Chapter 257: He Doesn

~7 min read 1,238 words

Xu Mo's words had just finished.

The two A San were stunned.

He had just been immersed in joy, his mind a bit fuzzy.

He was only thinking about guarding against these three people stealing money.

He even tried to use calling the police to intimidate the other side not to act rashly.

He hadn't noticed that the three in front of him were officers, arriving in a police car!

And from Xu Mo's perspective, they came here to arrest the two of them.

That was awkward.

The next second.

Both A San instinctively tossed the money in their hands onto their partners.

They then started to shift the blame.

Attempting to dump all the charges onto their partners.

"This has nothing to do with me; he forced me!"

"He forced me to dig the ATM with him!"

Xu Mo: "..."

"Fine, let's go to the Police Station and tell them."

Hearing that, the two A San realized the matter couldn't be brushed off so easily.

So without a word, they dropped the money, bolted, and ran out in opposite directions.

They were both swift, like rabbits, disappearing a short distance in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Xu Mo and the other two officers sprang into action.

They each chased after the two different directions.

The two officers, in perfect sync, both chose to pursue the one on the left, while Xu Mo took charge of the one on the right.

Xu Mo's speed was considerably faster than that A San's.

So the A San he was after was caught after only a couple of steps and pinned to the ground.

Xu Mo took out the Handcuffs he had just received from the precinct, cuffed the A San's hands behind his back, and dragged him toward the police car.

He didn't intend to help.

The reason was that it wasn't needed; the A San was fast, but the two officers weren't amateurs—they could certainly catch him, so Xu Mo had no need to intervene and could just wait calmly.

Bored, he simply watched the two officers chase while lighting a cigarette.

On the other side.

The two officers were still pursuing the fleeing A San.

"Stop! Still running… I wonder where you think you can go today!"

…

Two minutes later.

With their combined blockade, they finally managed to catch that A San.

One officer took out Handcuffs and cuffed the A San.

After cuffing him, one officer let out a heavy sigh and said, "Go help Xu Mo; he alone should be enough to catch the other A San."

"Alright, let's go!"

But as soon as he turned his head,

the two officers were stunned.

They saw Xu Mo leaning against the police car, smoking.

As for that A San, Xu Mo had already captured him, handcuffed, and left him beside the police car!

Seeing the two had also captured the A San, Xu Mo snuffed out his cigarette and casually tossed the extinguished butt into the nearby trash can.

He then opened the car door and shoved the captured A San into the vehicle.

"I've already loaded the money from the ATM into the car; what about the excavator and the ATM? Should we get someone to tow them away?"

The two officers exchanged a glance, feeling a bit awkward.

It took them that long to catch one person together.

Meanwhile, Xu Mo only had to catch one person himself.

And it seemed…

Xu Mo seemed to have had the captive for a while already.

He even still had time to load the money the two A San had taken from the ATM into the car, and still smoked a damn cigarette!

So their speed was still slower than this rookie Xu Mo's?

Where does that leave their seniority and reputation?

After a few seconds of staring blankly,

one officer spoke.

"Just bring the people and the money back; take the excavator's key first. Leave the excavator and the ATM here; arrange for someone to tow them away. Those two big pieces won't be moved any time soon, so don't worry."

…

On the way back to the Police Station.

"Xu Mo, your physical ability's good—have you trained? Were you a sports student back in school?"

These two officers have taken part in many capture operations.

So they know the speed at which the criminals flee.

Because they're afraid of being caught, the criminals' adrenaline spikes sharply, and they run at a breakneck speed, making them very hard to catch.

Xu Mo can catch people before them, so he must have practiced athletics.

Otherwise it wouldn't make sense.

"No, what's there to train?"

The officer: "..."

An ordinary person who hasn't deliberately trained being faster than these officers who regularly carry out arrests… that's unscientific!

If this gets out, where will these officers stick their faces?

Thinking that, the two silently made up their minds.

After returning this time, they'll have to intensify their practice.

At least they can't lose to Xu Mo!

You should know that not long ago they were still debating Xu Mo's abilities, considering him a vase.

But when they saw it… Xu Mo's speed was actually faster than theirs!?

How can that be?

If the universally acknowledged vase is stronger than the two of them, what does that make them? Useless?

Xu Mo, with a hint of doubt, chatted briefly with the two captured A San.

He mainly wanted to interview these two bewildered San Ge, to find out what mindset led them to dig up an ATM machine.

The two A San cooperated.

They recounted everything in detail.

"No money, so we have to do it. Working a job is impossible… messing with an ATM gets money fast."

Xu Mo continued to ask.

"No money, then where did the excavator come from? This thing isn't cheap; the 240,000 in the ATM isn't enough for one excavator. The excavator was stolen by you, right?"

Hearing that, A San fell selectively silent.

That excavator was indeed stolen.

How could the two afford to buy an excavator?

If it wasn't stolen, how else could it have come?

But they didn't intend to tell the truth.

After all, admitting it would add another charge!

Digging the ATM is enough for them to serve some time, but stealing an excavator—how long the hell do they have to stay in there!?

Although the two A San didn't answer.

But Xu Mo could roughly guess from their expressions: "Looks like it was stolen, just come clean. Don't wait for us to investigate; what we uncover and what you confess are two different matters, completely different in nature…"

"..."

The dialogue between Xu Mo and the two A San.

The officer didn't understand a single word.

At this moment, both felt something odd inside.

From Xu Mo's completely barrier‑free communication with the two A San.

Xu Mo is clearly highly proficient in Hindi.

Besides that, through the Sky Eye Operation program, they learned Xu Mo is proficient in Sakura language and West Eight Language.

That makes three foreign languages, plus his native tongue, so Xu Mo is proficient in at least four languages.

Xu Mo isn't simple; he doesn't seem to be a vase… he actually has something!

Because of this operation, the two's view of Xu Mo has begun to shift slightly.

At least they no longer think Xu Mo is a completely useless vase.
