Odd Containment Specialist

Of course, Xia Shou would not completely accept Glendower's content, and other documents and materials were needed for mutual verification.

Su Weiyu, who was standing by, put the last piece of pizza into her mouth and let out a sigh of satisfaction.

"I want to eat skewers tomorrow."

"Well, I'll bring you barbecue tomorrow. Is there anything else you need?"

Xia Shou felt like a family member visiting a prisoner in a labor camp.

"Or bring it to me... Forget it."

Su Weiyu originally wanted Xia Shou to bring her a game console and a large-capacity power supply, but finally gave up the idea.

Playing games does not lead to a reduction in the total amount of work. Staying one more day means going back one day later. She still wants to finish the work quickly and return to the modern world.

Xia Shou saw that Su Weiyu was bored, so he told her everything he had encountered in the past few days.

He originally wanted to mention Li Mingzheng, but thinking that it might distract Su Weiyu if it involved Su Yue, he did not mention it.

After chatting for half an hour, Xia Shou and Su Weiyu said goodbye and left the club.

After returning to the Root Sea, he did not leave the Root Sea immediately.

In the past, when he left the Root Sea, he basically woke up without dreaming, but he started to have lucid dreams a while ago, which made Xia Shou feel very complicated.

Forget it, he has to leave it eventually.

…

In the early morning, Xia Shou woke up from a sticky dream.

Sitting up from the soaked sheets, he felt dry mouth and extremely dehydrated.

Xia Shou raised his hand and stroked his wet hair. The amount of sweat he had produced that night was like running a marathon in bed.

His hamstrings and quadriceps were sore, and his brain had not yet completely switched from dreams to reality.

"I have to see a doctor." Xia Shou said to himself.

No matter how optimistic he was, he would not think this was a normal state.

Although he didn't want to admit it, if he was asked to evaluate the content of the dream from an objective and rational perspective, then combined with reality, there was no doubt that his psychology was becoming abnormal.

Xia Shou had heard of a theory that there was a kind of dream that was the brain's subconscious compensation for unattainable wishes.

Those who dream of jumping off a building have a tendency to self-destruct in reality, but rationality and the instinct of survival suppress this impulse in reality and prevent themselves from releasing this desire for self-destruction.

In order to relieve this huge repression, the brain releases this impulse and anxiety by committing suicide in a dream.

There is an old saying in China that dreams and reality are opposites. Many times, people dream of experiences that are completely opposite to reality in their dreams. People who have not studied well may continue to study hard in their dreams.

A middle-aged man who worked hard when he was young and got sick in his old age will dream that his young self is not addicted to work, but exercises and stays with his family, gaining ordinary happiness.

In dreams, regrets will be made up, and the choice that the person wants to make but has not made will be beautified to the extreme.

Want to kill but dare not kill, want to be killed but afraid of being killed, want to resign but dare not resign.

Dreams can bypass the negative effects of a choice and simply let you enjoy the emotional enjoyment you want to experience in dangerous behavior.

If analyzed from this perspective, then his dream is...

Xia Shou felt that he should be contaminated by some abnormality.

"... Am I a pervert?" Xia Shou muttered to himself.

"Master Xia Shou, why do you say that?"

Alice behind him suddenly spoke, scaring Xia Shou to scream.

He said incoherently: "I, I, I... What did I say? I didn't say anything! Alice, why did you suddenly wake up?!"

"I think... At Master Xia Shou's age, it is normal to have such a dream."

"You don't understand what you are saying, ha... haha." Xia Shou's mouth twitched and he laughed stiffly.

For Xia Shou, this situation is no different from social death.

"Master Xia Shou, it's almost time to go to work, please take a shower, I'll wash your pants for you." Alice said gently, without any teasing in her words.

"... Alice, I think I have some psychological problems, I plan to see a psychologist when I have time." Xia Shou tried to explain.

Although he also knew that this explanation was very weak.

Xia Shou waited for Alice to say something, but Alice did not answer and remained silent for a long time.

Xia Shou knew that Alice wanted to retain his remaining dignity, but it was precisely this gentleness that was considerate to the smallest details that completely lost his dignity.

Then, Alice suddenly apologized: "I'm sorry, Lord Xia Shou, I shouldn't have woken up at that time."

"..."

Xia Shou got up silently, took a shower, brushed his teeth, and changed his clothes.

Then he picked up his phone and checked today's schedule to see if there were any extra temporary work.

In addition to cooperating with the daily research on Scorpion Ridge, he was assigned a temporary task in the morning.

The three first-level finishers failed to solve this task, so they assigned it to him to test whether he had the ability of a second-level finisher.

In addition, Shangguan Yan also sent a message asking him and Baihe to bring Ke Hen to investigate the latest murder case.

Xia Shou took a deep breath, looked at his lifeless self in the mirror, and slapped his cheek hard.

Focus on work.

If you are extremely tired, your brain should not be wandering.

…

…

In the morning, Xia Shou went alone to complete the task that the three first-level finishers could not complete.

The process went very smoothly. After Xia Shou asked for the general details of the weirdness, he used the [Mirror Magician's Intelligence Scissors] to cut the opponent directly.

He was lucky. The place where he cut was exactly the fatal position of the monster.

He ended the battle in one minute, which earned him the shocked and admiring eyes of those first-level finishers.

He never thought that one day, he would become an experienced finisher in the eyes of others.

This feeling was not unpleasant. After all, it was quite easy for him to deal with the weirdness that was extremely dangerous to ordinary people. When he went in to finish it just now, he felt like catching a dog or a cat.

When he returned to the control bureau, Ke Hen was the only one in the office. The two went to the cafeteria to eat, and then finished the morning task report during the lunch break.

In the afternoon, Bai He came back.

"I am the person in charge of this operation. Everything is under my command." Bai He looked at Xia Shou and Ke Hen with an extremely serious expression.

"Understood." Xia Shou vaguely felt that this mission might be unusual.

"Promise to obey the command." Ke Hen said lightly.

Bai He nodded: "Then let's go."

The murder was discovered in an abandoned factory. When Xia Shou and his team arrived, the entire factory was surrounded by yellow cordons.

The three of them went through the cordon and walked into the scene. Wang Long and a group of forensic doctors were examining the body.

The deceased was a woman, naked, with beautiful flower and bird patterns painted on her torso with oil paint, like a piece of clothing, and obvious scratches on her wrists and ankles.

"Doctor Wang, did you find anything?" Bai He asked.

"We were waiting for you, and we didn't dare to check in depth for fear of destroying the scene, but based on experience, we can judge that she has been violently violated for a long time." Wang Long pushed his glasses and sighed, "The deceased's personal information also matches the missing list of the Public Security Bureau, saying that she disappeared three weeks ago."

"Three weeks... That means he was here three weeks ago." Bai He muttered to himself.

Xia Shou frowned slightly. He felt that Bai He seemed to have an idea of ​​the murderer's identity.

Ke Hen: "Senior Bai He, can I start the scene replay?"

Bai He nodded: "Let's start the replay, everyone please move aside."

Everyone stepped back, away from the body, to create the best environment for Ke Hen to use his supernatural power.

Ke Hen's supernatural power [Bystander], the effect announced to the public, can replay what happened at the scene within 24 hours, but in fact its effect is even more powerful.

But even if it is just a hidden version of the effect, it is an irreplaceable artifact for solving cases in murder investigations.

Basically, as long as the body is found within 24 hours, Ke Hen's supernatural power can directly lock the murderer.

"Has it started?" Bai He found that there was no movement at the scene.

Ke Hen nodded: "It's already replaying."

A few minutes passed.

Ke Hen frowned slightly: "It's finished."

"How is it possible! The deceased has been dead for less than 8 hours!" Wang Long exclaimed.

Ke Hen's supernatural power can replay the scene for 24 hours, and the deceased should still be alive 8 hours ago, how could he lie there motionless!
