Her heart suddenly raced, as if she had touched the edge of the truth.

Thinking of this, Xia Wan suddenly felt enlightened, and a sense of accomplishment, as if she had solved the mystery, welled up within her!

This woman's thoughts and way of speaking are like those of someone from this world, so is it possible that she was possessed by an indigenous person? She pondered this possibility repeatedly in her mind, and the more she thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed.

However, at that moment, the system gave a cold response.

[We're sorry, this system is currently unable to accurately detect this. However, you, host, are free to use your own wisdom to gradually explore and uncover the truth behind the matter.]

The system's voice was devoid of emotion, like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the flame of hope that had just ignited in Xia Wan's heart.

Hearing the system's response, Xia Wan felt slightly disappointed, and that disappointment, like a dark cloud, instantly enveloped her heart.

But she quickly adjusted her mindset, biting her lower lip, and a determined light rekindled in her eyes.

She knew that even if the system couldn't help, she had enough courage and wisdom to uncover the truth behind these layers of mystery.

At the same time, Xia Tao, who had been frowning and looking serious, solemnly reminded her: "Xiao Wan, no matter what, we must be extremely careful in dealing with Xia Shuhua and her possible actions."

You see, Dad isn't fully recovered yet. If something goes wrong at this crucial moment, the consequences would be unimaginable!

His voice was deep and powerful, each word like a warning bell, reminding Xia Wan of the seriousness of the situation.

Xia Wan nodded, her nod firm and powerful.

He then slowly turned his head, his gaze fixed on Xia Jianguo lying on the hospital bed, a deep worry in his eyes, and said softly, "Dad, you must be careful while you're in the hospital. If you feel anything is wrong, don't try to bear it. The people Old Master Xia left behind can still be of some use!"

Her eyes were full of concern, as if she wanted to use that gaze to build a safe barrier for her father.

Although she and her brother always arranged for one of them to stay in the ward to take care of her while the other went out to run errands, things are unpredictable and no one can guarantee that some unexpected situations won't occur.

If any unexpected situation were to arise, allowing someone to take advantage of the situation, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Their enemies lurk in the shadows, like cunning foxes, ready to strike a fatal blow at any moment.

Xia Jianguo smiled slightly, a smile as warm and kind as the spring sun. He raised his hand and gently patted Xia Wan's hand, a gentle pat conveying a father's strength and comfort.

He comforted her, saying, "My dear daughters, don't worry about me too much. I'm a respectable man, how could I not even take care of myself? On the contrary, you two should be more careful and cautious in everything you do when you're out and about."

His words were full of love for his children; in his heart, their safety was the most important thing.

Xia Shuhua left in a hurry and looked flustered, so she probably won't cause any more trouble or problems in the coming days.

After all, judging from her behavior just now, that woman didn't seem to be a particularly shrewd or intelligent person. It was as if everything she was thinking was clearly written on her face.

Her panic and helplessness made Xia Jianguo feel that she was unlikely to do anything bold in the short term.

After Xia Tao left the hospital to buy food for everyone, the previously noisy ward was now left with only Xia Wan and her daughter Xia Jianguo.

The ward was so quiet you could hear each other breathing; time seemed to stand still. Then, Xia Wan took a deep breath, a slow, heavy breath, as if she were gathering her courage.

Lowering her voice, she said to her father, "Dad, there's something important I haven't had a chance to tell you yet... It's about Xia Shuhua. She might have been possessed by someone else!"

Her voice was so low it was almost inaudible, as if uttering those words required all her strength.

Xia Jianguo's eyes widened, becoming as large as copper bells, his face filled with astonishment.

His mouth was slightly open, as if he wanted to say something, but he was so shocked by the sudden news that he couldn't speak.

He pondered to himself, what exactly is going on in this world?

Why do so many strange and inexplicable things happen one after another?

Wasn't it forbidden for beings to become spirits after the founding of the People's Republic of China? How can we explain everything that's happening now?

His mind was in chaos, as if he were lost in a fog, unable to find his way.
