In the sofa area of Su Yus office on the fifth floor of the underground building.

Shang Jianyao met the board member again.

Why do you suddenly have something to tell me? Su Yu picked up the porcelain cup and gulped down two large mouthfuls.

Shang Jianyaowho was Zen Master Redemptiondidnt answer immediately and asked in concern, Director Su, the report I submitted was alright, right?

Su Yu took out a tissue and wiped the water from the corners of his mouth and the sweat on his forehead. It was excellent, especially that cruise trauma. None of us have experienced something similar before. Its too special; it actually manages to save the exploration progress. Furthermore, time jumps upon each entry.

The fact that you can find the key and clear such a trauma is enough to indicate that your observation, inference, and judgment are outstanding.

Clap! Clap! Clap!

Shang Jianyao clappedthe honest him wasnt modest at all. I think so too.

Su Yu was already accustomed to his behavior and smiled. Such special psychological trauma involves the New World, and it has a certain value as a reference for the companys powerhouses. We will reward you well. Is there anything you want?

Shang Jianyao replied without hesitation, Install a phone in my room!

Su Yu was stunned for a moment. Thats it?

Yes. Shang Jianyao nodded solemnly.

The Su Yu, who followed strict military doctrine, thought for a few seconds and said, Thats not fair. Why dont we get you a three-bedroom room that has a telephone installed?

Theres no need. We cant decide on changing rooms ourselves, Shang Jianyao explained in all seriousness. I need to take my wifes needs into consideration when I get married in the future. We have to consult her opinion.

Su Yu asked in confusion, You have a partner?

No, Shang Jianyao replied smoothly.

Su Yu pressed, When do you plan on having one?

After saving all of humanity! Shang Jianyaos tone was abnormally firm.

With a square face and a gray combat uniform, Su Yu could only understand this as a tactful rejection. He thought for a moment and said, Make some other requests.

Shang Jianyao thought for a moment. Install a phone at Long Yuehongs house, one for Bai Chen, and one for the room a.s.signed to Long Yuehong and Bai Chen after they register their marriage.

Su Yu laughed when he heard that. You have something against phones, right? Alright, Ill satisfy your request.

He fell silent for a moment before asking, Is the feedback you obtained from the special psychological trauma strong?

The report Shang Jianyao submitted didnt mention such content. Therefore, even if he hadnt requested to meet Su Yu, the latter would have summoned him to inquire.

You still want to talk about that? Shang Jianyao had a look of surprise. Isnt it only about the exploration of those rooms? This is something that happened after the exploration ended.

Su Yu maintained his smile. You can choose not to answer.

Shang Jianyao shook his head. I cant bring myself to do that.

He paused and said before Su Yu could speak, The feedback is about two to three times more than normal. Theres also the aura that threw the people on the cruise s.h.i.+p into chaos.

He didnt mention his additional gains or the Buddhist aura that had fused with the Six Senses Beads because it was unlikely that anyone would subsequently obtain it after clearing the corresponding psychological trauma.

Su Yu nodded slightly and said, Its about what I expected.

Shang Jianyao drank a mouthful of cold water on the coffee table without standing on ceremony. Director Su, do you have any research or relevant experience regarding these special psychological traumas?

Su Yu leaned forward slightly and wiped the sweat from his forehead again. What we can now determine is that special psychological traumas involve New World powerhouses and even a certain Kalendaria. The principle is that theres probably an aura hidden in the targets Sea of Origins or a projection of a New World node.

After discussing this matter, Su Yu returned to the initial topic. Why did you request to meet me?

Shang Jianyaos expression turned serious. Director Su, do you still remember the Life Ritual parish?

Yes. Su Yu nodded. Why? Did you discover more clues regarding this parish again?

Shang Jianyao replied seriously, Yes. I suspect its them, but theres no evidence.

Tell me about it. Su Yu wasnt careless.

Shang Jianyaowho had already prepared ten draftsrandomly chose one. Heres the thing. Through Long Yuehong, I found an employee who knows how to draw talismans and went to her to request a Babymaker talisman.

Su Yu couldnt help but ask, I thought you dont have a partner and dont plan on finding a partner any time soon?

Furthermore, it was clear that any time soon would be indefinite. It was impossible to save all of humanity without centuries worth of work.

It was even more delusional to rely on three to four people.

Shang Jianyao nodded and replied, I wanted to see if I could still have children after wearing the Babymaker talisman, even if I dont have a partner.

Upon recalling the other partys mental state, Su Yu accepted this explanation.

Then? he asked.

It doesnt work. Shang Jianyao had a look of regret.

Su Yu picked up the porcelain cup and drank a mouthful of water. Im asking how did you discover clues regarding the Life Ritual parish?

Shang Jianyao came to a realization. The employee who drew the talisman mentioned that her fatheran old employee named Mu Renjiesuddenly suffered a myocardial infarction in the middle of the night five years ago while on the way to the public bathroom. He couldnt be resuscitated. This old employee could draw real Babymaker talismans.

What do you mean real Babymaker talismans?' Su Yu always felt that Shang Jianyao was diverting his focus.

Shang Jianyao explained, That employee didnt know how to cherish what she had when she had it. She only realized how precious it was when she lost it. She no longer knows how to draw Babymaker talismans, so she can only make them up.

Is that so? Su Yu thought for a moment and said, There arent just one or two people who suddenly suffer from myocardial infarction. Weve previously carried out a review. In theory, there shouldnt be any problems with Mu Renjies death. But since theres the Babymaker talisman, it can barely be considered a coincidence. Ill get someone to investigate the employees on the corresponding route.

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. Didnt 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 wont 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 auraits usage hadnt changed, but its effects were stronger.

Su Yu didnt 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 att.i.tudes toward their believers. Some dont care, some find it annoying, and some like it very much.

Su Yu didnt emphasize that the Kalendarium really existed because the Old Task Force had experienced Master Zhuangs dream. They also suggested that the Old Worlds destruction might be a result of the Eighth Research Inst.i.tutes forbidden experiments and that the source of the Heartless disease was most likely in the New World.

Shang Jianyao gave a terse acknowledgment. Then, dont 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 partys hand was relatively warm.

Su Yu didnt 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 dont have to worry. Long Yuehong heaved a long sigh of relief.

Jiang Baimian smiled. Thats 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 arent 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 Inst.i.tutes 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. Weve known each other for so long, and were all from the research inst.i.tute. 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 Inst.i.tutes residential area.

At this moment, everyone was present except for one personRoom 506s 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 Jianyaos hair. La.s.s, 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, Its because Im vexed.

Vexed over accepting which one? Youre 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 Im also an Awakened? the lady asked in amus.e.m.e.nt.

Shang Jianyaos 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 Fates domain.

The lady in her thirties or forties thought for a moment before answering, The Arbiter of Fates domain mainly affects the respiratory system and the heart. The known prices are limb paralysis, eyeball abnormalities, and

She paused and said, Theres also chronic gastric problems and having a higher body temperature than normal people.
