Ian still couldn't believe it... Had Kevin really figured out where his problem was coming from, and was he finally going to be able to use his elements normally?
His hands had become sweaty. He was eager to have the answers to his questions, but he also didn't want to disturb Kevin, so he fell silent to let him stay focused on his task.
Kevin, who was absolutely sure of what he had just discovered, began to touch Ian's spine where there was a good chance that there was a needle planted in it… But he soon felt disconcerted when he found nothing.
He also searched on his cervicals, but again found nothing. Alan, seeing him frown with a thoughtful look on his face, asked him, "What is it?"
Kevin shook his head helplessly and said, showing him where the needles should have been, "There are only these specific places where a needle could have done this kind of damage to Ian's body, but I don't find anything... I don't understand... It should be there."
