AWAKENING THE DAILY INTELLIGENCE SYSTEM

Chapter 530: 205, Lin Mo’s first life-saving measure!_1

Oh?

Upon hearing that Lin Mo had appeared again, Wu Jingguo thought it was another world-shaking incident he had caused abroad, but before he could react, he heard that Lin Mo had actually surrendered himself?

And the place of his surrender was a police station in Rakshasa City.

What was this kid up to?

Wu Jingguo hung up the incoming call, and while his mind raced with thoughts, he found another number in his contacts and dialed it.

Beep… beep beep….

…

After a full thirty-four seconds, the phone was picked up again.

A robust and forceful voice of an elder came from the other end of the line, “Elder Wu, you have time to call me today?”

“What can I do for you?”

From the tone of the conversation, it was clear that the two knew each other, but their relationship was not exactly harmonious—it even felt somewhat confrontational.

Wu Jingguo wasn’t surprised by his tone and said with a smile, “Elder Wang, it’s been a while. I’ve been busy on my end and haven’t had the chance to pay a visit, which must have seemed rude of me.”

Hmm?

The elder called Elder Wang frowned slightly, clearly not expecting Wu Jingguo to be so courteous.

Honestly, although Elder Wang was also a big figure in Demon Capital, he still fell short of Chen Shanhe, not to mention Wu Jingguo, whose status and influence were even greater.

He was indeed very special.

Although he didn’t have the backing of a powerful family, it was precisely because he stood alone that he became a trusted middleman for all the major powers.

Even though Rakshasa City had experienced countless ups and downs in its turbulent political waters, in the end, he was the one who had the last laugh.

Though he had yet to ascend to high office, when it came to the military and police forces of Rakshasa City, he could certainly be regarded as the foremost authority.

After a few seconds of silence, Elder Wang spoke up, “You flatter me, Elder Wu. If you have something to say, just say it.”

“But I must remind you, Chen Shanhe has fallen, and many want to be the next Chen Shanhe. If it’s related to such matters, I’m afraid I can’t be of any help.”

“In your eyes, I’m just a minor character. I don’t have many burdens and just want to live out my old age in peace.”

Though he said this, being an outsider trusted by several major families, he naturally had his own unique abilities.

“Elder Wang, you’re always straightforward, so if I beat around the bush, it would seem that I don’t know how to behave properly,” Wu Jingguo stated his request very directly, “I’ve heard that Lin Mo has surrendered. I want to see his condition inside and every word he has said.”

“Don’t misunderstand, Elder Wang, I’m simply interested in this young man,” he added.

Normally, this would certainly not be allowed, as such an operation would definitely be against the rules.

If it had been anyone else, Elder Wang would have directly refused such an unreasonable request, but the person in question was Wu Jingguo, a key figure in control of the entire Wu family.

If he was truly determined to see it, the means at his disposal were very, very numerous.

Even without the police surveillance videos, Wu Jingguo had deep connections in other departments, especially with the prosecution and the courts.

Although the police, prosecution, and courts may seem to be on the same level, anyone who has worked within the system knows that their relationships aren’t as harmonious as they appear, and among these three institutions, ‘police’ can be considered the least authoritative.

The latter two can be seen as superiors on a practical level.

If they wanted to observe every move in the interrogation room, even Elder Wang had no power to stop them.

The fact that Wu Jingguo made this call was, in fact, giving him face.

Elder Wang was astute and fully aware that in the political intrigue, there were no deep and mortal feuds, nor were there many atrociously evil criminals—much of it was simply infighting within their class.

Elder Wang would not miss out on doing a good deed when it was called for.

After pondering for a long time, he said, “Alright, since you’ve asked, I must give you this courtesy.”

“Besides, if there are issues with resolving problems with prisoners, consulting the former authoritative judge of Rakshasa is also allowed within the procedure.”

“However, I must remind you, Elder Wu, that the special task force from Imperial Capital is already on their way, and this time it’s a big deal. The people coming are not ordinary,” Elder Wang warned.

“If you’re not prepared, I suggest you not get involved in this mess. And don’t forget the lesson from Chen Shanhe’s downfall.”

This advice was well spoken, giving Wu Jingguo both due respect and a firm caution, indicating where the red line was.

Elder Wang knew the extent of Wu Jingguo’s capabilities and also that his words likely would not have any effect.

If Wu Jingguo were determined to watch with others, there was no good way for Elder Wang to refuse.

However, there were still things that had to be said, and after saying them, it was up to the person concerned to follow his advice or not.

Everyone was of an age, and holding positions of power, so they were all very measured in their speech and actions.

“Then I thank you, Elder Wang,” Wu Jingguo said without further pleasantries, adding as he hung up the phone, “Once this matter is over, I do hope you will make time to visit my home.”

Soon, the video feed from the police station came through.

Seated on the sofa, Wu Jingguo watched with great interest on the large TV screen, observing Lin Mo who looked thinner than earlier this year, and who spoke with an entirely different mannerism and spirit compared to a few years ago.
