Al answered the call and turned on the loudspeaker . He questioned, "Shin, what did you find out?"
Shintaro asked back from the other side of the phone, "Before that, tell me who is with you?"
Al glanced at his comrades . "With me… Carl and Osiris . "
Shintaro was stunned hearing the answer . "What? Osiris? What is he doing there?"
Al shrugged . "He came here to see his baby . "
Shintaro said, "He was given a task . I hope he finished it without any problem . . . "
Osiris interrupted him . "Of course I did . Now tell us what you found . "
Shintaro disclosed what he had found . " . . . This is bad . You should capture the person who planted these bugs as soon as possible . The one who did it isn't the enemy of the Mu boy's mother . . . "
The four of them had a heated conversation for fifteen minutes .
AdvertisementCarlo got up from the sofa . "I'll look for the person before the Mu boy finds out . It will be a problem if he gets the culprit first . I can already tell who is behind this . "
After he left, Osiris put down his bowl . He sighed . "To think that the enemy was after my baby and made a scapegoat her future mother-in-law… A clever move against the Mu boy but not against us . Isn't it too easy to deal with? Something is definitely wrong with this plan . Maybe the one who planned it was an idiot or I'm thinking too much into this . "
Al was silent . He was also in deep thought . He couldn't get the answer of the puzzle in his head . Thus, he stood up, took the bowls and went out of the room . He wanted to wash the bowls and clean his head at the same time .
Osiris yawned and laid down on the bed again . His eyes landed on Mu Lan . Her face was slightly flushed . He reached out his hand and touched her forehead . Her body was burning .
He instantly got out of the bed and headed towards the bathroom to soak a towel in the cool water .
When Al finished washing the dishes, he came inside the room and saw Mu Lan's forehead was covered with soaked towel . "Does she have a fever?"
Osiris replied in a solemn tone, "Yes, her temperature is rising . Should I wake her up to take medicine?"
Al walked closer . "Carl said that she would wake up on her own . It won't be good to wake her up before that . "
Osiris asked, "He didn't say that she was going to have fever, did he?"
Al hesitated before answering, "…No . "
"Carl isn't answering my call either . I'll wait a little bit then . If her temperature rises more than this, I will wake her up . " Osiris out his hand under his chin .
Al got a telepathy message from Carlo . Al told Osiris, "Carl is calling me . Maybe he needs my help . I'm going . "
"Alright, don't forget to mention her fever to him . " Osiris reminded him .
"Of course I won't . " Saying that Al left .
After he left, Osiris remembered something . "Ah, I forgot to mention my mission to them . I guess I will tell them later . "

Altan Yul went to the dungeon as Carlo asked him to . He found Carlo in the second cell . There was a woman's body lying there, a dead body . It looked like that the woman was tortured before death .
"…Did you kill her?" Al asked .
"No, I found it dead . But look what I found . " Carlo bent down and removed the collar of the dress of the dead woman . There was a mark of mongoose on the cleavage of the dead woman .
Al commented, "Shin was correct as usual . But who killed her? Since she is a member of them, she wasn't an easy opponent . It has to be someone of their own team . "
"How funny! I never thought that we would meet the two of them in here . They are looking for a war . " Carlo's eyes glowed . His lips stretched but his eyes were smiling .
Al was curious . "Do you know who is the other one?"
Carlo nodded . "Yes, but I wonder how long they were here in this family . I don't think they can see the future . If they don't have someone with Juan's power, why were they here in the first place? What are they planning?"
Juan had the power to see the future . If the enemy had power like Juan, they would know that the precious child of The Cobra would end up here in the Mu Family . However, having the power to see the future was out of question . If so, then what was their objective to come to the Mu Family?
Al said, "You won't know if you don't capture that person . "
Carlo glanced at Al . "That's true . Al, I have a task for you . "
Al naturally asked, "What is it?"
Carlo replied, "You have to dig a grave . "
"For this woman? I don't want to . " Al stubbornly said . Who would want to dig a grave for an enemy who tried to harm your precious child?
Carlo shook his head . "Not for this one . There is a tomb nearby the castle . You have to dig out a dead body . "
"What?!" Al was dumbfounded .
Carlo turned around to leave the cell . "Find the grave and dig out the dead body . I have things to do . "
After he left, Al followed after him . He totally forgot what Osiris wanted him to say to Carlo .

Mu Feng was done with answering questions of the police . He got permission from Lu Feng's father, Doctor Lu to take Jing Sheng home . A VIP ambulance sent him back to the castle with unconscious Jing Sheng . The butlers carried the stretcher of Jing Sheng and took her to the unused room of her in the second floor .
"Tell the chef to cook something healthy . Mother is sick . " Mu Feng instructed his maid .
"Yes, second young master . " The maid bowed and left .
Qi Ying entered the room and said, "I heard what happened . How's mother-in-law? And what about Noel?"
