What It’s Like Being a Vampire

"Have you seen Infernal Affairs?"

Qi Haoguo suddenly asked a question that seemed to be very abrupt in the current scene, but he did not wait for "duck feet" to answer and said directly:

"What's the name of the bad policeman played by Andy Lau in it? Liu Jianren? What he often says is, 'I didn't have a choice before, but now I want to be a good person.' In fact, he has a choice, and Tony Leung gave it to him. The road came out—go tell the judge. But he didn’t want to choose, why? Because he would have to go to jail!”

Qi Haoguo said and laughed again, with a sigh in his tone: "I have never thought about being a good person. I just want to keep what I really care about. I want to live a better life, sleep better at night, and have a better soul." Calm. I just follow my thoughts and do some things, stop what I shouldn’t do, do what I should do, and make up for some mistakes I made. I think that’s it. But all the time, there always seems to be something missing. It's like there is gravel in the shoe, and the diaphragm is there, but I'm not sure where it is. I can't pour it out or take it out. Until today when you came here, I suddenly understood where the gravel in the shoe was... I still Not paying enough for what I did.”

As Qi Haoguo spoke, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and his tone of voice couldn't help but rise. He seemed to be a little uncontrollable in excitement and excitement: "In the past, in order to obtain something more conveniently, I paid something that I thought was unimportant. Now If you want to get those things back, you still have to pay a price. Nothing comes for free, especially peace of soul."

"Duckfoot" stood up, with a somewhat flustered and suspicious expression on his face: "What kind of thing, this thing, is still fucking infernal and a good person? Still has a peaceful soul? You fucking... you are crazy! No wonder you put I shut down all those profitable businesses and came to hide in this remote place. It turns out that my mother is out of her mind!"

"Duckfoot" said, and planned to leave here temporarily, because he suddenly had an intuition that the "Officer Xu" who just talked to Qi Haoguo on the phone might really be a policeman.

But just as he was about to leave the sofa, Qi Haoguo, who had been sitting peacefully, suddenly jumped over.

Originally, "Duck Foot" was always vigilant towards Qi Haoguo, but the other party kept talking so much "nonsense" that his attention naturally dropped. He was just thinking about leaving, but without paying attention, Qi Haoguo had already reached him. in front of.

Qi Haoguo punched diagonally from below with a small movement range, and hit "Duck Foot's" Adam's apple with a short and powerful blow, then pushed him back to the sofa, cut his arms behind his back, and suppressed him.

Qi Haoguo's weight advantage was too great. "Duck Foot" had no room to struggle and was tightly controlled.

Then "Xiao Liu" was called in and helped Qi Haoguo remove the shoelaces of "Duck's Feet" and tied his hands and feet.

"Xiao Liu" looked at "Duck Feet" who was still lying face down on the sofa with some excitement and some worry.

Qi Haoguo said with some excitement and some worry: "Uncle cousin, what should we do next? How to deal with this guy?"

Qi Haoguo said: "The police will come soon. Let the police handle it. By the way, I should also stay in the police station for a while. If the police have any investigation needs, they will come to my home or company. , you should cooperate with me. Regarding the company's business matters and your cousin's side, I have made arrangements before, so you don't need to take care of them. It won't make any difference without me. "

Seeing his uncle sitting back on the sofa and starting to make tea in a comfortable and calm manner, "Xiao Liu" also relaxed inexplicably and sat down next to him, waiting for the police to come.

"Cao Nima's Qi Haoguo! You are so fucking crazy! Your brain is broken! Don't waste your fucking efforts. Do you think you can become a monk just because you are bald? People like you are destined to go to hell when they die. It's no use trying to clear your name! If you have too much fucking money, just share it with me. If you're tired of living, just die on your own. Don't fucking..." The "duck feet" whose hands and feet were bound were straining on the sofa. He struggled, but when he couldn't get away, he finally cursed loudly. From the conversation between Qi Haoguo and "Xiao Liu", he was really sure that this guy called the police.

"Xiao Liu" was furious after hearing this. He went over to press "Duck's feet" and punched him several times in the stomach, which turned him from yelling to screaming.

"Stop, stop, stop, no need." Qi Haoguo put down the hot water kettle that had just been boiled, quickly waved his hand to stop "Xiao Liu", then stood up and sat next to "Duck Feet", smiled and patted his head, and said with some seriousness. :

"No need to struggle. You are still young and still have a chance. After entering, think carefully about what you are really afraid of and what you are pursuing. Don't be fooled by appearances."

Not long after, the local police in Tongshi Town arrived and brought Qi Haoguo and "Duckfoot" back to the station. "Xiaoliu" also went back with them to cooperate with the investigation.

The desperate "Duck Foot" was quite "aware of current affairs". As soon as he arrived at the station, he took the initiative to confess his two companions who were still outside, and cooperated very cooperatively to help the police lure them out, so he became the assassin. When Officer Xu from Tong arrived at Tongshi Town, all the suspects had been arrested.

Qi Haoguo and Lao Xu not only explained in detail the incident that "Duck Foot" threatened him, but also revealed many things in the earlier years.

Listening to Qi Haoguo's calm expression, as if he was chatting in a teahouse, describing his crimes, Officer Xu couldn't help but have the urge to call Chu Xiuwen and ask "Mr. Qi has been stimulated by anything recently." Of course, I was just thinking about it. If I revealed the information to Chu Xiuwen now, it would be a violation of discipline.

…

When Qi Haoguo returned home and walked into the house with "Duck Foot", Alice "reported" the news to Xiang Kun, who was discussing the issue with Lao Xia on the rooftop.

Currently, according to Xiang Kun's arrangements, Alice is mainly monitoring, in addition to some places related to "Shenxing Technology", the entire Chongyun Village, part of Tongshi Town, and some areas related to Xiang Kun. The people involved.

Qi Haoguo himself is a secondary target of attention. He is on the fringe of Alice's "surveillance network", mainly because of his large investment in Tongshi Town and Chongyun Village during this period, and his direct residence in Tongshi Town. Being given a little more attention.

But when she noticed the targeted changes of "Duckfoot" and others, which triggered Alice's early warning mechanism, she immediately allocated resources and focused on "taking care of".

It wasn't until "Duck Foot" blackmailed Qi Haoguo that Alice chose to report it to Xiang Kun and let him handle it.

If the target of blackmail is Liu Caifu, You Meng, or Zicheng, Chang Bin, etc., Alice will regard it as a challenge to her "protection circle" and will immediately pre-process, control risks, and make counterattack plans , notify Xiang Kun earlier.

But relatively speaking, Qi Haoguo's status was not that high, so she didn't notify Xiang Kun until "Duck Foot" actually started blackmailing him - after all, the boss was very busy and couldn't know everything!

On the rooftop, Xiang Kun and Lao Xia, who had just finished talking about "Shenxing Technology", Mr. Liang, John, and dreams, were listening to the recording of "Duck Foot" used to blackmail Qi Haoguo through their laptops, and then continued to listen to Qi Haoguo and "Duck Foot" real-time conversation.

Judging from the recording and the conversation between "Duck Foot" and Qi Haoguo, in his early years in the provincial capital, Qi Haoguo arranged for "Duck Foot" and others to secretly threaten the person in charge of the competitor to withdraw from the competition in order to compete for a bidding project. The method of threat is to deliberately arrange for people from the special service industry to provide services to him, and then rush in to take pictures at the critical moment.

Of course, Xiang Kun could delete the recordings on all the devices through Alice, so that "Duckfoot" and others would not have tools for blackmail, and Qi Haoguo would have no worries, but he didn't want to do this. This would be a bad example to Alice.

Although objectively, Qi Haoguo has promoted the development of Tongshi Town and Chongyun Village, Xiang Kun knows very well that all this stems from the continuous influence of the emotional projection of the "Eight Arms and Eight Eyes Wood Sculpture", which is just for his own sake. It’s just a way to redeem yourself to live a more comfortable life.

If Qi Haoguo directly silenced "Duckfoot" and others in order to avoid being threatened, Xiang Kun might even find a way to report them.

However, based on his cognitive model analysis of Qi Haoguo, it is basically impossible for Qi Haoguo to do this now, and it would be worse than death for him.

When Qi Haoguo sent the recording to Officer Xu and directly asked Officer Xu to send someone to his home, Xiang Kun was not surprised. However, when he heard the words "Have you seen Infernal Affairs?", he couldn't help laughing and said to Xia Li Bing said:

"This guy is even pretending. Let me think about it, if I face Mr. Liang in the future, I will give him a surprise, control his equipment, and introduce 'Alice' to show up. I can first ask, 'Have you seen it? Resident Evil?', hahahahaha."

However, seeing Xia Libing staring at him with wide eyes, Xiang Kun also realized that she didn't get the point of his laughter, so he could only point to the notebook nonchalantly, indicating to continue listening.

After the "Duck Feet" were subdued and the police came to take them away, Xiang Kun stopped paying attention to the matter and just asked Alice to pay attention to the follow-up without any influence or intervention.

Qi Haoguo wants to surrender and say goodbye to his past self. Xiang Kun naturally thinks it is a good thing, but this is his own choice. He is responsible for what he has done. His past choices and current choices are all his. take responsibility. Judging from what he said to "Duck Foot", he has clearly realized this and is able to accept the punishment.

But judging from the charges he mentioned, they shouldn't be very serious. If you voluntarily surrender and cooperate with the police, you might be able to get a suspended sentence or something?

After ending this episode, Xia Libing took advantage of the situation to chat about the lasting impact of "Qingzhuwu" on people. However, after saying a few words, he found that Xiang Kun was in a daze. This was a relatively rare phenomenon, so he stopped. After talking, he observed carefully, and then realized that Xiang Kun seemed to have entered a "super-sensory state."

After a while, Xiang Kun "came back to his senses", looked at Xia Libing who was staring at him in front of him, and said: "Just now when Qi Haoguo heard the threat of 'duck feet' and suddenly laughed heartily, I suddenly felt a little better. ...a very weak and uncertain induction. So I just entered the 'super-sensory state', followed that vague induction, and connected with the 'eight-armed eight-eyed wood carving' to perceive the past. Then I suddenly discovered... the supersensory information represented by the 'eight-armed eight-eyed wood carving' had more than twenty connected channels. I determined that my vague sense came from one of them, and I followed it The passage continued to sense and arrived at a target, what do you think the target is?"

Xia Libing immediately replied: "It's Qi Haoguo."

"Hey~~~, yes! It's Qi Haoguo!" Xiang Kun, who failed to sell the truth, could only continue: "I am very sure that the cognitive information I sensed after following the passage represents Qi Haoguo itself. I can basically pass him Cognitive information to judge part of his current physical state and most of his emotional state. It's like... he has become a 'shrunk version of the love object'."

This is definitely a major discovery for Xiang Kun and his "supersensory object system".

After previously carrying out the influence of a large-scale group emotional projection in Montamila, Xiang Kun had already noticed that people affected by "emotional objects" would have unique "labels" on their own cognitive information. ”, in his “super-sensory state”, he can quickly and accurately discover the cognitive information of a large group of people.

But now, this weakened connection and label has become a substantial strong connection that can be achieved through the "super-sensible state", and the meaning is completely different.

Obviously, this is not a change caused by Qi Haoguo's sudden and complete "awakening" and obeying the influence of the "eight-armed and eight-eyed wood carving's emotional projection". Qi Haoguo's complete "awakening" only allowed Xiang Kun to "discover" this change.

The real reason why these connections could be discovered by him in the "super-sensory state" should be the angry thunder of the little fat girl when she was sleeping this time.

That series of operations gave Xiang Kun a qualitative leap in his understanding of "supersensory information". It should be that from that time on, the "emotional object system" in the "supersensory object system" was reconstructed, or Said it was strengthened.

"Can anyone who has been affected by the 'emotional object' be able to sense it?" Xia Libing asked, "Is it only the people who have been affected by the 'eight-armed eight-eyed wood carving' or other 'emotional objects'? 'Also?"

Xiang Kun shook his head and said: "Definitely not all the people affected have established connections. There are only more than twenty connections in the perception, and those who have been affected by the emotional projection of the 'Eight Arms and Eight Eyes Woodcarving', not to mention other people, are just Meng There are as many as Tamira... I think it should be that the influence reached a certain level, or in other words, the influence must be obeyed and the psychology reaches a certain level before such a stable connection can be established. As for other love objects , I need to verify it again.”

After verification, Xiang Kun found that several of the "Qingzhuwu" wood carvings placed in the "Youlong Hotel" to influence diners' joyful mood and appetite had established a weak connection.

These connections are much weaker than those of Qi Haoguo, but they do not affect Xiang Kun's ability to use this connection to sense consciousness in the "supersensory state" and spy on nearby supersensory information.

And he can basically be sure that the targets of these connections are people who often eat at "Youlong Hotel", including Chu Xiuwen and Qi Haoguo who he is familiar with.

Yes, the link representing the same person not only appears in the cognitive information of the "Eight Arms and Eight Eyes Wood Sculpture", but also appears in the cognitive information of the wood sculpture in "Youlong Hotel".

It seems that in the future, if he wants to come subconsciously in the "super-sensory state", he does not need to put in the "emotional injection object" in advance, as long as there are people who have been deeply affected by the "emotional injection object".

During the verification process, Xiang Kun also discovered that during his emotional perception process, the cognitive information of Little Apple and Little Fat Girl also appeared in the entire perception network, and their "levels" were still On top of most "love objects", it is directly connected to him.
