Chi Jiao spoke methodically, and Huo Chen heard her words loud and clear.
“Officer Huo, don’t you think it’s strange? Chi Yan is clearly from the S911 laboratory. The Zhutuo Flower’s nectar is poisonous, so how could she not know?” Chi Jiao said, giving him a confused look.
Also listening to her explanation, Pei Yao continued, “It was probably the soul in her body that helped her enter the S911 laboratory. If that’s the case, then she’s considered to have used her special ability to obtain inappropriate benefits for herself. This is a violation of the rules.”
Huo Chen nodded slowly. “Then, we have to take her away.”
“Will she be treated?” Chi Jiao asked.
Huo Chen felt that it was commendable that Chi Jiao could still care about Chi Yan at such a time. He looked at her deeply and said slowly, “Don’t worry, she will be treated appropriately.”
“What if she can’t be treated?” Chi Jiao asked.
“If she can’t be treated, then she can only spend the rest of her life in a mental hospital,” Pei Yao said.
Espers with mental illnesses were not allowed to be released until they had fully recovered, in fear that they would harm society.
Chi Jiao looked down to hide the happiness that flashed across her eyes and nodded gently.
Then, I’ll find a way to make Chi Yan go crazy forever.
Seeing her eyes lowered, Huo Chen thought that she was feeling a little upset. He reached out and patted her shoulder, saying softly, “You’ve already done very well.”
“Thank you, Officer Huo,” Chi Jiao said with a smile.
After they left, Chi Jiao called Na Yankun and told him to return to Mount Li first. She would be there in two days.
…
No high-speed rail or plane connected Mount Li to White City. One could go by train or car.
Chi Mingwei originally wanted to go back with her, but he knew Chi Jiao’s god grandfather’s temper. If he followed along rashly without the old man’s permission, he would make the other party unhappy.
He sent a car to send Chi Jiao and Quan Jue to Mount Li.
As he watched them get into the car, Chi Mingwei felt as if he had eaten a big lemon.
Why could Quan Jue go as well?
But he couldn’t?
Chi Mingwei couldn’t figure it out. He sadly arranged for Quan Jue to take good care of Jiaojiao before watching the car drive away.
In the end, he silently gave in to his tears and went home alone.
From White City to Mount Li, it would take about ten hours if they drove on the expressway, and this still did not include the rest time on the road.
When they reached Whitefish Town at Mount Li’s foot, it was already 9:00 PM.
Chi Jiao’s god grandfather and god grandmother lived halfway up the mountain. It wasn’t wise to climb the mountain at night, so Chi Jiao and Quan Jue could only stay in Whitefish Town for the night and continue on their way in the morning.
Whitefish Town was ancient, considered one of the more famous tourist towns in the area. There were guesthouses everywhere.
The chauffeur was in a hurry to return to White City the next morning, so he sent them to a guesthouse called Flower Blossom before leaving.
Quan Jue was about to walk up the stairs with his luggage when Chi Jiao reached out and grabbed his arm.
He turned to look at the girl behind him.
Chi Jiao was wearing a red down jacket, which accentuated her fair face and made her look as cute as a squishy bun.
She looked at him with sparkling eyes. “Brother Quan, how many rooms do you plan to book?”
Quan Jue narrowed his eyes and spat out, “Two rooms.”
“I’ll be afraid by myself. Everyone says that there’s a type of mountain demon in the mountains that can turn into a child’s appearance to deceive people. When they are not vigilant, the demon will then eat them up,” Chi Jiao said seriously. “I’m very afraid.”
