Chapter 87: Why Doesn't Xu Mo Play by the Rules?

~7 min read 1,394 words

Detention Center.

The four members of the Investigation Team, one of them brought a chair and sat in the Detention Center's Da Ting directly facing the main door.

Sitting there, anyone who comes in or out of the door cannot escape their eyes.

This is also the only entrance and exit of the Detention Center.

If you want to enter or leave the Detention Center, you have to go through here.

Xu Mo wants to rescue someone?

Impossible!

The Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room, seeing the Investigation Team members act like this.

For a moment, they couldn't help but worry for Xu Mo.

"This Investigation Team is damn sneaky, setting up a little stool at the doorway—do they even play like this?"

"Just one door, and they guard it so tightly—how the hell can they rescue anyone?"

"Isn't this outright cheating? Both robbing a bank and rescuing someone from a Detention Center rely on catching the opponent off guard—why would they tip off the Investigation Team in advance? They already know Xu Mo's next move, so what's the point of playing around!"

"What about that brother who liked to eat monitors and sardine cans before—aren't you going to bet another round?"

"I bet you nn! Get out of the way!"

……

"Li Chen, you have to keep a close watch, don't blink even once; you're the key person in catching Xu Mo this time," Chen Ke teased.

Li Chen, who bears the nickname "Human‑Eye Camera," smiled.

"Don't worry, I've been watching the whole time. As long as Xu Mo dares to come, I'll be able to see through him at the first moment!"

With Li Chen's words, the remaining three members of the Investigation Team felt reassured.

The Detention Center has only one door.

And they even have it under control.

Moreover, with Li Chen, the "Human‑Eye Camera," here, can Xu Mo come to rescue anyone?

Not to mention rescuing anyone.

As long as Xu Mo dares to appear at the Detention Center's doorway.

He will be immediately seen through and captured.

Then their mission will be considered successfully completed.

Unlike the previous situation where Xu Mo led them by the nose.

This time, they have the complete advantage.

They don't even need to exert effort to look for Xu Mo.

Just wait here like a trap for a rabbit.

Han Fei now feels an unprecedented ease.

He thinks that this time, Xu Mo simply has no way out, right?

Sitting beside him, Shen Manni, with a worried expression, voiced her thoughts.

"Xu Mo must have thought that we're waiting for him inside the Detention Center; he certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to walk into a trap."

"Tell me… could he skip rescuing that helper and go straight to robbing the bank?"

As soon as the words finished, Chen Ke immediately opened his mouth to rebut.

"Impossible. A bank isn't something you can just rob on a whim; if it were that easy, people would be robbing it every day. Besides, Xu Mo is alone—what can he possibly do? A couple of bank security guards would be enough to pin him to the ground."

Speaking of that, Chen Ke smiled: "If he really dared to rob a bank alone, it would actually save us the time we're wasting here. If security caught him, they'd surely call the police right away, which would be even more convenient."

Li Chen also chimed in: "Exactly, if he wants to rob a bank, he'll need accomplices; Xu Mo will definitely come to rescue them first."

Chen Ke and Li Chen both expressed their opinions.

Shen Manni again looked at Han Fei.

"Han Team, what do you think?"

"My view is the same as theirs," Han Fei mused. "Xu Mo will definitely come to rescue. The helper that the Program Crew placed in the Detention Center is someone who knows the bank inside out; with this helper, his chance of successfully robbing the bank increases dramatically. Xu Mo wouldn't ignore such an advantage."

Shen Manni still wanted to say something.

But seeing the three of them so resolute,

she didn't speak again.

thinking that perhaps she was indeed overthinking.

Xu Mo alone is indeed bold enough to rob a bank.

He must first come to rescue people.

However, at that moment,

Han Fei's phone suddenly rang.

The call was from Wang Ju.

The phone had just connected.

Before Han Fei could speak,

Wang Ju spoke first.

"Lao Han, you all should come to me right away; Xu Mo has started robbing a bank! I received a police alarm call here."

Han Fei: "???".

He had just finished saying that Xu Mo wouldn't go rob a bank first.

But then Xu Mo actually made a move?

"He's going to rob the bank right now??"

"Right, we've already received a lot of emergency calls in this short time, and we've also retrieved the surveillance from that bank, confirming that a man and a woman are robbing the bank. I've already dispatched officers here; you come quickly."

"Alright," Han Fei replied.

He hung up the phone.

He slipped the phone into his pocket and rose quickly.

"Let's go, Xu Mo has already started robbing the bank. Old Wang just called me; let's head over now."

Li Chen stared at Han Fei with a bewildered expression: "What the hell? He really went alone?"

He was both puzzled and shocked.

But the other three left no trace.

After all, time was tight.

Chen Ke, Shen Manni, and Li Chen also rose in turn.

They jogged all the way and walked out of the Detention Center's gate.

After locating their parked car, they opened the doors and headed straight for the Police Station.

Han Fei's face darkened.

He had just said that Xu Mo would definitely come first to rescue people.

Then he received a call saying Xu Mo was robbing the bank!

He was about to hate Xu Mo to death.

That little bastard, he's acting completely against all logic.

Isn't that slapping him in the face?

You should know that the Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room were watching.

He had just sworn so confidently that Xu Mo would definitely come first to rescue people.

Who could have known Xu Mo would simply skip rescuing and go straight to robbing the bank.

It seemed that Han Fei wasn't the only one getting slapped in the face.

Chen Ke and Li Chen were also there.

The two of them were so angry they clenched their teeth.

The Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room laughed as they watched Han Fei and the others eat their defeat.

"666666 Xu Mo is awesome! Single‑handedly robbing the bank!"

"That slap in the face came way too fast, hahaha."

"Xu Mo: Didn't see that coming, I won't rescue anyone, I'm just going to rob the bank!"

"All you do is laugh, unlike others who only feel sorry for giegie; didn't you see their teeth were about to snap from the anger?"

……

Han Fei and the others didn't go to the bank right away.

Anyway, the police had already been dispatched.

Even if they went to the bank now, the help they could provide would be very limited.

So, after leaving the Detention Center, the few of them headed to the Police Station along the way.

They arrived at Wang Ju's office.

Han Fei still didn't knock; he just pushed the door open and entered.

"I said, can you knock next time you come in? Don't you care about privacy?" Wang Ju gave Han Fei a cold stare.

But the two were so familiar that they didn't mind, so Wang Ju continued.

"You came at the right time. Look, this is the bank's surveillance; those two are robbing the bank. That's Xu Mo, right?"

Han Fei stared at the footage for a while.

He nodded.

The captured footage wasn't very clear.

But faintly one could still discern from the figure and clothing that the person was Xu Mo.

Seeing Han Fei nod,

Wang Ju continued.

"The moment I received the emergency call, something felt off—a man and a woman robbing a bank, and I immediately thought of the Xu Mo you were looking for."

"Rest assured, I've already deployed a massive police force, surrounding from four directions. This time, even with wings he can't escape!"
