Chapter 1006: Gu Ying Is in the Mutant Department

Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Shuxue, clearly shaken, followed her mother, Guo Min, away from the scene.

Meanwhile, Gu Yang examined the wall of the funeral parlor but didn’t see the female undertaker she had encountered earlier.

She inquired with a staff member about her.

The staff member, upon hearing the description, responded, “You must mean Zhuang Zhuang. She’s a contract worker here and started with us some time ago.”

“Her body makeup skills are impressive. Even if a deceased person’s face is severely burned, she can restore it to look as if they were alive…”

Realizing he might be oversharing with the family of the deceased, the staff member abruptly stopped. “Sorry, I shouldn’t have gone into so much detail. Why are you looking for her?”

Gu Yang shook her head. “It’s nothing serious.”

She was simply curious about the hypnotist.

After Old Master Gu’s funeral, Gu Zhaoming began distributing the remaining assets according to Old Master Gu’s will.

With Old Master Gu gone, Gu Zhaoming now managed the old mansion, making it difficult for Gu Zhao’an, Gu Zhaoye, and others to return.

Gu Jin had also received updates about Team Blue Whale’s Gu Ying from Xiao Yize.

Gu Jin had hoped to enlist Xiao Yize’s help in finding them, considering his official capacity would make certain tasks easier.

However, she was surprised to learn that Gu Ying was in the Mutant Department.

At the Grass-Raising Internet Cafe, Gu Yang was relaxing with Big Orange, stroking the large cat.

The big orange cat, with its enormous, adorable washbasin, seemed to smile contentedly in its sleep.

Feng Jue scoffed at Big Orange, “It’s as fat as a pig. Sister, let me carry it—it’s too heavy.”

As Feng Jue reached out to take the cat from Gu Yang’s lap, Big Orange bared its teeth, ready to bite. Gu Yang quickly pressed down on the cat’s round, furry head, calming it.

Cao Cuo watched the interaction with a smile.

Once Gu Jin finished explaining, Cao Cuo nodded in understanding. “No wonder you couldn’t find Double Image. It turns out he joined the Mutant Department.”

The Mutant Department was an official agency, and information about key individuals within it was kept confidential.

It wasn’t impossible for Gu Jin and Feng Jue to hack into the Mutant Division’s network, but with Xiao Yize involved, their activities would likely be detected by the authorities, which would create significant complications.

Feng Jue inquired, “What did Xiao Yize say?”

Gu Jin replied calmly, “Gu Ying joined the Mutant Division a few years ago. However, he hasn’t been back for some time. Xiao Yize mentioned that he’s currently on a secret mission. He’s safe for now, but won’t return for a while.”

Gu Yang nodded. “As long as he’s safe.”

Since the mission was classified, even Xiao Yize couldn’t disclose any details.

Gu Yang then asked, “What about Shen Ran?”

Cao Cuo responded, “Shen Ran contacted me once two years ago, but he cut off communication after that.”

Feng Jue asked, “What did he want from you?”

“He needed some special spice oils,” Cao Cuo said.

Cao Cuo had a passion for growing flowers and herbs, particularly spices. He maintained a spice cultivation base in the suburbs of the capital, focusing on rare spice crops.

On Gu Yang’s birthday, Cao Cuo had gifted her several rare spices and essential oils. Gu Yang had also given him a bottle when she was mixing perfume.

“Does Shen Ran know how to make perfume?” Gu Yang asked, surprised.

Making perfume required meticulousness and patience, qualities that seemed at odds with Shen Ran’s fiery and impulsive nature.

Cao Cuo explained, “Shen Ran doesn’t know how to make perfume, but his sister, Shen Qin, does.”
