Chapter 211: Your Police Badge Wasn't Snatched, Right?

~7 min read 1,340 words

Damn, I just peeked into the neighboring Live Broadcast Room, and Xu Mo was right—there really is a group of people right now in World City Pedestrian Street!

The police spent hours laboriously combing through the surveillance to get a clue, and Xu Mo found it in just a few minutes?

What the hell is this situation? Xu Mo really knows where the rest are?

He couldn't have actually deduced something from the footage, could he?

Impossible—his Sheer Cliff claim is a bluff; it must be a blind cat hitting a dead mouse. One person watching dozens of feeds, and he even damn fast‑forwarded it to thirty‑two times speed—could he possibly keep up?

Just because you can't doesn't mean others can't. Anyway, Xu Mo pinpointed the locations of the other 'Escapees'; who knows, maybe he truly has the skill of being in many places at once.

……

"You only watched the surveillance for a short while and already know where they're hiding?" Zhou Qiaoqiao said with an expression of disbelief.

"What, don't believe it?" Xu Mo smiled, "Alright, you'll see soon enough."

Having said that, he led the four of them out of the park.

Compared with the hideouts of the other contestants, World City Pedestrian Street is the closest to the small park where Xu Mo and the others are now.

Even so, the two places are still two or three kilometers apart.

Naturally, Xu Mo had no intention of walking there.

He needed to find a vehicle for transport.

……

At the park entrance.

Xu Mo took out the Hangcheng police badge he had previously snatched and stood there with it.

He was waiting for a fated person.

Xu Mo's luck was still fairly good.

He'd waited less than a minute.

He happened to run into a fated person who was driving a car for a park outing.

Without waiting for the girl to park, Xu Mo stepped forward.

He flashed the Police Badge and got straight to the point.

"I'm a police officer, I'm currently apprehending an Escapee and need to temporarily requisition your car."

As he spoke, he opened the car door.

It seemed he wasn't negotiating at all, but merely notifying—your car has been requisitioned by me.

But the next second, something Xu Mo didn't expect happened.

The girl in the car stared blankly at Xu Mo.

"I recognize you, Xu Mo, right? I've watched your Live Broadcast; that Police Badge of yours... wasn't it snatched? What kind of officer are you..."

Xu Mo: "……"

After being exposed on the spot, Xu Mo's motion of opening the car door paused.

It was oddly awkward.

Come to think of it, he's impersonated a police officer many times before.

This was the first time he's been unmasked face‑to‑face!

Who would have thought this unlucky guy would run into someone who had watched his livestream?

The Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room saw this scene and each of them laughed.

"Hahahahaha, you liked impersonating a police officer, got busted, huh!"

"I'm dying of laughter, Xu Mo is addicted to pretending to be a police officer, and now he's requisitioned someone's car—how awkward!"

"Even through the screen I can feel the awkwardness, Xu Mo, you should move to another planet, hahaha."

……

The girl hadn't just watched Xu Mo's livestream.

She was also a fan of Xu Mo.

If you asked to borrow Xu Mo's car, she'd be very willing.

The next second, she promptly got out of the car, fully cooperative.

"You can borrow the car, no problem... but I want to take a photo with you."

Having said that, without waiting for Xu Mo's reply, she immediately took out her phone and brought it close to him.

She switched to the front camera and—'click click'—snapped several shots in rapid succession.

She then began admiring the photos, and for a moment her mouth curved up a few degrees.

After a quick edit of the picture,

She immediately posted those photos with Xu Mo onto a short video platform.

The caption with the photo read—xdm, I just 'solo‑killed' Xu Mo offline!

……

Jiangcheng Police Bureau.

At this moment, the 'Sky Eye Operation' program was a huge hit.

Anything related to the show that got posted online was bound to go viral.

The girl's few photos with Xu Mo, just uploaded to the short‑video app, quickly went viral.

In fact, most people who had downloaded the short‑video app received a text notification on their phones.

Han Fei was no exception.

During work hours, he wouldn't voluntarily browse short videos.

But this notification instantly piqued his interest.

Because this is related to Xu Mo.

Han Fei immediately clicked the text notification that popped up on the short‑video website.

The phone automatically redirected to the short‑video app's interface.

Playing were the few photos that the girl, whose car Xu Mo had just temporarily requisitioned, had posted not long ago.

Looking at the photos, Han Fei was a bit stunned.

The background of the photos is clearly not Sakura Country!

Han Fei noticed a small detail.

In the photo, the license plate of the car a short distance behind the two people begins with "Jiang a".

Isn't that damn Jiangcheng?

Has Xu Mo come to Jiangcheng?

All this time, Han Fei has believed that Xu Mo is still hiding in Sakura Country.

Because the Program Crew did not disclose Xu Mo's location to the Investigation Team.

Moreover, Han Fei also could not find the bank‑card transaction record that Xu Mo's party used to purchase tickets.

Originally, he was thinking that after capturing those "Escapees" in Jiangcheng, he would go to Sakura Country to arrest people.

Now it seems that won't be necessary!

Of course, whether Xu Mo is actually in Jiangcheng still needs to be confirmed.

Han Fei opened the short‑video author's homepage.

The homepage displayed the girl's WeChat ID.

Following the WeChat ID, Han Fei also found the girl's phone number.

Then, using a landline from the Police Station, he called her.

"Hello, I'm an officer. May I ask whether the photos you uploaded on the short‑video app are genuine? When did you take them?"

Having watched the live stream, the girl could recognize Han Fei's voice.

"Han Team!? My god, what luck have I had today—first I ran into Xu Mo, and now you call me. So… could you repeat what you just said? I'll record it as material!"

Han Fei: "…"

He did not do as the girl suggested.

Because from the girl's words, he had already obtained the answer he wanted.

Han Fei can confirm that Xu Mo is now in Jiangcheng!

"Where did you meet Xu Mo today? When did you meet him?" Han Fei asked.

The girl thought for a moment: "I met him in the forest park. I'm not sure of the exact time; I wasn't paying attention then. I'd guess it was about ten to twenty minutes ago, certainly no more than half an hour."

"Where did he go?" Han Fei asked again.

"I didn't notice; I was busy editing the photos. I don't know when he drove my car away."

"He drove away your car?" Han Fei seized the key point: "What's the license plate number?"

He then added.

"I'm not cheating; I just happened to come across this short‑video that could give a clue. You didn't peek at my screen to tell me Xu Mo's location; you're only providing some information you know. Giving me the license plate isn't cheating… Moreover, even if you didn't say it, I could spend a little time and still find out the plate number."

Hearing this, the girl thought it reasonable; it indeed isn't cheating, just a normal provision of clues to the police.

And even if she didn't speak, the Police could trace the license plate from her phone number.

She simply gave her plate number outright: "Jiang097."

"Thank you for cooperating," Han Fei said with a smile.

Then he turned to the nearby officer: "Jiang097, check where the car with that plate is now!"
