In the blink of an eye, Xu Mo had just been thinking about how generous the reward for this mission would be.
In the next moment, a system notification sounded in his mind.
The reward had arrived.
"You successfully fooled the Hangcheng police and the investigation team, and you have earned a choice of four rewards."
"Reward 1: Zhifubao cracked version for getting rich."
"Reward 2: Fifty wild pandas."
"Reward 3: Diga Ultraman transformation device."
"Reward 4: +10 increase in physical strength and +10 increase in agility."
The rewards this time were indeed quite generous.
However, something seemed off about all of them.
With a quick scan, Xu Mo was dumbfounded.
What on earth was the cracked version of Zhifubao?
An unlimited balance version?
Well, it did sound tempting.
Choosing this reward could also work.
But the problem was that this reward was too extreme!
He didn't dare to choose it...
Fifty wild pandas.
This was even more absurd.
They were national treasures, for heaven's sake.
Anyone could raise them?
Let alone fifty, even raising one would be a huge challenge.
This reward... was even more extreme than the cracked version of Zhifubao!
Clearly, it couldn't be chosen at random.
The third reward—Diga Ultraman transformation device.
Wow!
How fascinating!
He could transform into Ultraman anytime, anywhere!
With this gadget, what threat would the investigation team pose?
Even if they had completely surrounded Xu Mo, he wouldn't be worried.
He could just transform into Diga Ultraman.
The investigation team would be a joke in front of Xu Mo.
One laser beam and even the little monsters would be done for, let alone the investigation team.
This reward was good, indeed.
But it could only bring temporary satisfaction.
You see, there was a time limit for the transformation.
During the transformation, he would indeed be very powerful.
But what about after the transformation ended?
Wouldn't he be captured and studied for a lifetime?
Not appropriate, cannot choose...
The first three rewards were all eliminated.
In front of Xu Mo, there was only the last reward left.
"I choose Reward 4!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Mo's physical strength and agility immediately increased by ten points each.
Almost the moment he gained the enhancement, Xu Mo felt like a completely different person.
Refreshed and invigorated!
But don't underestimate these enhancements.
There's a saying that goes, "In martial arts, speed is paramount."
And there's another saying, "One force can overcome ten thousand techniques."
The two factors that determine combat effectiveness, Xu Mo had them both.
His strength and speed were maxed out, and he even felt like he could knock out a boxing champion.
Of course, this was just Xu Mo's feeling.
As for how well he could actually fight...
He didn't know himself.
Because Xu Mo currently didn't have the opportunity for a real battle...
Downstairs.
Han Fei and his team had just gotten into the car, ready to leave.
Suddenly, as if realizing something, Han Fei said to Chen Ke, "Wait, let's not drive off yet!"
"What's wrong, Han Team?" Chen Ke asked, puzzled.
"We were too hasty. We missed a crucial step," Han Fei said, then rolled down the car window.
He then spoke to the four police officers in the parked car next to them.
"Xiao Jiang, you four go upstairs and check the person in Room 888. See if he's really Zhang Wei or if he's Xu Mo in disguise."
Upon hearing this, the four officers didn't say much. Without a word, they opened the car doors and got out, preparing to go back and conduct the investigation.
"Wait a moment," Shen Manyi said as she took out a makeup remover from her bag and handed it to the four police officers. "Just wipe it on his face with this, and you'll know."
"Okay," Officer Xiao Jiang took the makeup remover.
Han Fei gave one last instruction.
"We don't have much time to waste. Let's split up. We'll leave first, and you guys go up to inspect. If everything is fine, meet up with us... and be careful."
The four officers nodded with smiles.
They patted their holsters simultaneously.
"Don't worry, Captain Han. Even if he's the real Xu Mo, we'll be fine. We have our guns. You go ahead, and we'll check it out and join you later."
With that, the four of them turned around and entered the club once again.
Han Fei only arranged for the four officers to go up because they didn't have much time left.
Taking a desperate gamble was clearly lacking.
If they let the real Xu Mo escape because of suspicion, it would be a huge loss.
Therefore, they had to split up.
While the four officers entered the club once again, Han Fei and his team drove away.
They were ready to capture the 'real' Xu Mo.
"Han, there's no need for this, right? We're already sure that the person upstairs is not Xu Mo," Chen Ke, who was driving, said.
Han Fei smiled lightly.
"Better safe than sorry. There's a 99% chance that Xu Mo is playing the old switcheroo, but there's a 1% chance he's acting and trying to deceive us."
"Although that possibility is very low, we still need to check. I forgot to do it earlier because I was in a hurry, but it's not too late now. Let Xiao Jiang and the others investigate. Splitting up won't delay our time."
...
Inside the private room.
Xu Mo had just picked up the car keys from the table, ready to leave.
However, as soon as he opened the door of the private room, he came face to face with four police officers.
Xu Mo was slightly taken aback.
What's going on?
Didn't they leave? Why did they turn back?
Just as Xu Mo was bewildered, one of the officers waved at him.
"Don't be nervous. We just need to confirm your identity. It'll be quick."
After saying that, the officer took out the makeup remover Shen Manyi gave him and prepared to squeeze it onto his hand and apply it to Xu Mo's face.
Upon seeing this action from the officer, Xu Mo couldn't help but smile.
"This old fox... Even though I acted so convincingly, he still has doubts."
At this moment, Xu Mo's aura, voice, and even demeanor were completely different from before.
The four officers felt a slight tension.
There's a problem!
This seems to be the real Xu Mo!
Without hesitation, they prepared to draw their guns and shoot.
However, the next second, the officers were stunned.
Their holsters... were empty!
Where are the guns?
They were perfectly fine in the holsters earlier.
Lost!?
For a moment, the officers felt a bit panicked.
Losing their service weapons during a mission was a major mistake!
Suddenly, Xu Mo's voice sounded in front of the four officers.
"Are you looking for these?"
The four officers no longer focused on their empty holsters.
Instead, they looked up at Xu Mo.
They saw Xu Mo holding four guns in his hand.
Officers: "???"
When did the guns end up in Xu Mo's hands?
Originally, the four individuals believed that Xu Mo would shoot at them once he obtained the gun.
They were preparing to seize it.
However, to their surprise, Xu Mo seemed completely uninterested in these guns.
Instead, he hung the gun from his finger and handed it back to them, saying, "Here you go. If you can't even keep something this important, be more careful next time."
The police officers were even more baffled.
Everyone had said that Xu Mo was clever, elusive, and difficult to catch.
But now... well, well.
He turned out to be a fool!
Having a weapon but not using it, and even returning it. What else could you call that but foolish?
Without hesitation, Officer Xiao Jiang took one of the guns back from Xu Mo's hand.
And without mercy, he pointed the barrel of the gun at Xu Mo.
"Hands on your head, get down."
"Tsk, tsk... Even when given a chance, you're useless," Xu Mo sneered.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Mo had just been thinking about how generous the reward for this mission would be.
In the next moment, a system notification sounded in his mind.
