Chapter 503: Real Men Never Look Back at Explosions

"Han Team, the one ahead in jeans is the Chen Wu we're after!"

The two Chen brothers just came out of that old self‑built house, and the police officer recognized Chen Wu, who was wearing jeans and a white short‑sleeve shirt.

This is the suspect they queried through Tianyan Search at the Police Station not long ago!

"Stop!"

"Don't run!"

The police officers were still two to three hundred meters away from the two, and even Xu Mo and Chen Ke, the more physically fit officers, couldn't catch up with them in a short time.

Moreover, their car was parked less than twenty meters to the right of the self‑built house, and the two got into the vehicle after only a couple of steps.

Seeing the Chen brothers get into the car, the first thought that sprang to the officers' minds was, "It's over, those two are escaping."

The police car was parked beside the Chadaokou off‑ramp off the highway, about a thousand meters away, so turning around and driving to catch up with them now was unrealistic.

As for sprinting on foot to overtake the suspect's small cargo van, that was even more unrealistic.

How could a person possibly outrun a vehicle? Not to mention they were still hundreds of meters behind the suspect's car.

Yet just as the officers' morale sank to rock bottom, a turning point occurred.

After the Chen brothers got into the car, they didn't drive off immediately; they stalled in place for a moment, giving the officers a glimmer of hope.

Taking advantage of the brief window before the car moved, the officers surged forward, narrowing the gap again.

But what they didn't expect happened at that very moment.

Suddenly, the driver's door of the small cargo van swung open; the Guangtou Chen Wen leapt out, and after landing he ran straight toward the old self‑built house.

"What's this kid doing?" Han Fei, seeing the abnormal move, immediately felt something was wrong: "He can't be trying to go inside to take hostages, can he?"

Han Fei could never have imagined that Chen Wen turned and ran into the house not to take hostages or negotiate with the police, but to delete the browsing history on his computer…

Meanwhile, Chen Wu, who had been left in the car by Chen Wen, had slipped from the passenger seat to the driver's seat, gripped the steering wheel with both hands, and slammed the accelerator.

Although he'd never driven a large vehicle, he could drive a sedan; big or small, they're both cars, so the operating theory shouldn't differ much. In any case, he wouldn't stay in the vehicle waiting to be caught.

With a clatter of "clang‑clang", the small cargo van lurched forward.

"Damn… why is this junk car so hard to drive, the steering wheel had to turn three circles before the tires budged…," Chen Wu cursed, having underestimated the difficulty of handling such a large vehicle and overestimated his own skill.

Having only ever driven a sedan, he truly couldn't handle a vehicle of this size.

"What's going on?" Han Fei, seeing the scene, was even more bewildered.

Did the two suspects turn on each other at the crucial moment? Or… did this kid treat his partner as a sacrificial pawn?

Smart as he was, he almost instantly grasped the reason; in Han Fei's view, Chen Wu had lied to Chen Wen, telling him to get out and take hostages as a life‑saving token, Chen Wen believed him, and the moment he stepped out, Chen Wu drove off.

Of course, Han Fei didn't dwell on it; catching the suspect was what mattered now.

The driver was hard to chase—he couldn't outrun a car—but the one who got out and ran into the house was his target; even Heavenly King Old Master arriving couldn't save him!

Among the police, the fittest Xu Mo and Chen Ke were at the front, and they were the first two to reach the dilapidated self‑built house.

After a quick look, the first floor was empty, so they climbed the stairs to the second floor.

There, the Guangtou Chen Wen sat beside a computer, holding a mouse and doing something unknown.

In the corner of the room was a little boy bound with thick ropes, the same boy who had mysteriously vanished in the mall.

"Don't move, hands on your head, squat against the wall!" Xu Mo barked at Chen Wen, simultaneously giving Chen Ke a signal. ωωw.. net

The latter instantly understood, sprinted to the corner, scooped up the tightly‑bound boy, and retreated back to Xu Mo's side.

At that moment, the police who arrived later flooded onto the second floor; seeing the boy not held hostage by Chen Wen but rescued in Chen Ke's arms, they all let out a sigh of relief.

Chen Wen also breathed a sigh of relief, just like the officers.

Whether in a hurry or not, he finally, before the police arrived, deleted all the browsing records from the computer's several browsers.

"Huh…" Chen Wen exhaled heavily, then turned his head toward the dozens of officers blocking the second‑floor stairwell.

Even though they outnumbered him, he wasn't scared at all.

"You filthy cop, I'll go all out against you!"

After shouting, he charged at the nearest Xu Mo.

In fact, if his brother Chen Wu hadn't blocked him at the start, he hadn't even planned to run; he was just pondering whether to go all out against the officers.

Facing the bald‑headed, muscular, fleshy‑cheeked Chen Wen, Xu Mo didn't hesitate and struck.

He immediately slapped a Great Bidding Device across the opponent's face.

The slap, though not at full strength, sent Chen Wen sprawling onto the ground; his eyes filled with stars and a buzzing rang in his ears.

"Handcuff him." After the slap, Xu Mo moved his slightly numb palm, didn't even glance at Chen Wen behind him, turned back confidently, and said to the officers behind him.

"Team Leader Xu, awesome, so cool!" Chen Ke couldn't help but give Xu Mo a thumbs‑up.

Facing Chen Wen's hulking frame, he was confident he could subdue him, yet it would still take three to five rounds.

It still had to be Team Leader Xu—who knocked this big guy down with a single slap!

The key is that after Xu Mo's slap, he turned back confidently, giving off a cinematic "big‑screen" vibe—real men never look back at explosions!

"Stop whining, there's still one we haven't caught. First bring back the one who ran away," Han Fei said. "Quickly handcuff him. Team Leader Xu, you and Chen Ke stay here and watch this kid; I'll take the rest and continue the chase."

As soon as the words fell, a huge "bang" echoed from outside the window.

Following the sound, the officers saw the suspect's cargo truck smashed solidly into a bridge pier on the overpass, the front end crumpled.

The sight made everyone exchange bewildered glances, all momentarily stunned.

Nice—just a moment ago we were fretting over how to catch them, and now we don't have to worry… the opponent delivered himself right to the door!
