Chapter 268: The Expert Group's Shock, the Crime Begins!

Time slipped away in a flash.

Several hours later.

Inside the Expert Group's Command Room!

"Knock, knock, knock!"

Accompanied by a burst of urgent knocking, Team Captain Zhou Yun and the other team captains walked in with a flurry of activity.

"Team Captain, what exactly is going on?" Seeing them arrive, Liu Xuemin spoke up immediately.

Hearing this, Zhou Yun caught his breath, then scanned the crowd and said:

"After our investigation, he did indeed use Wang Qiang's passport to purchase a ticket for a direct flight to Yuebei, and he did indeed enter the airport's VIP lounge; regarding this point, the VIP lounge staff and passengers can all testify for us."

"After arriving at the location, we immediately pulled the surveillance footage from the VIP lounge. Through the surveillance, we discovered that before he disappeared, he went to the restroom once, and then he never appeared again..."

As Zhou Yun said this, the expressions of several experts were somewhat complex.

Especially those experts from the first competition; they had all crossed paths with Chu Chen and knew well some of this guy's Anti-Reconnaissance methods.

When they heard Zhou Yun say that Chu Chen had gone to the restroom midway, they already knew that this operation was surely a bust.

At this moment, Matthew, standing next to Zhou Yun, continued: "There are too many blind spots in the surveillance at that location. Up until now, we have no way of determining by what method he left there."

After he finished speaking, Zhuang Yan added: "By the time we arrived, he was already nowhere to be found..."

After the few of them had roughly recounted the matter, Li Changyu pondered for a moment and asked: "Have you checked the surveillance outside the airport?"

"We checked, but we didn't find any valuable clues..." Zhou Yun replied.

Hearing this, Li Changyu asked again: "You just said he bought a ticket to Yuebei?"

"Yes. But it seems he didn't board the plane. Because we carefully screened all the boarding passengers and didn't find any suspicious individuals; until the plane officially took off, no one had come to his seat. To avoid any omissions, we even checked all the flight crew and the aircraft's cargo hold, but in the end, we still came up empty-handed..." Zhou Yun said word by word, his tone complex and dejected.

After he finished, Wang Ruomei spoke up in surprise: "A grown man just disappeared like that?"

The several Pursuit Captains remained silent.

They were also very puzzled by this matter.

Just then, Zhu Guowei, who had not spoken until now, asked Zhou Yun: "So, he didn't board the plane at all in the end?"

"Barring any surprises, that should be the case." Zhou Yun did not deny his question.

"Then if that's the case, why did he go to such great lengths to make such a big scene earlier? Could it be that his intention wasn't to obtain an identity and then slip away?"

This sentence from Zhu Guowei suddenly made Li Changyu, who had been frowning the whole time, eyes light up.

The next second, he said slowly in a deep voice:

"We have all been fooled by this guy..."

Once Li Changyu's words were out, it was like detonating a heavy bomb, instantly attracting everyone's attention!

Immediately following, without waiting for others to speak, he explained directly:

"Whether it was the previous magic trick or that stolen fake identity, they were all just smoke screens he threw out. From beginning to end, he never thought about boarding that plane. Everything he did was to make us step into the reconnaissance trap he had set in advance and sink deep into it."

"Just like the words he said during his performance earlier... in front of a qualified magician, never think that you are close to the truth; the more you think so, the easier it is to be fooled... He was actually saying these words for us to hear..."

【As expected of the Chinese super-detective, he really has some skills!】

【The most awesome criminal forensics expert in the United States!】

【Amazing! Brilliant!】

【With the addition of Dr. Li, the strength of the Expert Group is not to be underestimated!】

【Now we're in for a good show!】

Li Changyu's words made everyone present suddenly realize the truth!

In an instant, everyone was shocked by this wave of Anti-Reconnaissance operations by Chu Chen!

They never dreamed that Chu Chen's elaborate performance was ultimately just to interfere with their line of reconnaissance!

Such top-tier Anti-Reconnaissance ability made even them, these professional criminal investigators, feel inferior!

And at this very moment, they also deeply realized the terror of this criminal genius!

At the same time!

While the pursuit team was feeling dejected, Chu Chen had already successfully boarded a plane to France by relying on the Hong Kong identity he had previously acquired!

The flight from Hong Kong to France was not very long.

In just one night, he appeared on the streets of Paris without anyone knowing, ready to start his own criminal plan!

In order to achieve a Perfect Reproduction of the Four Horsemen's magic-based bank robbery, after arriving in France, Chu Chen immediately came to the street of the French National Bank, preparing to pick a target to serve as a tool for his crime this time!
