After a pause, thinking of the pill, Mo Zhu added, “As for refining the pills, I’ll start preparing for Auntie after I’m done with this competition!”
Upon hearing Mo Zhu’s words, Chen Man was very satisfied with the girl’s obedience. She looked up at the clock hanging in the living room and saw that it was already late. She let go of the girl’s hand and gently pushed Mo Zhu, urging her, “It’s getting late, Xiao Zhu. I won’t delay your rest. You must be
tired after a busy day. Hurry up and go back to your room to sleep.”
A good night’s sleep.
The next day, it was Wednesday. As it was the day of the preliminary round of the Mathematics competition, Huo Xuan woke up early and prepared breakfast. He planned to send Mo Zhu to school a few minutes earlier than usual.
Kang Wan and Jiang Yu were still living in the Huo family, so everyone quickly packed their things and got into the car as soon as they were done eating.
It was early today and Xu Huan happened to be free. He came to the Huo family for breakfast and followed everyone into Uncle Zhang’s car.
Unexpectedly, just as everyone sat down in their seats, a piercing beeping sound suddenly came from the back of the car for no reason.
Upon hearing this voice, Xu Huan suddenly turned around and looked into Huo Xuan’s eyes. He immediately said with a hint of worry, “Brother Huo, what’s this strange sound? Why does it sound a little like…”
Before Xu Huan could finish, Mo Zhu, who had been sitting quietly beside Huo Xuan since she got into the car, suddenly opened the door and got out of the car. She walked straight to the back of the car and forcefully opened the trunk of the car. Instantly, a small box suddenly appeared in front of her.
Seeing how agitated Mo Zhu was, Huo Xuan and Xu Huan naturally sensed that something was wrong. The two of them followed closely behind her and got out of the car. When they saw the small box, their eyes widened in unison.
“Brother Huo, from the sound and appearance, this thing should be a small bomb, right?” Xu Huan rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
Xu Huan’s voice traveled into Kang Wan’s ears through the open car door. She got out of the car in shock and shouted in a panic, “What did you say? A bomb?”
Kang Wan had been raised like a princess by the Kang family since she was young. Naturally, she had never seen such a scene, especially when she was suddenly faced with a small bomb that might bring her life danger. Her face instantly turned pale, and her lips trembled in fear.
Upon hearing Kang Wan’s shout, Mo Zhu pinched the space between her eyebrows with a headache. She raised her hand and casually fiddled with the colorful electrical wires that were wrapped around the back of the box. She asked in a low voice, “Do you have any tools in the car for me to use?”
Following Mo Zhu’s words, Uncle Zhang quickly found a small box of tools and handed it to the girl. A moment later, Mo Zhu calmly put on her gloves, casually picked up a pair of scissors and began to seriously check the messy electrical wires behind the small box.
Seeing how serious Mo Zhu was, Xu Huan didn’t interrupt her. He raised his hand worriedly and poked Huo Xuan, who was standing quietly at the side and not saying a word. He said anxiously, “Brother Huo, do you think Little Bamboo knows how to handle these things? This is a matter of life and death!”
When Huo Xuan heard this, he frowned slightly and replied, “It shouldn’t be a big problem. When have you seen her take over something she’s not confident in?”
Upon hearing Huo Xuan’s words, although Xu Huan was a little worried, he still gritted his teeth and decided to believe Mo Zhu.
Kang Wan watched the scene in front of her. She was afraid that Mo Zhu would accidentally trigger a device to detonate the bomb. She quickly ran a few steps and casually found a cover in the courtyard to squat down and hide.
A few minutes later, Mo Zhu clapped her hands, calmly took off her gloves and closed the toolbox.
As the small box was still ticking, she raised her eyebrows and said coldly, “This bomb is fake..”
