"Grandpa Shen, it might be dangerous for others, but it’s safe for to do it." Gu Qiaoqiao’s voice was filled with confidence.
It was an undeniable fact.
Elder Shen’s tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed, knowing that Qiaoqiao had never been an overconfident child. Since she said there was no danger, he could discuss the mission with her.
He began, "Qiaoqiao, we have another suspicion about the cause of this fire. Ah Ze is investigating this matter; he needs to et soone nad Tian Cheng, who provided us so clues. But whether the person offering clues is the Huang Tiekou you ntioned, you need to et Tian Cheng first to find out."
"Grandpa Shen, I’ll find Tian Cheng tomorrow and call you in the afternoon. I don’t have caller ID here, could you give your phone number?"
Elder Shen nodded, "Alright, I’ll send two people to protect you tomorrow morning!"
Lastly, Elder Shen gave his office phone number to Gu Qiaoqiao. Qiaoqiao picked up the pen and paper beside her and wrote it down. Elder Shen further instructed, "Qiaoqiao, be sure to stay safe. If it’s dangerous, don’t proceed, or else I’ll really feel sorry for Ah Ze."
"Grandpa Shen, don’t worry. I’ll act within my limits," Gu Qiaoqiao assured calmly.
Now, she still needed to retrieve Qin Yize’s soul, so she couldn’t let herself be in a dangerous situation.
"Alright then, we’ll be in touch if anything happens."
The two discussed so arrangents for Qin Yize’s return to the Imperial Capital before hanging up.
At that mont, 80% of Gu Qiaoqiao’s suspicion had been confird; Huang Tiekou definitely had a connection to the Northern Granary fire.
Thus, she needed to find Tian Cheng first to determine who this person was.
Gu Qiaoqiao believed that when facing her, Huang Tiekou wouldn’t dare lie.
Gu Qiaoqiao glanced at the phone number she had recorded, folded it nicely, and placed it in her notebook. Then she returned to Qin Yize’s bedside, using her hands to gently soothe the possible lingering negative energy within his body. At this mont, Gu Qiaoqiao had to admit, even modestly, her spiritual energy might be unparalleled in this world.
No wonder Ouyang Wensheng, the esteed Sect Leader of the Mystic Sect, was quite wary of her.
Because Qin Yize’s body was well-nourished.
There were no visible signs of his soul being out of the body.
Gu Qiaoqiao’s brows slightly furrowed as she murmured in a low voice, "Ah Ze, where are you? Trapped sowhere? Can you tell ? Maybe give a hint in a dream, so I can find you..."
The room was silent, with Gu Qiaoqiao’s faint murmurs softly echoing.
Qin Yize remained as quiet as ever.
Gu Qiaoqiao finished massaging Qin Yize’s body and then wiped him down with a warm towel. Once done, she exhaled deeply, it was already ten o’clock in the evening.
Although Gu Qiaoqiao wasn’t sleepy, she forced herself to rest. At this mont, she noticed the envelope on the bedside table, walked over, picked it up, hesitated for a second, and opened it. Inside was a passbook and property certificate, and so other items.
Gu Qiaoqiao thought it must be all of Captain Su’s belongings, but she didn’t know Captain Su’s na yet. She curiously opened the passbook...
Su Changan.
Turns out, Captain Su’s na is Su Changan.
After a glance, Gu Qiaoqiao put the passbook back in the envelope, thinking, the day after tomorrow she would definitely return to the Imperial Capital with Qin Yize.
The real situation of Qin Yize was known only to Gu Qiaoqiao.
She no longer held onto any luck; although Qin Yize had the accident here, Gu Qiaoqiao was certain his soul wasn’t within Sky Sea City’s limits.
Then, should she leave this envelope in Sky Sea City?
Because if Captain Su returned, he would need these items.
Should she mail them back?
It’s quite a hassle.
Should she give the envelope to Xiao Shuang for delivery?
But if Captain Su planned for it, he wouldn’t have given these things to her. He could have given them directly to Xiao Shuang or other trustworthy colleagues, or kept them in an office drawer or anywhere at ho.
Thinking of this, Gu Qiaoqiao suddenly, sternly realized sothing was off. Didn’t Captain Su think he would return safely and it would be inconvenient for him if she took this away?
Besides, he knew that neither she nor Qin Yize would want these things, they were just safekeeping them, whether he was alive or dead!
Gu Qiaoqiao’s expression grew serious, tightly clutching the envelope.
At this mont, Gu Qiaoqiao understood one thing: whether this mission succeeded or not, Captain Su didn’t plan to return alive.
What’s the best way to exact revenge?
Go down together?
But why would Captain Su choose to go down together?
Was the boss of Huang Yu that special?
Special enough to imdiately want his death, requiring many processes, prompting Gu Qiaoqiao to rember Xiang Island’s distinctiveness, validating these thoughts.
And the na Su Changan appeared again in Gu Qiaoqiao’s mind. She carefully searched her sealed past-life mories but found no information about him.
Indeed, she had never been here in her past life, how would she know everything about Su Changan?
Gu Qiaoqiao shook her head in disappointnt, but knowing if Captain Su wore the peace Buddha pendant she gave him, combined with the Barrier Talisman she placed on him, it should be fine unless Su Changan was set on dying, she couldn’t do anything.
Gu Qiaoqiao thought for a mont and placed the envelope in the docunt folder inside her travel bag.
Everyone has their own destiny; so matters can’t be forced.
At that mont, Gu Qiaoqiao felt sothing was amiss, her brows furrowing slightly, sensing her surroundings carefully.
No unusual energy.
Then why did this feeling of unease arise?
Just then, Gu Qiaoqiao heard a knocking sound on the window glass.
Gu Qiaoqiao rushed to the window, switched off the ward lights so she could see outside.
