Chapter 214 Why Didn’t Continue Your Research Path
"I woke up in the middle of the night and received another call from Zhong Yao."

"Zhong Yao?" Weisheng Jue Ling was startled, and then said with a little emotion, "I haven't heard this name for so many years."

Then, as if he had grasped the point, he asked, "And then?"

"He asked me to go downstairs, but when I went out, I found no one outside. Later I called back the number. The number was real, but the person who answered the call was a stranger." Xie Yuqing clicked on the phone while talking. Voice memo, "Fortunately, I recorded that call..."

Seeing her movements, Weisheng Jue Ling's hand holding the edge of the bowl suddenly tightened a little.

Xie Yuqing clicked play.

However, the only thing that came out was the noise of an electric current.

"Hey, why can't I hear you clearly?" Xie Yuqing exited puzzled, clicked play again, and turned up the volume.

Still only a loud electrical noise.

Wei Sheng Jue Ling let go of his hand without leaving any trace, stroked the pattern on the edge of the bowl and said, "Is it an illusion again?"

"There must have been a phone call." Xie Yuqing said firmly, "Besides, what I heard must be Zhong Yao's voice."

Weisheng Jue Ling asked in surprise, "Why are you so sure? Could it be that you were given hallucinogens at that time and had auditory hallucinations."

"I suspected it too, but I can't figure it out..." She paused.

From before to now, Zhong Yao's identity has always been a mystery.

Other people's names and familiar faces, even when I think about it now, are still weird everywhere.

"Can't figure out what?" Weisheng Jue Ling asked.

"It's nothing, I just thought of something." Xie Yuqing smiled, and put the phone back in her bag, "Forget it, anyway, what should come will always come."

She picked up the spoon and drank the chicken soup in mouthfuls.

Weisheng Jue Ling looked at her as if nothing had happened, and couldn't help saying, "Actually, it's not difficult to find the person who poisoned it. Huno's hallucinogenic ingredients are banned in China, and there are only a few companies that distribute it globally."

"Then why didn't you call the police yesterday?" Xie Yuqing asked back seemingly unintentionally.

Wei Shengjue paused for a moment, but said with a smile, "Who made your friend too nervous? I heard that he took you back when I came back from the house inspection."

Xie Yuqing was a little surprised by his answer.

And he went on to say, "If you want to look it up, I can help you."

"No hurry." Xie Yuqing shrugged and continued to drink the chicken soup, "I have a hunch, that person will appear by himself."

Well, this chicken soup is really delicious.

Her indifferent and determined expression made Weisheng Jue Ling chuckle, "You have changed a lot."

"People always grow up."

"I mean, you're cuter when you cry."

Xie Yuqing couldn't take it anymore, "...don't mention that kind of thing again."

The heavy topic came to an end, and they chatted about homework.

"You're a game coach now?"

"Ah."

"Why didn't you continue your research path?"

Xie Yuqing didn't mention her symptoms, she laughed and said, "The interest has changed, now that the e-sports industry is so developed, I changed my career."

Then he looked up at him again, "By the way, where did you go back then? What happened later and there is no news."

To this, Weisheng Juling's reaction was, "That matter... don't mention it."

"What about the thing you gave me? Do you want more?"

"You still keep it?" A trace of surprise flashed in Weisheng Juling's eyes, he shook his head and said, "Leave it there, maybe it will come in handy in the future."
