[ At least he did run into someone familiar, rather than a complete stranger, which means staying is something of a possibility. Especially since it seems there are others familiar to Lan Wangji present.
It is distinctly odd to see him pull out a small device and talk into it, but as far as things go, it’s not the most unusual. What is unusual is seeing his face, reflected back at him from the screen.
Lan Wangji’s eyes widen, lips parting in surprise. There are some differences, especially since his mirror image doesn’t wear a forehead ribbon, but it’s undeniably his face. ]
It is less an adventure and more a complication.
[ He says it to Sizhui but he doesn’t look away from the phone, studying his mirror self. ]
[It's strange for Lan Zhan to see a mirror of himself. "Sizhui, I
will go through the books here to see what could be done. Please keep him
under your care until we're able to find out how to return him home." He
looks at the man again, clearly not amused by any of this. "I would like a
few moments to speak with him in private. Please hand him the
phone."]
Um.
[Sizhui gives an embarrassed smile before handing the phone to the
man in white, showing him how to hold it so that they would be able to see
each other.]
I'll...see if I can make dinner while you talk.
[After he leaves, Lan Zhan speaks with his doppleganger in quiet
tones.]
[ Lan Wangji takes the phone, staring at his doppelganger, although he remembers his manners enough to look at Sizhui, nodding in appreciation.
He waits until Sizhui is out of the room before turning back to the phone. It's incredibly odd to see his image reflected back like this - just enough differences that he's not looking at a mirror image. ]

It was a cursed mirror that brought me here.
