Wei Wuxian is more mature than 95% of the people on this earth, and braver than any public school student. Brain Power: 99%. Maturity Power: 1000%.
There are several ways to interpret this scene, the main ones being: 1) WWX observes WN’s insecurity very quickly and instinctively reassures him because they are both Very Good Boys, or 2) WWX sees WN and decides to approach him for some information gathering, observes WN’s insecurity very quickly, and uses that as an in to create Bonding. This second theory would also explain why WWX is willing to threaten WN later on at Lotus Pier, as he doesn’t completely trust him yet and hasn’t fully established the bond they have later. I am personally a fan of a little bit of both theories at the same time.
Now back to our regularly scheduled memery. Brain Power: The average of 25% (theory 1) and 65% (theory 2) = 45%.
In a split second, Wei Wuxian has Observed the Situation, Formulated a Plan, and is ready to Jump Into Action. The fact that he is able to move fast enough to stop that arrow in the first place is astounding. How fast must his brain be moving? Brain Power: 90%. Physical Power: 85%.
(Forgive me for including both pictures, his face is Too Cute.) Wei Wuxian has begun the Investigation. He is Not Afraid to let Wen Qing know he is Investigating. Brain Power: 57%.

(This sequence is difficult to show through pictures: As Babies examine everyone for Crazy Left Hand symptoms, Wei Wuxian keeps his back to Madame Mo. However, when her hand begins twitching, we see his focus shift to his peripheral. His expression changes, which is when we know he has confirmation that the Left Hand got her. He is then prepared to push His Baby out of the way, and then give a (slightly fake sounding) yell only afterwards, making it clear that he Definitely Did Not See Madame Mo before pushing His Baby.)
