Chapter 22: Dreams and Reality
Hearing Gou Shun say Buge, Qian Yan immediately turned her head to Lin Yao on the side and said, "Lin Yao, you go and check with the household registration department of Buge City to see if Buge is named An Ran, there are a few of them, and they have sent all their information." ”
"Oh, I'll go in a minute." Lin Yao replied.
"What's going on for a while, I'll go right now." Qian Yan was a little dissatisfied with Lin Yao's nonchalant attitude.
"Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go. I don't know what to rush to. Lin Yao chattered and walked out.
I saw Qian Yan turn her head to Aunt Bai again, and said, "Aunt Bai, after my observation, I found that Gou Shun's dream has two characteristics. ”
"Oh? What are the two features? Aunt Bai asked curiously.
Qian Yan sorted out her thoughts a little and said, "First of all, the first point, Gou Shun's dream seems to be a fragment after a fragment. Between each segment, it may be a few days or a few years. ”
Aunt Bai listened, thought for a moment, and said: "Well, you are right, and have you noticed that every fragment of his dream is extremely important to him, this is a bit like ......"
"Like what?" Qian Yan asked a little impatiently.
"Like our memories, if you try to think back to your past, do you find that you can only remember those important moments? We remember the happiest moments, or the happiest moments, and the irrelevant ones have long been forgotten. Aunt Bai explained.
After hearing this, Qian Yan nodded, and asked suspiciously: "Aunt Bai, what Gou Shun dreamed of wouldn't be some memories, right?" ”
"From the analysis of the form of the dream, it can only be said now that what he dreamed was like a memory, but Gou Shun had not experienced this, how could he dream of it?"
"Could it be someone else's memory?" Qian Yan put forward a new view.
Aunt Bai listened, shook her head, and said: "If this is the case, it is even more unreasonable, when people dream about other people's things, they will often be the existence of a bystander, for example, I dream that you are married, then I should appear as a guest, but in the dream, Junko is the protagonist, which is not logical." Of course, there is the main point. ”
"What?"
"Time, Junko is in a dream, many times there is a definite time, if he dreams of someone else's memory, and this memory happens in the future, but the future has not happened, how can there be a memory?" Aunt Bai analyzed eloquently.
After hearing this, Qian Yan nodded, and asked, "Aunt Bai, what you said makes sense, but how to explain all this?" ”
Aunt Bai thought for a moment, shook her head, and said, "Maybe according to the situation we have so far, we can't explain it yet, by the way, you said that there are two characteristics, what is the other one?" ”
"Gou Shun told me before that his dream can be connected, that is, if he didn't finish the dream on the first day, he will continue to do it on the second day, but according to our observations these times, he didn't continue the dream." An Ran said while thinking.
After hearing this, Aunt Bai turned her gaze to Gou Shun and asked, "Shunzi, is this the case?" ”
I saw Gou Shun think for a while, nodded, and said: "Well, when An Ran and I fell to the bottom before, I did have several dreams before we came out of the bottom, and I didn't lie to you." ”
After listening to Gou Shun's words, Aunt Bai dragged her chin with her right hand, then hugged her left hand on the elbow of her right hand, and after walking around the room a few times, she asked again: "Shunzi, when did you dream of the bottom of the valley?" ”
"It was from the beginning when I had a special ability, at that time I stopped Zhao Chengxiang and held Xia Rushi hostage." Gou Shun replied.
"And how did you wake up?" Aunt Bai asked again.
Gou Shun listened, thought about it, and said: "The first time was when I fell asleep leaning on the door of Xia Rushi's house, as soon as Xia Rushi opened the door, my body fell backwards and woke up. The second time was when I was lying on my desk and dreamed that a tiger was coming at me, I dodged and woke up by hitting the desk. ”
Gou Shun paused, thought for a moment, and then said: "The third time was when I fell asleep hiding in the school's bell tower, and it happened that the school's bell horn was set under the bell tower, and as soon as the bell rang, I was woken up. These three dreams were connected, and then they became unconnected. ”
"So, these three times you were unintentionally woken up, or was your dream suddenly interrupted?"
Gou Shun nodded in agreement.
After hearing this, Aunt Bai turned her gaze to Qian Yan and said, "Yan'er, have you noticed that Gou Shun was hypnotized, and we only woke him up after the picture was basically frozen?" ”
"It seems like that, but what does that mean?" Qian Yan asked puzzled.
Aunt Bai thought for a moment and replied, "This can mean that every time we wake him up, he just finishes a clip, so when we hypnotize him again, he will go directly to the next clip, that is, the next thing." And the dream that Gou Shun was able to continue before may have been interrupted when he didn't finish the dream, so he would pick up on that dream after he fell asleep again. ”
"Aunt Bai, do you mean that only when one fragment is dreamed of will the next fragment be dreamed, could it be that this dream is still mandatory?" Qian Yan said while thinking.
"At present, there is only one explanation, we normal people dream, are a stubble in the east, a stubble in the west, sometimes dreaming of childhood, sometimes dreaming of growing up, but Shunzi is different, have you found that Shunzi's dreams are in strict order, first just went to college and Enron's bottom matter, and then their relationship progressed, then confessed, and finally got married. Each clip progresses sequentially, so it's likely that the next clip won't start until you've dreamed about the previous clip. Aunt Bai continued to analyze.
After hearing this, Qian Yan nodded and said, "Can this inference be verified?" ”
"Yes, but it needs Junko's permission." Aunt Bai said, and turned her gaze to Gou Shun again.
"What do you want?" Gou Shun asked puzzled.
Aunt Bai saw that Gou Shun was a little nervous, and said in a gentle tone: "Shunzi, don't be afraid, I want to wait for your next hypnosis to suddenly wake you up, and then hypnotize you again, to see if our inference is correct, okay?" ”
Gou Shun nodded.
"Okay, then let's get here today, Yan'er, do you want to send Junko back?" Aunt Bai asked with a smile.
"Of course, we're friends, aren't we, Gou Shun?"
"Oh, oh." Gou Shun replied absentmindedly.
Gou Shun followed Qian Yan back to the house, didn't say a word, sat on the bed and was stunned.
"Gou Shun, what's wrong with you?" Qian Yan asked with concern.
"No, it's fine." Gou Shun had a sudden expression of coming back to his senses.
Qian Yan knew that Gou Shun was still reminiscing about that dream, so she jokingly said: "Okay, groom official, don't be in a daze, be happy, think about many people in their thirties who are not married, you are only eighteen years old, and you have been a groom." ”
"Hey, it's a pity it's just a dream, if only I never woke up." Gou Shun suddenly sighed.
Maybe Gou Shun just said this sentence unintentionally, but this sentence made Qian Yan's back feel a chill, she looked at Gou Shun seriously again, and found that his face was now full of the kind of loss and regret that he woke up from a dream.
"Gou Shun, you look me in the eye." Qian Yan looked at Gou Shun's eyes and said.
"What's wrong?" Gou Shun raised his head.
"Gou Shun, you must understand, looking at me now is the real Gou Shun, it is 1666, you are eighteen years old, what is happening in this world is the things you have really experienced, as for those in the dream, they are all illusory, they have not happened yet, it may be a signal to us, but we must not take it seriously, do you understand?" Qian Yan said earnestly.
"Oh." Gou complied, but the expression on his face still did not change.
Seeing that she didn't convince Gou Shun, Qian Yan asked with some concern: "Gou Shun, do you have any doubts?" ”
Gou Shun nodded and said, "Do you think that a thing that suddenly has a special ability and hijacks a classmate and enters the abnormal human research center is like a dream, or is it a thing that is plain and indifferent to love and get married like a dream?" ”
As soon as these words came out, Qian Yan understood that her worries were not unreasonable, so she said: "Gou Shun, I know that what you have encountered recently is very unbelievable, and your dream is extremely real, but it is true if it really happens." ”
Qian Yan said, took out her hand from her pocket, turned on the camera, turned on the selfie mode, and then said to Gou Shun's face: "Look at your current appearance, just an eighteen-year-old child, do you remember yourself in your dreams?" Is it much more mature than this one in your phone, you have to understand that it's just an image in your head. ”
Gou Shun looked at himself on the phone with a slightly empty look in his eyes and did not speak.
Seeing this, Qian Yan put the phone back in her pocket, stretched out her right hand to grab Gou Shun's hand, looked at him and asked, "Can you feel my hand now?" ”
"Hmm."
"What does it feel?"
"Yes, it's a little warm." Gou Shun replied a little shyly.
"Yes, you can feel the temperature of my hand now, it's real, can you feel the temperature of Enron now?"
"I, I can feel it in my dreams." Gou Shun replied.
"Yes, you also said that you can feel it in a dream, so it's just a dream. Gou Shun, do you believe me? Qian Yan asked again.
"Hmm." Gou Shun nodded, I don't know why, from the first time he came into contact with Qian Yan, he was willing to believe this girl.
"If you believe me, you remember that it's reality when you have me, okay?"
"Okay."
"Trust me, I'll be able to help you solve this puzzle." Qian Yan looked at Gou Shun and said with great sincerity and firmness.
"Hmm."
After Qian Yan left, Gou Shun tried to keep himself from thinking about that dream, but the more this happened, the more he couldn't help but think about it.
The dream of marrying An Ran is like an incomparably exquisite and precious plaything, which is constantly played with repeatedly by Gou Shun's mind.
When Qian Yan pushed open the door of Gou Shun's room again, Gou Shun was lying on the bed with his eyes open, his eyes a little hollow.
Suddenly, a burst of sadness surged in Qian Yan's heart, and she began to have some doubts about whether it was right to hypnotize Gou Shun, but even if he didn't hypnotize him, he would sleep, and as long as he slept, he would still dream.
After all, these things are what he must experience, and the only thing he can do is to give him more care.
Qian Yan didn't speak, she didn't know what to say, she quietly walked to the side of the bed and sat down.
"You're here." It was Gou Shun who opened his mouth first.
"Well, are you okay?" Qian Yan asked.
"I'm fine, let's go." Gou Shun said and sat up from the bed.
"Don't worry, this is for you." Qian Yan said, took out a Rubik's Cube from her pocket and handed it to Gou Shun.
"Rubik's Cube? What to do with this? Gou Shun asked puzzled.
"I don't want you to think too much and put too much pressure on yourself, I hope it will allow you to pass some time and distract you at the same time." Qian Yan explained.
"Oh, thank you." Gou Shun took the Rubik's Cube.
"Do you know how to play?"
"I've seen other people play before, but I haven't."
"Then I'm looking forward to the day when you put the six sides together."
"I'm stupid, I'm afraid I'll let you down."
"Who said that, you're not stupid at all."
