This feeling is indescribable!
Just as only the person drinking knows whether the water is cold or warm!
“Hiss… hiss…”
He sniffled his somewhat blocked nose.
After stepping out of the abandoned construction site and sitting in the warm, comfortable car, Lin Mo’s mood became even heavier.
Because he knew, in Rakshasa City, and even throughout Grand Xia Country, ghostly buildings like this were countless!
And so were the pitifully lowly people!
Clenching the steering wheel, his brows furrowed tightly, the veins on the back of his hand all bulging out.
After having personally experienced the scene, his resolve towards a previous idea deepened!
After returning to the hotel, Lin Mo first took a bath, removed all the disguise from his face, and then, as usual, made a video call home to check in and report his safety.
At this time, everyone at home was in the living room, with the floor strewn with the remnants of sunflower seeds and peanuts.
Without saying, it was clear that many relatives had visited the house today.
It couldn’t be helped,
The Land Rover Range Rover had a huge impact in the countryside, and the one he bought was the top model. A look up online or on TikTok would reveal its price.
A landed price of nearly 3 million, it was bound to cause a sensation.
Moreover, through a chat with Li Jinwen, Lin Mo found out that many relatives who visited his house today were not just there to connect but also to borrow money.
In less than two weeks it would be the New Year, times were tough, and this year’s harvest had been affected by cold weather and blizzards, so they wanted to borrow some money to get through the New Year.
There were also some who weren’t short of money but simply came to mooch off, trying to borrow as much as they could. As long as the money fell into their pockets, it was profit.
As for paying it back?
Why should one pay back the money cleverly borrowed?
When his wife told him about these things, Lin Mo was worried that his parents would be soft-hearted and lend out the money, which would be a disaster.
He knew that to avoid being bullied in the countryside, having money was definitely a form of strength, but that alone wasn’t enough.
If you were too soft-hearted, you’d easily be taken advantage of, and people would concoct ways to swindle you. If you refused to lend, they would make trouble for you.
Those who let you host the gambling were not uncommon, and the gambling was almost always rigged.
Lin Mo had heard of cases where people lost all their money on New Year’s Eve and then had to go out looking for work on the first day of the New Year.
Hosting on the eve and impressing all around. Leaving the village on the first day of the New Year.
This was not just an empty talk.
Fortunately, his parents handled these matters very steadily.
They told those over-familiar relatives that they had just bought a car and land, and there were three bedridden patients at home, where could they have extra money?
You’re looking to borrow money, but I would like to borrow from you!
After chatting with his family for a while, his parents went to sleep, and Li Jinwen started sharing some amusing incidents with Lin Mo.
Lin Mo now had many identities in the village.
The most exaggerated rumor was that he was the leader of a swindling group from Northern Myanmar, that he had returned to the country to seek refuge due to the war there, and that all his money had been scammed from others.
Money that came easily and was not clean, that was why he didn’t hesitate to spend 3 million on a car.
If he didn’t enjoy it quickly, sooner or later he would be caught!
Alas,
Lin Mo suddenly felt very sentimental,
Toiling away in Rakshasa City, whether pretending to be part of the Abyss Organization or masquerading as Mo Wen, a WW tycoon, in the end, he still couldn’t outdo the village’s old ladies.
In intelligence, they were the true professionals.
After saying goodnight to Li Jinwen and hanging up the phone, Lin Mo lay on the bed, contemplating his schedule for the next day.
Yesterday, while pretending to be from the Abyss Organization and strategizing over video call with Chen Shanhe, he had told him that within 4.8 hours, he would let him know what to do to clear Chen Kainan of his sins.
And tomorrow was the last day.
Of course, this so-called cleansing of sins was merely a formality; the real purpose that Lin Mo wanted to achieve was certainly not that simple.
Lin Mo was diligently investigating Chen Shanhe.
Chen Shanhe’s underlings were also busy. Aside from investigating anyone who had a grudge against Chen Shanhe as planned, they also allocated some men to investigate the Abyss Organization.
Meanwhile, the locking in on the IP used for the video call was ongoing.
However, a whole day had passed, and they still had no leads.
The next day.
Lin Mo came to the doorstep of Zhang Guilin’s home, carrying some fruit in his own identity.
The House of Glory sign at the front door was still there, but it looked as if it hadn’t been cleaned for a while and was covered in dust.
Thump… thump thump…
Lin Mo knocked on the door lightly and waited quite a while before someone finally came to open the door.
The person who opened the door was a lady in her 60s. She eyed Lin Mo and asked with curiosity, “Young man, who are you looking for?”
Lin Mo didn’t recognize the lady, but was sure he hadn’t taken the wrong door and politely said, “Excuse me, does Auntie Zhang Guilin live here?”
The woman nodded, still puzzled, and asked, “You are…?”
Lin Mo introduced himself, “My name is Lin Mo. I’m a friend of Officer Bai, and Auntie knows me. I’ve come to see how she’s doing.”
“Feng’s friend?” Auntie’s eyes turned slightly red as she nodded and said, “It’s cold outside, come in and talk.”
Lin Mo followed her inside, casually placed the gifts on a nearby cabinet, and looked around the living room.
The arrangement of the living room hadn’t changed much from before, it was clean and tidy, the only difference was that Bai Feng’s photo had been taken down..
