"Do you have that set of acupuncture needles in your hand?"
Hoss asked very directly.
But unexpectedly, Mo Qing answered more directly: "Yes."
Hoss was startled.
Ever since Jiang Qihui took the photo of the acupuncture needle, Huo Si has been keeping an eye on Jiang Qihui's actions. However, according to the record number 404 in the base's collection manual, although the characteristics of Jiang Qihui's acupuncture needle are similar, some special features are completely inconsistent, so Huo Si Si judged that his acupuncture needles were fake.
If it is false, there are only two reasons.
First, acupuncture needles are inherently fake.
Second, the acupuncture needles were dropped.
According to Song Yiyuan's description, there was a power outage during the auction, and Mo Qing was not around at that time. However, there was no news that anything happened behind the scenes of the auction.
Then think of Mo Qing's background of "sleeping a hundred years ago" and Mo Qing's skills...
Huos always felt that acupuncture needles had something to do with Mo Qing.
Although he was extremely sure when he asked, he just had a guess and asked just to test it out. Unexpectedly, Mo Qing was so calm and admitted without hesitating for a second.
"Why are you—" Huos was about to ask something when he suddenly realized that Mo Qing was grabbing Shen Qi's arm and moving it up and down. He immediately said, "Don't touch her!"
Mo Qing continued to sway and said, "She should move around."
"She usually has someone to help her move." Hoss was speechless and stared closely at her movements, "You have a heavy hand, but be gentle."
He was afraid that Mo Qing would break Shen Qi's hand just like breaking flowers.
Mo Qing damaged a living person, and the living person could still utter a sound, but he damaged Shen Qi, and Shen Qi couldn't speak.
"Okay."
Mo Qing put down Shen Qi's hand and stopped touching her.
Turning around, Mo Qing glanced at Hoss and asked, "Why are you investigating acupuncture needles?"
"We went there because of Jiang Qihui and other matters. The acupuncture needle was just an accident." Huo Si did not hide it, but frowned and looked at Mo Qing suspiciously, "As for you, why did you switch the acupuncture needle? Really acupuncture Where’s the needle?”
Mo Qing didn't answer. He walked to a wicker chair nearby, sat down, raised his right leg and put it on his left knee, and asked lazily: "Can you have access to the collection manual of your base?"
Hoss's pupils shrank suddenly.
The next moment, Mo Qing struck again: "Number 404."
Hoss, who had always been calm and composed, his expression was inevitably cracked at this moment. He composed himself: "How do you know?"
"I wrote it." Mo Qing answered frankly. She leaned her elbow on the armrest of the wicker chair, tilted her head slightly, her eyelids slowly raised, her eyes dark and bright, "Do you think I look like the legendary miracle doctor? ?”
Hoss: "..." I think you look like a legendary psychopath.
With emotions of shock and surprise running through his body, Hoss could only stare at Mo Qing blankly at this moment, weighing whether Mo Qing's words were true or false. However, with the amount of information he only knew, there was no way to judge.
In the end, Hoss decided to put aside the issue of "true and false" for the time being and focus on the problem that needed to be solved at the moment: "Give me the acupuncture needle."
Mo Qing answered quickly: "No."
Huo Si's expression froze: "Mo Qing——"
"Let's make a deal." Mo Qing lazily cut off his words.
"What?"
Mo Qing held a rose petal in his fingers and spoke in a calm and unhurried tone, as if he was sure of victory: "I'll let your sister wake up safe and sound, and you can just pretend that the acupuncture needle never happened."
Hoss questioned: "Can you do it?"
"I can't do it."
Mo Qing bent two fingers toward the palm of his hand and waved them casually. When he raised his fingers again, the rose petals had turned into a silver needle.
A ray of breeze stirred up the hair hanging down on her face, and the corners of her lips curved slightly: "It can."
"You have been planning for a long time." Hoss keenly caught a glimmer of light in his mind and analyzed it piece by piece. "After learning about Shen Qi's illness, you became emboldened. I discovered the acupuncture needle. You can follow me." Make a deal. If you don't get discovered by me, you can make a deal with me for other things, right?"
Mo Qing didn't say yes or no.
She said lightly: "It's up to you to decide."
After pondering for a long time, Hoss made a decision in his mind, but asked: "It is recorded in the manual that No. 404 has miraculous effects and can cure difficult and complicated diseases in the world. It is not an exaggeration to say that it can 'raise the flesh and white bones of the dead'. Is it true?" "
Mo Qing accepted the silver needle and said, "If you have access to a few special items in the manual, you should be able to make your own judgment."
!
Hoss was horrified.
——She really knows something about the collection manual.
——Even if she is not the writer, she should be the one who has read the manual.
After giving Hoss some time, Mo Qing said, "Have you decided? I don't like Mo Qing."
The tightly curled fingers loosened, and Hoss' eyes flashed and became determined. He looked at this girl who existed like a mystery and made a decision: "As long as she can wake up, I don't have to know."
Mo Qing raised his eyebrows, not surprised.
"I still have a condition." Hoss said, "I have to watch you while you are treating you."
"Can."
"When will you be treated and what do you need to prepare?"
"It can be cured now."
Hoss was not prepared at all: "Now?"
"Um."
"..."
Hoss felt that this happened a bit suddenly.
"The treatment will take about half an hour. She will wake up after lying down for another two or three days." Mo Qing glanced at him, "Do I want to give you some time to mentally prepare?"
"……Need not."
Hoss was afraid that if he thought too much, he would regret it later.
If he could keep an eye on Mo Qing's actions and let Mo Qing try to treat Shen Qi, he would be able to accept it.
Lifting her right leg and lowering it, Mo Qing stood up. The wind blew up her clothes. She looked at the girl sleeping on the hospital bed and said with interest, "Let's get started."

In the corridor, Mo Sui'an frowned and looked solemn.
——Why did you stay so long?
——You won’t do anything casual in the ward, right?!
After finding out that the person living in the ward was a vegetative state, countless thoughts exploded in Mo Sui'an's mind. The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, and he wished he could manually clear up the relationship with Mo Qing.
Finally, after about an hour of searching, the ward door was opened.
Mo Sui'an ducked into the hot water room and observed secretly.
Not sure if it was an illusion, but when Mo Sui'an saw Mo Qing coming out, he immediately glanced this way.
…
In the corridor, after Mo Qing caught a glimpse of a certain figure passing by, he paused suddenly and looked back to ask Huos: "Have the investigation into Wen Yingxue's matter been clear?"
"Yes." Hoss nodded and did not hide it, "She is indeed the long-lost daughter of the Mo family, and you have taken over her identity. But there is still room for maneuver in this matter..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard the door of the hot water room being pushed open forcefully.
Mo Sui'an ran out and faced the two of them with sharp and angry eyes: "What are you talking about?!"
