Chapter 497: Chapter 497: No One Will Have It Easy
Another wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Qin Youxuan’s eyes flashed and she sat back down.
Her spirited cat-like eyes stared at him.
She just wanted to see Dan Hanjie, she didn’t want to wait a second longer.
“What did the person who set the trap for Hanjie say to you?” Diwu Zexuan asked, completely disregarding Qin Youxuan’s anger and speaking directly.
“…Are you referring to Wu Qing?”
Qin Youxuan was taken aback and then tried hard to remember.
“He’s mad, speaking nonsense. I have no idea what he was trying to convey. I only remember him saying that Dan Hanjie and he are from the same world, and he has come to take Hanjie back…”
Qin Youxuan’s voice abruptly stopped. The next second, she abruptly looked up, her eyes full of excitement as she looked at Diwu Zexuan.
Diwu Zexuan seemed to have thought of something as well. He took out his phone, quickly dialing a number.
“Investigate the patients in the psychiatric hospital where Hanjie used to be… Yes, I will send you the age range and facial characteristics, and you must be quick.”
“The man said his name was Wu Qing. I don’t know if that’s his real name, but I’m sure of his appearance. We don’t need a sketch, just check against Bai Huo’s appearance.”
Qin Youxuan, on the side, quickly followed up.
Hearing her words, Diwu Zexuan’s gaze clearly faltered for a few seconds before he continued with his instructions.
After hanging up the phone, he just sat there, steadily staring at her.
“Did I say something wrong?” Qin Youxuan looked herself up and down. Nothing seemed amiss.
She touched her face, there was nothing dirty on it.
Why was he looking at her with such a strange expression?
“Are you sure that the man named Wu Qing looks exactly like Bai Huo?” Diwu Zexuan finally broke the silence after a long while, his eyes showing a hint of depth.
“Yes, they really look similar, but their temperament is completely different. Why do you ask?”
“When I first met Hanjie, he was in a very unstable state. He basically had no friends, only Bai Huo would get close to him. The situation in the Dan Family was chaotic at the time. To help Hanjie ascend to the top, I used hypnosis to block his memories after the age of seven. The only person who knew about this was Bai Huo.”
Not only had a dead man mysteriously come back to life, even secrets from that time were starting to disclose.
The world was becoming more and more surreal.
“…Do you also think that Bai Huo isn’t dead?”
“I only believe in science. Many things that seem strange and incomprehensible can find a reasonable explanation after removing the mystery. If there’s no explanation, I’d rather call it a miracle.”
Diwu Zexuan spoke leisurely, inheriting that bit of roguishness. “Hanjie’s memories have now been restored, which has caused his personality to change drastically. Everyone in the Dan Group is in great danger. I’m afraid no one will have an easy time in the days to come.”
“Can’t you hypnotize him again?”
Qin Youxuan bit her lip and asked anxiously.
The Dan Hanjie who has recovered his memory, even she felt afraid of him.
“I’ve never approved of solving problems through forgetting. The situation back then was exceptional, due to the circumstances we had to resort to this. But now, this approach has become Hanjie’s vulnerability, like a time bomb. No one knows how long we can hide it. If his memories keep getting stimulated, he might really go crazy.”
He had long wanted to try and have Dan Hanjie recover his memories but without full confidence that he could control his condition, he had yet to take action.
Now someone had done him this favor, it could be considered as a blessing in disguise.
Diwu Zexuan stood up from the chair, “Let’s go, you wanted to see him. I’ll take you there, but you’d better be prepared….”
