Her Seven Little Bodyguards novel Chapter 421

Chapter 425

Just then, Vania suddenly spoke up. "I heard that a girl went to see Master Gordon more than 20 years ago. Master Gordon never mentioned to anyone about The Great Chemist's whereabouts, but he actually told this girl that The Great Chemist had gone into the mountains. Today, this very girl is now the boss of a hotel."

"He was exceedingly famous then, but I was just a nobody." Old Mr. Bamboo's tone was a little regretful.

"Could it be that the girl from 20 years ago was actually a descendant of the junior?" Vania was suddenly surprised.

So that was what happened.

"The junior never found The Great Chemist, and she still hoped that she could see him one last time in the end. This was why she asked her descendant to look for him. However, her dreams didn't come true." There was an unstoppable sorrow in Old Mr. Bamboo's eyes. "What a pity."

If he wasn't a nobody back then, then perhaps he could've met the junior's descendant. He would have resolved this regret if he had met the woman he loved again.

"All because of Master Gordon's words, many people sacrificed their lives in search of The Great Chemist. Ever since then, he stopped seeing visitors."

When Vania heard that reasoning, she understood everything immediately.

Just then, Old Mr. Bamboo stood up, a never-before-seen look of relaxation on his face. "I'm very grateful to have met you all. If you visited me decades earlier, I would definitely go with you and have a look outside."

"It's not too late even now," said Hanson. "In 3 days, I can make Bamboo Pavilion the talk of the town."

"I do believe in your capabilities." Old Mr. Bamboo shook his head. "However, there really is no need for that now."

He hadn't given up before this, but now that he had met these people and conversed with them, he had gracefully let everything go. It was definitely a fateful meeting. When she saw Old Mr. Bamboo getting up to leave, she immediately said in a panic, "Sir, can you help me? I want to know if my son's illness can be cured."

Since Old Mr. Bamboo had grown up with The Great Chemist, he might know a thing or two about medicine. As he looked at Vania's face, he simply couldn't decline. "Tell me about it."

Elated, Vania immediately told him everything about Jude's condition.

Old Mr. Bamboo frowned deeply. "This is a poison without an antidote."

Vania's eyes turned red in an instant. "Does this mean that even The Great Chemist cannot save him?"

She really couldn't come to terms with this ending.

"He is able to, but now no one knows where he went." Old Mr. Bamboo was telling Vania the truth because there had been no news from The Great Chemist ever since that day.

"I'll go look for him in The Broad Peaks. Even if I have to raze the entire mountain into the ground, I'll find him."

Old Mr. Bamboo stared straight at Vania. With her tone and expression, she honestly looked like that pupil from all those years ago.

"The Great Chemist really did go to The Broad Peaks back then." Old Mr. Bamboo affirmed Vania's thoughts. "And he may still be there now. All these years, people had been searching for him in the mountains of Gondalwelt, but they had no idea that he wasn't there."

Vania looked at Old Mr. Bamboo gratefully. "Thank you for telling me all this."

"I did it simply because I believed it's fate that we met." Old Mr. Bamboo sighed. "If you really do find him, please ask him something for me."

Vania nodded sincerely. "I'll definitely find him."

"Ask him if he remembers his good old friends from the past."

"I will." Vania nodded firmly. "We'll be leaving right away. Wait for our news."

Old Mr. Bamboo retrieved a purse from his pocket. "Please pass him this. I wish you all the best."

Vania took the purse and earnestly kept it safe. "I will."
