Chapter 106: Two-Pronged Attack

Xu Mo, lying on the bed and preparing to sleep.

As if he had thought of something.

He suddenly leapt up from the bed.

He walked over to the camera that was covered by a jacket.

He whispered.

"Did you just hear something? Let me clarify: the guesthouse has terrible soundproofing, what you heard came from the next room and has nothing to do with me."

The camera had already been blocked by the jacket.

The Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room had no idea what was happening inside.

Moreover, they didn't know how poor the guesthouse's soundproofing was.

So Xu Mo thought it was necessary to explain.

To prevent the Water Friends from misunderstanding.

Of course.

In fact, even without an explanation, the Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room knew it wasn't Xu Mo.

Even though they couldn't see the video.

But they could still tell by the sound that it wasn't Xu Mo.

They heard Xu Mo earnestly explaining to the Water Friends.

Zhou Qiaoqiao couldn't hold back and laughed.

She thought, the sisters online were right; men really care about these things.

However, her laughter passed through the wall and reached the ears of the two people next door.

The guy next door subconsciously thought they were making fun of him.

His face turned green with rage.

He regrouped.

"Damn it, again!"

Upon hearing that.

The Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room got excited.

They knew the next door was about to fight again!

Even though they couldn't see the live scene.

But listening to the sounds was still pretty good!

Even if it's brief, they could still listen!

However…

The next second.

The woman next door said casually.

"Forget it, let's sleep. I felt pretty comfortable just now."

The guy next door: "?? What do you mean?"

Xu Mo: "…"

Zhou Qiqi: "…"

Yang Jingxuan: "…"

Is there any other line that can hurt a man more than this?

Basically none.

Even through the wall, the awkwardness could be felt.

One can guess that the guy next door is now frozen in place, petrified by embarrassment.

Even Medusa's gaze is probably no worse than that.

Most Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room started firing Danmaku.

"This is just too tragic…"

"Which man can tolerate this? Brother, restart it."

"If you're sick you need treatment. I was like that before; later I found a folk remedy, took a few Chinese medicines and got better."

"I have a friend… he asked me to ask what that folk remedy is."

"Bro, what folk remedy? I'm not after it. I don't need that stuff; I'm mainly asking for my dad."

"Does that remedy work? My son always tells me he's not good at that, so I'm asking on his behalf."

"…"

A night passed without a word.

The next day.

The four members of the Investigation Team got up at the crack of dawn.

After getting up, they headed straight to the Security Company in charge of escorting the Cash Transport Vehicle.

Because they had already negotiated beforehand.

So when they arrived,

the counterpart's person in charge had already prepared guns loaded to the brim with Rubber Bullets for them.

"Han Team, these are your guns; they're filled entirely with Rubber Bullets, you can fire them without worry—they won't kill anyone."

"Thank you for your cooperation," Han Fei said with a smile. "Your guns are loaded normally, right?"

The person in charge nodded.

"The guns held by the escort personnel are loaded with normal ammunition; they have blanks, Rubber Bullets, and live rounds. I also told all the crew carrying out this escort mission that they must follow your commands."

The escort personnel's guns are normally loaded to prevent actual criminals from choosing this moment to rob the Cash Transport Vehicle.

Because the Investigation Team negotiated in advance, they will not fire at Xu Mo.

What they intend to deal with are the criminals other than Xu Mo.

But the guns that Han Fei and his men hold, packed with Rubber Bullets, are specifically for dealing with Xu Mo.

As long as Xu Mo dares to show himself.

They will dare to open fire.

Anyway, Rubber Bullets don't kill people.

At most, after a few shots, one might briefly lose mobility.

Han Fei extended his right hand and shook hands with the person in charge.

"Same as before, thank you for cooperating!"

After a brief exchange of pleasantries.

Han Fei and his group then boarded the Cash Transport Vehicle together with this escort team.

After getting on board.

Chen Ke looked at the Shotgun in his hand, packed with Rubber Bullets.

"Now Xu Mo will finally feel it! He's played us so many times!"

Han Fei gave Chen Ke a somewhat dissatisfied glance.

"We only need to stop him from hijacking the Cash Transport Vehicle and capture him; don't let personal revenge get in the way. Even though they're Rubber Bullets, getting hit is still unpleasant!"

"Got it, got it," Chen Ke said, "I'll try to fire as little as possible."

He said that.

But in reality.

If Chen Ke really gets to see Xu Mo.

He might even snap the trigger off.

There's no way around it; Xu Mo has outplayed them too many times.

Finally they have a legitimate chance to vent their anger.

Can he let it go?

Han Fei sensed a perfunctory tone in Chen Ke's words.

But he also has no real solution.

After all, the gun is in Chen Ke's hand.

You can't just seize the gun from Chen Ke's hand, right?

He sighed.

Han Fei said.

"I know you might not listen to what I say, but I still have to stress it again: watch your limits."

"Don't worry, Han Team! I know my limits!" Chen Ke said with a smile, nodding.

The Cash Transport Vehicle started.

Li Chen looked out the small window.

"Tell me, when will Xu Mo act? Will he move today?"

"Most likely not today," Shen Manni said, "His plan requires filing many false alarms; acting now would be premature, though it's hard to say—Xu Mo's thinking can't be measured by ordinary logic."

Han Fei also spoke at this moment.

"Whatever day he chooses, he'll eventually target the Cash Transport Vehicle. This time we have the advantage; we've made thorough preparations, so whenever he tries, he'll be destined to fail."

After speaking, Han Fei also raised the Shotgun in his hand.

What they hold in their hands is a Real Weapon.

Even if it's loaded with Rubber Bullets, its power is not to be underestimated.

As long as Xu Mo dares to come, he'll be caught.

Hearing that, the remaining three all nodded.

Han Fei was right; Xu Mo will eventually hijack the Cash Transport Vehicle.

The exact timing doesn't matter.

……

On the other side.

Wang Ju also arranged a large number of plainclothes agents along the route of the Cash Transport Vehicle.

Then, a two‑pronged attack.

Plainclothes along the way, and the Investigation Team on the Cash Transport Vehicle.

Both sides, in terms of numbers and equipment,

overwhelm Xu Mo.

This time, even with wings, Xu Mo can't escape.

……

In the guesthouse.

The three slept straight through to early afternoon.

Just as they opened their eyes, it was already 11 a. m.

After a quick wash.

Xu Mo planned to take Zhou Qiaoqiao and Yang Jingxuan downstairs to get something to eat.

All three had finished washing up.

The time had already reached twelve o'clock.

It was exactly the hotel's checkout time.

As soon as they stepped out the door, they bumped head-on into the neighboring young couple.

It looked like they were intending to check out and leave.

The man had huge dark circles under his eyes; one could tell at a glance that he was very tired from last night.

As for the woman, her face was full of unhappiness; it was obvious she was dissatisfied with the man's performance last night.

She looked at her boyfriend with a disappointed expression.

"I suddenly remembered I haven't turned off the gas at home, so I won't have lunch; I'm heading back first."
