Mu Feng went to grandfather Mu Cheng's chamber. He found Mu Lin's dead body on the floor. Blood was dripping out of her mouth. Grandfather Mu Chen was on the bed. He was unconscious. Two female bodyguards were there. They were talking to Mu Liang. Also, there was another man with Mu Liang on the spot. Mu Feng didn't see him before.

Mu Feng directly asked about Mu Lin's death, "Was it poison?" He didn't care about the unknown person right now.

Mu Liang replied, "Yes, she killed herself by eating cyanide right in front of me."

When the female bodyguard opened the door for him, he entered the room. He thought that his grandparents were in the bedroom. He didn't knock the door before entering the bedroom. He had to be shocked after seeing Carlo hovering over Mu Lin on the floor while his hand was gripping on her neck and Mu Cheng was lying on the bed. Mu Lin was telling something to Carlo as he forced her by grabbing her neck tighter. He was using his power to make her speak. But when Mu Liang came, Carlo got distracted and Mu Lin took the chance to bit down the cyanide that was inside her mouth and died instantly.

When Carlo entered the room and when he attacked Mu Lin and Mu Cheng, was surprisingly unknown to the female bodyguard who was outside the room guarding the couple inside. She didn't notice anything unusual. The bodyguard almost shot Carlo who was in the room uninvitedly hovering over a dead body. Mu Liang commanded not to. The bodyguard was puzzled but obeyed.

Mu Liang instructed Mu Feng, "Take care of grandmother's dead body."

"…Um… that's not your grandmother. She is an imposter." Al came out of nowhere and declared.

Mu Liang and Mu Feng glanced at him. They didn't know how to react to this sudden development of the new plot.

Mu Feng got over the astonishment and asked, "What do you mean by that? Where is our grandmother then?"

Al answered while rubbing off the dirt from his clothes, "Your real grandmother was killed by this imposter long before your parents got married. Her body was buried in your grandfather's flower garden. Irony? Or cruelty? I'm not sure. But to think your grandfather watered the garden and walked there everyday without knowing that his beloved wife was buried there and living with another woman… This is sure scary."

When Al found the dead body, he let Carlo know by telepathy. Carlo also told him what he found out from the imposter Mu Lin. She told him how she easily killed the real Mu Lin after she did plastic surgery and took over her position.

Mu Feng grabbed Al by his shoulders. "Do you know what you are saying?!" He roared. He couldn't believe the person he spent time with wasn't his real grandmother but an imposter, a fake.

Al calmly said, "I left the dead body in the grave after finding it. You can take it to the autopsy if you want. There is nothing much left though."

Mu Feng's expression twisted. "Who are you people?"

Al smiled and scratched his head. "Ah, did you not know? I was recruited by first young master. I'm first young mistress's assistant."

Carlo frowned. "Do you think this is the time to laugh?"

Al flinched. "Ah.. no…." He looked confused and a little sad as is he was wronged. He looked completely innocent.

The Cobra members must have taken acting lessons when they became part of the team.

Mu Feng glanced at both of The Cobra members doubtfully before talking to his brother, "I'm going to the garden." After that, he glanced at the female bodyguards and commanded, "Follow me."

"Yes, sir!" They said in unison and followed after him out of the room.

Mu Liang became alone with two Cobra members. He asked Carlo, "What did you find out about this imposter?"

Carlo sat down on the sofa and explained, "Al found out bug in every room of this castle, so we sent one of it to our comrade. Then he called us to know what he had found…"

An hour before…

Shintaro called and told his three comrades, "...This is bad. You should capture the person who planted these bugs as soon as possible. The one who did it isn't the enemy of the Mu boy's mother but The Mongoose."

"What?!" Altan, Carlo and Osiris exclaimed in unison.

The Mongoose were The Cobra's sworn enemy. They were at each other's throats since the very beginning when their teams were formed. Their animosity was unavoidable as they both thrived for power. However, one team used it for good reasons, another one used it for bad reasons. If they tried to kill Jing Sheng and Mu Lan, then their real target could only be Mu Lan.

Osiris put his right hand under his chin. He commented, "If that's the case, Jing Sheng is only a scapegoat. Their real target is my baby."

"But for them to enter the Mu Household, before the kid and the Mu boy got to know them, there's something fishy about it." Carlo spoke.

Al said, "Maybe their target is the powerful Mu Family, however since kid entered the household, they recognized her and found her as a threat and that's why they wanted to eliminate her." He was in deep thought. "But how did they recognize her?"

The Cobra never let their identity know. If the two team ever came face to face by accident, they would have covered their faces. Not even the team leader had any idea who the other person was. However, if they had power like Juan to see the future or power like Carlo to read mind, they would know.

The Mongoose knowing Mu Lan's face could be the worst thing that ever happened to The Cobra.

"What are we going to do now? Their whole team might know the kid's face." Carlo solemnly spoke.
