Awakening the Daily Intelligence System

Chapter 434: 158, being in a foreign land, a video call between Lin Mo and Chen Shanhe!_3

Today is the day he releases the “Public Letter to the Nation”, which is essentially the important day when he announces his ascension to the throne to the whole of Japan.

Ichiro Toyota looked at the room full of distinguished guests and frowned, saying, “Qian, hasn’t Takeuchi arrived yet?”

Shigeharu Takeuchi was Chen Shanhe’s false identity, or more accurately, his new identity, because not only he, his son Chen Ze had also changed to a Japanese name and had taken Ichiro Toyota as his godfather.

Clad in a kimono, Qian Sheng spoke respectfully, “Your Majesty the Emperor, Takeuchi is feeling unwell and probably cannot make it today. Please forgive this absence.

“Oh, I had forgotten about Takeuchi’s ill health the past couple of days. Tell him he must take care of himself; my first act after coronation will be to mobilize the nation’s resources to help him find that damn Lin Mo.” Ichiro Toyota spoke very sincerely, and indeed, he trusted Chen Shanhe deeply in his heart.

It could be said that without Chen Shanhe, there would be no today for him.

In his heart, Chen Shanhe was no less significant than a father figure.

Ichiro Toyota knew that Lin Mo was a thorn in Chen Shanhe’s side, so the first thing he wanted to do upon taking office was to find Lin Mo.

Indeed, for so many days, their family’s strength had also been continuously searching for Lin Mo, to no avail.

But after taking the throne, it would be different,

although Japan is but a small country, it also possesses a very powerful intelligence agency.

With the nation’s intelligence services at his disposal, there is no one who cannot be found.

…

Meanwhile.

In Japan, by a secluded riverside.

Although Chen Shanhe had taken a Japanese name, his private attire still mainly consisted of traditional Tang clothing.

He wasn’t ill, he simply preferred sitting by the riverside fishing to attending what’s so-called the King’s coronation ceremony.

Chen Ze, frowning beside him, said, “Dad, won’t your feigned illness and absence from Ichiro Toyota’s coronation ceremony make him suspicious?”

“Ha,” Chen Shanhe glanced at him, speaking dismissively, “A true man born into this world should not live submissively for long, should he?”

“Do you think your father has no plans of his own?”

What?

Chen Ze was taken aback and asked with surprise, “Dad, could it be that you want to…?”

“I don’t want anything,” Chen Shanhe shook his head, interrupting him, and added, “I am old and won’t live much longer. All I want is to find Lin Mo and kill him to eliminate future troubles.”

“As long as he’s alive, you and I will have to live under others, always anxious and wary.”

“I am old, but you are still young…”

Chen Ze, with a face full of shame and an apologetic tone, said, “I’m sorry, father, for failing to understand…”

“Go on with your duties, leave me be for a while,” Chen Shanhe gestured with his hand.

Chen Ze wanted to speak more, but in the end, he could only nod helplessly and turn to leave.

By the quiet little river, only Chen Shanhe’s solitary figure remained.

The sunlight was just right, and the breeze was not harsh.

Looking at the flowing ripples in the water, Chen Shanhe inexplicably remembered the afternoon when he first met Lin Mo.

“So many days have passed, where could you be hiding?”

“Or rather, are you planning on how to get rid of me again?”

Mysteriously, Chen Shanhe took out his phone and looked at the message he had sent to Lin Mo before.

It was the very message he himself had sent, read but not replied to.

“Although we are adversaries, perhaps no one in this world understands me better than you do.”Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Chen Shanhe’s fingers slid over the screen, sending a video call request.

Now alone in a foreign land, burdened with a name he didn’t like, doing things he didn’t care for.

Although everything was going smoothly, only he truly understood his own loneliness.
