In addition to the hotel staff, the police officers were also stunned by Xu Mo's way of ordering food.

Wow, is this how you order food?

Usually, people order one dish at a time, but Xu Mo? He just ordered every main course all at once, without even blinking!

How much would this meal cost?

"Let's start with these, see if it's enough to eat. If not, we'll order more later," Xu Mo said with a smile after the waiter left.

Police officers: ???

Start with these and order more if not enough!?

You've already ordered so much, can it still not be enough?

At this moment, they gained a new understanding of the term "luxurious."

Who else orders food like Xu Mo?

"Isn't that too much? Maybe we should cancel a few dishes before they're made? If we can't finish them, it would be a waste..." Chen Ke reminded Xu Mo.

Although everyone present was a big eater, they couldn't possibly eat that much!

"The portions in such hotels aren't big. Each plate doesn't have much. Since everyone is a big eater, I have to make sure everyone eats well and is full. Otherwise, I'd be a failure as a team leader," Xu Mo shook his head, indicating no need to cancel: "Eating well is the most important. Don't be reserved."

The more upscale the hotel, the more emphasis they place on the presentation. It's rare to see plates filled to the brim. Each dish only has a little bit, and with so many people, plus the police officers' big appetites, it should be just enough and not a waste.

It was precisely Xu Mo's generosity that initially won the hearts of the team.

"The team leader is so good to us!"

"Brothers, the team leader's business is our business."

"That's right! The team leader's business is our business. I'm warning you upfront, if anyone slacks off at work in the future, don't blame me for being merciless."

"What are you even saying? Just make sure you don't slack off. I'll definitely give my all and follow the team leader!"

"..."

After waiting for a while, the prepared seafood was served one by one.

As Xu Mo had said, the portions in this hotel were indeed not big, so the police officers cleared the plates pretty quickly.

In fact, the speed of serving dishes couldn't keep up with the speed at which the police officers were eating.

...

After some time.

The police officers leaned back comfortably in their chairs, their faces filled with satisfaction.

The table was piled high with empty plates and the remains of dishes like lobster and king crab shells.

Despite being a high-end star hotel, it felt like a buffet to the police officers.

Looking around the entire hotel, only Xu Mo's table dared to eat like this.

Even real tycoons would exclaim "Holy crap!" upon seeing Xu Mo's table. What kind of people are they?

If you say they're rich, their eating style is really unpresentable. The table is piled like a small mountain. Who eats like this in a star hotel? Isn't this the way country bumpkins eat in high-end buffets?

But if you say they're not rich... they've ordered a whole table of expensive dishes! Any slightly pricey dish, they've ordered it, as if it were free!

What kind of family can afford to eat like this?

After finishing all the dishes they had ordered, Xu Mo looked around and asked.

"Are you guys full? Should we order some more?"

Everyone shook their heads.

"Enough, enough, Team Leader. We're full. Ordering more would be a waste."

"I've never been this full in my life. It's so satisfying..."

"You can't deny it, the price is worth it. It's really delicious!"

"Exactly, this lobster, all meat. One bite and it's so damn satisfying."

"And the king crab, half a leg has more meat than ten big crabs. It's so good."

"..."

"You guys like the lobster and king crab?" Xu Mo called the waiter: "Bring five more lobsters and five king crabs, to go."

Upon hearing this, both the waiter and the police officers were stunned:

This is truly beyond human decency!

This is the proper way to "eat and take away"!

"No, no, Team Leader, let's not. We really can't let you spend any more. How can we feel good about this?" Wang Dachuan quickly spoke up.

Taking things from someone makes you feel indebted. Eating and taking away like this is a bit too much!

Hearing this, the waiter hesitated for a moment, then looked at Xu Mo, as if asking for his opinion.

"Just do as I said. Prepare them to go, and hurry up," Xu Mo told the waiter.

"Alright, please wait a moment."

"Mm."

Then, Xu Mo looked at the police officers again.

"What's the big deal about spending some money? These things don't cost that much."

By the end of the meal, the police officers were completely impressed by Xu Mo's generosity. Who wouldn't like such a generous leader?

They were used to doing hard and dangerous work, earning pitiful wages and benefits. Where else could they see such a scene?

It was Xu Mo's actions that completely bridged the gap with the entire squad, making them feel a strong sense of belonging to the newly formed squad. Now, they were an inseparable group centered around Xu Mo.

At this moment, the police officers felt somewhat indebted to Xu Mo.

The only way they could repay him was by working hard under his leadership. Xu Mo told them to go east, and they would never go west!

While waiting for the hotel staff to bring the packed lobsters and king crabs, Xu Mo's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

His senses had been enhanced by the system, giving him excellent hearing.

Just a moment ago, he had heard some commotion in the hotel's kitchen...

"Holy shit!"

"What the hell are you yelling for? You scared me!"

"Hand, hand! There's a hand in the fish's stomach, a human hand!"

"What? A human hand? How is that possible? Where would a human hand come from in a fish's stomach?"

"Come and see, there's a human hand in this monkfish's stomach! What the hell is going on!?"

"Shit... it really is."

"What do we do? Should we call the police?"

"No, no... don't call the police yet. I'll go get the manager and see what he says."

"..."

Chen Ke was the first to notice that Xu Mo's expression was a bit off.

"What's wrong?"

Xu Mo immediately stood up.

"It's hard to explain in a few words. Come with me, there's a murder case."

To be honest, based on what he had just heard, Xu Mo couldn't fully determine what was happening in the hotel's kitchen. He couldn't explain the situation clearly.

But he was certain that the chefs in the kitchen had found dismembered body parts in a fish's stomach while preparing the food.

As for the origin of the dismembered parts, Xu Mo didn't know, and he would have to see for himself to find out.

"Murder case!?" The police officers immediately perked up upon hearing this.

The group stood up and headed straight towards the kitchen...
