After a pause, thinking of the pill, Mo Zhu added, âAs for refining the pills, Iâll start preparing for Auntie after Iâm done with this competition!â
Upon hearing Mo Zhuâs words, Chen Man was very satisfied with the girlâs obedience. She looked up at the clock hanging in the living room and saw that it was already late. She let go of the girlâs hand and gently pushed Mo Zhu, urging her, âItâs getting late, Xiao Zhu. I wonât delay your rest. You must be
tired after a busy day. Hurry up and go back to your room to sleep.â
A good nightâs 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 Zhangâs 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 Xuanâs eyes. He immediately said with a hint of worry, âBrother Huo, whatâs this strange sound? Why does it sound a little likeâ¦â
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.
âBrother Huo, from the sound and appearance, this thing should be a small bomb, right?â Xu Huan rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
Xu Huanâs voice traveled into Kang Wanâs ears through the open car door. She got out of the car in shock and shouted in a panic, âWhat did you say? A bomb?â
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 Wanâs 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, âDo you have any tools in the car for me to use?â
Following Mo Zhuâs 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 didnât 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, âBrother Huo, do you think Little Bamboo knows how to handle these things? This is a matter of life and death!â
When Huo Xuan heard this, he frowned slightly and replied, âIt shouldnât be a big problem. When have you seen her take over something sheâs not confident in?â
Upon hearing Huo Xuanâs 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, âThis bomb is fake..â
