Chapter 325: 138, software is ready, live streaming started! The whole family appears on camera, facing Chen Shanhe!_8
“Don’t worry, there’s no danger, I’m sure to return safely.”
Lin Mo smiled and nodded, gently stroking Li Jinwen’s back, “Also, is there anything you want to say? Tell me, and I’ll say it for you!”
“Yes!”
Li Jinwen said a lot.
Lin Mo silently took note of it all.
After a while, Li Jinwen asked, “Honey, have you found a place for the live broadcast? Technology is so advanced now, I’ve seen in movies that they can pinpoint a location with just a photo. If you show the plants or sky outside the window, they can lock down the general area.”
Lin Mo nodded and said, “You don’t have to worry about that at all. This isn’t my first time sending a video call to Chen Shanhe. I have experience in this area. If he could find me, he would have done so already.”
“Rest assured, the place has already been found. Let’s go there early tomorrow, shed our disguises, and be ourselves for a day.”
“Yes!”
Li Jinwen gently nodded her head.
…..
Next day, early morning.
Although the livestream wasn’t until the evening, the family all got up early from bed.
After breakfast, armed with food for lunch and dinner, everyone followed Lin Mo out of the house.
Lin Xiaoxiao asked curiously, “Mommy, what are Daddy and the others going to do? Why can’t we go with them?”
“Daddy and the crew are going to fight little monsters.” Li Jinwen, while patting her daughter’s head, smiled and said, “We’ll wait at home for Daddy and the others to return triumphantly.”
Lin Xiaoxiao said with a pout, “Mommy, I also want to fight monsters. I want to go with Daddy and them.”
“But Mommy can’t go, sweetheart. There’s a little baby in Mommy’s tummy, and Daddy and the others are worried about Mommy going with them. That’s why they want you to stay home and take care of Mommy.” Li Jinwen took her daughter and sat down on the sofa, asking, “Can you take on the responsibility of taking care of Mommy?”
Lin Xiaoxiao then sensibly nodded her head and said, “Yes! Don’t worry, Mommy, I will definitely take good care of you.”
Li Jinwen also broke into a smile, but she didn’t notice a crystal-clear tear falling to the ground from the corner of her eye.
….
After leaving the residential area, Zhang Li drove a van filled with the family to a villa in the suburbs.
This was a house that Lin Mo had rented in advance, intended as a place for the family to move to in case of any trouble.
The villa itself was not particularly remote, but was well-screened by the plentiful trees around it.
The group didn’t linger on the first floor but followed Lin Mo down to the basement.
The room was large, roughly a hundred or two hundred square meters, unfinished with the bare concrete floor.
Lin Mo instructed, “We’re going to livestream here tonight, so the first thing to do is to clean the basement. The painted walls must all be covered with black cloth so that no information can be leaked.”
“Everyone should also repeat to me what they plan to say to avoid leaking any important intel. This is very important.”
Looking at the ‘strange’ faces in front of him, Lin Mo sighed and said, “Now, let’s all remove our disguises first, then we’ll do the other tasks together.”
Hearing that they could remove their disguises, everyone was happy. They took out specially-made solutions from their luggage and busied themselves.
Lin Mo started to remove his makeup, and gradually the family revealed their true appearances.
Due to the prolonged use of disguises, everyone’s skin had turned much paler. Although not as extreme as leukemia patients, their worn looks were evident.
Especially on the faces of the parents, there were many more wrinkles than before.
Seeing all this, a nameless anger rose in Lin Mo’s heart.
Who would want to live like a rat, hiding their name, if given the choice?
Why should they?
If he truly had done something wrong, trying to evade the police would be one thing, but what had Lin Mo done wrong?
And what had his family done wrong?
Until now, their family’s warrants for arrest had not been withdrawn. Every once in a while on short video platforms, he would see villagers or former friends posting about them to seek attention.
In their mouths, Lin Mo and his family were described as deserving death, as extremely vicious villains who should be caught and shot.
If they were only cursing Lin Mo, he might still be able to bear it.
But once they started to slander, it would also bring disrepute to everyone around Lin Mo.
Including his 8-year-old daughter, who was depicted as a devil, unable to escape the online persecution.
Furthermore, Lin Mo had recently received some very bad news.
Zhang Yihua’s “Divine Enthronement” had been shut down, and without a miracle, he would never be featured on any website again.
In order to pay the studio staff, he had sold the only home his parents had, and now he was working as a construction worker to pay off debts.
When Lin Mo saw this news, he felt a mix of emotions. Zhang Yihua was in this situation because of him, yet ironically, there was no way he could help Zhang Yihua through any channel, as Chen Shanhe’s people were watching him.
Even if Lin Mo could deceive Chen Shanhe and help Zhang Yihua anonymously, as soon as his life improved, he would surely face persecution again.
They might even have to live like my family, concealing their surnames and barely surviving.
Bai Feng’s mother also passed away; the old lady was calling out Bai Feng’s name loudly as she took her last breath.
Unfortunately, her son was imprisoned in Chen Shanhe’s jail, and to this day, he doesn’t know about this terrible news.
When Du Nanxue learned of this, she even considered going straight to Chen Shanhe to fight to the death, but fortunately, Lin Mo got hold of this intelligence in advance and prevented her from rushing in like a moth to the flame.
Lin Mo kept thinking about these matters.
At the same time, he was discussing with his family what content should be covered in the live broadcast and the possible situations they might face.
In the face of immense pressure, the family members were all very nervous, not knowing what to say or ask, just following Lin Mo’s arrangements and commands.
….
Time was slowly ticking away.
At 9:45 PM, Dark sent a video request, which Lin Mo immediately accepted, and this time, he didn’t block the camera.
He was going to reveal his face during the live broadcast soon, so hiding it any longer was pointless.
Looking at Lin Mo’s pale face, Dark remarked, “Abyss, it seems you’re bearing more than I imagined.”
“Are those your family members behind you? Send my regards to them.”
Lin Mo’s lips curved into a slight, not entirely unappealing smile, “Hmm, I hope your family lives a long and prosperous life too. Is the live broadcast software ready? What should I be careful about later on?”
Dark replied, “You don’t need to worry too much about anything. Just express what you want to say freely, and we’ll handle the rest. That’s our job.”
Lin Mo politely said, “Thank you.”
Dark laughed, “No need to be polite. You’re a great guy, and also a generous client. We’re just working for you because of the money.”
That’s what he said,
but as one of the world’s top hackers diagnosed with a terminal illness, Dark was in no way short of money or trapped by it.
It was just a mutual respect.
Between men, there’s no need for such sentimentality. Lin Mo nodded seriously and did not say anything further.
He had also been keeping an eye on the cutting-edge technology of pharmaceutical sciences in various countries. If Dark could help him get rid of Chen Shanhe, Lin Mo certainly wouldn’t mind trying to help him look for a cure for cancer.
….
Grand Xia Country time: [21:59:00].
A live broadcast interface appeared on Lin Mo’s laptop screen along with a blood-red countdown timer lighting up.
Watching the countdown, the family also started to feel tense.
They knew what they were about to face and that after the live broadcast, their family would definitely become the focus of public discussion again.
Online violence, which seems intangible, can actually be fatal.
But this step had to be taken!
“It’s starting.”
“Everyone, don’t be nervous, it’s okay, I’m here for everything.”
“No matter what you see later, don’t argue with others or engage in disputes; we don’t have that much time.”
“Do as I instructed earlier!”
“Yes!”
“Understood!”
“Brother, we are all prepared.”
“Huff…”
