Standing at the doorway, Han Fei looked at the other three people.
"Are you ready?"
They all nodded.
Chen Ke even made a show of rolling up his sleeves.
He couldn't wait to rush in and give Xu Mo a good beating.
Because this guy had made him lose face in front of so many viewers in the livestream room. If he didn't give him a good thrashing, Chen Ke would never be able to let go of his anger!
In the next second, Han Fei pressed the doorbell.
Xu Mo and his group turned their attention to the mansion's entrance.
"Are they your guests?" Xu Mo asked.
An Youyi didn't even hesitate and shook her head directly.
"Definitely not. I've never stayed here before, and guests wouldn't come to this place either."
Before Xu Mo could ask further, she added, "I didn't order any delivery either."
Xu Mo stared at the front door without expression.
It wasn't a guest, nor was it a delivery person, and An Youyi had already said she hadn't stayed here, which meant it couldn't be a courier either.
The person who rang the doorbell was likely from the investigation team.
Zhou Qiaoqiao also thought of this and a look of panic appeared on her face.
"It couldn't be the investigation team, could it?"
As soon as she said that, both Yang Jingxuan and An Youyi panicked, "The investigation team? What should we do?"
"Could it be the property management?" Li Jiaxin nervously stared at the front door and asked.
Compared to the four of them, Xu Mo appeared unusually calm.
There wasn't a hint of panic on his face.
Because from the beginning, Xu Mo had already figured out how to handle the situation.
Even if the investigation team found their way here, he wasn't afraid.
So, what Xu Mo needed to do now was to confirm whether the person who rang the doorbell was indeed from the investigation team.
"We'll know if we use the peephole."
Walking to the position behind the door, Xu Mo searched for a while but couldn't find the peephole.
He couldn't help but turn his head and look at An Youyi.
"Isn't there a peephole on your door?"
He couldn't understand.
An Youyi was so wealthy, she even bought a mansion, so why didn't she install a decent door?
There wasn't even a peephole!
"What's a peephole?" An Youyi seemed a bit puzzled.
Xu Mo was momentarily taken aback, then explained.
"It's a small eye on the door, about the size of a one-yuan coin. Before opening the door, you can look through the peephole to see who is outside. If it's a stranger, you don't have to open the door."
Pausing for a moment, Xu Mo kindly added, "It's better to change to a door with a peephole. The peephole is important. At least before opening the door, you can see who is outside. It's safer..."
Xu Mo hadn't finished speaking yet.
An Youyi walked to the door and pressed a button on the electronic screen next to it.
"I understand what you mean. The peephole you mentioned should be similar to this, right? There's a camera at the entrance, and pressing this button allows you to see what's outside."
Xu Mo: "..."
He was dumbfounded.
The clown turned out to be himself.
Originally, it was a well-intentioned reminder.
But it turned into unnecessary worry.
And it exposed the fact that he didn't know about this.
There was no peephole because people didn't need such outdated gadgets.
In the entrance of a wealthy person's house, there would be cameras...
The electronic screen connected to a hidden wide-angle camera outside the door.
With just a click, the wide-angle camera can capture the situation at the door and display it in high definition. This thing is way better than a cat's eye.
The viewers in the live chat room started flooding the barrage at this moment.
"Xu Mo: 'You'd Better Get a Door with a Cat's Eye'"
"Xu Mo: 'The Importance of a Cat's Eye'"
"Hahaha, this is hilarious! Xu Mo doesn't know about this!"
"Oh no, it's ruined. Millions of viewers now know that Xu Mo is clueless."
..."
Through the electronic screen beside the door, Xu Mo and his companions saw the situation outside. Standing there were the four members of the investigation team.
Upon seeing this, Zhou Qiaoqiao, Yang Jingxuan, An Youyi, and Li Jiaxin were completely panicked.
"What should we do? They've found us."
"Are we just going to let ourselves get caught?"
"It's over... I was hoping to make a big move on the show, but now we might get caught without doing anything..."
"Don't we have an alert system? How did it fail to give us an early warning?"
Unlike them, Xu Mo appeared unusually calm. It was as if the investigation team outside had nothing to do with him at all.
In reality, Xu Mo was so composed because he had already anticipated this outcome long ago. He wasn't the kind of person who took things step by step; instead, he would calculate all possible situations before embarking on a task and prepare for the worst-case scenarios.
By being prepared in advance, he could find a way out in critical moments.
Xu Mo had a trump card. Even though he didn't know how the investigation team bypassed the alert system he had set up, he had a plan for dealing with this situation. And that trump card was Li Jiaxin, the skilled martial artist.
"What should we do, Xu Mo?" Yang Jingxuan tugged at Xu Mo's sleeve. She knew that at a time like this, their hopes rested on Xu Mo.
It wasn't just Yang Jingxuan; the other three also looked at Xu Mo one after another.
"What should we do?" Xu Mo smiled and said, "Just go with the flow. Since they've come knocking on our door, we can't do much about it. Let's surrender."
After a pause, he continued, "Anyway, the money extorted from the show and the gold bars we robbed from the bank are enough for me to live a carefree life. If I get caught, so be it."
This decision caught everyone by surprise. Xu Mo actually chose to give up at such a crucial moment.
"But how can that be? I just joined the show and haven't done anything yet. I don't want it to end like this!" Li Jiaxin said.
Seeing this, a barely noticeable smile appeared on Xu Mo's face, only to vanish in an instant. This was exactly what he wanted!
In the next moment, Xu Mo looked at Li Jiaxin with a troubled expression.
"There might be a way... but it depends on whether you have the guts."
"What method? I'll do anything as long as I don't get caught!" Li Jiaxin replied without hesitation.
"Perhaps... would you dare to attack the police?"
Li Jiaxin: "???"
Zhou Qiaoqiao: "???"
Yang Jingxuan: "???"
An Youyi: "???"
Wow, this was Xu Mo's plan?
Attack the police? Is he crazy?
Seeing the astonished expressions of the four, Xu Mo shrugged.
"If you dare not, then there's nothing more to say. Open the door and surrender."
Li Jiaxin was indeed his trump card.
But even Li Jiaxin herself didn't know that she was Xu Mo's secret weapon.
Xu Mo didn't inform Li Jiaxin in advance because he was afraid that if he did, she would back down.
After all, not everyone dares to attack the police.
He knew that people needed to be pushed.
In extremely urgent situations, it was easier to make impulsive decisions.
For example...attacking the police!
To make the situation even more urgent and force Li Jiaxin to make the most impulsive decision, Xu Mo directly opened the door.
After opening the door, he smiled at the four members of the pursuit team and revealed a set of white teeth.
At this moment, Xu Mo hadn't completely disguised himself with a common face, so the pursuit team could still recognize him.
Xu Mo was smiling.
Han Fei instinctively felt that something was not right.
When this guy smiled, it couldn't be anything good!
In the next second, a fist as large as a sandbag smashed into his face, and he didn't even have time to react.
Because he didn't expect Xu Mo to punch him right from the start.
At this moment, the only thought in Han Fei's mind was:
Has Xu Mo gone crazy??
As Xu Mo threw a punch, he also turned his head to look at Li Jiaxin.
"Why are you just standing there? Take action! Hit him!"
