What does くて mean in this sentence?


For what I have studied till know, くて is 1- the te-form for negative verbs or
i-adjectives and it's used to conect the verb or adjective to another word. 2-
at the end of a sentence, in the case of the て form, is the short version of
てください. So I guess it could be that, but I could be horribly wrong about this.

いや。わたしというか父親が警察らしくてさ
