01: rebirth

Shanghai, late one night, in a small alley.

Liu Limao dragged his sickly body and hid in a corner. The officers in uniform coming and going seemed to be searching for the prisoner.

He broke out in a cold sweat, but said nothing, slowly waiting for the bustle outside to fade away.

With the direct light shining down, the wounds that could be seen everywhere on his body left a pool of blood where he took shelter.

He stood up tremblingly and leaned against the wall: "Am I going to die here?"

A nearby dental clinic was preparing to turn off the lights and take a break after treating its last patient.

"Xiao Fang, it's too late today. You should go back and rest early. I will take care of the rest." The man wearing glasses reminded.

"Sorry to trouble you, Doctor Han, Yanzi and I will go back first." Xiao Fang couldn't help yawning, packed up his things, and walked out of the clinic.

"Miss, there were people in officer uniforms searching everywhere just now. We have to be careful." Fang Yan warned carefully as she followed behind.

"As long as we keep our mouths tight, how can we be exposed?" Fang Qin gave her an annoyed look.

"I'm afraid that the young master will catch me, and then our nursing work here will be completely ruined." Yanzi couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

"Okay, we'll be there just through this alley. As long as we speak carefully, this area will be safe."

Liu Limao staggered out along the alley: "I didn't go back today, so I should be worried. The Mu family has raised me for so many years, and even if I die, I can only die at home. I can't be treated as an unknown corpse by those people."

Suddenly, wherever he looked, he saw two black figures.

With no way to escape, he could only run towards the depths of the alley in a hurry, leaving no time to clean up the blood stains that fell.

"Cai'er, do you smell blood?"

"Miss, I don't know how to respond well to what you said. Sometimes you use a false name, and sometimes you call your real name." Mu Cai didn't quite understand her behavior.

"This smell of blood scares me." She was very perceptive as usual.

"I... hold the scalpel in the bag. If there is danger, the lady will hide behind me." Cai'er became more and more frightened in this atmosphere.

Finally, hearing a familiar voice, he gradually calmed down while standing in the distance.

Now there was no time to worry about how the two of them returned home. He fell to the ground directly after losing too much blood.

A "bang" sound came from the end of the alley.

"Ah——" Cai'er screamed loudly in fright.

Fang Qin covered her mouth in panic: "Do you want to lure people here?"

"Then... what should we do now? That person is blocking our way out of the alley." Cai'er was a little scared and her steps became heavy.

She calmly took out the flashlight from her bag and illuminated the road. A red blood trail appeared in front of them.

Moving the flashlight towards the alley, a man fell straight to the ground, which happened to be their only exit.

"Is that person seriously injured? Let's go over and have a look."

The two people ran over in a hurry. The blood stains in the alley spread all the way to this point. Cai'er moved the person out with all her strength.

The moonlight shone on that person's face, causing her to scream again.

"What's wrong? He can't be dead, right?" Fang Qin walked over from inside.

"He's not dead, he still has a faint breath." Cai'er checked the man's breathing and looked at the young lady eagerly: "We have to save him. This man is the eldest young master's right-hand man - Liu Limao."

"What?"

In shock, the two men carried Liu Limao to their rental house, and Fang Qin ran down again to clean up the bloodstains along the road.

Cai'er tore off the man's clothes and looked around for wounds.

"Miss, there were eight bullets in his eight wounds, and there was a slight fracture in his finger."

"You send a message to your elder brother tomorrow, saying that he has been busy outside recently and can't go back." Fang Qin frowned: "Is the family business so dangerous?"

Fortunately, she has always had the habit of carrying a scalpel with her, and it really came in handy this time.

She thought for a while and continued to direct: "Bring the remaining iodophor at home, and then light a candle."

"Miss, you don't want to operate on him at home, do you? There is no anesthetic at home." Mu Cai shook his head in disbelief: "How about I ask Dr. Han to come back and get us the anesthetic?"

"It's the curfew now. It will be dangerous for him to come back. Just do as I say."

Mu Cai had no choice but to prepare according to the lady's instructions.

Even if Doctor Han comes back tomorrow, Brother Li will probably die.

After everything was over, there was a thin layer of sweat on Fang Qin's forehead.

Cai'er handed over a handkerchief: "Wipe it."

She went to check the man's breathing again, and immediately felt relieved: "Fortunately, it didn't hurt to death."

"I'll take care of these blood-stained clothes, and you can feed him two aspirin."

Fang Qin randomly took away the used medical bandages and blood-stained clothes and hid them in the grass.

"Okay." Cai'er found the remaining anti-inflammatory medicine from the room and forcefully fed the last few tablets into it.

"Oh my God, please wake me up quickly, this girl is going to murder me."

Liu Limao screamed desperately, but could not break through the darkness.

Gradually, the medicine took effect and he fell asleep.

The next morning, Fang Qin went to work, leaving Mu Cai at home to take care of him.

She remembered the lady's words: "The fever has gone away. Tomorrow you can feed him some warm water from time to time. In the afternoon I will bring a sling bottle and give him a bottle of medicine."

Why don’t you think about how to explain that you are not in Germany when Brother Li wakes up?

She flipped through the books on the table haphazardly. If Brother Li told the eldest young master what had happened, both of us would be doomed.

On the huge sofa, Liu Limao kept shaking. His head kept shaking, but he couldn't shake the frightening scene. They walked closer to him, and then walked closer. They stretched out their pale hands and surrounded him,

The circle is getting smaller and smaller... "Go away!"

He was so shocked that he jumped up from the bed, and the pain in his body forced him to continue lying down. He touched his forehead with his uninjured arm, and a cold sweat broke out all over his body.

This is where?

He couldn't figure it out. Wasn't he being sent to the gallows by the Japanese?

This man's movements made Mu Cai'er have to turn around and look at him: "Is this a nightmare?"

Seeing that the man didn't say anything, he got up and walked to the sofa. He saw the man looking at him with a puzzled look on his face: "Are you awake?"

"You-" The man's weak voice frightened Mu Cai, as if he was calling the world like an evil ghost from hell.

She composed herself, and after making sure that she had not saved the wrong person, she continued: "We haven't seen each other for eight years, don't you remember me?"

"Where is this?" Liu Limao looked at Mu Cai standing in front of him. His appearance more than ten years ago made him unable to name him.

"This is the house that the lady and I rented." Cai'er noticed that there was something strange in the way he stared at her, and she felt indescribably scared for a moment.

"Miss?" He couldn't believe the current turn of events. Cai'er standing in front of him seemed to be telling himself the chaotic time.

"No, you won't be stunned by the bullet." Mu Cai said, going to touch his forehead: "Let the lady come back later to see if he was also shot in the head."

What has Brother Li experienced in the past eight years?

He messed with someone he shouldn't mess with outside. Does the young master know?

After repeated inspections, Mu Cai felt relieved and couldn't help but look at his appearance: "My head is not injured, how come you don't remember my lady?"

"Fu'er——" Liu Limao tried his best to say the name he had been thinking about.

In his previous life, when he was resisting foreign aggression, he thought about this person all the time. The two originally agreed to get married after winning the national war of resistance. However, the traitor betrayed him, went to the gallows, and then came here.

"It seems that the brain suffered an intermittent short circuit after the injury. It scared me." Mu Cai'er poured a glass of water for him and put it into his mouth.

"The lady said that the injuries on your body were caused by two days of running away. Who did you offend? Why did that person want you to die?"

He didn't want to speak, he just stared at Mu Cai blankly, feeling indescribably excited.

He originally wanted to be happy, but the wounds on his body did not allow his mood to fluctuate greatly.

Seeing that he had no intention of answering, Cai'er had to change the subject: "There is porridge in the kitchen. I will bring it to you. Eat slowly."

"Thanks."

Liu Limao's weak voice made Mu Cai couldn't bear to look at him: "Just lie down."

Is this a joke God made on me?

He stared at the roof, and his body's energy was not enough to support the rotation of his brain. After a while, he fell asleep again.

While sleeping, the memory of this body came flooding in.

Liu Limao was born in the year of Guimao. In the year of Yimao, he went to Mu Mansion to beg and was adopted by his parents. Taking advantage of Mu Fu's overseas trip, Mu Jing sent him to Japan to study journalism and military affairs. After returning to China, he joined the organization. This time

The assassination was due to the traitor's betrayal, which resulted in all the strongholds he established being destroyed, and only he escaped.

This is obviously my own experience. Am I really reborn?

It's a bit strange that the person I met when I went to Jiangcheng appeared here.

He opened his eyes and looked at the decorations and furnishings in the room.

What year is it now? Isn’t the organization in my memory the same organization I understand?

Full of doubts, Liu Limao waited for the return of Mu Fu from this world.

Cai'er has been busy in the kitchen, and some fragrance wafts out from time to time.

Suddenly, the door into the living room was pushed in from the outside.

A woman walked in wearing a light blue cheongsam and a black and white shawl. She had dark jade-like black hair and a simple Ruyi bun, which is the most popular bun nowadays.

"Miss, it's time to start dinner." Cai'er walked out of the kitchen, took Mu Fu's bag and put it aside.

"Brother Li, are you awake?" She didn't stare at the people on the sofa, but went straight to the kitchen to serve the food.

"woke up."

"It is indeed Brother Li. He woke up so quickly after being hit by so many bullets." Mu Fu sighed with emotion.

Liu Limao, who was lying on the sofa, heard the sound of thinking about it day and night. He was very excited, but he was afraid of scaring her.

"You masters and servants are eating over there, but I can only smell the aroma here. It's too miserable."
