Chapter 153 The Company Moved Away!

The middle-aged man glanced at Chen Mo, and seemed a little surprised by his interest, but nodded: "You mean the meteorite? It's true. But that happened several years ago, and few people mention it now."

The middle-aged man immediately introduced Chen Mo to the story of the meteorite.

"...When the meteorite fell, the whole sky lit up, as if day had come." The middle-aged man said, "It hit the desert north of the town, shaking the whole town. We all thought the end of the world was coming, and we were so scared that we hid at home and didn't dare to come out."

Chen Mo's heart moved, he did not interrupt the middle-aged man's story, but continued to listen quietly.

"Later, the next morning, someone had the courage to see the meteorite crater.

It is said that the crater is so big that the meteorite will glow during the day. At that time, we were afraid of radiation, so we immediately contacted Ford, which was doing related research nearby, to come and deal with it." The middle-aged man continued.

"Nearby Ford? There are still companies operating in this place." Chen Mo asked in confusion.

"They have moved away. Not long after they transported the meteorite away, the entire company moved away. We think it might be caused by radiation, so we dare not go to that area anymore." The middle-aged man answered every question.

"Such a thing actually happened. This company can be regarded as helping our town to avoid disaster."

"Who said it wasn't? Speaking of this, we really have to thank them. Otherwise, if the radioactive meteorite stayed near the town, who knows what our town would become." The middle-aged man sighed.

After finding out this information, Chen Mo was not going to stay any longer.

The information collected today was enough.

Chen Mo secretly remembered this information in his heart. He did not continue to ask more about the meteorite and Ford Company, because he knew that too direct curiosity would often lead to unnecessary suspicion. He decided to leave the tavern and go to other places to find out the news.

After leaving the tavern, Chen Mo strolled through the streets and alleys of the town.

He saw an old woman sitting in a rocking chair in front of the house, squinting her eyes and enjoying the warm sunshine, living in harmony with the world. A group of children were playing in the open field, and their laughter echoed in the air, adding a touch of vitality to this quiet town.

This scene made Chen Mo feel more deeply the sense of doomsday and escapism in this town.

The people here seemed to be isolated from the world. They lived a simple and honest life and did not care about the disturbances in the outside world.

Although the fall of the meteorite brought a temporary sensation and panic to the town, it was gradually forgotten in the dust of history as time passed.

Without staying in the town for a long time, after finding a place where no one else could see, Chen Mo moved directly and arrived at the destination according to the address of Ford Company that he had just learned from the middle-aged man by using mind reading.

As the man said, this place had been completely emptied, leaving only an empty shell.

Although this company is called Ford, not Water, GPP is a subsidiary of Water, so Water is quite powerful, and it is normal for it to have some other subsidiaries.

This Ford may be a subsidiary of Water.

Chen Mo stood in front of the vacated old site of Ford, looking at the once busy and noisy factory area, which was now deserted, with only empty factory buildings and dilapidated facilities.

He decided to go in and see if he could find anything.

The old site of Ford covers a large area and is surrounded by high walls.

The door was closed and rusty. Chen Mo looked inside through the crack in the door and saw that it was overgrown with weeds and desolate.

He walked around the wall and found that the wall had collapsed in some places, revealing the scene inside.

Rows of dilapidated factory buildings stood there quietly, the window glass had long been broken, leaving only the empty window frames swaying in the wind.

The walls were covered with mottled rust.

Chen Mo walked into one of the factories, and his footsteps immediately echoed in the empty factory. He looked up and saw that the high ceiling was covered with spider webs, and the air was filled with a musty and dusty smell.

Some abandoned machinery and equipment were scattered on the ground, rusted and deformed, and could no longer be used.

He continued to explore the factory, trying to find some clues about the meteorite being studied here.

However, after searching the entire Ford company site, he found nothing except dust and waste on the ground.

It can be seen that Ford moved away completely, leaving behind all useless things, and no information that could be used to check the data was left, and the clues seemed to be cut off at once.

However, since Ford Company has moved, it is impossible that no one nearby has seen where they are going for such a large company to move.

Thinking of this, Chen Mo decided to find a local detective to investigate the relevant information.

Chen Mo was not afraid of finding anyone related to Water Company.

After all, he has the ability to read minds. If the other person is related to Water Company, he will definitely not be able to hide it after he tells them the relevant investigation requirements.

Chen Mo soon came to a relatively large and modern town nearby.

This town is still a little far from the desolate town just now, but it is already the largest town closest to the old site of Ford Company.

If you want to investigate the Ford Company, you may not be able to do it aimlessly. It is best to ask people nearby to help.

He walked on the street, searching the shops on the roadside. Soon, he stopped in front of a shop called [Eagle Eye Detective Agency].

Various detective tools and information are displayed behind the glass window of the store. A man wearing a straight suit and a sloping head is sitting behind the counter, looking through documents.

Chen Mo pushed open the door of the shop, knocked twice, and then walked in.

The man with the big back raised his head and greeted him with a smile: "Hello, welcome to the Eagle Eye Detective Agency. Is there anything you need my help with?"

"I want to investigate the whereabouts of a company." Chen Mo walked up to the man with the big back and said straight to the point.

As he spoke, he glanced at the business card on the man's desk.

It was a coincidence that this guy's name was actually Ford, which made Chen Mo laugh.

"Investigating the whereabouts of a company?" A trace of curiosity flashed in Ford's eyes. He put down the document in his hand and motioned for Chen Mo to sit down. "Please give me more details."

After Chen Mo sat down, he told the man in front of him some information about Ford Company.
