When Rose was about to leave, she noticed Li Du was putting on his tie, wearing a dress shirt and pants while standing near the door.
”What’s wrong with you? Did you forget to take your pills today?”
Li Du felt exasperated, with no words to rebut.
”What are you doing?”
He replied irritatedly, ”I’m going to help you catch those thieves. But since I am not an American citizen, if I catch those two, you guys have to give me some appreciation and award.”
Rose couldn’t control her laughter. ”You? Forget it. I’ve heard that you’ve made quite a fair amount of money from storage auctions. There’s no way that you would take such a risk just for that little bit of prize money. Also, we don’t need to rely on the public for such work.”
Li Du said, ”Since you know that I’m making a good income from storage auctions, then you should have heard some rumors about me, right? I can use some secret magic to tell if a house has anything valuable without entering.
”Those two thieves would definitely have the valuable things they stole with them. I would be able to tell from outside. Then there would be no need to even enter and search. Do you want my help?”
Rose looked nearly convinced. ”Do you really use secret magic?”
Li Du rolled his eyes and said, ”Of course not! I just have a better eye at observing than most people. I’m going with you to knock on their doors. If there are any issues, I’ll be able to tell!”
Rose hesitated for a moment, and then said, ”Okay, thank you.”
Li Du was quite surprised; the uncaring landlady actually knew how to give thanks. This was the first time he had ever heard the word from her.
The district that they were going to search in was unsheltered and spread out. The heavy rain greatly increased the difficulty of the officers performing the search.
With the car parked on a street outside the district, they stood on the street and Rose took out some documents, passing them to Li Du.
The documents had various photographs of the two suspects; front, side and back. The two were African-Americans, one of them was bald with a scar on his lips. The other had an afro, with tattoos on his neck.
Li Du asked, ”According to the info that you have, these two would probably be at…”
”Hey, who the hell are you?” A rough voice came from in front of the two, and a black muscular male walked over with his forehead creased.
The black male was about six feet tall; with a thick and round waist, his uniform tightly clenched onto his large muscles.
When she saw the muscular man, Rose gave him a frigid look and said, ”Don’t bother about him. What do you want to ask about?”
The gorilla-like man then walked over and lunged to push Li Du, who could now control the powers of the bug to a masterful level. He immediately activated time deceleration, easily evading the outstretched arm.
Seeing his dodge, the man was stunned for a second, and then said furiously, ”I’m talking to you, are you deaf? Also, Banana Girl, I saw that you gave this guy our classified info—what are you thinking?”
Rose coldly stared at him and said, ”Chuck, are you looking for a fight? P*ss off, don’t interfere with our operation.”
”Your operation? When did our station have another Banana Boy? How would I not have known?” The gorilla man, Chuck, snickered.
”F*ck you!” Rose gave him the finger, showing off her tough side again.
