Under the leadership of Han Fei and Xu Mo, the police officers gradually approached the self-built house in the distance.
One thousand meters.
Eight hundred meters.
Five hundred meters.
Three hundred meters.
They had been extremely careful, trying their best not to make any sound to avoid attracting attention from those inside the house.
However, this area was too desolate, with no cover around. If anyone inside had even slightly heightened alertness, they would be discovered.
At that moment, through the second-floor window of the house, a bald-headed man whose head was so shiny it could serve as a mirror appeared in the officers' line of sight.
"Captains Han and Xu, there's someone at the window, I think they've spotted us!" Li Chen said, pointing at the second-floor window.
At this distance, he could clearly see the person standing by the window.
"Move in! Don't let them escape!" Seeing that they had been discovered, Han Fei took the lead and charged forward. There was no point in hiding anymore; moving quickly to arrest them before they could escape was the right move.
Just as the officers spotted the man inside, the bald man who had inadvertently walked to the window also noticed the approaching police officers.
"Brother, there are people... coming, they look like cops!"
"Cops? That's impossible, how could they find us so quickly? Move aside, let me see." The next second, a man wearing jeans and a white t-shirt, with glasses, rushed to the window, pushing his brother aside to take a look.
These two were brothers - the one wearing glasses was the older brother Chen Wu, and the bald one was the younger brother Chen Wen.
Interestingly, these brothers were quite different: Chen Wu was clever but rather thin and sickly since childhood, while Chen Wen had excellent physical condition but wasn't very bright. Their names seemed to have been given in reverse.
After seeing the uniforms of the people outside clearly, Chen Wu drew in a sharp breath.
They really were police officers! And quite a few of them.
The only habitable place around was this self-built house, and without doubt, the officers were coming for them.
"Brother, what do we do now? Should we grab our weapons and fight them?"
"Fight my ass, can't you see how many of them there are? Let's run!" As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Wu immediately turned to escape.
Fighting wasn't an option; they couldn't possibly win. There were too many officers - even if each one just threw a single punch, it would be enough to take them down.
"Run now? Brother, the buyers are on their way, if we run now, won't our deal be ruined?"
"Is this really the time to think about money? What's more important, your life or money?"
Chen Wen answered without hesitation: "Money is more important. If I die, I die, but I won't rest in peace if I don't make this money."
As soon as he finished speaking, his brother Chen Wu's size 43 foot landed on his backside.
"Stop dawdling, let's get out of here quick, we won't make it if we don't run now!"
After getting kicked, Chen Wen scratched his shiny bald head, his clear but foolish eyes flashing with confusion. He didn't know what he'd said wrong or why his brother had kicked him, but he still followed Chen Wu's lead, preparing to leave.
The two tumbled down from the second floor, not even bothering to gather their valuables before bursting out of the self-built house.
"Run this way, the car's here," Chen Wu said, looking back at the pursuing officers while pointing at their small truck.
Chen Wen immediately followed.
However, after running just a few steps, he suddenly paused: "Brother, I think I forgot my phone."
"Who cares about a phone at a time like this? Running is more important, forget the phone, I'll buy you a new one later."
Hearing that Chen Wu would buy him a new phone, Chen Wen hesitated no longer and caught up with his brother again.
The two successfully reached their vehicle before the police could catch up.
Chen Wu sat in the passenger seat, not even bothering with the seatbelt as he instructed Chen Wen in the driver's seat.
"Quick, quick, start driving... drive! Shake off these damn cops!"
"Got it, brother, leave it to me."
Chen Wen skillfully started the car, his right foot already on the gas pedal. One slight press and they could instantly leave the approaching officers behind.
But at that moment, Chen Wen remembered something else - he'd left in such a hurry that he forgot to shut down his computer!
"Damn, brother, I just remembered something..."
"What the hell now? Whatever you remembered can wait until we've shaken off these cops!" Chen Wu was losing it.
His brother was good at everything else, but he just wasn't quite right in the head, with his peculiar thought processes and strange ideas.
"I forgot to shut down my computer."
Hearing this, Chen Wu was stunned. He never would have guessed that his foolish brother would be worried about whether his computer was shut down at a time like this.
"So what if your computer's not shut down? Who cares? Is this really the time to be thinking about your damn computer?!" Chen Wu slapped Chen Wen's shiny forehead. "Just drive!"
"No way, brother, it's not about the computer being shut down, it's that I didn't clear my browser history... I have to go delete my browsing history, others can't see that."
Saying this, Chen Wen opened the car door, preparing to get out.
Chen Wu: "???"
The cops were about to catch up, and you're telling me you need to go back to delete your browser history?!
Just as he was halfway out of the car, Chen Wu grabbed his clothes.
"Brother, I'm begging you, the cops are almost here, let's run quick, forget about your browser history, if we don't leave now we're finished!"
Chen Wen shook his head without thinking and said seriously.
"No can do, the browser history must be deleted. Brother, I don't know if you've heard this saying: 'I fear not a broken body, but must leave a clean name in this world'... This browser history must be deleted, even if I get caught, so be it."
With that, Chen Wen broke free from Chen Wu's grip on his clothes and resolutely got out of the car.
"Brother, run by yourself, don't worry, I won't rat you out!" Leaving these words behind, Chen Wen immediately ran back towards the self-built house.
Chen Wu: "???"
Run by myself? How the hell am I supposed to do that?!
"Get back here! Damn it! I can't drive this big truck!"
"How did I end up with a brother like you... shit!"
After venting his frustration with a few curses, Chen Wu knew he couldn't waste any more time or they'd definitely be caught. He gritted his teeth and climbed from the passenger seat to the driver's seat.
Although he couldn't drive this kind of truck, he could drive a car. A truck or a car, they're all vehicles - how different could they be to drive?
