It wasn’t successful.
Try again!
Finally, after several failed attempts, at last, a blinding flash of light lit up the pitch- black night sky.
Bang… Crack…
Flames scattered, and the sound of crackling erupted, followed immediately by the entire village plunging into darkness.
“We did it!”
Lin Mo was elated in his heart. Without delay, he picked up the thick iron wire that had melted on the ground and hurried towards his car, quickly getting inside.
Throughout the process, Lin Mo was strikingly calm.
Even after returning to the car, he didn’t seem out of breath.
After so many days of experience, he seemed to have adapted to this feeling…
Lin Mo turned on his phone’s flashlight, and with the help of the faint light, he unwrapped the packaging of the pig’s head meat he had bought from the store and took out the food inside.
Lin Mo used an injector to administer a small amount of the anesthesia given to him by Song Xuyan into the pig’s trotters.
After completing these tasks, Lin Mo first released the fully charged drone before stealthily approaching the side wall of house number 139.
With one strong effort, he threw large chunks of pig’s head meat over the wall.
Woof… Woof woof…
A muffled barking resounded from the yard.
Lin Mo hid in the corner, staring intently at his phone screen.
Soon, several vicious dogs that had wolfed down the pig’s head meat all slumped down, motionless.
At this time, the village was also stirring as many villagers walked out of their homes to ask their neighbors if they had lost power as well.
Lin Mo then used the drone’s infrared mode to confirm that the surveillance in the yard had stopped working before he cautiously approached the front door of house number 139.
The front door was equipped with a passcode and fingerprint lock, but of course, Lin Mo did not have Chen Kainan’s fingerprint.
However, among the intelligence from the past few days, there were Chen Kainan’s commonly used passwords.
“Let’s try the password first, if that doesn’t work, we’ll have to climb over the side wall!”
The wall was very high, and even though Lin Mo was physically fit, climbing it wouldn’t be easy.
Cracking the code would certainly be best.
Beep… Beep beep… Beep beep beep…
After entering all the passwords, Lin Mo took a deep breath, his expression grave as he pressed the confirm button.
With a green light and a beep, the door opened in response.
There wasn’t much joy on Lin Mo’s face. After looking around to make sure no one noticed him, he quietly entered, and with a backward pull, he closed the door again.
The weather tonight was not good, and visibility was poor.
Because of the power cut, Lin Mo couldn’t see the specifics of the yard clearly.
He turned on his phone flashlight and walked over to the several vicious dogs that were now unconscious. Alerted by his footsteps, the dogs tried to get up, but they faltered and fell again.
Lin Mo had come prepared.
During the day, he had already tested it at the dog market.
The dosage of the anesthetic he had administered was just right, enough to keep the dogs unconscious for about an hour. After an hour, they would be back to their energetic selves!
The Intelligence System reported that Chen Kainan would only come here after midnight, which meant that by the time Chen Kainan arrived, the dogs would have already recovered.
Unless the dogs could talk, there was no way for Chen Kainan to notice anything amiss.
Lin Mo quickly walked up to the front door of the house, which had the same passcode and fingerprint lock, and pressed the same password again.
Beep…
The entrance door opened once more in response, and the dark space inside seemed like a beast, opening its crimson maw, waiting for Lin Mo to enter and be swallowed whole.
Lin Mo clenched his teeth secretly, his expression showing no sign of retreat. With one hand holding the phone and the other gripping the scalpel he had obtained from Song Xuyan the day before, he stepped inside.
After observing with the drone for a long time before, there were no lights on in the room, and there was no movement inside the house following the power outage, so it was highly likely that no one was there.
But Lin Mo did not let his guard down because of this, constantly on alert for
the dark corners that the phone s light could not illuminate.
Nervous?
Of course, he was nervous.
Sweat had started to bead on Lin Mo’s forehead, and his heartbeat was picking up speed.
But, there was no choice!
These things, they had to be done!
After entering the house and locking the entrance door, Lin Mo carefully inspected the first floor. He found no significant signs of life or common drug paraphernalia.
The floor was clean, indicating someone cleaned regularly, and there was food and vegetables in the refrigerator in the kitchen.
Moreover, in the freezer compartment of the refrigerator, a large amount of meat was stacked and frozen solid.
Lin Mo took a closer look and felt it didn’t quite resemble pork, but he also couldn’t tell what kind of meat it was.
Additionally, in the corner of the living room, there was an exceptionally large aquarium containing a fish with a two-meter-long body and rigid enamel-like scales covering its entire body, giving off the appearance of a ferocious creature.
Lin Mo had seen it on TikTok before; this fish seemed to be called the moray eel, one of the world’s most ferocious carnivorous fish.
There wasn’t much to be found on the first floor, and Lin Mo prepared to check out the second floor.
So far, he hadn’t found a reason why Chen Kainan would come here late at night.
This was not a good sign.
Just as Lin Mo was about to go upstairs, he noticed, under the illumination of his phone’s flashlight, that a thin layer of dust covered the staircase steps, evidently untouched for a long time.
Not often going to the second floor?
There were living supplies on the first floor, traces of cooking in the kitchen, fresh vegetables in the fridge…
All these indicated that Chen Kainan probably came here often.
But with nothing on the first floor and no visits to the second floor, why was that?
Could it simply be that this house held some special significance for him?
Visiting every day to spend some time?
Similar to Gao Qiqiang in the recent hit TV series “Raging Storm,” this place was where he made his fortune, so he often came back to check on it?
Impossible,
It’s very unlikely!
Lin Mo quickly dismissed this thought because, according to his investigation, let alone Chen Kainan, his father was already at the top echelons of society from the moment he was born!
Then…
What on earth did Chen Kainan come here for?
The Intelligence System mentioned there were things here that Chen Kainan yearned for.
What were the things he yearned for?
Lin Mo glanced at his phone screen.
There was still more than an hour until midnight.
Meaning, Chen Kainan would not be here for another hour or so.
Should he find a place to hide first?
And then, once Chen Kainan showed up, launch a surprise attack on him!
Lin Mo began to look for places to hide.
And he speculated where in the house Chen Kainan might linger.
The room was very dark.
Very quiet.
Even the sound of the moray eel slowly swimming in the tank was audible!
“This fish is kept so well; it must be fed daily.”
“Chen Kainan might also feed it today. Hiding near the fish tank…”
Lin Mo walked toward the fish tank to scope out a good place to hide.
But as he approached the fish tank, he faintly heard something off about his own footsteps.
It wasn’t that Lin Mo had exceptionally good hearing, but rather that the room was so silent, even the slightest noise caught one’s attention!
“Hmm?”
He immediately crouched down and gently tapped the floor with his index and middle fingers, then tapped the floor next to it.
He noticed indeed a slight difference in sound!
Yes!
How could I have forgotten about this?
The basement!
If the first floor was clear and there were no signs of going upstairs, then it was very likely that there was a basement!
With this realization, Lin Mo began to search below, inch by inch, probing for gaps in the floorboards.
Through constant tapping and testing, he was certain that the structure under this section of the floor was definitely not reinforced concrete!
At that moment, Lin Mo noticed something off about the power strip next to the fish tank!
He walked over to examine it carefully and with a gentle push, the power strip popped open, revealing an electric control button. After pressing it, there was a click like a mechanical switch being triggered, and the area of the floor he had been probing slightly popped up.
There was indeed a basement!
So…
The things mentioned in the Intelligence System that Chen Kainan longed for, were they in the basement?
What could it be?
Should he go down to see?
Io be honest, Lin Mo was hesitant because he wasn’t sure what might be in the basement.
But if the basement was the place Chen Kainan visited every day, then it was obviously better to hide there to have more opportunities to ambush Chen Kainan. Besides, he had already looked around the living room and couldn’t find particularly good hiding spots.
“Go down!”
Considering Chen Kainan’s combat strength, Lin Mo bit the bullet and made up his mind.
