"What? Return? Wouldn't that delay things... Weren't they said to be on an urgent mission?" The airport manager was completely dumbfounded.
Up until now, he had genuinely believed Xu Mo was a police officer, with complete conviction!
And he also believed Xu Mo really was on some kind of urgent mission. After all, Xu Mo had left on a plane dispatched by the police, and the plane itself was proof of his identity.
Now, telling the control tower to call the plane back... If something went wrong, he wouldn't be able to bear the responsibility!
"Bullshit urgent mission!" Han Fei shook his head, "Those people weren't cops at all, they were fugitives. Don't worry about all that, just do as I said and notify the tower right away."
Hearing Han Fei say this, the airport manager was even more confused.
Fugitives?
He had checked specifically.
The plane that had just taken off was definitely dispatched to the airport by the police.
How could fugitives get a plane specially dispatched by the police?
How could they brazenly get on a police plane?
That was impossible!
No matter how arrogant the fugitive, they wouldn't do that.
Suddenly, it was as if the airport manager thought of something. He instinctively took a step back.
Since the previous five people weren't fugitives...
Then that meant the group in front of him now was lying.
In that moment, the airport manager's mind ran wild.
He even started doubting Han Fei and the others' identities.
He looked at Han Fei warily.
"You're cops? Do you have any way to prove...that you're cops?"
Han Fei: "???"
The police officers: "???"
They'd been doubted?!
As soon as they heard this, the livestream viewers blew up.
"Hahahaha they were actually doubted about their identities!"
"Asking the cops to prove they're cops, you gotta say this airport manager is pretty gutsy too. I'm cracking up!"
"Han Fei: Oh no, I've become the bad guy!?"
"Good lord, he doesn't doubt Xu Mo but doubts Han Fei instead?"
"Can't blame him. Xu Mo acted too well. Plus he did leave on a police plane, so it's hard not to believe him."
"......"
Han Fei stared at the airport manager in astonishment.
Truthfully, it was common for police officers to have their identities doubted while on duty.
The main reason was that people's security awareness was too high nowadays.
He'd had the experience of being mistaken for a scammer while on duty many times.
However, Han Fei wasn't angry about being doubted. In fact, he was a little happy.
Because stronger public security awareness was a good thing.
But this time...
He just couldn't make himself happy!
The airport manager had chosen to believe Xu Mo over him!?
What, was he more villainous compared to Xu Mo?
After a few seconds of shock...
Han Fei took out his police ID and gun, waving them in the airport manager's face a couple times.
"Police ID, police gun, believe me now?"
Seeing Han Fei holding these two items, especially the black Type 92 handgun, he finally stopped doubting Han Fei's identity.
He nodded, "I believe you...I believe you."
Then he looked at Han Fei apologetically.
"Sorry, just now..."
"Forget it," Han Fei impatiently waved his hand, "Notify the tower, hurry up!"
The airport manager was still hesitant.
Mostly because Xu Mo had tricked him too thoroughly earlier.
Even now, he firmly believed Xu Mo was a police officer carrying out an urgent mission.
As for Han Fei coming to obstruct Xu Mo's mission... He thought it was just police department infighting or factional disputes!
When immortals fight, mortals suffer.
He didn't want to suffer.
So before notifying the tower, he made his stance clear first.
"Comrade, I'll listen to you, but if something happens, I won't take any responsibility for it..."
Han Fei: "......Just do it. I'll take responsibility if anything happens."
He really wondered,
Just what kind of hypnotic potion did Xu Mo feed this guy?
Why was he so firmly convinced Xu Mo was a cop?
Hearing Han Fei say this, the airport manager finally felt reassured enough to notify the tower.
......
In the sky.
The cockpit door of an airplane was open.
Xu Mo was currently leaning against the doorframe chatting with the two pilots.
"Hey comrade, why don't you go back and sit down... Leaning on the door is pretty dangerous. What if we hit some turbulence or something..." The captain was urging Xu Mo to return to his seat and buckle up.
Xu Mo smiled and scratched his head.
"No worries, I'm holding on. If we do hit turbulence I'll quickly find a seat. I won't cause you guys any trouble. I just wanted to see what it looks like from the cockpit. Can't do this on commercial flights. Don't get many chances... I'm pretty curious."
Although that's what he said,
Xu Mo actually had zero interest in how to fly a plane.
The reason he rushed to the cockpit after the plane completed its ascent
was because he was worried the pursuit team would play dirty and order the airport to have the plane turn back.
Although it was unlikely the pursuit team could make it to the airport that quickly...
Xu Mo preferred to plan for the worst case.
Whether or not there was a possibility of this scenario actually happening, he would prepare countermeasures ahead of time.
Better safe than sorry.
Just then, the airplane's wireless radio sounded.
"MF1029, MF1029, instructions from higher authority, you are to immediately turn around and land at Xiaoshan Airport..."
The moment this voice rang out,
Xu Mo realized Han Fei had indeed brought people to pursue them at the airport.
And as he'd guessed, Han Fei was using the tactic of ordering the plane to turn back.
Xu Mo narrowed his eyes, thinking to himself that it was good he came prepared.
Otherwise...he might have really been caught by Han Fei today.
"Uh..." The captain paused in surprise.
They'd just taken off not long ago. Why did they need to turn back already?
Weren't they supposed to be on an urgent mission?
Although very confused, the captain still responded:
"MF1029 received, turning back immedi..."
Before he could finish speaking,
the captain felt something cool press against the back of his neck.
He could clearly feel that the thing currently aimed at the back of his neck
was a gun!
Xu Mo's voice came from behind him.
"No turning back. Continue on the original flight path. I'll shoot you if you try to turn back."
Hearing this, the captain confirmed it.
The thing poking the back of his neck really was a gun!
Having a gun pointed at you feels awful.
The captain involuntarily swallowed.
"O-Okay, let's talk nicely big bro. I'll keep flying the route, you put the gun down first, careful it goes off."
......
At the same time.
On the ground.
The conversation between the captain and Xu Mo was broadcast through the airplane's radio.
"MF1029 received, turning back immedi..."
"No turning back. Continue on the original flight path. I'll shoot you if you try to turn back."
"O-Okay, let's talk nicely big bro. I'll keep flying the route, you put the gun down first, careful it goes off."
Han Fei listening nearby heard it clear as day.
Han Fei: "???"
What was going on?
Xu Mo brought a gun onto the plane!?
