He could easily do the math to know that the corresponding surveillance footage had definitely expired.
Shang Jianyao looked around and suppressed his voice. “Director Su, you have to be careful of moles. Didn’t the information leak out during the investigation of the Life Ritual parish, causing the key clues to be lost?”
He then pointed at the corridor outside. “The Doctor of the Church has always been watching us.”
Su Yu laughed involuntarily. “I won’t overlook this.”
Shang Jianyao clapped. He then inquired, “Director Su, does the company have a New World-level Arbiter of Fate domain powerhouse?”
This was the conclusion obtained from being able to sense the New World node through the Life Angel necklace after its change of aura—its usage hadn’t changed, but its effects were stronger.
Su Yu didn’t hide anything. “Yes.”
Shang Jianyao curiously asked, “Then, what does he think of the Life Ritual parish?”
“We never discussed such trivial problems with him.” Su Yu recalled and said, “But once, when he mentioned the various religions in the Ashlands, he vaguely said that different Kalendarium have different attitudes toward their believers. Some don’t care, some find it annoying, and some like it very much.”
Su Yu didn’t emphasize that the Kalendarium really existed because the Old Task Force had experienced Master Zhuang’s dream. They also suggested that the Old World’s destruction might be a result of the Eighth Research Institute’s forbidden experiments and that the source of the Heartless disease was most likely in the New World.
Shang Jianyao gave a terse acknowledgment. “Then, don’t disturb him with this matter.”
“Is there anything else?” Su Yu exhaled.
“No.” Shang Jianyao stood up and politely stretched out his right hand.
Su Yu stood up and lightly shook his hand.
“You still have a slight fever?” Shang Jianyao felt that the other party’s hand was relatively warm.
Su Yu didn’t answer and only nodded.
…
After returning to Room 14 on the 647th floor, Shang Jianyao roughly recounted his conversation with Director Su.
“Leave the rest to the company. We don’t have to worry.” Long Yuehong heaved a long sigh of relief.
Jiang Baimian smiled. “That’s right. What you need to worry about is the parent-meeting session and your marriage registration.”
It was still a day before Sunday.
“Yeah, yeah.” Long Yuehong suddenly felt a little nervous.
Upon seeing this, Bai Chen held his hand. “Will you give up if your parents aren’t satisfied with me?”
“No,” Long Yuehong replied firmly.
Bai Chen immediately smiled. “In that case, why are you nervous?”
Jiang Baimian felt a headache coming on as she watched. She quickly said to Shang Jianyao, “When you explore the psychological trauma in Room 506 tonight, focus on gathering information on the room owner and all kinds of other information. Only then can we guess what the room owner did and what mistakes he made back then to find a way to clear the psychological trauma.”
“Alright!” Shang Jianyao had always been interested in gossip.
…
In the Mind Corridor, in the psychological trauma in Room 506.
Shang Jianyao entered the Fourth Research Institute’s residential area again. He then casually found a lady who he found amiable and greeted her with a smile. “Good morning.”
When the lady in her thirties or forties revealed a confused expression, Shang Jianyao spoke first. “We’ve known each other for so long, and we’re all from the research institute. What do you think of me?”
He was using Thought Guidance, making the other party instinctively believe that he was a resident of the Fourth Research Institute’s residential area.
At this moment, everyone was present except for one person—Room 506’s owner.
At this rate, the lady in front of Shang Jianyao would most likely treat him as the other party.
The lady gradually smiled; then, she tip-toed and stroked Shang Jianyao’s hair. “Lass, why are you asking this question for no reason?”
The room owner is female… Shang Jianyao muttered to himself silently. He then smiled and replied, “It’s because I’m vexed.”
“Vexed over accepting which one? You’re too indecisive, but most young ladies are like that.” The lady smiled and consoled him. “When you Awaken later, you can use this as a price.”
Shang Jianyao smiled. “You also know about my Awakening?”
“Have you forgotten that I’m also an Awakened?” the lady asked in amusement.
Shang Jianyao’s heart palpitated. “Then, do you know much about Awakened?”
“What do you want to know?” the lady with a good bearing asked dotingly.
Shang Jianyao smiled and replied, “I want to know about the Arbiter of Fate’s domain.”
The lady in her thirties or forties thought for a moment before answering, “The Arbiter of Fate’s domain mainly affects the respiratory system and the heart. The known prices are limb paralysis, eyeball abnormalities, and…”
She paused and said, “There’s also chronic gastric problems and having a higher body temperature than normal people.”
