For some reason, as soon as Mu Ningxue walked into the room, Mofan had a bad feeling.
Perhaps it was the aura of the first wife. He had nowhere to hide if she caught him having any inappropriate thoughts!
"Have a seat, didn't we agree that you should greet me when you're here, and I'll help you settle down? You're being too polite," Mofan let out a hollow laugh as he served Mu Ningxue well, as if he was worried that Mu Ningxue would notice something fishy.
As a matter of fact, there was nothing fishy about it, but Mofan was definitely lying!
Mu Ningxue ignored him, while Mu Nujiao told Mofan what had happened at the National Training Hall.
Mofan slammed the table when he heard the story.
That was too much! If he was in Mu Ningxue's shoes, he would have broken all three of the old Egyptian's legs. It was only a duel between students, yet the old man was shameless enough to go so far!
While they were talking, a little girl barged into the room through the open door. She was wearing a clean white and blue uniform. She was holding a cup of red bean milk tea. Her cheeks were puffed up, and she was so adorable that anyone would have the urge to pinch her cheeks.
However, her eyes were not as pure and innocent as most girls. They were filled with a hint of sharpness.
"Ling Ling," Mu Nujiao was surprised. It had been a while since the little girl last came. Normally, she would be here for Mofan, as she was Mofan's assistant.
Mu Nujiao was very fond of Ling Ling. She had the urge to give her all the snacks in the fridge, but unfortunately, Ling Ling was never interested in her.
A room full of girls!
Mo Fan suddenly felt a sense of bliss!
"If it's not convenient for you, I'll come again next time," Ling Ling did not enter the room. She stood at the entrance.
"Tell me what it is first," said Mofan.
Ling Ling's return was most likely because of the bounty. Ling Ling, who had been going to school all day, was about to go crazy. She was a Hunter, a Hunter Master in Shanghai!
"Didn't you want a big order?" Ling Ling took off her shoes and threw the milk tea cup into the trash bin.
Mu Ningxue was also looking at her. She was secretly wondering why Mofan was talking about the bounty with a little girl who had just entered middle school.
"The Enforcement Union was originally in charge of this matter, but most of the members of the Enforcement Union are easily exposed, so the Enforcement Union simply issued a bounty to a few of the more qualified private Hunters in Shanghai, asking outstanding Hunters to eliminate this future threat. I guessed that you would be particularly interested in him, but, it's very dangerous." Ling Ling took out her notebook and opened a map of Shanghai's surrounding area.
Mofan noticed that there was a red irregular rectangular island on the map. It was located at the estuary of the Yangtze River. It was a huge estuary island.
"Isn't that Chongming County?" Mu Nujiao recognized the estuary island with a single glance.
"Mmm, after the Calamity of the Ancient Capital, Salan's influence in China was uprooted. Even Salan himself has fled abroad. The Enforcement Union has been trying to hunt him down. However, according to reliable sources, the reason why Salan was able to cross the border and escape abroad was probably because she left through Chongming County, "Ling Ling pointed at the Yangtze River estuary and said seriously.
Mu Ningxue and Mu Nujiao were stunned.
Why was it that the little girl in middle school's uniform was talking about the Black Vatican, and someone on Salan's level?
"Ahem," Mofan coughed, signaling Ling Ling to stop talking for now.
Mofan did not want anyone else to be involved in the Black Vatican's matters. The Black Vatican's methods were infuriating, and impossible to guard against. Mofan was never afraid of them when he was alone, but if the people around him were involved, he would feel uneasy.
"Are there no other bounties?" Mofan did not want to listen to her.
It was only suitable for him to complete this mission alone. If he were to involve Mu Ningxue … or Mu Nujiao, who had already heard the details, Mofan would not be able to accept it.
Ling Ling shook her head and said, "The other bounties are all very low. This is the highest bounty. Under the pressure of the whole society, the Enforcement Union has been trying their best to eradicate the Black Vatican. This time, in order to … "
"That's enough. Why does a little girl like you need to know so much?" Mofan stopped Ling Ling from continuing.
Ling Ling saw that Mofan was being fierce to her. She was smart enough to realize something, so she stopped talking.
"Let her continue." Mu Ningxue had already sensed that the little girl in front of her was not simple. At the same time, she was more concerned about the remnants of the Vatican.
"The Black Vatican will be dealt with by the Enforcement Union, so we don't have to worry about it. By the way, I was just about to tell you a piece of good news …" Mofan changed the topic.
"Do you think I won't care?" Mu Ningxue stared at Mofan, her emotions clearly changing.
How could she not care? It was the Black Vatican that had destroyed Bo City and her clan. On top of that, due to Mu He's involvement, her clan was now facing a huge crisis, to the point where they had to change their names!
Because of this incident, many people had quarreled, split up, and left without saying goodbye. Mu Zhuoyun did not even dare to see her during the few days she had been back in the capital. He used the excuse that he was too busy to come and see her. Mu Ningxue did not even see a single one of her family members … they had all gone into hiding, not daring to see the sun.
"I don't even have a family name anymore. If it's the Black Vatican, I'm willing to accept it even if there's no reward!" Mu Ningxue said seriously.
Mu Ningxue knew that Mofan, Zhang Xiaohou, Mubai, and the others had fought against the Black Vatican in the Ancient Capital. Before that, Xu Zhaoting had sacrificed his life in exchange for the name of a Deacon. If they could fight against the Black Vatican, so could she. Many of her clansmen had sacrificed themselves!
"Ling Ling, you should head back first," Mofan said to Ling Ling.
"Oh," Ling Ling did not say anything further. She turned around and left.
As the door closed, the atmosphere in the room suddenly changed. Mu Ningxue stared at Mofan. Her eyes were shaking vigorously.
She could sense that the two were not in a good mood. She tactfully went upstairs and closed the door.
"You don't have to make the decision for me," Mu Ningxue said to Mofan.
"Of course I can't make the decision for you, but I have the clue. Ling Ling is my partner. If I say I'm not going to accept it, then I'm not going to accept it," Mofan said firmly.
"You …" Mu Ningxue was so angry that she was speechless.
"Listen to me, don't worry about the Black Vatican, at least not now," Mofan said sincerely.
