Translator: Lonelytree
The mountainous forest around the Spell Department’s base rustled from the early auturound Half an hour ago, Gu Jun received the update fro that the Spirit Child had been escorted from Eastern State Division by a Special Mobile Force unit After the Spirit Child arrived, they were sequestered inside an interrogation roo heavily monitored Currently members from the Special Mobile Force and Spell Departation room
Gu Jun pushed open the room’s steel door, walked in and closed the door behind hiot on this Spirit Child As predicted by Dirty-irl She was 21 years old and her naation room was decorated more like a small studio, with homely furniture and decoration but ere conspicuouslywo table She turned to the sound of the door opening The woman was dressed plainly She had a slender fra hair was casually tied into a ponytail She appeared calm, even serene like she was clueless to her imprisonment
Gu Jun stared at her pair of dark eyes and so ? Or it was the sensation of h the same difficult childhood as he did? The realization that he was not alone in this ordeal… The shared ehtened the pressure on his shoulders Perhaps thishis an
“The pleasure is htly “You are once a Spirit Child, yes?”
Gu Jun’s heart skipped but he showed nothing on the surface, ensuring that he revealed not even a shi+ft in his micro expression, “Why would you say that?” Naturally no one briefed Deng Xi transferred here, in fact, she was not even told that she was at the Spell Department’s base After the severe consequence caused by her previous revelation, she spent the last year in a state of confinement She was not exposed to any news and had no idea what happened beyond the four walls which housed her
“We are different” Deng Ximei suddenly uttered, “Very different” She was a woman of few years and her sound was like a barely discernible night breeze It was not strong enough to bend the trees but it was cold enough to slip into people’s hearts
“How so?” Gu Jun asked evenly even though he already knew the answer According to Phecda’s files, Deng Ximei had access to mental impressions… These impressions were not as intense as illusion and they were not as far-fetched as Dirty-minded Yu’s synaesthesia In her apparent bleakness, Gu Jun saw his former self… the self who drowned in a sense of homelessness

But perhaps because of that very reason, Gu Jun found her story hard to believe
“Different is different” Deng Ximei did not elaborate as she turned her face away
When asked, she ade and there was no ritual of divine evocation in herCoh hypnosis “Then do you knoho I a Ximei turned to study Gu Jun, nize you even though I believe I should…” Gu Jun studied her back, but the more he did, the more confused he beca’s overt personality This young woman before him was shrouded in a complicated self-enclosure, it was as if a wall had been built around her It was the reason why Phecda cah they studied her closely for half a year already Based on the personality assess Xi deterh spirituality
It reflected in her way of life In spite of her imprisonment, she did not turn towards hard work to prove herself like wang Ruoxiang nor did she surrender to vices like Wu Siyu, instead she spent her days gardening, reading and writing She was perfectly at ease The wonable, the outer world did notstimulus from the other world
Gu Jun still had trouble understanding her statement of ‘we are different’ Was it supposed to be literal or the ‘we’ referred to both of them as in the Spirit Children are different and thus superior fro stone before She passed the test,she bore no hts
“Miss Deng, s have occurred in the past year” Gu Jun said as he watched her closely “Many innocents have died Tragedies occurred all over the world These incidents are all related to Lai Sheng Company I have read your files, and you believe it was the people fro Company who killed your parents If that is true, I wonder if you wish to take revenge on Lai Sheng Co Xihtly…
“My name is Gu Jun” Gu Jun said darkly, “I, for one, will do everything in my power to crush the Ximei’s eyes lit up “Gu Jun, Gu Jun… So it is you” Gu Jun blinked ‘This girl really knows ?’ In any case, he had no ht have forgotten it but I haven’t” Deng Ximei reverted to her usual unmoved self, albeit with a trace of disappointment “I really did not expect ould be reunited like this”
“Oh?” Gu Jun stared at her and focused hischildren flashed before his eyes…
