Chapter 29: The Strongest Support, Eye of Good and Evil

At this moment, perhaps Hanhan still doesn't fully understand the weight of Li Tianran's promise, but what she now knows for sure is that she doesn't need to continue hiding the truth from him.

So, she completely told Li Tianran about all the situations she encountered during the time he was away from the farm. Li Tianran listened intently and widened his eyes as he heard some incredible things.

"Are you saying... you saw those bad people emitting a red light?" Li Tianran felt a bit dry in his mouth, as he noticed that Hanhan seemed to have undergone some changes recently that he wasn't aware of.

"Yes," Hanhan nodded, "Hanhan doesn't like that kind of light. It makes me feel nervous..."

Li Tianran stroked his chin, his mind racing.

"Besides those people, do others emit light too?" Li Tianran crouched down and asked softly.

He was eager to know the answer to this question.

"Yes!" Hanhan decisively nodded, "Big Brother emits a relaxing blue light, Xiaohei emits a friendly green light! Also, Uncle Nan, who left just now, had a lifeless gray light, much like the color emitted by the older brother when we saw lying on the bed two nights ago!"

Gulp!

As Li Tianran heard this, he couldn't help but swallow nervously.

It seemed that Hanhan wasn't lying!

She seemed to have awakened some kind of "ability"!

Li Tianran suddenly felt a bit ashamed.

In fact, for the past few days, Hanhan occasionally muttered things like "Hanhan is pink, Daguo is blue..." and similar phrases. But Li Tianran always thought she was just too engrossed in watching animated shows, so he didn't inquire further.

Now, it appeared that if he had shown more concern for Hanhan, he would have known about it much earlier!

"Hanhan, besides seeing different lights on people, do you see anything else around them?" Li Tianran asked, following up, "Such as text or some data?"

Hanhan shook her head in response, "No."

Li Tianran stood up and deduced from Hanhan's words that her ability probably emerged after the onset of the apocalypse.

Could it be that the apocalypse not only destroys the world but also bestows magical powers upon some lucky individuals?

Li Tianran opened a search engine, hoping to find if similar occurrences had happened worldwide.

However, after going through numerous posts, most of them were about pre-apocalypse "masters" pretending to be supernatural, with no relevant cases similar to Hanhan's.

After a moment of silence, he closed the search engine.

"There's no explanation, just inexplicable lights... What on earth is this ability?" Li Tianran felt a bit worried. He had a digitalize eyes, but he couldn't display the description of Hanhan's ability.

It seemed... he could only speculate about its effect.

"I'll sort it out..." Li Tianran made up his mind and sat down, gently asking Hanhan about the different people she had encountered recently and the colors of light they emitted.

Hanhan held her little head and slowly recalled.

Half an hour later, a piece of paper in front of Li Tianran was filled with information about the people Hanhan had encountered recently, their relationships with her, and the distribution of light colors on their bodies.

First was himself.

Li Tianran, Hanhan's closest relative, emitted a blue light that supposedly made people feel relaxed.

Next was the time when she saw Xiaotian on the sickbed two days ago. He emitted a dull gray light, which felt very oppressive.

However, in the early morning today, Xiaotian's light turned blood-red, making Hanhan feel uncomfortable.

Then there was Nanshu. When she was at his place before, he emitted a pale green color, like a mild and comforting light. But when he left just now, he turned into a lifeless gray.

As for the people she saw in front of the South City Department Store, they all emitted a dead gray light.

Li Tianran fell into silence for a moment and wrote on the paper, "Changes in light might represent the existence of malice towards Hanhan."

Li Tianran thought it over, and his explanation was the most reasonable one.

Formerly, Xiaotian didn't know that Li Tianran had medicine, so he didn't care if he had ill intentions towards Hanhan, and thus emitted a dead gray light.

To put it simply, it was like the hatred value in a game. When it was at 0, the light emitted would be dead gray. This was also confirmed by the large number of dead gray people in front of the department store.

On this morning, Xiaotian wanted to deceive Li Tianran, kill him, and then kidnap Hanhan to steal the medicine. He harbored ill intentions, so his hatred value increased, and his light turned blood-red. This was the same with the second group of people sent by Chen Nan.

As for Li Tianran's blue light, it no longer represented hatred value.

Instead, it was something akin to intimacy!

A relaxing blue light.

Only in front of the person one is closest to will they feel the most relaxed.

Though Nan Tian was also very important to Hanhan, his role was different from Li Tianran's. If Li Tianran played the role of a caring father or older brother, then Nan Tian's role was that of a trustworthy friend and playmate.

Hence, the color of light on Nan Tian represented someone that made you irresistibly close, which was green.

As for the faint light green emitted by Uncle Nan earlier, it was because Li Tianran provided him with food, so he held good intentions and gratitude toward Li Tianran and Hanhan.

However, after Nan Tian's death, Uncle Nan heart turned lifeless gray.

He didn't hate Li Tianran and Hanhan, but he couldn't feel grateful toward them anymore, so he turned into a dead gray...

"Yes, it must be like this!" Li Tianran combined the events that had occurred during this time and finally confirmed that his speculation was correct.

The light Hanhan saw represented whether the person had ill intentions toward her!

"This is like a human reconnaissance device!" Li Tianran couldn't help but laugh. "This is amazing."

In the apocalypse, what's the scariest thing?

It's not the disaster itself, but human nature!

He could use items from the mall to achieve everything, but he couldn't see through people's hearts. However, now Hanhan possessed such an ability!

This completely made up for his only shortcoming and made everything perfect.

"Of all the reconnaissance devices I've seen, I'll call you the strongest," Li Tianran patted Hanhan's little head. "With this ability, I acknowledge you!"

Hanhan blinked her big eyes. She didn't quite understand the Naruto reference, as she had been engrossed in "Wang Wang Achievement Team." But hearing Li Tianran's words, she became excited. "Can Hanhan help now?"

"Of course!" Li Tianran said softly, "If you see someone emitting a red light, make sure to tell your big brother!"

"Okay!" Hanhan nodded earnestly, "Red is bad and makes me nervous. I'll tell Big brother, and he'll drive them away!"

Li Tianran crouched down, considering something. "My digitalized ability is called 'True Eye,' and your ability... let's call it the 'Eye Of Good And Evil.'" Li Tianran placed his hand on Hanhan's head and smiled indulgently. "From now on, you are my strongest assistant!"
