Xu Mo turned around and left.
The traffic police then called the tow truck.
He was going to have the car towed back to the police station.
As mentioned earlier, police cars still have to follow the rules when not on duty.
Illegally parked cars would still be penalized.
You definitely can't park under surveillance cameras.
The car has to be moved away.
Watching Xu Mo's departing figure, the traffic police thought, if you don't move your car, fine, then I'll get someone to move it for you!
The livestream viewers saw Zhou Qiaoqiao's bold maneuver and were impressed.
"66666 Zhou Qiaoqiao's crazy move, I'm convinced."
"Zhou Qiaoqiao has taken all the bamboo shoots on the mountain, even the pandas have become skinny!"
"Panda: Give me back my bamboo shoots!"
"I wonder what the reaction would be of the car owner when he receives the call from the traffic police, hahaha..."
Sensing the strange expressions on Yang Jingxuan and Zhou Qiaoqiao's faces, Xu Mo righteously said, "I just want to return the car."
Zhou Qiaoqiao and Yang Jingxuan nodded heavily.
They understood!
This was the simplest, quickest and safest way to return the car.
The traffic police would definitely check the vehicle information and call the owner to come collect it.
It could even save the hassle of checking surveillance footage to locate the car.
As for fines and demerit points, a simple explanation would probably get them waived entirely.
After all, the owner of the police car was also a victim!
...
After much twisting and turning, Xu Mo returned to the homestay where they had encountered the scammers.
"Let's rest here for the night," Xu Mo pointed to the homestay and said.
"Staying here again?" Yang Jingxuan couldn't understand it: "Isn't this place unsafe now? Are you sure you don't want to stay somewhere else?"
Xu Mo smiled and shook his head.
"No need to change, the more dangerous a place is, the safer it actually is."
"Hiding under the light?" Zhou Qiaoqiao chimed in.
Before joining the show, Zhou Qiaoqiao had watched the livestream.
She knew Xu Mo and the others had stayed at this homestay before.
Staying again in a place they had stayed before.
Wasn't that hiding under the light?
Xu Mo looked at Zhou Qiaoqiao: "That's the idea... The production team said you're a hacker?"
"Yes."
"That makes things even easier. Can you hack into all the surveillance cameras that captured our tracks from the parking spot to the homestay and erase the footage?"
Without even thinking about it, Zhou Qiaoqiao nodded.
"Of course."
For a hacker, hacking into surveillance cameras was a very simple matter.
Moreover, Zhou Qiaoqiao also understood Xu Mo's approach.
With the footage erased, it would be much harder for the hunting team to find them.
"That's not right..." Yang Jingxuan looked at Xu Mo dubiously.
"Xu Mo, aren't you a hacker too? Hacking cameras should be easy for you, why don't you just do it yourself?"
Xu Mo was silent for two seconds: "...I'm testing her abilities."
"You were just being lazy, right?" Yang Jingxuan mercilessly exposed Xu Mo.
The atmosphere turned slightly awkward.
Xu Mo didn't even bother responding to Yang Jingxuan.
He walked straight into the homestay.
"Boss, a three-person room please."
The homestay owner was watching a drama while peeling oranges.
Hearing a customer wanting to book a room, she stopped what she was doing.
Glancing up,
The owner was stunned.
Although Xu Mo was wearing a police uniform, she recognized his face.
Wasn't this the young man who liked separate wet and dry bins?
"I remember you, you asked for separate bins for wet and dry trash, right?" The owner smiled and said.
But the next second, seeing the two ladies Xu Mo had brought along this time,
Her smile grew even wider.
She thought to herself, young people these days really know how to have fun!
Two girls with one guy, tsk tsk... quite a flashy affair.
What's more, Xu Mo and one of the girls were even wearing police uniforms.
What's that, some fantasy roleplaying?
How exciting...
Seeing that the owner hadn't responded, Xu Mo spoke again.
"Boss, do you have a three-person room?"
"We do, we do!" The owner smiled and replied, "Separate bins again this time?"
"Hmm... separate wet and dry bins."
The room was quickly prepared.
Xu Mo led the two ladies up, holding the room card.
Once in the room, Zhou Qiaoqiao took out a laptop the production team had prepared for her from her bag.
She started hacking into the surveillance cameras.
Xu Mo watched on the side.
Judging from Zhou Qiaoqiao's hacking techniques,
Xu Mo determined that Zhou Qiaoqiao's hacker skills were pretty good.
Although not as good as his own, but not too far off either.
Soon, Zhou Qiaoqiao completed hacking into the surveillance footage.
She turned to look at Xu Mo.
"Done, we're completely safe now. Xu Mo, did I pass your test?"
"With your skills, how could you not pass?" Xu Mo smiled.
Hearing this, Zhou Qiaoqiao also smiled, satisfied.
Suddenly, she looked towards Xu Mo.
"I haven't watched the livestream since being detained. Can you tell me how you rescued me out?"
Xu Mo recalled the steps he had taken to rescue Zhou Qiaoqiao.
Then he slowly started recounting.
"I also used hacking techniques to hack into the bank's surveillance cameras..."
...
At the same time.
Detention center.
A police officer's phone rang.
The officer picked up the call: "Hello, who's this?"
"I'm the traffic police who towed your car. Just letting you know, your car has been towed to the traffic police station."
Hearing this, the police officer was confused at first.
His car got towed away?
But very quickly, he realized what was going on.
This was a scammer, a fake traffic police scammer.
A scam call got through to him, a police officer?
Isn't that just walking into a trap?
Towing cars and stuff, obvious lies.
His car was parked nicely inside the detention center compound!
How could it have been towed away?
"Traffic police? Quite impressive to be towing my car. Which road did you tow it from?"
"You're talking back to me? Don't you know where I towed your car from?"
Hearing this, the police officer became even more certain this was a scammer.
Can't even say where the car was towed from. If this isn't a scammer, what is?
He laughed coldly and continued, "Do you even know what car you towed?"
"I know, a police car."
"You know it's a police car too? Then do you know what I do for a living?"
The officer was shocked:
This scammer is so gutsy!?
Knows that I'm a police officer but still dares to try scamming me!?
A mouse taunting a cat? Looking for trouble!?
The police officer couldn't stand it anymore.
"I've found that you scammers are really quite bold, still daring to call me even when you know I'm a police officer!"
The traffic police on the other end of the line was also annoyed.
"I'm the scammer? You're the scammer! In any case I've notified you already, whether you come to collect your car is your business..."
"Talking as if it's real," the police officer said coldly. "My car is parked nicely inside the detention center!"
Upon hearing this, the traffic police couldn't be bothered to say anything more.
He directly hung up the phone.
...
Ten minutes later, the police officer was shocked to discover that his car, which was nicely parked inside the detention center compound earlier, had vanished into thin air.
"WTF!? Where's my car!?"
