Chapter 361: What the Hell Is This a Small Fishing Boat?

~6 min read 1,165 words

Their boldness left the officers in charge of interrogating them stunned in an instant.

I've seen people voluntarily confess, but never anyone so eager to do so!

They hadn't even begun questioning the other members of the crime gang, yet these two voluntarily turned themselves in!

Not only did they name other accomplices, they also explained the Money Laundering Gang's operating model…

The speed of their confession was lightning fast!

Their attitude was unusually proactive!

Stabbing their own comrades in the back was done without any hesitation!

Because of their proactive confession, the Police quickly obtained the identity information of the gang's other two core members.

In addition, they named many individuals or groups who had dealt with their Money Laundering Gang.

Those people and the gang's activities were all illegal; their money was not earned legitimately, but dirty black money, which is why it needed laundering.

That night, the city Police, based on the information the two provided, launched an unprecedented massive raid—a citywide Joint Grand Operation.

In a single night, the Money Laundering Gang and all the individuals and groups that had transacted with it, big or small, were caught in one sweep.

Because the arrests involved so many suspects and gangs, almost every officer in the city was mobilized, essentially turning it into a Joint Grand Operation.

The operation continued until after midnight, finally ending a little after two o'clock.

In this operation, the Police captured dozens of crime gangs of various sizes, as well as a good number of individual offenders.

Including the earlier batch of arrests, the total number of people involved in this case reached a staggering 327!

As those people were apprehended, a notification sound rang in Xu Mo's mind.

"You have successfully struck down several crime gangs and their members, earning a reward—one 120,000‑ton class Nuclear‑powered Small Fishing Boat!"

Xu Mo: "???"

"How much?"

"120,000 tons!?"

"What the hell is this, a Small Fishing Boat!?"

"120,000 tons?? And Nuclear Power?"

"Whose Small Fishing Boat is 120,000 tons!"

"Whose Small Fishing Boat is Nuclear‑powered!?"

"Isn't this a freaking Aircraft Carrier! A Nuclear‑powered Aircraft Carrier! That's a sea‑dominant class vessel!"

Xu Mo was completely stunned.

He expected the reward to be generous, but he didn't anticipate it being this abundant.

"Giving a full‑size Aircraft Carrier—can that even work!?"

Cars, houses, or other abilities could be put to immediate use.

"But an Aircraft Carrier… how the hell do you use it? Modify it into a yacht plus and sail out to play?"

"This thing is a bit too over the top, isn't it!"

Because the reward was so massive, the system didn't immediately manifest the 120,000‑ton 'Small Fishing Boat'; instead it stored it temporarily, allowing the host Xu Mo to materialize it into the real world at any time.

"Xu Mo, Xu Mo... what's wrong? Stunned?" Chen Ke patted the day‑dreaming Xu Mo, then remarked, "Does it feel a bit unbelievable? Honestly, I'm a little dazed too—this operation caught over three hundred people... I've never handled a case with so many suspects in my career."

I am a bit dazed, but not because we caught over three hundred people; you might not believe it, but I freaking have an Aircraft Carrier now! Do you know about Aircraft Carriers? Xu Mo opened his mouth, but couldn't get the words out, holding back his excitement and nodding, "Hmm... I've seen something like this before, but this is still my first time."

Seeing Xu Mo still at a loss, Chen Ke patted his shoulder, speaking like a seasoned veteran.

"I understand! After all, you're a rookie; seeing such a grand scene can make you a bit flustered and confused. It's okay, you'll get better with time!"

……

The next day.

Xu Mo received a call from Han Fei.

Even over the phone, Xu Mo could hear Han Fei's cheerful and excited tone.

"I heard you helped the Fu Sheng police solve a case? Caught over three hundred people?"

This time Xu Mo and Chen Ke really gave Han Fei a long face— a big long face!

Early this morning, Han Fei received a call from the Yangcheng Public Security Bureau.

At first Han Fei was still confused—he hadn't done anything, so why were the superiors calling?

But soon, the superiors explained that the call was about Xu Mo and Chen Ke; earlier, the Yangcheng Public Security Bureau had received a call from the Fu Sheng Public Security Bureau… learning about last night's Joint Grand Operation.

Thus, after ending the conversation with the Fu Sheng bureau, the Yangcheng bureau immediately called Han Fei, proposing to reward Xu Mo and Chen Ke.

If it weren't for that call, Han Fei wouldn't even have known that Xu Mo and Chen Ke had caused such a stir in Fu Sheng.

With Xu Mo and Han Fei's assistance, the local police captured all sorts of illegal gangs and individuals in one night, totaling over three hundred people!

Know that most officers would never catch that many law‑breaking individuals in an entire career.

Moreover, those arrested weren't petty thieves; they were involved in far more serious crimes, and among the captured gangs, there were several Scam Gangs that gave the police a huge headache.

Xu Mo was still lost in the thrill of owning an Aircraft Carrier, so he wasn't very focused on the fact that over three hundred people were caught: "Huh? Yeah, yeah, over three hundred were caught."

"You've earned Merit; this time you really made us look good!" Before Xu Mo could get excited, Han Fei burst out: "The higher‑ups already called me, they want to reward you and Chen Ke. You two really gave our police bureau a great face! People from other provinces called to praise…"

"What reward?" Xu Mo asked instinctively.

"Of course it's a promotion; I reckon you might jump straight to Team Leader, and then you'll be just like me," Han Fei guessed.

He, as the Criminal Investigation Team Leader, earned the position by repeatedly solving major cases with outstanding ability.

Xu Mo, by assisting local officers in capturing so many headache‑inducing crime gangs and over three hundred people at once, achieved a Great Merit.

Just looking at his résumé, a promotion to the same rank as Han Fei isn't impossible; after all, the police bureau values personal ability.

"Team Leader…" Xu Mo sounded distracted. "By the way, Han Team, what if I happen to find a Nuclear‑powered Aircraft Carrier and turn it in?"

Han Fei: "???"

What nonsense are you spouting first thing in the morning?

Hand over a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier? And you even picked it up by accident?

This damn thing is something you can just pick up?!

Even a conventional aircraft carrier is a big deal, let alone a nuclear-powered one.

Xu Mo probably hasn't woken up yet!

"I'm talking serious business, don't spout nonsense... What aircraft carrier, what not aircraft carrier—you think an aircraft carrier is something you can just pick up?", Han Fei said helplessly.
