Dream Walker: Feng Shui Master Bai Ya

Startled and slightly embarrassed by the blonde girl's call, Shang Muchen stammered, "Me? I...I'm fine. You...I'm here to visit a patient..."

The blonde girl dropped Lu Mingdi and walked up to Shang Muchen with a serious expression. In front of everyone, she looked up and scrutinized Shang Muchen very carefully, making him feel a little uneasy.

The blonde girl glanced at Shang Muchen, and then all eyes turned to him. Feeling somewhat embarrassed, he took a half-step back and said with an awkward smile:

"Um, Ms. Qiao, you go about your business, don't worry about me, I... I won't cause you any trouble..."

"Shang Muchen! I remember you. You should have been there when the explosion happened." The blonde girl asked seriously.

"Ah, um, uh, yes..." Shang Muchen grinned, looked at the doctors on his left, then at Xiao Jie and the others on his right. Seeing that everyone was looking at him with strange eyes, he felt a little guilty and subconsciously touched his nose.

"You should have already taken the nanobots to treat brain damage, right?" the blonde girl pressed.

"Did you take it...? Did you take it? I don't know, uh, maybe you did, maybe you didn't?"

At that moment, Shang Muchen instantly realized the key point of the blonde girl's question to him.

Clearly, this guy has somehow realized that he has expelled the nanobots from his body, and she is probably questioning him about it.

Shang Muchen was extremely annoyed. How could he be so unlucky? He had just managed to spit out that hateful nanobot that could track and listen to him with his brother's help, and then he was discovered by the people from the 901 Research Institute.

Since this blonde girl is some kind of "Teacher Qiao" at the 901 Research Institute, she's clearly no ordinary person.

Don't let her baby face fool you. Judging from how people treat her, she might be some kind of powerful figure hiding in plain sight. I need to be careful!

Having instantly understood these things, Shang Muchen spoke vaguely, but put on an honest and slightly flattering obedient attitude.

"Impossible!" The blonde girl glared with her large blue eyes, her expression extremely stern. "If you hadn't taken the nanobot pill, you'd be either dead or having an epileptic seizure by now!"

What's wrong with you? I feel like something's off about you.

Wang Caiwei, use the life information field scanner to scan Shang Muchen and see what's going on with him!

A female doctor with a pure and innocent appearance and wearing glasses walked out of the ward from the crowd and quickly returned with a device the size of a video camera.

Shang Muchen was left bewildered and isolated in a corner of the room by everyone in the house. Everyone else kept their distance from him, as if he were some kind of infectious source.

A female doctor named Wang Caiwei, holding a camera-like device, filmed Shang Muchen in front of everyone.

Shang Muchen asked timidly, "Um, doctor, I have my phone and keys in my pocket, is that alright...?"

"It's alright, it's not an MRI, just stand still," Wang Caiwei commanded calmly.

Shang Muchen was scanned but didn't feel anything unusual, while Wang Caiwei exclaimed in surprise, "Huh?"

"What's wrong?" the blonde girl asked, frowning.

"Teacher Qiao, please wait a moment, I might have made a mistake, let me scan it again..."

The blonde girl pouted with disgust, but didn't say anything. After Wang Caiwei scanned Shang Muchen again, she asked, "What's the result?"

"Huh? That's strange, something's not right..."

"What's wrong with that? The spirit of science is to be realistic and objective. No matter how serious the disease is, just look at the objective conclusions."

Wang Caiwei looked around the room with a puzzled expression, hesitated for a moment, and then whispered a few words in the ear of the blonde little girl.

Shang Muchen stood there, at a loss, not knowing what they were busy with. He didn't know whether to ask or not, and he was extremely embarrassed.

Upon hearing Wang Caiwei's whisper, the blonde girl's large, sea-blue eyes visibly brightened. Shang Muchen was almost certain he wasn't mistaken; her eyes, like a robot's, emitted a blue light for a fleeting moment.

After Wang Caiwei finished speaking, the blonde girl simply nodded and hummed in agreement, offering no further comment. She then turned back, gave Shang Muchen a meaningful look, nodded again, and casually remarked:

"Wow, what a winner in life, huh? Heh, Long Aotian."

After that, the blonde girl ignored Shang Muchen and turned back to continue studying Lu Mingdi's situation.

The blonde girl's two ambiguous, neither good nor bad, lukewarm and lifeless words made Shang Muchen extremely embarrassed. He didn't understand what those two sentences meant at all.

The doctors, nurses, and Xiao Jie in the ward all secretly looked at Shang Muchen with the eyes of someone looking at an oddball, making Shang Muchen feel out of place and isolated at the very edge of the crowd.

The blonde girl consulted with the doctor for a while, using a bunch of medical terms that Shang Muchen didn't understand, and fiddled with the machine for a bit. Then she turned back to Xiao Jie and the others and said:

"Lu Mingdi's situation is very clear. His consciousness is currently trapped in an illusion elsewhere and he doesn't want to come back."

If you want him to wake up, you must enter the dream he is currently in and pull him back yourself.

We do have readily available dream network equipment, but we don't currently have suitable dream walkers.

Several experts from Institute 901 who possess Dream Walker qualifications are currently not in China. Please wait a while.

Go back and tell the patient's family not to worry; this situation is quite common, just like a typical vegetative state patient. Institute 901 has a 100% cure rate for this type of vegetative state patient.

"Thank you, Teacher Qiao!" Xiao Jie clasped his hands in a warm greeting, smiling broadly as he humbly inquired, "Teacher Qiao, if I may be so bold as to ask, how long will it take?"

"How long?" the blonde girl turned to Wang Caiwei and asked, "Who will be back the fastest? Lu Renjia? Juan Sanchez?"

"Paul Mwangza," Wang Caiwei replied, "He should be back from Gondwana by the end of the month, while Lu Renjia will have to wait until next month."

"Okay, let's wait for him." The blonde girl turned to Xiao Jie and said, "Tell the patient's family that we'll wake up Lu Mingdi by the end of the month."

"Okay, okay, thank you, Teacher Qiao!" Xiao Jie thanked her profusely and saw the blonde girl off.

Only four people remained in the ward: Xiao Jie with glasses, Fang Xuan with curly hair, Wu Biao who was short, and Shang Muchen.

Shang Muchen cleared his throat awkwardly and asked Xiao Jie timidly, "Dude, who was that arrogant young lady just now?"

"Who? The female doctor who scanned you? I don't know her."

"No! It's that blonde doll..."

"Huh? You don't know her? Don't you watch TV?" Curly-haired Fang Xuan answered with a laugh, "She's on TV all the time."

"Really?" Shang Muchen rarely watches TV.

"Please, if you're going to pretend, at least make it convincing," muttered the short Wu Biao. "Don't get cocky just because Teacher Qiao said something nice about you. You're really pushing your luck!"

"Brother! I really don't know her!" Shang Muchen cried out, his hands trembling with anxiety. "I'm innocent!"

"How can you not know her?"

She is one of the most famous scientists in China, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the Chinese Academy of Mathematical Sciences, and the chief scientist of the 901 Institute. Joanna!

"She's on science programs all the time, don't you ever watch them?" Xiao Jie shook her head and said.

"She's so young, and she's already an academician?"

"She's not young anymore, she must be at least 50 years old now, right?"

"She looks like a child, but that's purely because she takes good care of herself," Fang Xuan added.

"Wow, the 901 Research Institute really knows how to maintain youth!" Shang Muchen thought of Professor Eileen, who also seemed exceptionally young.

"No, I know her background. The reason she looks young is not because she takes good care of herself," Xiao Jie said in a low voice. "I heard some big shots in the industry talking about it after drinking. Joanna and her younger sister Jobella were among the first genetically modified superhumans."

Their father, Mr. Qiao Dongqing, one of the founders of computer science in China, and his wife, the mathematician Ms. Prokhorova, were both geniuses with IQs approaching 200.

A mastermind has set their sights on the couple, convinced that their genes are destined to produce a genius.

So, they kidnapped their two daughters—Joanna and Giovanna—as infants, injected them with the first generation of experimental nanobots, and modified their genes, drastically enhancing their intelligence and making them live exceptionally long lives.

"My god, what kind of urban legend is this? It's so creepy, and it even has a 'mastermind' behind it all," Shang Muchen complained. "Glasses, who is this mastermind you're talking about?"

"Aliens, I suppose," Xiao Jie said mysteriously, shaking his head.

"I don't believe in aliens at all." Short Wu Biao shook his head angrily. "Glasses, your explanation is too outrageous. It's just pure nonsense!"

When people talk about who is great, who is a genius or a hero, it's always about genetic modification or aliens. It completely erases personal effort and hard work!

Your theory of "dragon-like arrogance" based on bloodline is utter garbage!
