Chapter 2462 - They will Die after Finishing the Job (2/2)
“Many people feel confused and scold the police for being stupid. Why do they have to turn on the loud sirens to warn the criminals they are coming? Isn’t that just giving the criminals time to run away?” Mo Fan went on.
Mu Bai and Zhang Xiaohou were looking at Mo Fan with puzzled expressions too. What did this have to do with their situation?
On second thought, the sirens in the movies were indeed unnecessary. The criminals were long gone by the time the police arrived!
“But think about it… the sirens are meant to prevent crimes. If the sirens reach the scene a minute earlier than the police cars do, it might save a victim’s life.
“Although it’s unlikely that the criminals will happen to be killing the victims a minute before the police arrive, the sirens still have a slim chance of scaring the criminals away and saving lives. Therefore, it’s worth it to turn on the sirens.
“After all, they can still catch the criminals again after they escape, but a lost life is gone forever. It’s the best way to preserve human lives.”
Mo Fan patted Zhang Xiaohou on the shoulder again and smiled, “Even if the odds are only a hundred to one instead of a fifty percent chance, you will still try to find out the truth. It’s your way of treasuring human lives.”
As long as they still had a chance, it was worth the try!
Mo Fan was too familiar with Zhang Xiaohou. He had never changed. If Zhang Xiaohou had decided NOT to do anything, Mo Fan might think he had been influenced by the sea monster.
“Let’s do it. From now on, I am your soldier ready to follow any orders from you!” Mo Fan might not be a soldier, but he gave Zhang Xiaohou a proper salute.
Zhang Xiaohou bit his lips and took a deep breath.
When he woke up on the deserted island in despair, Mo Fan was the first person that came to his mind.
There was no need to say anything. They just had to do it. Zhang Xiaohou had no regrets knowing he had a brother like Mo Fan!
“If something goes wrong, we’ll just tell the military tribunal that you were the mastermind,” Mo Fan added firmly.
“…”

“So how are we going to split up? Is Zhang Xiaohou going by himself, while the three of us wait for his news?” Mu Bai asked.
“He’s still injured. He won’t be able to do it himself. We will have two people in each group,” Mo Fan declared.
“Coward Zhao, I’ll let you pick first.” Mu Bai glanced at Zhao Manyan, who was pretending he had nothing to do with all this.
“I’ll go with Mo Fan!” Zhao Manyan immediately picked Mo Fan. After all, Mo Fan still had a chance if he turned on his hacks.
“Mm, fine, we’ll be forcing our way up the Giant Clock Mountain at Qinghuangdao to stop the Induction in front of thousands of Mages and a Forbidden Mage. We should plan the details first. The place will be heavily guarded,” Mo Fan informed him.
Zhao Manyan’s face paled. “Well, after second thought, I think I should go with Zhang Xiaohou. I feel like I’m not good enough for that. I’m just a defensive Mage. I’m not good at destroying things!” He had immediately changed his mind and decided to go with Zhang Xiaohou.
Mu Bai laughed while Zhang Xiaohou looked grim, as if his impression of Zhao Manyan had changed. “It’s decided, then. Mu Bai and I will ambush the Giant Clock Mountain. We’ll wait for your news!”
Zhao Manyan twisted his lips. He still felt like neither of them were a good option. It was like a criminal who had been sentenced to death got to choose between a lever-style guillotine or a falling-style guillotine.
Most people planned to retire after pulling off a huge job.. As for their job, if they did it right, they would find themselves at a dead end. If they failed, they would die horrible deaths!
