“Sister Pei Yao, we’ll be colleagues from now on!” Chi Jiao said with a smile.
Huo Chen didn’t see what was on the doc.u.ment clearly, so he stretched out his hand to Pei Yao. “Let me see.”
Pei Yao handed the doc.u.ment to him as she continued to stare at Chi Jiao in disbelief. She was so shocked that she didn’t know what to say.
“Now, can you tell me how Zou Xingxing escaped?” Chi Jiao asked slowly.
Only then did Pei Yao return to her senses and glance at Quan Jue.
“I’ll take her to the washroom.” Quan Jue knew how important confidentiality was to 117. He didn’t want to put Chi Jiao in a difficult position, so he stood up and grabbed the collar of Shen Xing’s s.h.i.+rt, dragging it to the washroom.
Meanwhile, Huo Chen was also stunned by Chi Jiao’s status as intern manager at 117. He didn’t know what to say.
Chi Jiao gave off the vibe that she was very innocent and harmless. She didn’t look the sort to join an organization like 117 at all.
Pei Yao quickly adjusted her emotions and recovered from her shock. She then used the tone of a subordinate reporting to her superior. “Zou Xingxing and another Esper pretended to have a fight. As they were leaving the Number Seven Mental Hospital, they injured the staff member watching them and ran away in the chaos.”
Number Seven Mental Hospital was under the direct jurisdiction of 117 and used to treat Espers whose minds were tainted.
“So, another Esper also escaped?” Chi Jiao blinked her big, sparkling eyes at Pei Yao.
Although her tone was very soft, Pei Yao felt inexplicably ashamed.
She nodded and smiled apologetically. “It was the staff’s negligence that allowed them to escape successfully. Those staff members were also punished accordingly.”
“Miss Chi, I think Zou Xingxing should be the one feeling afraid now, right?” Huo Chen finally came back to his senses.
“If she comes looking for me, I’ll definitely bring her to justice,” Chi Jiao said with a smile.
Huo Chen believed that she had the ability.
After all, one couldn’t depend on just luck or powerful connections to become an intern manager of 117.
“Sister Pei Yao, have you always been in charge of Zou Xingxing’s matter?” Chi Jiao asked.
Pei Yao nodded. “I’m also in charge of capturing her again.”
“I believe in Sister Pei Yao’s ability,” Chi Jiao said with a smile. “I hope that we can capture Zou Xingxing and the other Esper within three days. After all, the longer the two of them stay outside, the more dangerous it will be for ordinary people without supernatural powers, don’t you think so?”
Three days was indeed a little tight, but Pei Yao still nodded without hesitation. “I understand. I will definitely capture those two within three days.”
She was just as worried as Chi Jiao.
Zou Xingxing had been treated in the mental hospital for so long, but her mental condition did not improve. Instead, it became worse than before.
She didn’t tell Chi Jiao.
Zou Xingxing drew a portrait of her every day. Her ward was already filled with Chi Jiao’s portraits.
Her obsession with Chi Jiao had already reached a perverse level.
And it was accompanied by a delusion..
