Cultivation Pet Shop-Chapter 827 True Identity (3)
A week after the fire, Lin Fan walked into the office like nothing was wrong, but this time there was a little girl that followed him.
When Xia Liu saw this little girl, he couldn't help being surprised since he had never seen this little girl with him before.
However, since that other little girl and that old man had disappeared, he had been quite worried about Lin Fan. Lin Fan had seemed quite close to those two and now that they've suddenly disappeared, he was sure that Lin Fan must be hurt.
But he was also worried that Lin Fan was going down the wrong path since he showed up suddenly with this new little girl…
He was worried that Lin Fan might be getting into weird tastes and that would be a bad sign for their business…
But Lin Fan just ignored him as he brought this little girl with him wherever he went.
He introduced this little girl to them as Xin'er, a girl that he had found and adopted.
It was clear that many of his subordinates had things to say about this, but with how he looked at them, there wasn't anything that they could say. So the only thing that they could do was accept it.
After they settled down, Lin Fan had Xin'er play by herself on the side as he started the meeting.
All of the subdued gangs had gathered today with most of their higher ups to meet their new boss. The only one that was missing was the Demon Wolf Gang's vice leader, but who told him to charge at Lin Fan like that?
Still, he wasn't dead since Lin Fan had a use for him in the future and he was only lying in bed recovering.
After they had gathered, Lin Fan went over his next plans.
"Boss, are you serious?" Xia Liu couldn't help asking when he finished listening to Lin Fan laying out his plans.
While the other people in the room didn't say anything, it was clear by the looks on their faces that they were thinking the same thing.
That was because the plan that Lin Fan had come up with was just too crazy!
Lin Fan didn't respond to this question and instead, he answered with another question, "What? Do you doubt my abilities?"
Xia Liu trembled when he heard this and he quickly waved his hands as he said, "No, no, boss, I would never doubt your abilities…It's just that this seems a bit too dangerous. There are better ways to do this, so is there a need for you to take this kind of risk?"
Lin Fan gave a chuckle before saying, "Risk? There's no risk at all. They won't be able to do a single thing to me."
Everyone looked at each other with eyes filled with doubt, but not a single person dared to say a thing.
That was because they could still remember how easily Lin Fan had taken care of all of them.
It was clear that Lin Fan still hadn't shown them his true power yet, but they were still worried since his plan involved too many different parties that it was hard to ensure that nothing would go wrong…
But Lin Fan was insistent on this, so they as subordinates didn't have a choice but to follow.
At the same time though, they couldn't help feeling a bit of anticipation and expectation. After all, if Lin Fan's plan did work, this would completely change their positions.
This would be the gamble of the lifetime, so they couldn't let anything go wrong.
Seeing everyone being so filled with excitement and tension, Lin Fan shook his head before heading over to Xin'er and saying, "Xin'er, let's go home."
Xin'er nodded before taking Lin Fan's hand and following her out.
When everyone saw this, they couldn't help shaking their heads while giving sighs, but they didn't dwell too much on it.
What they didn't know was that this girl who looked completely different from before was actually Min'er.
The corpses that the assassin had actually delivered to the master were fakes…Well, Duanmu Hua Yu's corpse was actually real, but Min'er's corpse was a fake.
In a slum city like this where it was hard for one to even feed themself, it was quite easy for him to find a young girl's corpse that looked similar to Min'er. Then all he had to do was add some final touches and it would be hard for the master to notice that it really wasn't Min'er.
Of course, those were only fake marks that had been made with a special technique from Lin Fan. Even he wasn't cruel enough to defile a young girl's corpse just for the sake of this deception.
The assassin that had brought these two corpses to the young master was naturally the mastermind from that day, the one that had been controlled by Brainy's Parasite Seed. So that was how even after his head had been chopped off, he was still able to stand up and bring the corpses back.
The three corpses that were burnt in the house that day were nothing more than decoys that Lin Fan had made. They weren't even corpses, but rather puppets that he had made with a special technique.
So even if someone searched them, they wouldn't be able to figure out that they were fakes.
As for Duanmu Hua Yu and the little girl's corpse, he had already buried them.
Over the past few days, whenever they had free time, Min'er who now had a completely new appearance and had her name changed to Xin'er by Lin Fan would always want to visit her grandfather's grave.
Lin Fan just brought her there every day after he was done with his work.
He left her alone, but whenever he went back to bring her home, he could see that her eyes were red…
Still, he knew that a heart wouldn't be healed overnight and the wounds of the heart needed time to heal. The only thing that he could do was accompany her.
After dropping her off in front of the grave, Lin Fan walked to the side and stood there by himself as he let her grieve.
During this time, he pulled out a token from his Storage Ring. This was a token that had the cherry blossom design and the word "Mu" written on it.
This token was the real token and the one that had been given to the young master was a fake that Lin Fan had made. To create that kind of simple barrier array was as simple as flipping his hand with his knowledge towards arrays.
This token was something that he needed for Min'er's future because this token was the only thing that could allow her to enter her real family again. This was the only proof of her identity and her claim to their family's succession.
But inversely, this was the main reason why they had attacked Min'er in the first place and had killed Duanmu Hua Yu.
Lin Fan couldn't help giving a sigh as he thought about all of this. fr𝚎e𝙬𝚎𝚋𝚗૦ν𝚎𝒍.c૦m
He had only wanted to find a way back to the Galactic Humanity Alliance, but he never expected to be caught up in such a large plot as soon as he arrived on this Mu Stellar Kingdom.
In a sense, he really had to praise his own eyes since it seemed like they were quite good to recognize the specialty with Min'er.
As for who Duanmu Hua Yu really was, he was the servant of Min'er's mother and had been taking care of her since she was born. So naturally he was like a grandfather to Min'er since Min'er's mother was like a daughter to him.
As he looked at this token, particularly the "Mu" character, Lin Fan couldn't help giving a sigh again.
But then he quickly put away this token and vowed that he would never take it out again until the time was right.
After an hour passed, Xin'er finally came out of the cave that Lin Fan had put the graves in and took Lin Fan's hand without saying a word.
Lin Fan could see that her eyes were red and it hurt his heart seeing this little girl being in pain like this.
So he tried distracting her by asking, "Xin'er, what do you want for dinner tonight."
Xin'er was silent for a bit before just murmuring, "I'll have whatever, it doesn't matter."
Lin Fan wouldn't give up though as he asked, "Xin'er, what about dessert? Is there anything special that you want? You better tell me before we get home or else I won't go out and get it for you."
Xin'er was still depressed, but she was still a child and very easily influenced by words. When she heard Lin Fan's small threat, she immediately reacted.
After thinking about it for a bit, she suddenly said in a low voice, "I want some cream puffs."
Lin Fan revealed a smile when he heard this.
Over the past few days, he had bought many different desserts for high prices just to cheer Xin'er up. It seemed like the cream puffs that he had bought yesterday had finally done the trick and cheered her up a bit.
Personally, Lin Fan took this as a challenge since he knew that kids were hard to deal with. But he would have a kid one day as well, so he knew that he would have to face these challenges one day.
While it had been strange circumstances that had brought them together, he had already decided that he would treat Xin'er like a daughter.
Though he didn't know how Angela would feel about this…but he was certain that she would love a cute little daughter like this as well!
So with this smile on his face, Lin Fan walked hand in hand with Xin'er and said, "Then let's go and get some cream puffs for you."
Xin'er couldn't help being influenced a bit by this as she also revealed a smile and gave a nod as she said, "Un!"
