Chapter 379 - Checking the Corpses

The atmosphere in the car was very quiet. Because Xu Huan had forced himself in, Xu Huan was the one driving now. Mo Zhu and Huo Xuan sat quietly in the back seat.

Not long after the car started, Huo Xuan recalled the injuries of the people from the Dark Forces. He took out a stack of documents from the briefcase he carried with him and gently placed it on Mo Zhu’s lap. He said softly, “These are the autopsy reports of the staff previously. Before you see the situation with your own eyes, look through the documents briefly and understand them.”

Mo Zhu nodded. She picked up the information and started flipping through it quickly according to the page numbers.

The subordinates in the Dark Department were all dressed in black. Apart from their eyes, they were all wrapped up tightly. Therefore, Mo Zhu could not obtain any useful information just by looking at the report of the external injuries of the corpse and the examination report of the X-ray.

Just as she was about to finish her check of the reports, her sharp eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of a thin reflective line on the photo of a corpse marked with a code number at the end.

Following this discovery, Mo Zhu carefully compared this photo to the light that shone in from the car window. A few minutes later, she recognized that this person was the subordinate who was sent flying by the black-robed youth last night and fell in front of her.

Mo Zhu lowered her eyes thoughtfully and rubbed her palms slightly. She handed the photo to Huo Xuan and said softly, “Find the corpse with this code number. Let’s go and see this person first!”

Huo Xuan nodded and sent the code to the staff. “Sure.”

The car sped along and soon arrived at the place where the corpse was kept.

Following the lead of the staff, the person Mo Zhu had pointed out was already lying flat on a wooden table.

She took two steps forward and briefly checked this person’s pulse. After a while, Mo Zhu frowned slightly and started thinking quietly.

As she had expected, this person’s heart meridian was shattered by the black-robed youth’s palm strike. Furthermore, not only was the black-robed youth’s internal energy deep, even the control of his internal energy had reached the point where it only damaged the person’s heart meridian and not his ribs.

Seeing Mo Zhu standing quietly beside the corpse, Xu Huan could not help but ask anxiously, “How is it, Little Bamboo? Is there anything wrong with this corpse?”

As there were many corpses in the morgue, the smell was a little unpleasant. They had come over wearing just simple masks. Thus. Just as Xu Huan opened his mouth, the stench seeped in through the gaps of the mask into his mouth. He felt nauseous and almost vomited on the spot.

When Mo Zhu heard this, she did not speak. Instead, she turned to the other side of the corpse and continued checking.

A few minutes later, she found the silver needle that reflected the light in the photo. Without any hesitation, almost the instant she saw it, Mo Zhu pulled the silver needle out of the man’s body.

Then, an unexpected scene happened. The corpse that was originally lying on the bed and had been diagnosed as dead for a day suddenly twitched for no reason. Furthermore, under the unblinking gaze of the three of them, it twitched for a full minute.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Xu Huan was instantly frightened. He couldn’t care less about the strange and unpleasant smell. His body trembled as he asked Mo Zhu, “This is… Little Bamboo, is he a zombie?”

Mo Zhu looked up and glared at Xu Huan angrily. She explained as if she was mocking him for not having seen the world, “Last night, just as his pulse was broken, I used these silver needles to seal the major acupuncture points on his body. Therefore, the last trace of life in his body was temporarily stored in my body. He was lucky. Now, it seems that this trace of life should be able to save his life!”

Mo Zhu's mother remarried after her father went missing, and she had lived in the countryside with her elderly grandmother ever since. The girl who had no parents wanted to protect herself. Therefore, to avoid getting bullied, she had turned wild since she was a child—she played truant, fought, and drank. There was nothing she did not know how to do. She was a problematic student in the eyes of her teachers, a big sister in the eyes of her classmates, and a hooligan in the eyes of her acquaintances. When she was eighteen, her birth mother retrieved her to live at her stepfather's house. Everyone in the village claimed that she was going to live a happy life in the city, that her mother had not forgotten that she had a daughter here. "Mo Zhu, the Huo family is one of the most powerful families in the country. It's your good fortune to replace your younger sister in marrying into the Huo family. You have to cherish this opportunity," explained her mother patiently as she held Mo Zhu's hand. Mo Zhu's eyes were filled with sorrow. At that instant, she knew why her mother thought of her. Inviting her over to the city to enjoy life was simply a figment of her imagination—she was simply an exploitable piece of trash that her mother could sacrifice. The Eldest Young Master of the Huo family fell severely ill recently. He did not just develop a twisted personality, but also became violent and cruel. His face had been completely ruined and he had only two years left to live. Mo Zhu's younger sister was supposed to be Eldest Young Master Huo's fiancée, but the ruined young master was no longer a suitable match. Fearing the Huo family's influences, her mother did not dare to cancel the marriage, thus she sent Mo Zhu under the bus to protect her younger sister. However, was Mo Zhu truly just a useless simpleton who knew how to smoke, drink, and fight? No! That was simply a disguise she used for self-defense since she was a girl without parents. After marrying into the Huo family, she stopped smoking, drinking, and fighting. She became the best daughter-in-law a mother-in-law could ever have; the best wife a husband could ever have. What never occurred to anyone was she no longer flunked in her studies. In fact, she transformed into a straight-A student. Half a year later, she enrolled in the best university in the country and majored in specialized medicine. Determined to become an excellent doctor, she cured her husband's illness completely in merely two years. That handsome and suave Eldest Young Master Huo returned. After Huo Xuan's recovery, he allocated a huge budget and held the biggest wedding of the century for Mo Zhu. During the grand wedding ceremony, Huo Xuan announced during his speech, "In this lifetime, there are two people I'm most grateful for other than my parents. One of them is my mother-in-law. Thank you for despising me after I fell ill and forcing my wife to marry me in her younger sister's stead. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have met the most important person in my life! The second person must be my wife! She never despised me when I was at my lowest. Instead, she takes good care of me. She's an angel sent by God, and she has saved me with her forgiveness and kindness, granting me a second chance at life."
