【1v1, Doted On, Fiery! Awesome! Sweet!】
Second Master Jin indulges in worldly pleasures, his life motto being simply to have fun. When a certain cat lunges at him, he lightly dodges, "...
This time, Tan Zheng and Ye Mingshi were also shocked!
Ye Mingshi said, "That's right, this is too strange! Back then, the Arctic rescue was commanded by Grandpa Gu, right? Apart from those few bastards from the Song family who survived, no one else did. It's not like that Cat's mother also went to the Arctic! These two things... should just be coincidences."
At this moment, Mu Jin suddenly spoke up, "Gu Zeyi, did you go to the Song family?"
Gu Zeyi immediately said, "Young Master Jin, with you urging me like this, how could I not go? This morning at six o'clock, before dawn, I went fishing with Old Master Song! We were frozen by the river for three hours before I could even speak to him."
However, I did gain some insight. Professor Song said that the location and time of the sea eye's appearance should follow a pattern, because it always appears in a sea area near the Arctic Circle. It's just a pity that the pattern of its timing has not yet been grasped.
Even that incident eight years ago was purely accidental.
Ye Mingshi asked, even more confused, "Wait, explain yourself clearly! Start from the beginning! I don't understand. Even if there really is a sea eye, what exactly is this sea eye? You seem to know?"
Gu Zeyi said seriously, "What exactly is the Sea Eye? That's the real secret. The old patriarch of the Song family has always believed that the Sea Eye is a kind of energy vortex in the universe, and that through this vortex, humans may be able to travel to another parallel world without being harmed."
Ye Mingshi ruffled his braid and said, "If I hadn't received nine years of compulsory education, I might have believed it!"
Tan Zheng also said, "Gu Zeyi, is this an official joke?"
Gu Zeyi said with a serious face, "I'm not joking. Back then, no one knew whether the people who were caught in the sea eye were alive or dead. Even their bodies couldn't be found. In the files, there are several people's memories of seeing people who were swept out of the sea eye."
This matter involves too much information that cannot be disclosed, so it's normal that you don't know about it.
Ye Mingshi and Tan Zheng exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes. However, they quickly realized why Gu Zeyi knew so much!
It turns out that Mu Jin had been investigating the cause of Mu Xi's death all along...
Ye Mingshi said somewhat unconvinced, "It would have been better if you had said so earlier, I could have helped too."
Mu Jin only asked Gu Zeyi to investigate; that's too distant.
Fortunately, they were very careful and didn't mention Mu Xi in front of Mu Jin.
Gu Zeyi said, "What are you talking about? You? You're useless at everything, but you're the best at eating. Telling you is pointless."
Ye Mingshi: "Pah, I'm the number one prince in Beijing. Being handsome is number one. Unlike you, you old fox, you're number one in cunning. Jin Er's idea is right. You're the best at this kind of undercover and spy drama. You can even pry open Old Man Song's mouth. Awesome, I admire you."
Tan Zheng glanced disdainfully at the two who were already attacking each other, and steered the conversation back on track, "So, Jin Er, you suspect that the 'sea eye' that Mama Cat mentioned is the same 'sea eye' that appeared in the Arctic?"
Mu Jin finally nodded, his voice a little hoarse, "Not only that, but most importantly, she said that the sea eye is about to open, and we should stay away."
Upon hearing this, Ye Mingshi and Gu Ze immediately stopped bickering!
Ye Mingshi slapped her thigh, "That's right! Auntie did say that! No wonder you were acting strange, so you were keeping this on your mind!"
Ye Mingshi felt that he had solved the case.
Gu Zeyi said, "How could that be? Wasn't she sick? If she said the sea eye was about to open, how could she know when it would open? Old Song went to the Arctic three times to find the sea eye, but even he couldn't be sure of the time."
Tan Zheng also rationally said, "It's difficult to reconstruct the events in the Arctic from the archives. We all know what the Song family is like, so it's unlikely we'll hear the truth from them."
As for the cat's mother... she's sick now. These snippets of information may not have any real meaning; it's very likely we're overthinking it.
However, Jin Er glanced at Tan Zheng and said, "On the contrary, I doubt the existence of the sea eye, but the cat's mother has confirmed it."
Tan Zheng continued, "Jin Er, from what you're saying... do you still want to verify this matter? I advise you not to. Xiao Xi's matter happened so many years ago. Even if you can't let it go, you can't go and die. Besides, do you really want to anger your grandmother to death?"
Mu Jin closed her eyes and said, "I can never get over it. Xiao Xi died for me."
The other three fell silent. This topic was truly... unsolvable.
Ye Mingshi cleared her throat again, bravely breaking the somber atmosphere, "Jin Er, allow me to say something, you are not alone now, you still have Maomao! If you die, Maomao will love someone else."
Ye Mingshi really knew how to change the subject! Mu Jin reacted quickly and kicked him, "Are you hoping I'd die? When did I say I was going to my death?"
Ye Mingshi rubbed his weathered knees, wondering if they would develop into old-age ailments. "You look just like me..."
Just now, he clearly looked like he was going to destroy the world.
Mu Jin leaned back on the sofa and said, "You don't need to look at me like that. I don't believe Xiao Xi is dead, but I won't impulsively go looking for the Sea Eye either. I called you here so you can think about how to cure Jiu Maomao's mother if she really got sick because of the Sea Eye."
Gu Ze touched his face. Although he didn't know why he had become so saintly, he suddenly relaxed. "You...you're really scary."
Tan Zheng also said, "So it was all about the cat after all."
Ye Mingshi said, "If the external cause of Aunt's memory trauma is the 'Sea Eye,' then she may have really been to the Arctic. In that case, we should carefully investigate Aunt's whereabouts over the years to find out when she went there and whether she had any companions. Finding clues from other places might be faster."
Also, we should tell the cat about this; maybe the cat can get more information from the auntie.
Mu Jin said, "You can talk about it, but don't mention Xiao Xi."
Ye Mingshi was a little puzzled, "What good would it do to tell them?"
Mu Jin said, "I said don't mention it, so don't mention it."
Fearing that Mu Jin would revert to her previous behavior, Ye Mingshi immediately said, "Fine, I won't mention it then."
Mu Jin suddenly looked at Tan Zheng and asked, "How about Extraordinary Entertainment?"
