Barrier of Light

It was Qushui who entered the house.

The girl rubbed her eyes and asked cautiously: "Doctor Xiao Gu...are you sleeping too?"

The room was very dark, with only one lamp, and Gu Shen was hunched over his desk, making him look like he was napping.

His legs were still a little sore and unruly... Gu Shen tried to stand up, but gave up immediately after trying. He continued to maintain his current posture and said with a smile: "I was sorting out files and lost track of time... Help me turn on the light. Little What about the new lady?"

"She's still resting."

Qu Shui turned on the light, and when the light fell, she could see that her pale skin had some color. She sat on the chair solemnly and praised in a low voice: "This is the best sleep I've had in the past few days... little one." Doctor Gu, I think you are better than Miss Xiaoxin!"

Gu Shen smiled: "It's a psychological effect, don't take it too seriously."

"that……"

The girl lowered her head and fiddled with her fingers, as if she was brewing something. After a few seconds, she mustered up the courage and said, "Dr. Gu... are you free tonight?"

Gu Shen was startled.

"Last time...actually..." Qu Shui's voice became softer and softer as he spoke, and his face became redder and redder.

Gu Shen just remembered.

Last time, Qushui said it was getting late and he didn't dare to walk alone at night.

Sister Xiaoxin said that she lived not far from Lipu Street... She didn't dare to walk alone at night, which was probably just an excuse.

She wants to be alone with herself.

Gu Shen is not a fool. When it comes to this, he has probably guessed what Qu Shui meant.

really.

"I wonder if you... have time tonight?" Qu Shui tangled his fingers, his pretty face flushed, "I want to treat you to dinner as a way to express my gratitude."

"I'm sorry..." Gu Shen thought for a moment and politely declined: "I might be busy."

In fact, I was about to get off work and had no special appointments today.

But there were too many things happening, and Gu Shen wanted to be alone for a while to think about his thoughts.

"It's okay, I can wait for you." Qu Shui raised his face and said seriously: "I can wait as long as you want."

Gu Shen had a headache.

"Speaking of which...where's the weirdly dressed uncle this afternoon?" Qu Shui suddenly asked such a question.

Hearing this question, Gu Shen said silently in his heart.

In fact, this uncle... is right in front of you, but he is invisible to the naked eye.

Qu Shui rubbed the seeds on his little head and said: "I just remembered that I seem to have seen this strange uncle more than once... I just met him once at the river beach before."

"Oh?" Gu Shen's eyes lit up and he became solemn: "Do you still remember when you saw him last time?"

Perhaps this will become an important clue for him to track down the Long-lasting Foundation.

Qu Shui looked like she was trying to remember. After a moment, she looked at Gu Shen's serious eyes and said guiltily: "I can't remember...Is this important to Dr. Gu?"

Gu Shen was a little disappointed. He thought for a while and said, "What about the specific place to meet?"

If you can determine the approximate scope and use "profile" yourself, you may be able to capture some clues.

"Hmm..." Qu Shui tilted his head and smiled slyly: "I may need to recall it carefully. If Dr. Gu walks with me on the river beach... maybe he can remember it."

So he was waiting for me here?

Gu Shen felt a little funny and helpless for a moment.

This girl is scheming, and it's not as simple as she thought.

"Okay, I will accompany you to the river beach...but I have something else to do tonight, so you may have to wait for a while." Gu Shen looked at his watch and said solemnly: "If you mind, postpone it until tomorrow. also."

"Of course I don't mind!"

Upon hearing this response, Qu Shui seemed to be a different person, with a face full of joy and he immediately agreed.

Then her voice became softer again: "I, I, I... I'll go back first and change my clothes... Dr. Gu, I'll wait for you downstairs!"

…

…

When Zhou Yexin woke up, the clock hanging on the wall was ringing the hour.

She sat up, raised her forehead and glanced at her pocket watch, feeling a headache.

"Five o'clock...hell...get off work..."

What happened to her today... She slept until 12 noon, returned to the clinic, and continued to sleep until 5 pm... Even now, she was still feeling sleepy, and she probably could sleep all night again when she got home.

Are you trapped in a ghost?

However, what is incredible is that after sleeping in the afternoon, my whole body feels much more relaxed.

The sleep I had last night was terrible, as if my body was overdrawn.

Zhou Yexin rubbed his temples, his body felt comfortable now, the feeling of overdraft had completely disappeared, but he was just a little tired.

She turned to look next door. The light in the next cubicle was still on.

Gu Shen hasn't left yet.

…

…

When Zhou Yexin opened the door, Gu Shen was listing on a piece of paper the common features between the Lipu Street Insomnia Case and the Qinghe Fire Case. He was trying to find some characteristics of the Long-term Foundation in these two cases... On the paper There is also a big circle in the corner, enclosing the words "Jiangtan Serial Murder Case".

Gu Shen slowly raised a question mark.

After doing this, he raised his head and smiled, saying: "Xiaoxinjie...are you finally awake?"

Gu Shen has been waiting for her to wake up.

Because I had just awakened to the extraordinary, I was not yet proficient in mental hypnosis.

It is more than enough to deal with ordinary people.

But for a special being like Xiao Xinjie who has a "pocket watch", it may not be possible to completely erase the memory. If Zhou Yexin still has memories similar to blazing fire after waking up, according to the rules of the adjudication office, he should inflict it again. A hypnotic session to ensure that she forgets relevant details and does not cause subsequent trouble.

He has probably already thought of how to handle the matter.

If the other party still has relevant memories, he can use Blazing Fire again to turn this day into an ordinary day in Miss Xin's memory.

I just took this opportunity to find out the details of this pocket watch. After all, it is an extraordinary item.

But what happened next was beyond Gu Shen's expectation.

Zhou Yexin sat directly at the seat reserved for guests, and then took out the pocket watch that contained extraordinary aura from his arms.

"Xiao Gu..."

"There are things I really want to say to you. I wonder if you will think I am crazy."

She thought for a long time, and then said slowly: "You know? There are some things in this world... that cannot be explained by science."

Gu Shen could only remain silent.

During the silence, he no longer even pretended to show any expression of surprise or surprise, but just stared at the other person silently, because he believed that after today's conversation, it was necessary to hypnotize Zhou Yexin for the second time, to hypnotize Zhou Yexin for the second time. Memories are erased.

"I'm glad you don't think I'm crazy..."

Zhou Yexin smiled to himself when he saw Gu Shen's reaction of listening carefully. "Perhaps this is why Mr. Tang sent you to help me... You, like him, are both unpredictable."

"When I saw the scene on the second floor today, I suddenly realized that I had imagined you too simply. You have been organizing the experimental reports these days. If anyone else had seen the experiments I did... Everyone should think it is outrageous and ridiculous, but you are too calm, which is not the calmness that a person of your age should have."

"Xiao Gu."

Speaking of this, Zhou Yexin lowered his head.

"I saw...the fire between your brows at noon today."

Her eyes rested on the dial of the pocket watch, where there was a hand that jumped repeatedly, jumping back and forth on one scale.

"Can you tell me...what is that?"

A new year brings a new beginning, so adjust the update time.

There will be two more updates at 12 o'clock tonight.
