Chapter 955: Chapter 461: Two-Pronged Approach (Second Update)

Mr. Zeller pointed to the position of the bed and said, "I think there is no problem with the feng shui of this house, but Miss Blythe’s bed position still has some issues."

He drew on his tablet with his finger, connecting the dots, lines forming a pattern, presenting an octagon to everyone.

"The position of her bed is the Wood position, but her auspicious position is the Fire position. Wood generates Fire, which is supposed to enhance her."

Mr. Zeller had said this in Alice Blythe’s bedroom before, and in terms of positioning, there was no mistake.

He added, "But looking at Alice Blythe’s situation, if it really is related to feng shui, then she must be countered."

"What can counter her?"

"Her auspicious position is Fire, bed position is Wood. What can counter Fire is Water, and what can counter Wood is Metal."

"So I deduce that around her bed, there is a lot of Metal and Water."

"As long as the Metal and Water are replaced with Fire and Wood, she can wake up."

Lawrence Winters blinked and instinctively asked, "...Just this?"

Mr. Zeller slightly frowned, "Isn’t this enough?"

"But she has been unconscious for a week now, hasn’t she? The doctors haven’t found any problems, and just by changing the feng shui, she can wake up?" Lawrence always believed the effects of feng shui were not immediate, and hence did not think changing the feng shui would make Alice wake up immediately.

Whenever she worked with Nick Zeller outside to evaluate feng shui or set up geomantic formations, it always took at least a month to see results.

But Mr. Zeller’s face turned dark, thinking she was deliberately making things difficult, and said sternly, "Lawrence, you are also one from the Celestial Path Sect, why do you constantly question the effectiveness of feng shui?"

Isn’t this undermining your own livelihood?

Lawrence quickly said, "I’m not questioning the effectiveness of feng shui, I’m questioning its immediacy."

"Everyone here is from the Celestial Path Sect and understands feng shui well, so you should know, ’First fate, second luck, third feng shui, fourth accumulating virtue, fifth reading books,’ right?"

"Feng shui is ranked third, indicating it’s only auxiliary."

"And Miss Blythe is unconscious—we aim to wake her up. Can just modifying the feng shui layout really be enough?" Lawrence spread her hands and frowned further, "Isn’t it too childish?"

"Then what do you suggest?" Mr. Zeller was somewhat angry, "I asked you just now but you didn’t say anything. Now that I propose a solution, you say it won’t work."

"I’m not saying it won’t work, just that it won’t have immediate effects." Lawrence reiterated.

And she vaguely felt that the real reason behind Alice Blythe’s condition needed to be identified, or else no method would be effective.

She glanced around the room, and this time did not hold back, saying calmly, "I think we should investigate thoroughly the incidents surrounding Miss Blythe’s unconsciousness. I still believe one doesn’t just suddenly become unconscious from nightmares."

As soon as she said this, the five scientific judges in the large auditorium of the Stetford Family nodded in agreement, saying in praise, "This is a very correct line of thought. Having someone with such clarity from the Celestial Path Sect is indeed unusual."

Praising Lawrence was tantamount to discrediting Mr. Zeller.

The five Grant Branch judges immediately darkened their faces.

However, they had just faced embarrassment with Quentin Parker and had innate reverence for scientists, so they merely exchanged glances without rebutting.

In the Blythe Family’s Peony Guest Room, under Lawrence’s insistence, the Blythe couple were invited back again.

"Mr. Blythe, Mrs. Blythe, we are truly sorry, but we would like to ask more specifically, aside from nightmares, what else might have happened leading to Miss Blythe’s unconsciousness?"

"If a person is always having nightmares and having bad sleep, insomnia is possible, but why complete unconsciousness?" Lawrence asked courteously.

Moreover, she recalled seeing Alice Blythe’s expression while she was asleep—it was clearly a blissful dream.

If someone were trapped in a nightmare unconscious, it wouldn’t be that kind of expression.

There must be other reasons that led to Alice Blythe’s unconsciousness.

Mr. and Mrs. Blythe were visibly agitated.

But they held each other’s hands and suppressed their inner agitation, nodding as they said, "Great Heavenly Master Winters asks well, but we also don’t know what besides nightmares might have caused her to be unconscious. If we knew, we would have directly found the root cause and awakened her."

Lawrence was slightly taken aback, "You don’t know either?"

The Blythe couple shook their heads in shame and said, "We were both out on business at that time and hadn’t contacted the family for several days. It was the housecleaner’s discovery of something wrong that informed us." They added, "When the cleaner found her, she was already unconscious."
