AWAKENING THE DAILY INTELLIGENCE SYSTEM

Chapter 605: 241, the debt owed to family!_2 Chapter 605: 241, the debt owed to family!_2 The car was started and sped forward at the maximum speed allowed by the road regulations.

It was now evening, and the lanterns hanging from the streetlights on both sides of the road had lit up, outlining the full feeling of the New Year.

In the sky, dazzling fireworks burst forth occasionally, and even the ordinary citizens walking by the roadside had smiles on their faces.

It must be said that Grand Xia had developed very well over the past few years; even the small county town where Lin Mo and his company were based was extremely lively, teeming with people.

Looking at the familiar streets outside, Lin Mo couldn’t help but feel a mix of emotions.

When he was abroad, Lin Mo had spent most of his days thinking about how to deal with Chen Shanhe, or trying to obtain important intelligence and documents from various countries, he was so busy that he barely had time to eat.

Back then, he had put in so much effort, influenced not only by the desire to survive but also by something very important: the desire to do whatever it took to return to Grand Xia with his family and live the life of an ordinary person.

…

In the truest sense, as soon as Lin Mo sat on the soft sofa of the Coaster and gazed out of the window, his second dream could be considered fulfilled.

“Sigh…”

“The journey here really wasn’t easy!”

Lin Mo softly exhaled, suppressing the mix of feelings and excitement in his heart, and slowly closed his eyes, imagining the scene of arriving home later.

Seeing that he had no intention of speaking, the various leaders in the car were very discerning and didn’t disturb Lin Mo, letting him rest peacefully.

….

Meanwhile, at another location.

Zhangzhuang.

This village wasn’t very large to begin with, and the village head had been very aware of potential crises from the start, so the design of the village was very professional, with only three or four places to leave the village.

The roads in the other places weren’t passable, and trying to find a spot to get out was very dangerous.

At this moment, Zhangzhuang was once again bustling with its annual festive spirit.

Banners with various blessings hung along the village roads, and many people, having finished their meals at home and with nothing particular to do, simply did as they did in previous years and found a crowded spot in the village to chat.

It was only during this time that villagers who worked outside for the year had the opportunity to gather together.

Of course, where there was chatting, there was also gambling.

Despite the government’s daily efforts to discourage it, especially during holidays when public officials would patrol and inspect villages, the allure of gambling was hard to shake off once one developed a liking for it.

The gamblers would come up with all kinds of ways to evade police checks, sometimes even setting up the gambling scenes inside business vehicles to increase the difficulty of law enforcement.

In the village committee courtyard.

After receiving notices from their superiors, they too had hurriedly left their homes to return to work.

All they knew was that a very accomplished scientific researcher was coming home for the New Year; exactly who that was, and what great achievements they had, were details that remained unclear to them.

A staff member stretched and complained with some dissatisfaction, “The person the higher-ups mentioned, why haven’t they arrived yet?”

“Mr.

Mayor, can’t you give us a hint about who is so honored to visit?”

Another person chimed in, “Yeah, Mr.

Mayor, I get the feeling that the new teacher has quite a temper, and although it doesn’t seem too problematic at the moment, it’s bound to become more annoying once he starts teaching.”

“Could it be Mayor Xia coming over?”

“I don’t think it’s Mayor Xia, I heard from my son that he was called to the military airport this afternoon.

Seems like some big shot is visiting East Sea City, with all the city leaders and military high command going there.”

“Then who could it be?”

“With all the time you have for guessing, why not go up and ask?”

“Do you think it’s possible that it’s Lin Mo who’s returning?”

Lin Mo?

At the mention of this exceedingly common name, the brows of everyone present involuntarily furrowed.

Fortunately, their wait wasn’t too long; about two hours later, the Coaster minibus Lin Mo was riding in came to a halt.

There were a lot of people idly strolling around in the village, and upon seeing the car with the plate number East 00001 drive in, a buzz of conversation started among them.

After all, even those completely unfamiliar with the political arena could imagine that the user of such a license plate must be a high-ranking leader in East Sea City, possibly even Mayor Xia himself.

With this thought in mind, more and more villagers gathered, passing information to each other, all wanting to see which house the emergency vehicle would stop in front of first.

“Whose family had the accident?”

“I bet it’s Old Wang.

I feel like he’s the only one in our village with that kind of clout.”

“I still think it could be Lin Mo.”

“Heh…

I won’t deny Lin Mo is wealthy, but his family has already returned to the country, and they haven’t shown any particularly strong capabilities; instead, they’ve been very cooperative with our work.”

“If Lin Mo wanted to come, he definitely would have come by now, not waited until the last minute.”

“Heh, I never thought there was a chance of that family returning to the village.”

“Stop the gossip, they’re getting out.”

….

Meanwhile, at Lin Mo’s house.

Today is New Year’s Eve, a time for family reunions, and many people have come to Lin Mo’s house.

Some are there to ask Lin Mo for favors, others just to enjoy the air conditioning for a while.

At this moment,

the family is all working together to make dumplings, creating a very heartwarming scene.

But a careful observer would notice that although everyone in the room seemed relaxed, they were, in fact, extremely anxious.

They had spent this time trying to get news of Lin Mo through various channels, but all attempts were like stones sunk in the sea, with no contact from Lin Mo at all.

Xu Qin finally couldn’t hold back any longer, tears unconsciously streaming down her face as she held a dumpling in her hand.

Lin Siyu, of course, knew what her mother was thinking and quickly reassured her, “Mom, my brother will be fine.

Don’t worry, he’ll be back after the New Year’s.”

Heh.

No one present believed such a statement.

Xu Qin shook her head and said, “Child, don’t lie to me.

If we knew your brother was coming back to surrender, I would never allow him to return to the country no matter what.”

“It’s all our fault!”

Once she finished her words, the air was filled with a much sadder atmosphere, and many quietly wiped away tears.

Especially Lin Mo’s son and daughter.

They were still young, at an age when they needed meaningful conversations and exchanges.

Having not seen their father for over a month, they naturally felt very depressed.

Especially since the children couldn’t control their emotions well, so they soon started crying.

Li Jinwen’s heart was also heavy, but she knew she had to stay strong for the sake of the elders in the family and could not appear too sad.

Otherwise, everyone might lose the spirit to celebrate this New Year.

Anger was certainly mounting.

Li Jinwen lifted up her son and wrapped an arm around Lin Xiaoxiao, saying earnestly, “I know you both miss Daddy a lot.

To tell you the truth, Mommy misses him too, and Daddy must be missing you right now.”

“But remember, Daddy is out there fighting little monsters to protect us.

Do you support Daddy or not?”

Lin Xiaoxiao nodded vigorously.

Lin Xi might not have fully grasped the situation, but he was obedient and, comforted by his mother, soon began to smile.

That’s how children are—quick to change their moods, faster than flipping a page in a book.

“Ah…”

Li Jinshan sighed and said, “All right, let’s not talk about this anymore.

The situation hasn’t reached its most dangerous point, our son is out there protecting us.”

“Let’s focus on making dumplings, have a reunion dinner together, and wait for next year’s…”

Before he could finish, the tightly closed door was suddenly pushed open, and a person they knew all too well reappeared in front of everyone!
