Chapter 81: The Video Xu Mo Left Behind
At this moment, Guangtou had already formed a preconceived conclusion.
These police officers were also impostors.
All of this, everything, was staged.
Everyone in the villa was an extra, and Xu Mo spent money to bring in extras to dupe them.
However, when he heard Guangtou say those words,
the police officers were stunned.
Has this kid Yan Shuangying seen too much?
He knew clearly that what he held wasn't a water gun.
It was a Real Weapon.
A genuine, authentic Real Weapon.
Inside, there were not only bullets.
It was fully loaded.
Moreover, because the higher‑ups placed great importance on this capture operation.
So this time, when they loaded the bullets,
they gave only live rounds, not a single blank.
After all, no one was sure whether this not‑small‑scale Scam Gang actually possessed weapons.
They couldn't joke about the police officers' safety.
In the instant the officers were dazed,
Guangtou swaggered over to the extra who only had a three‑word line.
That was the extra just now, making him lose face!
He was ready to regain the face he had just lost.
He reached out and gave the extra two pats on the face, neither too light nor too hard.
Leaning close to the extra's face, he said with a chilling gaze,
"Mafia? Like to chop people up and feed them to dogs? Do you believe… I'm about to chop you up and feed you to dogs?"
Guangtou's gaze, and the aura emanating from him at that moment,
frightened the extra.
He instinctively began to tremble.
He suddenly felt a very strong sensation.
This Guangtou before him.
He feared he might not be a genuine outlaw…
This feeling is hard to portray.
Seeing this, Guangtou let out a disdainful snort, "Coward."
He plopped onto the sofa.
He took out a cigarette, lit it, and naturally sat on the sofa, exhaling clouds of smoke.
"Call Xu Mo over; I have something to discuss with him."
Then, Guangtou waved at the police officer beside him.
"You guys, come over and pound my legs, damn, you've made my legs go numb."
Guangtou's little combo was exceptionally smooth.
So the officers are still bewildered.
Having been in this line of work for so long.
What kind of situation haven't they seen?
Honestly, there aren't many situations that can leave them stunned.
Today counts as one.
This Scam Gang member, suspecting that their guns had no bullets, would be one thing.
And he brazenly told them to pound his legs?
How dare he!?
Seeing the officers not move, Guangtou grew impatient.
He flicked the cigarette butt out with his finger.
He casually tossed the extinguished butt onto the ground.
Anger already showed on his face.
He walked toward the officers.
"Dammit, you have no face? Still pointing a water gun at me, huh?"
"I told you to come over and pound my legs, didn't you hear?"
"Look at me? What the hell are you looking at? Today I'll beat the shit out of you until you're clean!"
Guangtou went berserk.
He prepared to vent his anger onto these extras.
Although in numbers the Scam Gang didn't have the advantage.
The number of extras was several times more than theirs.
But they were criminals.
They were outlaws.
Can you still be scared of a bunch of Extras holding water guns?
Guangtou thought of that, and that's why he was so unrestrained.
Guangtou got closer and closer to the police officer.
He was actually preparing to snatch the gun from the police officer.
The next second.
"Bang!"
The pitch‑black barrel was emitting a thin wisp of white smoke.
After the gunshot, the police officer who fired spoke.
"I'll repeat this one last time: everyone crouch, hands over your heads!"
Of course, he didn't shoot anyone directly.
Instead, he chose to fire a blank shot into an empty area.
That shot was a warning.
When carrying out dangerous or critical missions.
Although police officers are issued firearms, they cannot fire them recklessly.
They may only fire in a crisis situation.
For example, just now.
He had to fire a shot first to intimidate.
If the intimidation fails.
Then the next shot would hit Guangtou.
Under normal circumstances, once the first shot used for intimidation is fired,
the scene is immediately brought under control.
This time is no exception.
Just now, the wildly defiant Guangtou, who wanted the police officer to beat his own legs,
will now sit down obediently on the ground.
Both hands placed on his somewhat reflective head.
He dares not move a muscle.
A thin bead of sweat seeped onto his forehead.
"Don't shoot, don't shoot! I'm crouching!"
That scene just now still makes Guangtou feel a lingering fear when he thinks about it.
Even though he hasn't seen a real gun,... who doesn't know the sound of a gun?
That, damn it, isn't a water gun.
It's a real gun!
The shooter certainly isn't an Extra.
But a genuine police officer!
Besides him, the other members of the Scam Gang also crouched obediently.
But the Extras seemed a bit unsettled.
The situation has developed to this point.
They can almost see it now.
Things are a bit off.
No matter how you look at it, this doesn't look like a performance.
Seeing that the Scam Gang members were all obedient, the lead police officer said, "Handcuff them and take them away!"
He then turned his gaze toward the Extras.
"Where is Xu Mo? The guy who claimed to be the director just now."
"He... seems to have gone far back in that direction earlier," one Extra replied.
Upon hearing that, a police officer with a gun immediately walked over.
Preparing to locate Xu Mo as well.
After a short while, the police officers who had gone returned.
He shook his oddly colored face and said, "We didn't find Xu Mo; he probably ran away. We only found a phone... When we found this phone, a video was looping on it."
He said that while handing over the phone.
That phone belonged to Wang Yue; it had been given to Xu Mo earlier, and after Xu Mo checked her bank account balance, he never returned it.
The lead police officer took the phone.
He watched the video Xu Mo left.
At this moment, the Earpiece again transmitted the voice of the external commander.
"Why is there still gunfire? Is anyone injured?"
"No, it was a blank shot," the lead police officer said, "The Scam Gang has been captured, but Xu Mo ran away."
"Ran away!?"
"Yes, he also left a video."
"What video?"
"You'll know once you watch it."
With the handcuffed Scam Gang in tow, he led the Extras.
The officers disbanded and left the villa.
As for Xu Mo, they didn't chase him at all.
This time, the main task is to capture the Scam Gang.
Arresting Xu Mo is just a side note.
If they can catch him, that's best.
If they can't, it's not a big deal for the officers.
Anyway, Xu Mo is not an Escapee.
They wouldn't go to great lengths over Xu Mo.
Moreover, having captured so many people this time, they'll be busy enough later.
They simply have no time to spare anyone to accompany the Investigation Team's uproar, let alone go after a Xu Mo who isn't a real Escapee.
He took the phone out.
He handed it to Zhang Dui, who was in charge of commanding this operation.
The video on the phone was recorded by Xu Mo in advance.
In the footage, Xu Mo waved at the camera.
"Hello, comrades of the Hangcheng Police and the Investigation Team. When you see this video, I've already fled, as expected."
"No need to thank me for setting you up to catch someone; it's what I should do as a citizen."
"I saw online a Bounty on this Scam Gang—five hundred thousand."
"Procedurally, the money swindled by the Scam Gang would be taken by the Police, and then you, the Police, would give me the five hundred thousand Bounty, but I can't go to the Police Station right now; you know, my situation is special."
"Moreover, the money just keeps circulating and will end up in my hands anyway, so… I simply got the fifty thousand from the Scam Gang."
"This money is lawful and legitimate!"
Upon saying that, Xu Mo shrugged and made a "bye‑bye" hand gesture.
He reached out and turned off the recording video.
