Chapter 295: This Reward—System, Are You Serious?

~7 min read 1,234 words

What Li Yuanliang reported is basically consistent with the situation Han Fei and his team have grasped, with no major discrepancies.

He went out for a while after finishing his report.

Not even two minutes later, he returned.

Re‑entering the Interrogation Room, Han Fei now held several sheets of paper, printed with the entire dialogue between Li Yuanliang and Han Fei just now.

"This is your Confession Statement; check if there's any problem, and if not, sign it," Han Fei handed the statement to Li Yuanliang.

The latter glanced at it briefly and said, "No problem."

Then he took the pen from Han Fei's hand and signed his name in the signature field.

"You have successfully captured the Escapee and earned a reward— a Stock Market Trend Chart for the next month!"

Whoa, this reward is great!

The Stock Market Trend Chart for the next month… isn't that a money‑printing machine? Xu Mo's eyes lit up instantly.

Speculating in stocks is undoubtedly very profitable.

Even those who haven't fully mastered the market, but only have a rough idea, can still make money through stock trading.

Moreover, the System Reward given to Xu Mo is still the Stock Market Trend Chart for the next month?

With this reward, Xu Mo can clearly know, within the next month, which stocks will rise, which will fall, and the magnitude of each movement.

As long as he picks a Speculative Stock and goes all‑in… making money would be as easy as drinking water? It could even be faster than a money‑printing machine!

The case at hand has just been resolved.

For the next half‑day, there should be nothing else, so Xu Mo plans to use this time to study the market, then buy stocks and make money!

At this moment, Xu Mo even begins to fantasize about the scenes of him rampaging through the market.

…

As Xu Mo had thought, after finishing the case, he became idle.

Back at his workstation, Xu Mo prepares to examine the Stock Market Trend Chart for the next month and decide which stock to invest in.

Although until now Xu Mo has never traded stocks; he is completely clueless, a total novice.

But does that pose a problem?

No problem!

With the System Reward, he doesn't need to understand any of this.

As long as he knows how to buy and sell, he can earn big money.

Xu Mo's account holds several tens of millions in deposits.

With proper operation, doubling his money in a month is no issue.

If he can catch a few Speculative Stocks… turning the principal tenfold isn't impossible!

"Check Reward!" Xu Mo mutters to himself.

The next second, his phone vibrated once.

Opening the phone, he saw the System had sent the Stock Market Trend Chart for the next month.

Before looking at the chart, Xu Mo still harbored grand ambitions to dominate the market.

But after seeing it, he was instantly stunned.

Even though Xu Mo knows little about stocks, he knows basic facts, such as green indicating a decline—the color that appears when prices fall.

And what Xu Mo sees now is green, vast swaths of green.

Almost every stock is emitting green light…

So Xu Mo's phone is also glowing green, casting a green‑tinged hue on his face.

What the hell is this thing?

System, are you serious? Come out, let's talk! Xu Mo feels a bit chest‑tight.

This reward is indeed great; its goodness lies in… he … *!

In the next month, most stock prices keep falling; not to mention Speculative Stocks, few can even hold their price without dropping.

"Xu Mo, why's your face all green? What are you looking at?" Wang Dachuan leaned over curiously and glanced, "What am I supposed to be doing? I'm looking at stocks… the green glow is normal."

Xu Mo: "……"

The next second, he turned off his phone and exclaimed, "How unlucky!"

It seems the idea of making a quick buck can be put aside for now!

There was no work in the afternoon, so Xu Mo spent almost the whole afternoon goofing off.

And that's how it went until quitting time.

…

As soon as he reached his doorstep, before even entering, Zhou Qiaoqiao, An Youyi, Yang Jingxuan, and Li Jiaxin burst out from the neighboring villa.

They had been waiting for Xu Mo all day, eager for gossip when he returned.

Because today they saw many police officers in the community; in the morning they also saw a crowd gathered at the entrance of the villa behind them.

Of course, they didn't go to watch the scene, so they don't know exactly what happened; otherwise they wouldn't need to gossip with Xu Mo.

"Why are there police in our community today? Did something happen?"

"Someone died in the early hours; it's been clarified as murder," Xu Mo said lightly. "Did you see the building behind? The deceased lived there."

The previous second, the four were still gossiping with curious faces.

Now they're all frightened, their terrified eyes like a few scared white rabbits.

"There's a dead person there?"

"It was murder… have they caught the culprit?"

"That's terrifying—shouldn't security be strict in such a high‑end villa area? How did the murderer get in?"

The guard is way too careless! How could he just let a bad guy in!

Actually it wasn't that the guard was careless and let the bad guy in; the murderer was the guard himself… but Xu Mo thought better not to scare them with that, so he simply didn't bring it up: "It's fine, the murderer has already been caught."

Xu Mo glanced at Li Jiaxin.

For a moment, he couldn't understand what they were afraid of.

With a master like this around, there's absolutely no reason to be scared!

Ordinary people could never even get close to her.

Naturally, Xu Mo isn't an ordinary person; he should be able to enter Li Jiaxin's body…

"The murderer has been caught…," Zhou Qiaoqiao patted her chest, let out a deep sigh, "That's good."

Hearing that the murderer had already been caught, she visibly relaxed a bit.

But the next second, Yang Jingxuan stared at the villa behind them.

"I heard that houses where someone died become haunted. Our place is that close to it; do you think the ghost in the villa behind us might come over to our place in the middle of the night?"

Zhou Qiaoqiao: "???"

An Youyi: "???"

Li Jiaxin: "???"

Yang Jingxuan's words made the three who had just relaxed become scared again, their skin prickling all over.

Compared to humans, a ghost is naturally far more terrifying.

Sneaking over at midnight and the like… just thinking about it sends chills down one's spine.

"That stuff is all fake, nothing to be afraid of," Xu Mo said with a sigh.

"You're a big man, full of yang energy, so of course you're not scared. The four of us girls living together have not a hint of yang, we're all yin, which really attracts ghosts… Ugh, the more I think about it, the scarier I get; I don't even dare to sleep tonight."

Hearing that, Xu Mo shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself, "Where did these ghosts even come from?"

Then, jokingly, he said, "If you're really scared and can't sleep alone, you can come to me; at worst I'll suffer a little!"
