Oh! I've visited to San Francisco before, aru! It's such a lovely city. [He chuckles to himself.] I remember staying there for the first time with the other early Chinese immigrants back when the railroads were still being built, aru.

I believe that you did help, Cooper. I'm pretty sure Lien-Hua and Li could sense your encouragement. Besides, this isn't the first time I've dealt with spirits, aru. I remember that as a child they would often try to wisk me away somewhere until my nursemaid Lien-Hua gave me a charm to fend them off.

[He shrugs.] Who knows? Perhaps there are researchers for this specific area, aru?
