“It looks like we can’t just assign any normal person to watch over Xu Ye. When She Qi attacks, an ordinary person will die in the crossfire.” Quan Jue’s expression stiffened.
He wasn’t mincing his words, and Chi Jiao also placed high importance on this matter. “We can ask the headquarters to send someone over. However, protecting Xu Ye like that isn’t a long-term solution.”
As long as Bai Wanxi’s remnant consciousness was in Xu Ye’s body, She Qi wouldn’t let him off. Unless they took it out, there would be no end to this matter.
However, it was currently not possible to retrieve that remnant consciousness. The headquarters had no solution. They couldn’t guarantee the safe removal of that remnant consciousness.
Just as the three of them were at a loss, the little heart suddenly said, “Master, leave it to me. I have a way to remove the remnant consciousness.”
“Oh my god!” Pei Yao was shocked. Her heart almost jumped out of her throat as she stood up. “Jiaojiao, what’s going on? Whose voice was that?”
“It’s a long story. Sit down and I’ll explain to you.” With that, Chi Jiao told Pei Yao everything about the little heart.
Of course, this also included the contents of the diary and the sense of familiarity she and Quan Jue had with Bai Wanxi.
Pei Yao had been at the headquarters with Xu Ye the whole time. Although she was in contact with Beitang Lie, that fellow never had anything serious to say when talking to her.
Therefore, Pei Yao was completely dumbstruck by Chi Jiao’s narration of her mind-blowing encounter.
“That was what happened. Jiaojiao and I both feel that Bai Wanxi is not an ordinary person. Moreover, according to her diary, she didn’t like She Qi,” Quan Jue said with certainty.
“So, Bai Wanxi isn’t a bad person?” Pei Yao looked at them in confusion.
Chi Jiao and Quan Jue shook their heads. But then Chi Jiao sighed. “Then again, we can’t confirm that. Who knows if the Bai Wanxi in the diary changed? After hundreds of years, no one can guarantee that she’s still the same.”
Chi Jiao lowered her eyes, her sparkling eyes filled with disappointment.
She didn’t know what was going on. At the thought that Bai Wanxi might have changed and might not be the same Bai Wanxi as before, Chi Jiao felt as if a knife was twisting in her heart.
“However, the thing that surprised me the most was this stone. This is the first time I’ve seen a stone with self-awareness.” Pei Yao looked at the little heart in amazement.
The little heart noticed her kind gaze and spoke up in a bright voice. “Hehe, thank you for the praise, Sister.”
“Are you sure you have the ability to take out Bai Wanxi’s remnant consciousness if we can gather all four stones?” Quan Jue asked.
The little heart floated up unsteadily and said confidently, “Of course! I’m a good baby who doesn’t know how to lie!”
“It looks like we have to find a way to get the third stone first.” Chi Jiao couldn’t wait anymore. “No, I have to call Officer Huo.”
Her phone rang just as she said that.
She took it out and saw that it was Huo Chen.
Chi Jiao answered the call and turned on the speaker. She heard Huo Chen’s voice on the other end of the line.
