4374 The Other Side 343
Youyou was obviously developing a headache as he spoke. He rubbed his temple and looked at Romanka in bewilderment.
“What should I do?”
“You should rest for a while. Come out for a meal later. You must be hungry!”
The boy nodded and lay back down under the covers. Lisa stayed to look after him while the rest walked out.
Romanka and Alice stepped out into the hallway, their faces troubled. Romanka looked at Alice but said nothing.
“What do you think, Professor? What kind of condition do you think the boy is in?”
“Actually, the outside world forced Youyou to enter this world. I’ve put all the personalities together. So far, according to the information Youyou provided, there’s a girl named Shanshan. She’s 15 or 16 years old. Her personality is based on his mother, Yun Shishi. She’s gentle but tenacious. There’s a mysterious male with an unknown appearance. He’s six feet tall and has an unknown origin. There’s also a girl named Ranran. We learned about her from Shanshan, but she hasn’t appeared so far. I wonder if she really exists in the personality world. The known personalities, along with Gong Fan, are those.”
“So, what do we do next?”
Alice felt rather distressed. “Professor, there’s no harm in being blunt. I agree with your treatment plan. So far, at least, it’s done the least damage to the boy. But his mental condition doesn’t look promising. Should we continue with this?”
Romanka turned and gave her a long look. He raised his eyebrows in disapproval. “What else? Stop here and interrupt the treatment?”
“My heart aches for the boy too much.” Alice frowned.
Especially when she recalled that heart-wrenching expression on the boy’s face when he’d woken up. It was as if he’d struggled to break free from a nightmare, only to have to enter that dream again and again.
Romanka sighed. “Well, what else is there to do? You have to understand that the boy’s condition wasn’t looking good in the first place, and the fact that you’re going to be conservative in your treatment means that the repugnance of conservative treatment is going to take an incredibly long time. Of course, don’t worry. I’ll keep an eye on him. If it doesn’t look good, I won’t enforce the plan.”
“Alright!” Alice felt helpless.
Other than the treatment plan that Professor Romanka had planned, she really could not come up with any other ideas.
It was sunny when the boy woke up. Compared to the gloomy days in that world, the real world had the sort of warm sunlight that made him yearn for it.
After they had finished their meal together, he suggested to go for a walk. Lisa offered to accompany him, but the boy said that he wanted to walk alone and quietly. As Lisa could not possibly leave him by himself, she followed at a distance.
Youyou had just left when Hua Jin received a video call from Yun Shishi. Her wound was slowly healing. Because the wound was rather deep, she hadn’t been able to get out of bed and walk around freely.
In the video, she was in her hospital gown, but she looked noticeably better now, under Mu Yazhe’s meticulous care. “Where’s Youyou?”
The actor said, “If you’d called a little earlier, you could have caught him. I think Lisa has accompanied him to the beach for a walk.”
