"I'm serious, why don't we turn ourselves in..."
Yang Jingxuan stared at Xu Mo with a serious expression and repeated her suggestion.
Xu Mo shook his head almost instinctively.
Turn themselves in? That's impossible.
This cat-and-mouse game had only just begun. It wouldn't make sense to surrender now, would it?
Of course, Xu Mo knew why Yang Jingxuan was urging him to surrender. It was because she thought he couldn't fly a plane and didn't want to take the risk with him.
He reached out and patted Yang Jingxuan's shoulder, smiling.
"I'm confident. Don't worry. Do you think I would joke about my own life?"
Yang Jingxuan thought for a moment and felt that Xu Mo's words made sense.
Who would joke about their own life unless they were truly reckless?
So, Xu Mo must be able to fly a plane!
With that in mind, Yang Jingxuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yeah, you're right. You definitely wouldn't joke about your own life."
But she still had some doubts.
"By the way... aren't you just an ordinary office worker? How can you fly a plane?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Mo was slightly taken aback. "Did I ever say I could fly a plane?"
"You can't?"
"Look at the way you asked that... No, I definitely can't."
Yang Jingxuan: "???"
Wow, just a moment ago it seemed like Xu Mo was serious. She almost thought he really could fly a plane.
Luckily she asked for clarification.
Otherwise, wouldn't she have fallen for Xu Mo's big lie?
A person who can't fly a plane trying to apply for the position of a pilot?
And even attempting to fly away from Yangcheng City!
You see, once a plane crashes, the death rate for passengers and crew members is almost one hundred percent.
Falling from several thousand meters high, wouldn't the person be completely shattered?
Yang Jingxuan participated in this show just to gain a little more fame.
But even for fame, she couldn't gamble with her life.
She shook her head and stepped back.
"No, no, no... I think turning ourselves in is more appropriate."
Seeing this, Xu Mo immediately put on a serious expression. "I was just kidding. I can fly a plane, trust me."
"Can you really?"
"Of course."
"But I still feel like you're deceiving me!"
"Why would I deceive you? Besides, what benefit would I get from deceiving you? If I couldn't fly, I'd be done for too, don't you think?"
Xu Mo's expression was unusually serious and he didn't seem like he was lying.
And one thing was certain, Xu Mo was right. If he really couldn't fly a plane, he would be in trouble too.
Yang Jingxuan felt that Xu Mo wasn't the type to take unnecessary risks.
Maybe when he said he couldn't fly a plane earlier, it was just a joke.
Little did she know, Xu Mo was pretending. He really couldn't fly a plane.
He was just an honest office worker. How could he possibly fly a plane?
If he really could fly a plane, he would have applied to an airline company long ago.
Of course, the reason Xu Mo remained calm was because he had done some research online beforehand.
For the past couple of days, he had been constantly searching for information about planes on his phone.
And he had learned about the qualifications a pilot needed to have.
Thanks to the information he gathered, Xu Mo knew that besides the captain, there was also a co-pilot on the plane.
Not only can the captain fly the plane, but the co-pilot can too.
The captain has the authority to authorize the co-pilot to operate the aircraft during takeoff and landing.
Many times, it is the co-pilot who completes the takeoff and landing of the plane.
So even if Xu Mo doesn't know how to fly a plane, it's not a big problem.
Isn't there still a co-pilot who can fly?
...
"Han, it's been several days. Has Xu Mo already left here?"
"Impossible. The surveillance shows that the last place Xu Mo was seen was here. How could he have left?" Han Fei shook his head.
Although the search over the past few days has yielded no results.
He still believes that Xu Mo is nearby.
Because this is the last place where Xu Mo was captured on surveillance, and since then, there have been no more sightings of him.
This strongly indicates something.
And there's Han Fei's intuition as the captain of the criminal investigation team.
He has solved many cases relying on his precise intuition.
And up to now, his intuition has not been wrong even once.
Han Fei's brow furrowed into a '川' character.
"If he hasn't left, where could he be hiding?"
His sharp eyes quickly surveyed every corner of the area.
He was very puzzled and couldn't figure out where Xu Mo could be.
You see, during these past few days, the members of the investigative team, accompanied by police officers, have thoroughly searched this area.
But even so, they couldn't find Xu Mo.
Wait a minute!
It seems there's still one place they haven't searched.
Han Fei looked towards the hotel by the roadside.
Speaking of which, this is the only place they haven't searched!
If Xu Mo didn't hide elsewhere, then he must be hiding there.
"I know, Xu Mo is hiding in that hotel!"
Finally understanding, Han Fei pointed at the hotel and shouted.
Upon hearing this, Shen Manni, Chen Ke, and Li Chen all looked in the direction Han Fei was pointing.
With Han Fei's reminder, they suddenly realized.
They hadn't paid attention to this hotel because checking in required real-name registration.
It's unlikely that Xu Mo would take the risk of renting a room here.
But all this time, they had overlooked one thing.
That is, Xu Mo could easily use someone else's ID to check in, thereby bypassing the police's online system.
After realizing this, the investigative team immediately rushed towards the hotel with the police officers.
The viewers who had been following the livestream of Room 2 became somewhat excited.
Is this program finally coming to an end?
"It finally clicked. If they had searched earlier, they would have caught him sooner. Why did they let Xu Mo hide for so long?"
"This episode is probably going to end now. Xu Mo can't escape."
"I have to say, Xu Mo is really strong. He managed to hold out for so long."
"That's right. The challengers in the previous two episodes combined didn't last three hours. Xu Mo's performance is already very impressive."
"The end. Confetti. Please welcome the next challenger!"
...
"Hello, police investigation. Please cooperate with our work."
After entering the hotel, Han Fei approached the front desk and promptly identified himself without any hesitation, while also presenting his credentials.
"Alright... alright, I'll cooperate," the waiter nodded hesitantly.
In the next moment, Han Fei found Xu Mo's photo on his phone and presented it to the front desk.
"Have you seen this person?" he asked.
The waiter glanced at the photo, barely pondering over it, and confidently replied, "Yes, I have seen him!"
"Just a few days ago, he came with two beautiful women to check in, and they haven't checked out yet. I remember him quite distinctly!"
The members of the investigation team were puzzled: "???"
Xu Mo checked in with beautiful women? And not just one, but two?!
So, while we were suffering outside, you were enjoying yourself here?
