Interdimensional Energy

If there really was a breach, then all he needed to do was open the breach and go home. How simple and convenient.

Why hadn't he thought of something so simple?

He had been trapped in a cycle, struggling with the idea that he needed to use Dr. Wells's 25th-century scientific knowledge to get home.

It was actually very simple. He just needed to find a breach where he came from, and then go back.

It was like opening a door, just open it and step through.

Everything was that simple.

Lin Li was eager to move, and in an instant, as if he had been injected with adrenaline, he was so excited that he lost all sense of self.

He grabbed Dr. Wells's arm and said excitedly, "Lightning must have struck that black energy sphere, activating some unknown, strange interdimensional energy. Perhaps that black energy sphere was the interdimensional energy. It was activated and created a passage to this world."

"Theoretically, interdimensional energy can leak from one universe to another. When enough interdimensional energy leaks, it might form an interdimensional black hole, leading to another world."

Lin Li's eyes gleamed with excitement. In his fervor, he tightened his grip on Dr. Wells's arm without realizing it.

Dr. Wells felt as if his right arm was caught in a vise, unable to move. He groaned in pain.

"Ah..."

Seeing Dr. Wells's face turn red, Lin Li finally snapped out of his excited state and released Dr. Wells's right hand.

His strength was not something an ordinary person could withstand, let alone when he was so agitated. He had accidentally applied a little too much force.

Just now, he had felt like he was squeezing Dr. Wells's bones. The moment he let go, a deep red handprint was imprinted on Dr. Wells's arm.

Looking at Dr. Wells's cold sweat-covered forehead and his pained expression as he gasped for air, Lin Li felt apologetic and secretly pleased.

However, this wasn't intentional. He was genuinely excited and not thinking straight.

Lin Li said with a sincere apology on his face, "Dr. Wells, I'm sorry, I got a little too excited."

Dr. Wells shivered, his hand trembling as he said, "Lin Li, your priority now is to build a detector to check for the presence of interdimensional energy. As for me, I need to find Caitlin to treat me..."

Seeing Dr. Wells sitting in his wheelchair, sweating profusely, trembling, and looking like he was having a seizure, Lin Li found it particularly amusing.

All this time, whether from television or from his transmigration to this world, Dr. Wells had always given off an impression of being gentle, knowledgeable, and talented, possessing a calm, warm, profound, and kind demeanor. Even when his true nature was revealed, he remained spirited, confident, calm, and arrogant.

To suddenly see the doctor in such a convulsed state was too much of a shock, and Lin Li almost burst out laughing.

Fortunately, Lin Li had good self-control.

He quickly and with feigned 'panic and nervousness' pushed Dr. Wells's wheelchair.

"Dr. Wells, I'm so sorry, very sorry. I'll take you to Caitlin right away."

A while later, Lin Li pushed the "seizing" doctor out of the basement and found Caitlin in the surgical ward.

"My goodness, that was close to a fracture."

Caitlin stared in shock at the red handprint, which had now turned purple and was starting to swell.

"It was an accident, an accident! I'll go get the blood circulation promoter, painkillers, and bruise-reducing medication. Caitlin, you help Dr. Wells with a massage to improve blood flow and apply a cold compress."

Lin Li hurried to the medicine cabinet to get the medicine. He was familiar with the place, having been examined and checked here frequently by Caitlin along with Barry a few days ago.

Caitlin, meanwhile, massaged the area around Dr. Wells's injury to promote circulation and applied a cold compress.

After both of them treated him, Dr. Wells was mostly fine. He just wouldn't be able to exert himself too much for a few days. Due to the medication, his body's pain, and exhaustion, he slowly fell asleep on the hospital bed to rest.

Seeing Dr. Wells's face covered in cold sweat and pain, Caitlin was initially startled, but thankfully, there were no serious injuries.

She pulled Lin Li out into the hallway, so as not to disturb Dr. Wells's rest.

Caitlin glared at Lin Li with wide, fierce eyes, like a small tiger. "Lin Li, how dare you hurt Dr. Wells? I'll kill you!"

She raised the file high above her head, preparing to strike. She had been quite frightened just now. She had never seen Dr. Wells in such a state, such agony, his face covered in sweat, gritting his teeth in pain.

During her most difficult and lowest point in life, she had lost her reputation, her fiancé, everything. At that time, she felt like the sky was gray, life had no meaning, and there was no reason for her to exist. She had even contemplated suicide.

During that darkest period, it was Dr. Wells who stayed by her side, comforted her, guided her, and told her that everything would be alright.

To her, Dr. Wells was not just her boss but someone she deeply respected, a trustworthy, kind, and grateful mentor figure.

Now that someone had hurt Dr. Wells, she naturally wouldn't allow it.

Lin Li said to Caitlin with a helpless and apologetic tone, "No, Caitlin, I didn't hurt Dr. Wells. Why would I hurt Dr. Wells?"

"We were discussing possible ways for me to go home, and I got so excited that I grabbed Dr. Wells's arm, and that's how this happened. I'm very sorry."

Caitlin considered it. Although Lin Li had only been here for a few days, he didn't seem like someone who would harm others. The explanation of losing control of his strength due to excitement also made sense, as he had been searching for a way home all along.

"Really?"

Caitlin asked with suspicion.

"Really."

Lin Li nodded and said sincerely.

Caitlin put the file down, hugged it to her chest, and breathed a sigh of relief.

She continued, "Did you and the Doctor find a way home?" She was also very interested in such surreal sci-fi matters. After all, the humans and creatures of another world were quite fascinating to her.

Lin Li's excitement surged as she brought it up.

"Yes, it's possible. No, I can definitely go home now. There's no reason why not."

Lin Li said with a beaming smile.

"Let's go, we'll find Cisco. I'll explain in detail. We need to build an instrument to detect Interdimensional Energy."

On the hospital bed, Dr. Wells slowly opened his eyes, a cold glint appearing within them.

Lin Li's strength had surprised and caused him immense pain.

In that moment in the basement, he had thought Lin Li had discovered his Reverse-Flash identity and intended to kill him. At such close range, unless he severed an arm and escaped with the Speed Force, there would have been no way to survive.

Wells narrowed his eyes, gritting his teeth against the pain in his arm as he made a firm decision.

Lin Li must leave here as soon as possible.

This variable would be highly uncontrollable.

Especially since the other person was so intelligent; he wasn't sure how long he could keep his Reverse-Flash identity hidden from him.

Too much information had been leaked that night. There were very few people he could suspect, and if an investigation really started, it would be easy to trace it back to Wells.

This made Wells extremely worried.
