Chapter 178:121, Lin Mo and Chen Shanhe video call! Direct confrontation!_4
“What use are you if I’m the one supporting you?”
Hearing this, the two men in suits trembled like sieves, too terrified to speak. If Chen Kainan was considered crazy, then the man sitting before them, Chen Shanhe, was the person they feared the most in their hearts.
Because Chen Kainan’s temper flared up fast and subsided just as quickly; as long as one could grasp the degree of his moods, they could win his favor.
But Chen Shanhe was different,
He was like an ancient Emperor, inscrutable, providing no chance even for guessing his thoughts, giving off a feeling akin to walking on thin ice while serving a monarch.
“Remember this….”
Chen Shanhe was about to speak when suddenly a mobile phone on the table flashed twice.
His phone contained three SIM cards, corresponding to family, friends, and superiors; each card had a distinct flashing pattern and ringtone. However, the message he just received did not belong to any of these three categories.
A stranger?
Chen Shanhe’s brows furrowed slightly, a bad premonition rising in his heart. At his age, he had forebodings, large and small, about everything he encountered.
These were cultivated over many years.
Picking up the phone and unlocking it, a message appeared before him.
[Hello, Elder Mr. Chen, we are the Abyss Organization. Here is some information about Chen Kainan that I believe you will find very interesting (click this link within five minutes, and you will be able to see Chen Kainan)] Upon seeing the message, Chen Shanhe’s expression darkened abruptly, his eyebrows furrowing deeply, his eyes rapidly processing his thoughts.
The Abyss Organization?
Information about Chen Kainan?
Chen Shanhe had been eager to find any news about Chen Kainan recently.
He wasn’t truly concerned about Chen Kainan’s safety.
What mattered more was determining who was targeting him.
Chen Kainan was his grandson. Although not publicly disclosed, anyone with a bit of power could dig up that information!
Therefore, targeting Chen Kainan was equivalent to declaring war on him!
This was a situation he was determined not to allow.
This was also why, after two months, he still adamantly refused to let go, demanding to see Chen Kainan’s body if dead, or to see him alive if not.
What was more crucial…
He sensed a personal crisis looming over this incident involving Chen Kainan’s disappearance!
He knew too well what tend of person Chen Kainan was.
Crazy, yet extremely cautious.
Very much like himself.
To make Chen Kainan disappear without a trace, leaving no clues, that power was unquestionably formidable!
If he didn’t take this seriously, he himself could end up in danger!
However,
At this moment, when a lead on Chen Kainan lay before him, he didn’t lose his composure.
In just a few breaths, Chen Shanhe had thought of many possibilities.
The entire upper echelon of Rakshasa City was aware of Chen Kainan’s disappearance by now, and it wasn’t out of the question that someone might try to exploit the situation for their own unspeakable secrets.
Chen Shanhe set down his phone and ordered coldly, “Have Wang Xun bring a few members of the Hawk Group with equipment over immediately.”
Wang Xun was one of the Chen family’s butlers.
He was primarily responsible for the family’s cybersecurity and maintaining Chen Kainan’s online reputation.
In this age of information, even top figures invest heavily in cybersecurity, cultivating many talents under their command.
The Hawk Group was one of the organizations trained by Chen Shanhe.
“Yes!”
The two bodyguards nodded hastily and scampered out.
Within two minutes, a 50-something, thin, bald middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses and a few men of roughly the same age rushed into the study.
With less than 3 minutes left before the deadline set in the text message, Chen Shanhe wasted no time in handing over his phone to have the connection’s address checked for danger and potential threats.
After Wang Xun took the phone, he connected it to the computer and immediately got to work.
He first tested the link with a virtual machine and then, shaking his head, said, Elder Chen, the link contains no virus. I’m currently tracing the IP address;
please wait a moment.”
The combined computing power of several professional computers was extremely fast, and in less than a minute, the screen locked onto an IP address.
WangXun’s eyes brightened, and he said hurriedly, “Elder Chen, IVe found it. The IP is in Florida, Japan, but I suspect it’s just a decoy station. The exact location is still being traced.”
Chen Shanhe remained silent, simply watching the computer’s timer, waiting for the final result.
Soon, the IP on the screen’s map flashed, and instantaneously, it displayed a location in Japan.
Then, the IP address started hopping around the world like a dance, and at one point, the decoding program even indicated the IP was at the International Space Station.
This is nuts….
Wang Xun knew that tracking the source would take a while, so he could only respond helplessly, “Elder Chen, the encryption on the other side’s IP is very high level and professional. They’ve set up multiple stations, and locating them will take some time!”
“Also, I confirmed that the time limit for the link is not a bluff. There are only ten seconds left. If you don’t click on the link in time, it will expire.”
“However, rest assured, there’s no Trojan in the link….”
Before he could finish, Chen Shanhe waved his hand, implying that they should leave the study, and then clicked the link on the computer.
The screen switched to a browser window, and after a brief load, the browser revealed something like a video call window. Soon after a few seconds of buffering, the call connected, showing Chen Kainan, with his hands and feet bound, tied to a metal chair..
