Chapter 516: He’s Coming Back
When Mo Zhu heard this, she smiled and replied, “Oh? Aren’t you used to integrating into all sorts of rescue organizations in the world? What brought you back? Or did you accept a big order after you decided to return to the country?”
When the young man on the other end of the phone heard Mo Zhu’s words, he laughed heartily and explained, “It’s not a big order. I’m just tired of staying here. I’ll return to Country Z to visit you and bring you some new things to broaden your horizons!”
Knowing that the man was knowledgeable, Mo Zhu recalled what she was discussing with Huo Xuan and the others just now. She straightened her expression and changed to a serious tone as she said, “Yun Jing, the time for you to return to the country is just right. I do need your help with something.”
That’s right. The person who called Mo Zhu now was Yun Jing, who had been a wandering doctor in another country. Seeing that Mo Zhu’s tone had suddenly become serious, he stopped teasing the girl. He immediately frowned and asked carefully, “What’s wrong?”
Mo Zhu lowered her eyes and thought about how to speak. A few seconds later, she said concisely, “Many unknown new types of poison have appeared in Beijing recently. Under the effect of this poison, Old Master Cheng created a creature similar to the zombies that appeared in movies and television dramas.”
“Zombies?” Yun Jing asked in disbelief.
Mo Zhu nodded and added in a low voice, “That’s right. This creature’s body temperature is very low. Although it moves like a living person, from its appearance, it looks more like a corpse that has been dead for a long time.”
After pausing for a few seconds, afraid that Yun Jing would not understand what she was saying, Mo Zhu lowered her voice and explained in detail, “That group of people had pale faces, and there were many dark red or bright red livor mortis spots on their skin. Their bodies vaguely emitted the smell of rotting meat.”
“More importantly, they don’t feel anything. Even if they suffer a fatal blow, they won’t feel any pain!”
After Yun Jing heard this seriously, he raised his phone and was silent for a few seconds. A moment later, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly raised his voice. “In that case, I suddenly remembered. Previously, I participated in a rescue activity of a local native in South America. I seem to have heard about the technology to create such a creature from a resident!”
…
“K, don’t worry. I’ll make a call and contact my friends who are still working there. I’ll tell you immediately if I find any useful information!”
When Mo Zhu heard this, she heaved a sigh of relief and replied, “Alright, this matter has a lot of implications. You and your friend have to be more careful. Asking about the background of that group of people is one thing, but the most important thing is to find out how to deal with them!”
After saying this and receiving a response from the other end of the phone, Mo Zhu hung up the phone with a lot on her mind.
For the next few days, other than running around the calligraphy teacher’s side, Huo Xuan was busy investigating if there were any traces related to the old master of the Cheng family.
Mo Wu, Mo Qi, and the others were not idle either. Ever since Mo Zhu’s identity as Almighty K was exposed, they had become as familiar with the Love Pavilion as a family. They checked the news together every day. With the help of the people from the Love Pavilion, their efficiency was much higher than before.
A week passed and unknowingly, it was the weekend.
As she attached great importance to this competition, Jiang Yu knocked on the door of the small mansion early in the morning.
Mo Zhu, who had been busy for a week, happened to have nothing to do. Knowing that Huo Xuan and Jiang Yu were going to the exhibition hall to participate in the calligraphy competition, she stepped into the car and joined in the fun.
As it was a national calligraphy competition, the notice and statement of the exhibition hall had been released early on. The venue was decorated very seriously, allowing people to know clearly that a large-scale competition was being held inside from afar.
After registering according to the competition process, the judges and staff present were very efficient. They briefly explained the things to take note of in the competition and bluntly picked up the microphone to announce the start of the competition.
