Chapter 119: The Investigation Team's Unfavorable Campaign

Han Fei had just finished asking.

He immediately realized he had said it wrong.

Because Xu Mo wasn't acting alone.

There were two girls with him.

While the old men hadn't answered yet.

Han Fei quickly changed his words.

"No, no, it's three youngsters, one male, about this tall, and two girls, both very beautiful. Have you seen them?"

Han Fei deliberately emphasized that it was two women and one man, and that the two women were beauties.

Because that was a very important characteristic.

If these people had seen Xu Mo and his companions.

Han Fei described them like that, they would surely recall.

However…

Han Fei's words had just fallen.

The old man who earlier claimed he couldn't do 6‑mo rushed over with a speed faster than thunder.

At that moment, the old man seemed to have become decades younger.

He was radiant, his face flushed, his waist no longer sore, his legs no longer painful, and his ears were no longer deaf.

"Beautiful girls? Where are they?"

Han Fei: "…"

Shen Manni: "…"

Li Chen: "…"

Chen Ke: "…"

Isn't this old man hard of hearing?

When they asked him earlier, he hadn't heard a single word clearly.

All his answers were off the mark.

Who would have thought that hearing "beautiful girls" would make his hearing fail!

You should know, the old man had just been sitting by the doorway.

That spot was more than ten meters away from Han Fei and the others.

From over ten meters away, you could still hear others' conversation. Is this deafness? It's Wind Ear!

Seeing that Han Fei and the others were silent.

The old man continued to ask.

"Where are the beautiful girls?"

"I don't know either." Han Fei said, "We came to look for beautiful… *cough*, no, we came to look for people."

"What kind of people?" one of the old men asked.

Chen Ke also spoke at this moment, continuing the conversation.

"It's three youngsters, one male, with two women by his side, and the two women are quite beautiful."

"Two?" the old man paused, "Whoa… these youngsters!"

Suddenly, another old man slapped his thigh.

"I know who you're looking for. We actually have three youngsters here: two little girls and a little boy; the two girls are indeed quite pretty, and the three often hang out together."

"Where are they? Can you take us there?" Han Fei asked immediately.

Two little girls and a little boy…

The two women are quite beautiful; isn't that Xu Mo, Yang Jingxuan, and Zhou Qiaoqiao?

The old man thought for a moment.

Then he nodded.

He stood up, holding a thermos steeped with goji berries.

"They like to sunbathe in the back yard. Come, I'll take you there; I'm about to get some hot water."

Hearing that, the four exchanged glances.

They thought to themselves that Xu Mo surely couldn't escape this time.

Following the old man for a while, they arrived at the back yard.

Here, Han Fei and the others saw the three 'youngsters' the old man had mentioned.

The three people sunbathing and chatting in the back yard, the youngest among them was probably still in his or her fifties.

Before arriving, Chen Ke had already thought it through.

After seeing Xu Mo, he would immediately use the Qinna Technique he had learned to subdue Xu Mo.

He could also show off a little stunt before the show ends, in front of the Live Broadcast Room's Water Friends.

Who knew that, upon arriving, the 'youngsters' the old man spoke of were three people in their fifties!

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

At that moment, Chen Ke couldn't even maintain his composure and let out a curse.

"What the hell, is this a youngster!?"

"Yes." the old man said solemnly, "A person in their fifties isn't still a youngster? They're already the youngest in the Nursing Home."

What does 'the campaign goes poorly' mean?

The Investigation Team members, having just been outwitted by Xu Mo, left the Cash Transport Vehicle.

Who would have known they'd been set up again by an old man in his seventies!

Of course, that old man probably didn't intend to set them up on purpose.

In the eyes of someone in their seventies, aren't people in their fifties just youngsters?

The Live Broadcast Room was filled with laughter and chatter.

"Hahaha, the Investigation Team is really pitied; being fooled by Xu Mo is one thing, but being fooled by the old man too."

"It's a bit painful to watch, but it's still so funny, hahahaha!"

"Actually, I think the old man didn't intend to mess with them; people in their fifties are indeed young to him. The ninety‑something old man earlier even said that seventy‑year‑olds are just kids."

…

He saw that the four of them had rather odd expressions.

The old man who brought them to the backyard shrugged.

He also realized that these three weren't the people Han Fei and his group were looking for.

But he had no intention of continuing to help Han Fei's group find anyone.

After all, Han Fei's group has nothing to do with him.

The next second, the old man said nothing, lifted his thermos filled with goji berries, and turned to leave.

"Asking these elders is useless; we should ask the Nursing Home staff," Han Fei said.

The remaining three had no objections.

They went straight to look for the Nursing Home staff.

…

Welfare Institute.

Xu Mo, Yang Jingxuan, and Zhou Qiaoqiao had already chosen the rooms they would stay in for the night.

The three rooms were three adjoining houses.

It was still not time for sleep yet.

So, Yang Jingxuan and Zhou Qiaoqiao both came into Xu Mo's room.

"What should we do next?" Zhou Qiaoqiao asked, "Or should we just keep hiding in the Welfare Institute like this?"

Xu Mo shook his head.

"We can't keep hiding forever; the Investigation Team isn't a bunch of slackers, they'll definitely locate this place."

"Huh?" Yang Jingxuan opened her mouth wide, "Doesn't that mean this place isn't safe either?"

Xu Mo wore a calm expression.

"Why panic? They won't come right away; even at the Investigation Team's fastest, they can't pinpoint our location within a day, so at least we're safe today."

After a pause, Xu Mo seemed to recall something and looked at Zhou Qiaoqiao.

"You blacked out the surveillance, right?"

The Investigation Team and the Police can't locate this place in a short time, but there's a condition.

The condition is this.

Just after the bank robbery, Zhou Qiaoqiao took the time while Xu Mo was driving away to black out all the road surveillance.

If the surveillance hadn't been blacked out…

One can imagine the Investigation Team and Police would already be on their way.

"Of course, once it's blacked out it can't be blacked out any further; they absolutely can't find us through surveillance," Zhou Qiaoqiao said, a hint of slyness in her eyes.

It looks like nothing good was done.

It was all learned from Xu Mo.

…

Meanwhile.

Police Station.

In the conference room.

Wang Ju sat with a gloomy expression.

It seemed he was fuming.

What made him angry was the big screen in the conference room playing—Garden Baby!

One should know that the big screen was supposed to show Hangcheng's road surveillance.

Not long ago, Wang Ju had someone retrieve the surveillance from the bank entrance and all surrounding routes.

To find out where Xu Mo had fled.

Who would have thought it would play a bit.

The retrieved road footage turned out to be nothing but Garden Baby, damn it!
