I Swiped the Thief Saint's Heavenly Pearl, Only to Be Told It Was a Crime Prevention Show

To raise public awareness about preventing pickpocketing and theft, a TV station decided to launch a citywide anti-pickpocketing campaign.

They also invited the "Pickpocket Saint," who had recently been arrested, to take part.

The goal was to teach pickpocket-prevention tips to the entire internet through a live broadcast.

Viewers: "It's horrifying. You can never let your guard down!"

"My phone was just in my hand. How did it end up in his pocket in the blink of an eye?"

The Pickpocket Saint's every move was a success, and the show's viewership soared.

Until...

"Hey, hold on. Check if anything's missing from your person. We're livestreaming an anti-pickpocketing show, and frankly, your awareness of pickpockets is pretty poor!"

Hearing this, Shen Fei, who had been about to leave, was dumbfounded.

"I just swiped the Nine-Eyed Dzi Bead off you, and you're telling me this is an anti-pickpocketing show?"
