I, a Mental Patient, Was Chosen to Participate in AnalogHorror Chapter 498 - 464: Clearing the Level
Without hesitation, Jiang Xiao picked up a bell.
Project 16
Na: Ti Condensing Bell
Effect: Can control enemies with weaker spirit than oneself for five minutes; conversely, one would be controlled for five minutes.
Quite a nifty item.
The only pity is that under normal circumstances, you can’t really tell whether the enemy’s spirit is stronger or weaker than your own.
If the enemy’s spirit is stronger than yours, then you’re screwed...
Of course, there are so usage restrictions.
That is, it must be used when the opponent is unguarded, otherwise, the effect will be greatly reduced.
However, overall it’s still pretty good, Jiang Xiao always felt that he had seen sothing similar to the Ti Condensing Bell in so of the cherry blossom-thed tokusatsu movies.
As for the rest, they were just hook-laden junk, which was agreed upon in advance with the research institute.
After nearing Pennywise, the research institute would provide three items, one from the top 20; the rest were not limited.
So the rest of them were junk, with effects similar to the Corpse of Clarity, all just auxiliary items.
Jiang Xiao was actually ntally prepared for this.
After all, Analog Horror never made a losing deal; it seed likely that many of the valuable items had already been sacrificed to her by the research institute.
"Hehehe..."
As for whether the remaining two items were junk or not, what did it have to do with Jiang Xiao?
Because those were what he took to exchange for Shi Shi!
...
Facing the New Year’s visits from so many significant figures parachuting in, Old Director Qingshan was nervously rubbing his hands together.
Such visits he had only ever seen on TV, who would have thought they’d happen to him, and with no heads-up from above.
It really was a bit too much.
Fortunately, the visitors just made so small talk and quickly turned the topic to Sun Wei and Mu Xitang.
Ah?
At this, the old director and the surrounding doctors’ complexions changed.
They inwardly cursed, it was for Sun Wei and the others!
But to these elderly gentlen and ladies, their behavior looked like sothing else entirely.
Oh no, could it be that Sun Wei and the others had already been...
"Where are they!"
"Sorry, we cannot turn them over!"
Both sides almost said in unison.
The atmosphere instantly stiffened, with the guards following the old n walking up front with cold faces.
At one command, they could tightly seal off Qingshan ntal Hospital.
"I’m here."
Just then, Sun Wei, leading two children, walked out from a room.
"It’s fine, Director, thank you for your care during this ti. When Jiang Xiao cos out, please advise him not to act recklessly."
After speaking to the director, Sun Wei raised her head and looked directly at the officials in front, neither servile nor overbearing.
"I’ll go with you and will cooperate with your investigation, but please don’t trouble Director Qingshan."
"Grandpa Liang!"
"Grandma Wang!"
Just as Sun Wei was ready to surrender, Bai Yi and Mu Xitang, whom she was holding, instantly broke free from her grip and ran over.
Running and crying, even Sun Wei rarely saw such a heartbroken expression on their faces.
Hmm, deed as feigned.
It seed like they recognized these old n and won?
What’s going on?
When they were in the room earlier, it was these two who had been the loudest, shouting that whoever dared to catch them would have their heads blown off.
And now...
"Are they from the military district’s compound?"
Sun Wei asked the old director next to her, as this was the only explanation, since Mu Xitang was obviously familiar with these people.
"Ah... um, yes, most likely... sort of..."
Qingshan, the old orphanage director, was also sowhat uncertain. He had contacted the military compound before, but it had only been over the phone, and they had never t in person.
"However, judging by their appearance, they should be from the compound side."
Bai Yi and Mu Xitang were crying miserably now.
Fervently expressing how the public opinion had affected them over the past two days.
With massive snot bubbles erging as they cried, who would realize they were acting if they weren’t in the know?
Still, these past few days hadn’t been easy for the two little ones.
Even though several sources of the rumors had been dealt with by Director Wang, the waves of public opinion had already been stirred and wouldn’t settle down anyti soon.
As New Year’s approached, the children outside had already started setting off poppers and playing with toy guns.
There were a few tis when Bai Yi and Mu Xitang tried to join in but, as one might guess, they were rejected.
When Sun Wei took them to the supermarket to buy Spring Festival decorations like couplets, dumplings, and sweet rice balls, the other custors intentionally kept their distance, and the store owner adamantly refused to take their money.
Sun Wei didn’t mind, she had considered this possibility, and it was within her expectations.
But for children like Bai Yi and Mu Xitang... such ostracism was definitely hard to take...
They had cried and made a fuss for most of the day until a group of old ladies promised to lift all negative impacts within 24 hours, and only then did they quiet down.
hours?
That quickly?
That would be just in ti for the first day of the Lunar New Year.
If this could indeed be resolved, their family could still have a good Lunar New Year celebration, because it seed that Jiang Xiao would be released soon as well.
"Xi Tang, do the two of you have any talents?" asked a jovial old lady who was holding a little pink doll.
Talents?
"Eating, we eat quickly and have big appetites. Does that count?"
Everyone: ....
As for that, everyone present had witnessed it; as long as they weren’t tired of eating, they could go on without stopping.
"Can you sing or dance?"
"No," both little ones shook their heads in unison, then added, "But we’re really good at fighting!"
Oh wow!
Saying so, they proceeded to demonstrate what they called ’everlasting-flow martial arts.’
Emm...
"Just do whatever, that’s fine, you two can go on the Spring Festival Gala."
Huh?!
Now it was Qingshan’s turn to be surprised.
They were just curious why they were asking the two little ones about their talents, they hadn’t expected the old ladies to want them to perform in the Spring Festival Gala?
"That’s not possible, right? It’s New Year’s Eve tonight, where’s the ti to rehearse a performance?"
The old man asked with uncertainty.
However, the old ladies simply waved their hands nonchalantly.
"That’s their problem, we just need to give the orders."
As for the arrangents, what did it have to do with them?
As the saying goes, when the leaders give the orders, the subordinates run themselves ragged — this wasn’t said without reason.
"No way!"
Sun Wei, who had been silent, suddenly voiced her firm opposition.
"Why? Just appear on the Spring Festival Gala, and all the negative comnts will disappear imdiately."
"This, this is our first New Year together, I don’t want them to leave."
After hearing this, the others couldn’t help but nod. Sun Wei had a point.
It had been more than half a year, and Jiang Xiao might co out tomorrow; taking the two little ones away indeed didn’t seem right.
"Eh? How about we have Bai Yi and Mu Xitang record a blessing video and have the Spring Festival Gala find a ti slot to squeeze it in and play it, does that work?"
Eh?
This nurse’s idea wasn’t bad!
One of the old n nodded and suggested.
"But there’s no need to squeeze it in, the Spring Festival Gala will start broadcasting tonight at 20:00. We can just insert Bai Yi and Xi Tang’s blessing video during the broadcast."
So that ans, as long as soone is watching the Spring Festival Gala, the first thing they’d see would be Bai Yi and Mu Xitang?
