The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot

Chapter 255: 245 Divine Doctor, Hacker [3 Updates]

The Mu family could be considered the first business empire of Imperial Capital.

But because they had a General’s Background, even though they had entered commerce, they still possessed significant influence in other areas.

Furthermore, Mu Heqing had received many honors, his merits were too great, and he was under state protection with an extraordinarily terrifying network.

In this regard, the Nie Family and the Xiu Family could not compare with the Mu family.

Thus, Mu Chenzhou found some things baffling.

Mu Heqing was retiring, and when it came to selecting a successor within the Mu family, who else was qualified to intervene and dictate the affairs of the Mu family?

Probably not even Old Master Nie was qualified.

Seeing Mu Chenzhou’s reaction, Mu Weifeng thought for a moment, “You don’t know?”

“I don’t know,” Mu Chenzhou considered that Mu Weifeng was testing him, his tone cooled slightly, “You also said Mr. Mu Cheng came before me, and I can’t foresee the future.”

Madam Mu had also reminded him repeatedly that among the other candidates for succession, the one he needed to be most wary of was Mu Weifeng.

Mu Weifeng was two years younger than him, twenty this year, and still a student at Imperial Capital University.

Imperial Capital University is the top academic institution in Hua Country, with high prestige in the international academic community.

Imperial Capital University selects students solely based on ability and doesn’t care if they are from a major clan.

The only disadvantage was that Mu Weifeng’s parents had passed away early, leaving no one to support him.

Additionally, doctors had declared that he would not live past thirty.

A person with a short life was not suitable to inherit the Mu family.

“Grandfather’s life-saving benefactor,” Mu Weifeng coughed faintly, “a divine healer.”

He paused, then added, “Mr. Mu Cheng said that if it weren’t for this divine healer, it’s very likely that grandfather would not have made it past the beginning of this year.”

“Grandfather greatly admires this divine healer and even considered handing over the Mu family directly to them. However, the healer is disinterested in the matter.”

Upon hearing this, Mu Chenzhou’s furrowed brows eased, “I know who it is now.”

The matter of the Meng Family treating Mu Heqing wasn’t a secret; even Madam Mu knew about it.

But Madam Mu only knew it was a very skilled healer from the Meng Family, not who it was exactly.

When communicating with Meng Jingyu, Mu Chenzhou was fortunate enough to learn the name of this healer.

They were from the direct lineage of the Meng Family, very young, yet their medical skills were nothing short of magical and not inferior to the older generation.

Mu Heqing held this healer in very high esteem and even became friends with her despite their age difference.

If it were Mu Heqing’s life-saver, then their meddling in the Mu family’s succession affairs wouldn’t be strange.

Mu Weifeng was unaware, but he didn’t ask.

A few minutes later, Mu Cheng, who had left earlier, returned.

Mu Chenzhou did not know if it was his misconception, but it seemed like Mu Cheng took an extra glance at him.

“The first assessment is set for the end of this month,” Mu Cheng handed the documents in his hand to the butler, “Please ensure all young masters and young ladies arrive on time. The details of the assessment are in here, and there will be no further explanation at that time.”

The butler distributed the documents, and everyone received their own copy.

On seeing the content of the assessment, everyone’s expression turned solemn.

“Mr. Mu Cheng,” Mu Chenzhou suddenly spoke up, “we still can’t see grandfather?”

“Pass the first assessment, and you will be able to see him; this is the rule of the Mu family,” said Mu Cheng, “The old master went through the same process too.”

In the last century and during the Dynastic Era, the assessments for the Mu family’s successors were conducted with such systems in place.

This was to ensure that the Mu family would not become corrupt and decay internally, so even if some descendants harbored ill intentions, the entire Mu family would not fall.

Mu Chenzhou pursed his lips and sat down.

He had thought that Mu Heqing would appear in person to tell them.

Before leaving, Mu Cheng stopped in front of Mu Weifeng, “Young Master Wei Feng, given your health condition, I suggest you seek treatment to avoid complications during the assessment.”

Mu Weifeng smiled faintly, “Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Mu Cheng. If the opportunity arises, I will.”

Mu Cheng nodded and then left.

Shanghai City.

Eleven o’clock at night.

Even late at night, this international metropolis was still brightly lit and bustling with traffic.

However, that did not include an abandoned villa in the Northern Suburbs.

The area around the villa seemed calm, but was in fact concealed with many people.

They all wore black tight-fitting leather clothing, blending into the night.

These people were the elite trained by the Bevin Family.

Hua Country had Ancient martial arts, and O-continent also had its own specialized martial arts techniques.

Those mercenaries had strength not inferior to ancient martial artists.

Especially for a major clan like the Bevin Family, which had spent a lot of money to recruit some listed hunters.

Inside the villa.

First floor hall.

Rita sat on the sofa, frowning, her expression somewhat impatient.

She always had the temperament of a young lady and disliked waiting for others,

“Miss,” a middle-aged man came from outside, respectfully saying, “Don’t worry, everything is ready, we’re just waiting for the Number One Poison Master to arrive.”

Rita waved her hand to indicate that she understood.

Then she turned her head and began to introduce the two people beside her to Ying Zijin: “This gentleman is Mr. Lance Eden, ranked forty-third on the Hypnotist rankings.”

“This lady is Ms. Beixi Hillman, ranked thirty-third on the assassins’ rankings.”

These were the highest-ranked hunters the Bevin Family could recruit.

After all, most hunters are proud, especially those with high rankings who aren’t lacking in money or power.

The fact that Rita was able to bring rank forty-third on the Hypnotist rankings and thirty-third on the assassins’ rankings was because the Bevin Family was powerful enough.

Aside from the outrageously powerful Lorentz Family, the Bevin Family was one of the three big financial consortiums in O continent, and their influence was not small.

Ying Zijin’s gaze lingered on Lance Eden for half a second, then she nodded: “Hello.”

So far, the highest-ranking hypnotist she had met was Yu Xuesheng.

This Hypnotist, ranked second on the rankings, was so powerful that a mere glance on the street could instantly trap you in his hypnotism.

Not even knowing how you were hypnotized.

Hypnotists were mostly Psychologists as well because they could control others’ minds very well, knowing everyone’s weaknesses.

This allowed them to instantly breach the other’s defenses and hypnotize them.

Her skills in hypnotism were learned the last time she visited Earth, and she had not used it many times; it was still quite unfamiliar to her.

Yesterday, when she was dealing with the five ancient martial artists sent by the Meng Family, the reason she hypnotized them so smoothly was that she had first fought them.@@novelbin@@

After breaking their spirit and their nerves relaxed, hypnotizing them became easy.

Therefore, the fear of Hypnotists is second only to Poison Masters.

An evil Hypnotist might even hypnotize passersby on the street, persuading them to commit suicide.

However, Hypnotists are also the ones who can barely restrain the Poison Masters.

Although the two ranked hunters did not know the girl’s identity, they were aware that anyone Rita treated with such formality likely had a higher ranking than them.

Both greeted her respectfully, standing guard beside Rita.

“Three more hours,” Rita gestured to the middle-aged man.

Understanding her, the man moved a square table over.

Then, Rita, not sure from where, brought out a box and placed it on the table.

She eagerly suggested, “There are four of us, why don’t we play some mahjong?”

“…”

At the same time.

Ying Family.

Because of persistent neurological issues, Zhong Manhua often suffered from nervous exhaustion, so she went to bed early.

Meanwhile, the light was still on in another bedroom.

Ying Yuexuan sat by her desk, not reading but rather, she had turned on her computer.

On the screen of the cellphone beside the keyboard was the chat interface between Ying Yuexuan and her senior schoolmate from Yilan Public School.

[code.docx]

[“This is the code you wanted, it can invade someone’s computer in a short time, keep it safe, but what do you need this for?”]

Ying Yuexuan pursed her lips, replying.

[“My qq account was hacked, it has very important information, I’m thinking of getting it back.”]

[“I see, in any case, this code is unsafe due to it’s rapid invasion and ability to damage the computer’s firewall, you can only use it once, if you can’t retrieve your qq account, ask me for it again.”]

After responding with a “Thank you, senior,” Ying Yuexuan opened the Word document and entered the code into the computer.

After pressing the Enter key, the program started running.

In a few seconds, a window popped up on the screen.

[“Connected to DESKTOP-SE3BTNK.”]

Ying Yuexuan knew that this was Ying Zijin’s computer model.

She hadn’t added any of Ying Zijin’s contact information but they were in the same grade group chat.

With this program, she could establish a long-distance connection.

Although she couldn’t fully understand the program, it didn’t stop her from using it.

She had thought that hacking into Ying Zijin’s computer would take some time, but it didn’t even take a second.

This proved that Ying Zijin’s computer didn’t have a good firewall and was the most common type available on the market.
