Under the starry sky without moonlight, Mo Mo slowly got out of the car at Yan Mu's signal.

Tonight was the day they planned to enter the underworld together to find out the truth.

Zhao Wenting did not come out to greet them. Instead, Pei Ming, with a poker face, came out and led everyone who had arrived at the yard of Zhao Wenting's villa at the same time into the hall.

The fact that Mo Mo was framed and Zhao Wenting unilaterally assisted in the investigation and poured resources into it against the wishes of the Bureau of Supernatural Powers did not cause gossip in society. His abilities since childhood and the strong foundation of the Zhao family gave him a good foundation as a person, as if even if he chose to do so, society would judge him as fulfilling his duty as "the master of this girl."

After returning, Mo Mo often saw him in various reports and media. He was a higher-level presence than the fashion and business circles. After all, people realized that the Ability Bureau was able to protect their healthy lives. He appeared in front of the camera every time in a different suit or dress. He was like a superstar emitting dazzling light among a bunch of high-level management of the Ability Bureau.

There were no more misunderstandings between Mo Mo and him, but there was no further development. They just maintained a distance that was sometimes close and sometimes far, but they both knew each other well.

"Hey? Didn't you say that this was a setup by Zhao Wenting himself? Where is he?" Song Tianjiao looked like she had drunk some wine, her cheeks were flushed, and her tall and slender body was standing somewhat twisted. She pointed at Pei Ming who was walking in front and asked.

"The young master has a meeting that has not yet ended, and he asked me to welcome everyone in." Pei Ming answered expressionlessly.

"Hey! That's really interesting."

"Sister Tianjiao, my master is quite busy on weekdays. Although he hasn't taken over completely, many things are still handled by him..." Mo Mo hesitated, but finally started to explain.

"The young master has always been strict. Ordinary people are not allowed to drive into this house, especially friends from the hidden city, who are more mysterious." The butler glanced at Song Tianjiao beside him, and made Song Tianjiao understand her current situation instantly without any loopholes.

She shut her mouth in dismay and stopped complaining to avoid being kicked out.

"This must be Miss Mo Mo."

As soon as he entered the hall, the cautious butler Ding was very friendly to Mo Mo.

"Butler Ding, the young master did not plan to have people from the Zhao family's old residence participate in this activity. Could it be that..." Pei Ming looked at Butler Ding carefully, and glanced at the two servants he brought behind him.

"That's right. The personal safety of the Second Young Master is related to the future fate of the entire Ability Bureau. We are here to screen personnel in the name of the Master." Butler Ding's eyes were like thorns as he scanned the four members of the 'Miracle' team and Song Tianjiao from the Hidden City, as if he wanted to see a hole in these people.

"What are you still standing there for? Search everyone for any contraband first."

Before everyone could react to the shock of the situation, Steward Ding had already ordered people to start searching them.

Adhering to the principle of 'less trouble is worse than more', Mo Mo signaled everyone with his eyes to wait and see what happens.

After returning home, Zhao Wenting finally understood the real reason why the meeting was postponed. Although he looked unhappy, he said nothing for the comfort of Mo Mo and Yan Mu.

Under the watchful eye of Steward Ding, the two attendants tiptoed and carefully examined, shuttling back and forth between Zhao Wenting and the crowd.

"Miss Mo, could you please take down your bone whistle so that we can take samples?" one of the attendants asked in a soft voice.

"Do you want this too? This is me..." Mo Mo frowned slightly. She didn't expect that they would check it to such an extent.

"Get out!" Zhao Wenting, who had been standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in silence for a long time, suddenly turned around and shouted with an unbearable momentum.

The servant looked at Butler Ding, then quietly went downstairs with Butler Ding.

Before leaving, Steward Ding instructed as if nothing had happened: "Second Young Master, please take care of yourself. We will be waiting outside the villa for the results of your trip."

Even after people left, everyone still felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect there would be such an arrangement at the old house..." Zhao Wenting's eyes, which were usually full of arrogance, were now staring at Mo Mo with some pain, and he began to explain.

"It's okay, we all understand. In fact, you don't have to go down with us. After all, you have a special identity." Mo Mo said the last sentence more quietly.

"Let's stick to the original plan. Let's get ready first." Yan Mu turned around and gave instructions to everyone.

[But... I don't want you to take risks alone anymore. ]

Zhao Wenting looked at Mo Mo silently and did not tell her his true thoughts.

There were several moments when he was thinking about what Mo Mo wrote in his diary:

[What if... I bravely express my love and bravely stay together, what will happen? Will I really die? But... since I discovered my feelings for her, it seems that the position of the heir to the Supernatural Bureau is not that important. But... my missing mother is still missing, and I am unwilling to give up like this. ]

Many times, he would fall into this kind of mental shackles.

The night was as thick as ink. Liang Chuxin's trip this time was different from the previous ones. She no longer targeted Mo Mo and only moved within her area. Instead, she took the initiative to choose the longest route to explore, and quickly returned to the gathering place according to the instructions of the Pink Spirit Butterfly.

I saw Yan Mu and Ouyang Xiaoming had arrived early.

"It's very strange. I didn't see any ghost messengers or gods' messengers. Even the flowers on the other side of the Yellow Spring have withered. I always feel that something is wrong with this place." Yan Mu looked around, feeling confused.

"Where is Mo Mo? Why hasn't she come back yet?" Zhao Wenting was the first to ask about Mo Mo's whereabouts.

Everyone looked at each other, but no one could answer.

"Sister, I just saw you followed the pink butterfly here, and so did I." Song Tianjiao pointed at the fluorescent butterfly powder on Liang Chuxin's shoulder, and seemed to have discovered something.

"I also followed the pink spirit butterfly here, otherwise I wouldn't be able to find my way with such a strong aura of resentment. Could it be that there is butterfly powder on my body too?" Ouyang Xiaoming said, turning his neck to look at his shoulder.

"It's true. Yours is on your back." Yan Mu pointed at his back and told him the answer.

"Since we all followed the Pink Spirit Butterfly here, it means that all this was premeditated. Mo Mo hasn't come back yet, maybe he got lost without the Pink Spirit Butterfly to lead the way." Song Tianjiao stood in the same place. She no longer looked tipsy as before. Instead, her eyes were very clear at this moment.

"The only chance to apply Psylocke powder to each of us is then." Yan Mu said, and turned back to look at Zhao Wenting. There was also the fluorescence of Psylocke on the side of his black suit.

"Then why don't you apply it only to Mo Mo? And our plan to go to the underworld was originally known to only a few of us, plus Pei Ming who didn't come down." Liang Chuxin frowned, and her words made everyone present fall into deep thought.

First, what is the attitude of Mr. Zhao towards Mo Mo now? Second, who leaked their plan?

"Now is not the time to be suspicious. The air here is thin. Let's go back first." Zhao Wenting walked towards the exit with a gloomy face.

"Then shouldn't we wait for Mo Mo?" Song Tianjiao was a little confused, and she shouted at the top of her voice.

"Let's go back the same way. If Mo Mo is really trapped, I believe she would want us to do this." After all, she has the ability to be reborn after death, but we don't. Yan Mu looked at Song Tianjiao sincerely and said.

"Okay then." Even though the loyal Song Tianjiao felt that it was wrong to abandon her teammates like this, she still thought that Yan Mu and the others might have other plans, so she followed them.
