Chapter 749 766: The Girl Misunderstood - 5 Updates, Requesting Monthly Tickets
Luo Aimiao gave Lin Mu a glance, didn't fuss over anything, put on her white coat and left the room. Lin Mu closed the door and sat on the bed. The poison in Zhou Xun and Xiong Xiaoxiao wasn't too deep, Lin Mu just needed to use the silver needle for cleansing, and they'd be cured!The three sat on the bed, Lin Mu slightly tugged down the clothes of the two ladies, then pierced the silver needle into their chests. This silver needle was mainly to inhibit the poison from circulating through the heart's blood, otherwise, it would easily cause severe poisoning reactions.
To pierce a needle into the chests of these two fair-skinned girls was truly hard to do, it was like spilling a drop of ink on a blank piece of paper, simply a waste! Lin Mu quickly inserted a few more silver needles, and following the needles, soon there was a flow of dark-red blood!
Fortunately, the two girls were not deeply poisoned, their assailant had not been ruthless, just making Zhou Xun and Xiong Xiaoxiao faint was enough! As for who the assassin was, and why they would want to kill Xia Yuyi, it puzzled Lin Mu. No matter who it was, there was no need to target a weak girl like Xia Yuyi, right?
Watching the blood slowly seep from the silver needles, Lin Mu frowned as if he had discovered something, could it be? Poison was a specialty of the Dark Night Sect, so could the person who tried to kill Xia Yuyi be from the Dark Night Sect? Considering the situation now, Lin Mu couldn't figure out who would want to harm Xia Yuyi. Given that Zhou Xun and Xiong Xiaoxiao were poisoned and unconscious, and that the assailant was female, Lin Mu suspected it was likely someone from the Dark Night Sect!
But why would they want to harm Xia Yuyi? Could it be?
Lin Mu remembered that the Golden Leaf Sect Leader had passed the position to Xia Yuyi, could it be because of this matter? Xia Yuyi had violated someone else's interests, so they killed the Golden Leaf Sect Leader and now wanted to silence Xia Yuyi as well?
Of course, this was only Lin Mu's speculation, guesswork without evidence. If someone wanted to kill Xia Yuyi, Lin Mu couldn't think of another reason other than the issue of the sect leader's inheritance, there didn't seem to be anything else!
If we follow this line of reasoning, the perpetrator should be obvious—the only one competing with Xia Yuyi for the position of sect leader was Senior Sister Qing Feng, because she was the only one qualified for the role! But all of this was just Lin Mu's speculation, merely thoughts in his mind, without evidence, he couldn't speak recklessly, since guesswork does not equate to the truth!
But Lin Mu sensed it was unlikely to be Qing Feng, Lin Mu had met Qing Feng several times and she even visited the hospital to see her. When Xia Yuyi was injured, Lin Mu could see Qing Feng was genuinely worried! This seemed like a sincere emotional response, not fake!
This indicated the relationship between the two was probably good, so logically it shouldn't be Qing Feng! But if it wasn't Qing Feng, then who could it be? Why would someone want to harm Xia Yuyi just as she was about to inherit the sect leader position?
If this were merely a coincidence, it would be too much of a coincidence! Of course, these were just Lin Mu's personal thoughts, just his own understanding. After all, they were people of the Dark Night Sect, if it wasn't Qing Feng, unjustly suspecting someone was quite unpleasant!
Lin Mu glanced at Zhou Xun and Xiong Xiaoxiao lying on the bed; the two might not wake up until tomorrow morning, and Xia Yuyi's safety was still an issue! So Lin Mu quickly called Earth Wolf, asking him to personally bring people to protect Xia Yuyi's safety!
After the call, Lin Mu left the room, and outside the office, Luo Aimiao was still standing at the door!
"Hey, girl, why are you still here?" Lin Mu asked, glancing at Luo Aimiao standing at the door.
"Where else should I stand if not here? I'm already off duty." Luo Aimiao gave Lin Mu a look.
"Nurse girl, I'm afraid you can't stay here tonight, my two friends won't wake up for a while, and your bed is quite small, so I'm afraid you'll have to be a bit inconvenienced." Lin Mu smiled.
"Not at all, just have to take me home, hehe!" Luo Aimiao laughed.
"Alright, but please wait a little, I need to go to the ward to check on my friend, chat for a bit, then I'll take you home, alright?"
"Sure, I'll go with you!" Luo Aimiao nodded.
Lin Mu and Luo Aimiao went to Xia Yuyi's ward together!
"Brother Lin, how are Xiaoxun and Xiaoxiao?" Xia Yuyi asked worriedly.
"They're fine, they'll wake up tomorrow, they're resting in another room, are you okay, Yu Yi?" Lin Mu asked with concern.
Xia Yuyi shook her head, "Don't worry, Brother Lin, I'm fine, luckily you arrived in time, otherwise I might not have survived!"
As Xia Yuyi spoke, an unusual expression flashed in her eyes!
"Yu Yi, the person who tried to assassinate you was likely a woman, and also skilled in using poison. I suspect it's a traitor from the Dark Night Sect who attacked you, and the person who killed the Golden Leaf Sect Leader and you might be the same!" Lin Mu said, looking at Xia Yuyi.
Xia Yuyi's eyes were peculiar, she shook her head, "Impossible, within our sect, the sisters have a very good relationship, it couldn't be someone from our sect, I'm confident there are no traitors in the Dark Night Sect!"
Lin Mu looked at Xia Yuyi, noticing her emotions fluctuating slightly, but it seemed she was hiding something as well!
"Alright then, I'll help you investigate this matter, and I've already asked Earth Wolf to come over for your safety, so just focus on recuperating!" Lin Mu didn't press further, some things were better left unsaid to avoid affecting Xia Yuyi, and frankly, Xia Yuyi's behavior had already given Lin Mu a subtle answer!
"Okay," Xia Yuyi nodded.
"Then take care and rest well, I'll visit you again tomorrow!" Lin Mu said.
Lin Mu could see that Xia Yuyi wanted to say something but was hesitant, so he didn't press on. When she's ready to speak, she will, even if he doesn't ask her!
