Chapter 1004: Chapter 751: VisitThe two found a corner seat by the window and sat down, Lin Zinuo directly ordered some signature steaks and said to Su Mo.
“The food here isn’t as good as back home, only what we just ate is worth it.”rating into the Federation, so don’t run around unnecessarily!”
Lin Zinuo handed the document back to Su Mo and advised him cautiously.
“Don’t worry, I understand. By the way, what does your father do? Why do you need to stay and help?”
Su Mo asked very curiously.
Mentioning this, Lin Zinuo gestured with her finger, asking Su Mo to come closer.
Su Mo curiously leaned in, wondering what was so secretive.
“My father is now contracted by the Federation Government to oversee the execution of an SSS-level confidential project.”
Su Mo was also surprised upon hearing Lin Zinuo’s words, projects at the SSS level are the core secrets of the Federation.
“Which project?”
“The construction of the multi-functional planetary Jump Fortress ‘Light of Wisdom Star’. Don’t tell anyone.”
Lin Zinuo whispered to Su Mo.
Hearing this, Su Mo’s shock grew. The new Council President’s ambition is indeed huge.
Building such a grand project, they really must be rich.
“Scared, aren’t you?”
Lin Zinuo asked with a smile watching Su Mo speechless.
“Cough, cough, it’s okay. By the way, there’s something I want to ask for your help.”
Su Mo said lightly.
“Go ahead, as long as I can help.”
Lin Zinuo replied without a second thought.
“Do you know someone named Augustus?”
Su Mo asked directly.
“Are you kidding me? Augustus was the previous Council President of District M; who doesn’t know him? The question is, does he know me?”
Lin Zinuo’s expression twisted slightly after hearing, looking at Su Mo with annoyance.
Su Mo wasn’t upset, just smiling as he said, “It’s enough that you know him. Where does he live?”
“What are you planning? Don’t joke around, though Augustus has retired, he’s still an influential figure. We can’t just see him whenever we want. You’ll be in trouble if you accidentally offend him.”
Lin Zinuo reminded Su Mo worriedly.
“It’s fine, I know what I’m doing. Just tell me the address.”
Su Mo remained very calm.
“Alright, he lives at 777 Saint Grace Street, there’s a standalone manor there, quite recognizable. Are you really going?”
Seeing Su Mo was so determined, Lin Zinuo finally told him. After all, even if she didn’t, finding Augustus’s place wouldn’t be too hard for him, being so famous.
“Yes.”
Su Mo nodded with a broad smile.
“Okay then, how long are you staying in Freedom City this time?”
Lin Zinuo looked at Su Mo with expectation.
“Not sure, it mainly depends on how the debt collection goes.”
Su Mo thought for a bit and said, since he’s already here, he has to get the money.
“Do you have a place to stay now? Want to stay at my place?”
Lin Zinuo directly invited Su Mo.
“We’ll talk about that later, let’s see how things go first. Let’s eat without mentioning it.”
“Alright.”
….
After over an hour, Su Mo and Lin Zinuo finished their meal and bid each other temporary farewell.
He hailed a flying car and headed toward Saint Grace Street.
Watching the scenery quickly passing by, Su Mo had a thoughtful expression.
With District M’s strict control, there’s no way into the Federation Council Building, so he can only bravely seek help from Augustus.
After all, he’s a big shot here.
Su Mo contemplated, although his relationship with Augustus isn’t deep, there’s still some connection.
He might help, right?
At worst, he wouldn’t shut him out, right?
While Su Mo was pondering,
the flying car stopped, and the driver said, “Sir, we’ve arrived at your destination.”
“Great.”
After paying the fare via his phone, Su Mo got out.
Once out, Su Mo quickly spotted Augustus’s place, indeed just as Lin Zinuo described, very distinctive.
The entire area belonged to Augustus’s home, of course it was distinctive, with a pure white jade-stone gate.
However, at this moment, a massive crowd was gathered at the gate.
There were wealthy people in luxurious designer clothes, non-commissioned officers in military uniforms, and officials in Federation Government uniforms.
Su Mo roughly estimated that there were at least a few hundred people.
So many people wanting to see Augustus, this might be tricky.
Additionally, Su Mo noticed Augustus’s gate was firmly shut, showing no intention of receiving visitors.
Su Mo couldn’t help but look curiously as he walked over to investigate.
