It's his business how much money he has; she still wants to make money, and she wants to make more than him! Her ultimate goal of supporting Ah Jin cannot waver.
"Are you tired?" Mu Jin asked her. "If you are, lean on me and rest for a while."
The cat had just woken up, but the inhibitor she had just been injected with was very effective, and she still couldn't control her fatigue, so... she unceremoniously pounced into Mu Jin's arms.
"I want to sleep. How can I sleep so much?"
Mu Jin leaned back, adjusted her posture, and used it as a cushion. "Go to sleep if you want."
"Did Jiu Yunchi and my dad come by?" Cat asked, her eyelids already heavy.
Mu Jin patted her head. "Okay, leave all those things to me. You just need to go to sleep."
"oh."
Almost immediately, the cat fell asleep.
After that, Maomao kept sleeping, in a daze, completely out of her control. Sometimes she could feel that there were many people around her and hear Mu Jin talking to her, but she just couldn't wake up.
After a few days, the pressure around Mu Jin grew increasingly low, and the atmosphere around her became increasingly somber.
That day, Qilin and Jiu Shiyi came together with the reagents they had just prepared.
"This is a relief medicine, boss. Should we give it to your second sister-in-law?" Qilin asked.
“Everyone reacts differently to the medicine. Second Sister-in-law’s situation is not unexpected. The fact that she was unconscious for a long time means that her antibodies are strong. Eldest brother, don’t worry. You were unconscious for an even longer time back then.”
Qilin was frightened by Mu Jin's current depressed state. He was not abusive or angry, and he took care of many things. Everything was arranged very well, but he himself was too indifferent.
"Unless you develop a drug that can be injected into cats, you don't need to bring anything else," Mu Jin said coldly.
He was very rational now. He knew that the cat would be unconscious for a long time before waking up, but he was worried about whether the suppressant could completely suppress the cat.
Qilin and Jiu Shiyi went back.
Gu Zeyi arrived shortly after, saying, "I found some things about Ziying and Zeng Bo. They have an organization with quite a few people under them. However, these people usually don't show their faces. They have been researching mutated drugs."
One of them had worked as a researcher at Kunwu, and it was he who stole the mutation drug that Kunwu had finally developed.
Zeng Bo and his group have been in Japan all along, and they have been researching the sea eye. Including Zi Ying, these people are not simple. Their goal seems to be... the sea eye.
I suspect they're connected to the sea eye. Perhaps some of them have entered it. As for whether that's true or not... maybe you can ask Maomao when she wakes up.
"I see."
Several more days passed, and the cat still hadn't woken up, keeping Mu Jin on edge.
That night, he spent the entire night reviewing the experimental data sent by Qilin, and only after dawn did he manage to take a short nap on the sofa.
But the cat on the bed suddenly stirred, its heavy eyes snapping open!
The cat squinted, adjusted its eyes to the light, and then suddenly sat up!
Mu Jin, who was in a light sleep, also noticed the movement instantly. He opened his eyes and saw that the cat was awake. A look of ecstatic joy appeared on his face. He strode over and said, "Cat, you're awake! Look at me and tell me, where does it hurt?"
The cat stared ahead for a long time before slowly turning its gaze to Mu Jin, "Ah Jin..."
"I am here!"
The cat touched Mu Jin's face, blinked hard, and then looked at him clearly. "Ah Jin, I..."
"What's wrong? Tell me, don't scare me." Mu Jin naturally noticed that the cat was acting strangely.
The cat said, "My eyes... have become so bright, like I'm wearing binoculars."
Mu Jin wasn't surprised by her words, but asked anxiously, "How far can you see?"
The cat looked out the window. "If there are no obstacles, I can probably see... more than a thousand meters away."
Mu Jin touched her eyes and immediately comforted her, "Don't be afraid, what else is there besides this?"
The cat said, "I want to go swimming."
"I'll take you there." Mu Jin immediately picked up the cat and went there.
The apartment has an indoor swimming pool, and Mu Jin quickly put the cat in the water.
The cat dived underwater and swam around several times, not wanting Mu Jin to worry. Although she wanted to swim some more, she quickly swam back and lay on the shore watching Mu Jin.
"Ah Jin, I'm fine, don't worry."
Mu Jin brushed the wet hair from her face and asked, "Why do you want to swim?"
The cat said, "I just feel like I should live in the water... Ah Jin, am I going to turn into a fish?!"
She remembered the scales she had seen on Zeng Bo's body. Could those be fish scales? Was the injection Zeng Bo gave her the same medicine he used himself?
Thinking of this, the cat hurriedly pulled open her clothes.
"What's wrong?"
The cat quickly said, "Let me check if I have scales! Those things are so ugly!"
"Don't worry, it hasn't grown," Mu Jin said.
The cat rubbed itself for a while, then realized it wasn't there. "How did you know?" it asked.
“I check on you every day, of course I know.” Mu Jin thought for a moment, then asked, “Is there anything else that's bothering you?”
Cat shook her head, looking at Mu Jin, "No, Mu Jin, I'm fine now. I feel energetic, better than ever before, and..."
"And what?"
Cat, bracing itself against the shore, suddenly leaped up and tackled Mu Jin to the ground. "Besides, I have the strength now!"
