Chapter 48: System Rewards!

The reporters’ questions were like sharp knives, stabbing into Rum’s heart.

It made his already awful face even gloomier.

What kind of mood was he in?

Did you still need to ask him?

“I didn’t consider the robber’s intentions and allow him successfully rob and escape under the nose of the police is my negligence. After the drill is over, I will reflect deeply.”

“However, the most important thing now is to capture the robber before the drill is over!”

Rum spoke.

“Then, it has been a long time since the robber escaped, and the police have not grasped the robber’s escape route. In less than half an hour, the drill will end. In such a short time, is there still a chance to capture the robber?”

Another media asked.

“We will launch a large-scale manhunt. We will try to find the robber in the shortest time possible and capture him,” Rum said.

“As the drill progresses until now, the robber has always relied on his own means to escape again and again the police’s pursuit in the face of so many police officers. It can be said that the robber has won the drill. Is there any meaning to the arrest?”

The third media asked.

Rum was silent for a moment.

A serious look appeared on his face.

“It is meaningful. As long as time is not over, we will continue to target the robber and continue to pursue him”

“This is no longer a drill. This is actual combat.”

“Perhaps at the beginning, everyone had the mentality of a drill. Everyone thought that capturing the robber would not waste too much time.”

“However, as the situation evolved, the robber escaped from the pursuit again and again, and we had our people died in battle, this was no longer a child’s play. The police only had one life.”

“Fortunately, this was a drill. Otherwise, they would have really died in battle.”

“But this drill brought us a deeper meaning than actual combat because this drill allowed us to find our own shortcomings. Here, I would like to pay tribute to the actor playing as the robber, Mr. Jon.”

Rum said.

..

Temporary command room.

The sheriff sat in a daze and his eyes was somewhat listless.

He recalled what Jon had said earlier.

Jon had said that he wanted to give him a surprise.

A surprise, it was really a surprise.

He had snatched a million dollars without his appearance.

It was amazing.

The plan was too perfect.

In this plan, Jon had displayed the perfect deductive ability, psychological conjecture, and disguising ability.

It was simply amazing.

How did he think of doing this?

The sheriff was convinced.

The sheriff smoked a cigarette and said to Ian, “Immediately pull up all the surveillance cameras around Blue Bank after Jon left the bank!”

Ian quickly operated the computer.

A minute later, he pulled up all the surveillance scene and there were more than ten surveillance footage.

The computer screen was instantly covered.

The sheriff watched carefully, but in his heart, he did not have any hope for the surveillance footage.

After all, with Jon’s ability, evading the surveillance footage was as easy as flipping his hand. It was impossible for him to ignore the surveillance cameras.

He should not have expose himself.

As expected, there was no trace of Jon in any of the surveillance footage.

The sheriff rubbed the space between his eyebrows, he gave the order, “Then use Blue Bank as the center and search the area within a five-kilometer radius. There’s another place – the rental house where he lives and the area around it. If we don’t capture Jon within half an hour, he’ll win.”

Actually, at this point… Jon had already won.

What could they do without any information on Jon within half an hour?

Even if Jon found a random place and stayed there for half an hour, the police wouldn’t be able to find him.

But the drill wasn’t over yet, so their actions naturally couldn’t be stopped.

Jon drove slowly down the street.

He drove aimlessly.

There were still more than ten minutes until the end of the drill.

The radio in the car was blaring, almost all of it was about the exercise.

Needless to say, the exercise had already shocked the entire United States.

And through the media reports, he also knew that he had attracted a terrifying amount of attention as the actor who played the robber because he displayed all kinds of high IQ schemes and amazing operations.

It could be said that he was already more popular than most celebrities in the United States now.

And now…

Everyone was paying attention to how this popular exercise would end.

Jon didn’t care how it would end.

What he was most concerned about was the rewards from the system.

As he thought about it, Jon opened the system panel.

On the virtual system panel, the time was counting down.

There were ten minutes left until the end of the drill.

Six minutes.

One minute.

Thirty seconds… twenty seconds… ten seconds…

The drill was over!

At the same time, Jon’s phone rang.

“Jon, the drill is over. You won. Now we’re all at the entrance of Blue Bank. Come over.”

The director’s voice came from the other end of the phone.

Although this drill ended with the defeat of the police and made all the police lose face, the director didn’t show any dissatisfaction.

He was very satisfied with Jon’s attitude towards this drill. And in this drill, the ability Jon had displayed made him even more surprised.

The director couldn’t help but think of what Jon had said to him before the drill.

Jon had said that he would regret his decision of choosing him.

Well, now the results were out.

Regret?

The director didn’t have any regrets in his heart.

However, choosing Jon was indeed the best decision he could make.

“I’ll be there right away,” Jon replied absent-mindedly and hung up the phone.

At this moment, all his thoughts were on the system.

“Ding, mission completed. Do you want to receive the reward now?”

The system’s voice was a little cold, but Jon felt that it was very pleasant to hear.

“Receive it now!”

Without the slightest hesitation, Jon said directly in his heart.

“In this exercise, host’s performance as the robber can be said to be perfect. In the end, you have obtained victory and an S grade rating!”

“You are rewarded with 5,000,000 USD! The money is currently stored in the system store. Host can withdraw it at any time.”

“Obtained reward: vigor of playing as a police (low rank).”

“Obtained reward: God level lock-picking technique (low rank).”

“Obtained reward: 5 attribute points!”

“Obtained reward: 500 points!”

“Skill: combat technique raised to master level.”

“Skill: gun mastery upgraded to master level.”

“Skill: robber’s aura upgraded to beginner level.”

The system notifications kept ringing out.

Although the system’s voice was very cold, Jon felt that it was very pleasant to hear.
