Max-Level Metaphysician: A Debt Repayment Journey-Chapter 1303: She Ran Away

Xia Xin saw this and, like Fu Shiyan, followed behind her. He couldn’t help but ask, "Ancestor, the Revitalization Talisman in my pocket, you gave it to me, right?"

Jiangli responded with a sound, without stopping her steps. She opened the guest room door, went inside, and saw that Meng Hongyao was indeed asleep in the guest room.

From her appearance, she seemed to be sleeping quite soundly.

Xia Xin worriedly asked, "Ancestor, is Miss Meng okay?"

Jiangli reached out to check Meng Hongyao’s pulse, confirming she was fine, and said, "She’s alright, just asleep."

Xia Xin breathed a sigh of relief, "I really didn’t expect He Ruomei to drug us with sleeping pills. What is she trying to do? Could she be planning to get rid of us?"

Jiangli said calmly, "If I’m not mistaken, she needs to periodically change her skin, or else the old skin will rot and peel off, just like earlier. The human skin in the secret room is prepared for herself. She probably killed Wu Jianhan today and then realized there was a problem with her skin and wanted to replace it. But unfortunately, we called and disrupted her plan, so she hurriedly changed a few patches, without replacing most of it. Tonight, she wanted to wait until we fell asleep to change her skin, so we wouldn’t notice her true appearance."

Xia Xin said, "So, she didn’t plan to harm us?"

Jiangli chuckled softly, "That’s not certain. If she’s missing a lot of skin, she might take action against us."

Upon hearing this, Xia Xin felt a chill run through his body and couldn’t help but shiver.

If, if they all fell asleep...

They might have been added to the sewing machine’s victims.

Thinking of this possibility made Xia Xin’s heart twitch and tremble uncontrollably.

"Now that she’s run away, what should we do?"

Xia Xin couldn’t help asking.

Jiangli got up and went out, returning with a glass of water. She took out a Talisman, tossed it into the glass, and the Talisman Paper disappeared immediately.

Then, she took the glass and poured the water into Meng Hongyao’s mouth, then said, "No need to worry, she can’t escape."

Upon hearing this, Xia Xin instinctively asked, "Ancestor, you’ve prepared for this long ago?"

Jiangli simply smiled without speaking.

After a moment, Meng Hongyao slowly opened her eyes, full of confusion. Seeing Jiangli, Fu Shiyan, and others beside the bed, she was startled and immediately sat up.

Fortunately, she slept wearing clothes, so there was nothing indelicate.

But seeing them in the room still gave her quite a scare.

Meng Hongyao couldn’t help but ask, "Why... why are you all here?"

Jiangli said calmly, "Something happened."

Meng Hongyao looked completely puzzled.

Seeing this, Xia Xin took the initiative to speak, helping Jiangli, who was sparing with her words, to explain.

He informed Meng Hongyao of everything about He Ruomei.

Meng Hongyao was stunned, immediately getting out of bed, "So, the killer we thought was Wu Jianhan, is actually He Ruomei?"

Jiangli made a sound of agreement, "This also explains why Wu Jianhan advocated inviting the Xuanmen Association for help. He probably really knew nothing but was somewhat suspicious that things weren’t right at the hotel, so he wanted someone to take a look."

"It turned out to be He Ruomei..."

Meng Hongyao found it hard to believe, "Why would a woman like her harm so many people? Those tourists shouldn’t have had any quarrel with her, right?" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Wu Jianhan had a bad temper, and as He Ruomei’s husband, arguments were inevitable.

He Ruomei didn’t like him and wanted to harm Wu Jianhan; there was at least some reason.

What connection did those tourists have with He Ruomei?

"Only He Ruomei can answer that," Jiangli said.

Meng Hongyao immediately asked, "Where is He Ruomei now?"

Xia Xin replied, "...She escaped."
