Who Leaked the News

Xu Mo had already made up his mind.

He planned to solve the problem of entering the secret room in the simplest way possible.

Rather than wasting time figuring out how to open the door, why not just smash it?

Simple, brutal, and highly efficient.

"A hammer... We don't have a big one, but there's a small one," the woman shook her head.

"The small one will do, bring it to me."

Hearing this, the woman immediately went to fetch a toolbox.

It belonged to her husband.

Men always liked to collect such little gadgets, even if they never used them.

Taking the toolbox, Xu Mo opened it and took a look.

There was indeed a small hammer inside.

Besides that, there were wrenches, screwdrivers, and other similar items.

In the end, Xu Mo selectively took out the small hammer and a screwdriver from the toolbox.

It might be small, but it should be enough to chisel open the door.

Xu Mo planned to chisel open the secret room door next door once the investigation team left.

...

Meanwhile.

In room 2012.

A man was staring at the police officers outside his door.

A bitter smile hung on his face.

Just moments ago.

This man had been sleeping soundly when he was awakened by knocking. Grumpy from being woken up, he had unleashed a torrent of abuse at the police officers.

He had even cursed their ancestors back eighteen generations.

Only after his outburst did he realize.

The people in front of him were all wearing police uniforms... they were actual police officers.

He had just hurled insults at them without rhyme or reason!

Fortunately, he hadn't gotten physical.

Otherwise, he could have been charged with assaulting an officer.

Scratching his head.

"Uh... haha, well, I just woke up, my eyes were a bit blurry, I'm sorry, officer!"

Being cursed at so viciously, and with such offensive language.

Anyone would find it hard to tolerate.

But the problem was, they couldn't curse back.

After all, they were live streaming now, and if they retaliated verbally or physically at this moment, it would affect the reputation of police officers in general.

Han Fei's face had turned extremely dark.

When he spoke, his tone was noticeably heavier.

He took out his badge to show the man, then said without a hint of emotion.

"We suspect there are criminals in your room, we need to search it, please cooperate."

Having just woken up, the man's brain was still a bit slow.

Without much thought, he nodded: "Cooperate... of course I'll cooperate."

Having obtained the room owner's consent, Han Fei led the officers into the room.

However, at this moment, the man seemed to suddenly remember something.

His eyes widened abruptly.

"No! You can't go in!"

He tried to block Han Fei and his team.

Hearing this, Chen Ke almost instinctively pinned the man against the wall, making his face have an intimate encounter with the cold surface.

It happened so fast, with a smack, that the man didn't even have time to react before he was pinned.

"Captain Han, this guy's up to something!" Chen Ke said.

Of course, Han Fei had noticed it too.

Such strange behavior, what else could it be but suspicious?

He immediately ordered his officers: "Search thoroughly!"

...

Two minutes later.

The officers who had entered to search returned to Han Fei.

"Captain Han, we've searched everything, no one's there."

"No one?" Han Fei asked puzzled: "Then why was he so nervous?"

The officer smiled and replied.

"He has an inflatable girlfriend on his bed, probably didn't want anyone to see it."

Han Fei: "..."

What did he think it was!?

All this fuss for that!?

The man pinned to the wall by Chen Ke was blushing from embarrassment, the redness spreading down to his neck.

He didn't want the police to enter because of this.

After all, who would want others to know they had an inflatable girlfriend?

Wouldn't that be utterly mortifying?

Moreover, there were quite a few officers present.

Even more mortifying!

However, what he didn't know was that.

It wasn't just the officers present who now knew about his inflatable girlfriend.

There were also millions of viewers in the live stream.

His journey of social death was just beginning.

Chen Ke released the man he had pinned to the wall, and patted his shoulder, saying with a half-smile.

"Sorry about that, brother, didn't hurt you, did I? I thought you were hiding criminals in there, what a misunderstanding... It's okay, it's just an inflatable girlfriend, nothing to be ashamed of. At least you're better than those who break the law!"

As he said this, Chen Ke deliberately raised his voice.

He even glanced at the miniature camera on Shen Manyi's collar.

This guy had cursed at Chen Ke earlier, and Chen Ke hadn't forgotten.

Due to professional ethics, he couldn't talk back or use force.

But slightly annoying the man was still acceptable!

Since the fugitives weren't hiding in this room, Han Fei didn't waste any more time there.

Instead, he gathered his team and left.

After all the officers had left.

The man couldn't help but curse under his breath: "Fuck!"

It was so damn embarrassing!

But at least, only those officers knew about it.

As long as people who knew him didn't find out, it would be fine.

However, the next second.

His phone suddenly rang several times.

He took it out and looked.

All the messages were from people he knew.

A drinking buddy: Hey man, I heard you've got an inflatable girlfriend at home? (surprised.jpg)

Coworker: Your girlfriend, can you send me a picture? (smirk.jpg)

There was a pile of similar messages.

It was as if the whole world suddenly knew about his inflatable girlfriend!

Even his father sent a voice message at this time.

The content of the voice message: Son, it's okay to relax a bit, but take care of your health, you hear?

At the end of the message, there was a sigh from his old father, disappointed in his son.

The man: "???"

Damn... who? Who leaked the information!?

After calming down for a moment.

The man opened a ticket booking app.

He couldn't stay here anymore.

He decided to move to a different city!

...

After leaving room 2012, Han Fei furrowed his brow once again.

He felt like he had overlooked something very important.

Which part of the process had gone wrong?

Where were these two fugitives hiding?

Staring at the white walls in the corridor, Han Fei fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, he slapped his thigh.

The wall!

"I think I know where those two are hiding!" Han Fei said excitedly.

"Where?" Chen Ke asked.

Han Fei pointed at the wall: "If I'm not mistaken, they're behind the wall."

Chen Ke looked confused.

Behind the wall?

How could someone hide behind a wall, could these two criminals pass through walls or something?

Seeing Chen Ke's confused expression, Han Fei explained.

"Haven't you noticed that the structures of rooms 2010, 2011, and 2012 are different? To be precise, 2011 is different from 2010 and 2012, it's smaller by a whole section!"

Then, relying on his memory, Han Fei walked along the white wall in the corridor, gesturing as he went.

"Let me roughly sketch it out for you. We've been in all three rooms. Room 2012's range is from this line to this line, 2010's range is from this line to this line. Logically, the space left in the middle should be the range of room 2011, but what we saw when we went in earlier wasn't like this. The range of room 2011 was only from this line to this line."

At this point, Han Fei paused.

Then he continued, gesturing on the white wall in the corridor.

"There's a part left out in the middle, which means that the area of 2011 we saw when we went in is much smaller than the actual area of 2011. There's very likely a secret room in 2011!"
