"What do you mean I'm just bragging?" Han Fei got anxious upon hearing Director Wang's words: "Old Wang, you don't doubt that I'm lying to you, do you?"
Doubt? Why would I doubt? You're lying to me, aren't you? Director Wang thought this in his heart but didn't say it out loud: "No, I believe you completely."
Han Fei: "……"
This tone, is he really believing me?
"No, you don't believe me either? Xu Mo really helped me solve five or six extremely difficult cases, I didn't make it up."
Director Wang: "Ah, yes, yes, yes."
Han Fei: "???"
……
On the other side.
Several local police officers from Hang City had already brought Xu Mo and his team to the hideout of Li Fei in Hang City—a shantytown.
"That guy is most likely hiding here. The Sky Eye system couldn't pinpoint his exact location, but we deduced from the frequent appearances of Li Fei in this area that he should be hiding here. We estimate he just rented a place here... This is the population census registration form from three months ago. The houses registered on this form are already occupied, so we only need to look for unregistered houses. He just moved in and hasn't had time to register yet."
Although this registration form could significantly reduce the burden on the officers, allowing them not to search the entire shantytown, there were still quite a few unregistered empty houses, over a hundred in total. It would still take time to find him.
"He's quite good at hiding... It's much harder to find someone here than in a residential area." Chen Ke muttered: "This is going to keep us busy. Let's search house by house."
Li Fei's choice of hiding place was causing the officers a lot of headaches.
If he had chosen to live in a normal residential area with surveillance, they could have nabbed him in minutes.
But Li Fei chose such a place, making it difficult!
Xu Mo was also very troubled.
Over a hundred empty houses, searching one by one, not only would it take forever, but it might also alert the suspect.
But they had no choice now, they could only search as carefully as possible without alarming him.
Just as they were about to enter the shantytown and search house by house,
Xu Mo inadvertently saw a figure in the distance.
This person was about a kilometer away, just within Xu Mo's visual range, and he could clearly see the person's appearance.
That was the Li Fei they were looking for!
This case was going too smoothly, from discovering the remains to identifying the suspect and then capturing him, almost without any effort.
"It's like being handed a pillow just as I was falling asleep..." Xu Mo was delighted: "No need to search, the main suspect is right there."
As he spoke, he pointed to Li Fei, who was walking towards the shantytown with a bag of groceries in the distance: "Let's find a place to hide first, and wait for him to get closer before we nab him."
Li Chen looked in the direction Xu Mo pointed, his eyesight was also quite good, although not as strong as Xu Mo's, it was still much better than an average person's.
He squinted and carefully identified the person in the distance, finding that it indeed seemed to be Li Fei, with facial details and walking posture matching what he had seen in the surveillance footage before.
"Hey... it really seems to be him. He's quite considerate, delivering himself right into our hands."
"Let's hide first, lest he gets suspicious seeing so many of us standing here without moving." Xu Mo confirmed, then hid behind a truck by the roadside.
Seeing this, the others also hid.
Li Fei was gradually approaching, initially unaware that he had been spotted by the police.
But when he was about a hundred meters away from the shantytown, he noticed something was off. Behind the truck by the roadside, there were two police cars parked!
He hadn't noticed these police cars before because they were too far away, and the truck blocked the view of the two cars behind it, creating a blind spot from his position.
But upon getting closer, it was hard not to notice the conspicuous police cars.
"Fuck!" After cursing, Li Fei immediately dropped the groceries he was carrying and turned to run.
The officers hiding behind the truck also heard the sound of him fleeing: "He's running, chase him!" Without a second thought, they immediately gave chase.
Chen Ke and Xu Mo were in the lead, their speed the fastest, leaving the other officers behind.
The distance between them and Li Fei was gradually shortening, from an initial hundred meters, to eighty meters...
Fifty meters.
Thirty meters.
Ten meters.
Five meters.
Finally, Xu Mo made a sudden leap forward, knocking Li Fei to the ground.
Chen Ke, lagging a few steps behind Xu Mo, also pounced on Li Fei at this moment: "Don't move!"
The two pinned Li Fei to the ground, holding him tightly, then Chen Ke took out the handcuffs he had on him and cuffed Li Fei's hands.
After being cuffed, Li Fei knew he couldn't escape, so he gave up struggling. When Chen Ke flipped him over, his face was actually smiling.
"I was still found by you... Did you find the bloodstains in the room?"
"So you admit to the murder?" Xu Mo was taken aback.
This Li Fei was different from the criminals he had dealt with before. Others would go to great lengths to justify themselves and evade legal punishment, but this guy just confessed without them even asking.
"Admit it? Not admitting it wouldn't help. Those two people were indeed killed by me, I confess." Li Fei said this with an even more eerie smile on his face.
Then he started muttering to himself: "It's also my fault. The first time I killed someone, I had no experience, too nervous, forgot to clean up the bloodstains in the room, and even got caught on camera... Next time, I'll make sure to clean up everything so no one can find any evidence of my murder."
He confessed directly because soon after leaving the crime scene, he realized there were too many things he hadn't handled properly. Although he had thrown the remains into the reservoir, he hadn't cleaned up the fingerprints and bloodstains, nor had he dealt with the surveillance footage.
The police finding him meant they already had the surveillance footage and fingerprint evidence, ironclad proof, so there was no point in him denying it.
Upon hearing Li Fei's self-talk, Chen Ke was immediately furious: "You psycho, you're still thinking about a next time?" If Li Chen hadn't pulled him back in time, his fist would have already landed on Li Fei's face.
"Why are you getting angry with this psycho? Anyway, he's caught now, breaking into a house, killing, and destroying the body... His life is over, where's the next time? Calm down, don't hit him, there are so many people watching, it's not good for the image."
After Li Chen's persuasion, Chen Ke finally lowered his raised fist and snorted coldly.
At that moment, the phone of one of the local Hang City police officers rang. The person calling was Director Wang...

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
