865: Why Didn’t You Stop Him?

Why Didn’t You Stop Him?

Zhou Qiuhao struggled for a moment, but he couldn't break free. He could only glare at Chi Jiao indignantly.2

"I'm an intern manager at 117. I've already seen your information. I believe you've already interacted with 117, right?" Chi Jiao blinked innocently, her tone as soft as a harmless little bunny. "You don't have to be so vigilant against me. I want to help Su Lan because I think he's a good person. Do you know that in the future, Su Lan will jump off a building and commit suicide after attending your funeral? You don't want to see him die with you, right?"

"Of course not…! Why did he commit suicide? No, I have to persuade him." Zhou Qiuhao panicked. He could tell that Chi Jiao was not an ordinary person. He didn't care if what she said was true or not. He couldn't take the risk.

"Don't be anxious. It won't be too late to talk to him after you've answered my questions." With that, Chi Jiao sat down by the bed. "How did you die?"

"My supernatural power awakened and caused a mental problem. I don't know how my parents found out about this. They sent me to a hospital to treat mental illnesses. But that mental hospital is a fraud. They abused all the patients. I wanted to escape and contact Su Lan, but I was discovered. In order to punish me, the hospital director electrocuted me. In the end, they made a mistake with the electricity settings and I died just like that." Zhou Qiuhao's eyes were filled with intense hatred.

"Don't your parents know how you died? They didn't seek justice for you?" Chi Jiao asked in surprise.

"My parents objected to me living with Su Lan. They've always wanted me to go home and be a young master who won't cause any trouble for the family. To them, I'm just a plaything. They have so many children, and they don't care if one of them dies. Rather than taking revenge for me, they're unwilling to let my death stain the family reputation. Therefore, they won't pursue the matter. In this world, there are times when friends care about you more than family. I've been dead for so long. No one cares about what happened to me. Only Su Lan. He looked for me for so long…" Zhou Qiuhao lowered his head in disappointment.

"You don't have much time left. Even if you're an Esper, the remnants of your consciousness can only last seven days at most. Four days have passed since you died, and you only have three days left. Are you sure you don't want to make things clear to Su Lan?" Chi Jiao's voice was very gentle as she reminded him.

"I actually thought that I hated that quack hospital director and wanted to take revenge on him. That's why my spirit didn't disperse after I died. But for some reason, I came back here. I don't want Su Lan to know about my death. I knew that he definitely wouldn't be able to take it. I wanted to leave. But when I saw him looking for me like he had gone crazy, I couldn't bear to be so ruthless." With that, Zhou Qiuhao sighed heavily.

"Whether you want to tell him or not is up to you." After Chi Jiao said that, she heard the sound of the door closing.

There was a loud bang.

"Chi Jiao." Shen Xing was knocking on the door. "Su Lan went out with Zhou Qiuhao's photo. He said he wanted to get some fresh air, but I think he's heading towards the rooftop."

Chi Jiao rushed over to open the door and saw Shen Xing standing calmly outside. "Why didn't you stop him? He's clearly going to do something stupid!"
