"Why did you little brat come to my place suddenly? If the front desk staff hadn't retrieved the company's database and knew that you were my brother, you might not even be able to get in through the gate!"
In the reception room on the top floor, Xu Wanxue was sitting on the soft sofa, leaning forward slightly with an angry look in her eyes. She looked at the young man sitting opposite with reproach, and her tone contained helplessness.
Lin Mo's expression was calm and did not change much because of Xu Wanxue's scolding. If it were before, he might have lowered his head and become more humble in order to beg Xu Wanxue's forgiveness.
But now, he didn't feel that way at all.
Now that he could see Xu Wanxue sitting in front of him safe and sound, the big stone hanging in his heart had finally fallen away.
However, the crisis has not been resolved yet, and he has no idea of chatting with Xu Wanxue.
"Didn't I say that on the phone before? I said I would come to your company tomorrow, and you agreed." Lin Mo spread his hands and replied innocently.
The corners of Xu Wanxue's mouth twitched, and she wanted to continue to refute, but in the end she couldn't think of anything to say to refute Lin Mo.
Because it was indeed after 24 o'clock, and Lin Mo arrived at the company in time.
Although it was a hundred million too early, he did keep his promise.
This kid is always playing tricks on these things... Xu Wanxue muttered dissatisfiedly in her heart.
"Tell me, you came here in such a hurry. Do you have something to tell your sister?"
Xu Wanxue crossed her hands on her lower abdomen and leaned back on the sofa, trying to maintain her dignity as a sister as much as possible.
Lin Mo looked at her with a faint look, and said expressionlessly as if he was stating a fact:
"You're going to die, sister."
He wanted to use this to raise Xu Wanxue's vigilance and listen carefully to his story.
As soon as the words fell, the air froze for an instant, and fell into a strange silence. The corners of Xu Wanxue's eyes twitched slightly, looking at her brother in disbelief.
Immediately, she grabbed the pillow on the sofa, threw it at Lin Mo mercilessly, and said in a slightly aggrieved tone:
"You stinky brat, you actually dare to curse your sister. I raised you so big in vain!"
Lin Mo calmly took the pillow and faced Xu Wanxue's pretended aggrieved expression. Even if he had the best self-cultivation, his skills would inevitably be broken at this time, and his expression gradually became helpless.
"Sister, I won't waste my time. In fact, I..."
"Actually, you studied under a certain old beggar and learned a certain fortune-telling method from him. You can predict some parts of the future in advance, right?"
Before Lin Mo could explain, Xu Wanxue suddenly interrupted Lin Mo's story with a sweet smile, as if she had known he would say this.
Sure enough, Lin Mo was stunned for a moment, his eyes were slightly dull, as if he was asking "how did you know?"
Xu Wanxue smiled and said confidently:
"You, you have only used this excuse for so many years. Do you really think I am a fool and can be easily deceived? Although I did know that you had a lot of abilities at a young age when I picked you up, but no matter what, you are still mine. My brother, how can I not believe what you say?"
Lin Mo was silent.
He didn't expect that he would not even utter a single explanation tonight, but Xu Wanxue unexpectedly told him not to explain too much.
"Tell me, tomorrow... no, how will I die today?"
Xu Wanxue picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip indifferently, as if she was not worried about her life or death at all.
Lin Mo pondered for a long time and finally told some of the information he got from the simulator, but he also concealed the existence of the simulator.
Xu Wanxue was silent for a long time, just observing Lin Mo's expression silently. After a long time, a faint smile appeared on her lips, her elbows rested on the "armrest" of the sofa, her chin was propped up, and she asked without any anxiety:
"Then, my dear brother, how are you going to save your sister? As long as you keep me from leaving the company's door, will I be safe?"
Lin Mo said helplessly:
"Sister, don't pretend to be stupid. Do you even need to think about it? If there is a problem with the aerial vehicle, it must be because there is an insider within your company. Secondly, after the aerial vehicle crashes, there is an assassination team on standby in the dark. , indicating that you are definitely being targeted, and if you want to completely solve this matter, you must start from the source."
He suddenly had the feeling that "the emperor is not anxious but the eunuch is anxious". This is all about your life, so why are you not anxious at all, aunt?
Xu Wanxue suppressed her smile and sighed silently:
"This is not to pretend to be stupid, but it is not difficult for me to deal with this matter. The advantage of the assassins involved in this operation is that they are in the dark. Since we have known about this matter in advance, then I am sure You can ask the company's operations department to step in and find out the traitor, and then lure the snake out of the hole and find the assassins one after another."
"As for the person behind the scenes, there is no other way. Judging from your description, the person behind the scenes is most likely not from within our company. Compared with the competitive relationship between colleagues within other companies, Kangtao Company has more It is relatively harmonious. With my current way of doing things, it is difficult to find such a colleague within the company who meets all the conditions."
"So, the masterminds behind the scenes are probably people from other companies. As for which company it is, it depends on how much information can be obtained from the traitor."
Following Xu Wanxue's analysis, Lin Mo couldn't help but nod in agreement.
Generally speaking, Xu Wanxue's arrangement is not without fault.
It's just that in an incident like this, once it is found that the person behind the scenes is someone from another company, then even if it has conclusive evidence, that company will probably just find a scapegoat to get rid of the problem.
Therefore, Xu Wanxue does not insist on punishing the real mastermind behind the scenes.
This is not realistic.
"Compared to this, I'm still very happy that you care about your sister so much. It means your love for you is not in vain."
Xu Wanxue changed her tone, walked up to Lin Mo with a bright smile, and ruffled his hair fiercely.
Lin Mo looked slightly distressed, but did not resist.
"In the next few days, you'd better not go to school. If someone really targets me, you will be at some risk. Stay at home or stay at the company, and I will protect you." Xu Wanxue warned.
"Sister, actually I have one more thing to tell you."
Lin Mo took a deep breath, seemed to have made some kind of decision, and broke free from Xu Wanxue's restraints with a little force.
"What's the matter?" Xu Wanxue asked.
"I hope you can leave this matter to me and let me solve it myself." Lin Mo said calmly:
"I will find out the person behind it and give him a decent death."
If it weren't for the simulator's early warning, no one would know about it in advance except the mastermind behind the scenes.
Accidents are a specialty of Night City, and even Saburo Arasaka will die due to accidents someday in the future.
With the help of the simulator, he can avoid accidents, but he must also solve these accidents!
Xu Wanxue was slightly startled, smiled, and replied angrily:
"Although I'm happy that you have such a heart, sister, it's better to leave these matters to professionals."
Lin Mo's face was calm:
"Sister, have you seen the news a few days ago? The Arasaka seaside area was attacked by an unknown gang."
"Have seen it, what's wrong..." Xu Wanxue was slightly startled, and then seemed to realize something, her eyes widened slightly.
"That's what I did."
Xu Wanxue was shocked and looked Lin Mo up and down, trying to find any signs of bragging.
However, even though she subconsciously didn't want to believe it, Lin Mo's calm expression made her feel that the other party was definitely not lying.
"Sister, I think we can get to know each other again. Your brother and I are actually a peerless genius..." Lin Mo said indifferently.
Now, it's time to confess everything to Xu Wanxue, such as what he has done these days, the wealth he has accumulated over the years, etc.
