Chapter 89: Luring the Tiger Away from the Mountain

"The surveillance inside the bank was tampered with by Xu Mo!"

Han Fei finished it in a single sentence.

The few of them immediately exchanged glances.

Except for Han Fei, the remaining few thought the same.

The surveillance inside the bank and that outside the bank didn't match at all.

That explains the problem quite well.

The only possibility is that Xu Mo tampered with something.

Although Wang Ju and the others already had a suspicion in their minds.

They still wanted to test it one last time.

"Charge in and see what's happening inside the bank now!"

Wang Ju's voice came through the earpiece into the officers' ears.

The leading officer didn't know that the surveillance had been tampered with by Xu Mo.

So he was very puzzled by Wang Ju's sudden order.

But he didn't say a word to ask.

He just obeyed immediately.

Leading two squads of officers, he rushed into the bank.

After entering, the officers were all stunned.

The bank was already a complete mess.

Some were lying on the floor foaming at the mouth.

Some were crouching on the floor shivering.

And there were those shouting, "Robbing the bank! Sha people!" while running outward.

All kinds of people were present.

But there was no robber in sight!

At that moment, the officers even began to doubt.

Whether their eyes were at fault?

Could they really not see the robber Xu Mo was playing?

Or perhaps Xu Mo wasn't there at all, and there was no robber in the bank?

But if the bank had no robber, how would one explain these people's behavior inside?

What they didn't know was.

The current chaotic situation in the bank.

Was entirely caused by them.

It was because the customers who came to the bank heard the police shouting at the robber inside.

Everyone then thought there was a robber in the bank, so each of them panicked.

But the officers didn't think that way.

They thought that the robber Xu Mo was playing must be inside the bank, which caused the panic.

And now, the robber Xu Mo was playing should already be blended into the crowd.

After a brief daze, the officer leading the capture mission first reported the situation to Wang Ju.

"Wang Ju, the bank is extremely chaotic right now, we haven't spotted Xu Mo; I suspect he's hidden in the crowd. I'll detain everyone inside and screen them!"

Immediately after, the leading officer gave orders to the other officers.

"Team Three, Team Four, don't let any person who runs out of the bank leave; I suspect Xu Mo is hidden in the crowd!"

But at that moment.

Wang Ju's voice came through the earpiece again.

"No need to waste effort, you all come back; Xu Mo is not in the bank."

Earlier, Wang Ju sent the officers in just to verify one final time.

Whether the surveillance actually had a problem.

But now, he already has an answer.

The officers rushed into the bank and said it was very chaotic inside.

But from the internal surveillance view.

The officers never actually rushed in, and there was no chaos in the bank.

Everyone was just crouching with heads down on the floor—what chaos?

"The surveillance inside the bank was indeed tampered with," Wang Ju said.

Li Chen frowned.

"So Xu Mo wasn't robbing the bank? Then what is he up to? He's got nothing to do, why tamper with the bank's surveillance?"

"Luring the tiger away from the mountain..." Han Fei murmured, glancing at Wang Ju: "That little bastard, he tampered with the surveillance just to distract us, so he could go rescue someone!"

Han Fei immediately rushed out of the police station.

Shen Manni, Li Chen, and Chen Ke followed closely behind and also left the police station.

In the car.

Han Fei, fastening his seatbelt, spoke.

"Li Chen, call the people at the Detention Center and have them watch the entrance for a while; under no circumstances let Xu Mo in. Chen Ke is driving; we're heading back now!"

Hearing that, Li Chen pulled out his phone and dialed the Detention Center supervisor's number he had just saved today.

Wang Ju and his team received the alarm call, including the bank's internal surveillance, all of which were Xu Mo's masterpiece.

The alarm calls were synthesized from sounds Xu Mo found and clipped from movies, and then placed through a virtual number to call the Police.

As for the bank's internal surveillance that the Investigation Team saw at the Police Station, it was also a video that Xu Mo had pre‑edited.

Xu Mo hacked into the bank's surveillance system, using the pre‑edited video to replace the live feed.

The Police didn't know, and they never imagined the alarm call they received was fake.

The internal bank surveillance they retrieved was also a video Xu Mo had pre‑edited.

The Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room who watched Xu Mo finish all this instantly erupted in a frenzy.

"Awesome, damn it, Xu Mo is actually a hacker!?"

"I just want to know what other tricks this guy has; I feel like he can do anything."

"Since he's a corporate drone, if he were a real criminal, the Police would have a real headache!"

"Xu Mo is a damn jack‑of‑all‑trades! I even suspect this kid could smash a big stone with his chest!"

…

The Water Friends didn't know that the Hacker Technique was just granted by the System Reward.

Before that, Xu Mo didn't know it at all.

What he just did in the black internet cafe was all thanks to the System Reward's Hacker Technique.

It also helped that Xu Mo chose the Hacker Technique.

If he had chosen the +2 Strength option.

Then it would have been a total disaster…

All these operations.

They were all completed by Xu Mo in a black internet cafe before he took a taxi to the Detention Center.

When the Police received the alarm call and dispatched units.

Xu Mo had already taken Yang Jingxuan, hired a taxi, and headed straight for the Detention Center.

It wasn't until now that the Police realized they had been tricked by Xu Mo.

By then, Xu Mo had already arrived at the Detention Center.

The actions Xu Mo just performed in the black internet cafe completely won over Yang Jingxuan.

She still hasn't fully recovered her composure.

She looked at Xu Mo with a face full of surprise.

"Are you a hacker?"

"Sort of." Xu Mo nodded.

"Then can you get me a permanent Penguin Membership!?"

Xu Mo: "……"

I damn think you look like a penguin!

Yang Jingxuan quickly realized as well.

That request is rather low‑level.

Having such an awesome hacker try to get a permanent Penguin Membership is truly a waste of talent.

After thinking, Yang Jingxuan spoke again.

"Can you hack into someone else's computer?"

Xu Mo nodded: "I can."

"Really!?" Yang Jingxuan exclaimed excitedly: "I've been watching a drama called *The Man Who Drives and the Woman Who Serves the Pot*, only two episodes left before the finale, but those two episodes won't be released for a few more days. Hack the producer's computer for me! I want to see the finale early!"

Xu Mo: "……"

A second ago, the Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room were still discussing Xu Mo.

This second, everyone was stunned.

"Permanent Penguin Membership, hahahaha, Yang Jingxuan's brain circuit."

"Damn, hackers usually make money, and she just wants a permanent Penguin Membership!"

"She even wants to hack the drama producer's computer, damn, she really can think of that!"

"I'm a hacker. Anyone want a permanent Penguin Membership? Two hundred bucks for a permanent one, I can also hack drama resources, ten bucks per episode."

…

"Damn scammer, cnm! Everyone, watch out not to be fooled by that self‑proclaimed hacker! He just scammed me 222!"

"I damn also got scammed, damn scammer! I curse you to have two py sons!!"
