Chapter 1083: Chapter 1052: A Wisp of Soul, Interrogation

The plane crash involving He Tiantian caused a huge sensation and attracted widespread attention.

Bai Qiongyu, He Jingyu, Wang Shuping, Huo Zhekun, Jiang Lifang, and others were all very shocked and saddened, fearing the worst for He Tiantian...

Under Huo Yingjie’s strong insistence, he followed the rescue team to the sea.

Since this was within the bounds of the East Sea, Huo Yingjie found it somewhat more convenient to operate.

Huo Yingjie had his original body out searching for He Tiantian, but this couldn’t be known to others. The duplicate of himself that had been left at home also set out to search, to provide some comfort to his parents and parents-in-law, since they obviously couldn’t be allowed to conduct a sea search.

As a husband, it was necessary to maintain a proper attitude and take action.

However, this arrangement turned out to be a good one. When Huo Yingjie finally emerged with He Tiantian, he directly took her to an island.

Huo Yingjie guided his duplicate, along with Cui Ying and others, to hurry over.

When everyone was not paying attention, he merged with his duplicate, perfectly legitimizing the rescue of He Tiantian.

Around He Tiantian’s neck hung the whistle previously placed there by Wei Yuanyuan, so when she saw a light, He Tiantian blew the whistle loudly.

The boat quickly reached the vicinity of the desolate island, and Huo Yingjie frowned, saying, "I think I heard a whistle."

Cui Ying, Huashan, and Wei Yuanyuan also listened intently.

"Yes, I heard it too," said Wei Yuanyuan. "I hung a whistle on Tiantian’s neck before, just in case."

Wei Yuanyuan felt very guilty for her previous negligence.

Before the boat had even stopped, Wei Yuanyuan jumped overboard and ran towards the shore, indifferent to the seawater soaking her body.

"Tiantian, Tiantian," Wei Yuanyuan called out loudly.

Huo Yingjie, Huashan, and Cui Ying also ran up.

"I’m here, over here," shouted He Tiantian, blowing the whistle even louder.

Huo Yingjie ran to the front and embraced He Tiantian tightly.

At that moment, she was finally safe.

In the darkness, Huo Yingjie’s eyes briefly flickered. The remnant soul of that assassin had been found, and after returning, he would be able to investigate who had hired the assassin to kill He Tiantian.

Once he found out, no matter who it was, they would die!

"Let’s go home," Huo Yingjie said softly, holding He Tiantian, not allowing her to go back into the water.

Once on board, with access to hot water, He Tiantian quickly took a bath.

Huo Yingjie cast a spell in Wei Yuanyuan’s mind to change her memory of He Tiantian disappearing, instead making it seem as if she had been caught up in the waves.

As for Huashan and Cui Ying, there was no need to do the same, because they were in on the secret.

After cleaning up and changing into fresh clothes, He Tiantian was ready.

Cui Ying and Wei Yuanyuan had already prepared food for He Tiantian.

"I’m starving," said He Tiantian. She always had a big appetite, and by now she was really hungry.

"Eat slowly, there’s more," Cui Ying said. "I’ll serve you some porridge."

"Thank you," He Tiantian replied. She would start with eating, and then talk after she was finished.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Wei Yuanyuan asked, "Tiantian, how did you end up on that island reef?"

"After I first fell into the sea, I quickly took off the parachute on my back and swam forward with all my strength. As you know, I’ve trained in swimming, so my speed and strength were adequate, and I actually managed to reach a part of the sea where the waves were smaller. Unable to see any of you, I decided to conserve energy and let myself drift with the waves until I ended up on that island reef and climbed up to wait for you to rescue me," He Tiantian said, providing the reasonable explanation she had prepared beforehand.

"Ah?" Wei Yuanyuan responded, half-convinced, "I can only say that you were very lucky. After you were swept away by the storm, we searched for a long time but couldn’t find any trace of you. I felt extremely guilty and blamed myself for not protecting you properly."

Seeing Wei Yuanyuan like this, He Tiantian felt somewhat sorry and said, "It’s okay, you did your best. Thankfully, the biscuits and water you prepared for me earlier helped me last a day and a night; otherwise, even if I had managed to hide here, I wouldn’t have been able to endure for such a long time."

Knowing that He Tiantian did not blame her, Wei Yuanyuan felt a bit more at ease, but she resolved to be more careful in the future.

"Let’s go out and let Tiantian rest properly," Cui Ying suggested, relieved that they had found He Tiantian, otherwise, she too would have felt uncomfortable about it.

After Cui Ying and Wei Yuanyuan left, Huo Yingjie came in.

He made the bed and embraced He Tiantian as they went to sleep.

Last night, He Tiantian had not slept well, occasionally woken by animal roars in the night, and startled awake by the fragments in her mind.

As a result, her sleep quality was extremely poor.

Then she encountered that madman Demon Night, who spouted all sorts of nonsense, resulting in a fight between him and Huo Yingjie.

For some inexplicable reason, Demon Night stopped fighting, claiming he had had an epiphany.

He was a complete lunatic.

Afterwards, He Tiantian received a hairpin made from the Xiyu Flower, which restored her complete memory.

Her brain had been constantly filled with all sorts of information, and she was extremely tired.

Now, with Huo Yingjie by her side, she could finally sleep soundly without a care in the world.

Huo Yingjie had noticed He Tiantian’s mental tension and had lit a stick of Calming Incense, so she was able to fall into a peaceful sleep without dreaming, her body and mind were in a state of utmost relaxation, allowing for maximum rest and recovery.

However, after He Tiantian had fallen asleep, Huo Yingjie didn’t rest; he couldn’t wait to get home to interrogate who had hired the assassin to stab his wife.

The catastrophe had come too suddenly, leaving Huo Yingjie deeply shaken.

Fortunately, they had encountered a weakened Demon Night this time, so He Tiantian was safe.

But what if they encountered another assassin?

If they didn’t find out who was behind it, someone with money could hire another assassin any time.

Huo Yingjie wouldn’t allow such a thing to happen again, so he was determined to find out who the employer was.

After He Tiantian fell asleep, Huo Yingjie created a barrier and then released a strand of soul.

That area of the sea was usually calm, with few accidents, so collecting it was easy.

A wisp of white smoke rose from the bottle, floating gently in front of Huo Yingjie.

The soul, seeing the person before it and then looking at He Tiantian sleeping nearby, instantly understood and struggled, saying, "I won’t tell..."

Huo Yingjie sneered, "It’s not about whether you will talk, but that you must talk."

After saying that, he cast a spell on the soul, causing the assassin to howl in agony.

"Talk, and I’ll grant you a swift end. Otherwise, you’ll suffer like this every moment," Huo Yingjie declared, resolved not to let this bloodied executioner off easily, no matter what.

Initially, the soul tried to resist, but unable to bear the pain any longer after hearing Huo Yingjie’s words, it confessed, "I don’t know the employer."

"You’re just a tool for murder; naturally, you’re not privileged to know your affluent employers," Huo Yingjie said. "But your organization must know. Speak up, tell me about yourself, and based on what you say, I’ll find a way to trace it back."
