Chapter 146: Xu Mo: I Don't Hold Grudges, I Repay On the Spot

"Calling Yaoyao Spirit for you."

Shen Manni: "…"

Can it still be like this?

If you had mentioned earlier that the voice assistant had this function, would she even bother to expend so much effort to wake Han Fei?

Just using the voice assistant would solve it!

Xu Mo must have seen through Shen Manni's emotions.

Han Fei gave a wry smile and comforted her: "It's fine, as a lesbian, not being familiar with electronics is perfectly normal."

In the meantime, Xiao Ai had already helped connect Yaoyao Spirit.

To avoid wasting time, Han Fei didn't even wait for the operator to speak and spoke first.

"Hello, I want to report to the police, we… we have been kidnapped.", after saying this, Han Fei looked as if he had aged ten years, his expression very listless.

"…"

Because he had experience in criminal investigation.

Han Fei could be said to be very clear about the police's methods.

After identifying himself and briefly describing the situation, the other side promptly dispatched officers.

And they also brought a portrait artist.

At that moment, Chen Ke, who had been knocked out earliest, also woke up.

Just upon waking, he winced from the pain of the previously struck area and inhaled sharply: "Sss…"

Much like Han Fei.

Chen Ke also felt very embarrassed.

After all, before entering the villa, he had sworn that Li Jiaxin would at most use Women's Self-Defense.

But the result…

When he engaged with Li Jiaxin, he was instantly knocked down.

Is this damn Women's Self-Defense?

Hm?

Whose Women's Self-Defense is this fierce??

He even felt that, not to mention himself, even if Tang Sanzang brought his three disciples here, each would have to take two big slaps before they could leave.

The four master and disciples arrived at Yunqi Rose Garden in the morning and could reach the Western Paradise by afternoon.

Even his mother's eighty‑one hardships could be waived!

Han Fei and Chen Ke exchanged a glance.

Both remained silent, their faces showing wry smiles.

What a sin!

Originally thought that the Program Crew added these helpers for Xu Mo intentionally to lower the difficulty for them.

Who would have thought it was not about lowering difficulty at all.

On the contrary, it invisibly increased the difficulty of catching Xu Mo.

Xu Mo's new helpers' combat power is just a bit too terrifying!

…

Soon, the police arrived.

The lock‑picking expert opened the villa's door.

The officers walked in.

It is worth mentioning that, upon learning of this, Wang Ju also came with the officers.

As soon as he entered, he immediately went to Han Fei's side.

"Lao Han, what's… what's going on?"

Han Fei gave a wry smile.

Why does Lao Wang always bring up the same old thing?

After a two‑second silence, Han Fei replied: "... An accident, a small accident occurred."

While speaking, the officers brought by Wang Ju had already stepped forward and untied the four.

"Has the portrait artist arrived?", Shen Manni asked.

"He's here.", Wang Ju gestured to one of the officers: "This is the portrait artist from our bureau; you just tell him what to draw."

Shen Manni didn't waste time and first thanked Wang Ju.

Then, recalling Xu Mo's appearance after Disguise in her mind, she directly addressed the portrait artist.

"I say, draw a young man, round face, slightly flat nose, small eyes, chin..."

Shen Manni described while the portrait artist painted.

From time to time, Shen Manni would correct parts that didn't look right and have him adjust them.

After ten minutes, the first sketch emerged.

This sketch is Xu Mo's appearance after Disguise.

"Is this right?", the portrait artist asked.

Shen Manni nodded.

"Yes, it's more or less correct; Xu Mo has disguised himself as this."

Hearing this, Han Fei glanced at Wang Ju.

The latter immediately understood.

He turned to a nearby police officer and said, "Give the order: use this portrait to find the person, and set the search area to the Exhibition Event and the surrounding one‑kilometer zone."

Immediately after, Shen Manni continued describing to the portrait artist the disguised appearances of Xu Mo's several helpers.

Each time a portrait was drawn, Wang Ju would order people to use that portrait to locate the target.

……

Exhibition Event.

Xu Mo used a single instant‑noodle, and in a few swift moves opened the safe in the Monitoring Room.

Inside, placed there, was unmistakably a Blue Sapphire.

Its appearance was also similar to the one he had just stolen from the Display Cabinet.

"It really is here…," Xu Mo smiled.

He placed the True Gem into System Space, then prepared to leave.

After turning and walking out a few steps,

Xu Mo suddenly stopped.

Enduring a moment brings calm, but stepping back only makes him more angry!

Damn it, today I almost got played.

If he hadn't happened to overhear a few people's conversation and learn that the gem he took was problematic, they might have actually fooled him.

Xu Mo's greatest virtue is that he doesn't hold grudges.

If there's any grievance, he reports it on the spot.

He turned and glanced at the safe in the Monitoring Room.

Xu Mo decided to cause a little mischief…

After tinkering a bit, he finally left the Monitoring Room satisfied, preparing to depart the Exhibition Event.

Outside the Exhibition Hall.

Gao Liming always felt something was off.

Moreover, the uneasy feeling in his heart grew stronger.

The Exhibition Event's fire‑safety measures were clearly thorough.

They periodically inspected and eliminated safety hazards, so a sudden fire should be impossible.

Moreover, if a fire had triggered the power‑cut protection, the alarm should have sounded!

There's no reason for only the power cut to trigger emergency lighting.

Too many problems.

Suddenly, a silhouette appeared in Gao Liming's mind.

The back of the man who, while everyone evacuated orderly, ran back to the Restroom to fetch his phone.

"That's not right… the person who just ran to the Restroom for a phone? It's been so long; after this much time they should have emerged. That person is suspicious!" Gao Liming already suspected Xu Mo.

"What's so strange about that?" Zhang Wenrui replied dismissively, "They were trapped inside because of the fire."

As soon as the words fell, Gao Liming immediately retorted.

"There's no fire at all; we've been out for ages. Did you see any flames? Smell any burnt odor? I doubt there was any fire!"

Gao Liming knew those two rich heirs were unreliable.

They came to the program just to play around and flaunt wealth.

Frankly, they wanted to boost their fame through the show.

So they could more easily go out and pick up girls later.

The only person he could now rely on was Wang Hao.

He paused, then turned to Wang Hao: "Brother Hao, bring two security guards and come in with me to check; I guarantee that person definitely has a problem!"

Wang Hao thought for a moment, then nodded.

He gestured for a few security guards.

Preparing to go in with Gao Liming to take a look.

But at that moment,

a woman in the crowd suddenly spoke.

"You can't go in! We still don't know what's inside, how dangerous it is. No matter what the situation inside, professionals must handle it. If you go in now, when the Rescue Team arrives they'll have to save you first—won't that just add trouble for the rescuers?"

The Onlookers, hearing this,

started echoing it.

"Exactly, you can't go in. We've been told there's a fire inside; why would so many of you go in?"

"If you go in and get trapped, won't that just cause trouble for the Rescue Team? They'll have to fight the fire and rescue you!"

"Yeah, just wait calmly for the Rescue Team. Don't go in and cause trouble; the rescuers work hard."
