Chapter 61: A Bit Sympathetic to the Investigation Team
The camera that Yang Jingxuan was carrying captured this scene.
Just looking at the expression of the man who came out of the Male Restroom.
And the content of his muttering.
The Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room can probably guess what the man just went through.
So they even have a picture in their minds.
A Flight Attendant entered the Male Restroom, giving the man a start…
The key is, what the Flight Attendant took out was larger than the man…
Probably any man couldn't endure such a scene.
"Made this guy totally dumbfounded, hahaha…"
"Looking at his wise little eyes, I bet he's already starting to doubt life now, right?"
"Man: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing? Why is what the Flight Attendant took out bigger than me?"
"Feeling sorry for this guy for a tenth of a second, hahaha…"
And at that moment.
A good‑looking guy with his head down playing on his phone.
Walked into the Male Restroom.
Seeing Xu Mo, the man quickly covered his eyes.
He apologized while tactically retreating.
He retreated back to the doorway.
He looked up at the sign by the restroom door.
The expression on the man's face turned strange.
"It's the Male Restroom…"
He just stopped at the doorway.
After thinking for a while.
Finally decided… forget it!
Hold it in!
…
The police officers have already searched this airplane three times.
Every place where a person could be hidden has been searched.
Strangely, not a single person was found.
A few of them were a bit stunned.
"Where is Xu Mo? Isn't he not on this airplane?"
"Probably… maybe… perhaps he isn't here! Otherwise it makes no sense."
"Call Wang Ju, I also suspect Xu Mo wasn't on this airplane at all."
One of the police officers took out his phone and called Wang Ju.
"Who is gazing from afar, above the moon, how many people…"
The phone rang.
Quickly, Wang Ju answered the call.
"How's it going, caught the person? You have to keep an eye on this kid, Lao Han just boarded the plane, there are two hours left to Hangcheng, must not let the kid escape…"
The sentence wasn't finished before a police officer cut him off.
"Wang Ju… no… no one was caught…"
"What did you say!? Didn't catch him? Let him run away?", Wang Ju's blood pressure spiked instantly.
Ten very senior police officers were deployed.
Still while holding the initiative.
Can't even catch an ordinary person?
Are you kidding?
"No, no.", the officer explained: "It's not that he ran away, it's… there was never that person on the plane."
This sentence also has another meaning.
The intelligence was wrong.
Xu Mo was never on this airplane.
However, the officer didn't dare to say it outright.
After all, the matter of Xu Mo being on this airplane was said by Wang Ju.
Wang Ju is also a shrewd person.
Upon hearing that, he immediately grasped the other layer of meaning in the words.
"I understand."
After saying that, he hung up.
He sent a WeChat message to Han Fei, who was on the plane.
Han Fei had been waiting for good news from an old friend.
So he checked the message immediately.
"Xu Mo isn't on the plane?" Han Fei muttered, "Impossible!"
Li Chen, sitting beside him, leaned in.
"What does that mean? We couldn't catch him this time??"
"Didn't we say that this time we let the Hangcheng Police set up a preemptive deployment at the airport?"
"How the hell can he still run?"
"How did he run?"
"Could Xu Mo even grow wings and fly away!?"
"Han Fei was momentarily stunned, then spoke."
"Lao Wang told me that his men compared Xu Mo's photo with the people on the plane carefully, and didn't see Xu Mo."
"Impossible—could the airport staff have fooled us? Xu Mo was on that plane."
"I also find it strange—how did he get away this time?"
"Han Fei forwarded his conversation with Lao Wang into the group."
"Shen Manni and Chen Ke, who couldn't sit with the two, also saw the information in the group."
"Shen Manni: 'He ran away again?'"
"Chen Ke: 'Is this kid a yellow eel? So slippery? Even with the Hangcheng Police's preemptive deployment, they couldn't catch him?'"
"The Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room were starting to lose patience."
"They actually know how Xu Mo escaped."
"They also want to clear things up for the Investigation Team."
"But the problem is, the Investigation Team can't see the Danmaku at all."
"Even if they wanted to leak information, they can't."
"They can only watch the four members of the Investigation Team bump around like headless flies."
"'I'm increasingly losing confidence in the Investigation Team now.'"
"'Me too. Xu Mo is just absurd; even in this situation, he still managed to get away.'"
"'Fortunately Xu Mo isn't a real Escapee; otherwise they'd have a headache.'"
"'Suddenly I feel a bit sorry for the Investigation Team; it seems they're either being toyed with by Xu Mo or on the way to being toyed with...'"
"……"
"Hangcheng."
"Xiaoshan Airport."
"The officers looked somewhat dejected."
"They originally thought it was a very simple mission."
"Who could have known they'd even capsize in a gutter?"
"Ten officers, and they still couldn't catch an ordinary person!"
"They couldn't even see Xu Mo's shadow."
"Moreover, they don't even know where Xu Mo is now."
"Is he in Hangcheng? Or in Yangcheng?"
"Or perhaps on a flight from Yangcheng to Hangcheng?"
"They don't know."
"Little do they know, the very Xu Mo is already preparing to leave the airport."
"Because this time the Police only sent ten people."
"And all ten of them were stationed in the corridor."
"Thus, the other parts of the airport were very safe at that moment."
"Xu Mo and Shen Manni moved unobstructed all the way."
"They took a taxi and left the airport directly."
"……"
"Two hours later."
"The Investigation Team arrived."
"Ten officers went to receive the flight."
"The Investigation Team, having just landed, didn't idle for a moment."
"They immediately had the officers guide them to the airport staff."
"They retrieved the surveillance footage from that time."
"That footage faced the corridor."
"It happened to capture the corridor scene in its entirety."
"The four members of the Investigation Team, along with the ten officers, sat in front of the screen watching the footage."
"In the surveillance footage."
"The officers split the men and women into two groups."
"Only checking the men, not the women."
"At first glance, it seemed quite normal."
"After all, they're looking for Xu Mo; checking only the men is sufficient."
"As for the women, there's absolutely no need to check them."
"But Chen Ke quickly noticed something was off."
"'Wait a moment!' Chen Ke pointed at the screen: 'Rewind the footage by ten seconds.'"
"The staff complied."
"That's it, this person, zoom in.", Chen Ke continued.
The staff complied again.
In the screen, a Flight Attendant's face appeared.
Chen Ke slammed the table: "Damn!"
The officer was slightly startled.
"Is there something wrong with this Flight Attendant…?"
"More than just something wrong.", Chen Ke wiped his face, looking at the officer: "Have you ever seen a Flight Attendant who's about 1.8 m tall?"
He paused briefly, then continued.
"This damn is Xu Mo! He disguised himself as a Flight Attendant and slipped away among them."
"Look closely—eyes, nose, mouth, they're exactly the same as Xu Mo's!"
Officer: "…"
How could he have thought of that!?
