Chapter 55: Investigation Team: As Long As the Co‑pilot Can Fly

"Han Team…," Chen Ke stammered, "There's a saying I'm not sure I should say."

Han Fei subconsciously thought Chen Ke was also about to accuse him of cheating.

He was just about to retort.

But before he could speak, Chen Ke kept going.

"The Pilot of this plane is Xu Mo. The biggest problem isn't whether we can catch him after the plane lands, but… I don't know if you've considered how likely this plane is to land successfully… He literally can't fly a plane at all."

Han Fei: "???".

That does seem to be a problem.

Han Fei just called his police friend in Hangcheng and laid the whole situation out.

That friend knew it was a filming for a crime‑prevention program.

He immediately said he could dispatch a few people to help Han Fei, to block Xu Mo at the airport.

At first glance, the plan looked perfectly flawless.

Xu Mo would be caught the moment he touched down.

But Han Fei overlooked one thing.

Xu Mo simply doesn't know how to fly a plane!

Whether the plane Xu Mo is piloting can land safely remains an unknown.

Still go to Hangcheng Airport to block him?

Whether he can even get the plane to Hangcheng is a damn big question.

As soon as Chen Ke finished, the airport staff were stunned.

"What did you say? Xu Mo can't fly a plane!? Isn't he the Pilot?"

What joke is that? How can a Pilot not know how to fly?

Han Fei gave a wry smile and shook his head.

"He's not a Pilot at all; he's just a day laborer. Not only does he not know how to fly, he's never even left the region, never once rode a plane. The Pilot Credentials are forged as well."

The staff widened their eyes, looking utterly incredulous.

He opened his mouth several times, but couldn't utter a single word.

So Xu Mo forged a Pilot Credentials.

And with those Pilot Credentials, he deceived the Airline Company and became a Pilot.

That in itself is one thing, but the key is…

This fake Pilot, where does he get the nerve to fly a real plane!?

"Is it possible that Xu Mo actually can fly a plane?" Shen Manni said, "Look, hasn't the plane already taken off?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the airport staff hurriedly rebutted her.

"Impossible. Flying a plane isn't that simple; if anyone could just take off, the Airline Company wouldn't be short of Pilots."

He paused briefly, then continued.

"I guess the co‑pilot is actually controlling the plane; Xu Mo probably knows his limits and simply handed the controls over to the co‑pilot."

"The co‑pilot can fly?" Han Fei asked.

The airport staff nodded.

"Of course, and the co‑pilot on this plane is named Wang Li, an old man who will soon be promoted to Pilot."

The fact that the co‑pilot can fly is probably something outsiders aren't aware of.

But airport and Airline Company staff all know that a co‑pilot can fly the plane.

Most co‑pilots are accumulating flight hours and, under the Pilot's authorization, the number of takeoffs and landings.

Once all the standards are met, the co‑pilot can be promoted to Pilot.

So a co‑pilot being able to fly isn't worth making a big fuss over.

The Investigation Team members all breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as the co‑pilot can fly, that's enough!

Otherwise, whether the plane can safely reach Hangcheng would indeed be a huge problem.

It seems Xu Mo still has some sense; he found a co‑pilot about to be promoted, instead of flying himself.

Han Fei thought to himself.

After sighing in relief, the Investigation Team members already began to think.

Since the plane has a co‑pilot with long seniority who is about to become Pilot, the plane reaching Hangcheng safely is certainly no problem.

When the plane arrives in Hangcheng, the call Han Fei made earlier should take effect.

When Xu Mo leaves the airport, the waiting police will catch him red‑handed.

Perfect!

After catching him, work's done; hold a celebration banquet tonight!

…

Song Yixue, who was watching the Program Backstage, frowned upon seeing Han Fei's maneuver.

If Han Fei plays like this, Xu Mo is bound to be caught.

They even bring a hammer.

Xu Mo finally managed to infiltrate the Airline Company and finally got a plane that could leave Yangcheng.

But Han Fei's single phone call ruined it all.

Over at Hangcheng Airport, someone is already blocking Xu Mo.

Once Xu Mo lands the plane, this episode should be over.

How could a high‑rating program end like this? Thinking about it, it's really a bit of a pity…

As the program's Chief Director, Song Yixue naturally doesn't want the show she directs to end just like that.

But now she can only watch helplessly, unable to do anything.

She can only pray that Xu Mo this time can also escape from the Investigation Team's grasp.

"I have no idea what method Xu Mo will think of this time to get away, or maybe… this time Xu Mo will get caught?"

Song Yixue looked toward the backstage and muttered to herself.

In her heart, a faint thread of anticipation rose for a moment.

……

On the plane.

Yang Jingxuan, disguised as a Flight Attendant, was asking each passenger on the plane whether they needed water.

Suddenly, a conversation between a boy and a girl came from behind, leaving her dumbfounded.

The boy spoke up: "Have you watched Sky Eye Operation?"

Girl: "I've seen it, just two episodes. It seemed boring so I stopped. I heard a new episode came out, I haven't watched it yet."

"Then you should watch it quickly; this episode is interesting, especially interesting! I'm telling you, this Escapee is really badass; he pretended to be a Pilot to fly and evade the Investigation Team!"

"Fly a plane? That impressive?"

"Hmm! I just opened my phone and saw members of the Investigation Team looking up at that plane taking off in the sky. The key is that this Escapee doesn't know how to fly at all; he can only let the co‑pilot handle it, and I have no idea which unlucky guy ended up on the plane the Escapee was using, haha…"

The boy could never have imagined this even in his dreams.

The unlucky guy he mentioned is actually himself.

Not only did he not foresee it, but he also damn grins with his mouth open there…

Of course, he doesn't know, because he's currently watching the Investigation Team's footage in Room No. 2 Live Broadcast Room.

If he were to switch to Room No. 3 Live Broadcast Room right now.

He would discover that the unlucky person he said was sitting on the Escapee's plane is himself…

Yang Jingxuan: "???"

After hearing that conversation, she only felt her head buzzing.

Sky Eye Operation?

Escapee flying a plane?

Isn't this damn thing talking about Xu Mo?

From their dialogue, she also realized that Xu Mo had deceived her.

Xu Mo doesn't know how to fly at all!

He said he'd be able to fly a plane, didn't he?

He promised he once saved a plane passenger's life, didn't he?

Sure enough, a man's words are a liar's ghost.

But Yang Jingxuan didn't feel scared.

Because before boarding, she learned from Xu Mo and Wang Li's conversation that Wang Li can also fly a plane.

That means the plane at least won't fall to the ground halfway through…

At that moment, the boy behind her continued speaking.

"That Escapee probably doesn't know, the Police have already laid a net in Hangcheng; as soon as they touch down they'll be captured. This episode should end here."

His words, without a single omission, fell entirely into Yang Jingxuan's ears.
