Chapter 237: 128, Chen Shanhe personally leads the team, secretly surrounds Zhangzhuang Village! _6

The streets outside were deserted, extremely quiet, yet most of the houses had their lights on, a custom they called staying up late on New Year’s Eve, and from time to time, one could hear the sounds of drinking and card playing from inside the houses.

Lin Mo advanced alone, his body blending into the night, in stark contrast to the myriad lights behind him.

Because he had to avoid surveillance, he had to be very careful in choosing his route.

Once Chen Shanhe entered the village and couldn’t find him, he would definitely investigate the surveillance in the village, the town, and even the entire city, so Lin Mo had to be cautious!

His current new identity could not leave any clues behind, otherwise, all the efforts he was about to make would come to naught.

Because any hint could potentially be discovered by Chen Shanhe!

As Lin Mo was avoiding surveillance on his way to the train station, he also carefully recorded the locations and numbers of the surveillance cameras he passed with pen and paper.

This was also key to the next step in his plan.

…

The next day, early morning.

Lin Mo arrived in Yuhang City by train.

Though it was the first day of the new year, the train station was bustling with activity.

This was largely related to the policy of not having a New Year’s Eve holiday this year.

Of course, for Lin Mo, this was good news.

With so many people around, even if he accidentally left a hint, it would be obscured by the crowd.

Lin Mo’s overnight trip to Yuhang was not to find Zhang Yihua, but to rent a car; he needed to select a suitable business vehicle and then sneak his family away to start their lives anew somewhere else without anyone noticing!

Indeed, Lin Mo could have rented a car locally, but he knew how powerful Chen Shanhe was. Leaving even the slightest clue could lead Chen Shanhe right back to his family.

So after much deliberation, Lin Mo decided to rent a car from out of town.

Better safe than sorry!

Life comes but once, he cannot afford to make any mistakes!

This time, Lin Mo did not choose Shenzhou or any of the other large rental car platforms, but went to some privately-owned rental car businesses near the used car wholesale market instead.

Private rental car businesses generally have more pitfalls and are prone to various disputes, so Lin Mo would not usually consider them.

But now the situation was different,

He was not afraid of being overcharged by the rental company, what he feared was that if his identity leaked, Chen Shanhe would instantly learn of his whereabouts.

This was like playing a game of cat and mouse, the mouse has a chance to win, but only if it is not discovered.

The private nature of privately-owned rental businesses provided better secrecy than those through software.

The rental process went smoothly,

In less than half an hour, Lin Mo had completed the rental payment, registered information with his new identity, and got a long-term rented GL8 business vehicle.

He chose this model because it was the most common and inconspicuous on the roads.

On the way to Yuhang, Lin Mo had thought about getting a car with fake plates or directly buying a “backdoor” car that didn’t require transfer of ownership to pick up his family.

But upon reflection, it seemed a bit ill-advised, like being too clever by half.

His new identity was absolutely secure; there was no need to tarnish it with unnecessary complications.

Such blemishes could very well become clues in Chen Shanhe’s future investigations.

After getting the car, Lin Mo did not delay. He bought many new mobile phones using his new identity.

These were for his family,

However, Lin Mo didn’t buy SIM cards.

Even though he knew that it was possible to obtain many unregistered SIM cards despite the strict real-name system, he still refrained from purchasing them.

In this regard, Lin Mo had more faith in the deep web, although it was much more expensive, but at least so far, the deep web provided by the Intelligence System hadn’t had any issues.

Withstanding scrutiny was the key!

After completing all this, Lin Mo drove straight onto the highway, heading back to his hometown!

That very day, Lin Mo arrived near Zhangzhuang Village and parked his car in a concealed spot in the wilderness where there were no surveillance cameras, then waited in silence.

He couldn’t go home right away,

Although he could avoid all the surveillance, let’s not forget that it was the first day of the new year, and there were many villagers around.

His home was now the focus of the entire village.

So even if he returned to the village with a new identity and nobody greeted him, the chances were high that people would notice a stranger had gone to his house.

This might not seem significant now, but once Chen Shanhe arrived, such details could lead him to deduce Lin Mo’s new identity.

The adversary was an extremely clever old fox, with a very professional top-tier team; every move had to be made with care!

One had to remain vigilant, even if it meant battling wits with the air itself!

Lin Mo stayed in the car until nearly dawn and then tightened the clothes around him, opened the car door, and silently got out.

He had previously recorded the locations and numbers of all the surveillance cameras around the village, and now, relying on his visual observations and checking, he was able to perfectly avoid all cameras.

Thankfully, he was in a village where there were fewer cameras to begin with.

If this were in a big city like Rakshasa City, avoiding surveillance would have been a tremendous challenge in itself.

Moving forward with extreme caution, and after nearly two hours, Lin Mo finally returned to his own front door without incident.

“Phew…”

Lin Mo didn’t make a call but stood at the door, gently knocking.

There were no cameras that could capture this side of his house, so there was no need to worry.
