Chapter 85: A Helper in the Detention Center?

In the Live Broadcast Room, the Water Friends have completely blown up.

"Damn… you can still play like this?"

"What is the Program Crew thinking, letting Xu Mo do a Legal Bank Robbery is what kind of nonsense?"

"A Legal Bank Robbery is one thing, but they even damn give him money to rob!?"

"A Legal Bank Robbery is such a good thing, why does it never fall on me! Damn!"

"Rob as much as you can; a slightly larger Bank Vault should have about thirty to fifty million, isn't this damn Shizi's big mouth?"

"The Program Crew's move this time is way too big; a program with official endorsement is just awesome!"

"Setting aside whether Xu Mo's appetite is big, does he have the ability to rob a bank?"

"If you ask me, it's audacious, but a bank isn't that easy to rob."

…

Most of the Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room don't think Xu Mo can successfully rob a bank.

It's not that they doubt Xu Mo's ability.

On the contrary, after watching the live for so long.

The Water Friends all know Xu Mo is very formidable.

He can toy with the Investigation Team.

But they also know that robbing a bank isn't simple.

Two or three people trying to rob a bank is basically like dreaming.

Robbing a bank, without a gang, there's no play at all.

Before robbing a bank, you must scout the location, gather information, and make a plan.

After the Police receive the report, the shortest time they need to reach the bank, when to act, how to act, how to choose the escape route after success, and so on…

Just the preliminary stage requires a lot of preparation work.

All of this needs manpower.

Even if the Program Crew gives Xu Mo an extra helper.

That still isn't enough.

With a helper, Xu Mo's side at most totals two people.

Yang Jingxuan might also help a bit, but she's exhausted and can only count as half a person.

Two and a half people trying to rob a bank.

This isn't a fantasy, is it?

Not to mention this time the situation is rather special.

Other criminals rob banks by catching the Police off guard, striking suddenly, relying on a time lag.

But this time Xu Mo's operation has no time lag at all.

Because the Investigation Team knows Xu Mo intends to rob a bank, their mission is to stop Xu Mo from robbing a bank.

That makes the difficulty even greater.

In the Live Broadcast Room, Danmaku scrolls one after another.

Almost no one thinks Xu Mo can succeed.

But Xu Mo at this moment is thinking.

How much money this vote can earn me…

On the other end of the phone, Song Yixue is slow to respond.

Xu Mo urged.

"Send One Blood, at least give me a line, do you accept my request or not?"

"I'm Song Yixue, not Send One Blood!"

"Alright, Send One Blood, so does your Program Crew agree to my request?"

Program Backstage.

Song Yixue bites her lip, her face already flushed to the extreme.

Her current assessment of Xu Mo is just two words.

Vulgar!

But after a brief thought, Song Yixue still gave a reply.

"Okay, as you say, this time whatever you can rob, I'll give you that much."

Under normal circumstances, a slightly larger Bank Vault generally contains thirty to fifty million cash.

Which is far more than the two million reward the Program Crew promised Xu Mo.

As long as Xu Mo can successfully rob the bank, the money he gets will definitely be far more than two million.

Moreover, if Xu Mo has the ability, he could completely empty the Bank Vault.

Straight away take away thirty to fifty million and walk away.

But Song Yixue has already come up with a countermeasure.

Just put less money in the Bank Vault, right?

For example, only put a few hundred thousand.

If Xu Mo truly succeeds in robbing the bank, he can only take away five hundred thousand.

Song Yixue thought, this is what you call cleverness backfiring!

Don't like the two million?

Then we won't give you the two million at all!

Hmph!

Hearing Song Yixue's words, Xu Mo smiled.

"Deal! Where's the helper the Program Crew arranged for me? Give me an address, and I'll go fetch her."

"We've placed her in the detention center," Song Yixue said. "The helper assigned to you knows the bank inside out and can be your advantage, but she won't be given to you for free; you need to find a way to pull her out of the detention center."

Xu Mo couldn't help rolling his eyes.

Just knew the Program Crew wasn't that kind!

They promised to arrange a helper for him.

But then they told him the helper is now in the detention center.

He has to figure out how to pull the person out himself.

That undoubtedly raises the game's difficulty.

He doesn't even need to think; the Investigation Team is surely stationed at the detention center, watching him.

One slip, and not only would he fail to rescue anyone, he'd probably get stuck in there himself.

…

Over at the Investigation Team.

The mission they received happens to be the opposite of Xu Mo's.

They need to stop Xu Mo from robbing the bank.

At the same time, they must keep an eye on the helper the Program Crew sent to Xu Mo inside the detention center, preventing Xu Mo from rescuing her.

Because this person is far too familiar with the bank.

If Xu Mo truly rescues her, it would greatly boost his chance of successfully robbing the bank.

But if Xu Mo fails to rescue this helper.

Then relying solely on Xu Mo himself.

There is simply no possibility of success.

A long‑awaited smile appeared on Han Fei's face.

"This time we don't need to take the initiative; the key lies in the extra helper the Program Crew assigned to Xu Mo."

"All we have to do is lie in wait. As long as we keep an eye on the extra helper the Program Crew gave Xu Mo, if Xu Mo dares to rescue her we capture him; if he doesn't come, he can't rob the bank."

Besides Han Fei, the other three members of the Investigation Team also laughed.

Previously, Xu Mo always held the initiative.

He could pull them by the nose every time.

But this time, the situation is exactly the opposite.

They now hold the initiative!

Before robbing the bank, Xu Mo will definitely try to free the extra accomplice the Program Crew placed in the detention center.

What the Investigation Team must do is guard strictly and hold the line.

If they can keep Xu Mo from rescuing anyone, they will stand undefeated in this round.

If he can't rescue anyone, Xu Mo has no helper.

He can only rely on himself to rob the bank.

One person successfully robbing a bank would be a miracle!

Although Xu Mo still has Yang Jingxuan as a helper.

But the Investigation Team completely ignored Yang Jingxuan.

They didn't consider her a support for Xu Mo at all.

The Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room were all dumbfounded.

"WTF, this makes robbing the bank even harder!"

"I thought the Program Crew would just send the helper to find Xu Mo. Who would've guessed the helper is actually in the detention center? This is how they play it?"

"Xu Mo is bold enough to think he'll succeed, but that helper in the detention center seems hard to rescue; how can one person rob a bank?"

"Who said it's a one‑person job? Isn't Yang Jingxuan still beside Xu Mo? That's two people."

"Yang Jingxuan? Even calling her half a help is a compliment; what can she do?"

"She can do it; why wouldn't she?"

…

Just finished the call with Song Yixue.

The two of them arrived at a noodle shop.

Suddenly, Yang Jingxuan sneezed.

"Xu Mo, are you secretly cursing me again in your mind?"

She said that, then glared and lightly tapped Xu Mo.

Xu Mo just rolled his eyes, too lazy to respond.

He has a big advantage.

He doesn't hold grudges; any grievance is reported on the spot.

"Boss, two beef noodles: one with beef, one without beef."

Boss: "……"

Just say one vegetarian noodle and one beef noodle, and that's it!

Being broke and still showing off.

Yang Jingxuan subconsciously thought the beef‑added one was hers, while Xu Mo, to save money, ordered the vegetarian one.

My heart says Xu Mo really gets the whole "cherish fragrance, spare jade" thing!

She looks at Xu Mo with a shy, coquettish expression.

"We're not exactly short on money right now, so don't deprive yourself. Why are you eating plain vegetarian noodles? Add some beef for yourself, too."

"The one who's rich isn't us, it's me," Xu Mo shakes his head. "Also, the vegetarian noodles are yours; I'll have beef noodles."

Yang Jingxuan: "???"
