Chapter 68: A Dream of a Year?
Liu Yiyi stared at the henchman.
"How much does the underground casino you mentioned have a monthly turnover?"
Who is in charge of the accounts? Who do they have financial dealings with? Where exactly are they located?
A barrage of questions completely baffled the henchman.
Lin Mo watched from the side and couldn't help but laugh.
Good guy.
Is Third Sister-in-law having a professional lapse?
They turned the Black Tiger Gang interrogation into a business due diligence investigation.
"Third Sister-in-law, your professional skills are impressive."
Lin Mo leaned close to her ear and whispered something.
"Let's start a company together in the future, and call it 'Yimo Advanced Threat and Consulting Co., Ltd.'"
"We specialize in all kinds of shady dealings and guarantee a listing within three years."
Liu Yiyi blushed.
Although she couldn't understand the nonsense Lin Mo was saying, she knew he was teasing her.
Liu Yiyi rolled her eyes at him, annoyed, and said reproachfully:
"What time is it? Stop being so sarcastic."
He said that, but the heavy weight that had been hanging over him because of the killing inexplicably lifted from his heart.
With this guy around, it seems like no matter how big the problem is, it's not a problem.
Just as the two were "cooperating in the interrogation," almost completely exposing the Black Tiger Gang's dirty secrets.
"Get out of the way!"
A tall figure dressed in a fiery red outfit walked in, accompanied by thirty imposing elite guards.
The person who arrived was Qin Ruxue.
Her once spirited and beautiful face was now filled with anxiety.
Only after seeing that Lin Mo and Liu Yiyi were safe and sound did he breathe a heavy sigh of relief.
"Are you all alright?"
Qin Ruxue rushed over and looked the two of them up and down.
"Second sister, we're alright."
Liu Yiyi quickly went to greet her.
Qin Ruxue was relieved, but when she saw the dozen or so Black Tiger Gang members in the corner, their limbs broken and twitching like broken dolls, she was surprised.
"This...you did this?"
Qin Ruxue looked at Lin Mo in disbelief.
Lin Mo nodded.
Qin Ruxue's chest heaved as she forcefully suppressed the turmoil in her heart.
Even though she was used to the battles of the martial world, she had never seen such ruthless methods.
Liu Yiyi tugged at Qin Ruxue's sleeve, her voice very soft:
"Second sister, let's go inside and talk."
The three entered the pavilion.
Without wasting any words, Lin Mo spilled out all the information he had just extracted from the henchmen, like beans pouring from a bamboo tube.
"...That's the situation."
"That old dog Chen Wanjin will definitely not let this go. Rather than waiting for him to make a move, we might as well overturn his table first."
"My plan is to take the initiative."
"The target is not the Chen family mansion, but two secret warehouses he hid in a dilapidated temple and a dock in the west of the city."
"No matter what schemes or tricks he has up his sleeve, let's cause some trouble for him first and see how he plays his part."
Upon hearing this, Qin Ruxue raised her heroic eyebrows, her eyes blazing with fighting spirit.
"Alright! I'll take some men and raid those two warehouses right away!"
"Wait a moment."
Liu Yiyi, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke.
"And that underground casino."
"The casino was originally a business of the Red Phoenix Hall. He dared to open it at the risk of conflict with the Red Phoenix Hall, so it must be something special."
She looked at the two of them, her red lips slightly parted.
"Strike the snake at its vital point, cause trouble thoroughly, raid the warehouse, and I think we should smash up the casino too."
Lin Mochong and Liu Yiyi gave each other a thumbs up.
Qin Ruxue nodded and looked at Lin Mo:
"Alright! I'll take one team to those two warehouses, and you take one team to the casino. We'll split up."
"No."
Lin Mo shook his head.
"Take everyone to the warehouse, and make as much noise as possible."
"I'll go to the casino alone."
"What?"
Qin Ruxue and Liu Yiyi spoke in unison.
They thought they had misheard.
"Alone? Are you crazy?"
Qin Ruxue's eyebrows shot up.
"That casino must be something special. You're going alone? It's too dangerous!"
"Won't."
Lin Mo looked at Qin Ruxue.
"The men you bring are elite, but they're too conspicuous and easily spotted. As for me, one person is the best disguise."
He paused, then patiently explained:
"I'm alone, my target is small, and I can move forward or backward freely."
"At my speed, carrying others would only be a burden."
Qin Ruxue wanted to say something, but Lin Mo interrupted her.
"Listen to me."
His expression turned serious.
"Listen carefully, no matter what the situation is on your side, whether you succeed or not, you must bring your men back to Dingbei Prefecture before dark."
"As long as there are no problems in Dingbei Prefecture, I can go all out and get things done."
After listening to Lin Mo's words,
Qin Ruxue fell silent.
She realized that she could no longer see through him.
This guy, who usually just cracks jokes, always manages to show amazing strategic vision and decisiveness at crucial moments.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Qin Ruxue finally nodded, but still gave some words of advice out of concern.
"Be careful in everything you do."
Don't worry.
Lin Mo patted his chest.
Suddenly, he remembered something and whispered a few words in Qin Ruxue's ear.
Qin Ruxue looked at him with suspicion.
"Is this necessary?"
Yes, very much so.
Lin Mo nodded.
"OK."
Qin Ruxue agreed.
Everything is arranged properly.
Liu Yiyi immediately instructed Manager Wang to dismiss all the workers, promising to pay them their wages as usual and telling them to go home and wait for news.
In an instant, the once bustling construction site was deserted.
Qin Ruxue, accompanied by her guards, sped off towards the west of the city like a raging fire.
Lin Mo, however, insisted on first ensuring Liu Yiyi's safe return to Dingbei Prefecture.
……
The carriage moved slowly, with only Lin Mo and Liu Yiyi inside.
The atmosphere became subtle again.
Unlike before, this time Liu Yiyi didn't look out the window.
Instead, she stared intently at Lin Mo with a complex gaze that was inquisitive, curious, and tinged with worry.
Lin Mo felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze and touched his nose.
"Third Sister-in-law, is there something on my face?"
Liu Yiyi ignored his joke and remained silent for a long time, seemingly organizing her thoughts.
The creaking of the carriage wheels and the sound of horses' hooves became the only background noise.
Finally, Liu Yiyi bit her lower lip and softly asked the question that had lingered in her mind for so long.
"Xiao Shi, who...who are you?"
Why did you suddenly become so amazing?
"And those assembly lines and crystallization towers you mentioned, I've never heard of them before."
"What... happened to you?"
She's not stupid; it's impossible for someone to undergo such a dramatic transformation in such a short time.
The Lin Mo of the past was not bad, but he was definitely not the decisive and resourceful person he is now.
This can no longer be explained by a simple "enlightenment".
Facing Liu Yiyi's clear eyes, which seemed to see right through people, Lin Mo knew that a simple evasion wouldn't work.
He remained silent for a long time.
Just when Liu Yiyi thought he wouldn't answer, Lin Mo slowly spoke.
"Third Sister-in-law, if I told you... I had a very, very long dream, would you believe me?"
"Dream?"
Liu Yiyi frowned slightly.
"Yes, a very real dream."
Lin Mo leaned against the carriage wall, his eyes somewhat dazed.
"In my dream, I went to another world."
"That world has no martial arts, no internal energy, but it has something even more terrifying than martial arts."
"There are flying iron birds, iron boxes that can travel a thousand miles a day, and 'cell phones' that can talk to people a thousand miles away..."
Lin Mo described his past life experiences as a bizarre and fantastical dream.
He talked about skyscrapers, the internet, assembly line factories, and scientific knowledge.
"In that dream, I lived for a very long time, learned a lot of knowledge, and also witnessed a lot of the coldness and warmth of human relationships."
"Until one day, I woke up from my dream, and that's how I ended up like this."
Lin Mo shrugged and said, half-jokingly.
He certainly couldn't say that he had traveled from another time, so he could only explain it with the phrase "a dream of a thousand years".
Liu Yiyi listened quietly without interrupting him.
On her delicate and pretty face, there was no shock or disbelief that Lin Mo had expected.
She simply looked at him quietly, her watery eyes seeming to see right through him.
After a long while, Liu Yiyi finally spoke softly.
"Is that world... fun?"
Lin Mo was taken aback for a moment, then smiled.
"It's alright, but the pace is too fast and the pressure is too much. It's not as comfortable as here."
"So... will you go back?"
As Liu Yiyi asked the question, her heart involuntarily clenched.
Lin Mo smiled and shook his head.
"I'm not going back."
"Why go back? To deliver food? Or work 996? It's not as good as here. There's plenty of food and drink, and a pretty wife to look at."
Liu Yiyi rolled her eyes at him.
This guy.
He can't stop flirting in every other sentence.
But somehow, her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, quietly settled down.
[Liu Yiyi's intimacy level +5]
