Reborn: The Godfather Has Fallen For Me

Chapter 918: Fire

“Doctor! Doctor! It’s a fire! The lab is on fire!”

The assistant knocked on Ouyang Jinguo’s bedroom door anxiously.

Ouyang Jinguo ran out anxiously with his clothes on. It was already 3 o’clock in the morning. How could something like this happen all of a sudden?

“Safe! Is there anything wrong with the safe?”

“The safe is specially fireproof. The only problem is that the research materials are gone.”

“What?”

Ouyang Jinguo was shocked. He hurried out with his assistant. The research materials were gone. It was really terrible. Fortunately, the only antidote was in the safe. Otherwise, it would have been really terrible.

Now, he didn’t know how much of the information he still remembered. He could only hope that some of the information could be saved.

When they arrived at the laboratory, there were very few people here because it was an independent building in the suburbs. It was also for a quiet research environment. When they arrived, the fire had just been extinguished. Just by looking at the outside, one could tell how thoroughly the fire had been burned.

The huge safe was carried outside alone. The layer of green paint on the surface had already melted. The doctor and Old Man Yao also rushed over at this time.

They were better than Ouyang Jinguo. As traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, many things were in their minds. However, for Western medicine practitioners, many of the chemical components and other things were recorded in the computer.

At this moment, Old Man Yao and the doctor saw Ouyang Jinguo’s pained expression and couldn’t help but comfort him:

“Natural and man-made disasters. Jinguo should be at ease.”

“I can’t accept this. There are a lot of materials in there that I’ve worked hard on for many years. Also, the Banxia’s extracts have all been burned. This... This... if the antidote wasn’t in the safe, it would really be over.”

“What? The Banxia is gone?”

“Yes, it’s gone. It’s all gone.”

Ouyang Jinguo was crying profusely. He was already so old, but now his life’s work was burned to ashes. How could he not cry profusely? His heart ached inexplicably.

The assistant had already walked over to open the safe. The black wooden box was still intact, and the black antidote was quietly placed in the middle.

“Professor, the antidote is fine.”

“Hey, take it. Take it. Send it back overnight so that it won’t be too late.”

Ouyang Jinguo didn’t care about this anymore. He waved his hand at the assistant and stood in the distance looking at his lab that had been burned to the ground.

In the distance, Ouyang Le, who had seen everything, gave a weird smile...

“Master, there’s news from the lab that there’s a big fire. Fortunately, the antidote is fine, and it was delivered overnight.”

“There’s a big fire? What’s the cause?”

“The wires were short-circuited. That lab has been there for more than 10 years, and many of the wires are old.”

“What a coincidence!”

Yan Kuan was obviously not sure of the reason.

“Check it carefully.”

“I understand, but this antidote is kept in the safe. No one except Ouyang Jinguo knows the password. The most important thing is that all of Ouyang Jinguo’s research materials, including the Banxia, have been burned to ashes.”

“So this antidote is the only one?”

“Yes.”

“Ouyang Le went to M Country?”

“Yes. She had an argument with Ouyang Jinguo in the afternoon. Ouyang Jinguo has already said that he won’t care about her.”

“When did she leave M Country?”

“Not yet. She played in the bar all night. She has an alibi.”

“It’s not that simple. Check it carefully.”

“Yes.”

As soon as the bodyguard left, Yan Kuan sat on the desk, deep in thought. The fire came right at this time. All the research materials and the Banxia were burned to ashes. What if there was a problem with the antidote?

He didn’t doubt that there was a problem with the antidote. What he was worried about was that the antidote might not be able to cure the Suoyin Flower Tears. Moreover, all the information was gone. If the information was gone... was there really nothing in the world that could cure the Suoyin Flower Tears?

“Go and fetch the doctor and Old Man Yao back.”

“Yes.”

When she returned to her room, Shen Xiaoxiao was still doing rehabilitation exercises. After all, she had been unconscious for nearly two months. It would take a certain amount of time for her body to recover. During this period of time, Yan Kuan had done almost nothing but accompany her every day.

However, Shen Xiaoxiao’s rehabilitation ended very early today. At this moment, she was sitting in the room of the two children and tidying up their backpacks from when they entered the mountain.

These two backpacks belonged to Da Bao and Little Treasure. After the accident, Shen Xiaoxiao immediately fainted. Therefore, this bag had been placed in the room of the two children for a long time, so Yan Kuan naturally would not go and tidy it up. He knew that Shen Xiaoxiao did not want others to touch these things.

The things in the children’s bag were still what she had prepared for them earlier. Food was the majority. However, because they had gone through a long journey, there was nothing left to eat. They still needed one or two small toys, there was also a small wooden bead.

“This is Little Treasure’s bag?”

“Yes, look at the wooden bead. He still likes to collect these round things.”

“Yeah, he told us earlier that he thought that the red gem ball was very beautiful and wanted to give it to you.”

“Yeah, right. Wait, do you remember that Little Treasure wanted to give me something before he left?”

Shen Xiaoxiao seemed to have thought of something. Although she had been unconscious for more than a month, it did not mean that all her memories had disappeared. At least, she still remembered what the child said.

At this moment...

“Are you saying that this is the bead?”

“It’s very possible. This child has always been so cute.”

Shen Xiaoxiao did not have any other thoughts. Since the child had said that he had a gift for her, she had rummaged through her bag and could only find this small wooden bead that looked similar to a gift.

However, no matter what it was, Shen Xiaoxiao was extremely happy.

“19, are you really going to make us wait for 10 years?”

Shen Xiaoxiao looked a little lonely. If they waited for 10 years, would the children still remember them at that time?

“No, 19 also said that if we were fated, they would naturally meet in advance.”

“Sigh...”

“Don’t sigh. When you’re better, we’ll walk around. Maybe we’ll have an opportunity to find the children.”

“Did Dark 1 enter the mountain?”

“Yes, that’s the last feedback we received. He entered the mountain. I guess he wants to wait for 19 to come back.”

“Sigh.”

“Master, Han Jia is in the company and wants to see you.”

The secret guard suddenly reported at the door. Shen Xiaoxiao and Yan Kuan were stunned. Han Jia? Wasn’t she taken away by Third Uncle? Why did she come back?

“Don’t worry about it. Find Shen Congwen and throw her to him.”

This was a rare kindness from Yan Kuan. If it wasn’t for Shen Congwen, he would never let Han Jia go.

Shen Xiaoxiao knew that Yan Kuan had already shown mercy, but she still said to the secret guard,?“If she makes a scene again, take her down directly.”

“Yes, your subordinate understand...”
