief and also praised Ye Xiaofei as a courageous and righteous young man.
"Kid, aren't you meddling a bit too much?"
