Is This Even Human Language

Police station.

"You've successfully apprehended the fugitive. Your reward: hypnosis skills."

The reward was credited just as the criminal was brought into the station.

Xu Mo began to study the usage of hypnosis techniques briefly.

Meanwhile, the other officers conducted tests on all the raw materials brought back from the barbecue stand.

Finally, they discovered a large amount of powdered opium poppy shells in the barbecue seasoning.

Han Fei took the test results to the interrogation room.

He waved the report in front of the barbecue stand owner before opening it.

"These are the test results for your barbecue seasoning. Tell me, where did you get that stuff?"

Upon seeing the report, the barbecue stand owner fell silent immediately.

With the test results right in front of him, there was no point in further denial. He had to tell the truth: "I grew it myself."

Han Fei continued questioning, "How much did you grow in total?"

"Officer, I know I was wrong. I was just blinded by greed, I..."

Before he could finish, Han Fei interrupted him.

"Don't change the subject. I asked you how much you grew in total?"

"Four hundred and ninety-nine plants... Officer, I looked it up online. Growing less than five hundred plants isn't a criminal offense, it's just an administrative violation. You can only detain me for fifteen days at most..." the barbecue stand owner said weakly.

Han Fei snorted.

"Oh, so you specifically looked that up? Then you knowingly broke the law, didn't you?"

Xu Mo, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but ask,

"We can only detain him for fifteen days? Isn't that punishment a bit too light?"

"Just for growing it for observation, the maximum sentence is indeed fifteen days..." Han Fei said, then changed his tone: "But intentionally adding it to food is a much more serious crime. In severe cases, it can lead to several years in prison."

Xu Mo nodded in satisfaction.

"That sounds more appropriate... Well then, Han, now that we have the results, I'll head back if there's nothing else."

"Alright, you can go," Han Fei nodded.

Xu Mo turned and left the interrogation room.

He went to meet up with the four people waiting in the lobby.

After about ten seconds, Han Fei suddenly seemed to remember something.

He also left the interrogation room to catch up with Xu Mo.

Finally, he saw Xu Mo, who hadn't yet left the lobby.

"Xu Mo, wait up, I need to tell you something."

"What is it, Han?"

"Don't drive that car of yours to the police station tomorrow. It doesn't comply with regulations. A car worth over 3 million... I know you're wealthy, but others don't. Just imagine what people might think about our police station if they see that."

Before Xu Mo could respond, An Youyi, who was standing beside him, nodded thoughtfully.

"I think so too. Coming to work at the police station in a 3-million-yuan luxury car is too flashy. I just ordered a Porsche Cayenne for daily use. Why don't we swap cars? Mine is cheaper."

Han Fei: "???"

Is this even human speech!?

Do you realize what you're saying??

Cayenne... cheap?

Not only Han Fei, but Xu Mo also looked at An Youyi with surprise.

This girl probably doesn't even know how to spell "cheap"...

A 3-million-yuan car is considered luxury, but a 1-million-plus car isn't?

That's still a luxury car, for crying out loud!

"Han, that's the only car I have. If I can't drive it, I'd have to buy another one, which would be a waste of money... Can't you make an exception? Starting tomorrow, I'll park the car in the parking lot east of the police station and walk from there. I promise no one will know I'm driving a luxury car to work."

Han Fei thought for a moment and felt that Xu Mo's method... wasn't entirely unreasonable. Mainly because forcing Xu Mo to buy another car didn't seem right.

However, just as he was about to agree, he suddenly remembered that Xu Mo had a black Volkswagen. He was driving that car when the show first started.

Is that what he calls having only one car?

Realizing this, Han Fei prepared to reject Xu Mo's request.

"No, don't try to fool me. You still have that Volkswagen, don't think I don't know..."

"I've already sold that car. I only have one now," Xu Mo anticipated Han Fei's words and told a little white lie.

He hadn't actually sold that car yet, but with a new car, who would want to drive an old one every day?

Then, without waiting for Han Fei to speak, he continued, "So it's settled then. Thanks for understanding, Han! See you tomorrow!"

With that, he led the four people away from the police station, giving Han Fei no chance to respond.

Han Fei: "???"

Wait, who settled anything?

He hadn't agreed yet!

But then Han Fei reconsidered. If Xu Mo really only had that one car now, buying another one just for work would indeed be wasteful.

According to Xu Mo's suggestion, not driving the car directly into the police station but parking it in a nearby lot and walking from there wasn't a bad idea.

So, he decided to let it go!

...

After dealing with the newly arrested individuals, many police officers gathered together and started discussing Xu Mo again.

"This Xu Mo seems to have some skills. It's only his first day, and he first caught a wanted criminal with his own hands, then went with me and Little Wang to arrest those two Indians, and now he's reported another one. In just one day, he's been involved in three cases, and all of them were solved."

"He does seem capable. I think we might have underestimated him a bit..."

"There's more. My friend in Jiangcheng City told me that Xu Mo was also involved in a case there with Han. Because of that case, the police station there is praising him like he's some kind of genius!"

"He was involved in a case in Jiangcheng too? What exactly happened? Tell us."

"They say he discovered the key clue in that case. Not only that, but he also conducted an interrogation alone. Apparently, the criminal refused to talk even after being interrogated by multiple officers all night. Even Han couldn't get him to talk, but Xu Mo made the criminal confess everything with just two sentences."

"Is it really that amazing? A criminal that even Han couldn't handle, but Xu Mo could? Are you sure your friend isn't pulling your leg..."

"I'm not sure about the details. That's just what he told me. If we want to know the exact situation, I think we should ask Han. He should know!"

"..."
