"Nothing. I'm just curious about how far you're nearsighted." Chi Jiao smiled casually.
Zou Xingxing pushed her glasses up the bridge of her nose and answered seriously, "800 degrees."
"Medical science is very advanced now. You can consider undergoing surgery to correct your vision," Yi Lanlan suggested enthusiastically.
However, Zou Xingxing shook her head frantically. "No! I can't undergo surgery! "
Her tone was very firm. After she said that, Yi Lanlan, Dang Nan, and Chi Jiao looked at her without saying a word.
The scene became very awkward.
Perhaps realizing that her reaction was too intense, Zou Xingxing's expression turned ugly. She stood up abruptly and said, "I'm going to the washroom."
After saying that, she turned around and quickly left.
"What's wrong with this person?" Yi Lanlan was a little confused. "I was only giving her a suggestion just now. I didn't force her to undergo surgery. Why was she so agitated? She made it seem like I wanted to harm her. "
"Maybe it's because she's afraid of undergoing surgery," Dang Nan said softly.
Yi Lanlan shrugged with a dumbfounded expression.
Chi Jiao picked up the fruit juice and took a sip with a straw. She lowered her eyes to hide the cold glint that flashed across them.
When she said that she didn't want the surgery, Zou Xingxing's expression was clearly very frightened. It was obvious that Yi Lanlan's words had evoked a very unpleasant memory.
She remembered that the ZF Organization in Country Hua was specially set up to target Espers. Actually, it was not only in Country Hua but also in various countries around the world.
Without the management and control of the ZF Organization, if some talented Espers wanted to mess around, it would be very easy for them to cause serious public security incidents.
After all, ordinary humans were indeed weak and vulnerable in front of paranormals who had mastered supernatural abilities.
In Country Hua, where human rights were paramount, Espers were also legitimate citizens and enjoyed the human rights of ordinary people. However, at the same time, the ZF Organization had also come up with special rules to restrict Espers.
For example, Espers could not expose their special abilities in front of ordinary people, nor could they use their special abilities to hurt others or do other things that violated the law. If they violated the rules, they would be punished accordingly.
However, it wasn't easy to be an Esper. Under the influence of the meteorite's magnetic field, an Esper's mental state was easily contaminated, and they would suffer from various mental illnesses. This was called the negative effect of Espers by the scholars who studied Espers.
For example, Jin Yiming was an example. Apart from his childhood misfortune, his antisocial personality disorder was partly due to the negative effects of his special ability.
An esper with an abnormal mental state like Jin Yiming would be sent to the ZF Agency's designated psychiatric hospital for treatment, including surgery. It was said that this surgery process was very cruel and required the esper to undergo the so-called magnetic field radiation treatment when they were awake. It was a fate worse than death.
After Chi Jiao realized that she was an Esper, she spent a lot of effort to investigate information about Espers. That was why she knew so much.
Usually, the existence of paranormals was a secret in China and even in other countries around the world. Ordinary people would never come into contact with such things.
If Zou Xingxing was really a psychic, then it was very likely that she had undergone that kind of surgery before, which was why she was so afraid of it.
"Jiaojiao …" Just as Chi Jiao was deep in thought, Xu Ye's voice suddenly sounded beside her.
