Dream Guide

Aoki thought for a long time before deciding to find Yu Jianguo first.

When he went to the criminal investigation team to ask about Zhao Pengcheng and Yu Jianguo, Shi Dazhuang couldn't help but feel strange. While asking Hu Xing to get the files, he asked: "The cases of these two people have been settled long ago. Why are you asking them?"

Aoki asked: "How many years was the final sentence?"

Shi Dazhuang said: "It seems that Yu Jianguo was seventeen years old, and Zhao Pengcheng was more serious. He was sentenced to a suspended death because he was suspected of intentional homicide."

Hu Xing found the file and showed it to Qingmu.

"Isn't Yu Jianguo the mastermind? Why was he only sentenced to seventeen years?" Aoki asked while reading the file.

Shi Dazhuang said: "Yu Jianguo is mainly related to several criminal gangs, but he is not a main member of the gang. The reason why he and Zhao Pengcheng committed crimes together was to avenge Zhao's sister. The murderer was Zhao Pengcheng, and Yu Jianguo was only an accessory. . And he later performed meritorious services and helped us arrest several organ trafficking gangs and human traffickers."

Aoki found the part about the vegetative person in the file, read it for a long time and asked, "Did Zhao Pengcheng explain the reason why this vegetative person's brain was taken away later?"

Hu Xing replied: "I remember this very clearly, because during your hypnosis interrogation, you asked this question and was interrupted by my phone call. Later, when Zhao Pengcheng was interrogated, I specifically asked this question. According to his explanation, it was for Practice surgical skills, because he is a general surgeon and does not have the opportunity to perform brain surgery. And the organs of the vegetative man have been removed, so he simply practiced brain removal surgery."

"Isn't this too forced?"

"We also feel that this motive is not valid. During the commission of the crime, the person must be in a state of high tension. How could he still have the time and energy to practice brain removal surgery at the risk of being discovered if the operation fails?" Hu Xing said.

"Then why did you accept this statement again?"

"Because we can't find the motive for his lying, this statement will not only not reduce his sentence, but may also make the trial judge think that he has lost his humanity, thus increasing the sentence." Shi Dazhuang said, "You helped us open the door for Zhao Pengcheng to After Yu Jianguo confessed, Zhao's psychological defenses were opened, and he confessed all the crimes, including two other cases that we didn't know about. From common sense, he has no reason to lie about this detail anymore. And regardless of whether he lied Don’t lie, this confession has no impact on our criminal investigation work, we just recorded it truthfully for the prosecution and judge’s reference.”

Aoki nodded, almost understanding. He originally suspected that Yu Jianguo was an alien because the last time he hypnotized Zhao Pengcheng, he didn't find anything abnormal about the consciousness itself. Now it seems that Zhao Pengcheng is more likely.

It has been impossible to verify whether the vegetative man's brain was infected with the gray brain virus, but judging from Zhao Pengcheng's method of committing the crime and his confession afterwards, it is basically certain that it was him.

"Is the identity information of the dead vegetative person still there?" Aoki asked.

Hu Xing helped him turn the case file to the back, pointed to one of the pages and said, "Here, it's right here. The deceased is a returned overseas Chinese who has many properties at home and abroad. Except for his daughter who is in the United States, his family members are all with him. Live in Wuzhong.”

Aoki looked at this person's introduction carefully, wrote down his name, and asked Hu Xing: "Your family has dealings with these wealthy businessmen. Have you known this person before?"

Hu Xing shook her head and said, "I don't know many business people. If you want to ask this, you have to ask my two uncles."

Aoki carefully recalled the process of going to the criminal investigation detachment to interrogate Zhao Pengcheng. In his memory, there was nothing special about Zhao Pengcheng's consciousness that was different from humans. Of course, at that time, there was no such thing as parasitic consciousness, and he had not encountered a "shadow", so naturally he would not think about it.

Although the parasitic consciousness can completely inherit a person's memory after successful parasitism, they will never simply become the parasitized earthling, otherwise there will be no invasion. They must have their own special contact and communication methods. Even if this is out of conscious instinct and is not in the brain's memory and cannot be reflected in the content of the dream space, it will definitely be reflected in the ontology of consciousness.

Aoki believed that he could always find clues, but in order to prevent accidents, he decided to meet Yu Jianguo first. Yu Jianguo is also suspected. If he is also an alien, it would be better to find a breakthrough from him first. If he is not, then at least we can get some information related to Zhao Pengcheng from him.

Yu Jianguo is in his fifties, which is not considered old in today's society, but his hair is already gray and he looks like a man in his sixties.

He sat down at the family dinner table and looked at the strange young man in front of him across the table.

The dishes on the table were steaming hot, and the aroma of fish-flavored shredded pork and pepper-fried pork kept filling my nose. Yu Jianguo's Adam's apple moved up and down, and saliva filled the entire mouth from the tip of his tongue to the gap between his teeth.

The food in the prison is much better than in the past. Yu Jianguo remembers that when he was in prison more than ten years ago, almost every meal consisted of pickles and steamed buns, and he would starve if he couldn't do the job well. Now at least I can eat enough, and I can still see the smell of meat at noon. But it is impossible to serve a whole plate of fried pork, let alone such a table of dishes.

What Yu Jianguo couldn't stand the most was not these dishes, but the bottle of Erguotou that had already been opened. Drinking is not allowed in prison, and he is an alcoholic. When I was working in the hospital, I often went to the morgue, and sometimes just drank a few sips of wine to strengthen my courage.

"Are you...?" Yu Jianguo asked after swallowing a few mouthfuls of saliva.

"My name is Aoki." Aoki said

"I don't know you." Yu Jianguo said cautiously.

"We know each other now." Qingmu poured a glass of Erguotou for Yu Jianguo and himself, then took a sip from the glass.

There were four dishes and one soup on the table, a plate of fish-flavored shredded pork, a plate of fried pork with pepper, a plate of braised fish, a plate of pickled mushroom slices, and a tomato and egg drop soup. This order of food wouldn't cost more than a hundred yuan outside, but it's more than doubled here. But the most expensive thing is this bottle of Red Star Erguotou. This is because the relationship between the above is cleared and an exception is allowed.

Qingmu knew that Yu Jianguo liked to drink, so he said: "Let's drink first and eat the food. We can talk about some things after we are full. Don't worry, there is no time limit for today's visit. You can just drink. It doesn't matter if you get drunk."

Yu Jianguo shook his head and said, "If you don't say anything, I won't be able to eat well."

Seeing that he really didn't want to eat, Aoki smiled and said, "Actually, it's nothing, I just want to talk to you about Zhao Pengcheng."

When Yu Jianguo heard this, he suddenly covered his face with his hands and started crying, sobbing: "It was all me who hurt him. He is a good boy! He is the only promising child in our village!"
