Do We Really Need Such High Efficiency

Jiangcheng Police Station.

Just one minute ago, they received an emergency call.

There were robbers attempting to rob a bank!

This was reported by the bank teller.

In the bank, all tellers had a one-touch alarm button connected to the police network at their fingertips.

They pressed the alarm button the moment they saw two robbers enter, wearing stockings over their heads and wielding kitchen knives.

The police station nearest to the bank immediately dispatched officers upon receiving the alarm.

It took them only six minutes to arrive at the bank entrance.

However, when they got there, they discovered that the two robbers had already fled in panic, abandoning their knives after hearing the police sirens in advance.

It was a false alarm, fortunately with no one injured.

Typically, police officers use sirens for three reasons.

First, to save precious time.

Turning on the siren while en route signals other vehicles to give way, allowing them to reach the scene as quickly as possible.

Second, to intimidate criminals.

The unique and loud sound of police sirens is highly effective in deterring criminals in situations such as robberies, hostage situations, or ongoing assaults.

The sound arrives before the officers, and the early arrival of the siren can make criminals abandon their illegal activities or even flee the scene before the police physically arrive, potentially preventing harm to victims.

Although the time between criminals hearing the siren and the actual arrival of officers may only be a minute or even seconds, those few seconds could save a life.

The third reason is to reassure victims - don't be afraid, we're here.

Of course, whether to use sirens depends on the situation.

When conducting a secret operation to apprehend criminals in a major case, not only will they not use sirens, but the officers won't even drive police cars or wear uniforms.

In fact, no one might even realize it's a police operation until after the suspect is caught.

Experience proved the officers right.

Upon hearing the sirens, the two robbers immediately dropped their knives and ran without a second thought.

However, they didn't get far.

Officers at the station tracked their location in real-time through surveillance cameras, while simultaneously reporting the robbers' positions to their colleagues carrying out the arrest.

Before long, both were apprehended.

When the stockings were removed from their heads...

Well, well, weren't these the very fake fugitives whose identities they had just recently confirmed?

They were about to devise a plan to capture these individuals.

Who would have thought that before they could even formulate a concrete arrest strategy, two of them would deliver themselves right to their doorstep!

From the start of the game until now, it had been merely twenty minutes, and already some had been caught.

Viewers in the live streaming room were stunned.

"Damn, does the efficiency have to be this high? How long has it been?"

"Indeed, the speed of the police is beyond our imagination. Impressive!"

"66666666, I admit I was a bit loud when I previously said the police and investigation team weren't up to par. I apologize..."

"Twenty minutes... and this is just the police in action, without even involving the investigation team?"

"..."

Meanwhile.

The information about one group of 'fugitives' failing in their bank robbery attempt and being caught was also announced by the production team via text message to the remaining ten groups of 'fugitives'.

Xu Mo had just woken up from a nap when he picked up his phone and received this disheartening news.

With one group captured, it meant he had lost out on one system reward.

The game had barely begun, and someone was already caught?

Were these people even trying?

The investigation team was being unfair!

Starting off by picking the low-hanging fruit, really?

Why catch others? Come and catch him!

"I need to act quickly too, try to catch people before the investigation team does..." Xu Mo sat up in bed abruptly.

Getting dressed, washing up.

He needed to race against time, compete with the investigation team, strike first.

After washing up, Xu Mo turned on his computer, intending to hack into the production team's backend to obtain a list of 'fugitives', then proceed to capture the remaining nine groups of uncaught 'criminals' on the list, excluding himself.

However, just as Xu Mo had obtained the list and was contemplating how to catch people, his phone rang.

He picked it up and looked.

It was a text message from the production team.

Another group had been caught!

This group was apprehended while attempting to extort ransom from the investigation team.

This time it was the investigation team that made the move. They used technical means to pinpoint their location during the one-minute phone call the 'fugitives' made to the production team to demand ransom, and caught them on the spot!

At this point, only thirty-two minutes had passed since the official start of the game.

Half an hour, two groups of 'fugitives' caught!

Nine groups remaining.

But that wasn't all.

After fifty-some minutes.

Another group was caught.

This group was arrested because they tried to apply for pilot positions at an airline company by impersonating pilots.

Without Xu Mo's flawless forgery skills, they had to settle for using papers printed at a copy shop.

Their laughably fake pilot credentials were immediately exposed.

Attempting to apply for a pilot position with forged pilot credentials was no small matter.

The airline company immediately called security to detain the two and then sent them straight to the police station.

This time, not only did the investigation team not act, even the police didn't have to intervene.

The airline company staff alone apprehended these two 'fugitives' and sent them to the police station.

In less than two hours, out of eleven groups of 'fugitives', three had already been caught.

Only eight groups remained.

After receiving three consecutive pieces of devastating news,

Xu Mo was dumbfounded.

He hadn't managed to catch anyone yet!

Before he could even make a move to catch someone, three groups had already been captured by the investigation team and the police, and eliminated from the game.

Xu Mo knew clearly that he had to act fast.

...

The capture of three groups served as a wake-up call for the remaining seven groups, excluding Xu Mo.

Failed bank robbery leading to arrest; unsuccessful extortion attempt resulting in capture; exposed fake pilot credentials leading to detention...

It was clear that these three groups were trying to imitate Xu Mo.

But they all failed in their imitation and ended up getting caught instead.

These were bloody lessons.

While watching the live stream, everyone had the illusion of "I could do that too," which now completely vanished.

The things Xu Mo did weren't something just anyone could pull off.

Trying to actively commit crimes like Xu Mo was essentially asking to be caught.

It was better to just lay low and hide.

Among the remaining seven groups, excluding Xu Mo, six held this view. They didn't dare to act recklessly and only wanted to quietly lay low.

After all, surviving one day meant earning 200,000!

However, one group thought they were being clever.

They came up with what they believed to be the best method to avoid capture - seek refuge with Xu Mo!

If they stuck with Xu Mo, how could the investigation team catch them?

What they didn't know was...

Xu Mo was thinking about catching other game challengers to gain rewards.

Even Xu Mo couldn't have imagined that without him having to make a move, someone would deliver themselves right to his doorstep.

They were practically feeding themselves to him!
