Chapter 2772: Chapter 2767: The 13th Day’s Discourse (24)
Because the attending doctor went to find Hairpin Girl Xiaotong to check on her condition, Lady Black House had the opportunity to come out and demand an explanation?
The reason Fu Qian confirmed with the other party whether they had just arrived, the most direct purpose was naturally to verify once again the operation of the Well of Time.
It turns out the whole process is indeed reasonable and subtle.
First of all, for Lady Black House, several solid days have indeed passed.
At the same time, the events of these days also are completely self-contained in logic to her —
After taking a walk and chatting with herself for a while, Tong returned with a great emotional upheaval, so much so that Lady Black House, who is quite close, had to accompany her the entire way, carefully comforting her.
Her dissatisfaction with the culprit quickly accumulated in this process.
Unfortunately, due to concern for Tong, she couldn’t spare the time to come and demand an explanation.
It wasn’t until the attending doctor Servis went to check on the former that she had a moment to spare and directly sought them out.
And if you compare her experience to Lady Trish, who directly spent three days in a coma, Lady Black House’s story undoubtedly sounds much richer.
To the extent that at first glance, it makes one question the previous conclusion — is the impact of the Well of Time really targeted at the entire asylum?
Or is it possible that everyone is relatively independent, and Lady Black House experienced a normal four days?
Not necessarily.
One should not be narrow-minded. Haven’t you noticed that regardless of whether the experiences sound different or not, if written down, their lengths are actually about the same?
From Lady Trish’s perspective, wasn’t her experience before I visited her also very normal — unconcerned with other matters, quietly waiting for a day?
The four days that Lady Black House casually mentioned could also be of the same nature, exaggerated by her perception.
The genuine time accompanying Hairpin Girl was essentially when I parted ways with her and then visited Lady Trish.
And because I was not only flipping through the library there but also chatting more with the awakening Lady Trish, I was able to get here a bit earlier.
Isn’t this all quite smooth?
It could even be completely considered a manifestation of the director’s skill.
I spent a full four days on Lady Trish’s side, with an attitude that was ambiguous.
Yet just before setting off to leave, the director not only confirmed my next destination but even cleverly arranged for someone to be here in waiting.
Indeed, the likelihood that the attending doctor Servis went to check on Tong by coincidence seems rather small to Fu Qian.
And if it’s not a coincidence, this director’s influence is getting increasingly exaggerated.
In such an asylum, Servis appears to be a top decision-maker, yet he willingly acts on behalf of this figure?
Or is it simply that Servis is the director?
Considering it’s a character who never goes to their office, wandering around like a ghost, it’s somewhat understandable if they engage in other abstract behaviors.
For example, transforming the entire asylum into a playground.
Even capable of mobilizing numerous resources, which suddenly seems reasonable as well.
Ultimately leading to the "director" appearing omniscient, with every action of mine, and even everyone’s, under his control.
The mobilization of personnel is as elusive as the horns of an antelope.
Of course, it’s far from proof, so it might be best to maintain a cautious outlook, and now the most important thing is another issue — what does the director want?
The targeted intent is already a bit evident, and whether it’s harboring extreme malice toward intruders or purely using them as playthings, the previous concerns in this aspect seem quite real.
This person seems to be mobilizing the entire asylum to completely trap me.
"Does your tooth still hurt?"
Imagining the rather bleak situation, yet it didn’t delay Fu Qian from seeing his guest off.
Facing Lady Black House, who was already walking out, he not only didn’t mind her rudeness but even expressed a bit of care.
Think positively; the purpose of coming here has been achieved.
That is to join the asylum family and interact with more elements.
...
It’s clear Lady Black House didn’t expect to be asked to stay.
But simultaneously, the sudden concern seemed quite powerful, making her stop in her tracks instantly.
This is the power of a toothache.
Fu Qian wasn’t surprised by this and even found it quite normal.
As everyone knows, among the challenges of acquiring how much money at the cost of various pains, toothache is the least chosen one.
When it hurts, it’s not exaggerated to say it’s life-threatening.
With Lady Black House filled with righteous indignation, it wasn’t easy for her to shift her focus a bit, but now with his concern, it’s likely that the "intense pain surged."
"I don’t need your help right now."
She’s evidently very strong-willed, struggling for a bit, yet Lady Black House still didn’t turn back, only refusing with her back to him.
"It’s okay, I need to help you."
Unfortunately, as the Mechanical Abandoned Prison King, Fu Qian is always adept at forcibly offering help, immediately providing an undeniable reason.
"Regrettably, even if you were him... I don’t think you could help me anymore."
It turns out to be quite effective. Lady Black House’s refusal was already trembling, and yet she still didn’t have the strength to move, as if something had crumbled.
"Promises not kept render principles meaningless."
...
Is this truly pure therapeutic conversation? It’s said that improper conduct damages the mind, and digressing too much easily impacts the flow of thought.
Lady Black House’s last words were undoubtedly thought-provoking; unfortunately, Fu Qian didn’t feel guilty, only gaining new insights.
The reason for her refusal to accept further treatment is because he himself reneged on his promises, so the principles he preached are no longer believed.
Just from this logic, it can be discerned that Lady Trish’s male companion likely adopted a therapy akin to a mental nitrogen pump, maintaining a pure relationship with Lady Black House.
But the purer it was, the more exceptional its skill appeared, as seen from the latter’s emotional state, indicating a seemingly unreasonable trust in that person.
But precisely for this reason, even if he was just a counterfeit, his actions inevitably destroyed that trust.
Ultimately, like soap turned white, even if the real male companion of Lady Trish returns, the effect remains disastrous.
"Give it a try, after all, it’s free."
Yet in this scene, Fu Qian took a deep breath, increasingly convinced that stopping her earlier was the right choice, while slipping into a leisurely mode.
In short, he’s not in any rush to move on to the next situation, warmly suggesting that she treat a dead horse as if it were alive.
Hmm...
This kind of absurd behavior ultimately led to the person involved showing a strong lack of understanding.
Splat—
In the dimness, you could see the silhouette of Lady Black House turning, and with a light sound, the light was turned on, the surroundings suddenly bright.
"What exactly are you trying to do... are you really planning to completely assume his identity?"
