Chapter 189:122, Lin Mo VS Chen Shanhe!_9

But the security guard didn’t tell him; he just kept repeating the rule that non-members are not allowed inside.

Obviously,

money alone couldn’t buy entry to this fishing ground; it was likely a referral system where one needed an inside member’s recommendation to get a membership card.

What should he do?

Under these circumstances, Lin Mo didn’t want to let go of any opportunity to meet Chen Shanhe in person.

He drove his car around the vicinity of the fishing ground and discovered a five-star hotel not far away. The hotel was very tall, and from its higher floors, one could presumably overlook the entire fishing platform.

Lin 1M0 entered the hotel, successfully checked in with Mo Wen’s identity, and specifically requested a room on a high floor with a view of the Hengyun River. The check-in process went very smoothly,

and once he received his room key, Lin Mo began to search his room for any hidden cameras or similar devices.

After making sure there were no dangers, he took out a small telescope he had prepared earlier from his backpack.

Afterward,

he walked to the window of his room, took out the telescope, and quickly located Chen Shanhe, who was leisurely fishing.

There was no change from the first time he had seen him.

Relaxed, content, dressed simply, and looking every part the genteel retired civil servant one might expect to see.

No one would have imagined,

that such an ordinary-looking, seemingly land old man could be responsible for such appalling acts.

Who knows how many innocent families were living lives of utter despair because of him?

The owners of those haunted buildings felt that way, just as Bai Feng’s mother did.

Lin Mo took a deep breath to steady his emotions, observed for a while, then opened the app on his phone and sent out another message.

Hengyun River Fishing Ground.

Chen Shanhe sat by the river with a rod in hand, calmly observing the fishing float, waiting for a fish that might bite at any moment.

He loved fishing but didn’t care for eating fish, simply enjoying the serenity of the empty mind while fishing, feeling time slowly pass, watching the sun rise and set, seeing the water’s spray, and the pleasure of fish struggling in the air.

For him, fishing was a pursuit of ultimate peace and joy.

It was also a way to train one’s mindset.

When fishing, his mind was usually very clear, and he found he was much more efficient when pondering over certain problems.

At that moment,

the float twitched slightly, signifying that a fish was nibbling at the bait.

Just as Chen Shanhe was about to lift the rod, his phone, placed beside him, started ringing.

He picked up the phone casually, unlocked it, and saw a familiar message and a link that was active for only five minutes.

The Abyss Organization had made contact.

Others might have felt nervous or scared, but Chen Shanhe’s expression remained unchanged.

Looking back at the float and noticing no further movement, Chen Shanhe withdrew his gaze and, after a pause of a few seconds, tapped to open the link.

His phone was new, had nothing on it yet, and was connected to a computer controlled by the Hawk Group.

So there was no need to worry about trojans or viruses in the link.

As he accessed the link, the Hawk Group was once again working intensely to locate Lin Mo’s IP address.

In the hotel room.

On Lin Mo’s phone screen, Chen Shanhe’s face appeared.

Because Lin Mo hadn’t activated the video on his end, he wasn’t worried that the other side could see his background and guess his location.

Once he verified the voice changer was on, Lin Mo’s voice sounded unhurriedly: “Old Mr. Chen, you really know how to relax, don’t you? You never forget your fondness for fishing, no matter the circumstances. No wonder you’ve aged so gracefully. I could learn a thing or two from you in that respect.”

Since the video background revealed his fishing location, Chen Shanhe wasn’t surprised by Lin Mo’s words and got straight to the point, “Get on with it. What does the Abyss Organization want me to do?”

“As long as you can guarantee Kainan’s safety, I can assure you your demands will be met.”

Even if he couldn’t care less about Kainan, he still had to put on a front. It was also a method to confuse the opponent.

“Don’t rush, Old Mr. Chen. I wanted to ask… how are the fish biting at the Hengyun River Fishing Ground today?”

Lin Mo chuckled and asked.

Upon hearing Lin Mo’s words, Chen Shanhe was slightly startled.

He looked at himself in the video footage and there was no image that could expose his location.

Then-

How did Lin Mo know he was at Hengyun River Fishing Ground?

Was he being tracked?

Or was there an insider close to him?

The next moment, Chen Shanhe cautiously surveyed his surroundings and the rows of houses in the distance.

“Hehe…”

“Stop looking, Elder Mr. Chen, if I dare to reveal this information, it’s naturally because I am already in an absolutely safe place,”

Lin Mo said calmly.

The hotel he was staying in was not far from the Hengyun River Fishing Ground.

Chen Shanhe would very likely investigate this hotel afterwards.

But this was exactly what Lin Mo wanted, for if not, his disguised identity would be meaningless.

His goal was to do everything possible to confuse Chen Shanhe’s perception.

“Old Mr. Chen, you haven’t answered my question yet.”

“Hehe… It’s mediocre, but if you’re interested in fishing as well, I can treat you,”

“No need, I and Elder Mr. Chen, are not on the same path,”

“Alright, let’s cut the chitchat and get to the point,” Lin Mo didn’t continue to beat around the bush with Chen Shanhe and said, “Old Mr. Chen, do you remember the residential area called Kundahua Mansion in the North City District?”

Hm?

Chen Shanhe didn’t know why the other party would bring that up, and after frowning slightly, he said, “I have some impression, it should be an unfinished housing project, but what does that have to do with clearing Kainan’s name of his sins?”

“Of course, it’s related,”

Lin Mo said with a hint of a smile, “Elder Mr. Chen, you really have a short memory, indeed important people tend to forget things. It seems 1 need to jog your memory about the relationship between you and the president of the Kundahua Mansion real estate developer who got sent to jail.”

Chen Shanhe’s brow furrowed slightly once more.

He didn’t expect that the other party would even know about this!

Inevitably, he began to speculate again about who the other party could be and why they knew so many of his secrets?

Could it be someone who was once his confidant?

Someone who worked by his side?

And since the other party had brought it up, it looked like they had already investigated the background of Kundahua Mansion.

There was no point in hiding it any longer.

But Chen Shanhe didn’t directly admit anything and instead countered, “Just say it, what do you want me to do.”

Quite calm, aren’t you!

Lin Mo admired the old man’s psychological fortitude as he watched Chen Shanhe on the screen.

After a brief pause of a few seconds, Lin Mo said, “With your ability, it’s quite simple… 1 want you to give a full refund to all homebuyers within 48 hours, plus the highest bank interest compensation.”

“?????”

This demand from Lin Mo made Chen Shanhe’s eyelids twitch.

He considered all possibilities, but he never thought that the demand from the Abyss Organization would be this!

What does this mean, is it charity work?

“How about it, isn’t this land of thing very simple for you, Old Mr. Chen?”

“You… What do you mean?”

Chen Shanhe’s brows furrowed, and he said in a deep voice, “The failure of the residential project is a market behavior, with many force majeure factors. Why should I be the one to pay for it?”

“Force majeure?”

Lin Mo’s tone was slightly disappointed, “Old Mr. Chen, that’s where you are wrong, you are underestimating our Abyss Organization…”
