Time rewound half an hour ago.
Several bodyguards were tall and stocky. They coldly asked a few people to go back.
They clearly didn't give any face to Zhao Ziling's younger sister.
Lin Mo sized up the bodyguards and then evaluated the combat strength on their side.
Shen Yihan, the so - called "Buddha of the Beijing circle", had financial resources but no combat power.
Zhao Zixin, the school bully of No. 3 Middle School, had a certain amount of combat power.
Zhao Zixin, known as the "rice - bowl warrior", had a bit of combat power, but it was nothing in front of real bodyguards.
As for herself, she had combat power and could handle one or two bodyguards, but it would be difficult to deal with five or six of them.
Moreover, even if they managed to break through this hurdle, there might be more bodyguards inside the Huo Residence.
The old - money families in the Beijing circle always paid great attention to ostentation.
New - money elites in the Beijing circle, like Xie Guanyan, didn't have bodyguards around them and lived in an old villa.
In conclusion, a head - on confrontation wouldn't work.
Lin Mo tugged at Zhao Zixin. "Let's go back to the car first."
In the Bentley.
Zhao Zixin and Shen Ji'an sat together in the back seat.
She leaned forward. "Goddess, what on earth do you want to talk to my sister about? How about coming tomorrow?"
Lin Mo shook her head. "I have to see her today. Apart from this main gate, is there any other way to get into the Huo Residence?"
Zhao Zixin thought for a moment. "There's a side gate, but there's a large lake outside the side gate. Without a boat, you can't reach the Huo Residence."
Lin Mo squinted her eyes. "Can you draw a floor plan? Can you draw a floor plan of the Huo Residence for me, preferably indicating which room your sister lives in?"
Zhao Zixin nodded. "Sure. My dream is to be an architectural designer. I'll draw it for you on my phone."
Shen Ji'an glanced at Zhao Zixin.
He thought she was quite versatile and that his sister would definitely like her in the future.
A few minutes later.
Looking at the abstract lines on the phone, Shen Ji'an felt relieved.
Lin Mo picked up the phone and examined it carefully. "The lines are quite straight."
Zhao Zixin was delighted to be praised. "Of course. Here is the lake, this is the main gate, this is the villa where my sister lives, this is her bedroom, and this is the bed."
Shen Ji'an frowned. "Is this the bed? I thought it was a toilet!"
Lin Mo gave Shen Ji'an a light tap on the head and said to Zhao Zixin, "I understand."
The three of them huddled their heads together, and Shen Yihan found it hard to get a word in.
At this time, he spoke up. "Sister, are you going to sneak in? I'll go with you."
Shen Ji'an and Zhao Zixin simultaneously raised their hands. "I want to go too!"
Lin Mo shook her head. "I'll go by myself. If there are too many people, the target will be too big."
Shen Yihan rotated the Buddhist beads around his right wrist with his left hand. "How do you plan to get in?"
Lin Mo: "Swim in."
Shen Yihan disagreed. "No. The lake water is cold at night, and we don't know how big the lake is. It's too dangerous."
Lin Mo put the phone away and smiled. "Kid, have you forgotten that I was a national swimming champion? I just checked. The lake isn't very wide. It's a piece of cake for me."
When the car plunged off the bridge, she had thought she could swim to the shore.
Unexpectedly, the car door couldn't be opened.
Shen Yihan was worried. "You definitely can't go alone!"
In the end, Lin Mo agreed to take Shen Yihan with her.
Otherwise, the "Buddha of the Beijing circle" would have grabbed her legs and stopped her from going.
They hailed two taxis and sent Shen Ji'an and Zhao Zixin back first.
Lin Mo wasn't sure what would happen next or how long it would take.
These two kids had school the next day!
"Be careful, sister!"
"Be careful, goddess!"
Zhao Zixin and Shen Ji'an said to Lin Mo reluctantly at the same time.
Zhao Zixin really couldn't figure out what kind of big deal would make the goddess swim across the lake to find her sister.
But the goddess must have her reasons for doing so!
Lin Mo smiled. "Got it. Send me a message when you arrive safely."
After the black Bentley drove away a bit, Lin Mo and Shen Yihan got out of the car and secretly walked around to the side gate.
Two burly bodyguards who had been following at a distance: "..."
The two bodyguards didn't know what was going on.
But they exchanged a look and immediately abandoned the car and followed them.
It was a large lake. The Huo family could enjoy the lake view from their home at any time.
On a nice day, they could even go boating.
However, it was pitch - black at night, giving a rather creepy feeling.
Lin Mo wasn't afraid at all.
With a "plop", she jumped into the lake, splashing a large area of water.
Shen Yihan used to be Lin Mo's swimming training partner.
He wasn't as good as Lin Mo at swimming, but he was still decent.
He took off his suit and left it on the shore, then also "plopped" into the lake.
The two burly bodyguards watched as the two of them jumped into the lake like dumplings.
They were silent for a moment.
In the dim light, they exchanged a look.
They had been derelict in their duties once before.
They couldn't let Miss Lin be in danger again and hesitate.
They got into the lake quietly.
But the lake water was cold. The elder brother was shivered by the cold and bit down hard on his younger brother's arm muscle to keep from making a sound.
The younger brother: "..."
As Lin Mo swam, she felt there were two more people behind her.
She was a professional swimmer and could judge how far the people behind her were by the ripples in the water.
When she reached the shore, she stood on the bank, squinting at the lake.
Could it be that Shen Ji'an and Zhao Zixin had secretly followed them?
The two bodyguards swam and popped their heads out of the water to take a breath.
They saw the girl on the shore standing with her hands on her hips, giving them a death stare.
Their hearts raced, their eyes widened, and they both dived underwater at the same time.
Oh no! In this darkness, hopefully, they hadn't been discovered!
The side gate of the grand Huo Residence was lit.
Lin Mo recognized them at a glance!
Weren't these the two kind - hearted burly men who had come to her rescue last time?
What were they doing here?
Shen Yihan was a bit slower.
When he got on the shore, he casually pushed his hair back with his hand wearing the black Buddhist beads, revealing his smooth and full forehead.
"Sister, what are you looking at?"
Lin Mo pointed at the water. "There are two more people there!"
Shen Yihan was slightly startled. "Who's in the water?"
The two bodyguards' hearts sank.
Facing the choice between being discovered and being suffocated, they chose the former.
Two big heads popped out at the same time, looking more constipated than someone who hadn't pooped for five hundred days.
The younger brother usually followed his elder brother's instructions.
He poked his elder brother underwater. "Brother, what should we do now?"
The elder brother's mind was racing. He waved and greeted them. "Hey! What a coincidence. You're also wild - swimming?"
Some swimming enthusiasts really liked to explore unfamiliar waters.
During the day, the Huo Residence definitely wouldn't allow outsiders to swim here.
Lin Mo smiled. "It's really a coincidence. What a fateful encounter, two kind - hearted big brothers!"
She hadn't even had the chance to thank these two people last time!
The two bodyguards got on the shore, their mouths twitching. "Yes, it is quite a coincidence."
Lin Mo rolled her eyes.
It was really like having a pillow when you were sleepy.
She had been worried about the bodyguards inside the Huo Residence.
But for Zhao Ziling's sake, she could only brace herself and face the situation.
She was prepared to deal with whatever came up.
However, these two men were imposing in terms of their build.
She thought for a moment and said, "Two big brothers, I have a way for you to make some money..."
