Chapter 844 We Have to Go to the Hospital First
“Auntie, I don’t have time to explain to you now. We have to go to the hospital first!” Xu Ye quickly said before running out of the house with Beitang Lie on his back.
Lu Xian didn’t know what had happened. She turned to look at the tragic scene in the room and was stunned.
The room was not just messy. It was in tatters. The bed boards were broken and the walls were caved in. The floor was covered in broken gla.s.s. Just the sight alone was shocking. “Was… was there a fight or a demolition?” Lu Xian was stunned.
At the same time, Lu Xian was puzzled.
She didn’t hear a single sound. How did these children tear down the room like this?
Lu Xian didn’t know that there were such things as barriers. Worried, she chased after the group. Chi Jiao and the others soon sent Beitang Lie to the hospital. His injuries were serious. Two of his ribs were broken, and his arm bones were fractured. Coupled with his external injuries, he would need over 10 days to recover.
Xu Ye felt very guilty and took the initiative to bear all of Beitang Lie’s medical expenses.
Actually, he didn’t have to pay the medical fee, but Chi Jiao saw that he was feeling guilty and agreed to it in order to make him feel better.
Beitang Lie was fine. As an Esper, his self-healing ability was far above ordinary people. There was nothing to worry about. Chi Jiao gave Beitang Lie a few days off while she went to 117 to settle things as usual.
Quan Jue was still investigating She Qi. Chi Jiao called him and realized that his phone was out of range. It was obvious that Quan Jue had gone to some remote place.
This made Chi Jiao miss him even more.
She sat at the table and sighed. She held her chin with both hands and stared at her phone in a daze.
Pei Yao entered the office and noticed her expression. “Jiaojiao, I don’t have to guess. You must be thinking of Mr. Quan Jue, right?”
In terms of age, it would not be unreasonable for Pei Yao to call Quan Jue “little brother”. However, Quan Jue exuded an aura such that Pei Yao did not dare to. Right from the beginning, she had always called him “Mr. Quan Jue”. Pei Yao had guessed right. Chi Jiao sighed pitifully. “Sister Pei Yao, look at you. You’ve been hanging out with Beitang Lie all day. You’ve been influenced by him.” Hearing this, Pai Yao’s face turned red. She argued, “Jiaojiao, you’re so annoying. What do you mean by hanging out with Beitang Lie all day? I’m me, he’s him.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Whatever you say.” Chi Jiao was busy thinking about Quan Jue and had no time to bicker with her.
Chi Jiao was really listless. Pei Yao picked up a wooden box and placed it on the desk. “Don’t be dejected. Come, quickly take a look at what I brought you.”
Chi Jiao opened the wooden box and took a look. Indeed, she was instantly interested.
Inside the wooden box was the black box Chi Jiao had found earlier. It was small but exquisite. It looked airtight, and no keyhole could be seen. She didn’t know how to open it.
Pei Yao looked at her expression and guessed that she must be interested. She smiled and said, “This thing couldn’t travel by air, so it took a few days before it finally arrived. I know you’re interested in this thing, so I immediately brought it to you after receiving it.”
“Thank you, Sister Pei Yao.” Chi Jiao smiled. Pei Yao stood rooted to the ground and stuttered as if she was struggling with words.
