Chapter 118 Opportunity Comes, Truth Comes Out!
After accepting Li's family banquet, Qin Mo sat back on the chair, basked in the sun and continued to absorb the sun's energy, his eyes slightly closed.
Although he stays at home, every place in the entire Security Bureau has been reflected in his mind.
Qin Mo followed Xia Song who had just moved in, observing his every move.
From the perspective of the holographic vision, Xia Song is clearly an S-level awakener, but the specific level is unknown.
However, Qin Mo guessed that he was at least the third level, otherwise it would be difficult to suppress him from the level of strength.
After all, the strength he is displaying on the surface is around the third level.
After Xia Song left Qin Mo's office, he directed the two subordinates he had brought to clean up the room directly opposite Qin Mo.
Obviously, he was further disgusting Qin Mo.
To be precise, it was to disgust the power behind Qin Mo, the Qingyang Li family.
Afterwards, Xia Song and his party began to wander around the security bureau, starting with the top floor, and went down layer by layer.
He took office as a new deputy director, and in the name of being familiar with the affairs first, he went through all the departments and announced his identity and status in a big way.
The vast majority of people in the bureau were taken aback.
They smelled something wrong from Xia Song's sudden arrival.
Qin Mo didn't take any action, he just watched Xia Song forcefully intervene in the affairs of various departments, and didn't choose to show his face.
This continued until five o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun was setting.
The familiar warm current surged in his body, Qin Mo retracted his gaze, focused on his eyes, and opened the Superman Gene Awakening panel.
Looking at the illusory line of small characters below, he slightly raised the corners of his mouth.
Light energy points: 34 (freely assignable)
As I said earlier, today’s weather is very good, and the accumulated light energy points hit a new high again.
The distribution plan is still the same as usual, first assign four points to each of the eight attributes to ensure balanced development.
He left the remaining two points to hearing and breathing respectively.
The huge warm current started from the chest and quickly spread to every corner of the body, injecting scorching energy into every cell, and comprehensively strengthening Qin Mo's strength.
"Breath: 157, Skill: Super Breath Enhancement."
The previous two skills of exhalation ice and hurricane were all incorporated into it after awakening the super breath, so the current strengthening actually did not miss those two skills.
Qin Mo's body once again gushed out a scorching warm current, enveloping his lungs.
After about two minutes, the warm current dissipated like a tide, and retreated to unknown depths in the body.
"Hoo..."
Qin Mo let out a long breath, and the temperature in the office suddenly dropped by three points, and fine ice crystals appeared on the nearby window glass.
Seeing this, the smile on the corner of Qin Mo's mouth became more intense.
Powerful breathing is also an extremely important means of attack for Superman. With his current strength, he should be able to directly freeze a second-level S-level awakened person to death.
Perhaps, even more powerful is still unknown.
"You can try it when you have time." Qin Mo thought to himself.
After that, he got up and tidied up the computer desk habitually, and walked out of the office.
When he reached the first floor of the Security Bureau, Li Yuan was already waiting for him.
The two followed each other to the underground parking lot, got into her expensive sports car, and drove all the way to Li's Manor.
About twenty minutes later, the engine was turned off, and the car slowly stopped at the gate of the manor.
"Marquis of Guannei, miss, the banquet has been prepared, and the master and madam have been waiting inside for a long time." The old butler said with a smile on his face.
Hearing this, Qin Mo nodded slightly to him, and entered the castle under his leadership.
It is not the first time for him to come here, and he is already very familiar with the layout of Li's Manor, and he knows how to get there without leading the way.
But since it is a night banquet, the proper etiquette must be thoughtful.
The upper-class people in society regard this kind of rules as very important. It seems that only in this way can they show their noble status, and it can be seen that there is a huge gap between them and ordinary people.
This is especially true for the five thousand-year-old families.
This evening banquet was eaten very quickly, and the atmosphere on the dinner table was also very harmonious, with laughter from time to time.
However, several people have their own concerns, and other colors are hidden in their eyes.
As soon as the banquet was over, Li Mou called Qin Mo to the study on the second floor.
In the study room, the two sat facing each other. The chessboard situation in front of them was intricate, and the black and white pieces were entangled with each other.
"What happened in the court meeting this morning?" Qin Mo asked first.
Upon hearing this, Li Mou couldn't help frowning slightly.
He looked into Qin Mo's eyes and said slowly: "Today's discussion was initiated by the newly promoted champion Hou Xiazu. I haven't received any news before."
"Xiazu??"
Qin Mo's expression moved, his eyes flickered, and various thoughts flashed through his mind.
Li Mou nodded, and continued: "Yesterday the Gaoling Xia Clan swaggered across the market and entered the imperial capital, and today they dared to attack the Li Clan. Such a fast action speed really exceeded my expectations."
"If you look at it this way, the new Xia Song from the Security Bureau today is the final result of the discussion?" Qin Mo asked.
"Well, that's right."
Li Mou nodded again, confirming that Qin Mo's guess was correct.
Seeing this, Qin Mo casually picked up a white piece and landed it in the middle of a pile of black pieces. At the same time, he asked in surprise:
"Hey, let me tell you, brother, the Security Bureau is the back garden of the Li family in Qingyang, so you can let Xia Zuan put a nail in?"
"Things are not as simple as you think. Xia Song's nail is the result of a final compromise."
Li Mou stared closely at the white piece that Qin Mo just dropped, and explained:
"Xiazu's move today is just the beginning, what he is doing is to create momentum for the Xia clan, and to continuously enhance the Xia clan's voice and influence by controlling important positions.
I can see it, and the other four can naturally see it too.
The Xia family wants to be promoted to a top family, which is to challenge the detached status of the five families, so the five people don't like it.
However, the thousand-year-old family has been standing in Daqin for too long, and the days of ease are gradually getting longer, and the arrogance has been deeply rooted in the bones.
Rao is up to now, the other four people still don't pay attention to the Gaoling Xia family, they just sneer at it. "
Having said this, Li Mou sighed heavily, and shook his head helplessly.
Although he is also a member of the five great families, his evaluation is very pertinent and hits the nail on the head.
The arrogance of the five families, Xia Zu once said to everyone in the Xia family, and he took advantage of it.
Now, Li Mou also said the same thing.
Although his strength is not top-notch, he is only a first-level awakener, but since he can be the head of the Li family, it is naturally impossible for him to be an ordinary person.
What I said just now is enough to see this.
Qin Mo fell into silence and didn't speak again for a while.
His current intelligence is as high as 157, and his super brain has been strengthened many times, and he understood Li Mou's implication in an instant.
You must know that although the five thousand-year-old families stood at the peak of the Great Qin Dynasty and monopolized the position of Duke, they were not monolithic.
So, this is a very simple multiple choice question.
Do they want to suppress the Gaoling Xia clan together, or use a knife to kill people and take the opportunity to deal with Qingyang Li clan?
There is no need to say more about the answer, it is already clear and clear.
Anyway, in their eyes, the Xia family is like an ant crawling on the ground, which can be trampled to death casually.
And Li Mou's next words just confirmed Qin Mo's idea.
I just heard him go on to say: "Other thousand-year-old families are contributing to the flames, Your Majesty's attitude is subtle, and Xia Zu made troubles in the imperial capital some time ago, and the security bureau did not work well. I can only choose to compromise. There is no other way.
Moreover, Li's luck is not very good. "
Um? ?
"Bad luck? What should I say?" Qin Mo raised his head and asked in doubt.
Li Mou spread his hands and said depressedly: "Do you still remember the Camellia Tavern? Two S-class awakened people died there inexplicably last night, and the Security Bureau didn't even have any clues about the killers.
I wanted to justify myself, but suddenly something happened, and the label of ineffectiveness was completely slapped on my head. "
Qin Mo: "..."
His body froze undetectably for a moment, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he was speechless for a moment.
This is really Li Shi's bad luck. After all, who would have thought that it would be such a coincidence?
Li Mou didn't notice his abnormality, but just raised his head and asked: "By the way, you boy's detection method is very clever, and even the elders are full of praise. What happened last night..."
Suddenly, Li Mou's voice stopped abruptly.
He suddenly thought of something in his heart, and looked suspiciously at Qin Mo.
"You didn't kill people, did you?!" Li Mouzhen said.
"Ahem, it should be...not me?"
Li Mou: "..."
No more asking.
He knows Qin Mo too well, just by looking at Qin Mo's current reaction, Li Mou already knows the answer to the matter.
I have to say, this is indeed a big surprise.
The atmosphere in the study suddenly became weird, and the silence was mixed with deep embarrassment.
Qin Mo's eyes wandered, he coughed lightly again, and said:
"Hey, brother, you can't blame me for this, and I'm definitely right to kill this person..."
Afterwards, he briefly explained to Li Mou what happened in the tavern last night, as well as his related speculations.
After listening to this, Li Mou's mental state was no longer good.
He stared blankly at the chessboard in front of him, his eyes glazed over.
Qin Mo killed this person without any fault, and Li Mou can figure it out.
But the problem is, this is too much of a coincidence.
However, even if this incident did not happen, Xia Zu would look for other breakthroughs to attack the Qingyang Li family.
This is beyond doubt.
Now it's just taking advantage of the deaths of Huang Ye and Kong Ying to make use of it.
The two of them didn't do any **** when they were alive, but they squeezed out some use after they died, which can be regarded as the best use of everything.
Thinking like this, Li Mou quickly adjusted his mentality.
He frowned slightly, looked up at Qin Mo, and said slowly: "Recently, please be patient, I will find an excuse in a few days and find a way to kick Xia Song out.
No matter what the security bureau is, it is also Li's security bureau. Since Xia Zu likes to interfere so much, I have to weigh it carefully, whether his legs are strong enough! "
Li Mou's eyes flickered, and a mighty dragon's power quietly permeated his whole body.
No matter how arrogant the five members are, they are still standing at the pinnacle of the Great Qin Empire, the top of the food chain.
They have never been vegetarians.
"It depends on your arrangement, brother." Qin Mo shrugged and said without any opinion.
At this point, the notification of the necessary information is complete, and the secret agent in the study is officially over.
Afterwards, Qin Mo was about to say goodbye and leave.
But who would have thought that Li Mou insisted on taking advantage of this time to play a few more games.
Qin Mo couldn't hold back him, so he had no choice but to agree. In the end, he had to stay in the study for more than an hour, and tortured him for four rounds.
By the time he left Li's Manor, Li Mou's face had turned dark into a pot, and he became more and more depressed.
"Qin Mo is a genius."
Looking at Qin Mo's back gradually disappearing into the night, Li Mou murmured softly.
Hearing this, the corners of the Duke's wife who was standing beside him turned up slightly, and said with a smile: "Since you are a talent from the sky, why don't you bring it to our Li family?"
"Oh? Does Madam mean..." Li Mou's expression changed.
"Don't pretend to be confused here, what do I mean, don't you know?"
Mrs. Guo gave him a dignified look, then turned around and walked back to the castle without further mentioning this matter.
She is a knowledgeable and well-measured woman.
Li Mou chose to act stupid at this time, which obviously rejected her proposal.
Since this is the case, of course she will not say more.
Rolling his eyes for no reason, the smile on Li Mou's face became more intense.
His hands were behind his back, his eyes were straight ahead, staring at the deep night, he had some thoughts in his heart.
Madam Shicai's proposal, of course he knows what it means.
There is only one way to completely win Qin Mo to the Li family, and that is to use the method of in-laws and let Qin Mo be his son-in-law.
I have to say that this proposal is extremely tempting.
With Qin Mo's astonishing talent, if Li Yuan marries him, he will have a very good life in the future.
Moreover, the current status of the Li family in Qingyang will be completely stabilized, and it may even go further.
This kills two birds with one stone, and Li Mou definitely won't lose.
But he still rejected the proposal without thinking, it is the same now, and it will be the same in the future.
Li Mou never forgot what he said.
He has told Li Yuan more than once that he will never use her as a tool for the exchange of benefits, and he will give Li Yuan maximum freedom.
At this moment, regardless of other identities, Li Mou is just fulfilling his promise as a father.
Of course, based on his understanding of Qin Mo, Qin Mo will basically not think about having a closer relationship with Li Yuan now.
What's more, with Li Yuan's current strength, she is not worthy of Qin Mo.
The gap between the two is too big.
Li Mou narrowed his eyes slightly, his pupils were black and white.
He sighed softly, then turned and walked back to the castle, leaving only a whisper to the lonely evening wind.
"It's good now."
…
…
Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch.
At this time, Qin Mo, who left Li's Manor, didn't know all this.
When he got home, it was almost nine o'clock.
Qin Mo habitually took off his clothes, turned into the bathroom, and turned on the shower.
After taking a cold shower, he entered the living room wrapped in a towel, nestled on the sofa, and browsed the border information for a while.
Then, after ten o'clock, Qin Mo climbed into bed on time and fell asleep.
So and so, nothing to say all night.
The next day, Qin Mo opened his eyes before sunrise as usual.
Thanks to his strong body, his current biological clock can be completely controlled by himself, and he can wake up whenever he wants.
Even if he doesn't sleep, it's perfectly fine. The recovery of up to 156 points is enough to make Qin Mo have plenty of energy and inexhaustible physical strength at all times.
He made breakfast by himself at home, and then ran all the way into the Security Bureau every day.
By the time Qin Mo took the elevator up to the top floor, Xia Song, the new deputy director who arrived yesterday, was already sitting in his office early.
The door of his room was not closed, facing Qin Mo's office.
Therefore, when Qin Mo pushed the door and entered, Xia Song directly saw all his actions, and saw him smiling:
"Deputy Director Qin, good morning."
Hearing this malicious greeting, Qin Mo turned his head and glanced at him, and then a harmless smile appeared on his face.
"Deputy Director Xia, I was fine at first, but just now, I suddenly became ill." He said.
After saying that, Qin Mo went straight in and closed the door with a bang.
Seeing that he didn't give himself or Gaoling Xia family any face, Xia Song didn't get angry because of it, he didn't seem to care.
However, Qin Mo, who was watching him through the wall, keenly observed that the arc of the corner of his mouth was pressed down by three points.
At the same time, the corners of Qin Mo's mouth rose even more.
…
…
Time passed by in a flash, and soon five hours later.
The top floor of the Security Bureau, two o'clock in the afternoon.
A hurried phone call suddenly rang in Qin Mo's office, breaking the silence.
Qin Mo Shi Shiran sat up from the chair next to the floor-to-ceiling windows, picked up the mobile phone on the desk, and looked up.
The mobile phone screen displayed Li Mou's phone number.
At this moment, many thoughts flashed through Qin Mo's heart, and there was a little surprise between his brows and eyes.
You know, the two just met last night and exchanged a wave of news.
Now that it was less than a day, Li Mou called again, which was obviously something very urgent.
Thinking in his heart, he pressed the connect button in his hand at the same time, and put the phone to his ear.
Li Mou's voice sounded immediately, extremely dignified!
"The investigation of the identity of the grimace mask by the Presbyterian Council has just now achieved results. Come to the manor now, and I will explain it to you face to face."
It was a simple sentence, but it revealed important information of Tianda.
Needless to say, the grimace mask was Xia Lin who Qin Mo beheaded in Mount Tai.
Now that his true identity has been found out, it means that the forces behind Taishan are about to surface, and the mysterious boss and chief executive hidden in the deep water are likely to surface as well!
Qin Mo paused immediately, his eyes were shining brightly, and his heart was burning.
The black veil covering his eyes seemed to have slowly lifted a corner of the veil.
Qin Mo didn't hesitate at all, and immediately replied in a deep voice:
"Okay, I'll be right there."
The voice fell to the ground, the phone was hung up, and a cold beep sounded.
Qin Mo put his phone in his pocket, stood up from the recliner, and walked out of the office.
He first went to the next door to find Su Yin, his personal secretary, and told her that if there was an emergency at the Security Bureau, call him, and he would leave for a while.
This kind of arrangement, if it was placed before yesterday, it would never have appeared.
Qin Mo can leave whenever he wants, and he is very free. Even if there is a serious matter in the Security Bureau, Li Mo and the others will handle it properly.
But now it is different, the addition of a deputy director, Xia Song, means that there will be an additional voice different from Li Mo and the others.
And this voice is very heavy.
That's why Qin Mo chose to give an order before going out.
After that, he walked quickly towards the outside of the Security Bureau building.
Unexpectedly, Qin Mo bumped into Xia Song just as he walked to the elevator entrance.
He seems to have been here a long time ago, waiting for Qin Mo.
"I don't know Deputy Director Qin, where are you going?" Xia Song stood in front of the elevator, with his hands behind his back, and asked with a smile.
Hearing this, Qin Mo squinted his eyes immediately, revealing a very dangerous look.
He didn't answer but asked instead: "I don't know Deputy Director Xia, where are you going?"
"Hehe, I'm not going anywhere, and I'm going to stay in the office today to deal with all kinds of complicated affairs that have accumulated in the bureau over the past few years.
After all, the Security Bureau is in charge of the security management of the imperial capital. In a big way, it is His Majesty's safety, which is the top priority.
If something goes wrong, you and I can't afford it, so I have to work hard. "
Xia Song replied slowly, and then he looked Qin Mo up and down.
"Hiss, I think Deputy Director Qin looks like he is about to go out? Now... it doesn't seem like off-duty time?"
When the voice fell to the ground, he didn't wait for Qin Mo to answer, and went straight to himself, acting as if he had suddenly realized, and let out a long oh.
Afterwards, Xia Song looked strange, and asked with a half-smile:
"Could it be that Deputy Director Qin is planning to leave his post without authorization?"
In a few words, he put a big hat on Qin Mo's head, intending to hold him accountable for leaving his post without authorization.
Qin Mo could sense the insidious intentions when he spoke.
Xia Song is clearly trying to disgust him on purpose!
Qin Mo's squinted eyes became more and more dangerous. He was silent for a moment, and then slowly said:
"Deputy Director Xia, you're keeping an eye on me."
"Hey, misunderstanding, this is really a misunderstanding, I just happened to meet Deputy Director Qin."
Xia Song said calmly, the smile between his brows and eyes became more and more intense, almost condensing into substance.
"Coincidence? Oh, it is indeed too coincidental."
Qin Mo sneered unhurriedly, and then said: "Deputy Director Xia should be more careful when going out in the future, but don't accidentally fall down on the ground and drown yourself in a puddle one day. It's going to be a joke."
Before the voice landed, he passed Xia Song and walked straight to the elevator.
Hearing this, Xia Song froze, and the expression on his face was wonderful.
He turned sideways, stared at Qin Mo firmly, and asked loudly:
"Deputy Director Qin, are you really going to leave your post without authorization?"
Hearing this, Qin Mo suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He turned around slowly, raised his head slightly, and looked at Xia Song indifferently.
"What? Do I need to inform you, Xia Song, if I go to have a cup of tea?
Deputy Director Xia, don't forget that you and I are just equals, and what can you do if I leave my post without authorization?
Do you want to sue me above? Then let Deputy Director Xia do what he wants.
When I was in front of Li Guogong, Director of the Security Bureau, I hoped that Deputy Director Xia could tell Li Guogong about how I left my post without authorization. "
Qin Mo's syllables were intentionally heavy on the words Director Li Guogong.
The meaning in it is self-evident.
At this time, the smile on Xia Song's face had disappeared without a trace, and several black lines gradually climbed up on his forehead.
He wanted to say something more, but he was already speechless by Qin Mo, and he was confused for a while.
Seeing this, Qin Mo sneered mockingly.
"Ah!"
He walked straight away.
As for Xia Song, who was stuck in place, it seemed that he had been given a body spell.
If it wasn't for his breathing becoming three-point heavy, and slowly clenching the five fingers hidden in his sleeves, he would have thought...he was **** off.
…
…
What happened at the elevator entrance was nothing more than an insignificant episode.
The moment Qin Mo walked out of the Security Bureau building, he exploded at a terrifying speed, soaring into the sky, and flew towards Li's Manor.
In less than ten seconds, he had already appeared in the study on the second floor of the ancient castle and met Li Mou.
Li Mou didn't greet him too much, he just picked up a freshly printed document on the desk, and handed it over.
The things on the document are exactly all the news that the Qingyang Li family has investigated about Xia Lin during this period.
Qin Mo took it in his hand and glanced down.
However, with just one glance, his originally calm face suddenly changed drastically, his eyes widened, and he exclaimed:
"Xia Lin?!"
Black and white, clear and clear.
Who would have thought that the owner of the grimace mask is also surnamed Xia!
Where in the world is there such a coincidence?
Besides the Xia of the Gaoling Xia Clan, which Xia could it be? !
Qin Mo was really shocked.
Just a surname alone has conveyed a huge amount of complex information.
Reminiscent of the various things that happened in the past few months, a huge spider web gradually formed in his mind.
And the thing that connects these spider threads at the center is a huge Xia character!
Qin Mo's expression was solemn, his eyes flickered rapidly, and he carefully looked down for more information about Xia Lin's identity on the document.
Seeing his reaction like this, Li Mou didn't find it strange.
Because when he just learned about it from the elders' meeting, he acted in the same way, even more exaggerated than Qin Mo.
This truth is indeed very surprising.
"That's right, this person named Xia Lin is indeed a member of the Gaoling Xia Clan, and he is also one of the core members.
Although it was stated that Xia Lin on the surface suffered from a serious illness thirty years ago and died suddenly, but it is basically impossible to completely erase the traces of a person in this world.
Even if he is disfigured and wears a grimace mask, his body shape cannot be changed, his blood cannot be changed, and neither can the genes buried in his bones. "
Li Mou stared at Qin Mo and spoke slowly.
Hearing this, Qin Mo raised his head, his expression has returned to calm.
Just when Li Mou said these two sentences, he had already read all the known information of Xia Lin, and casually threw the folder on the desk beside him.
"Doesn't that mean that the Gaoling Xia family has been mining the Qingyun vein inside Mount Tai?" Qin Mo frowned slightly.
"Um."
Li Mou nodded, and said: "The Presbyterian Council studied the Qingyun Mine you brought back. From the aspect of forcibly digging out genetic potential in exchange for strength, it reminds me of the Gaoling Xia clan that has risen suddenly in the past hundred years. .
Afterwards, most of the intelligence forces were assigned to the Xia family, and this was the reason why the investigation results could be obtained so quickly. "
In short, if this matter is about merit and reward, Qin Mo should account for 90%.
After all, the key clues came from the Qingyun mine, and all the Qingyun mines of the Qingyang Li family were brought back by Qin Mo.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he accounts for 90% of the credit.
Qin Mo's super brain is running rapidly, integrating all kinds of information, only to hear him continue:
"The forces behind the Tiandihui are the forces entrenched in the Taishan Mine. Now that Xia Lin's identity has been confirmed, the family power behind the Tiandihui must be the Gaoling Xia Clan.
Then, everything can be explained.
Brother, it seems that Xia Zu was the first to target the Li family in the court meeting yesterday, and he had planned it long ago. "
All the truth, at this moment, was clearly revealed in front of Qin Mo's eyes.
The veil covering his eyes has been completely lifted by him so far.
Tiandihui, Champion Hou, Taishan Mine…
The mastermind behind all these incidents is none other than the Gaoling Xia Clan!
It turned out that the relationship between Qin Mo and Xia Zu had been forged from the very beginning.
The feud between each other... is far from being as simple as taking the position of Marquis.
The nearly 8,000-word chapter is gone tonight, and it has been emptied. I will update it tomorrow, and it will only increase day by day.
In addition, to put it simply, the plot has reached a critical point for this. What I want to write next is just thinking about it. I am about to have an intracranial orgasm. I like it very much. I hope everyone can do the same. like.
All in all, I will write quickly, and everyone will read slowly. Those who have recommended monthly tickets can also vote for it.
