Some time passed.
Ye Lan finally received a message from Ji Yun.
As expected, the Leader wanted to see her.
He must have just recovered from his headache.
Thinking this, Ye Lan replied to Ji Yun's message.
The next second, the latter's figure quickly appeared in the rest room.
"Ye Lan, the Leader is looking for you."
"Mm-hmm, let's go now."
After Ye Lan nodded in response, Ji Yun came to her side and quickly teleported her to the office door.
This time Ye Lan entered alone, finding the Leader sitting at his desk with a contemplative expression.
Seeing this, Ye Lan cautiously asked, "Um... Leader, are you alright?"
"I'm fine... just a bit mentally fatigued from the sudden headache."
The Leader let out a soft sigh.
He remembered nothing and thought it was Star Eclipse contamination from the Dream Narrator. Several Radiant Suns had caused trouble in this severe pain, some even self-sealing their Stars.
It seems they were all worried about the risk of Star Eclipsing.
However, upon discovering it was just an ordinary headache, the Leader finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at Ye Lan before him, the Leader seriously inquired, "Ye Lan, what exactly happened to us in the dream? Please explain in detail."
"Oh."
Then Ye Lan told the Leader everything that happened in the dream, without any concealment.
After listening, the Leader quickly fell into deep thought.
"Hmm..."
Ye Lan sat obediently on the nearby sofa, not saying much.
"Um... Leader, what should we do next? This Dream Narrator seems very troublesome. Do we really have to wait until he's satisfied for it to end?" Ye Lan asked uneasily.
After all, this concerns when she can return to Yunzhang City.
Who knows when that Dream Narrator will be satisfied?
If he could be satisfied quickly, that would be fine, but if it takes a long time to satisfy him, wouldn't Ye Lan have to stay in the capital for a long time?
Moreover, she doesn't want to sleep all day and night anymore.
She wants to return to Yunzhang City and cuddle with a group of soft, fragrant little lolis!
If this isn't resolved soon, she'll run away!
Seeing Ye Lan becoming a bit impatient, the Leader began to reassure her.
"Don't worry, the Night Watchers aren't completely without options. There's a Radiant Sun Night Watcher in headquarters who can resolve this matter, but it requires time."
"Hmm? Can you tell me about it?"
Ye Lan became curious.
Such a troublesome matter can be resolved by just one Radiant Sun Night Watcher? How amazing must they be?
And in such an unsolvable situation as the dream, for Night Watchers to deal with the Dream Narrator is practically hell-level difficulty.
Regarding Ye Lan's inquiry, the Leader didn't conceal anything from her.
"It's the Causality Star."
"Causality!?"
Hearing this term, Ye Lan immediately widened her eyes, clearly knowing the outrageous nature of this term.
As is well known, causality refers to the most important and direct relationship between all things.
It indicates that any phenomenon or thing must have its cause, such as "things have their root and branch, events have their beginning and end" or "sow melons, reap melons; sow beans, reap beans" and so on.
If humans could master causality weapons, it would definitely be another phenomenon.
Ye Lan didn't expect that in this capital full of hidden talents, there would be such a thing as a Causality Star. As expected of headquarters!
"Then? What effect does that Causality Star have?"
Ye Lan was already interested.
If it's a real Causality Star, it might be as powerful as her own Wish Machine.
The Leader smiled helplessly.
"Don't hold too high expectations. Although it barely qualifies as a Causality Star, it's far from as powerful as the legendary causality weapons."
"Hmm, don't keep us in suspense, Leader!"
"Then I'll just briefly explain. Actually, that Radiant Sun Night Watcher's Star can derive a solution to resolve the event within a certain time."
"Eh? What does that mean?"
"Simply put, from the day the Dream Narrator appeared, that Causality Star has already activated. After activation, it locks onto this matter, recognizing it as a problem. Under the thought correction of its host, that is, the Radiant Sun Night Watcher, it obtains the most suitable solution. No matter the process, we Night Watchers can use this solution to resolve the problem, with a 100% success rate."
"Wow!"
Ye Lan's eyes sparkled with little stars.
If it can be done like this, doesn't that mean we don't have to worry about being unable to solve any catastrophic disaster?
"Then how long does it take to derive a solution?"
"Hmm... depending on the complexity of the matter, at least half a month to a month, or perhaps longer."
"Ah... that's quite long."
"So this is the final line of defense. The derived solution might not be too perfect, possibly unable to consider everything, or might require a great price. Therefore, its level is limited to Radiant Sun, not reaching an Exceptional Star."
"Hmm~"
Ye Lan fell into thought.
Then this Star only barely touches on causality, not as powerful as her Wish Machine.
At this point, she suddenly thought of something and said, "If a solution will be obtained sooner or later, does that mean you don't need my help anymore? Can I return to Yunzhang City?"
The Leader lightly shook his head.
"It's not that simple. All factors in the capital are conditions for the Causality Star's activation. Perhaps your presence can make the solution come faster. If you leave, it might take much longer. So you should stay here for now."
"Oh."
Ye Lan felt a bit disappointed, but not too disheartened.
After all, this was just a tentative inquiry, she didn't have high hopes to begin with.
After they had nothing more to say, Ye Lan left.
Ji Yun took Ye Lan back to her original rest room, as if nothing had happened.
The perspective shifts to the theater.
Tomorrow they will perform in a certain area of Qiyuan City.
The members of the Rising Sun Troupe are already prepared.
Ye Xing sits in the middle of the first row of the audience seats, seemingly lost in thought.
At this time, a voice wakes her up.
"What's wrong? You look unmotivated."
The Announcer's figure had appeared beside Ye Xing at some point.
Ye Xing's body gradually slumps, then slides from the chair to the ground.
"I've lost motivation..."
"Heh~ Seems the capital's matters are troubling you. The Leader still won't let you return?"
"Hmm... because it's not resolved yet. Why don't you, Mo Tutu, put in some effort? You were so helpful before, but now you're useless here. Useless children will be cursed to become feminized, you know."
"Well, no matter how much you curse me, it won't happen. You'll have to rely on yourself for this," Mo Tutu said cheerfully.
Ye Lan glared at her dissatisfiedly, expressing her doubt.
"You... do you simply not want to make an effort? Did you come here just to watch the fun?"
Mo Tutu spread her hands innocently.
"You're misunderstanding me. This time I really can't do anything."
"Hmm... then you might as well turn into a loli who can only be cute."
Ye Xing lay on the clean theater floor, her expression lifeless.
