NOVEL WEB Chapter 60
Chapter 60: Just You Wait, I’m Coming for You
“Wang Ge, what’s your take?”
(tln : Ge is supposed to be older brother)
In the villa’s living room, Xiao Yu looked at Wang Dong.
“I don’t know, I have no idea.”
Wang Dong shook his head, his face frighteningly cold.
If you don’t know, just say you don’t know, why look so proud?
Xiao Yu chuckled.
The system task’s deadline was just over a day away.
If he couldn’t catch the main culprit and close the case, it would be a huge loss…
Xiao Yu twitched his nose, activating King Butterfly’s Nose.
Fortunately, the villa’s doors and windows had been closed for the past two days.
The air still carried a faint hint of Owen’s scent.
Following the scent, Xiao Yu walked up to the second floor.
He reached the floor-to-ceiling window.
The scent disappeared?
No, Owen must have opened the window and exited from here.
Escaping?
Jumping from the villa?
The community has plenty of surveillance cameras; there’s no way he left no trace.
Xiao Yu frowned, is this even scientific?
Standing on the balcony, his brows furrowed.
His mind raced, analyzing all possibilities.
To no avail!
“Are you forcing me to use my trump card?”
Xiao Yu’s expression gradually turned cold, his eyes growing icy and indifferent, “As you wish!”
Simulate the criminal’s mindset!
“Suppose… I am Owen.”
“How would I leave the villa, leave this community, leave this city, and escape the country?”
“Conventional means are basically impossible.”
“Leaving the villa normally, disguised, would expose flaws, totally impractical!”
“So, how did I disappear? What methods are there?”
“First method, windy day, glider… unrealistic!”
“Second method, hiding in a secret room within the villa, escaping when possible… no!”
“Third method, can’t use the sky, can’t use the ground, so only… underground?”
“Only by going underground can I completely avoid surveillance. Is that it?”
“Sewage pipes? Gas pipes? Communication cables… still wrong, these pipelines are all within the community, not leading outside… Wait!”
“I can use these pipes to enter other residents’ homes. As long as the police can’t find me and think I’ve left the community, they’ll lift the lockdown, giving me a chance to escape?”
“Still wrong, the police aren’t fools. If they realize I’ve vanished, they will search other residents’ homes.”
“So, only the most extreme method is left, sneaking into other residents’ homes, threatening, using their car to escape the community?”
“Villas mostly have private garages, so this is the only feasible way.”
“Still, sitting in the car, I’d be seen by the community security and captured on surveillance… the trunk? If I hide in the trunk, how do I threaten others?”
“Children… I can use the children to threaten the adults to drive, hide in the trunk with the children, and have the adults take me out?”
“Is this how I disappeared? Why go to such lengths?”
“I see… my goal is to deliberately draw the police’s attention to the villa, buying time to get farther away?!”
The coldness and numbness in his eyes dissipated, and Xiao Yu returned to normal.
Analyzing all this took less than two minutes.
These deductions weren’t that difficult.
Xiao Yu just used his high IQ to think faster and deduce the result!
However…
He didn’t know when Wang Dong had been standing in front of him, looking at him like a monster, dumbfounded.
Damn it, getting caught self-indulging by the boss…
Xiao Yu instinctively felt resistance, a guilty conscience.
“Is that even a human brain?”
Snapping back to reality, Wang Dong looked at Xiao Yu, “How did you think of all that so quickly?”
Picking a fight again, huh… Xiao Yu rolled his eyes, “Can’t a person be a bit smarter?”
In his previous life, his colleagues, like Wang Dong now, looked at him like a freak.
In this life, to avoid being seen as a monster, he forced himself to “shut down” his brain.
Unless absolutely necessary, he wouldn’t use his full mental capacity.
Like having a Barrett sniper rifle but using it as a walking stick.
Is there really an idiot who thinks being too smart is a problem?
Is he the MVP of foolishness?
Such idiotic behavior, probably only Xiao Yu could pull off!
“Is that just being a bit smarter?”
Time was pressing, it wasn’t the moment to discuss Xiao Yu’s IQ, Wang Dong rolled his eyes furiously, “Let’s go, no time to waste!”
If Xiao Yu’s deductions were correct.
A day and a half was enough for Owen to escape the city and get far away!
But any vehicle travel would leave a record, which could be tracked.
As for identifying which car, that would be easier.
The villa community doesn’t have many residents. Checking who has children and who traveled recently will make it clear.
Half an hour later, Xiao Yu kicked open a villa door and rushed inside.
In the bedroom, he found a tied-up male resident on the bed.
“Save my wife and child!”
When the tape was ripped from his mouth, the man screamed.
“Don’t worry.”
Xiao Yu patted the man’s shoulder, “They’ll be fine!”
Saying this, he dashed out of the villa.
Running to the community fitness park, he jumped onto a helicopter.
The rotors roared, and the helicopter lifted off.
“The vehicle has been identified!”
Amid the roar, Wang Dong shouted to Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu closed his eyes, his fury maxed out.
A foreign mongrel with Chinese blood, daring to come back and harm Chinese people?
Just you wait, I’m coming for you!
