What was Shenhua doing while interrogating the thug at hermits nest

This. I don't understand why anyone would have issue with this scene, it was by far one of the most interesting plot developments/teases (and its implied that she does something similar to Ren later)

I agree. The series has always had underlying mystical aspects and I thought that this was subtle enough to fit in with the more mundane side of Shenmue. Actually, it felt like something more significant was happening and that the story would start to get into deeper things that were hinted at in the earlier games.

She made fun of his outfit.
