Chapter 255 - Other Peoples Affairs (2/2)

”You want to talk to him?” Lei Xing asked as she promptly removed her hand from his, realizing where he was going with this.

The Emperor knit his brows at her sudden distancing but he nodded, ”If it's okay with you...Or do you -”

”No, no. It's fine...Ah, he has not been responding to me today but we can try.” Lei Xing said with a fleeting smile. She was not sure if it would work now since she had just touched him but she would try.

{...Oy, doc?...Hello? Are you still alive? No?...Asleep? WAKE UP!...}

{...*...}

{...Tch, answer -_-)'...}

”Xing er'?” The Emperor called when Lei Xing frowned. Lei Xing looked at him and then took off the bracelet and said, ”You try.”

The Emperor reached out to take the bracelet but then she suddenly stopped him and said, ”stretch out your palm.” The Emperor raised an eyebrow but complied, and then she dropped the bracelet onto it from above and said, ”Go ahead, try.”

”Hello?” The Emperor said.

”You can just do it through your mind.” Lei Xing explained.

”Ah.” The Emperor responded, remembering.

{...Hello?...}

{...*...}

{...Hello? Doctor?...Doctor Lou?...}

{...*Yesss?... How can I help you? ( ￣^￣ )...}

”He's here...” The Emperor said with a smile towards Lei Xing. Lei Xing returned a strained smile, she could see that the good doctor was here just by looking at the bracelet. And honestly, she was mildly irritated that he had been ignoring all day, yet when the Emperor came calling, he swiftly responded.

{...How coincidental ≖_≖)...You were intentionally ignoring me, weren't you? I'll get you...later -_-)'...}

”Go ahead, talk to him.” Lei Xing urged the Emperor, hiding her irritation and showing her full support. The Emperor looked back down at the bracelet and explained the situation.

{...I had a strange encounter last night. Where a group of people were surrounded but then they disappeared with a bright blue light from nowhere..in an instant...Have you seen - or heard of anything like this before?...}

Doctor Lou was silent for a while and then the Emperor knit his brows and went, ”Hello?”

”He likes to use silence to build up momentum, but he's still there...” Lei Xing reassured with a smile. So the Emperor nodded and patiently waited for a bit longer and then finally, Doctor Lou spoke up.

{...*Hmmmmmmm...Well, I have...}

”He has!” The Emperor said, somewhat excitedly, looking up at Lei Xing. Just as he thought, this old man would know.

The Emperor looked back down at the bracelet in his hand and went, ”So how did it happen? How is that possible? Do you know who they are?” The Emperor asked out loud again, he did not mind Lei Xing hearing the conversation and actually wanted to include her. It felt wrong excluding her, after all, it was her contact giving the answers.

{...*Hmmmm... Well, this is honestly someone else's affair...and who they are? I don't know nor do I really care to...I don't like to get involved in other people's matters. It's troublesome~ ( ￣^￣ )...}
