My Wife is a Goddess: 99 Secret Kisses

Juan ignored him and said, "Tell everyone what you found out."

Romano reported, "Oh, I talked to several animals and birds. They said that some people were having a sacrificing ceremony for the devil and a girl was almost sacrificed. But something suddenly happened and all the birds and animals became unconscious. When they regained consciousness, they saw that girl was on the riverbank and some rescue teams came looking for her. Finally they found her and took her away along with the heads of those dead people."

He took another bite and chewed the meat with great delight. Then he continued, "And those people are working under the heir of the Ge Family. You guys might know him. His name is Ge Chen."

"Ah, yes, I saw him with that Mu brat when they were in Italy," Mark said.

"So, he is that Mu brat's friend." Carlo scoffed. To him, all those who associated with Mu Liang were bad guys.

Shintaro knew his working style and asked, "What was he doing there? Doesn't he always send his men to missions like this?"

"It's because the girl who was being sacrificed is his wife." Romano casually said.

"He is married!" Shintaro exclaimed. "When did he get married?"

"Get all the information about him and inform us all," Juan instructed.

"I'm on it." Shintaro was busy taking care of Mu Lan and the area around her. Who knew that there was someone doing something behind his back?

Twenty minutes later, he gave them everything he had found about Ge Chen.

"Ah, he married this girl!" Mark exclaimed.

Carlo said, "Yes, I know her too. So, her name is Fa Xue Lin. She is the kid's best friend. She looks like a middle school kid."

"I saw her in Italy. She took care of missy's mother-in-law Jing Sheng. I think she is a good psychiatrist." Mark commented. "But when did she get married? She didn't look like the type who would get married. Did her family force her to marry him?"

"Was it just a coincidence that she was taken as the sacrifice?" Pedro asked in his usual poker face.

Shintaro replied, "Since it was this Ge brat's team that found forty-one dead bodies, my program is trying to hack into their server. Their security is high but not high enough. It might take a few hours. After I find out, I'll let you know."

"Did you dig out her past?" Carlo asked.

"I let my bot (programing robot) do it for me. It was very easy to find out. I've sent whatever you need."

Mark spoke while reading, "So, she joined this Ge brat's hand and opposed both families. Impressive! She was cornered and now fell on this brat's trap. Does she even know what he does for a living?"

"With her personality, I don't think she does. She dislikes rich people." Carlo commented.

Altan Yul finally opened his mouth. "Hey, I just noticed something. This girl's lifestyle is weird. All data about a month from three years ago was wiped out completely. Your bot said that she was kidnapped three years ago but then there's nothing that happened after that. When she came back, she had a psychological issue but she didn't go to the hospital and stayed in the dorm day and night."

"Hey, you are right! That's suspicious!" Liam frowned.

Shintaro ran his fingers over the keyboard. Half a minute later, he frowned deeply. "For some weird reasons, I can't access it. There is no information regarding that. But, I did find something."

"What is it?" Antonio asked.

Shintaro told them everything he just got. The room became silent. They felt sympathy for Xue Lin.

Mark spoke first, "She had suffered a lot. I hope she has a happy life ahead."

"Yeah…"

"I wish the same…"

They all agreed.

Orio said, "Aha, look what I found. She threw a devil worshiper in prison five years ago and that guy tried to harm her. He was a fugitive; his name was Balthazar."

"So it wasn't a coincidence," Juan said. "I have a feeling something more will happen around this girl." He gazed at Carlo and said, "Carl, you are going to China to keep an eye on her."

Carlo said, "I once found her suspicious and followed her to China. I was there for a week and sold ramen day and night. Other than being a glutton, she is nothing special. I don't think it's worth wasting my time on her."

Pedro shared his opinion. "If that unnatural incident has anything to do with her, then we must keep an eye on her."

Juan said, "I also want to know why she was left alone and others were cruelly killed. Those killers were definitely her friends or maybe they didn't want unnecessary killing but it's still suspicious. We need to know if she is those killers' friend or foe and what was their main purpose – ending the devil worshipers or saving her."

Carlo wanted to protest, "But–"

Antonio told him, "Keeping an eye on her won't kill you. You can always sell ramen and babysit her. That's the easiest job if you ask me."

Carlo bickered. "No one is asking you. Moreover, the kid's wedding is coming. I'm not going anywhere before that."

"…" Except for Juan, others were also thinking the same thing. They didn't want to do anything except for something urgent before Mu Lan's wedding. They were waiting for her big day for a long time.

Juan could tell what they were thinking without reading their minds. He smiled secretly and looked at Osiris. "You have to go to the Four God's temple to investigate what caused the seal to break."

"Huh? But I need lots of sleep before baby's wedding!" Osiris protested.

"It's urgent," Juan said. Though he wasn't harsh, they all respected and feared him.

Osiris sighed and agreed. "Fine, I'll go tonight."

Carlo said, "Since she is currently in the hospital, I don't need to check up on her. I'll wait for her to recover. Shin, knock me when she gets better."

"I will do that." Shintaro agreed.

"Romano, come back," Juan instructed. "Yicheng, stay there and keep an eye on the surroundings. Furthermore, keep an eye on the Ge boy. Let us know if you find anything important about the investigation his team is doing regarding this little girl's matter. Go to Italy a week before the wedding."

"I will do whatever you say." Luo Yicheng bowed.
