Chapter 379: 145, oh my goodness! Lin Mo and Chen Shanhe met in the elevator! _1
“`
“What’s the matter? Son?”
“What happened?”
Lin Changshui and the others all got up anxiously, rushed to Lin Mo’s side, and stared at the already dark screen with burning anxiety.
Vaguely, they could still hear a voice calling out, “Xu… Xu!!!”
“In-law, what’s wrong with you?”
“Grandma, grandma, are you okay, grandma!”
It was Lin Xiaoxiao’s voice.
“In-law, did you fall, does it hurt, it’s all my fault, all my fault.”
It was Xu Qin’s voice.
“I’m fine… Ow… I’m fine, in-law, help me up, ow, the floor is too slippery.”
It was Zhao Huixian’s voice.
Lin Mo and the others didn’t dare to speak, holding their breath and listening intently to the intermittent voices coming from the phone.
Soon,
the phone screen came back on, with Lin Xiaoxiao picking up the phone and saying to the screen, “Dad, grandma accidentally took a fall.”
Phew…
So that was it, everyone let out a sigh of relief.
Li Jinshan said irritably, “You scared me to death, I thought that old geezer found us.”
“Is the fall serious, does it hurt? Is anything wrong?”
At that moment, Zhao Huixian took over the phone, her expression somewhat pained as she said, “It’s nothing, I just wasn’t careful stepping out and fell, it’s not serious, you guys don’t need to worry.”
“Hey, it’s not so easy to be found! When you returned to the country, didn’t you specifically switch us to a new estate to avoid being found?”
Xu Qin said with a hint of apology, “It’s all my fault, I just mopped the floor, and it’s particularly slippery, all my fault.”
“In-law, what are you talking about, it’s nothing to blame for an accidental fall, you already told me you had just mopped, it’s my own fault for not paying attention.” After resting for a while and rubbing her waist, Zhao Huixian had recovered and said with a smile, “Son, I’m going to the monitoring room, wait a moment.”
Lin Mo hurriedly said, “Mom, forget it, just sit and rest, I’ll have Fox and Scorpion check it out, you better not move.”
Fox and Scorpion were captains of two mercenary squads previously hired by Lin Mo to snipe Chen Ze, later recruited by Lin Mo with a heavy salary, primarily responsible for providing peripheral protection for the family.
Before his return to the country this time, he deliberately used a completely new identity to find a new place to live for both his mothers and the children.
There were two purposes in doing so,
The first definitely to avoid being found by Chen Shanhe.
The second was so that, if they couldn’t make it back, the two mothers could still carry on with the children.
It wasn’t that Lin Mo had the foresight to know something would happen this time.
It’s just that he had become habitually cautious, always preparing completely for any risk that might exist.
“Alright, then I won’t go, ow, have them do the check.”
Zhao Huixian didn’t force herself either, as the fall, although not severe, still hurt.
Xu Qin was massaging her waist, also blaming herself.
Lin Xiaoxiao took the phone and asked, “Dad, where are you? When will you be done and come back?”
Seeing his daughter, Lin Mo answered with a smile, “There’s no flight tonight, we can only catch the plane tomorrow morning, we should be home by evening.”
“Mmm, then when you come back, can you bring me some sea duck eggs? I really want to eat those.” Lin Xiaoxiao smacked her lips, looking like a little glutton.
Sea duck eggs are eggs laid by ducks living in the mangroves by the sea, and because they eat the small fish and shrimps from the beach year-round, the eggs they lay are very tasty, and are considered a special product of Northern Sea City.
Lin Mo lived in the Ruyi Garden Community in the Northern Sea City area, with various breakfast and specialty stores downstairs, making it very convenient to buy anything.
He nodded with a smile, “Okay, Dad will get up early tomorrow to buy you sea duck eggs, see if there’s anything else you want to eat, I’ll try to bring back as much as I can.”
Li Jinwen gave Lin Mo, the doting father, a white look, and advised, “You’re just spoiling her, she can’t eat so many snacks.”
“Xiaoxiao, I heard from Grandma that since we left, you haven’t been doing your homework properly?”
Hearing her mother’s voice, Lin Xiaoxiao’s neck shrank, and she quickly handed the phone back to Zhao Huixian, running off as she said, “Mom, I can’t talk to you anymore, I have to do my homework!!”
The whole family was amused by her antics and couldn’t help but laugh.
….
On the other hand.
The northern part of the Alps, the northwest end of Lake Zurich.
Hellhound and several of his elite mercenary team members pushed open the last room door in the estate, and other than the fine furniture and the cleanly swept floor, there was nothing else.
Hellhound furrowed his brow, put down his gun, and pressed the communication button to ask, “Elder Chen, there’s nobody in the estate, is there an error in your information?”
If there were people in the estate but they failed to catch them, letting them escape, that was Hellhound’s responsibility.
But if the intelligence was wrong and they struck an empty blow, then it had nothing to do with him.
Chen Shanhe had been watching the video the whole time, his expression already icy cold, he hadn’t expected this outcome either.
To think, he had nearly arranged the overseas operation the moment he received Wang Xun’s intelligence, up until Hellhound’s team arrived at the estate, the entire process took no more than half an hour.
Yet even so, it was still a fruitless attempt.
No,
looking at the furnishings in the room, it didn’t look like a last-minute notice and hasty escape, but more like they hadn’t been living in the estate beforehand.
“Had he anticipated that I would find out about his estate in advance?”
“What a cunning rat!”
“It’s been so many years since I’ve gone up against such a formidable opponent!”
“Interesting.”
Chen Shanhe was a bit surprised that there was nobody in the estate but only a bit.
