AWAKENING THE DAILY INTELLIGENCE SYSTEM

Chapter 558: 219, this person clearly had the power to found a country, but in the end he returned to his own country to surrender?_1

“Elder Wu!”

“Old Mr. Wu, what brings you here!”

“Jingguo, it’s been too long, I’ve missed you!”

“Wu, hope you’ve been well of late.”

Many people in the hall recognized Wu Jingguo, and after a brief moment of surprise, they all greeted him.

Although shocked about why he would appear at the police station at such a sensitive time, they still carried out the necessary pleasantries.

…

And in fact, most of them actually feared Wu Jingguo to some extent, given his former position and capabilities, which were far beyond their reach.

Even though he was currently idling at home, the resources and connections he could mobilize were not something they could contend with.

They held no grudges and preferred to have more friends than enemies.

Wu Jingguo, however, didn’t pay much attention to those present; he hadn’t cared before, and he didn’t care now.

And ever since he entered the police station, the air of idleness he had cultivated at home had lessened considerably, replaced by his former sharpness.

Like a treasured blade, even if dulled by time and covered with dust, the moment it was drawn from its sheath, it could still inspire awe.

Wu Jingguo had forged his own place in Grand Xia with the sharpness of a sword.

This was also why, even after retiring to his home, he remained so keen on collecting treasured swords and sabers.

“I trust everyone is doing well, Jingguo is imposing on your time.”

Wu Jingguo, with an indifferent expression, bowed slightly to the crowd and then cut to the chase, “Where is Liu now? Please inform him that Wu Mou has come for the appointment.”

Hmm?

Hearing his words, everyone got a clue as to why he had appeared at the police station.

It turned out that it was Liu Limin who had invited him.

But that only made them more surprised because they really couldn’t understand why Liu Limin would invite him out of retirement.

Wasn’t it said that the two of them had a bad relationship in the past?

It was a mystery they were destined not to solve, so they didn’t think about it any further, and it would not be good to discuss such matters in front of Wu Jingguo.

One of Liu Limin’s subordinates stepped forward and said courteously, “Elder Wu, Elder Liu is currently on the second floor, I’ll take you there.”

He led the way, and Wu Jingguo nodded slightly, following at a moderate distance.

Only after seeing the two of them ascend the stairs did the discussions among the crowd gradually start.

“What’s going on? How come Wu Jingguo has arrived?”

“Why has Elder Liu invited him? It couldn’t be a ruse, could it?”

“Does he have the guts?”

“Haha, have you forgotten that he is Wu Jingguo? Is there anything he wouldn’t dare do?”

“He’s highly unlikely to lie about such a thing; maybe it was Elder Liu who invited him. Anyway, the man has gone up, and we’re all here; there’s nothing to fear about Wu Jingguo causing trouble.”

“But this is Rakshasa City, Wu Jingguo’s stronghold.”

“Haha, he’s not as frightening as all that. Even though he and our Elder Liu had a past conflict, now he’s nothing but a toothless tiger. While he still has his tiger’s aura, all his teeth are gone. What’s there to fear?”

…..

Wu Jingguo didn’t hear the discussions of the people behind him, and even if he had, he wouldn’t have taken it seriously.

After all, he was a man who had spent his life in military campaigns; he had been through much greater storms and did not care for the whispers of the insignificant.

Plus, even if he wasn’t nearby, he could guess that those people would not have any good words to say about him, and there was no need for him to stoop to their level.

Their worlds were different long ago.

Those whom Wu Jingguo had once looked down upon, he still looked down upon now.

Upon reaching the second floor, the person leading the way stood in front of an office door and said respectfully, turning back, “Elder Wu, Elder Liu and Lin Mo are inside. You may knock on the door yourself.”

“Elder Liu instructed us not to disturb him without significant reasons.”

Wu Jingguo, expressionless, nodded slightly, and after watching the guide leave, stood at the door and knocked.

“Come in.”

Hearing the familiar voice of Liu Limin, Wu Jingguo frowned involuntarily as some past events flashed through his mind.

“Haha, I really didn’t expect to see you again in this lifetime.”

Wu Jingguo took a deep breath, concealing all his displeasure in his heart, and slowly pushed the door open and entered.

Liu Limin stood up to welcome him, reaching out his hand in a seemingly generous gesture, “Jingguo, it’s been a long time.”

Lin Mo, aware of Wu Jingguo’s expected visit, wasn’t too surprised and simply stood up from the sofa, without saying much.

He wasn’t familiar with Wu Jingguo.

Even though he wasn’t clear about the other party’s current situation, Lin Mo had no intention of pleasing him or even caring too much about whether Wu Jingguo would come.

After all, he was not the same Lin Mo as before; even when meeting great figures, it was unlikely he would act too courteous or excited.

However, he did sense that Wu Jingguo had a different aura about him than before.

Or rather, he was completely in a different state.

If before Lin Mo had seen Wu Jingguo as a congenial old man who loved sword and saber collectibles, then now, Lin Mo felt as if he were looking at a ferocious tiger that had emerged from its cage.

Although Wu Jingguo was good at hiding it, Lin Mo could still sharply feel the disdain and contempt that Wu Jingguo held in the depths of his eyes for Liu Limin.
