Chapter 411: 150, Chen Shanhe is shocked! Lin Mo is far in the distance but close at hand?_1
Not only did Lin Mo criticize Lin Siyu and Zhang Li, but he criticized everyone present.
Although it made everyone feel depressed, at least it calmed everyone down and reduced the panic.
Zhang Li spoke with an apologetic tone, “Bro, I’m sorry, we’ve been too dependent on you. You’re right, absolutely right. We must grow quickly now, be able to solve our own problems instead of being a burden.”
Lin Siyu also followed, “Bro, I… I know I was wrong, and I will try hard to think of solutions from now on!”
Lin Changshui added, “Also, let’s not focus too much on self-criticism. The problem is before us, and we should discuss how to find a solution.”
What Dad said was exactly what Lin Mo wanted to say.
Although the family had calmed down for the moment, if he didn’t find something for them to do, they would soon become even more tense due to the pressure of the numerous police officers throughout the airport.
So, it was essential to involve them in the plan, similar to when they had just arrived in Northern Sea City.
“The ship will straighten itself when it reaches the bridge, and there will be a road when the car gets to the mountain!”
“In any situation, don’t lose your footing. If soldiers come, block them; if water comes, cover it with earth!”
“Prepare for the worst. Even if our identities are truly exposed, it’s not a road to certain death!”
Lin Mo looked around and noticed that no one was paying attention to him, then spoke again, “Moreover, you don’t need to worry too much. The makeup we’re wearing can’t be removed just with ordinary remover. It requires a special makeup remover, which you all know. You just forgot because you were panicking.”
“Look, there are so many travelers in the airport, and the more people, the less noticeable we are. It’s unlikely any officers will interrogate us for the time being.”
“I think it’s best to treat our current situation as a challenge. Put yourself in our shoes and think about how we can escape.”
“I’m going to hang up the phone now. Let’s chat in the group; it’s less conspicuous that way.”
After finishing, Lin Mo immediately hung up the phone.
The matter he just mentioned about makeup removal was more about comforting his family, so they wouldn’t be too tense.
They did need a special solution to remove their disguises, but if Chen Shanhe had truly set a trap at the airport, how could he not consider this?
Most likely, they would use a special makeup remover.
Moreover, Lin Mo was almost certain that apart from the obvious police presence, Chen Shanhe’s people were certainly hidden in the airport.
If they were exposed, the consequences would be very serious.
However, he still couldn’t understand something: with the supercomputers of Grand Xia unable to find them, how had Chen Shanhe ascertained their presence in Northern Sea City?
A murder occurred not long after their live broadcast, with the killer looking similar to him and throwing the body at the doorstep of Six Fan Gate as a provocation.
If it was indeed done by Chen Shanhe, then it at least indicated that he knew their whereabouts right after the live broadcast ended.
“There must be a problem with one of the steps!”
“I need to find time to talk to Dark, ask if anything suspicious happened during the live broadcast.”
“But right now, the priority is to stabilize my family and get them out of the airport!”
Lin Mo surveyed the surrounding area and pointed to the nearby waiting area seats, “Wife, Dad, we can’t leave for a while. Let’s sit over there and slowly think of a way out. Otherwise, standing here might draw more suspicion.”
“Alright, we’ll follow your lead,” Li Jinwen nodded in agreement.
“Let’s go!” Li Jinshan, dragging his luggage, followed them.
The rest area wasn’t crowded; there were only about five or six people sitting and waiting for their flights.
Lin Mo and his family found an empty area, sat down, and began to think of ways to solve their problem, sharing their ideas in the group chat.
Lin Siyu was the first to speak, “Can’t we create a distraction, like a power outage or something, and escape in the confusion? I’ve seen it done in TV shows; it might just work.”
Zhang Li replied, “That definitely won’t work. No one knows we’re in the airport right now, but if we cause a commotion, people will immediately suspect that the murderer is up to something, and the lockdown will become even tighter.”
“Just look at the police force here, even if a small disruption occurs, it’s impossible for anyone to slip away.”
Lin Mo, agreeing with Zhang Li’s response, nodded earnestly.
It was indeed the case: the whole airport was secured tightly like a barrel, and any unusual noise would raise suspicion and lead to more stringent checks.
Planning to escape in chaos was simply unrealistic, and would only draw the attention of whoever was behind the scenes.
Lin Siyu: “Then what should we do? I really can’t think of anything. We can’t just take hostages, can we?”
Li Jinwen, frowning, joined the discussion in the group chat: “Even if we take hostages, under the current circumstances, those people probably wouldn’t let us go so easily. Moreover, without weapons, we can’t take that many people hostage.”
“My idea is to wait a bit longer, wait until it gets dark outside, then try to put on cleaner’s uniforms, enter the underground parking lot, and leave the airport through there.”
The police were primarily investigating the travelers; if they could disguise themselves as staff, it would undoubtedly reduce the chances of being discovered.
It was a makeshift solution at best.
Without a better alternative, everyone started to consider the feasibility of the idea Li Jinwen had suggested.
