Chapter 44: The Call of Dreams
Gou Shun changed into new clothes and looked much more energetic than before.
Qian Yan picked up another small bowl, put a few dumplings in it, and then handed it to Gou Shun and said, "Eat it." β
"Aren't you going to eat?" Gou Shun asked.
"I'm not hungry, you eat first."
Gou Shun hesitated, took the small bowl, lowered his head and ate it.
Gou Shun and Qian Yan didn't speak, but Nianxin suddenly raised his head and said, "Sister, my brother wants to go out to save people." β
After hearing this, Qian Yan sighed and said, "Nianxin, sister knows, you eat quickly, you can grow taller when you are full." β
After hearing this, he lowered his head and ate two bites, then raised his head again and said, "Brother, sister seems to have been criticized." β
I saw Gou Shun stop his chopsticks, looked at Qian Yan and said, "What's the matter?" β
There was no answer.
"It seems to be because of you." Nian Xin said.
"Because of my business? What's going on? Gou Shun didn't understand.
I saw Qian Yan sigh again and said, "I applied to test you with the above, if you are not in danger, I hope you can be released." β
"And then?" Gou Shun asked expectantly.
"They say that my business is to study special abilities, test or not, let people go or not, it has nothing to do with me, let me not meddle in things." Qian Yan said helplessly.
After listening to this, Gou Shun's right hand holding chopsticks involuntarily hammered it on the bed, looking a little angry.
This hammer startled the thought of eating.
Seeing this, Qian Yan touched Nianxin's head and said comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, Nianxin, it's okay." β
"Gou Shun, in fact, I can understand them, maintaining social stability is the responsibility of the Iron and Blood Brigade, and if there is any unstable factor, they have the obligation to strangle it in the cradle." Qian Yan looked at Gou Shun and said.
"But I really won't cause trouble." Gou Shun said.
"But when you want to change something, you will definitely encounter a lot of unexpected situations, and I am afraid that you will not be able to do it at that time."
"Then how can I get out?" Gou Shun asked.
"I don't know."
"So did any of the people who entered the research center go out?" Gou Shun asked again.
"There's only one."
"Why was he able to get out?"
"Because she's not in any danger."
"Who is this man?" Gou Shun was a little curious.
"That's me." Qian Yan replied.
Gou Shun was quite surprised by these words, only to see him look at Qian Yan again, and he didn't find anything different, so he asked, "You also have special abilities?" β
"Hmm." Qian Yan nodded.
"But why didn't I see what your special abilities were?"
"I'm ashamed to say that my special abilities are not as powerful as yours, but they are sincere, and I won't lie."
"What? Isn't being able to lie also a special ability? Gou Shun felt a little incredible.
I saw Qian Yan nodding and said: "That's right, ordinary people just choose whether they are willing or unwilling to lie, and I can't tell lies, they once took out a small red ball and asked me, asking me to lie, saying that it was another color, but when I say other colors except red, I will become mute and lose my ability to speak." β
Seeing that Gou Shun was still a little incredulous, Qian Yan said with a smile: "In this society now, there are too many lies, almost everyone can lie, and they have all said panic, and even some people tell more lies for the sake of a lie, and suddenly meet someone who can't lie, isn't it interesting?"
Gou Shun didn't answer, but asked again: "But, aren't you from the research center?" β
Qian Yan nodded and said, "Yes, at the beginning, they also conducted research on my ability, but they didn't study the reason, but in the process of research, they felt that I could quickly gain the trust of others and make people quickly let go of the resistance in their hearts, so they made me a researcher and let me be responsible for communicating with other people here." β
"Oh, I see."
"Of course, otherwise I would be on a college campus at my age."
"But do you like it here?"
"I think it's also very rewarding to be able to help people here. You can also do a little better, and maybe they will also make you a member of the research center to help other people in need. β
After hearing this, Gou Shun shook his head and said, "I can't stay here, and I'm not interested in becoming a person from any research center, I just want to go out now, I just want to save An Ran and Xia Rushi." β
"Gou Shun, I'm afraid I can't help you with this." Qian Yan said helplessly.
"I know, I'll figure it out myself."
At this time, I saw Nianxin on the side speak: "Brother, do you want to escape from here?" β
After listening to Nianxin's words, Qian Yan began to worry again, only to see him look at Gou Shun and say seriously: "Gou Shun, no matter what, you must not do stupid things, the situation here may be much more complicated than you imagined." β
Gou Shun didn't speak, but he knew he had to get out.
After they finished eating, Qian Yan sent her thoughts back to the house, and after cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, she said goodbye to Gou Shun.
Qian Yan walked to the door, turned around again, and said with some anxiety: "Gou Shun, don't be impulsive." β
Gou Shun didn't answer, because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to do it after agreeing to Qian Yan.
Gou Shun was walking on a bustling street when he suddenly saw a red figure flashing by.
He felt that this figure was a little familiar, so he hurriedly followed, and then he recognized the back, it was Xia Rushi, when he was in high school, he sat behind Xia Rushi for a long time, and he was very familiar with that back.
Xia Rushi's pace was very fast, and she seemed to have something important.
Suddenly, they seemed to have arrived in a large shopping mall, and Xia Rushi walked towards a pair of men and women who were shopping in the mall in front of them.
The man's Gou Shun knew that it was Zhao Chengxiang, and a very fashionably dressed girl next to him was holding his arm and snuggling up to him at this time.
Gou Shun followed behind, and he saw Xia Rushi walking in front of the two, pointing to the girl next to Zhao Chengxiang, and asked angrily, "Cheng Xiang, who is she?" β
Zhao Chengxiang's expression was a little surprised, but he quickly calmed down and said with a smile: "She's my girlfriend." β
After hearing this, Xia Rushi's body shook a little, tears instantly rushed out of her eyes, and she said with a wry smile: "She is your girlfriend, what about me?" What am I? β
"You're my ex-girlfriend." Zhao Chengxiang said lightly.
"Ex-girlfriend, when did I become your ex-girlfriend?" Xia Rushi's expression was a little incredulous.
I saw that Zhao Chengxiang still smiled and said: "Of course it starts today, I'm sorry I forgot to inform you, it's my fault, now that you know, then get out of here." β
"Zhao Chengxiang, I gave you everything I had, and you are responsible for me." Xia Rushi's expression began to be a little desperate.
"Xia Rushi, you have a brain disease, what era is it now, and you have to be responsible for it all of a sudden? Are you too stupid or am I too naΓ―ve? Get out of here, don't disturb my mood with my girlfriend shopping. Zhao Chengxiang said, and kissed the face of the woman next to him.
"Zhao Chengxiang, you bastard." Xia Rushi was a little hysterical, and she rushed towards Zhao Chengxiang.
However, Zhao Chengxiang was also unceremoniously, only to see him grab Xia Rushi's shoulders and shake it hard, Xia Rushi sat on the ground.
People in the mall gradually gathered around to see what was going on.
I saw Zhao Chengxiang say with an angry face: "I've never seen such a shameless woman like you, sticking a dead face to a man, do you know what it means to be reserved?" β
Seeing everyone's eyes looking at him, Zhao Chengxiang pointed to Xia Rushi on the ground, and said to the onlookers with a smile: "Everyone look at it, this woman is a rotten person, a piece of goods, and she doesn't know how to be shameless, so she knows that she is fooling around outside, and now it's okay, she can't even give birth to a child, and she wants to come over and harm me, I want to ask everyone, should I be bullied as an honest person?" β
After hearing this, the onlookers invariably cast a disdainful glance at Xia Rushi on the ground.
Seeing this, Zhao Chengxiang bent down, put his face in front of Xia Rushi, and said with a gloating expression: "Woman, I advise you to love yourself." After that, he burst out laughing.
Gou Shun really couldn't stand it anymore, he rushed forward and threw a punch at Zhao Chengxiang.
However, after this punch, Gou Shun hit the air, and he fixed his eyes to see that Zhao Chengxiang was gone, Xia Rushi was gone, the onlookers were gone, and the shopping mall was gone.
He seemed to be back on the street, not far from a ten-story building, and the open space in front of the building was full of people, all of whom were looking up and pointing their hands.
Gou Shun looked along their current and found that there was a person standing on the edge of the roof, who was wearing a bright red dress, although it was a little far away, but Gou Shun still recognized it at a glance, it was Xia Rushi.
Gou Shun quickly rushed to the crowd of onlookers downstairs, and at this time, many people were shouting at the roof.
"Hey, can you jump or not, I still have to pick up my kids from school."
"That's right, if you want to jump, just do it, don't pretend."
"I don't dare to jump at first glance, it's scary."
"Hey, girl, if you have something to say, you are still young, and the road ahead is still long, don't do stupid things." An old woman next to Gou Shun shouted, but her voice was so small that it was almost drowned out by the sound that it was not too big to see the excitement.
Suddenly, Gou Shun found Zhao Chengxiang and the woman in the crowd of onlookers.
Gou Shun ignored them, his eyes were firmly fixed on Xia Rushi on the top of the building.
Suddenly, Xia Rushi seemed to take out her mobile phone, and then, Zhao Chengxiang's mobile phone rang.
Gou Shun saw Zhao Chengxiang connect the phone, and said into the phone: "Piece goods, do you think I was scared?" If you want to jump, jump quickly, don't just thunder and no rain, and waste everyone's time. With that, he hung up the phone.
Gou Shun turned her gaze to Xia Rushi again, at this moment she was already in tears, her face was full of despair, I saw that as soon as her hand was released, the mobile phone in her hand fell from the roof of the building to the ground not far from Gou Shun, and immediately shattered.
Then, Xia Rushi's feet moved forward, and she was about to fall.
Seeing this, Gou Shun rushed into the building.
Gou Shun didn't know where the elevator was, he saw the stairs, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he struggled to climb up the stairs.
Gou Shun didn't dare to stop and breathe, he climbed up the stairs desperately, one floor, two floors......
Gou Shun didn't know how many floors he had climbed, the stairs seemed to have no end, Gou Shun was getting more and more tired, getting more and more tired, but he hadn't reached the top of the building yet, he couldn't stop.
Gradually, Gou Shun felt that he no longer had any strength, and his body began to fall down.
Gou Shun on the bed kicked his leg violently, woke up from the dream, he opened his eyes, he felt very tired, and at the same time there was a kind of despair, despair for Xia Rushi in the dream.
Gou Shun sat up from the bed, trying to calm himself down.
It's been ten days since the Chinese New Year, and as long as I sleep every day, I can dream of Xia Rushi and An Ran encountering misfortune.
This is not the way to go, you can't hope that they will let you out, you have to find your own way.
Yes, I figured it out by myself, and Gou Shun made a decision in my heart.
Gou Shun sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes and thought for more than an hour, when suddenly, he opened his eyes, picked up the convenient intercom on the bedside table, and pressed it.
