Zhou Cheng, you were amazing today!

"Wife, listen to my ex... no, listen to my explanation..."

"Brother, didn't you just say I did well?"

"Forget it, I won't explain anymore. Brother, is that all? There are no other crimes, right? Hurry up and detain me; I plead guilty."

The man had initially wanted to quibble, but after thinking about Zhou Cheng's recent track record, he hurriedly pleaded guilty and accepted the punishment, not daring to say a single word of excuse.

Although he truly didn't remember committing any major crimes, he was genuinely afraid that Zhou Cheng would dig up a major crime against him.

That would truly be the end of him.

"Rest assured, it's just detention for about ten days, plus a five-thousand fine," Zhou Cheng said.

He tried his best to be gentle, so that everyone wouldn't feel afraid.

"That's good, then I can rest easy." The man breathed a sigh of relief.

This made Zhou Cheng feel somewhat helpless; was he really that terrifying?

It was just arresting a family, and throwing their lawyer in with them.

The onlookers at the scene saw that the man had only echoed the lawyer's words, yet he was detained by Zhou Cheng.

The scene immediately became lively again.

"Holy moly, even a dog passing by would get hit with a stick. This brother just echoed a sentence and got arrested?"

"Uh... don't talk nonsense. This guy broke the law himself, and it just so happened that they scanned the surveillance footage last night and caught him, okay."

"That's true. I suddenly remembered I forgot to bring my ID card, so I'll head back first and come back to replace it tomorrow."

"This Police Station is probably about to close. Wife, how about we go to a different Police Station to get things done?"

"Husband, I forgot to bring the child's birth certificate. Let's come back tomorrow to register the child's household."

"..."

For a moment, it was bustling with noise and excitement. Many people were flustered, and those who had originally come to replace their ID cards or register their children's household all left.

This left Zhou Cheng feeling a bit helpless.

It's not like I arrest everyone I see, is it really necessary?

Everything requires evidence. Do they really think I have an endless supply of police force value and would casually exchange it for evidence?

Thinking of the police force value, Zhou Cheng returned to his seat and opened the System.

He checked the rewards for arresting Wang Lun and that man from the red-light district.

[Host arrested Wang Lun, Reward: Outlaw]

[Outlaw: The Host is proficient in various domestic and foreign laws and can skillfully apply them!]

Seeing this reward, Zhou Cheng's eyes lit up.

He had previously obtained the Complete Collection of Xia Kingdom Laws, but it wasn't as comprehensive as this.

Being able to get this reward now is truly great!

[Host arrested Passerby A from the red-light district, Reward: police force value + 200]

This was the reward for that man just now; it was only police force value.

Additionally, there were rewards for suppressing the male and female leads, Gu Beifan and Zhang Yuanyuan.

[Host suppressed the Male Protagonist Gu Beifan, Reward: police force value + 10000]

[Host suppressed the Female Protagonist Zhang Yuanyuan, Reward: police force value + 3000]

This suppression should be similar to stripping them of their Protagonist Luck.

According to the settings of various novels and short dramas, the higher the Luck, the higher the level of protection from this world, which is the so-called Protagonist Halo.

When many protagonists encounter danger, they rely on the Protagonist Halo to escape death!

And as long as he suppresses them a few more times, the higher his police force value, the more safely and accurately he can arrest them!

...

Outside the Police Station, Gu Beifan stood in front of the car, looking at Zhang Yuanyuan who had come out with him.

"Sister Yuanyuan, Brother Zhou is really something. Even if Sister Su Yuan made some mistakes, she is, after all, your Best Friend, Sister Yuanyuan. How could he just arrest Sister Su Yuan?"

Gu Beifan's appearance looked somewhat delicate, lacking the firm and stylish look of Zhou Cheng.

His way of speaking was even a bit effeminate.

To use an unpleasant adjective, it meant he was a bit sissy.

Zhang Yuanyuan stood in place, looking at Gu Beifan. The image of Gu Beifan running out of the Police Station in a panic just moments ago was still in her mind.

"Was it just making some mistakes?" Zhang Yuanyuan murmured.

At this moment, she remembered what Zhou Cheng had just said.

Her Best Friend had defrauded dozens of people, and those people were all ordinary folks who earned their hard-earned money with their own sweat.

As a result, the money they worked so hard to earn was all taken by her Best Friend and squandered.

Was such a violation of the law really just making a small mistake?

She had even received quite a few bags and gifts from Zhou Cheng.

And yet, in Gu Beifan's eyes, this was just making a small mistake?

Shouldn't she have been arrested?

Zhang Yuanyuan looked at Gu Beifan expressionlessly.

This expression, this look, made Gu Beifan frown; he felt the change in Zhang Yuanyuan for the first time.

There was a feeling of a pet slipping out of control.

"Sister Yuanyuan, let's not talk about this. Let me take you back first." Gu Beifan wanted to change the subject.

"No need, I've already called a taxi." Zhang Yuanyuan shook her head.

If in the previous life, Zhou Cheng constrained her and stopped her from associating with Li Suyuan because he saw that she wasn't a good person...

Then what about Gu Beifan?

Could it be that Gu Beifan isn't a good person either?

Zhang Yuanyuan's pretty brows furrowed; her mind was a mess.

"Sister Yuanyuan, I know you must be very sad right now, and you must be very disappointed in Brother Zhou, but you must not get yourself upset. I know of a newly opened bar that's quite good; how about I take you there to relax?"

Gu Beifan continued to say, knowing that good girls generally liked a slightly indulgent lifestyle.

He wanted to repeat his old tricks.

"No." Zhang Yuanyuan shook her head and refused.

At this moment, she felt that compared to Zhou Cheng, Gu Beifan was far inferior.

Zhou Cheng would protect her, help her see the people around her clearly, and satisfy her in every way.

When she was sad or upset, he would cook, or play the animated characters she liked to cheer her up.

But what about this Gu Beifan in front of her?

The only thing he knew how to do was to take her to a bar to hang out.

For the first time, Zhang Yuanyuan felt disappointed in Gu Beifan.

"My car is here, I'm leaving first." After saying that, Zhang Yuanyuan immediately got into the ride-hailing car parked on the side of the road.

Gu Beifan watched Zhang Yuanyuan leave, then withdrew his gaze and looked toward the Police Station!

His eyes were filled with ruthlessness!

...

"Brother Zhou, you were truly amazing today."

In the office, Zhao Yier looked at Zhou Cheng with joy in her eyes, her gaze full of him.

This made Zhou Cheng feel both happy and melancholy.

What made him happy was that this girl didn't think it was cruel because he arrested people, which showed that her values were still correct.

And what made him melancholy was that it was obvious this girl had become love-brained over him.

If he kept refusing her, what would happen if she turned love into hate in the future, and then targeted and retaliated against him everywhere?

Zhou Cheng's thoughts wandered, and he thought of Zhao Feiyan from "Handsome Siblings".

Damn, that girl basically killed off almost everyone in the entire show.

And this girl also has the surname Zhao, and her background is extremely deep.

If she also slowly walks toward darkness...

Then what should he do?

And according to the tropes of some TV dramas, the biggest BOSS is often the person by your side!

When Zhou Cheng thought of this, a chill went down his back.

No, he had to slowly change her, train...

Uh... he had to properly shape her values.

"Xiao Zhao, you're not busy right now, are you? Let me tell you about a few more cases!"

"Okay!" Zhao Yier sat beside Zhou Cheng, full of joy.

She liked staying by Zhou Cheng's side the most now; it was safe and reliable!

"It is said that there was a woman named Xiao Mei,"

"During a trip, Xiao Mei met a Xiao Shuai. They got to know each other, yearned for each other, and fell in love, swearing eternal oaths. Xiao Shuai often told Xiao Mei: 'For you, I can give up everything, I can go against the whole world!'"

"But as she got to know him, Xiao Mei discovered that Xiao Shuai was actually the mastermind behind a criminal Group. If you were Xiao Mei, what would you do?"

"He is willing to give up everything for love. If I were Xiao Mei... should I also be with him regardless of everything?" Zhao Yier looked at Zhou Cheng, puzzled.

"Wrong!"
