Seeing her, Lei Chong nearly choked on his breath and almost passed out.
His eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at the police officer, looking at him as though he were an idiot.
Noticing his gaze, the police officer raised his chin in disdain and said, "You think I'm a fool? Let you go and get me expelled from the station? Do you know how hard it is to find work these days? Are you going to pay for my social security?"
Lei Chong's eyes reddened in fury. What an idiot!
Helping him would have meant a windfall of money. He didn't need to work for a living.
His mother and grandfather had always told the townspeople that one big score was worth ten small ones; a year of work could mean ten years of lounging around.
Why didn't that work for him?
He was still just a child, and his emotional control was poor. With a loud wail, he burst into tears.
