Transformers: Leader's Proof - Fragile, but Hard to Kill

Chapter 207 Studying Medicine Can't Save Rosa

Sima Xin's injuries haven't been treated yet, and there are also problems with Steel Lock, so Rosa's matter has been temporarily put aside.

The ambulance driver told Rosa to continue with her own business, and after she left, he quietly called Bumblebee to him a while later.

He had just finished treating the injuries of the gorilla-like Decepticon. Sima Xin still needed some time to recover, but he would lock him up first. He could recover slowly in prison later.

Although he seemed somewhat uneasy and afraid, and even had a shattered worldview, for some reason, during the treatment.

Bumblebee, who had been summoned, was puzzled when he saw that Iron Fist had already taken the Decepticon away. He wondered why the ambulance had called him there.

"How's Steel Lock doing?" the ambulance driver asked as he packed up, noticing Bumblebee nodding at him.

"Blackface has already found the way to transfer the data back to the data bucket. Steel Lock recovered quickly after a brief moment of stiffness and is now fine." Hearing this, the ambulance driver breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good. Just to be on the safe side, I'll do another scan later." He said this, then finished tidying up and put the things aside.

“Now, you can tell me what happened to Rosa, and what exactly happened between you two.” Before the ambulance returned to Earth, it was busy at the Cybertronian High Council, and now that it’s back on Earth, it’s focused on the mission to liberate Cybertron.

What he saw was a capable Rosa, a young girl who would be all lovey-dovey with her boyfriend Bumblebee at the base, a young couple.

But today, after hearing what Steel Lock said, he realized that something was not simple, especially Rosa's brutal and inhumane method of bringing the prisoner back.

He knew Rosa better than anyone what she was like, the nature of their race's devouring nature, and that she was never in a particularly stable mental state. It was because of this that he took the certification exam when he returned to Cybertron.

With his psychologist certification, he is capable of providing psychological counseling to patients in a legal and compliant manner. In the past, he could only treat physical pain, but now he can also try to heal psychological pain.

Judging from what happened today, Rosa's actions at the Decepticon fortress—digging out Decepticon soldiers' parts, stuffing them into their mouths, and then dismembering them—were only partially related to "going out of control."

Assuming that the possibilities Steellock mentioned today are true, Rosa could remain in that state of "torture" indefinitely.

Looking further back, that loss of control might not have been entirely "out of control," but rather a kind of core release, a return to her true nature.

Just how terrifying is she? It's unimaginable.

Especially considering their very nature—they consume both silicon-based and carbon-based food—it's abnormal from any psychological perspective that they can accept or even engage in these two activities.

"This...you heard it from Grimlock, so...?" Before Bumblebee could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the ambulance.

“Bumblebee, we’ve all known her for a long time, lived together at the base for a long time, and been through a lot together. There are some things that you and I both know.” The ambulance driver’s words were full of seriousness, especially his optical glasses.

Although the area under the optical lenses was still bruised, after a period of rest, the lenses gradually regained their former vitality.

The energy of the "Wrench Demon King"... rather than his somewhat lifeless and exhausted state.

"As her boyfriend, you should know better. You also know that there are some causes of illness that we need to understand in order to find a solution..."

Before the ambulance could finish its lecture, Bumblebee waved it off, saying, "Yes, yes, I know, I'll tell you the truth." Bumblebee looked somewhat helpless.

Over the years, he has also been shaped by the new Cybertronian society, a prosperous era he had never seen before. But when he actually saw it, it was not quite the same as he had imagined. He didn't know when it started, but the optical glasses that held endless expectations and fantasies for the future disappeared.

But all of this gradually changed after arriving on Earth, after seeing that Optimus Prime's consciousness was still intact, and after being with Rosa.

"Where should I begin...? Let's start with the loss of control before..." He loved her, so he wanted her to become a better person and tried everything he could to heal her pain.

He wants a good future for everyone, a future where everyone is safe, and a future where everyone is happy.

"Out of control? She's out of control again?!" The ambulance driver realized the seriousness of the situation even more. "How are you?! Is everything alright?!"

Hearing this, Bumblebee sighed softly and shook his head.

"This is serious! He used his ability to transform flesh and blood to kill Zhen Tianzun, ate him, and almost pierced through the Earth." The ambulance's expression changed drastically, clearly terrified.

"However, she also saved Cybertron and Earth at the same time, as well as all the living beings on both planets," Bumblebee said, before being pressed by the ambulance for details about the whole incident.

The survival of Cybertron is important, but so is the reason behind the whole thing.

It was only then that the ambulance driver fully understood why the Angels had resurrected Optimus Prime; indeed, it was a very critical situation...

Moreover, there are also internal issues within Cybertron itself.

Wait, what caused Rosa to lose control?

The ambulance suddenly sat up straight, and Bumblebee nodded as he asked the question.

"There is a Decepticon whose ability is to emit sharp sonic waves. These waves can stimulate the Cybertronians' fear center, forcing his enemies to experience their greatest fears and thus paralyzing them."

After Bumblebee finished speaking, he paused for a moment, and at the same time as the ambulance, he expressed the same guess.

"Post-traumatic stress disorder. /?"*2

After they uttered the term in unison, Bumblebee paused for a moment, then heard the ambulance driver make the same detailed deduction as him.

The fear unearthed painful memories buried by self-protection mechanisms, and these memories happened to be the ones that affected Rosa the most.

The memory suddenly snapped back, covering her eyes and senses, rendering her unable to act independently, thus triggering the underlying logic.

Even later, when she was supposed to continue taking taxis after dawn, she woke up after seeing the sunlight.

All of this may be related to her most terrifying memories.

"Although we don't know the specifics of what happened, at least we know it's PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder), which makes things much easier." The ambulance finally sighed helplessly once again, but then saw Bumblebee looking hesitant.

"Say something quickly."

"Actually, I roughly know about her possible experiences."
