Bab 26: Under the Control
Ye Gaoyi and Xu Zhibin were walking towards the office.
As they walked, Ye Gaoyi's steps gradually slowed down.
Xu Zhibin turned around in confusion and looked at Ye Gaoyi, asking, "What's wrong?"
Ye Gaoyi had his head down, and after hearing Xu Zhibin's question, he lifted his head.
The passengers from K331 had already disembarked, and they should be going through the exit checks.
On the spacious platform of Jinling Station, there were only a few scattered staff members, and no one else.
Ye Gaoyi glanced at Xu Zhibin, then turned his head to look at the train, and then he spoke, "What did they find in Wang Hua's luggage?"
Xu Zhibin was taken aback, not understanding why he was asking this.
But he didn't think too much and answered directly, "A set of makeup tools, several outfits of different identities, wigs, fake beards..."
"And a few spare fake IDs, that's about it."
Ye Gaoyi lowered his head again, deep in thought. With dark circles under his eyes, he suddenly spoke, "I see..."
"See what?"
"Damn it... we've been played!"
Hearing this, Xu Zhibin's mouth opened slightly, but Ye Gaoyi had already started walking again, and his pace quickly surpassed Xu Zhibin's.
"Hey, Old Ye, what do you mean by that?"
Ye Gaoyi said, "Use your brain! Don't forget who the opponent is!"
"It's Li Xuan!"
Ye Gaoyi continued, "The silhouette we saw, the one that suddenly appeared in front of you!"
"That steward! Did you forget?"
Xu Zhibin was momentarily confused, quickly catching up with Ye Gaoyi's steps. But his brow was furrowed.
"Are you saying..."
"Yes! That steward wasn't Uncle Hua! It was Li Xuan!"
Xu Zhibin instinctively retorted, "How's that possible? Li Xuan, an eighteen-year-old student, how could he have that kind of silhouette?"
Ye Gaoyi's voice was somewhat excited, "He's exploiting exactly that thought! The moment you see that silhouette, you're bound to think it's Uncle Hua!"
"He waited until the last moment to act, he was waiting for this opportunity!"
Xu Zhibin's eyes grew wider and wider.
Li Xuan hid himself, and his timing was when all the stewards clashed with the thieves' gang!
The time when the police and the Railway Police Bureau started their arrests, they certainly didn't have time to focus on Li Xuan's situation!
"So that's it!"
Goosebumps formed on Xu Zhibin's body.
Such a daring idea was one thing, but the key was that he had actually executed it!
No wonder Wang Hua didn't show any signs of changing clothes in the compartment!
He didn't move at all!
Indeed, someone so cautious wouldn't make such a mistake!
Li Xuan was leading them!
Every step was planned by Li Xuan!
In the final forty-five minutes, Li Xuan had led them by the nose, step by step, into action against the entire gang of thieves on the train!
Just as he was thinking this, Xu Zhibin suddenly tilted his head.
"Wait, but how did he discover Wang Hua?"
"What if Wang Hua wasn't in this compartment at all?"
Ye Gaoyi's pace quickened even more, "He didn't need to discover Wang Hua at all, and he didn't even need Wang Hua to be in this compartment!"
"He wanted us to start moving!"
"Don't forget, we followed his silhouette!"
"As long as we were drawn in, he had a chance to escape!"
Ye Gaoyi gritted his teeth as he spoke. An inexplicable sense of humiliation surged within him.
Even though Wang Hua died jumping off the train, it was Li Xuan who helped them locate him!
Starting from the lost and found announcement on the train's broadcast, their focus had been locked onto the "passenger"! If they had realized earlier that Li Xuan had infiltrated the crew members, they would have captured him long ago!
But there weren't so many 'ifs' in the world!
Their footsteps grew faster, and their anxiety deepened.
A person like Li Xuan, once integrated into Jinling City, how could they possibly catch him!?
"Damn it!"
He suddenly thought of something else, "That towel!"
"The one Li Xuan handed me!"
"Damn it!"
He felt his heart tighten, a sense of being toyed with that he had never experienced in his twenty-five years in the police force.
It wasn't just Ye Gaoyi; Xu Zhibin was in the same situation.
When he realized the reason he caught Wang Hua was because of Li Xuan, his expression became incredibly strange.
He had actually done nothing?
He had just walked without being led by the nose, and stumbled upon a piece of candy at the end?
How laughable!
Both of them began to run, calling on the phone as they did...
But they knew that now... it seemed to be too late.
Ye Gaoyi left the station directly through the staff passage, while Xu Zhibin headed straight for the rest area.
Perhaps there was still a chance to catch Li Xuan!
...
When Ye Gaoyi boarded the train, Li Xuan had already left his bunk.
As for how he did it...
It was quite simple, actually. He left 14th carriage along with the old lady selling peanuts and mineral water from the cart.
When attention was focused elsewhere, it was easy to miss other things in one's field of vision.
Moreover, Li Xuan's demeanor was completely different from what the guards believed a "student" would be like...
The cart-pushing lady not only provided Li Xuan with the opportunity to slip away, but also handed him the distinctive key that could open the crew rest area on the train.
Then, Li Xuan changed into the attire of a railway police officer...
He also discreetly hid the clothing of a railway crew member in the restroom of Car 11.
When the time came, following the silhouette of Wang Hua that he had seen before, imitating his demeanor, Li Xuan attracted the attention of the police officers in the dining car.
Upon reaching Car 11, he immediately slipped into the restroom and changed into the railway crew member's uniform.
As other railway police officers arrived, he opened the door and joined the team searching and maintaining order together with the other railway staff...
Li Xuan had long known that many of these railway staff members were from different passenger sections, unfamiliar with each other, scattered throughout various carriages. After they arrived, no one paid attention to the people around them...
In this way, Li Xuan even handed Ye Gaoyi a towel.
Then he got off the train with everyone else.
Naturally, there would be people from Jinling taking over the situation. Li Xuan simply walked out wearing that uniform.
...
At this moment, he had confidently left Jinling Station and turned into a dim alley near a station.
As soon as he turned the corner, Li Xuan halted his steps and turned his head.
He seemed to be waiting for someone.
Soon enough, another figure appeared at the entrance of the alley.
It was Wang Hua.
This time, the two finally faced each other in person.
Wang Hua squinted his eyes and asked, "Were you waiting for me?"
Li Xuan smiled, "Of course."
"Your watch, I haven't returned it to you yet."
