Huo Ling didn’t expect her words to completely convince the head nurse. She simply said, “Head nurse, you can be dubious of what I said. I’m just feeling guilty for ever thinking that she was insane, and I wanted to clarify for her. I have a good relationship with you, and I wouldn’t have revealed all of this if it wasn’t to you.”
The head nurse stared at Huo Ling for a long time. “Forget it, and just sign the leave of absence slip. No matter what happened today, don’t tell anyone else. Miss Qiao is no ordinary patient. If you reveal too much, it will cause trouble…”
Huo Ling nodded. “I know.”
The head nurse granted her a leave of absence, and after taking it to the head of the hospital to sign, Huo Ling received the slip and left.
The head nurse didn’t really believe her.
Huo Ling was a mentally stable girl, so even if she was traumatized, she wouldn’t simply involve Qiao Jin for no reason.
Forget it! Even if Qiao Jin was that convincing, she, as a head nurse, dared not dig too deeply.
This incident was just a small episode. Qiao Fei got the results of Qiao Jin’s checkup, but it was somewhat puzzling.
Qiao Jin had been hospitalized at the time, and the report about her drug usage was real. Now, however, there were no longer any toxins in her body.
It had only been ten days since she’d attempted suicide.
If it weren’t for the hospital’s own reporting system, she would have suspected that the results were a joke.
However, she was tough, and it was a good thing that Qiao Jin was well.
Few people knew about this matter. As long as the word didn’t spread, no one would know that her daughter had had such an ‘episode.’
As long as she was healthy, everything was fine.
Song Yanqing’s twenty-fifth birthday banquet was just around the corner. This was a big event, and the entire imperial capital was paying attention. Qiao Fei only needed to keep an eye on Qiao Jin and make sure she didn’t blabber nonsense.

“Still haven’t found it?”
In the dim basement, several people watched the results that had just come out.
“No.”
Cao Yikai’s expression was stern. “It has been reviewed dozens of times, and it was confirmed that there was no Seed of Spirituality in his body.”
“That’s impossible!”
The girl who was talking looked young and fashionable, a bit like a student.
She looked a little confused: “It’s obvious that he did all those things in the mall, and he himself admitted it. How could he be a Spiritualist without a Seed of Spirituality?”
“But this is the truth, and there is indeed no Seed of Spirituality.”
A tall, beautiful woman wearing a white lab coat, black-rimmed glasses, and a sleek ponytail said coldly, “Our investigation results are never wrong, so either he lied, or something we didn’t want to happen has happened.”
Cao Yikai looked at the aloof woman with the ponytail and asked in a dry voice, “Group leader, what do you mean by that?”
The woman with a ponytail sneered. “Someone took the Seed of Spirituality. The type of monster we fear the most has appeared.”
It was frightening for someone to be able to seize another person’s Seed of Spirituality.
Moreover, the man who’d had his Seed of Spirituality stolen hadn’t shown any abnormalities.
That meant that the monster had the power to restore the demonized Spiritualist back to normal.
As far as they knew, this had been impossible to achieve for the past several decades.
No, perhaps it had been impossible for the entire existence of the spiritual world.
There were special existences under the calm vortex of this era. Ordinary humans wouldn’t know, but in reality, not only humans existed in this world, but special species of humans existed, too.
They were called Spiritualists.
