Chapter 1950: Chapter 1948: License Plate Number

Qin Yize quietly curled the corners of his mouth.

Gu Qiaoqiao slightly closed her eyes and began communicating with the Old Locust Tree.

One minute later, Gu Qiaoqiao slowly opened her eyes; indeed, the Old Locust Tree had seen everything.

At the moment dusk arrived, a large mass of black mist suddenly appeared beside Dongdong, then engulfed him, and afterward, the black mist disappeared at the gate.

However, the black mist sneaked into a red small car parked outside the villa area.

Then the red car quickly drove away, vanishing amidst the vast stream of traffic.

As for the license plate number, surprisingly, the Old Locust Tree remembered it, after all, it had lived here for more than 180 years, not speaking of great changes in the world, but it had witnessed the vicissitudes of society.

Everything here, after it gained sentience, was seen by it, from the humble beginnings of small houses slowly leading to a bustling landscape, to today’s ever-changing life.

In the past, horse carriages and donkey carts passed through here, later tricycles and rickshaws, now various colored small cars are the ones passing by.

Thus, remembering license plate numbers became the lone hobby of the Old Locust Tree standing here.

This can be considered a pleasant surprise.

In her consciousness, Gu Qiaoqiao softly said to it, "I’ll give you a bit more Spiritual Energy as a gesture of thanks."

The Old Locust Tree happily shook its branches; Gu Qiaoqiao placed both her hands on it, her forefinger releasing pure white Spiritual Energy, silently injecting it into the trunk. She knew she couldn’t inject too much, although the Old Locust Tree was eager enough to follow Gu Qiaoqiao, it knew that currently wasn’t possible.

But Gu Qiaoqiao promised to later find a place rich in Spiritual Energy for it; after all, here, being a human habitation, Spiritual Energy is nearly nonexistent.

Getting into the car, Gu Qiaoqiao relayed what the Old Locust Tree said to Qin Yize, then took out pen and paper to write down the license plate number. Qin Yize immediately made a call, and ten minutes later, the phone rang back. After the call, Qin Yize’s brows furrowed involuntarily, with a hint of chill. He looked at Gu Qiaoqiao and said in a low voice, "Qiaoqiao, do you know who the owner of that car is?"

"Who is it?"

"Choo Lan."

Gu Qiaoqiao froze for a moment, not expecting it was her, then thought of the black malevolent energy above her head; it seems this also needs to be resolved, and quickly. This night is destined to be sleepless.

"What should we do now? Go to Choo Lan directly or investigate for evidence?"

Qin Yize pondered for a moment; this matter was tricky, as the Old Locust Tree’s words couldn’t be used as testimony.

Hence, no reason or excuse existed to search Choo Lan’s house, and even if she took Dongdong, he likely wouldn’t be at her residence, so before we find out more, we can’t act rashly.

He called Nie Luan. Nie Luan was involved in this and played a leading role, but it was all secret, belonging to high-level confidentiality, unnoticed by anyone.

Upon receiving the call, Nie Luan was shaken. Regardless of whether the Old Locust Tree’s words could serve as testimony, it was already considered testimony on their side. Having a lead is inherently better than knowing nothing, so orders were immediately issued for all forces to mobilize.

Yet, he wanted to meet Gu Qiaoqiao, to learn more.

But Qin Yize calmly said, "Discuss with her over the phone, we have things to do shortly."

Saying things over the phone was fortunate enough; Qin Yize handed the phone to Gu Qiaoqiao, and from the phone, Nie Luan’s anxious voice emerged, "Do you think the black mist is something you can handle?"

If Gu Qiaoqiao could manage it, there would be hope for this matter; if even she couldn’t, it would be troublesome.

After all, in terms of ability, Gu Qiaoqiao is the strongest right now.

Gu Qiaoqiao pondered for a moment, answering seriously, "I haven’t seen it personally, so can’t confirm. But rest assured, if I can handle it, I’ll definitely eradicate it."

This mass of black mist took Dongdong away; if she found it, even if she couldn’t handle it, she’d fight it, there’s no way she’d let it go.

What isn’t clear is whether the black mist is independent or controlled by Choo Lan, but Gu Qiaoqiao doesn’t think Choo Lan has the ability to control it.

"Alright, we’ll start monitoring Choo Lan now and notify you and President Qin of any developments immediately."

The other line was cut off; evidently, Nie Luan was quite anxious. Gu Qiaoqiao handed the phone back to Qin Yize, straightforwardly said, "Ah Ze, first let’s find Lin Qinghuan. Don’t worry, the new talisman I researched will be effective. If we truly can’t defeat her, we have space to escape."

Since Gu Qiaoqiao spoke this way, Qin Yize stayed silent for a moment, started the car, and headed towards the Qin Family’s Courtyard.

"Not sure if Lin Qinghuan is related to this; if I can control her later, think of a way to find out."

In Gu Qiaoqiao’s intuition, the likelihood that Lin Qinghuan’s Spiritual Body is connected to this matter is quite high.

At such times, Gu Qiaoqiao chose to trust the intuition given by the Soul Mentor, so she sought Lin Qinghuan instead of Choo Lan.

After all, Choo Lan had a legitimate identity, a lawful profession; without strong evidence, they couldn’t even search her residence.

Even if they rushed up to capture Choo Lan, if she refused to admit, no solution would be possible.

Ultimately, they’d be counter-bitten, but it wasn’t an issue for Lin Qinghuan’s Spiritual Body.

In this Mystic Sect world, if Gu Qiaoqiao wished, she could even set the rules.

As Qin Yize was driving, after a few words, both fell silent; soon the car arrived near the Qin Family’s Courtyard. Gu Qiaoqiao concentrated all her spiritual power observing the surroundings, then found the Heaven-reaching Talisman’s usage time was still effective.

She estimated internally that the usage time should last at least ten hours.

Even if the time is short, it doesn’t matter; she can draw at any time.

However, near the Qin Family’s Courtyard, she didn’t see Lin Qinghuan’s Spiritual Body. After getting out of the car, Gu Qiaoqiao walked towards where Lin Qinghuan appeared, naturally followed by Qin Yize.

The spot where Lin Qinghuan stood was a dark and secluded place, from which the Qin Family’s Courtyard gate could be seen afar. Of course, only Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize with special abilities could see it.

Ordinary people couldn’t see it unless using a telescope; after all, the distance of 500 meters is barely a mile.
