"No need to call the police, we are the police officers here to arrest you. You've already committed a crime," Xu Mo said as he finished speaking.
The two Indian men were dumbfounded.
They had been so immersed in their joy that their minds weren't clear.
They were only thinking about guarding against these three people stealing their money.
They even tried to intimidate the others by threatening to call the police.
But they hadn't noticed that these three people were actually police officers who had arrived in a police car!
And from what Xu Mo said, they came here specifically to arrest the two of them.
This was awkward.
In the next second, the two Indian men instinctively threw the money in their hands towards their accomplice.
Then they started to pass the buck.
Attempting to push all the blame onto their partner.
"This has nothing to do with me, he forced me to do it!"
"He made me help him dig out the ATM machine!"
Xu Mo: "..."
"Alright, let's discuss this at the police station."
Hearing this, the two Indians realized this matter wouldn't be easily brushed off.
So without another word, they dropped the money and ran off in two opposite directions.
They were both very fast, like rabbits, disappearing a good distance in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this, Xu Mo and the other two officers sprang into action.
They chased after the two in different directions.
The two officers, in perfect sync, both chose to chase the one on the left, while Xu Mo was responsible for pursuing the one on the right.
Xu Mo's speed was considerably faster than the Indian man.
So much so that the Indian he was chasing hadn't run more than a few steps before Xu Mo caught up and pinned him to the ground.
Xu Mo took out the handcuffs recently issued by the department and cuffed the man's hands behind his back, then dragged him to the police car.
He didn't plan to go help the others.
The reason was that it wasn't necessary. Although the Indian man's escape speed was fast, the two officers weren't pushovers either. They would definitely catch him, so Xu Mo didn't need to intervene. He could just wait patiently.
With nothing else to do, he decided to light a cigarette and smoke while watching the two officers chase the suspect.
On the other side.
The two officers were still in pursuit of the fleeing Indian man.
"Stop! Keep running... let's see where you can go today!"
...
Two minutes later.
After their joint efforts to corner him, they finally managed to catch the Indian man.
One of the officers took out his handcuffs and cuffed the suspect.
After securing him, one officer took a deep breath and said, "Let's go help Xu Mo, he probably can't catch the other Indian guy alone."
"Alright, let's go!"
However, as soon as they turned around.
Both officers were stunned.
They saw Xu Mo leaning against the police car, smoking.
As for the other Indian man, he had already been caught by Xu Mo, handcuffed and thrown next to the police car!
Seeing that they had also caught their suspect, Xu Mo extinguished his cigarette, tossing the completely put-out butt into a nearby trash can.
Then he opened the car door and shoved the Indian man he had caught into the vehicle.
"I've already packed up the money from the ATM and put it in the car. What should we do about the excavator and the ATM machine? Should we call someone to tow them away?"
The two officers exchanged glances, feeling a bit embarrassed.
It had taken them so long to catch one person together.
In contrast, Xu Mo had caught one person by himself.
And from the looks of it...
Xu Mo seemed to have caught his suspect quite a while ago.
He even had time to pack up the money these two Indians had stolen from the ATM, put it in the car, and even smoke a cigarette!
So, were their speeds slower than Xu Mo, the newcomer?
Where could they, as seniors, put their faces?
After being stunned for a few seconds.
One of the officers spoke up.
"Just take the people and the money back, and bring the keys to the excavator. We can leave the excavator and ATM machine here. Contact someone to tow them away. No one can move these two big things quickly, so don't worry about it."
...
On the way back to the police station.
"Xu Mo, your physical condition is pretty good. Have you trained before? Were you an athlete in school?"
These two officers had participated in many arrest operations.
So they knew how fast criminals could run.
Because of the fear of being caught, criminals' adrenaline would surge, making them run incredibly fast and hard to catch.
For Xu Mo to catch the suspect before them, he must have trained in sports.
Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense.
"No, I haven't. Is there anything to train for?"
Officers: "..."
For an ordinary person who hadn't deliberately trained to be faster than them, officers who frequently carried out arrest missions... it didn't seem scientific!
If this got out, where would they, as police officers, put their faces?
Thinking of this, both of them silently made a resolution in their hearts.
After returning this time, they needed to step up their training.
At least they couldn't lose to Xu Mo!
It's worth noting that not long ago, they were discussing how Xu Mo lacked ability, considering him just a pretty face.
But now... Xu Mo's speed was actually faster than theirs!?
How could this be acceptable?
If the universally acknowledged "pretty boy" was stronger than them, what did that make them? Useless?
...
Xu Mo chatted briefly with the two arrested Indian men, with a hint of confusion.
He mainly wanted to interview these two men with peculiar thought processes, to understand exactly what mindset led them to dig out an ATM machine.
The two Indian men were quite cooperative.
They told everything honestly.
"We had no money, and when you have no money, you have to do something. Working is definitely not an option... robbing an ATM brings money quickly."
Xu Mo continued to ask.
"Where did you get the excavator if you had no money? This thing isn't cheap. The 240,000 in the ATM isn't even enough for one excavator. You stole the excavator, didn't you?"
Hearing this, the Indian men chose to remain selectively silent.
The excavator was indeed stolen.
How could they possibly have money to buy an excavator?
If it wasn't stolen, where else could it have come from?
But they didn't intend to tell the truth.
After all, admitting it would mean an additional charge!
Digging out the ATM was enough to put them away for a while. Adding theft of an excavator, how much longer would they have to stay inside!?
Although the two Indian men didn't answer.
Xu Mo could roughly guess from their expressions: "It looks like it was stolen. Just confess honestly. Don't wait for us to investigate. What we find out on our own and what you confess yourselves are two different matters, with completely different natures..."
"..."
The officers couldn't understand a word of the conversation between Xu Mo and the two Indian men.
At this moment, both of them felt a bit strange inside.
Judging from Xu Mo's completely barrier-free communication with these two Indian men.
Xu Mo was clearly very proficient in Hindi.
In addition, they knew from the Sky Eye Action program that Xu Mo was fluent in Japanese and Korean.
That's already three foreign languages. Add in their native language, and it turns out Xu Mo is proficient in at least four languages?
Xu Mo wasn't simple. He didn't seem to be just a pretty face... but actually had some substance!
Because of this operation, the two officers' view of Xu Mo had already begun to change slightly.
At least they no longer thought of Xu Mo as someone who couldn't do anything but look good.
