Chapter 48 -47: Mu Lin with an Innocent Face_1

“Alright, now, who will help me deliver this to the back?” Mu Lin chuckled as she simply wasn’t familiar with the place.

Looking at the lifted corners of Mu Lin’s mouth, for some reason, the group felt that something seemed different, yet they couldn’t pinpoint what exactly it was.

Well, it doesn’t matter.

“I’ll go.” Ji Shubai stood up, taking the small porcelain bottle from Zhang Mingzhe’s hand. “Any specific requirements?” he asked, looking at Mu Lin.

“Ask them not to disclose the identity of the owner for now, but if the buyer truly wants to meet, they may come for consultation later.” Mu Lin ordered.

Pausing for a moment, he then nodded. For Mu Lin’s audacity, Ji Shubai truly admired her, for her boldness to face the hidden mastermind without hesitation was not something any ordinary person could discern. But what intrigued him most was the nature of the feud between Mu Lin and this hidden figure.

Anything that interests Mu Lin surely won’t be straightforward.

In the private room.

“You go see what Ji Shubai has in his hand, and what his purpose is.” Jing Chen gave a muted order while observing the scene below.

He wondered if Mu Lin’s purpose of coming here today coincided with his, or was it just coincidence.

His eyes were deep in thought, yet the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

“Yes.” Black Shark nodded and turned towards the exit.

Meanwhile, the same thing was happening in another private room at that time. Their curiosity was piqued about what was contained in the small porcelain bottle that Mu Lin had brought. Jing Chen could probably guess, considering he already had knowledge of her identity.

If Mu Lin knew that two of the three private rooms were occupied by familiar faces, she could probably quickly guess the whereabouts of the person she was looking for, thereby eliminating the need for these roundabouts.

A few moments later, Black Shark returned.

“Dr. Mu has something to auction here.”

“What is it?” Xigua asked curiously.

“It’s the poison that the young master of the Zhang family had been afflicted with.” After a pause, Black Shark continued, “Furthermore, Ji Shubai conveyed that if a buyer wishes to meet the seller, they may consult after the auction is over.” Since it has been said this way, there must have been an intention for a meeting.

However, why?

What is Mu Lin’s objective after all? Anyway, their intuition tells them there is no way due to the lack of money.

Jing Chen didn’t say anything, but he was now sure that perhaps Mu Lin’s objective was the same as his; to draw attention of the person distributing the drugs in secret. But the question was…why?

Perhaps that poison was not sold but lost by Mu Lin!

Jing Chen must acknowledge… that is half the truth! Whether or not the poison was lost by Mu Lin herself, even she was not sure at this point, but her reason for coming today was in search of the answer.

…

Outside, Ji Shubai returned to his place.

“I just took the opportunity to inquire about the final climax, but.” No answer.

Seeing the look on Ji Shubai’s face, everyone could guess that he must have hit a snag, only to further hear him say-.

“They kept your Soul Returner before the final climax.”

Ji Shubai turned to Mu Lin, unsure if she could roughly guess what the last item is.

Hearing Ji Shubai’s words, Mu Lin’s mouth curved into a smile, “I can probably guess what today’s climax is.”

“What is it?” The group asked instinctively.

“In general, there are not less than two things that can overpower the Soul Returner. “As she scanned the curious eyes, the smile on Mu Lin’s lips grew deeper, her eyes became colder, and she slowly opened her mouth, “One of them, even I cannot solve it. Or rather, there’s simply not enough time.”

“What!” The normally calm group couldn’t stay calm anymore.

“How is this possible? Isn’t that your thing?” Yang Yuebin asked bluntly.

“It’s my thing, alright. But I haven’t developed an antidote yet.” Mu Lin said with a light laugh, her face innocent, “Moreover, it is not written anywhere that if I own it, I must know how to counter it.” Even though she can’t solve it now, it’s just a matter of time. She would be able to develop an antidote soon, as she just lacked one ingredient.

Fine, you’re the boss, you can be wilful!

The group was left dumbfounded.

As for the two women next to Jing Youlan, if they were initially jealous of Mu Lin, they couldn’t feel it now, or rather, they were terrified; not just because of her indifference towards human life but also the attitudes of the men around her. The prospect of inadvertently crossing her was terrifying, they feared for their lives.

While they didn’t know what the Poison Doctor represented, but anyone who could elicit such dread and astonishment from Jing Youlan and his entourage cannot possibly be a small fry.

Poison, if not handled carefully, could certainly be deadly.

“Wait, that isn’t right.” After the feeling of helplessness, someone finally realized another implication of Mu Lin’s words, “Why is it only a matter of time?”

Mu Lin: “I don’t know if you’ve ever heard that I have a poison named Hades.”

Everyone nodded; how could they not have heard of it?

“I heard my grandfather mention it.” Zhou Yujun said.

“The poison of Hades can kill in an instant and if someone is poisoned while I am present, there might be a chance of their survival. But if I am not there, even if I arrive later, I would be facing nothing but a corpse.” She was not capable of bringing the dead back to life, yet.

She should take some time to develop the antidote to Hades now, to avoid the day when this poison might become the disgrace of her life.

If she cannot solve even the poison that she herself has developed, what kind of Poison Doctor is she?

Although she did not care about this reputation, she did not like the feeling of being slapped in the face.
