Chapter 27: Unpredictable progress

"How does Xiao Wu feel?" the director asked with concern.

"It was pretty good. It felt like watching a movie. The memory of that scene is very clear in my mind now." John Woo replied with a smile.

"How come you can still remember what happened before after hypnosis is over?" Zong Cheng asked Jin Sichen. How come he couldn't remember anything after hypnosis?

"It depends on the specific needs. You can remember or not remember. The hypnotist can control it." Jin Sichen replied. For someone like John Woo, it's better to remember.

"The details I provided are not many. Can you draw it based on those?" John Woo ran to see the painting impatiently.

Xue Ping drew, Wang Fengfeng drew, Zong Cheng drew, and even Mr. Qian made a couple of strokes. But because there were so few clues, each person's drawing was different, each closely following their own mental image. In contrast, it had nothing in common with the one John Woo saw, not even close.

When everyone saw John Woo’s frown, they knew that this operation was unsuccessful. It seemed that they had to find a professional portrait artist.

But most portrait artists also draw faces. Can they draw the mecha that John Woo remembers?

Everyone decided to ignore this issue for the time being and choose to believe it. After all, they had no better choice.

The final result of the meeting was that each person had their own division of labor.

John Woo was responsible for arranging a temporary residence for Lin Fan and taking care of her daily life.

Every morning, I would take people to the medical department for physical examinations to see if there were any changes in the data or any abnormalities. In the afternoon, I would take the hypnosis video and go find a portrait artist to create a portrait of the mecha.

Lin Fan worked with Wu Yusen for a physical exam in the morning, and rested in the afternoon and evening. If she wanted to move around freely, she had to be led by Wu Yusen; she couldn't act alone. After all, she was unfamiliar with the Special Affairs Office, and she let Wu Yusen lead her because they were most familiar with each other.

After returning, Jin Sichen sorted out Lin Fan's condition, made a detailed rehabilitation plan, and prepared to carry out systematic treatment for Lin Fan.

Wang Fengfeng searched all the news related to the transformation mecha on the Internet and abroad.

Zong Cheng searched for mecha-related literature and looked for relevant information to see if there were any similar situations.

Xue Ping went to the internal database of the Special Affairs Office to search for previous cases to see if there were any related or similar situations.

Mr. Qian didn't make any arrangements, the earrings he gave were already the best gift.

After the meeting, everyone dispersed. Wu Yusen first took Lin Fan to the Human Resources Department to get a visitor card. Last time, they came in from Ri Ri Hong and asked for it at the front desk. This time, they entered through the back door, so they could only get the card from the Human Resources Department.

"I should have signed an employment contract with you, but your situation isn't entirely clear right now. It's best to wait until you have some certainty before signing, so you can get a firmer grasp on your salary and benefits. You'll be using the temporary card first, and I'll transition you to a work permit once the contract is signed."

Lin Fan held up the white hard card and asked, "Is this only useful for meals?" He had used this card to settle meal bills several times before.

"It also serves as an access control. You can enter any place that can be opened by swiping your card, whether it's a room door or an elevator floor. However, places that cannot be opened by swiping your card are not places you can go. Don't snoop around to avoid misunderstandings with the security guards."

"I'm not going anywhere. I just want to go back and rest." Lin Fan said.

"Go get some rest now," Wu Yusen soothed. He'd known Lin Fan for a few days and had a rough idea of her condition; she tired easily. "You'd better stay in yesterday's house for now. We'll give you a proper residence once your ability level is assessed. Is that house still okay? Do you want to move on?"

"No, it's fine." Lin Fan replied.

"The visitor card can also be used for shopping and trams. It combines the functions of an ID card and a shopping card. But I don't think you're interested in going out. I'll buy something and send it to your room later. If you need anything special, let me know. I'll run an errand and bring you takeout."

"I don't want anything. If I'm bored, I can watch TV. Is the TV in the room okay to watch?" I was too tired the day before and didn't have time to watch TV. Now it seems like I'll be staying for a while, and I can't just sleep all the time. I must find something to pass the time.

"You can watch it. Just insert the card and you can watch it." Wu Yusen replied. Seeing that Lin Fan didn't seem to react to the transformation, he asked curiously, "Don't you feel anything?"

"What?"

"About the mecha transformation. Before, you were adamant you didn't believe you had superpowers, but now that it's proven, why do you still seem to be the same? Maybe you still haven't figured out the transformation thing?"

"I'm not stupid, so how could I not understand?" Lin Fan glanced at him speechlessly. "I just don't know if it's because I have no memories, but it doesn't feel real at all. I know it's real, but it feels fake. Do you understand me?"

"I see. I felt the same way when I saw your mecha in front of me." Wu Yusen quickly empathized with him. "So you are completely accepting of the ability to transform?"

"Is there any other choice besides accepting?" Lin Fan asked. "I see you're all so enthusiastic, I don't even have the right to say no."

"That's not the case." Wu Yusen rubbed his nose guiltily. At this point, Lin Fan really no longer belonged to her.

"A good habit I've learned in the past few years is to accept everything and digest it slowly. Resistance will only make things worse." Lin Fan said slowly.

"Don't worry, Jin Sichen has already started your treatment. You will definitely get better soon." John Woo advised.

"It's not that I don't believe you, but the fact that he hasn't been able to hypnotize me makes me lose confidence in him."

Lin Fan knew that Jin Sichen was a very good psychologist, but he just didn't trust him very much. After all, he had failed repeatedly with him, and there was nothing more trustworthy than this.

“…” John Woo didn’t know how to excuse Jin Sichen, because what Lin Fan said was the truth.

"Come to think of it, we didn't expect the state of being immune to hypnosis. Jin Sichen must have been stunned." Thinking about Jin Sichen's last sigh, maybe he was crying in his heart, John Woo smiled secretly.

"I used to think that if he was good at hypnosis, he could hypnotize me back to my normal state, like before I got sick," Lin Fan said. "Unfortunately, it didn't work out."

"Can hypnosis be used in that way?"

"I don't know. It's useless to me anyway, so there's no need to study it."

The two chatted along the way and soon arrived at the beach house. After Wu Yusen sent Lin Fan inside, he went to the store to buy some snacks and drinks, and also took two magazines, and then left in a hurry.

Lin Fan was just killing time anyway, so it didn't matter where he stayed. He tried to stay relaxed, eat and have fun. After falling asleep, he still had a lot of bizarre dreams all night.

In her dream, she turned into Ultraman, chasing after little monsters. She trampled over many houses along the way. She hit one after another, then another, until, unable to fight anymore, she collapsed to the ground. John Woo and a group of men arrived to dismantle her shell. Zong Cheng also showed up with a large electric drill, trying to unscrew her. Jin Sichen stood on her head, jumping non-stop... The group worked for a long time, but her skin remained untouched. Just as she felt relieved, Old Qian flew down from the sky, waved his hand, and she exploded into pieces...

Being woken up in such a startled way made Lin Fan gasp for breath.

Thanks to the earrings, the fear quickly dissipated, but that doesn't mean the impact is gone. Emotional problems aren't like light switches that can be turned off with a flick of the switch. Some lights go out slowly, and even if a bulb that's been on for a long time goes out, it's still hot to the touch.

Earrings can only make negative emotions disappear as quickly as possible. They are not without any effect. It can only be said that compared to not having earrings, they can reduce a lot of pain and trouble.

Lin Fan lay on the bed, looking at the dark ceiling. She knew she was still afraid.

How could I not be afraid?

She knew nothing about mechas and had almost forgotten what Iron Man looked like. Suddenly being told that she could become like that made her doubt whether she was still human.

But we cannot raise such questions.

How to raise it?

Who are you mentioning?

Will the consequence of raising this issue be being sent to the operating table for slices?

She seemed to still have some value, but she also saw that today's meeting had yielded no useful results. If there were no results for a long time, would they maintain their current attitude? Would they feel that they couldn't use it, nor could they release it, and would do something even more terrible?

Lin Fan's mind was full of thoughts, and all of them were bad scenarios that kept coming up.

Faced with such a big thing, she was able to remain calm and only exploded at night, which was an incredible improvement.

She had no intention of searching for information online.

If an organization like the Special Affairs Office didn't have complete information, there was no question of whether the information online could be found. Even if it was available, it would be misleading. She just had to try to relax and wait for them to give her the results.

So she is afraid of change! Who knows what the result will be after the change, and whether she can accept it?

As it is now, we have to accept the result whether we like it or not.

I don’t know if she can still get compensation if she cooperates like this and there is still no result.

By the way, the compensation hasn’t been given to her yet!

Originally, she wanted to ask when it was given to her when John Woo took her home, but she was taken back before he even got home.

So now...is there any compensation left?

If I had known better, I wouldn't have hesitated so much and should have asked for the compensation when I signed the confidentiality agreement. If I had been killed, my family would still have had some money...

So it’s better to do things sooner rather than later!

But now that she has been diagnosed with superpowers, does that mean she won't get any compensation?

It seems like there's compensation for detecting superpowers. How much is it? It seems like it's quite a lot...

But she didn't sign an employment contract, so if something happens, she won't be compensated, right?

It’s better to sign the contract as soon as possible.

I'll ask John Woo tomorrow.

Lin Fan kept thinking about the compensation and fell asleep again. This time, she slept until dawn when Wu Yusen came to wake her. Since there was no need to rush, and it was a scheduled project, as long as she was hungry, it would be okay to go later.

After two physical examinations, Lin Fan had become quite familiar with the procedure. First, he had to draw a dozen tubes of blood. Then, he and Wu Yusen went to have breakfast, and then went through other tests. The morning passed quickly.

The conclusion on the inspection report is still unanimously "normal".
