Chapter 206: Made It Seem Like I Wanted to Harm Her

“It’s nothing. I’m just curious about your short-sightedness.” Chi Jiao smiled casually.

Zou Xingxing pushed her gla.s.ses up her nose bridge and answered seriously, “Eight hundred degrees.”

“Medical study is very advanced nowadays. You can consider doing a vision correction surgery,” Yi Lanlan suggested enthusiastically.

However, Zou Xingxing shook her head crazily. “No! I can’t do surgery!”

Her tone was very firm. After she said that, Yi Lanlan, Dang Nan, and Chi Jiao looked at her quietly.

The atmosphere became extremely awkward.

Zou Xingxing seemed to have realized that her reaction was overboard, and her expression turned ugly. She stood up abruptly and said, “I’m going to the washroom.”

With that, she turned around and left quickly.

“What’s wrong with her?” Yi Lanlan was confused. “I only gave her a suggestion. I wasn’t forcing her to undergo eye surgery. Why is she so agitated? She made it seem like I wanted to harm her.”

“Maybe it’s because she’s afraid of surgery,” Dang Nan said quietly.

Yi Lanlan shrugged, her face filled with confusion.

Chi Jiao picked up the cup of fruit juice and took a sip from the straw. She lowered her gaze to hide the cold glint that flashed past her eyes.

When she said she didn’t want to undergo surgery earlier, Zou Xingxing’s expression was clearly terrified. It was obvious that Yi Lanlan’s words had evoked some very unpleasant memories.

She remembered that in Country Hua, the ZF Organization was established specifically to target Espers. It was not just Country Hua. Various countries had them as well.

Without the management and control of the ZF Organization, it would easily cause serious public security issues if some gifted Espers wanted to mess around.

After all, ordinary humans were indeed weak and vulnerable in comparison to Espers with special abilities.

In Country Hua where human rights were paramount, Espers were also legitimate citizens and enjoyed ordinary human rights. However, at the same time, the ZF Organization had established particular rules to restrict Espers.

For example, Espers could not expose the truth about their special abilities in front of ordinary people, nor could they use their abilities to hurt others or commit illegal acts. If they broke the rules, they would be punished accordingly.

However, it was not easy to be an Esper either. Under the influence of the meteorite’s magnetic field, the mental state of an Esper could be easily contaminated and they could suffer from all kinds of mental illnesses. This was called an Esper Negative Effect by the researchers who studied Espers.

Jin Yiming was an example. His antisocial personality disorder was partly due to his abilities’ negative effects, not just because of his unfortunate childhood.

An Esper like Jin Yiming, who was mentally unstable, would be sent to a specific psychiatric hospital designated by the ZF Organization for treatment. Among these treatments was surgery. It was said that this surgery process was very cruel and required the Espers to receive the so-called magnetic field radiotherapy when they were conscious. It was a fate worse than death.

After realizing that she was an Esper, Chi Jiao spent a lot of effort researching the information available about Espers. This was why she knew so much.

The existence of Espers was a secret in Country Hua and other countries. Ordinary people would not have access to such things.

If Zou Xingxing was really an Esper, then it was very likely that she had undergone that kind of surgery before, which was why she was so afraid of surgeries.

“Jiaojiao…” Just as she was deep in thought, Xu Ye’s voice was suddenly heard from beside her.

On the other side of the room, Quan Jue’s eyes darkened and he stood still as he saw Xu Ye slipped over to Chi Jiao’s side.
