Chapter 498: Is She an Esper Too?

What else do you know? Zhen Xiaoqings tone was obviously not as steady as before.

Under Chi Jiaos indifferent gaze, she felt as though she had been stripped naked.

It was as if nothing could be hidden from this young girl.

Your daughter is in your home state of Niu Shan, Chi Jiao said with a smile.

Zhen Xiaoqing sucked in a deep breath and looked at Chi Jiher with a surprised expression. Who exactly are you?

How did this girl know about her private matters?

Was she an Esper too?

However, she had never heard of an Esper who could divine the past and futures of other people.

You should be well aware by now what kind of person I am. Zhen Xiaoqing, other than cooperating with our investigation, you have no other choice. Chi Jiao looked at her calmly.

One must always. .h.i.t the opponent where it would hurt the most.

Zhen Xiaoqings weak point had been firmly grasped by Chi Jiao.

She had actually forgotten.

It would be fine if she died, but what about her daughter?

She didnt want her daughter to know that she was a murderer. She couldnt accept that.

Thinking of this, Zhen Xiaoqings expression wavered.

If you cooperate with us to search for the Soul Stones whereabouts, perhaps you can die a more dignified death, Chi Jiao said slowly.

The mistakes that Zhen Xiaoqing had made could only be repaid with her life.

Otherwise, it would be unfair to the people she had killed.

The only thing she could give Zhen Xiaoqing now was to allow her to die with dignity. She would seal all of her files and keep her crimes a secret.

It looks like even if I cooperate with you, I wont be able to escape death. Zhen Xiaoqing suddenly felt a bit sad.

Chi Jiao nodded.

Can you give me some time to think about it? Zhen Xiaoqing asked.

I will give you until tomorrow. By then, even if you dont want to reveal it, I can still find the person holding the Soul Stone. Chi Jiaos soft and harmless face carried a faint smile.

Through Zhen Xiaoqings memories, she had roughly figured out when she had evolved into an Esper with dual abilities.

She had ascertained that Zhen Xiaoqing had come into contact with the Soul Stone, which was why she had become a dual-ability mutant.

The Soul Stone could emit a powerful magnetic field power, but it didnt mean that one could become a dual-ability Esper immediately after coming into contact with it. The process required a certain amount of time.

An Esper with a weak const.i.tution and mental strength needed a week to evolve.

On the contrary, Espers with strong const.i.tutions and mental strength would require even more time.

This was because the mutation was caused by the radiation emitted by the special magnetic field. Hence, it was actually easier to mutate people with weaker const.i.tutions and mental strength.

From Zhen Xiaoqings memories, Chi Jiao knew that she had only evolved after interacting with a certain mysterious man a week ago.

In Zhen Xiaoqings memories, the mysterious man never revealed his appearance. Every time, he would appear wearing a large black cloak.

Hence, Chi Jiao suspected that the man was linked to the Soul Stone.

Zhen Xiaoqing didnt dare to underestimate her.

She felt that this seemingly gentle and sweet girl was like a little devil that could cut through the darkness.

Chi Jiao didnt intend to remain here any longer. She arranged for You Yin to stay here and guard Zhen Xiaoqing before leaving with Beitang Lie.

Beitang Lie offered to send her back, but Chi Jiao rejected.

It was already dark, and she reckoned that Quan Jue should be home.

Hence, she chose to take a taxi back herself.

Chi Jiao didnt expect Beitang Lie to follow her to her house.

Boss. Chi Jiao was about to open the door when she heard Beitang Lies voice behind her.

She turned around and saw him getting off his motorcycle and walking towards her.
