32: Chapter 32 Helped a Big Shot

"Hold this!"

While everyone was still dazed, Qin Mo quickly handed the streaming equipment to Murong Lanlan, turned around, and chased after the Yellow-haired Man.

"Huh?"

Murong Lanlan was momentarily stunned, then she started chasing after Qin Mo.

"Qin Mo, be careful!"

Qin Mo waved his hand and continued the pursuit without looking back.

"Holy crap! Brother Mo, are you actually going? We were just joking!"

"Brother Mo is awesome! I respect you as a real man!"

...

"You're looking for death!"

Seeing an exceptionally handsome young man rushing toward him, the Yellow-haired Man was instantly enraged.

He immediately pulled out a dagger he carried with him and lunged fiercely toward Qin Mo's face.

"DANGER!!!"

Murong Lanlan, who was following behind Qin Mo, screamed out in terror.

The viewers in the stream had their hearts in their throats; everyone was terrified. No one expected the Yellow-haired Man to have a knife!

At that critical moment, Qin Mo's eyes narrowed.

His right hand struck out like lightning, grabbing the hilt of the knife the Yellow-haired Man was stabbing at him.

"What?"

The Yellow-haired Man's pupils constricted at the sight.

Before he could react, Qin Mo's left hand slammed hard into the Yellow-haired Man's chest.

Doubled over in pain, the Yellow-haired Man frantically dropped the dagger and clutched his chest, grimacing.

Qin Mo jumped and kicked the Yellow-haired Man to the ground in one fluid motion, then kicked the dagger away.

He hoisted the Yellow-haired Man up with one hand and delivered a fierce slap with his left.

*Slap!*

"Like playing with knives, do you?"

*Slap!*

"Sneak attacks, huh?"

*Slap!*

"Still want to act tough?"

Silence...

The scene was eerily quiet.

Everyone had prepared themselves for Qin Mo to get hurt, but they hadn't expected him to turn the tables in just two moves.

"Big brother, stop hitting me! I won't play with knives anymore, I won't act tough ever again! Stop... waah..."

The Yellow-haired Man was completely dazed from the slaps, begging for mercy with a bruised face and a mess of snot and tears.

Does anyone understand? I just wanted to have a happy little robbery today, and this stu... handsome guy comes up and gives me several slaps. Doesn't he know how much damage these slaps will do to my fragile heart?

The Yellow-haired Man was full of regret; if he had known, he wouldn't have listened to that foreigner.

That guy said that as long as he gave him this box, he wouldn't have to worry for the rest of his life. If he'd known he'd get slapped this much, he wouldn't have taken the job for anything!

Thinking of this, the Yellow-haired Man felt resentful toward the foreigner. It was all his fault!

...

"Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap!"

This scene was witnessed by the netizens in the stream, and the chat was instantly filled with exclamations of 'Holy crap!'

"Brother Mo actually knows martial arts! Holy crap?"

"Brothers, what did I just see? Snatching a blade barehanded and lifting an adult with one hand!"

"Holy crap! I thought the Streamer was Iron rank, but I never expected him to be a God-tier booster!"

...

"Qin Mo, how are you? Are you hurt?"

Murong Lanlan rushed toward Qin Mo in a panic.

She checked him all over, and seeing he wasn't injured, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Mo's face was full of disdain.

"He's not capable of hurting me."

He then looked coldly at the Yellow-haired Man.

"You... who are you? Why are you meddling in my business?"

The Yellow-haired Man looked at Qin Mo with terror; this man was too ruthless, and he was truly scared of being slapped again.

*Wooo~ Wooo~*

Before Qin Mo could answer, sirens began to blare loudly.

In an instant, police cars surrounded the area behind Qin Mo, and a group of Hat Uncles quickly got out.

They surrounded the Yellow-haired Man so tightly that not even water could leak through.

Looking at the rows of armed Hat Uncles, the Yellow-haired Man was completely stunned.

I just committed a robbery; is such a large-scale operation necessary? If people didn't know better, they'd think I was a fugitive who killed hundreds of people...

Robberies in the past never had such a big turnout...

At this moment, a young Hat Uncle stepped forward and shouted.

"Hands on your head and squat down!"

The Yellow-haired Man, who was already scared out of his wits, collapsed directly onto the ground upon hearing this.

Seeing this, the surrounding Hat Uncles swarmed forward, and the Yellow-haired Man was instantly subdued.

Looking at the multiple layers of Hat Uncles guarding him, the Yellow-haired Man couldn't understand even if he racked his brain why the consequences of a simple robbery were so severe...

Finally, Elder Li caught up, panting heavily behind the crowd.

A Hat Uncle saw this and immediately took out his canteen to give to Elder Li.

After a while, Elder Li finally recovered and said with a worried face.

"Young comrade, has my box been found?"

"Found it!"

The Hat Uncle quickly reacted, picking up the briefcase from the ground and handing it to Elder Li.

After taking the box, Elder Li hurriedly opened it and pulled out a laptop.

After confirming there was no loss, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Elder Li then approached Qin Mo with a grateful and kind expression: "Thank you, young man. This box contains national secrets of our Dragon Country, valued at tens of billions of dollars. It is the life's work of countless researchers. Fortunately, it wasn't stolen. Thank you so much!"

As he spoke, Elder Li's trembling body began to bend down to bow to Qin Mo.

This action startled everyone around them.

Two Hat Uncles were quick to react, immediately stepping forward to support Elder Li while frantically signaling Qin Mo with their eyes.

Qin Mo was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said immediately.

"Elder Li, this won't do. You are the hero here; this is what a junior should do. If anyone should bow, it's me bowing to you."

After Qin Mo's earnest persuasion, Elder Li finally gave up on the idea of bowing to him.

He then said with a smile, "Young man, you are very good. Seeing your moves just now, you must have trained before, right?"

Qin Mo gave a modest smile: "I learned a few moves from my grandfather when I was a kid, so I suppose I've trained a bit."

He felt a bit bitter inside; he hadn't practiced any martial arts, it was all thanks to the system...

Hearing Qin Mo's answer, Elder Li happily said to the leader of the Hat Uncles.

"This young comrade is excellent. You should reward him well. If he hadn't stopped the robber at the critical moment, these classified documents might have been in big trouble. This is the result of so many people's hard work!"

The leading Hat Uncle straightened up and gave a solemn salute.

"Please rest assured, Academician. We will certainly reward this young comrade!"

Elder Li nodded in satisfaction and then handed Qin Mo a business card.

"Young man, this is my private number. If you run into any trouble, you can call this old man."

"In this little patch of land called Yanjing, this old man still has some influence. Feel free to come over for tea when you have time."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present looked at Qin Mo with disbelief and envy.

They all knew the weight of this phone number. It was no exaggeration to say that with Elder Li's private number, one could walk tall throughout all of Yanjing...

Qin Mo smiled slightly.

"Sure, I'll definitely visit you for tea when I'm free. I'll have to trouble you then."

"Haha... no trouble at all, no trouble at all..."

...

"Dad!"

Just then, a loud shout came.

Everyone instinctively turned their heads to see a military vehicle parked on the roadside. Two middle-aged men jumped out of the vehicle in a panic and ran toward the crowd.

Qin Mo looked closely.

Good heavens! One had three stars on his shoulder, and the other had four!

"Dad! Are you okay?"

"Dad, we heard you were robbed. Are you hurt? Do we need to go to the hospital?"

The two middle-aged men anxiously surrounded Elder Li, checking him over, fearing the old man had suffered some injury.

"I'm fine, the criminal has already been subdued."

Elder Li said nonchalantly, then pointed to Qin Mo.

"You two should thank this young man for me. He was a huge help this time. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't even know where this computer would be right now."

The two middle-aged men immediately turned their gaze toward Qin Mo.
