Chapter 149 Pisces
Mu You paused the game, opened WeChat, and was about to send Lin Xue a message.
As a result, at this moment, the wind chime at the door suddenly rang.
A young man in a suit and leather shoes pushed the door in, but he backed away half a step just after entering the door, looked at the photos on his phone, and compared it carefully with the sign above his head, then stepped in again, muttering: " It should be right here... Tricky Pet Store, the name is too bad, how could my sister come to such a place..."
Mu You looked up and saw that the first guest who entered the door today was actually someone he knew.
Rich second-generation anchor Lin Hai, it is said that he joined the business alliance not long ago, but he did not expect to suddenly appear in his store today.
As soon as Lin Hai entered the door, he was about to say something when he saw Mu You sitting at the front desk, and was taken aback for a moment.
After carefully observing Muyou for a few times, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Huh? Master?"
"it's me."
Mu You nodded, feeling a little strange in his heart. He hasn't changed his skin now, so he doesn't know how the other party recognized him.
"It really is you, master! I didn't expect this to be your shop... Oh, so my sister has been working here recently, no wonder!" Lin Hai sighed belatedly.
"Why are you here, Miss Ni?"
Mu You looked at Lin Hai. Lin Xue didn't come to work today, but her younger brother Lin Hai came to the door... This made him vaguely guess a possibility in his heart.
"Oh, my sister asked me to come here. This is her resignation letter."
Lin Hai took out a folded piece of paper from his bag and handed it to Mu You.
"Resign…"
Mu You frowned and took a look. It was indeed a standard resignation letter, written by hand, and it was indeed Lin Xue's handwriting.
"What what? Sister Xue is going to resign?" Xiaoya was originally eavesdropping on the side of the container, but when she heard the news, she suddenly lost her composure and hurried out to ask.
"Yes, something happened at home, my sister couldn't get away temporarily, so I had to..." Lin Hai said.
"Ah? What's so serious, can we help?" Xiaoya blurted out and asked.
"Eh, this... I'm afraid, it's not very convenient..." Lin Hai was a little embarrassed, and didn't know how to explain it for a while.
While hesitating to speak, he suddenly saw a canary in the distance, fluttering its wings from the cage, and it landed on the front desk table, its eyes glanced at him a few times.
Lin Hai looked at Mu You strangely: "Master, isn't your bird afraid of running away if you leave it like this?"
"Cough, don't worry, it won't...Then what, show me your palm." Mu You said suddenly.
The reason why this request was made was because Vivienne had sent him a message after flying over just now, asking him to inject magic power into two acupuncture points on the palm of Lin Hai's palm for a try.
"Um?"
Lin Hai looked at Mu You strangely, not knowing what he wanted to do, but he obediently did so, put his right hand on the table and spread it out.
Mu You touched his palm and fumbled a few places in it.
He didn't know much about acupuncture points, and it was only under Vivienne's guidance that he finally found the exact location.
But this move is a bit strange in the eyes of outsiders.
Beside Xiaoya and Lin Hai both looked at Mu You with strange expressions. Lin Hai was even more embarrassed, and subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand: "Master, let go quickly, I am really not such a person..."
"Don't move!"
As a result, Mu You glared at him, and Lin Hai immediately gave up struggling.
After inputting some magic power, Mu You saw that Vivienne's movements changed a little, and he stopped looking at the opponent's palm, so he let go of Lin Hai: "How is it?"
"well…"
Vivian sighed, and transmitted a few words to him.
Mu You's face changed slightly after hearing this, he looked at Lin Hai in surprise, and asked, "Is there an elder in your family who is dying of serious illness?"
"Ah?" Lin Hai was taken aback, and blurted out: "How do you know?"
Then he thought about it, and didn't hide it anymore: "My grandma is seriously ill. The doctor said that grandma may not survive for a few days. My sister has been taking care of her at home recently, so she couldn't get away..."
Sure enough!
Mu You was not surprised. After thinking for a while, he asked again: "Does your grandma have a ring with the head of Pisces engraved on it?"
Lin Hai's complexion changed when he heard the words, he stood up abruptly, and hurriedly shook his head: "No, I don't know what you're talking about."
Mu You is a little funny, and your reaction is too self-deprecating.
"Okay, don't be afraid, I don't mean to harm you by asking this, take me to your house to have a look."
Through Vivian's explanation just now, Mu You already understood, no wonder Pisces' heir did not show up at the secret art conference, it turns out that Pisces is not dead yet.
Pisces not only survived, but also came to the earth, formed a family on the earth, and had their own offspring.
And Lin Hai is one of the descendants of Pisces.
"Ah, this..." Lin Hai didn't expect that Mu You would suddenly ask to go to his house, and was a little embarrassed for a while.
"I said I can save your grandma, do you believe me?" Mu You said.
"Ah? Master, are you serious?" Lin Hai looked at Mu You in shock.
"Forget it if you don't believe it."
"I believe it, I believe it! Master, come with me quickly, and I'll drive right away!" Lin Hai hurriedly changed his words, and ran out the door in a hurry.
"Xiaoya, look at the store, I'll go out." Mu You also followed out of the store, and gave Xiaoya a word of advice before leaving.
…
Mu You followed Lin Hai into the car, and Lin Hai immediately stepped on the accelerator and started on the road.
On the way, Mu You turned on the satellite phone, borrowed the information channel provided by the insiders of the Disorder Bureau, and checked the founder of the Lin family.
After a while, the search found the result he wanted.
殳颖秀, born in 1935, aged 87, married the founder of the Lin Group in 1976 and gave birth to a son, then…
There is actually nothing special in the information, no matter how you look at it, it is the life history of an ordinary person, but Mu You looked at it with subjective suspicion, and saw the problem at a glance. Born in 1935 and married in 1976, she was already 41 years old at that time, and she only got married and had children at this age... I can't say it's impossible, but it's rather abrupt in this resume.
Mu You guessed that this person might be the real Pisces. Her real age must be much more than what is stated in the information, and her name was probably changed after she came to Earth. At that time, the Internet had not yet risen, so it was easy to change her identity. .
At this time, he noticed that the direction Lin Hai drove was not the Shibei District where the Lin family was located, but to the suburbs.
Seeing that the surrounding environment is getting more and more desolate, and it seems that he wants to drive all the way into the mountains, Mu You asked doubtfully, "Your grandma lives in the mountains?"
"Yeah, my grandma doesn't like the atmosphere in the city, but she has a special liking for this big mountain in the suburbs. She contracted this mountain many years ago, built a house in the mountain, and has been living here ever since. "Lin Hai explained while driving.
While speaking, the car drove into the mountain road, and soon stopped in front of a vast house at the foot of the mountain.
Mu You got out of the car and took a look, and immediately realized that what Lin Hai said was really too modest. He built a house in the mountains. This is clearly a luxurious manor, the kind where a bus can be directly driven inside.
Mu You followed Lin Hai into the gate. There were many sentries and security guards along the way, but with Lin Hai leading the way, they all passed smoothly. No one came to question Mu You's identity from the beginning to the end.
After crossing a garden, the two came to a villa inside the manor.
This should be the place where Grandma Lin Hai lived, but there was no guard post here. Lin Hai led Mu You up to the second floor, opened the door and entered one of the rooms.
There were seven or eight men and women gathered in the room, most of them were middle-aged, and they seemed to be the elders of the Lin family.
Lin Xue was also in the house, sitting in front of the hospital bed, feeding medicine to the old man on the bed.
The one lying on the only hospital bed at this time was a white-haired old man, who had been emaciated to the point of skin and bones, with an oxygen tube inserted in front of his nose, and his body was covered with infusion tubes and various medical instruments.
The old man himself was staring blankly at the ceiling, motionless. Only when Lin Xue handed over a spoon, his lips would squirm, but basically he would spit out as much as he ate.
Lin Xue was still very patient and fed spoon by spoon, and immediately cleaned up with a towel if she spit it out.
As soon as the two of them entered the door, several people in the room looked over, and when they saw the figure behind Lin Hai, they were all taken aback.
One of the middle-aged men came over immediately, frowned and looked at Mu You, and said in a low voice, "Xiao Hai, who is this?"
"Second uncle, this is the master I invited to treat grandma!" Lin Hai said hastily.
"Nonsense! What time is this, how can you bring people home casually!" The middle-aged man frowned even deeper, and said displeased.
Mu You noticed, however, that when the two of them talked, even when they scolded, they kept their voices very low, for fear of disturbing the old man.
"Muyou?"
At this time, Lin Xue by the bed had already noticed Mu You at the door, and she was surprised, put down the bowl and spoon in a hurry, put the towel on the old man's chest, and walked towards him.
"Why are you here?" Lin Xue walked in front of the two of them.
"Sister, the master said that he can save grandma!" Lin Hai hurriedly answered.
However, at this time, the old man on the hospital bed has already noticed the restlessness in the house.
When her turbid eyes swept away and saw Mu You at the door, the old man froze, his pupils shrank suddenly, and suddenly became agitated. He stretched out his hand tremblingly towards the door, as if he wanted to grab something, and his throat There were hoarse whimpers in the middle, but they could not be connected into complete words.
Following her actions, all the medical testing instruments in the house started to fluctuate and sounded various alarms.
Everyone in the room was shocked, thinking that the old man had fallen ill again, so they hurriedly surrounded him.
"Grandma?"
Lin Xue was also taken aback, and hurried back to the hospital bed, but was held back by Mu You.
"Feed this to your grandma." Mu You stuffed the bottle of powerful purification potion to Lin Xue.
Lin Xue glanced at the blue medicine bottle in her hand, then carefully looked at Mu You's eyes, nodded, walked to the hospital bed, opened the bottle, and slowly poured the medicine into the old man's mouth.
The potion seems to have magical properties, not like a liquid, but like a gaseous condensate, which turns into blue air currents and sinks into the old man's body.
To everyone's surprise, the old man immediately fell silent as soon as the potion was ingested, and all the instruments around him that detected signs quickly returned to stability.
And then, something even more unexpected happened: the old man actually supported himself with his arms, sat up by himself, and spoke.
"Everyone... go... go..."
With a hoarse voice and intermittent syllables, it can be seen that the old man is still very weak, but it is a miracle in itself that he can still speak when all the doctors have concluded that the old man will not live for three days.
It was just what he said, but everyone present looked at each other in dismay: Tell them all to go out, is it because they want to be alone with this strange young man?
"I said...all...get out..."
The old man saw that everyone was still, and his tone suddenly became agitated again.
Now everyone didn't dare to disobey, they all hurriedly comforted the old man not to worry, and hurried out of the room at the same time.
"Xiaoxue, you should go out first too..."
When the old man spoke to Lin Xue, his voice softened a lot.
Lin Xue glanced at grandma, then at Muyou, nodded, silently exited the room, and closed the door.
It wasn't until there were only two people left in the room that the old man looked at Mu You, squeezed out a smile with some effort, and said a few words, "My child, I feel a familiar aura on you...you ...do you know...uh..."
The old man couldn't continue speaking halfway through, because she had already seen the canary emerging from Mu You's shoulder.
Canary flew directly to the hospital bed, stopped by the old man's hand, and said, "Al..."
Under this call, the old man was immersed in the emotions for half his life, and couldn't hold it anymore. For a while, he burst into tears: "Mr. Vivien... I knew that you are still alive..."
