Not long after, the officer who had gone to retrieve the case file returned.
He was holding his phone, wearing an expression that said, "I knew it would be like this."
"See, I told you! This girl is the one who was disfigured in the arson case!"
Instead of bringing the case file, the officer had taken a photo of it with his phone.
"Let me see," the other officers crowded around.
However, after looking at the photo on the phone, everyone was stunned.
The woman who had just appeared at the police station entrance was indeed the one who had been severely burned and disfigured in the recent arson case.
"Holy crap, it's really her?"
"Wasn't she disfigured? What's going on? Did she recover?"
"Is medical technology that advanced now?"
"No way. No matter how advanced medical technology is, it can't completely restore someone's appearance after disfigurement."
"Exactly. That was severe burns. Surviving was already a miracle, let alone recovering her appearance. Impossible."
Even a god couldn't do something like that.
Instantly, the officers thought of another possibility.
"This girl must be the victim's sister... or twin sister. There's no way it's the same person. They just look alike."
"That's what I was thinking too!"
Twin sisters—that was the only explanation.
However, just as the officers were thinking this, the conversation between Xu Mo and the middle-aged man completely dumbfounded them.
The woman who had appeared at the police station entrance was indeed the one who had been disfigured in the arson case. There was no such thing as a twin sister.
And the reason she had recovered so well was entirely because of their Captain Xu!
She had indeed been disfigured, that much was true, but Xu Mo had cured her. Xu Mo had helped her restore her appearance.
The officers were utterly shocked.
Someone who had been severely burned and disfigured not long ago had actually recovered their appearance thanks to their Captain Xu?
Although it sounded a bit unbelievable, it was indeed the truth.
The father and daughter were now standing at the police station entrance with a banner of gratitude, clearly here to present it to Xu Mo.
"Captain Xu's medical skills must be extraordinary too," one officer remarked.
Helping someone recover from disfigurement? Even Hua Tuo, the legendary physician, would have struggled to do that!
Captain Xu was as impressive as ever, not only skilled in many areas but also excelling in all of them!
...
"Fifty million. How does that sound?" the middle-aged man added.
His daughter had recently suffered severe facial disfigurement due to using a defective cosmetic product. Over the past few days, the man had taken her to almost every major hospital and cosmetic clinic, but all of them had told him it was impossible to restore her appearance.
It was only today that he had overheard two nurses chatting about the father and daughter's situation.
If someone who had been severely burned and disfigured could recover, surely his daughter, who had only used a defective cosmetic product, could be cured as well.
The man owned several listed companies. Fifty million was a significant amount for him, but he could afford it.
To him, fifty million was a small price to pay for his daughter's life—she had already attempted suicide multiple times because of her disfigurement.
Wow, fifty million! Xu Mo suddenly thought that selling one of his Golden Healing Pills wasn't such a bad idea. After all, he had plenty, and the offer was just too good... well, it wasn't about the money. He just loved helping people!
"Good thing I have an extra one. I'll sell you one," Xu Mo agreed immediately.
The man was slightly taken aback.
Xu Mo had agreed a bit too readily, making him wonder if he had offered too much.
However, he didn't dwell on it. As soon as Xu Mo agreed, he pulled out his checkbook, wrote a check, and handed it to Xu Mo.
Xu Mo took the check and pulled a small porcelain bottle from his pocket, handing it to the man.
The exchange was done—money for the pill.
Neither of them was worried about being scammed.
Xu Mo wasn't worried because he was a police officer, and the man wouldn't dare write him a bad check.
As for the man, he wasn't afraid of being scammed either. Xu Mo was a police officer, after all. He wouldn't resort to fraud. Even if he tried, he couldn't escape—wherever he went, the police station would still be there.
After receiving the Golden Healing Pill, the man left immediately. He wanted to hurry back and give the pill to his daughter to see if it worked.
After the man left, the father and daughter who had come to thank Xu Mo also bid farewell and left the police station.
As soon as they were gone, the officers crowded around Xu Mo.
They glanced at the banner of gratitude the father and daughter had given Xu Mo, then looked at Xu Mo himself.
"Captain Xu, you know medicine too?"
Not wanting to explain too much, Xu Mo simply replied, "I know a little."
The officers looked at the banner, which read, "A modern-day Hua Tuo, with miraculous healing hands."
Recalling the appearance of the woman who should have been disfigured, they couldn't help but think: This is just "a little"?
Even the greatest physicians in history couldn't have done better!
Captain Xu was as humble as ever.
News of Xu Mo's extraordinary medical skills quickly spread throughout the station.
It became a hot topic of conversation among the officers during their breaks.
However, everyone was already used to Xu Mo's exceptional abilities.
A sharpshooter who could fly planes, pick locks, perform martial arts, and more—a hacker, detective, forensic expert, and now a doctor?
Was it strange for someone like him to know medicine?
No, it wasn't strange. In fact, it made perfect sense!
...
In the evening, the police station's dispatcher received a strange phone call.
Xu Mo happened to be passing by when the call came in.
"Hello, when will my pizza be delivered?"
"Pizza? What pizza?" The dispatcher had barely finished speaking when Xu Mo immediately sensed something was off. He stopped in his tracks, signaling the dispatcher not to say anything else, and took the receiver from him. Mimicking the dispatcher's voice, he continued the conversation.
"Oh, oh, oh, sorry! I forgot. We do have a pizza order that hasn't been delivered yet."
Xu Mo could clearly hear the trembling in the caller's voice, as if she was frightened.
"Then hurry up! The address is Unit 304, Building 7, Xindu Plaza. I've been waiting forever."
"Sorry, we'll deliver it right away. It'll be there in fifteen minutes."
"..."
After hanging up, Xu Mo immediately gathered the officers to prepare for a dispatch.
The woman who had called was likely a victim of kidnapping.
He hadn't asked about her situation over the phone because he was afraid the kidnappers might be listening.
In such cases, the best course of action was to head straight to the location.
If the caller was indeed kidnapped, their timely arrival could save a life.
Even if it turned out to be a prank call, it wouldn't matter. Pranks were fine as long as the caller was safe.
Of course, if it was determined to be a false report, the caller would still be brought to the station for a stern warning.

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
