Chapter 58 Bai Ye's Worries
Xu Lun secretly breathed a sigh of relief and casually reminded her:
"You just lead the way and stop thinking nonsense..."
Luca nodded, his ears twitching slightly.
"Yeah, I understand... but I keep feeling a buzzing in my ears, like I've been hit a lot by something..."
Xu Lun's face darkened, and the corners of his mouth began to twitch uncontrollably.
"Alright...alright...just lead the way, I told you not to think about useless things...did you hear me! Don't go the wrong way!"
"Oh, I know... I know the way..."
"If you know them, why are you near Zulu Village... Aren't you supposed to stay away from humans...?"
"It wasn't like this before... their territory wasn't this big..."
"..."
The man and the leopard bickered as they traveled, embarking on an adventure to the snow-capped mountains.
In the television footage, Xu Lun and Luka, one human and one leopard, gradually disappeared under the cover of the trees.
Director Chen put down his wine glass, got up, and left the bar.
"Keep an eye on this kid, and report back to me immediately if anything happens."
After saying that, he looked at Station Chief Huang and added:
"This drink is well-mixed; I'll come back to try it again next time I have the chance."
Director Chen smiled, leaving Station Chief Huang, who looked completely bewildered, standing there. He then turned around and strode towards the back door.
Bai Ye and Han Xinwan followed behind to see them off.
Upon reaching the door, Bai Ye quickly stepped forward, rushing to open the door for his leader.
However, Director Chen raised his hand to signal a halt, turned around, and said to Han Xinwan:
"How is Dora?"
Han Xinwan shook her head and said helplessly:
"She's still not awake, but the vital signs monitoring shows everything is normal. I don't know what to do. If allowed, I'd like to use my psychic powers to enter her consciousness and investigate."
Director Chen fell into deep thought. Delving into someone's mental world wasn't something to be done casually. Doing so without the person's permission was tantamount to making an enemy, especially someone like Dora. If Dora found out it was Han Xinwan who had entered her mental world, a major battle would likely erupt on the spot...
"Tsk..."
Thinking about all this, he felt like his head was about to explode. He quickly took off his glasses and rubbed his temples, instantly becoming somewhat irritable.
"Let's talk about this later. Don't do anything without my permission. Let's focus on doing what's in front of us first..."
After saying that, Director Chen turned around, waved to Bai Ye, signaling him to open the door quickly. Once the door opened, he walked in without looking back.
However, Bai Ye did not go back with them, nor did Han Xinwan leave. The two stayed where they were, and Bai Ye gently closed the door and then slowly exhaled.
"Team Leader Han..."
Bai Ye pushed up his glasses, and his tone suddenly became serious.
What's your opinion on Xu Lun's situation?
Han Xinwan raised her eyebrows, puzzled.
"What do you mean, how do you see it?"
Bai Ye sighed and explained:
You must have seen him treating that wild beast, right?
There was a period in the middle when his somatization symptoms were very obvious, as if he had been stimulated by something and it was a stress response.
Do you think... that reaction was related to the bracelet? Was it because Xu Lun couldn't withstand the bracelet's power and was showing signs of pain?
I don't think so. I think his reaction was very unusual, and it might not have come from the bracelet itself, but rather from his own experiences.
Han Xinwan crossed her arms and asked, enunciating each word clearly:
"What exactly are you trying to say?"
Bai Ye gave a bitter laugh and said helplessly:
"Team Leader Han, look at the question you're asking! He's from your hometown, just like you, from Universe 616. Aren't you even a little curious about this kid's background? Of course..."
Seeing that the other person was about to speak, he quickly raised his hand to signal them to speak, and added:
"I know you've already investigated his background, and I trust your findings, but I think we should take his suspicious, stress-like behavior seriously."
In my experience, the reason why people develop such somatization symptoms is very likely related to past psychological trauma.
So I was thinking, do you have time to investigate Xu Lun's background further? Mainly his family situation, not his social connections, to see if anything bad happened to him during his upbringing...”
Han Xinwan listened and did not refute, but asked curiously:
"I didn't know you knew about these things?"
Bai Ye smiled calmly and replied:
"Team Leader Han, look at what you're saying... I am, after all, a magician, specializing in mental magic. Moreover, in my original universe, my main job was a psychology professor."
Han Xinwan nodded in understanding after hearing this:
"I see... Okay, I'll remember this and look into it again when I have time."
Thank you.
Bai Ye bowed slightly and politely opened the door for her.
Han Xinwan didn't say anything, but nodded in response, then went through the door and returned to the Administration Bureau.
When she pushed open the door again and entered room 661.
James immediately came up to her and greeted her:
"Team leader."
Han Xinwan nodded and said:
"You can stay here. Let me know if anything happens."
"clear."
As James spoke, he operated the control panel on the wall, reconnecting the door of room 661 to the internal network of the administration.
Then, he opened the door for Han Xinwan and watched his boss leave the room.
Han Xinwan left room 661 and walked alone in the corridor, recalling what Bai Ye had just said.
Actually, she had noticed Xu Lun's somatization symptoms before, but unlike Bai Ye, she wasn't as professional and hadn't considered the possibility of psychological trauma. However, now, after Bai Ye's reminder, she did feel that Xu Lun's background information seemed to be missing some details about his family relationships.
Ya Mei's whereabouts remain unknown, but this could be a direction for investigation. She could try to learn more about Xu Lun first.
With these thoughts in mind, she stopped at the door of room 616 and rang the doorbell.
The door opened immediately, and the staff member who opened it bowed and greeted her.
"Team leader."
Han Xinwan nodded and then went inside.
At this moment, there were at least ten investigators from the Bureau inside room 616, responsible for organizing various information and clues related to Yami.
Han Xinwan didn't say anything, but told them to continue working. She only said one thing to the investigator who opened the door:
"I'm going to Universe 616."
The other party nodded and immediately operated the control panel on the wall to establish a connection channel between her and the 616 universe.
Han Xinwan took a deep breath, feeling burdened and stressed. After the door opened, she walked in without saying a word.
