At this moment, the camera shifted outside the building, capturing both the third and fourth floors. The audience clearly saw the splashes of water from the fourth floor and the Plainclothes Team, while on the third floor, Xu Lie casually discarded a rope in the bathroom.
Two members of the Plainclothes Team reacted swiftly, charging through the curtain of water without hesitation. They paid no mind to the noise; the faucet had already been knocked off, creating quite a commotion.
Guo Zi Lian drew his gun and chambered a round, preparing to break down the door. The Tall Person leaped onto the partition wall of the bathroom stall, looking down from above—there was no one inside. In the next stall, he made a flying leap to another partition, still finding no one, and continued to the next.
Guo Zi Lian silently coordinated with him, following closely. After four consecutive leaps through the air, the Tall Person urgently reported, "Report! Lost sight of the target; they are not in the bathroom."
In times like these, brevity was essential. The faucet and other noises were of little value; it was clear that Xu Lie had left in haste, and time was of the essence. Guo Zi Lian quickly ran to the windowsill and scanned outside at a glance—there were no lab coats or anyone running away.
He could see a colleague from the Plainclothes Team guarding the back door of the outpatient department, and a drone was hovering above. Guo Zi Lian felt a wave of relief wash over him. His eyes caught sight of fresh marks on the windowsill where ropes had been violently scraped: "Old Hong! There are marks! Downward! They didn't escape outside!"
The Tall Person understood: it was highly likely that the target had used pre-prepared ropes or strips to jump from the bathroom to a lower floor without escaping outside!
Zhang Yutao, commanding from the Special Investigation Team's headquarters, felt that things were getting complicated. He didn't rush to arrange for the Tall Person and Guo Zi Lian but instead picked up another communication device.
The target might have jumped from the bathroom! The first two teams quickly descended to lower floors, instructing the Plainclothes Team stationed there to watch for suspicious individuals. At the same time, they cautiously approached the bathroom, keeping a close watch until all personnel from three floors arrived before entering to search.
As soon as they reached their floor, members of the Plainclothes Team halted their steps and crowded downwards. The team that had remained by the elevator began to move.
While the Tall Person and Guo Zi Lian were checking the bathroom, Xu Lie had already removed his mask and lab coat, pulling out a black shirt that Mini Robot had hidden away for him. He then donned a khaki scarf, wrapping it tightly around his head and face.
The technological level in Drama World was similar to Xu Lie's previous life; combined with surveillance systems, it was formidable enough to filter results quickly. However, wrapped so tightly, they couldn't do anything about him.
Xu Lie moved quickly; this head-wrapping trick could at most temporarily deceive facial recognition systems but wouldn't fool members of the Monitoring Team who were watching live through cameras.
Unfortunately, with so many people in the hospital, Mini Robot couldn't be exposed in public; otherwise, it could have sent drones out to dismantle surveillance equipment and neutralize the eyes of the Special Investigation Team.
At present, Xu Lie's appearance outside looked extremely suspicious; passersby might even report him to the police.
However, if it were in a hospital, it would seem much more normal; at least the passersby would think it was some kind of illness that shouldn't be exposed to the public.
When Zhang Yutao received the report and subsequent arrangements, Xu Lie swaggered out, taking note of the audience's comments.
"Just now, when Xu Lie jumped out the window, I was really startled; it seems he was prepared for this!"
"The Special Investigation Team has also made proper arrangements; they didn’t rush upstairs all at once but left a team on the lower floors to prevent the man from escaping."
"Haha, I’m really looking forward to seeing Xu Lie like this; as soon as he comes out, he runs into the Plainclothes Team. The way he’s wrapped up really makes him stand out."
"To be honest, as long as the Plainclothes Team isn’t blind, they should be able to catch Xu Lie easily."
Hmm? Is there still this matter?
Xu Lie, hindered by his disguise, had a very narrow field of vision; he could only see directly in front of him and was unsure if there were any Plainclothes Team members around him.
But he needed to find someone to help and try his best to avoid drawing suspicion.
