Xue Xi’s eyes were cold as she went downstairs. She saw Ji Silin, who had always been gentle in his pair of golden glasses, standing under a tree.

  If she did not know that there was someone there, it would be very easy to miss seeing anything clearly.

  She slowly walked over.

  When she reached Ji Silin, she sighed. “Brother Silin, why are you here?”


  Ji Silin smiled. “You’re leaving tomorrow. I’m sending you off.”


  He pointed at the bench nearby. “Shall we go over and sit for a while?”


  “Sure.”


  Ji Silin turned around, but in the next moment, he felt someone grabbing his wrist. When he turned around, he saw a small flame aimed at him from Xue Xi’s palm.

  Xue Xi’s voice was very cold. “Brother Silin, don’t move. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee that I won’t hurt you.”


  Ji Silin pursed his lips and looked a little lonely.

  That exquisite face was filled with disbelief. “Lass, you want to capture me?”


  Xue Xi nodded. “As a member of the special department, it’s also my responsibility to capture Zi He!”


  Ji Silin stared at her.

  Under the moonlight, the neon lights outside flickered. Outside the gated neighborhood, it was very lively, but it was quiet and peaceful inside.

  Seeing that he did not move again, Xue Xi took out a pair of handcuffs from her pocket and cuffed him to herself before removing the flame in her hand.

  Ji Silin sighed. “Xixi, I didn’t expect that between him and me, you would ultimately choose to trust him more.”


  Xue Xi did not speak.

  Ji Silin clenched his jaw. “Are you keeping in mind that in the world of espers, everyone has an infinite mask? You will never understand a person.”


  Xue Xi turned her head. “Brother Silin, what I believe is not him but my eyes.”


  She was not stupid.

  At the crucial moment, Brother Silin went to look for Xiang Huai. His goal had been to stall for time.

  Although Xiang Huai did not say anything about Ji Silin after the incident, she understood.

  Ji Silin might also have been following orders, but he was indeed one of those people. He was even one of the three Protectors, Zi He!

  Ji Silin’s other hand, which was not cuffed, suddenly touched Xue Xi’s hair. He said in the gentlest voice in the world, “Xixi, if I say that I’ve never hurt anyone, would you believe me?”


  Would you believe me?

  Brother Silin had always been very gentle. He was a doctor who had helped many people. He was also in the Moguls’ Group……

  Just as Xue Xi was thinking this, a familiar electric current suddenly assaulted her……

  This feeling jolted her awake.

  This was how her body felt when she was instinctively learning other people’s special abilities!

  However!

  There were two conditions for her to learn other people’s special abilities. First, she had to have physical contact. Second, the other party had to use their special power.

  This meant that Brother Silin had used his special power on her!

  She instinctively took a step back and shook her head, chasing away the words that Brother Silin had just said from her mind.

  In her daze, she heard Ji Silin say, “Xixi, don’t trust anyone.”


  When she returned to her senses, she realized that the other end of the handcuffs was not on Ji Silin but on a tree beside him.

  Xue Xi scolded herself for being careless.

  She took out her keys and unlocked her handcuffs before heading upstairs.

  After taking two steps, she suddenly stopped.

  Why did it feel like Brother Silin came here to give her his special ability?……

  The next day, a group of eight—oh, no, seven people and a cat—boarded the private plane to the International Esper Academy.

  After twelve hours of twists and turns, the plane finally arrived in Country M.

  After getting off the plane, they saw a stylish university entrance. The door seemed to be engraved with some spell, making them feel fearful.

  When they reached the door, they saw an old man who was positively ancient. He was wearing a robe, and there were so many wrinkles on his face that they could not see his original appearance.

  In his hand was a tray with eight glasses of water. He said in English, “My dear companions, this is a drug to suppress your special ability. You need to drink it during school.

  “Be good. Don’t resist. This is what every student has to do.”


  The rest looked at Xue Xi.

  Xue Xi raised her eyebrows and took the lead to drink it.

  Mhm, this taste was a little similar to the “vitamins” she used to take.

  In the country.

  Jing Fei lay lazily on the table and sighed silently. “It’s the first day since Sister Xi left. I miss her.”


  “It’s the day after Sister Xi left. I miss her.”
……

  “It’s the fifth day after Sister Xi left. I miss her.”
……

  “It’s the tenth day after Sister Xi left. I miss her.”
……

  “It’s the fifteenth day after Sister Xi left. I miss her.”


  Lu Chao: “.……Are you also saying this for Boss?”


  Jing Fei sighed. “No, I……”


  Before he could finish speaking, a message came from the door. “Captain Jing, Nicholas is here!”


  Jing Fei was stunned and stood up abruptly. “Everyone, be on guard!”
