"And then what? Did you catch the guy?"
As Zhao Yangwu paused for breath, one of the detectives couldn't help but ask impatiently.
"Let me catch my breath, will you?" Zhao Yangwu's expression was a sight to behold. The first part of the story had been fine, but what came next was where he'd started to look like a fool. He needed a moment to steel himself. "Of course we caught him. I've been a detective for years. He was right in front of me. You think I'd let him get away? What a rookie question."
Hearing that the suspect had been caught, everyone in the car finally relaxed a little.
"Have you caught your breath? If so, continue." Captain Fu frowned at his subordinate. 'Maybe I'm usually too easy on them,' he thought. 'Look at them, falling apart at the first sign of trouble. Can't even speak clearly, just dragging things out.' "Just the highlights. You can fill in the useless details in your report later."
