Before Lin Xue could answer, Mu You had already started to show puzzlent.

He looked at Zhao Qian: “Isn’t she soone you introduced?”

“?

No, I haven’t had ti to promote your business!” Zhao Qian was awkward.

When Mu You had begged her for help, she had just put it at the back of her mind.

The two of them looked puzzledly at each other for a while before they simultaneously shifted their gazes to Lin Xue.

“How did you find this place?” They both asked in unison.

Lin Xue pushed up her glasses and calmly explained in four words: “It’s a long story…”

“Then take your ti!”

Zhao Qian wrapped an arm around Lin Xue’s shoulder, laughing: “You’re really sothing.

You returned to China without even giving a heads-up.

We haven’t seen each other in four or five years, right?

We have to catch up today!”

Lin Xue didn’t refuse, but instead turned to look at Little Ya next to her: “Little Ya hasn’t eaten yet, right?

Co with us.”

“?” Little Ya was taken aback.

“Yes, sweety, join us.

The more, the rrier.” Zhao Qian was quite familiar, grabbing one hand of Lin Xue and already beckoning Little Ya with the other.

“But, I have to watch the store…” Little Ya looked at Mu You, feeling a bit overwheld.

“What store?

You guys don’t have any business here, do you?”

“…”

The blunt truth from Zhao Qian stung Mu You and Little Ya, leaving them speechless.

The key was that she even leaned in to stir the pot.

She said, “Mu boss, can I borrow these two beauties for a bit?

You don’t mind, right?”

“Go ahead, go ahead!”

Mu You waved his hand dismissively, thinking to himself that they should hurry up and leave.

The three of them chatting here was ruining his gaming ti!

Watching the three girls chattering away happily as they left the store, Mu You finally felt relieved.

He quickly closed the door, put up the closed sign, went back to his room, opened his backpack, and dived into the backpack space.

Having learned from the sll of dicinal herbs filling the room in the morning, this ti he planned to refine dicine directly in the backpack space.

He started the ga and clicked on the ‘Magic Fireplace’ text.

A marble fireplace over a ter high and more than three ters long appeared in front of him.

There was a smooth and flat table on top, and there was an exhaust chimney on the side of the table, which was connected to the arched fireplace below.

There, so unburned firewood and charcoal ash were piled up.

Mu You moved all the laboratory equipnt from the basent into the backpack, and chopped so firewood from the tree where Chocobo was kept.

He lit the stove and a glimring blue-green Magic Fla appeared from the top of the magical partition.

“Amazing!”

Mu You was very curious about how an ordinary fla could be transford directly into a Magic Fla through a partition.

But there was no ti to delve into it now.

It was ti for refining dicine.

He fixed the handgun in the distance and laid out bottles and jars on the stove.

Mu You focused, and once again activated the barrier, and formally began refining according to the previous steps.

It went reasonably well.

After retracing his steps four or five tis, the sixth ti, a finished Healing Ointnt finally ca fresh out of the oven.

Looking at the light green paste in the Crucible, Mu You was so moved he could cry.

Finally, it wasn’t black, and more importantly: it didn’t stink!

In a rush, he poured the paste into a jar and quickly opened the ga to look.

[You have obtained Healing Ointnt: A mundane Healing Ointnt, made by blending the essence of plants and herbs.

After use, it continuously heals external wounds for a minute, recovering up to 200 health points.]

Indeed, the full version!

Mu You sighed in relief, finally showing a little smile on his face.

As long as he had this first success, he could mass-produce it afterwards!

But it wasn’t over yet.

Mu You put away the ointnt and imdiately started the second refining.

However, this ti, in the stage of adding dicinal herbs, he poured in an extra small cup of Divine Wine to test its effect.

Either his luck had exploded, or the Divine Wine itself was working, but he achieved success on the first try.

[You have obtained Healing Ointnt (Excellent Grade): A Healing Ointnt that emits a mild fragrance is made by blending the essence of plants and herbs.

After use, it continuously heals external wounds for 30 seconds, recovering up to 300 health points.]

Excellent Grade!

Mu You’s eyes lit up.

Indeed the quality had improved, from ordinary ointnt to excellent grade ointnt.

The effect had also changed from ‘recover 200 points in one minute’ to ‘recover 300 points in half a minute’, and even the sll had beco fragrant.

It was an all-around upgrade!

“This wine can still be used about five or six more tis…”

Coming back to his senses, Mu You glanced at the remaining wine in the bottle and estimated that about 25 milliliters were poured into the last cup.

The effect was outstanding, but he didn’t know yet if the dosage could be reduced further.

He’ll have to find ti later to experint and seek the most appropriate proportion.

Saving a bit here and there certainly wouldn’t hurt.

Of course, the best way would actually be to learn the art of winemaking directly.

However, it was a skill honed by its old master over an entire lifeti, and Mu You really couldn’t be sure if he could learn it.

Shaking his head, Mu You continued to imrse himself in refining dicine.

Too bad ti in the barrier was limited, only able to be activated for a maximum of one hour per day.

Given his speed of making the Healing Ointnt every ten minutes, he could only produce five or six batches per day at most.

After crafting another batch of Healing Ointnt, he ran out of barrier ti.

Mu You didn’t force himself to continue refining.

After all, his current failure rate was still quite high, succeeding only once every four or five attempts.

His stash of herbs and plants couldn’t withstand this kind of attrition.

He logged into the ga and continued to gather herbs on the mountains.

After exhausting his energy, Mu You logged out.

Without taking a breather, he took Zhao Qian’s card, hailed a cab to the Era Cute Pet Care Base, and planned to settle the matter of purchasing a pet that day.

The Era Cute Pet Care Base was located in the suburban south of the developnt zone, sowhat remote yet a place attracting a large number of visitors every day.

Mu You had visited a few tis before, but each ti he was blocked at the entrance.

Today was no exception.

The pet cubs’ day out, which happened once a month, had long since attracted rchants from all over the country, lined up in a long queue at the entrance.

Luckily, Mu You ca with connections today, so he didn’t have to queue along with the masses.

He went directly to a special channel on the other side of the gate.

The entrance over here was much less crowded.

There was only a young girl, engrossed in her phone while sucking on a lollipop, sitting behind the registration desk.

When Mu You approached, the girl finally raised her head.

She looked at his attire and asked, confused, “Do you have a VIP card?”

“I don’t have a VIP card, but will this do?”

Mu You took out the application card Zhao Qian had given him earlier.

The girl took it over, glanced at it and quickly realized, “Oh, you’re that Mu You, right?

The one Qian ntioned before…”

It seed that Zhao Qian had indeed arranged things beforehand.

The girl didn’t ask him for a mbership card, but instead handed him a registration board, “Then you fill in your information on this and go straight in.”

Mu You didn’t think much of it and quickly filled out his details with the pen and paper provided.

But halfway through, he stopped abruptly, his gaze shifting to the line of information above.

“Lu Yao, female, body temperature 36.8, reason for entry: helping stray dogs, check-in ti: 15:36, check-out ti: 15:55, phone number: 139xxxxxxxx.”

There was nothing inherently wrong with the information in this line.

What did stand out though was the handwriting!

It looked strangely familiar to him.

Mu You quickly had an idea, and hurriedly reached into his pocket to take out a crumpled note.

It was the note that had been under the USB stick the day he got the ga installation package.

He unfolded the note and compared it with the handwriting on the registration paper.

Surely enough, stroke after stroke, the two were almost identical.

They clearly seed to have been written by the sa person.

Mu You’s expression turned grave.

He quickly pointed at the na on the board and asked the girl, “Who is this person?”

The sudden serious reaction from Mu You startled the lollipop girl.

She looked at the na he was pointing to and said, “Lu Yao?

Oh, she’s a young lady who frequently cos here to help stray cats and dogs.”

“A young lady?”

Mu You’s mind clicked, and he quickly asked further, “What does she look like?

How old is she?”

“What does she look like…

um, I’ve forgotten…” the lollipop girl pondered for a mont and said.

“Forgotten?”

Mu You was startled, “Didn’t you say she cos here often?

How could you forget?”

“Indeed, it’s strange…”

The lollipop girl tapped her head in frustration.

Her eyes carried a hint of confusion, “I see her so often, but why can’t I rember her face…

weird…

uh, what did you ask just now?”

The confusion on the lollipop girl’s face dissipated suddenly, and the last sentence was directed at Mu You.

“Hmm?

I was asking about the girl who registered before .” Mu You gave her a puzzled look, thinking this young girl was a little strange with her disjointed responses.

“What girl?” The lollipop girl gave him an even stranger look.

“It’s this one here, the one who registered before …Damn!”

Mu You could only hold up the register to show her, but halfway through his words, he abruptly stopped.

A chill ran up his spine!

When he unintentionally looked at the register, he realized that the line of information above was gone, vanished as if it had never been there.

The line on the register had turned into a complete blank…
