Chapter 844: Chapter 416 The Identity of Chris’s Family

A few moments later, Mu You walked out of the building with Fuya.

The people outside immediately became vigilant.

Fortunately, with Mu You’s mediation, the two parties did not enter into further conflict and the handover was completed smoothly.

Afterward, Mu You and Fuya were taken to the police station, where they went through some personal registration.

For individuals from different worlds like Fuya with extraordinary strength, they are usually first sent to the Institution for Extranormal Individuals to undergo thorough investigation and observation, to ensure they are not a danger before they are granted the freedom to move about.

Now, with Mu You vouching for her, she was able to bypass this process. After the registration, she went back to the pet shop with Mu You.

"You’ve got a flaw!"

Fuya followed Mu You to the pet shop, but just as she stepped inside, she heard a tender voice yelling from behind her, followed immediately by a hard object hitting the top of her head.

"Hiss... What?"

Fuya, clutching her head, turned to look behind and saw a little girl with an animal face mask, holding a wooden sword behind her.

Seeing that the person who entered was a woman, Mian Mian, wielding the wooden sword, froze in her place. The ’surprise’ she had prepared for Mu You had accidentally landed on a stranger’s head, creating an awkward moment as their eyes met.

"I’m, I’m sorry..." Mian Mian mumbled an apology and quickly fled the scene, running back upstairs.

Mu You and Cola entered the door at this time.

As soon as Cola got home, without saying a word, he rushed straight to the treadmill, running wildly on the spinning wheel as if to show his owner he had always been very diligent, definitely not loafing at all.

Unfortunately, because the treadmill had not been turned on for so long, it was visibly dropping dust as it operated...

Mu You paid it no mind and lead Fuya into the living room, where he poured her a glass of water.

The shop was not open today, as Lin Xue had gone home to visit her family. Previously, when going to the police station, Mu You had already notified Little Ya to help rent another apartment in her community for Fuya to stay temporarily, which was why the shop was empty at the moment.

After inviting Fuya to sit at the table, Mu You sat on the other side and said, "Now, it’s time to talk about your situation."

"My situation? What issue?"

Fuya asked, looking around curiously. For her, who came from the Star Spirit World, many things on Earth were novel and fascinating.

"What’s the actual state of your family? Why is there an entrance leading to the Forgotten Land in your ancestral home?" asked Mu You.

"Ancestral home..."

On hearing this, Fuya frowned, pondered for a moment, and then shook her head, "I am not clear about that... Our ancestral home has existed since the birth of our family. However, it was abandoned over twelve hundred years ago, and the family moved to the Imperial Capital. Since then, we’ve lived there, only returning once each year to pay homage to our ancestors..."

"Twelve hundred years ago..."

Mu You was caught by this timeline.

According to the information previously found in the Silent Library, twelve hundred years ago was exactly when the Fool’s Ancestors returned from Sky High!

The Fool’s Ancestors came back from Sky High and were hunted by the Wizard Association; only a very few managed to escape back to Earth at that time.

And now, a one-way passage to Earth appeared in Fuya’s ancestral home...

Could it be that the Fool’s Ancestors used this passageway to escape back then?

If that were the case, then what role did the Chris family, who provided the escape route, play?

"What are you thinking about?"

It was Fuya’s voice that brought Mu You back from his thoughts.

Mu You looked up, giving Fuya a careful glance, and then suddenly asked, "Is there a possibility that your ancestors were Fools?"

"Huh?"

Fuya was startled, then her face turned strangely as she looked at Mu You, "What are you talking about? How could my ancestors be Fools? The Chris family lineage has always been pure Star Spirit World residents, generation after generation. This can be clearly seen from my family’s genealogy: all surnames are local to the Star Spirit World, with no records of any marriage with Fools whatsoever!"

"But, maybe one generation’s bloodline was swapped without anyone noticing?" Mu You persisted, "Don’t forget, Fools have the ability to disguise..."

"This..."

Fuya was at a loss for words; instinctively, she wanted to say Mu You’s theory was flawed, but couldn’t refute it offhand. Because on closer thought, she really couldn’t deny that possibility!

Seeing Fuya with a furrowed brow in deep thought, Mu You smiled and said, "Actually, whether it’s true or not, we can just verify it."

Fuya looked at him in surprise, "How can we verify this?"

Mu You looked towards Cola on the treadmill, "Cola, where’s your phone?"

Cola, after enduring two minutes on the treadmill, had reverted to his true form, going from a run to a walk and panting with his tongue lolling.

Upon hearing Mu You’s request, he instinctively became alert, "What do you need my phone for?"

"To lend to your owner," replied Mu You.

With a glance at Fuya, Cola begrudgingly went upstairs to fetch the phone.

"What’s a phone?" Fuya asked curiously.

A phone is a kind of long-distance communication tool," explained Mu You. "You can think of it like telepathy, but with many more functions." Telepathy is the magical communication tool of the Star Spirit World, which works on magic power. Its downside is that it has a relatively short communication range, effective only within the same city, but the advantage is that it does not require constructing any signal stations and can be used by inputting magic power.
