Chapter 237
Ji Lin pointed to the empty chair opposite him.
The bugs that drive the starship are all gathered together. Even if the entire central hall is full, there are only a few bugs.
Now it's time to rest again.
Not all insects like to stay at their posts during their rest time. Those who have nothing to do will go to rest and eat, while those who have something to do in the afternoon will go to make preparations.
"Duan Chen is out and won't be back soon."
Ji Lin said it very naturally that he had specially arranged work for Duan Chen so that he could chat with Yan without being disturbed during this time.
Seeing Yan didn't move, he didn't get angry, but softened his voice and used the same tone he used to speak to his heroic father.
"You're standing like this, and I'm sitting. I have to look up to talk to you. It's so tiring."
flame:"……"
Facts have proven that the coquettishness that even male insects can't resist is also a sure-win move for female insects.
Ji Lin was satisfied when he saw him sit down.
He knew that in the eyes of these female insects, who were on average seven or eight years older than him, his age was roughly equivalent to that of an immature insect cub. They looked at him like a cub.
The living environment of the female insects was such that even though they were only a few years older than him, the hardships of survival made them too mature.
Ji Lin has been spoiled since he was a child. It is difficult for them to regard him as a male insect cub who has just reached adulthood as an insect of the same age.
Fortunately, Ji Lin has strong working ability. After taking over the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce, he impressed them with his work. He was also appointed by Mr. Lu Ze...so there were no unpleasant jokes.
Ji Lin looked at Yan in front of him and made his own plans in his mind.
How to say it.
The most obvious symptom of mental disorder is abnormal mental power. In fact, it is very simple to confirm whether it is the case. You can find out by just using your own mental power to check.
"Didn't you say you wanted to tell me about the training arrangements?" Yan felt a little uncomfortable when he looked at her.
His attitude towards creatures like male insects has always been to stay away from them. If it weren't for the rules of the damn gathering place, he would never have taken the initiative to approach the male insects, even with an egg behind him.
"Yan, have you been feeling any emotional issues lately? If you feel bad, you can talk to me."
In the end, Ji Lin didn't suggest using mental power to investigate, as he felt that Yan would reject him... After all, they were not very familiar with each other.
Although they were all insects that left Tianyun Star together, they only met when the Chamber of Commerce was established, and they had only known each other for a little over a month at most.
He decided to try talk therapy.
Thinking about asking the insects that had more interactions with Yan, I came to the conclusion that Yan became more and more taciturn during the time when he left Tianyun Star and returned to Tianyun Star.
This is not a good phenomenon.
Yan was stunned by the question and frowned: "No, I don't think there is any problem."
The newly-adult male insect looked so serious and concerned about him that Yan felt helpless. "Is there something about me that worries you, President?"
Although Ji Lin is young, he still looks like the president of a chamber of commerce, which is reflected in his patriarchal aura.
Putting aside the newly grown and male Zergs, he fully cares about every Zerg in the team. With his ability, he can easily remember the information of all the Zergs he has dealt with.
——After the constraints on mental power were released, his already extensive and strong memory even showed a tendency to develop towards photographic memory.
She has a good memory, a sense of responsibility, and serves as the president who is in charge of coordinating the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce. It is inevitable that she has a bit of a motherly mentality.
He has taken on too much at such a young age.
"Are you sure?" Ji Lin touched his chin and said sympathetically, "Don't be afraid. No other insects will know."
"Look, we're the only ones here."
"I've locked the access to the Central Hall. No bugs can get in until it's unlocked."
Yan frowned, choked by his words, and said: "...President, what exactly do you want to say?"
"Okay, this is my problem. I can't be so roundabout with you." Ji Lin wiped his face and said solemnly, "Then I'll be frank."
"Yan, is there something wrong with your mental strength?"
Ji Lin's straightforwardness left Yan stunned and he didn't know how to answer. He didn't expect Ji Lin to ask him this question which was completely beyond his expectations.
"Why do you ask? I don't think there's anything wrong with it."
After a long while, Yan, who was being stared at by Ji Lin, answered as if nothing had happened.
Ji Lin raised his eyebrows: "Don't lie to me, the reason I asked this is of course because I found something wrong."
In cases of mental disorder, usually only the person himself can find out that something is wrong, and other people cannot see it at all.
Therefore, Yan did not feel guilty at all when he spoke.
But the premise is that this other insect is not a male insect.
Since the Tianjia Zerg are divided into male and female Zerg, the two have supported each other from the past to the present, and they must be indispensable to each other. Otherwise, they would have been cruelly optimized by the Overlord long ago.
Male insects have more than just the function of reproducing offspring with female insects.
Seeing Yan's fearless look, Ji Lin moved the hand on his knee. So even if you can read, you still have to constantly enrich yourself, otherwise you will end up like Yan now.
There are no other bugs here. If I want to convince Yan to confess, I'm afraid I have to be honest first.
Ji Lin thought about it and said, "I am a male insect, you know this flame."
Seeing Yan's confusion, he continued.
"Male insects can sense the mental state of female insects. Our mental powers are even more acute. We don't even need to specifically detect them. Just by the mental power you emit, we can sense whether you are in good condition or not."
Hearing this, Yan was a little surprised and looked at him in disbelief.
Ji Lin didn’t find Yan’s reaction strange. After all, everyone knew that male insects had no mental power.
He casually dropped a sentence that was enough to overturn Yan's cognition.
"Unfortunately, I am probably the only male insect with mental power at the moment." So I have noticed your abnormality, so don't resist.
The corner of Yan's mouth twitched, and he opened his mouth hesitantly but didn't know what to say.
"It doesn't matter if you refuse to admit it." Ji Lin smiled slightly and said, "If you really have a mental disorder, not only can I sense it, but the equipment can also detect it."
"We don't have the right equipment to check it right now. When we return to the Western Ring Star Belt, we can purchase specialized equipment for you and perform relevant inspections on all the female insects."
If it weren't for this, he would have sent Yan to the medical department for a check-up.
It's a pity that they hadn't thought of this before, and the equipment capable of performing high-precision mental tests is very expensive, and coupled with their lack of consideration, it was not included in the purchase order.
It was because Ji Lin discovered that something was wrong with Yan that he looked for relevant information and discovered that the female insect had a disease as hidden as a landmine that could explode at any time.
What he said to Yan was not entirely to scare Yan, he really wanted to check all the female insects.
However, the other female insects were not in a hurry. What was anxious was the insect in front of them, which already had obvious symptoms.
“…”
Seeing Yan was silent, Ji Lin didn't hesitate.
He directly released his mental power, deliberately showing his harmlessness, and his mental power approached Yan little by little.
Unlike the female insects who didn't restrain their spiritual power and always emitted a weak spiritual power from their bodies, Ji Lin had always hidden his spiritual power tightly, only in this way could he avoid being discovered.
This was the first time he exposed his mental power in front of a female insect.
...He had never concealed himself in front of the male insect before.
After all, except for himself, the mental power of all the male insects is still in a blocked state. Even if he uses his mental power without any concealment, it will not be noticed.
Unlike the violent mental power of female insects, the mental power of male insects, when they are calm and not in combat, is like a gentle stream that slowly winds around the unstable mental power of female insects.
Ji Ling just took action here.
Yan on the other side was frightened by his action and jumped three feet away in the next second, and the whole insect and its mental power jumped out.
Ji Lin blinked, looking at Yan who suddenly disappeared from in front of him. "Is it really that scary? This is my first time too. Yan, you really hurt my heart."
He had originally wanted to show Yan that he hadn't lied to him, and to use his mental power to check Yan's current condition. If the problem wasn't serious, he might try using the method in the book to give him a slight mental distance.
Looking at Yan's current appearance, we can tell whether there is a problem with his mental strength or not. He has admitted it himself.
Ji Lin: "Come here, don't stand so far away."
"I have to examine you to see how serious your condition is."
He had a gloomy face, but at the critical moment he looked quite intimidating, making the insect unconsciously ignore his actual age.
"The male insect's mental power can treat the female insect's mental disorder, and there's currently no medication available for you. If you intend to continue to ignore it and let it worsen, I'll have to consider suggesting to the doctor... that we leave you on Tianyun Star."
Yan in the distance froze, frightened by his words.
Yan said with some difficulty: "No, I have no problem, I can handle it."
"—You can't tell the doctor to keep me."
"Whether there is a problem or not, I'll have to check it out to know." Ji Lin frowned.
"Come here quickly."
"It's a secret that I have psychic powers. I've even told you such an important secret. Doesn't that mean I can't make you trust me?"
Ji Lin softened his tone at this point: "Your role is indispensable. If possible, I certainly hope you can stay."
"So, let me check you out, okay?"
Yan pursed her lips and took a few steps to move closer to him: "You won't leave me here?"
"certainly."
No way. If the examination shows that I can't solve the problem myself, I will have to keep Yan even if I really need him.
Ji Lin strongly suspected that the onset of Yan's mental disorder was related to his excessive "responsibility" and the pressure on himself. In addition, he did have more potential and talent than other female insects, which was why the symptoms of the disease broke out first.
Ji Lin smiled, walked up to Yan, and raised his hand to press his shoulder.
"Sit down and don't move."
"I'm not very experienced in examining female insects' mental abilities. If you feel uncomfortable during the process, you can pull my sleeve and I'll stop."
Yan nodded stiffly.
The female insect's mental power is located in the brain, similar to that of the male insect... Ji Lin closed his eyes and released his mental power with a focused expression to sense Yan's spiritual sea.
