Chapter 67 Insomnia

"At the time...it was during class..."

Faced with the serious-looking Professor Jürgen, the teacher straightened his posture and began to weave together his thoughts.

"I didn't notice what happened, but suddenly...Liti started floating..."

"The depth gauge beeped, and I immediately called for backup, but two entities still managed to emerge from the blackboard behind us..."

"The 'police officers' stationed at the school quickly rushed in. They killed the two entities, and no children were injured, but..."

"She's the one who summoned the monster!" the girl shouted. "It's happened so many times! Every single time! My mom says the school is irresponsible!"

"She's a monster! She is a monster!"

Lin Chen noticed that Professor Jürgen's hand was trembling slightly.

He didn't say anything, but simply took out the medicine, put it into a syringe with cute stickers on it, and gave Litty an injection in the neck.

"Professor Jürgen, I understand that Litty's situation is special," the teacher said, walking up to Jürgen. "But... if she continues to lose control like this, we can't treat the safety of other children like this..."

"Let me think about it..." Professor Jürgen said softly.

"Expel her from school!" several girls shouted in unison. "She's an abnormal entity! She..."

"That's not true at all!" Huihui suddenly exclaimed.

The girl turned around and looked at the group of girls huddled together with great emotion.

"It was you...you bullied her!"

"We don't!" the girl in the lead shouted. "So what if we do? She's a monster! She has wings!"

"Her medicine is gone! You must have stolen it! It's making her act strange..." Huihui's eyes were a little red. "You've gone too far..."

"You're framing me!" The girl in the lead looked up. "Do you have any evidence?"

"I...I..."

As Huihui's emotions fluctuated, Lin Chen inexplicably felt a burning sensation in his temples.

He lowered his head, gently rubbed his temples, and sensed a strong instinct.

Instinctively, Lin Chen reached out and touched Huihui's temple.

The next second, the pure white city enveloped him.

"..."

Amidst the radiance of the mirage city, Lin Chen found himself drifting along with Huihui's thoughts.

He saw two girls sitting behind Huihui and Liti in the classroom whispering to each other:

"...She's taking her medicine next class," the girl in the lead whispered, "We'll snatch it from her later..."

"Hehe...she definitely won't be able to handle it this time..."

When class ended, Liti and Huihui went out hand in hand. The girl called over several other girls, and they pretended to chat, crowding together to block the surveillance camera.

Meanwhile, the ringleader—the school bully—took the opportunity to take a bottle of medicine from Litty's drawer and hid it in his pencil case.

"She definitely won't be able to handle this."

"She definitely won't be able to handle this."

In reality, when Lin Chen repeated what the school bully had said, the scene suddenly fell silent.

The school bully suddenly froze, staring at Lin Chen with her pupils slightly contracting.

"What did you say...?"

"She's taking her medicine next class," Lin Chen said softly. "We'll snatch it from her later..."

"You...I don't understand what you're saying..."

"What's hidden in your pencil case?" Lin Chen asked calmly.

"What's it to you? I..."

"The pencil case was hidden in the inner compartment of the schoolbag, with a '53' textbook on top and two workbooks, one for Chinese and one for English."

Lin Chen's voice remained calm.

"What's in that pencil case?"

"......"

The school bully looked like a frightened fawn; her legs trembled slightly, and her mouth opened and closed, but she couldn't say anything.

Her body seemed frozen by Lin Chen's calm eyes, unable to even make the slightest movement to cover herself up.

Huihui was stunned for a moment, then rushed to the school bully's seat and rummaged through her bag to find the bottle of medicine!

"I knew she stole it!" Huihui shouted. "Teacher, look!"

She ran past the group of stunned girls and handed the medicine to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen handed the medicine to Professor Jürgen. The old man looked at the medicine for a while, then turned to his teacher and said seriously:

"Liti suffers from insomnia and has been resonating with the subspace for a long time. As long as she doesn't take the blocking agent, it will cause erosion. I believe the principal has told you about this."

"Yes...yes..."

The teacher was a little confused about what was happening when she saw the young man dressed as an investigator start talking, and the group of children were stunned.

The key point is... he was right—they really did steal Litty's potion.

"Then I believe that the ones who should be held responsible for this are the children who stole her potion," Professor Jürgen said, "not my daughter!"

His voice was firm and hoarse, yet it carried a hint of weariness and pleading from the passage of time.

Seeing the paranormal researcher's expression, the teacher quickly waved his hand:

"Now that the situation has been investigated, the responsibility certainly cannot be placed on Litty. Please take her to the hospital quickly, I will handle things here."

"I will explain the situation to the principal, don't worry."

After receiving her promise, Professor Jürgen seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and the wrinkles on his face smoothed out a bit.

He picked up Litty, glanced at the girls who were crying in fear, and walked out of the classroom without looking back.

"Let's continue with the lesson, okay?" Lin Chen patted Huihui's head. "The matter has been resolved. I'll be with the professor, so don't worry."

"Brother, what happened to you...?"

Huihui's eyes held a mixture of admiration and fear—but Lin Chen knew she wasn't afraid of him.

What she feared was whether her sudden ability would come at a price.

After all, this almost definitively proves that Lin Chen has obtained superhuman strength.

"It's okay, don't worry."

Lin Chen smiled faintly at Huihui, then patted the little girl's head before turning around and catching up with Professor Jürgen.

At the school gate, an ambulance was already waiting. Litty was asleep when she got in, and her vital signs were beeping steadily.

Lin Chen and Professor Jürgen sat together, gazing at the girl on the hospital bed.

"You said she suffers from insomnia," Lin Chen said softly, "I believe that condition doesn't refer to...not being able to sleep, right?"

Could mere insomnia lead to subspace erosion?

"Insomnia is just a symptom; the cause of her illness is very complex."

Professor Jürgen wiped the sweat from his forehead, and Lin Chen realized that he really was an old man. The weariness that was usually hidden deep in his eyes was now overflowing and turning into wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

"Simply put, from the moment she was born, something deep within the subspace has been trying to resonate with her, which makes it impossible for her to fall asleep no matter what."

"And if she doesn't sleep for a period of time, it will attract erosion..."

"It's like... something is taking her back to the subspace."
