"There is a region in the temporal-parietal lobe of the human brain that manages mental and emotional functions. If there's a problem in this area, it might cause strange behaviors or hallucinations."
Lin Jie explained to An Kexin in his arms about the possible cause of the old lady seeing ghosts.
He spoke slowly, "Another possibility is brain atrophy, a condition more common in the elderly."
"In the mid to late stages of brain atrophy, hallucinations may also occur."
"However, brain atrophy is a gradual process. It takes a long time to develop to the mid or late stages."
"If it's caused by brain atrophy, Yuan Xianjun should have noticed something..."
Lin Jie lowered his head, only to find An Kexin lightly biting her lip, her brows slightly furrowed, looking conflicted. He hurriedly asked, "Kexin, what are you thinking about?"
