Awakening the Daily Intelligence System

Chapter 197: 123, teasing Chen Shanhe! Refresh to reveal a bizarre new piece of information!_8

And that was exactly the effect Lin Mo was aiming for.

To infuriate the other party!

To prevent them from thinking calmly!

Watching Chen Shanhe seemingly become increasingly agitated, Lin Mo continued, “It seems Elder Mr. Chen has no intention of clearing his son of all his sins. In that case, there seems to be nothing left for us to discuss.”

“You might as well use all your power to investigate, and try, just try, to find a flaw in our Abyss Organization.”

“Heh heh…”

“However, even if you don’t care about Chen Kainan’s life or death, you wouldn’t want an enigmatic power lurking in the shadows, out of sight, watching you, would you?”

Chen Shanhe did not speak.

Lin Mo went on, “Your son has committed a multitude of sins. I’m sure you’re more aware of this than I am. The Kundahua Mansion refund incident has only… cleaned up 5% of your son’s wickedness.”

“To release your son, there’s still a very long way to go.”

“Nevertheless, the Abyss Organization never likes to force anyone. I’ll give you 24 hours to consider. If you refuse to continue cleansing your son’s sins, then every day from now on, you’ll receive a delivery.”

“A delivery about your son.”

With that said,

Lin Mo hung up the video call in the app without waiting for Chen Shanhe to respond.

In fact, Lin Mo was well aware,

that even though he held the initiative, it was difficult to gain any advantage in a conversation with Chen Shanhe.

The old guy was too shrewd, too cunning.

Dealing with such an old fox had to be concise.

One careless move and you could fall into their trap,

or they could extract clues from you.

Moreover, Lin Mo’s main goal was to confound their investigation, so he wasn’t in a hurry, throwing out one choice after another and then just letting it hang.

If Chen Shanhe didn’t contact him within 24 hours it wouldn’t matter.

Lin Mo only needed to release another piece of the information he held.

And Lin Mo believed,

that at this level of intensity, Chen Shanhe would surely not let things slide!

If it were him being blackmailed and monitored by a mysterious organization, he would certainly not ignore it!

He would definitely choose to make more contact in the hopes of finding clues!

After turning off the phone,

Lin Mo, who had rested enough, returned to the basement and turned off the small industrial blow dryer that had been running for several minutes.

Then,

he lowered a burning candle to measure the depth at the same time.

After some trials and ensuring there were no issues, Lin Mo strapped a safety harness around his waist and entered the ancient well with a backpack filled with various items, descending bit by bit.

Gloomy, damp, cold, slippery…

These sensations reminded Lin Mo of the time when he first activated his system and went down into a sewage well to save a dog.

But it was only somewhat similar.

When saving the dog, it was just a shallow sewage well.

But here, there was the unknown!

Lin Mo had no idea what might be lurking in the pitch-black corners that the headlamp couldn’t illuminate.

After some effort, Lin Mo finally made it to the bottom of the well.

The space at the bottom of the well was quite large, like a room.

Setting foot at the bottom, the soft, damp sensation under his feet and the pervasive foul smell in the air made Lin Mo’s face involuntarily take on a grimace.

Finding the treasure was paramount!

Lin Mo, enduring the foul odor, hurriedly searched around at the bottom of the well, but…

he found nothing.

“Hmm? What’s going on?”

“No way… Could this not be the treasure location mentioned by the system?”

“More than one ancient well?”

This feeling of initial excitement followed by disappointment involuntaryy made Lin Mo frown.

“Search again!”

Carefully, Lin Mo made another thorough search around the well’s bottom, which wasn’t very large, about 20 square meters. The floor had been somewhat reinforced and even had tiles laid on it, but they were covered with a layer of dirt, not looking like a discarded old well.

But no matter how he searched, he couldn’t find any trace of the treasure.

Not to mention a cache,

there wasn’t even a single piece!

The imagined treasure chests did not appear!

The most valuable thing Lin Mo figured was probably these somewhat aged floor tiles on the ground.

“Could it be further down? Do I need to keep digging?”

“Damn it!”

Having no other choice, Lin Mo went back to the surface to get a manual pickaxe, returned to the bottom of the well, and tried prying up a few floor tiles.

Underneath the tiles was a compacted layer of earth, similar to a foundation.

It was hard, difficult to penetrate!

Hmm?

Lin Mo suddenly realized something.

He looked up and estimated he was about 20 meters below the basement.

In a place this deep, was there a need for a foundation?

Besides,

this wasn’t a place to build a house…

Wait,

to build a house?

Lin Mo suddenly thought that it wasn’t just for house building that required a foundation; there was another place that also needed one.

That is… a grave!

With this possibility in mind, Lin Mo’s brows furrowed deeper.

Could it be that the treasure mentioned by the system was hidden in a tomb?

Wouldn’t that make him a grave robber?

That’s illegal!

Lin Mo instinctively didn’t want to break the law, but then he thought, had he not committed enough illegal deeds these past days?

Even though many of them were against his will, out of coercion,

but still…

A judge wouldn’t listen to his explanation.

And these enigmatic treasures truly intrigued Lin Mo, and he was eager to find out what exactly they were.

“It might not be a grave. I should look first and decide how to handle it once I’ve found them.”
