It wasn't long before three police cars raced over, with eight or nine fully armed officers filing out.
Xu Qingfan was startled by the commotion, and the arriving officers were just as confused.
Hadn't the dispatcher said it was a "daylight robbery with multiple people involved"? So, where were the culprits?
The truth was that Xu Qingfan had spoken in such a rush that he hadn't made himself clear, causing the dispatcher to worry about a miscommunication from a child and didn't dare take it lightly, so they sent out the entire police station's force.
"Brother Xu!" One of the young men seemed to recognize Xu Aiguo and called out excitedly.
"Ah? Xiaohai!" Xu Aiguo squinted and sure enough, it was an old comrade-in-arms!
"When did you get discharged?" Xu Aiguo took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and offered one.
"Just got out last year. I'm on a mission now, can't smoke," Fang Xiaohai waved his hand.
