Chapter 228: Wanted Criminal
His wanted crime was fraud.
He was suspected of defrauding more than ten women, ranging from women in their forties and fifties to teenage girls.
The fraudulent amount totaled five million.
If Isaiah really called the police, as soon as they arrived, Alexander would be exposed.
In his next life, he would basically spend it in prison.
Thinking of this, Alexander trembled all over.
"Isaiah, you have to believe me, I am not a scammer!"
"Not a scammer? Then bring your Sprinter and Range Rover to prove it!" Isaiah said coldly. Seeing Alexander's expression, she was now basically certain that this guy was a scammer.
Coincidentally, there were police officers patrolling nearby, and there was even a police car parked next to them.
"Officer! I want to report something!"
Isaiah suddenly shouted.
"What's going on?" When the police officer heard the noise, he walked over and asked.
He was just a patrol officer in this area, coming out for a walk after dinner.
"He impersonates a wealthy person and scammed my money!" Isaiah pointed her finger at Alexander.
"Scammed money?"
The police officer's gaze fell on Alexander. "Sir, please show your identification."
"Alexander, no matter what, these past few days, you have been living off of me. I must have spent around three to four thousand dollars. And yet, you lied to me, claiming to be the CEO of a top 500 company! If you really were a big shot like that, I refuse to believe that you couldn't even come up with three to four thousand dollars." Isaiah said expressionlessly.
"These three to four thousand dollars should at least keep you detained for a few days!" he added.
At this moment, when he heard the police asking for identification, Alexander's face instantly turned pale, cold sweat dripping from his forehead, and he hesitated to produce his identification.
Once the identification was handed over, it would be immediately checked against the national police system. All sorts of information would appear, and he wouldn't be able to escape.
"Hurry up and show your identification!" the police officer coldly shouted.
Seeing the change in Alexander's face, the officer felt something was off.
"Fine...fine," Alexander reluctantly took out his wallet and handed his identification to the officer.
Right now, he only hoped that the officer did not carry a police device on him.
But the next moment, his hopes were dashed.
The officer took out a black device from his pocket and quickly scanned Alexander's identification.
"An A-class wanted fugitive!"
Beep! Beep! Beep!
A prompt immediately appeared on the police device's screen.
"This is not good!" Alexander's eyelid twitched when he saw the prompt, and he turned around and ran.
In the next moment, the police officer finally reacted and shouted, "Don't run, stop!"
Saying that, he immediately gave chase.
But his reaction was a bit slow, and Alexander had already run about five meters away and was getting farther and farther.
At this time, Noah's gaze flickered, and he picked up a disposable chopstick from the table, held it with his clean left hand, and flicked it forward!
The chopstick tore through the air with a whooshing sound, like a bullet, shooting towards Alexander.
A splash of blood burst from the calf of Alexander's left leg.
The chopstick had viciously pierced into the flesh of his calf, causing blood to flow. In an instant, his entire leg became a bloody mess.
Alexander staggered, fell to the ground, and clutched his calf, howling in pain.
"Ah! It hurts so much!"
The police officer ran to Alexander's side, took a look at the disposable chopstick sticking out of his calf, and his face turned incredibly shocked.
Even from such a distance, this young man had managed to plunge a chopstick into his own leg. The strength in his hands was unbelievably powerful! This force could rival that of a bullet!
Then, the officer's gaze fell on Alexander once again, and he coldly commanded, "Squat down! Hands on your head!"
Alexander's face turned ugly. The intense pain in his leg made his facial muscles twitch, and he could only obediently squat down and cover his head.
Click!
The cold handcuffs were placed on Alexander's wrists.
The police held Alexander and walked up to Noah with a smile on their faces. "Young man, you're quite skilled! Thanks to you, we were able to catch this wanted criminal before they could escape!" Noah replied nonchalantly, "It was no big deal, just a small favor." Isaiah's jaw dropped in disbelief as he looked at Alexander. He couldn't believe this guy was a wanted criminal.
"Yes, he's a Class A wanted criminal, accused of fraud, with over a dozen female victims and millions of dollars involved," the police said, looking at the information on their police tablet. "Madam, if it wasn't for your timely report, we wouldn't have known when we could have caught this criminal." Obviously, the police were in a good mood.
To catch a wanted criminal just by taking a walk after dinner and patrol the streets — this accomplishment would have a great impact on their promotion in the future. "Madam, could you please leave us your phone number? We'll need witnesses to make statements when this case concludes, and we'll contact you then," the police added.
"Of course, you can have my phone number," Isaiah informed the police. "Good!" The police noted down the phone number and then looked at Noah. "Young man, you also deserve credit for catching this wanted criminal. When the case is closed, we will reward you financially." "Thanks," Noah replied with a faint smile.
"That's the least we can do. After all, there are not many people who would act bravely like you did. Alright, enough talking, I'll take this wanted criminal back to the police station." The police escorted Alexander into the police car and left on an ordinary road.
Phew... Isaiah sighed a long sigh of relief as she watched Alexander leave. She still felt a lingering fear. If it weren't for Noah's reminder, she might have fallen into his trap. In the end, she was left with nothing after being deceived by Alexander and had nowhere to grieve. "Noah, thank you for this time," Isaiah expressed her gratitude towards Noah. "It was just a reminder," Noah replied lightly. Though he didn't have much fondness for Isaiah, he still felt a twinge of sympathy when he saw that she was about to be fooled. However, he had only given a reminder; whether or not she could comprehend it was not Noah's concern.
"Your reminder prevented me from suffering a great loss," Isaiah said gratefully. Then, she glanced at Noah's car and her eyes flickered slightly. In the next moment, she leaned forward, intimately wrapping her left arm around Noah's, pressing her face against his arm and said, "Noah, is that Mercedes really yours?" "Well, I never!" Grace and Charlotte were both taken aback by this scene. Isaiah was being too direct! Just a moment ago, she was cold and mocking towards Noah.
Now, it suddenly felt as if a cat tightly clung to Noah's arm!
This contrast was so surprising that they didn't react immediately.
"Shameless! So shameless, is there anyone who would flirt like this! Any normal man, facing such a forward woman, wouldn't be able to resist! And Isaiah looks pretty good too, can Noah resist?" Grace was so furious, she clenched her teeth, she had a good impression of Noah.
But she couldn't be as forward as Isaiah.
In that instant, Grace felt like something that originally belonged to her had been snatched away.
This made her very unhappy.
"What are you doing?"
Noah was taken aback and looked at Isaiah, he couldn't understand.
"That Mercedes, is it really yours?"
Isaiah shook Noah's arm and asked again.
"It's mine, can you let go first?" Noah's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
