Red Moon Hospital, Psychiatric Ward.

Lu Mian "teleported" directly outside Li Li Keji's ward.

He had already put on his sunglasses and mask again.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was coming to this area for the time being, Lu Mian slapped the steel door.

Almost at the same time, his spiritual intuition told him:

There was no one in this ward anymore!

Lu Mian's spirit tightened, and he "flashed" into the ward.

It was empty, with no one and no mushrooms, and the quilt was folded neatly.

Lu Mian took out a mirror, preparing to use divination to find Li Li Keji.

At this moment, he frowned, deliberated slightly, and gave up the idea, fearing he would divine a scene he couldn't bear at the moment.

He "teleported" outside the ward area, maintaining the posture of wearing sunglasses and a mask, came to the nurse station, and said in a calm voice:

"I'm here to visit a patient. Which room is Li Li Keji in?"

The nurse who was organizing medical records raised her head and asked back in surprise:

"You don't know?

"Li Li Keji has been transferred back to Mushu Hospital. He was diagnosed with mental problems. Although he doesn't have to go to jail, he has to be locked up for treatment from now on."

Transferred back to Mushu Hospital? Lu Mian's heart sank, and he immediately asked:

"When did this happen?"

"This morning," the nurse said, becoming impatient. "If you want to visit him, go to Mushu Hospital."

This morning... At that time, I returned to the real world to report the situation, and Jenna and Anthony were also kicked out of the dream. Only Franca, who was in a bad state, was left with Ludwig secretly protecting Luo Shan, unable to take care of Li Li Keji at all. Moreover, last night's events were too urgent, and later he had to deal with Franca's mental and psychological problems, so he couldn't think of notifying the "Mystic Queen" in advance... They really grasped the timing well... Lu Mian asked again:

"Who came to handle the transfer procedure?"

"Of course it was the patient's family, his mother," the nurse said, looking at the mask and sunglasses covering Lu Mian's face with suspicion.

His mother... Mother... Lu Mian's scalp tingled, and he asked with a forced laugh:

"How did you confirm that it was his mother?"

If I said I was, would you believe it too?

The nurse he asked said with a mix of anger and amusement:

"She brought the household registration book!

"And the patient's boss testified!"

Huang Huang Jiajia is cooperating with Li Li Keji's "mother" to handle the transfer? Lu Mian didn't ask anymore and turned to walk out of the psychiatric ward.

His first reaction was to quickly find a corner with no one, "teleport" directly to Mushu Hospital, and see if he could get the treatment mushroom before Li Li Keji truly became the mother's child, and save him.

If the "jailbreak" failed, he would switch to assassination, completely clearing out this dream image and not leaving it for the "Great Mother."

Just about to trigger the black imprint on his right shoulder, Lu Mian had a new idea.

He didn't have a helper right now, so he needed to find one.

So, he took out his phone, entered the ride-hailing app, and chose to go from Red Moon Hospital to Mushu Hospital.

During this process, he walked out of Red Moon Hospital all the way and sent a message to Franca:

"Li Li Keji has been transferred back to Mushu Hospital. You take Ludwig and wait outside Mushu Hospital. If necessary, let Ludwig come in to find me.

"Remember to notify Luo Shan, let her be spirited this afternoon, be ten thousand times careful, and it's best if she goes to chat with Zhou Mingrui from time to time.

"We can't lose one thing while attending to another; we can't save Li Li Keji but lose Luo Shan."

"Good," Franca replied concisely.

After deleting the chat history with the "Information Shredder," Lu Mian stood by the road, waiting patiently for the ride-hailing car to arrive.

In less than two minutes, a white ride-hailing car stopped in front of him.

Lu Mian opened the passenger door and sat in quickly.

His gaze immediately turned to the driver, just in time to see the other party take out a monocle that looked like it was made of crystal and put it on his right eye.

Lu Mian wasn't surprised at all; this was exactly what he expected.

After the driver started the car, Lu Mian said casually:

"Long time no see."

"Not long, I'm often watching you," Amon, who was driving, didn't use any supernatural abilities, just driving normally.

"We've roughly interpreted the symbolic meaning of Peng Deng, Grisha, and others in the dream," Lu Mian said in a flat tone, suppressing the anxious emotions in his heart.

"Let me hear it," Amon honked the horn at the slow-moving car in front.

It could be seen that He had integrated into this dream city very well.

Lu Mian deliberated on his language and described Lady "Justice's" inference simply.

Amon laughed:

"'Spectator' isn't a qualified 'Mystery Pryer.' Although the ideas and direction aren't wrong, the thinking isn't deep enough. If that guy Pallas were here, he would definitely be able to interpret the full symbolic meaning."

"Where is the mistake?" Lu Mian's purpose in bringing up this topic was to get confirmation from Amon.

—According to their inference, Amon and His father, based on some unknown reason, currently didn't intend to maintain balance and wanted to weaken the Celestial Master, letting Mr. 'Fool' wake up in advance. In other words, both sides could be considered temporary allies.

Amon turned his head and glanced at him, smiling:

"'Spectator' said it herself: it's woven based on identities and personalities, not pathways.

"My father, the 'True Creator,' Adam, the original God, as well as the Heaven's Deputy, God's Left Hand, the leader of the Angels of Time, the 'Dark Angel' Sasrir—you count, how many identities are there in total?"

"Five," Lu Mian said thoughtfully. "So the 'Dark Angel' among the eight Angels of Time was also split from the Ancient Sun God..."

This was intelligence he hadn't mastered before.

Amon pinched the monocle on his right eye, his smile undiminished:

"Looking at it this way, the corresponding symbolic meaning is actually quite simple to interpret:

"The Aurora Company boss symbolizes the 'True Creator,' influenced by Mr. 'Fool's' cognition, mainly active next to the Intis Group headquarters. Peng Deng and Grisha symbolize the one you hate the most and the original God, but their specific positions aren't fixed; they can swap at any time, symbolizing fusion and confrontation. Nie Zhen symbolizes the 'Dark Angel,' representing the part split from my father. Adam's rib is his Eve.

"The 'True Creator' and Adam have already had a fusion of consciousness, so they don't need to share an apartment anymore; they can use Mr. 'Fool's' cognition to act in different identities, but their thinking is interconnected."

"Visionary" Adam? Lu Mian nodded slightly:

"Zhang Yujia symbolizes your father, the Ancient Sun God?"

"The bone church itself is His. Zhang Yujia wanders outside the dream city, symbolizing that my father has already exited this stage and is now being confronted by His successors and the original God. This is also Mr. 'Fool's' cognition," Amon said in a slightly mocking tone. "As for the symbolic meaning of sharing an apartment and moving out, I don't need to interpret it for you again, right?"

This explanation is indeed clearer, but in this matter, one can't fully trust Amon either... Lu Mian laughed "Heh":

"Why is your father's dream image female?

"Is it because Mr. 'Fool's' other childhood friend is indeed a lady, or in Mr. 'Fool's' cognition, your father gave birth to you and the 'Angel of Imagination,' and split off the 'Dark Angel,' making Him a successful mother?"

Amon laughed:

"The last guy who interpreted this aspect of symbolism also mocked it like this. You two are indeed a bit alike."

"Who?" Lu Mian asked vigilantly.

"Didn't you guess it?" Amon glanced at Lu Mian. "'Red Angel' Medici."

"He can also enter Mr. 'Fool's' dream?" Lu Mian frowned.

Could it be that the "Red Angel" had fallen to the Celestial Master?

Currently, it seems that except for True Gods and those holding Mr. 'Fool's' coins, only a few objects who have received special endowments from the Celestial Master can enter this dream city.

Um, other Great Beings now also seem to be able to send one or two subordinates in with the help of the illusory abyss under Mushu Hospital, for example, Lü Yong'an. However, the "Red Angel" is unlikely to cooperate with those evil gods. In the hostel incident, He just pitted those evil gods...

"He has a corresponding image in the dream city and got the help of the top 'Dream Weaver,' so of course He can come in," Amon explained in a light tone.

"The help of the top 'Dream Weaver'..." Lu Mian suddenly had a flash of inspiration. "It wasn't the 'Angel of Imagination' who helped Him come in, but the original God?"

"The enemy of an enemy is a friend," Amon said with a smile. "However, the enemy of an enemy might also still be an enemy, for example, you and Medici."

"The 'Red Angel' is so quiet in the dream? What is He doing, planning what?" Lu Mian, wearing sunglasses and a mask, asked.

Amon shook His head:

"You go find Him yourself, go ask Him."

Before Lu Mian could ask again, Amon laughed:

"Peng Deng risked exposing his identity, but it wasn't to let you know who He is. Have you interpreted what He really wanted to hint at?"

What He really wanted to hint at... Lu Mian fell into deep thought.

After ten seconds or so, he turned to say:

"Is the dream master's image in this city also split?

"Director Ageria, you, and Zhou Mingrui?"

Amon revealed a pleasant expression:

"Do I look like the master of the dream to you?"

He said in a tone of teaching:

"You have to know how to exclude the interference of complex information and see the most fundamental facts.

"The most fundamental fact is that 'The Fool' has never accommodated the uniqueness of the 'Error' and 'Door' pathways, while the Celestial Master has."

This... Lu Mian vaguely grasped what Amon was hinting at.

Just as he wanted to confirm with vague language and indirect methods, the car stopped.

"Mushu Hospital has arrived," Amon suddenly switched to the tone of a skilled ride-hailing driver.

Lu Mian thought for two seconds and pushed the door to get off.

"Remember to give a good review!" Amon waved and drove away quickly.

"Uh..." Lu Mian was stunned.

His real purpose in calling the ride-hailing car was to ask Amon for help to save Li Li Keji together, but the other party actually just left like this!

Left...

Amon, as the symbol of the uniqueness of the "Error" pathway, couldn't directly intervene in similar matters and could only help indirectly? Lu Mian withdrew his gaze thoughtfully.

Wearing sunglasses and a mask, he looked at Mushu Hospital, no longer hesitated, and stepped toward the psychiatric department located behind the main building.
