Chapter 266: Miraculous! Even the Camera Can't See His Operation Clearly!

~7 min read 1,205 words

"Let's go, let's go take a look."

After Liu Xuemin finished speaking, the group immediately followed Zhou Yun into the Pursuit Team's Command Room.

As soon as they entered the door, a middle-aged man with an anxious expression came into everyone's view.

The man looked to be about forty or fifty years old.

He had graying hair, dressed casually, and wore a pair of thick, black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose.

Stubble covered the area around his mouth, and a messenger bag was slung diagonally across his shoulder.

At this moment, he was anxiously saying something to Zhang Hao.

After the members of the Expert Group entered the room, they headed straight toward them.

Seeing them arrive, Zhang Hao casually reassured the middle-aged man, then took the opportunity to put down the folder in his hand and stood up to greet them: "Team Captain."

"How is it?" Zhou Yun asked.

Scanning the group with a meaningful look, Zhang Hao shook his head; it seemed there was no progress.

Seeing this, Zhou Yun didn't say much more and walked directly in front of the middle-aged man to greet him:

"Hello, sir. My name is Zhou Yun, and I am the person in charge here."

"Oh, hello, hello, Captain Zhou, my name is Wang Qiang..." The middle-aged man stood up and reached out both hands to shake Zhou Yun's: "I've seen you on TV..."

Hearing this, Zhou Yun smiled slightly: "Nice to meet you. Mr. Wang, these are the members of our program's Expert Group."

"Hello to you all," Wang Qiang said with a cheerful smile as he greeted them.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Liu Xuemin went straight to the point: "Mr. Wang, are you certain that your wallet was lost at the plaza?"

Hearing this, Wang Qiang nodded vigorously: "Certain! Before watching the performance, I clearly remember that the wallet was in my jacket pocket."

Li Changyu said: "Could you tell us the details of what happened in full?"

Glancing at Li Changyu, Wang Qiang swallowed, thought for a moment, and then began to recount the situation at the time:

"At that time, I was watching the live performance on-site. There were a lot of people, and it was very crowded. I had been very careful about keeping my wallet safe; to prevent it from being stolen, I even put it in the inside pocket of my jacket and kept my hand pressed against it the whole time, never letting go."

"But after the performance ended, when I went to get my wallet, I only pulled out a pile of waste paper..."

As he spoke, Wang Qiang took a wad of waste paper from his pocket and placed it on the table.

It was a flyer for the second round of the *Simulated Crime* competition.

At this moment, the expressions of the several experts were very complex.

Following that, Wang Qiang continued:

"... I discovered the wallet was gone. I didn't even think about it at the time and went straight to the nearby police station to report the case..."

"What was in your wallet?" Liu Xuemin asked immediately after he finished.

"My ID card, driver's license, passport, work ID, some receipts, and some loose change."

Hearing this, Liu Xuemin nodded slightly and continued to ask: "During this process, did you feel anyone get close to you, or was there any unusual situation?"

"Unusual situation?"

Wang Qiang frowned and thought for a while, then finally shook his head and said: "No..."

As his voice fell, Liu Xuemin exchanged glances with the members of the Expert Group.

"Alright, sir, thank you for your cooperation. If there is any news, I will contact you immediately."

After saying goodbye to Wang Qiang, the experts left the Pursuit Team's Command Room immediately.

In the hallway, Wang Ruomei said as she walked:

"He caused such a big scene; could his ultimate goal really just be to steal a stranger's wallet?"

At this time, Chen Zijin, who had been silent, suddenly said: "That wallet isn't the point. What he really wants must be that person's identity..."

This sentence from Chen Zijin directly enlightened everyone.

The next second, Li Changyu suddenly said: "You mean, he might be trying to use this identity to leave Yanjing?"

"Exactly." Chen Zijin nodded meaningfully: "Based on my understanding of him, this guy's ultimate goal is definitely not as simple as just stealing a wallet; he must have other schemes. If we seal off all major transportation hubs now, we will definitely be able to find something!"

After he finished, Liu Xuemin interjected: "Hmm, that makes sense. How about this: you all go back first and see if you can find any valuable clues from the live footage, and I will go notify the Pursuit Team to have them investigate along the passport lead!"

"Good!"

After parting ways with Liu Xuemin, the other members of the Expert Group quickly returned to the Command Room and threw themselves back into the tedious work of analyzing the footage.

With the passport lead, they shifted the focus of this screening directly onto the middle-aged man, watching his every move throughout the entire process, examining it frame by frame, not letting a single detail slip!

But what was absurd was that even though they had managed to not miss a single frame, they still hadn't found any valuable clues!

From the start of the performance to the end, Chu Chen had no substantial contact with him at all!

He had completed this theft with almost zero contact!

Looking at the frozen image on the big screen, Zhu Guowei couldn't help but mutter: "It's truly miraculous... how on earth did he do it?"

Wang Ruomei said: "Could there be a problem with our footage?"

Lin Xu interjected: "Impossible, I've checked; these recordings are authentic, first-hand data and haven't been tampered with."

"Then it's truly hellish... unless he really has superpowers, this is simply impossible to achieve..."

This sentence from Wang Ruomei once again caused the atmosphere in the Command Room to turn cold.

At the same time, the comments in the live stream also began to increase at this moment:

【Holy crap, how on earth did God Chu steal that wallet!】

【It's miraculous, truly miraculous!】

【Can you not be so exaggerated!】

【Brother Chen wouldn't really have superpowers, would he!】

【My brother is amazing, even the camera can't see God Chu's operation clearly!】

【The Expert Group's heads are buzzing again!】

……

After a large wave of comments, the live stream camera shifted once again.

The first thing to come into view was Terminal 1 of Yanjing International Airport.

Immediately following, a taxi with a Yanjing license plate burst into the frame and finally slowed to a stop on the road in front of the terminal.

After the car came to a steady stop, a middle-aged man pushed open the car door and stepped out.

Seeing this middle-aged man, the viewers in the live stream room immediately recognized his true identity and began posting comments again:

【God Chu?】

【Brother Chen?】

【666, if you guys hadn't said anything, I wouldn't have even realized it!】

【God Chu's makeup skills are getting more and more awesome, it's practically a one-to-one replica!】

【Everyone stand up!】
