“Northern Sea City?”
Upon hearing the name Northern Sea City, Li Jinshan seemed to be struck by a sudden memory and quickly turned his head to look at Zhao Huixian in the back seat, “Huixian, I remember your unit had a trip there before, how is that place?”
Compared to Lin Mo’s parents, Li Jinwen’s parents were clearly calmer.
This was quite normal,
having both received higher education, and in their youth, one being a teacher and the other a civil servant, they had seen more of the world and were more open-minded in their views.
Zhao Huixian’s memories were invoked by Li Jinshan’s question. After thinking for a moment, she said, “That was so many years ago, and we only visited a few tourist spots in a whirlwind tour, without a deep understanding of the local customs, so how would I know what it’s like there.”
“However, there really were a lot of tourists there, a big family of outsiders like us wouldn’t stand out too much.”
“Mo, are you familiar with that place?”
In the end, everyone’s gaze returned to Lin Mo.
Lin Mo had also only been to Northern Sea City once, and since Chen Shanhe couldn’t find him in the village and would definitely analyze his potential destinations after discovering his escape, that’s why he specifically chose a place that was also unfamiliar to himself.
Nevertheless, to give his family some peace of mind, he nodded and said, “Yeah, it’s okay, I’ve been there, and I already have a rough plan in mind. The population there is quite mixed, so even if they discover something, it won’t be easy for them to find us.”
Zhao Huixian glanced at Lin Xiaoxiao, whom she held in her arms, and said worriedly, “By the way, Mo, if we all wear makeup now, how do we explain to the child when she wakes up?”
“She’s still young, but she’s not ignorant of everything, have you thought about that?”
Being older, she thought of everything very comprehensively and took care of all the details.
Li Jinwen, who was still in disguise with just a black hat and face mask, said, “Mom, don’t worry about that, Lin Mo has already explained it to me, and when the child wakes up, I have a way to handle it.”
“You have a way? Okay, just don’t scare the child,” Zhao Huixian reassured when she heard her daughter’s words.
The car quieted down again, the atmosphere a bit oppressive.
Yesterday they were living a happy life, and today they were fleeing to another city like fugitives.
Even if no one blamed Lin Mo, it would take some time to accept this reality.
Li Jinwen looked at Lin Mo, who was furrowing his brow deep in thought, and not wanting all the pressure to fall on him alone, she drew a deep breath, forced a smile, and said, “Dad, Mom, actually, there’s no need to be too pessimistic, let’s just think of it as going on a trip. As long as we remember our new identities and names, everything else can be just like normal!”
“Mom, can you remember your own information now?”
Everyone had not only new identity cards, but also entirely new family relations, social backgrounds, and various other details like educational backgrounds and areas of activity.
“Not yet, I’m old and I memorize things slowly; right now, I only remember that my new identity is Luan Qiongying, 59 years old, previously worked at the Northern Sea City Mining Bureau, and I met your dad through a matchmaker. Your dad is named…”
Zhao Huixian paused, looking towards Li Jinshan at the passenger seat, asking, “Old Li, what’s your name again?”
“What Old Li, there’s nobody here by the surname Li!” Li Jinshan frowned, very serious and correcting the statement strictly, “My name is Kai Caijie, a former teacher at Beihai No. 1 Middle School, 62 years old, residing at Haiyue Huafu Community, Building 1, Unit 2, Room 302, and my ID number is 4505001960122082….”
Mid-way through he asked apprehensively, “Mo, does the house listed here really exist and is it under my name?”
Lin Mo, coming out of his thoughts, nodded and said, “Yes, Dad, all the information provided is real and valid, including the property and the workplace. It’s just that, if you actually went to that workplace, they might not recognize you, but the archive information contains your details.”
“That’s amazing! How did you manage it?” Li Jinshan and Zhao Huixian were both full of surprise.
Goodness,
this was practically like creating a person out of thin air!
It completely overturned his past understanding!
Zhang Li and Lin Changshui were equally astonished and felt it was a bit too unbelievable.
How could this be?
Could falsified documents really manifest into reality?
Fake IDs with real properties tied to them, along with corresponding social connections?
How substantial must one’s abilities be to fabricate a reality to such an extent?
What they didn’t know was that these were the identity cards worth millions, which were certainly different in essence from the fake IDs made casually on the outside.
However, regarding the deep web, Lin Mo didn’t plan to reveal it just yet. Many things needed to be addressed step by step. To reveal too much at once could be too large an information overload and too difficult to accept, not to mention too complicated to explain.
Lin Mo recycled the explanation he had already used many times: “Tai Uncle helped me with all of this, and he spent a lot of money just to create these fake identities.”
“Not only identity information, but even your driving licenses and social security details are also genuine and valid.”
“So, from this moment on, you need to temporarily forget your previous identities and truly integrate yourselves into the new ones!”
At that moment,
the GL8 reached the toll booth at the highway station, Lin Mo used the ETC lane to exit the highway and entered Lingui City.
They were still over 500 kilometers away from Northern Sea City.
