A Wizard's Survival Guide to the 20th Century

Chapter 23 23. I am really innocent

After Levi's protests and accusations, he was eventually thrown into a car and driven to the St. Francis North Beach Police Department.

In the interrogation room, a white chandelier hung above Levi and Sheriff Snowden, giving them a deathly light.

Levi looked at Mr. Sheriff nervously. He was a character who looked like the fat Thor from Avengers: Endgame. He was 1.85 meters tall, had a golden beard, and wore his police uniform as if he was one size too small.

The two stared at each other until there was a knock on the door.

Sheriff Snowden said in a low voice: "Come in."

The door was opened, and a younger police officer walked in. He held a document in his hand and said:

"Sheriff, we checked his home and found these things."

"Including change of 4 Philippine cents and 72 cents, an old watch, a lighter without kerosene (the kerosene was consumed in the synthesis of rooster blood), an identity passport issued by the New Cale State, and a driver's license - which proves that he is A legal resident of the Federation, a housing rental contract, and 20 resumes for job applications.”

"In addition, no other property was found, and no bank books were found."

After reading, the police officer and the police chief looked at Levi together, and their expressions could not help but be filled with sympathy and softened a bit.

I came to this strange city alone, with only 4 Philippine dollars left in my body, and I couldn't even refill my lighter without gas. I tried hard to find a job, but was repeatedly rejected.

So inspiring!

"So, it seems that he cannot be an accomplice of the kangaroo robber. There is no way that a friend of a guy who has stolen more than 12 Philippine dollars in total does not even have a new suit of clothes."

Sheriff Snowden concluded.

Li Wei nodded with satisfaction:

"I have emphasized that I am just a passerby who was innocently involved in this incident."

Hey, how much did she steal?

"But if you stay with the kangaroo robber for so long, you must know something!" Sheriff Snowden said ruthlessly.

"Bjornson, interrogate me!"

Outside the door, a man who was stronger than Chief Snowden squeezed past the young police officer and poked his head in, casting a shadow. The police uniform was like a baby vest on his body.

"Wait a minute, you don't have an arrest warrant, you can't detain a legal citizen without reason..."

Levi's scalp was numb and he was shocked. Just now, he was pinned to the ground and handcuffed by this guy. When he got up, he felt like he was being massaged all over by a master. Who knows what would happen if he was interrogated by this guy.

"Jie Jie Jie, you confessed for no reason." Snowden looked arrogant and grinned, "By the way, Björnson is a pansexual lover... Okay, I won't say more, the police chief Obedience is important, Bjornson, charge!”

The big man like a brown bear slowly approached with a look that was mixed with lust and admiration. Levi felt chills all over, thinking about the scene when he was about to become a big man. He resolutely decided to justly fulfill the sacred responsibility of a legal citizen against shameless criminals. .

"I'll do it! I'll do it! I'll do it all!" Levi shouted hurriedly.

Sheriff Snowden hugged his chest and nodded with satisfaction: "Look, isn't this good? I know there is an old saying in Siris that he who knows the current affairs is a hero. I think Mr. Li's intelligence will not fail to know that now Confessing truthfully is the most advantageous option."

"Okay, what do you want to hear?" Levi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Björnson retreating. He said that a man who really loves you is more intimidating than a beautiful girl who meets by chance.

Sorry, Miss Martha!

"What did he tell you?" Snowden changed his expression to a serious one.

The young police officer on the side picked up a pen and prepared to take notes.

"Well... first of all, he or she should be a female. I saw her face, and she was not disguised at the time."

Levi opened his mouth to correct a small mistake made by Sheriff Snowden...if Martha wasn't a transvestite.

As soon as the words fell, there was silence for a moment inside and outside the interrogation room, and then there was a sound of "oh ho".

"Very valuable information!" The young police officer nodded solemnly. “Finally a breakthrough!” Bionson said excitedly.

"That's right, write it down quickly!" Sheriff Snowden ordered.

Li Wei was shocked. Is your Jinshan City police's efficiency in handling cases so low? The other party has already robbed you of 12 Philippine dollars, and you don’t even know the other party’s gender?
  This is not 2023!
  Sheriff Snowden smiled awkwardly and said, "It doesn't matter, keep going, keep going."

Levi thought again for a while and said, "Okay, I saw her without covering up at that time. She looked like she was in her 20s, a little over meters tall, and had short hair that reached her ears."

"She told me that she was a Toltec and smuggled into the United States on a ship when she was 9 years old. Both her parents died while smuggling..."

"Wait, she is a Toltec, did she say this herself?" Snowden's eyes suddenly lit up, he stood up excitedly, and grabbed Levi's shoulders with both hands.

"Well, that's right." Levi was surprised.

"What else did she say?" Snowden was so excited that his tongue was tied.

"And...her name is Martha."

Levi fearfully avoided Snowden's spit.

"Malda of the Toltecs..." Snowden slumped backwards in his chair, his face as confused as a nest.

"Malda of the Toltecs!"

The young police officer and Björnsson couldn't help but hug each other and cry.

"Tell Big that he won't have to review Hollywood's casting list again." Chief Snowden said movedly, "We have faith!"

Levi was even more shocked. Is this the St. Francis Police Department or the St. Elizabeth Sanatorium?
  "You don't know, you don't know." Sheriff Snowden burst into tears.

"Kangaroo Bandit, he looks like a shapeshifter who can't tell the difference between male and female..."

……

"The first appearance of the Kangaroo Bandit was two years ago at the convenience bank on Eighth Street."

"According to eyewitness statements, the robber is a tall and thin black male from the southern continent with dreadlocks, dark skin."

"He did not cover his face, wore a sports coat, carried a backpack on his back, and held a black Colt m911 pistol. He quickly controlled the bank employees and ordered them to put money in their bags. After 3 minutes, he decisively He left the bank with a total of Philippine dollars in banknotes, and we didn't even see him when we came."

The young police officer dropped the portfolio on the gray table.

"We called this guy the 'Kangaroo Thief' because of his habit of carrying his backpack backwards. At that time, everyone thought that the case would be solved soon, but we didn't expect..."

"Three days later, when he showed up for the second time, he turned into a Sindi man wearing a white turban and a big beard. He robbed the Geqi Bank with a curry-flavored Inglish."

"The next time he appeared, he turned into an Arab...and then a Seris with braids, a Viking with a horn helmet, and Santa Claus with a thick white beard..." The young policeman The member gritted his teeth and said, "There was even a priest who was robbed who swore that he saw the Holy Father Jehovah!"

"That's right, that's it. He robbed more than 60 banks in two years. Today he robbed a few thousand, and tomorrow he robbed tens of thousands. Then we had to sleep well overnight and look around, and the kangaroo robber arrived again... "

Sheriff Snowden lit a cigarette, his eyes full of exhaustion.

"If we hadn't analyzed his body shape and habits and found out that they were the same person, I would have thought that the League of Nations was finally poor enough to set up the International Robbery Bureau."

"Now this guy is known far and wide as one of the Three Pests of California, the number one robber in St. Francis. His KPI is higher than half of the street brothers in this city. The state government has put pressure on us and we will definitely catch this thief. Let’s face it!”

"And you!" Sheriff Snowden pointed his hand towards Levi.

"You are our only hope now!"
