PsychicCh85 - She is a Rotten Monster

Edited by Noks and Qiuxue


Song Rui did not believe that anything supernatural existed in this world, nor did he believe that anything other than intelligence could lead human beings in accomplishing tasks beyond their power. X3FjnU

However, after meeting Fan Jialuo, he seemed to have gained a whole new understanding of the world, and finally admitted to himself that in this world there existed strange people and unique things that could not be explained through scientific means, and that Su Fengxi was one of them.

He had never been attracted to her singing voice, not even once. Her voice might resemble the sound of nature for others, but in his ears, it turned into creaky, grating sounds that were too much to bear.

Su Fengxi was like a demon standing on the edge of the abyss, beckoning with her beautiful slender hands, constantly tempting the muddled human beings to approach and fall. 

No weak-willed person would find themselves able to resist this temptation, just like how a person filled with desire wouldn’t refuse the devil’s bargain.  ovQpu1

But Song Rui was not the same as those people.

He would not fall into the abyss created by Su Fengxi, simply because he himself was an abyss as well. And he could not be tempted by the devil, because he was the devil himself.

Her music could touch upon the most secret desires that lay in his heart, but for him, these desires had nothing to do with love, instead, they were made of anger and destruction.

The glimmer of light Fan Jialuo saw in him was completely extinguished with Su Fengxi’s singing. So, how could he even like this singer?

The only emotion he had for her was disgust, just like how he hated the whole world.

Song Rui gripped Song Wennuan’s hand, which had stretched out to pull at his collar, and reminded her in a cold voice, “Don’t forget that you are working. Please be professional.”

It was like a heavy hammer knocked on Song Wennuan’s head when she heard the word ‘working’, allowing her to break away from the strange fanaticism and return to normal.

After returning to sit in her original position, she took a deep breath and smiled at the camera.  vPSpwJ

“Just now, we were discussing too many irrelevant things. Now, let’s please have the director show us the camera feed of the lounge, so that we can see the situation of our contestants. Ah, they are wearing eye masks, which act as blindfolds for them. Please be patient for a while, the staff have to inspect each blindfold one by one.”

Song Wennuan awkwardly brushed her hair behind her ear. “I’m really sorry that we judges, as fans of Su Fengxi, made a fool of ourselves in front of the audience. But Dr. Song, it seems that you are only a fan of Teacher Fan; it’s just like what the netizens have been saying. You only blow rainbow farts for him.”

Upon hearing Song Wennuan mention Fan Jialuo, Song Rui’s attention once again focused back on her, and after hearing her statement, he asked inexplicably, “What is a rainbow fart?”

Song Wennuan was left stunned for a long time. Then, she covered her mouth and explained, “Dr. Song, you don’t even know about rainbow farts. You really are an old-fashioned scholar. Blowing rainbow farts is a common method of expression found in fan circles, basically meaning that if you are infatuated with your idol, you will use all kinds of boastful words to praise him, saying that he is good everywhere and possesses no shortcomings.” I05z3W

“Good everywhere? No shortcomings?” Song Rui repeated this sentence, and after careful consideration, smiled softly. “It does seem to be so, and indeed, no shortcomings have been found so far.”

Song Wennuan rolled her eyes in an exaggerated manner and turned to face the nearest camera while half-covering her mouth, “Sure enough, our Dr. Song is blowing rainbow farts!”

Following that though, she posed a serious question. “Dr. Song really can’t find any shortcomings? As a psychologist, you should know that there exists no perfect person in the world. So please be rational, objective and fair in your assessment.”

Song Rui dropped his eyes and after thinking for a moment, nodded. “If you insist on me pointing out one shortcoming, it’s that he’s too mysterious and elusive.” 9wuUjI

Song Wennuan rolled her eyes even more exaggeratedly than before at this answer. “Okay, okay, I got it. Now, I’ll give you a nickname— ‘Teacher Fan’s fanatic fan’, do you agree?”

“What do you mean by fanatic fan? Am I constantly flattering him? I can’t agree with that. Objectively speaking, I am not flattering him, but it’s true that…”

Despite the serious tone to Song Rui’s retorts, he didn’t really feel displeased about his newly acquired nickname.

Song Rui was wearing an extremely luxurious three-piece suit, embellished with a tie clip and cufflinks belonging to SDT’s most luxurious collections, today as well. The obsidian edges of these accessories were lined with top grade yellow diamonds.  RxjdpF

Therefore, later, when this section was broadcast, he caught on fire and was given the title of being the ‘Top Star of the Academic Circle’ by the netizens. However, his concern and favoritism for Fan Jialuo also caused some criticism.

Originally, Song Wennuan mentioned Fan Jialuo to Song Rui on purpose, so as to divert everyone’s attention from the previous awkward scene that she had created. But now, it seemed that there was no need for that. RaHMok

Song Rui didn’t care about what others thought, he just favored Fan Jialuo. He saw no reason and no need to conceal it from the world.

Song Wennuan sighed silently before saying helplessly, “Stop! Dr. Song, let’s redirect our attention back to the main screen. The first contestant has already put on his blindfold. We now invite him to enter the Test Room!”

Song Rui waved his hand and stopped talking. 

He didn’t mean to try and justify himself, but whenever Fan Jialuo was mentioned, he really did end up talking a bit more than usual.  ftVTJR

He then focused his attention on the big screen in order to piece together a general impression of Su Fengxi from the contestants. 

In his eyes, she was a heresy who possessed a certain degree of danger. But the most terrifying thing about this at present was that no one was aware of this potential danger that lurked around them. 

The first contestant to enter the Test Room was not a strong one, so was unable to supply any particularly constructive information. 

In addition to the blindfold that he wore, a curtain separated him and Su Fengxi. He could only vaguely recognize that the room was filled with the energy of a woman, and that she was a beautiful woman. h28Inw

Hearing the contestant’s praise, Su Fengxi smiled beautifully at the camera. The cameraman, who was taking close range shots of her was stunned by her beauty, falling into utter fascination.

He kept zooming the camera lens on her, taking frames of her flawless face and curvy body. His preference for her could be felt clearly from across the screen, and those who were watching Su Fengxi through his lens were also driven out of their minds. 

‘This kind of temptation was similar to drug addiction,’ thought Song Rui as his eyebrows furrowed even more. 

He felt that he had stepped into a bizarre and fantastic world specially created for Su Fengxi. Within this world, she was the first ray coming from the morning sun, the rain and the dew, the thunder and the lightning— she was the center of everything. YCX8Wz

It was as if with a smile or even a slight glance, she could control anyone’s soul in the palm of her hand.

After this episode aired, Su Fengxi’s appearance would surely set off a storm in the Internet circles. This was because even though she had released a lot of new songs, she had never appeared in public nor had she shot a music video. 

Chrysanthemum Garden.

In short, ‘The World of Strange People’ was the first TV program that she would be attending since she had made a comeback and become more popular than ever. This first and exclusive appearance would drive her frans crazy.

Speaking of such, how many fans did she have? 80 million or 90 million? hzIaRH

Song Rui checked his mobile phone. A few days ago, the number of people following her was only in the range 80 to 90 million, but today, it was over 100 million. The speed of its rise was simply terrible.

Especially after considering that she had not made any public appearances after releasing her songs, the situation became even more abnormal.

Song Rui picked up his pen and wrote 【Monster】in his notebook, before crossing it out and changing it to 【Devil】.

If psychics really existed, then reincarnation should also exist, and so should other worlds. And if that was the case, it only made sense that monsters and devils also existed, right?  eNpKBb

After making a few disorderly conjectures, the first blindfolded contestant finished the test. He uttered a lot of compliments, which if applied to any woman, it would make them very happy. But there was nothing particularly outstanding in his compliments.

The second contestant walked into the Test Room. After half an hour, the third and the fourth followed one after another…

Throughout all this, Su Fengxi had remained seated quietly in the most gentle posture on the sofa, wearing the most charming smile, carrying the most fatal temptation.

The stronger contestants finally appeared one after another.  cxq16T

Su Fengxi seemed to sense something different about the contestants as soon as they entered the Test Room.

When Yuan Zhongzhou walked in, she put down her leg and shifted into a more formal sitting posture, looking at the curtain with eyes full of excitement. 

Yuan Zhongzhou took his handbell out from his robe and shook it lightly. 

Dingling, dingling, dingling…  gtGkhd

The tinkle of bells spread out like water waves, penetrating the wind and all objects in-between until it reached Su Fengxi, before swaying back slowly.

Su Fengxi’s pupils momentarily contracted, but there was no other change in her expression.

At the same time, Fan Jialuo, who was leaning with his back against the wall of the waiting room, closed his eyes as he sensed the sounds of the handbell in silence.

Whatever Yuan Zhongzhou could hear, he would only hear more.    kwNHyu

After a while, Yuan Zhongzhou said slowly, “The mysterious guest is a woman. There’s fire burning around her body, releasing a strong breath of life. She can bring great warmth and awe to people, and she becomes the focus of everyone’s attention wherever she goes.

“I see a bright light within her body, that is her most essential strength. She will definitely achieve extraordinary achievements in the future! She is life itself!

“Even if she encounters difficulties, she can always rely on a strong will to get through it, because her heart is filled with light, there is no darkness in her, none at all!

“There is no doubt that this is a very good, kind, outstanding, and dazzling lady!  nQUM0k

“If I get closer, I’ll be burned by her brilliance. There are many people who love her, a large number of people, and she is very much deserving of such love.”

Hearing this excessive amount of praise, Su Fengxi turned her head and covered her face, as if she didn’t want any of the cameras to capture her embarrassed expression. But, the teardrops that flickered on her thick eyelashes flashed straight into the depths of people’s hearts.

Once again, this scene stunned the cameraman, so much so that he took a half-minute long close-up. 

In the observation room, Song Wennuan took the lead in applauding. “Yuan Zhongzhao deserves to be our second strongest psychic, he could see the innermost part of Su Fengxi’s heart. S7voJ8

“Yes, she did have bad rumors about her floating around before, but everyone has the right to choose freely, so why can’t she do so too? Her lifestyle hasn’t disturbed anyone else, so why can’t we be more tolerant? 

“I believe that someone who can sing such beautiful songs will not be a bad person.”

Dr. Ouyang, Dr. Lin and Dr. Qian agreed, following suit by praising Yuan Zhongzhou for his skills, while Song Rui continued watching from the sidelines with his arms crossed as he came to a conclusion — Yuan Zhongzhou was not powerful enough to see Su Fengxi’s true self.

The next contestant was Zhu Xiya. After spending ten minutes sensing, she said, “This is a lady. Beautiful, pure, and kind, the surging breath of life exudes from all over her body.  C0PlTj

“This breath has even managed to attract my magic power, and makes me feel very comfortable. I also hear a burst of music, faintly discernible and ethereal, as if it comes from the heavens…”

After a moment of silence, she sincerely added, “I like this lady very much. If I can, I wish I could spend more time with her.”

Su Fengxi covered her mouth and smiled, her eyes gleaming with joy.

A Huo followed next, and after sniffing through the curtain for a while, said firmly, “This is a girl. She smells sweet and fragrant, and her body is filled with extraordinary vitality. She is a really, really good person.”  g4NR2m

He emphasized ‘really’ twice to show just how much he liked this mysterious guest.

He Jinglian walked slowly into the Test Room and spent about three minutes before coming to the conclusion, “This is a very beautiful woman. Her emotions are akin to a white cloud that floats on the top of Tianshan Mountain. 

“It is very soft, very pure, and very holy. She possesses a crystal clear heart, and is the most simple and purest person I have ever met.”

Ding Puhang was the second to last contestant to appear, and after a long duration of silence, he shook his head and said, “I can’t see anything, so I can’t tell you for certain what is behind the curtain, but I do hear a song, which keeps echoing in my mind.  NnukS0

“I don’t know what it means, but I can tell you that this song is quite to my liking.”

He stood up and swayed in circles while humming a single that had been released by Su Fengxi. It could be seen that he was addicted to this tune.

Su Fengxi quietly lifted the curtain, looked at a camera with a smile and silently mouthed, “I have indeed been humming this song in my heart just now, and he really felt it. Your psychic is really powerful!”

She gave a thumbs up, and the bright smile she flashed exuded 200% charm as her image was magnified on the screen. c9lM6

Song Wennuan and the others in the observation room covered their chests in excitement, staring straight ahead at the main screen with expressions full of intoxication. It almost seemed as if they had gotten an overdose of drugs.

Song Rui wrote in his notebook —【This is a monster designed for the big screen. Her charm can be magnified by the camera.】

After Ding Puhang left, a blindfolded Fan Jialuo walked into the room unhurriedly, proceeding forward without any hindrance even without the staff’s guidance. 

He found the soft sofa easily and sat on the opposite side of the curtain, casually crossing one leg over the other and resting his hands on his knee. nNC GU

This was an extremely relaxed but also an unguarded posture. It could be seen that he didn’t think that the things that lay behind the curtain could pose any threat to him.

In contrast to his ease and comfort, Su Fengxi could be seen stroking the hem of her skirt and brushing back her hairs as she pretended to be natural, but with all this, she also straightened her back very deliberately. This aggressive, ready-to-go posture displayed her hostility. 

The time had come, because she had come here for this person. 

When she had learned of Fan Jialuo’s psychic abilities through the show, she had finally understood who had caused her first ever defeat. JNh2ol

Zhao Wenyan going out of control and counter-attacking, the collapse of her public image and the ruin of her acting career— all of these things happened because this man had manipulated the strings from behind the scene.

If she could make him crazily fall in love with her, to the extent that he would kneel at her feet and lick her toes like a dog, then wouldn’t that scene be very interesting?

It was with those thoughts that she came up with the idea of participating as a guest on this show.

She slowly leaned back into the chair as she relaxed her body, and with slightly squinted eyes and opened lips, slowly exhaled a breath. The fragrance of her breath dissipated into the air, spreading her temptation everywhere. GdKMCE

There was no need for eye contact or even words spoken vocally. With just a wisp of her breath, she could easily capture any nearby prey now.

At the same time, Fan Jialuo tilted his head to cover his nose, and spoke in disgust, “Behind this curtain is a dying monster who is spitting out a rotten stench.” 

With this sentence, Su Fengxi’s smug expression turned stiff, and in the depths of her eyes flashed strong panic.
