Chapter 760: MARK OF MONGOOSE
Al answered the call and turned on the loudspeaker. He questioned, "Shin, what did you find out?"
Shintaro asked back from the other side of the phone, "Before that, tell me who is with you?"
Al glanced at his comrades. "With me... Carl and Osiris."
Shintaro was stunned hearing the answer. "What? Osiris? What is he doing there?"
Al shrugged. "He came here to see his baby."
Shintaro said, "He was given a task. I hope he finished it without any problem..."
Osiris interrupted him. "Of course I did. Now tell us what you found."
Shintaro disclosed what he had found. "...This is bad. You should capture the person who planted these bugs as soon as possible. The one who did it isn\'t the enemy of the Mu boy\'s mother..."
The four of them had a heated conversation for fifteen minutes.
Carlo got up from the sofa. "I\'ll look for the person before the Mu boy finds out. It will be a problem if he gets the culprit first. I can already tell who is behind this."
After he left, Osiris put down his bowl. He sighed. "To think that the enemy was after my baby and made a scapegoat her future mother-in-law... A clever move against the Mu boy but not against us. Isn\'t it too easy to deal with? Something is definitely wrong with this plan. Maybe the one who planned it was an idiot or I\'m thinking too much into this."
Al was silent. He was also in deep thought. He couldn\'t get the answer of the puzzle in his head. Thus, he stood up, took the bowls and went out of the room. He wanted to wash the bowls and clean his head at the same time.
Osiris yawned and laid down on the bed again. His eyes landed on Mu Lan. Her face was slightly flushed. He reached out his hand and touched her forehead. Her body was burning.
He instantly got out of the bed and headed towards the bathroom to soak a towel in the cool water.
When Al finished washing the dishes, he came inside the room and saw Mu Lan\'s forehead was covered with soaked towel. "Does she have a fever?"
Osiris replied in a solemn tone, "Yes, her temperature is rising. Should I wake her up to take medicine?"
Al walked closer. "Carl said that she would wake up on her own. It won\'t be good to wake her up before that."
Osiris asked, "He didn\'t say that she was going to have fever, did he?"
Al hesitated before answering, "...No."
"Carl isn\'t answering my call either. I\'ll wait a little bit then. If her temperature rises more than this, I will wake her up." Osiris out his hand under his chin.
Al got a telepathy message from Carlo. Al told Osiris, "Carl is calling me. Maybe he needs my help. I\'m going."
"Alright, don\'t forget to mention her fever to him." Osiris reminded him.
"Of course I won\'t." Saying that Al left.
After he left, Osiris remembered something. "Ah, I forgot to mention my mission to them. I guess I will tell them later."

Altan Yul went to the dungeon as Carlo asked him to. He found Carlo in the second cell. There was a woman\'s body lying there, a dead body. It looked like that the woman was tortured before death.
"...Did you kill her?" Al asked.
"No, I found it dead. But look what I found." Carlo bent down and removed the collar of the dress of the dead woman. There was a mark of mongoose on the cleavage of the dead woman.
Al commented, "Shin was correct as usual. But who killed her? Since she is a member of them, she wasn\'t an easy opponent. It has to be someone of their own team."
"How funny! I never thought that we would meet the two of them in here. They are looking for a war." Carlo\'s eyes glowed. His lips stretched but his eyes were smiling.
Al was curious. "Do you know who is the other one?"
Carlo nodded. "Yes, but I wonder how long they were here in this family. I don\'t think they can see the future. If they don\'t have someone with Juan\'s power, why were they here in the first place? What are they planning?"
Juan had the power to see the future. If the enemy had power like Juan, they would know that the precious child of The Cobra would end up here in the Mu Family. However, having the power to see the future was out of question. If so, then what was their objective to come to the Mu Family?
Al said, "You won\'t know if you don\'t capture that person."
Carlo glanced at Al. "That\'s true. Al, I have a task for you."
Al naturally asked, "What is it?"
Carlo replied, "You have to dig a grave."
"For this woman? I don\'t want to." Al stubbornly said. Who would want to dig a grave for an enemy who tried to harm your precious child?
Carlo shook his head. "Not for this one. There is a tomb nearby the castle. You have to dig out a dead body."
"What?!" Al was dumbfounded.
Carlo turned around to leave the cell. "Find the grave and dig out the dead body. I have things to do."
After he left, Al followed after him. He totally forgot what Osiris wanted him to say to Carlo.

Mu Feng was done with answering questions of the police. He got permission from Lu Feng\'s father, Doctor Lu to take Jing Sheng home. A VIP ambulance sent him back to the castle with unconscious Jing Sheng. The butlers carried the stretcher of Jing Sheng and took her to the unused room of her in the second floor.
"Tell the chef to cook something healthy. Mother is sick." Mu Feng instructed his maid.
"Yes, second young master." The maid bowed and left.
Qi Ying entered the room and said, "I heard what happened. How\'s mother-in-law? And what about Noel?"
