Chapter 40: Responsibility
"His vital signs are okay. According to the test results, the manifestation of the mental riot had indeed affected him." The Doctor said after checking Qin An's situation. They are the medical people from He Yan's family.
Pei Roujin frowned. "Mental riot affect him? How? Qin An doesn't have mental power. How could he even be affected by this?"
The doctor sighs. "That's what we're actually wondering why. In some cases, those who don't have mental power are much like an ordinary person. They are like the humans on earth, fragile and vulnerable. Even their life span is the same as theirs, so even if they don't suffer riots, they also live shorter than us and have lower chances to survive. And because of their body, they also have a hard time living on this planet because of faint radiation. They're likely to have high chances of getting sick and dying at an early age. However, in this student's case, there seems to be an error for this." The doctor looked down at the papers which had the results from the laboratory.
"He clearly doesn't have mental power but it was strangely affecting him. Your doctor also told me that he was the one who took care of Young Master He when he was on the riot. And in that time, he didn't have any reaction or rejection upon having a close contact with Young Master He."
"Is it because Lu Nanxiao's riot is much higher than the last time?" Lin Yu asked.
"That's also a probability." The doctor raised his glasses as his face showed a bit of confusion yet unknowingly astonished. "Another possibility... is he could have awakened his mental power that is why he was affected."
"!!!!"
Pei Roujin's face finally showed disbelief. "That's impossible. People who don't have mental power cannot awaken themselves. This was inside us after birth and there was even no medicine that could help them awaken!"
Pei Roujin's reaction is totally different from his usual but they just thought it's because he was greatly shocked by this news. They also thought too so no one noticed how his hands trembled and he clenched it tightly behind him.
"Otherwise how could he be affected?" The Doctor said. "But as I said, those were just speculations. Even if our researchers have tried their best to study this, no one knows how our mental power came about. It's like a blessing."
Pei Roujin's eyes darken. "Blessing? Then what about the people who don't have mental power? Is this their misfortune even if they didn't do anything wrong? Did that blessing give them the right to do anything they want?"
Everyone finally noticed his abnormality. Pei Roujin's reaction is really not right from his usual indifference.
"Mr. Pei, I believe that you also knew that mental power isn't just a blessing. Yes, it gave us power to be strong but don't forget about the mental pollution. You also experience its pain every day." Butler He couldn't help but intervene with his serious expression. He was a former soldier who fought with countless brave heroes. They are those who are in frontline so their pollution are much greater. Even now that they had retired, the pain is still inside them.
He also thinks that mental power is indeed a blessing for them to survive, but it is also a curse that will never go away until their death.
Pei Roujin didn't answer anymore. The atmosphere became somewhat delicate by this so some trainees decided to leave silently.
"But, we really can't be sure about everything." The doctor who's busy looking at the medical results apparently didn't notice the tense atmosphere. "If I can have the patient's approval, we can continue studying his situation."
