Awakening the Daily Intelligence System - Chapter 252
Chapter 252: 130, Chen Shanhe was furious when he saw the note left by Lin Mo!_3
“`
However, Song Xuyan’s attempt at suicide had solidified an idea in Hu Biao’s heart.
Yet another thought uncontrollably emerged in his mind,
what kind of high-ranking figure could make Song Xuyan prefer death over revealing even the slightest of his secrets?
How could a family of migrant workers possibly have such influence?
But now was not the time to think about these things!
Hu Biao grabbed Song Xuyan, who was determined to die, and pressed his thumbs against his temples, then began to exert force.
Song Xuyan’s body started to shake violently, and the blood vessels in his eyes quickly surfaced as he let out agonizing screams that echoed through the empty hospital.
After about twenty or thirty seconds, Song Xuyan had been tortured beyond recognition, finding it unbearable, experiencing a pain worse than death itself, and then he weakly and painfully said, “Biao… I’ll talk… I’ll tell everything…”
“It’s Lin Mo… It’s Lin Changshui’s son, Lin Mo…”
….
Several hours later.
Halfway up Qinglong Mountain, a mysterious villa complex.
The underground conference room.
Chen Shanhe sat in the chief seat of the conference room, listening with a somber face to reports from various departments.
Today is the second day of the Spring Festival.
In previous years, Chen Shanhe would have likely stayed at home for some quiet time, or visited some powerful figures with whom he normally had little interaction to maintain relationships.
But this year, it was not possible, given the emergence of the Abyss Organization, too many problems had arisen, too many unexpected incidents.
The disappearance of Chen Kainan was a minor issue; compensating tens of billions for the suspended construction area was no big deal, it was just a small loss of money.
What mattered was that the news of the price drop for the cancer treatment drug had gotten out, and many people were wondering what exactly Chen Shanhe was up to.
Moreover, this matter had also brought dissatisfaction from those two shareholders with dividends.
Although their money had been delivered in full, this series of events had greatly impacted Chen Shanhe’s reputation.
In their circles, it’s all about prestige; without it, an endless stream of troubles will arise.
Many would seize the opportunity to strike at you when you’re down!
The key point was that Chen Shanhe could not reveal that he was under threat from a mysterious organization, otherwise the wolves coveting the Chen Family’s territory would swarm in and tear him to shreds.
It’s like the real-world version of the dark forest law; each person like him, a powerful figure, is an armed hunter living in mutual suspicion.
There are no lasting friendships, only lasting interests.
Even at the very top, enemies abound!
When you are powerful, you are surrounded by friends; the moment you show weakness, all troubles come out!
Qiu Pengchi from the Dragon Group reported, “Elder Chen, last year our real estate business in Rakshasa City made a profit of about 44 billion. After deducting the 5.2 billion in compensation, we took in about 38.8 billion. Out of this money, 21% has to be handed over to….”
After finishing the report on business matters, Qiu Pengchi continued, “Regarding the investigation into the Abyss Organization, it has been continuously underway, but up to now, we still have not found any clues.”
“So far, the mystery of this organization has indeed exceeded our expectations.”
“Moreover, recently every side has been inquiring about our situation, just within my team alone, in the past 10 days we have identified 4 spies from other organizations; they all tried to indirectly figure out what exactly has happened to the Chen Family.”
For Chen Shanhe, losing some money wasn’t a big deal; money is just a number to him. However, the crux of the issue was that a mysterious force was coveting him, an extremely unpleasant sensation.
It felt like a guillotine was hanging over his head at all times!
After a few seconds of pause, Chen Shanhe spoke calmly and steadily, “Set aside business matters for now, let the other groups report; about the Abyss Organization, even speculation is permissible.”
“Compared to money, this organization is our real concern!”
As he finished, the four group leaders in attendance at the meeting and other department heads all fell silent.
They wished to report a breakthrough, but no matter how much they investigated, they simply couldn’t find any clues.
Breaking the IP was impossible, the voice could not be restored, and the Abyss Organization seemed to be non-existent, mysteriously appearing and just as mysteriously disappearing, without leaving a trace of any prior actions.
Or perhaps they had taken actions, but the traces were erased so cleanly that nothing could be discovered.
Seeing no one talking, Chen Shanhe couldn’t help but frown.
The Hive’s four powerful groups had always been successful, but this year they had all lost face in front of the Abyss Organization, which was not a good sign.
Buzz… buzz buzz…
It was at that moment that Chen Shanhe’s phone on the table began to vibrate.
He glanced at the caller ID; it was Hu Biao calling.
What did this guy want, calling him now?
Swiping across the screen, Chen Shanhe answered the phone.
Soon,
an excited voice came from the other end of the phone: “Elder Chen… Elder Chen… Are you listening?”
“I… I know who kidnapped Mr. Chen!!!”
What?
Upon hearing this, a look of amazement flashed through Chen Shanhe’s eyes.
He had not anticipated that, with none of the elite teams he had meticulously groomed producing any results, it would instead be a failure who found a clue?
Chen Shanhe found it hard to believe, but he knew that Hu Biao didn’t have the guts to play a joke on him. Since he had made the call, there must be at least some credible evidence.
Even the slightest useful lead was precious to them.
