Chapter 153: Is This Club Proper?
He looked at Xu Mo's location on Han Fei's phone.
Chen Ke clenched his teeth.
Xu Mo making him embarrass himself in front of so many viewers in the Live Broadcast Room—he still remembers that perfectly.
He casually turned on the police car's siren and lights.
He slammed the accelerator.
That's the advantage of driving a police car.
As long as the siren and lights are on, you can ignore traffic lights and countless other regulations.
In fact, if the driver is skilled enough, he can treat the police car like an F1 race car with no problem.
It so happens that Chen Ke is a veteran driver.
Even a police car can be driven flamboyantly by him.
Among the four members of the Investigation Team.
Chen Ke belongs to that type of all‑round talent who may not have a single outstanding skill, but knows a bit of everything.
With Chen Ke's superb driving skill and the police car's ability to disregard road rules,
the group's distance to Xu Mo grew ever closer.
Suddenly, Chen Ke noticed that the little red dot on the phone had stopped moving.
"Han Team, Xu Mo seems to have stopped."
Han Fei leaned in for a look and indeed found it to be true.
"He wouldn't have sensed something off and be about to ditch the car and run, would he?" Thinking that, Han Fei grew uneasy and urged Chen Ke, "Can you go any faster?"
Chen Ke gave a wry smile.
"I'd like to go fast too, but this police car can only manage so much; it's too light, and at high speed it can't stay grounded and will start to lift..."
After a pause, Chen Ke added, "But I'll try to go as fast as possible."
However, after a short while,
the few of them saw that the little red dot indicating Xu Mo's location on the phone suddenly moved again.
Moreover, the vehicle's direction changed as well.
It had been heading due east, but suddenly turned around and headed due west.
Seeing this, Li Chen analyzed,
"It's probably not an abandonment; perhaps Xu Mo noticed someone guarding the intersection, turned in time, and tried to slip past the police safely."
"He's quite alert...," Chen Ke sneered.
Xu Mo turned around; he also turned and took another road, preparing to block Xu Mo at the next intersection.
After completing the U‑turn,
Chen Ke slammed the accelerator again, muttering to himself,
"But what does discovering that change? Almost every intersection is guarded by our people; change direction and you still can't escape."
As he spoke, he also brushed his gun at his waist.
Although the gun was loaded with Rubber Bullets, which lack serious lethality, they're sufficient to subdue Xu Mo.
With a gun in hand, the tough aide beside Xu Mo becomes useless!
When they arrived early at the next intersection to wait for Xu Mo,
the Investigation Team members noticed that
that red dot damn stopped moving again.
and it stopped halfway down the road.
as if it had guessed that the Investigation Team would be waiting at the intersection.
They exchanged glances; all four were left a bit bewildered by Xu Mo's tactics.
What's the situation, foresight?
What does stopping halfway mean?
Han Fei thought, could this be like last time?
Xu Mo had set another ambush.
Seeing the four of them, he would smash them with a sudden beating?
At that moment, the squad of officers who had been left behind because Chen Ke drove too fast finally caught up after a frantic chase.
It was only because the Investigation Team had stopped their car.
Otherwise they would have been too audacious to catch up.
Chen Ke was really driving recklessly!
A wild sprint all the way.
The officers were lucky that they couldn't even see the Investigation Team's taillights.
When the four of the Investigation Team parked there, the officers also parked their cars beside them in turn.
"Han Team, what's this?"
Seeing this squad of officers,
Han Fei instantly felt relieved.
Ambush?
Afraid of a chicken!
They have numbers.
Having numbers isn't everything.
Everyone still has a gun.
Even the aide by Xu Mo's side, however skilled, could he still outgun the weapons?
First, the police officers who rushed up laughed and shook their heads.
"It's fine; you haven't caught up yet, so we deliberately stopped to wait for you. Xu Mo is on this road—let's go over now."
Immediately, Han Fei looked at Chen Ke and pointed at the red dot on his phone: "Drive over!"
Chen Ke nodded, then pressed the accelerator to the floor.
The remaining police cars immediately followed.
Team One police cars, in a grand procession, headed toward the red‑dot location marked on Han Fei's phone.
At this moment, the sky was already darkening.
Night fell, meaning Hangcheng's nightlife had begun.
The red Cayenne driven by Xu Mo was parked at a spot in front of a club.
The club was called "Royal No. 1".
At first glance, it looked pretty flashy.
But the problem was that the club's sign's light tube was faulty.
Of the four characters "Royal No. 1", only the character "Royal" remained lit.
Whenever night fell and the club opened, from a distance its sign looked like it displayed only a single character—'Royal'!
The four members of the Investigation Team followed the coordinates and arrived at the club's entrance.
Following them all the way were also a team of police officers.
The group stared at the club's sign.
Their expressions were somewhat uneasy.
This club... doesn't look very respectable!
The broken light tube—was it due to lack of money or intentional?
Of course, they came this time with the purpose of capturing Xu Mo.
So they didn't pay much attention to the club.
Instead, they immediately swept around the entrance.
Seeing the red Cayenne with license plate Zhe A. JB35M parked at the entrance.
Everyone thought they'd come to the right place.
The car is here, so Xu Mo must be here too.
Without a word, they went inside.
They had no interest in the club.
But the Water Friends were very interested.
"666666, this club name isn't bad! Anyone who's been here? Is it a legit club?"
"Isn't that obvious? Just looking at the sign you know it's not a legit club—how can a club with a single 'Royal' hanging at the entrance be respectable?"
"I agree with the above, the hint is so obvious, even if it were legit it wouldn't be legit at all!"
"The name is a misstep—calling it 'Huang Family No. 1'—it should be 'Huang Family No. 1', that would make the hint even clearer."
"..."
Han Fei led the way into the club.
At the reception, Han Fei first, as usual, stated his identity.
Before Han Fei could ask any questions, the receptionist stammered.
"Comrade police, we are very legitimate here, absolutely no illegal or disorderly activities!"
Han Fei: "..."
If he weren't in a hurry to capture Xu Mo now, he would definitely investigate the club thoroughly.
This place claims to be legitimate, but that's absurd!
In irritation, he flashed the portrait of Xu Mo after Disguise, drawn by the police sketch artist, to the receptionist.
"Putting that aside, where is this person? Our police need to find him to get some information."
Hearing that, the receptionist immediately let out a sigh of relief.
"That guest just arrived a short while ago; he's in Room 888. Let me have a security guard take you there."
Saying that, the receptionist called over a security guard: "Take the police comrades to Room 888."
While speaking, he also gave him a sidelong glance.
"Take the elevator here; Room 888 is upstairs," the guard said.
The guard led Han Fei's party, and they just stepped into the elevator.
The receptionist, right after, pulled out a walkie‑talkie: "Tell the guests to be careful, the cops are here!"
Inside the elevator.
From the guard's walkie‑talkie came the receptionist's voice: "Tell the guests to be careful, the cops are here!"
Guard: "..."
Damn!
Forgot to turn off the walkie‑talkie!
