"Hello, I'm Jiang Dong, the captain of the criminal police brigade in the western district of this city, I suspect that the cartoons you drew are closely related to the two recent suicides of female college students in our city, I hope you can actively cooperate with our investigation." It was already the next morning when I received the phone again, and as soon as the phone rang, Jiang Dong reported to his home first.

"Yes, I know...... We were on the phone last night, and what work did you say? When Li Yifan heard that it was yesterday's criminal policeman again, he remembered yesterday's conversation, and he was still a little nervous. But it should be normal for comics to be the same as cases, and many of the cartoons he drew before were some cases recommended by netizens for him to draw. Li Yifan has been afraid of the police since he was a child, and when he knew that Jiang Dong was a criminal policeman, he was even more afraid.

"It's the two comics you updated yesterday morning and this morning, and the scenes described in your comics are exactly the same as what we found at the crime scene, especially the case of a female graduate student who committed suicide in her apartment this morning, which is highly similar to the comics you updated this morning. Because you are Zhang Rui's classmate, he also confirmed that you were in your dormitory from 1 to 3 o'clock in the morning the day before yesterday, I will tell you these words directly, you are now involved in two murders, and the police will interrogate you immediately. Jiang Dong roughly finished talking about the seriousness of the situation.

Li Yifan hung up the phone tremblingly, and he was stunned for a long time before he understood Jiang Dong's words. This happened once nine years ago, when he dreamed about the death of his best friend, and finally the police did not arrest the criminal of his dream on the grounds of insufficient evidence.

At that time, Li Yifan was only in his early elevens, and after receiving long-term psychological treatment, he selectively forgot that memory, and now those fragments have resurfaced. He sat on the bed trembling and huddled in fear.

"Yifan, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Rui was woken up by Li Yifan's phone, looked at his watch and saw that it was only 8:40, he got up and saw Li Yifan like this, so he asked him worriedly.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just that your cousin said that there is a case that is very similar to the cartoon I drew......" Now Li Yifan's mind is a little confused, and he doesn't know how to answer Zhang Rui.

"No wonder my cousin texted me again last night asking where you have been. It's okay! So many of us are helping you testify, what are you afraid of, the cases in your comics were originally the cases that some netizens said, and some of them look like very normal, and your supernatural comics have a big brain, and the police won't arrest people because someone drew a portrait. Zhang Rui comforted Li Yifan, he has known him for three years, and Li Yifan has always been a particularly sensitive and cranky boy. Of course, Li Yifan's character can be patted on his chest to ensure that every time he asks him to help with a homework or do something, he is always obligated and never complains.

"Hmm......" Li Yifan sat on the bed and thought blankly, how to explain to them when someone came to the police station, this was just his delusion, would they believe it? Or insist that it's just a coincidence. Li Yifan's paranoia is only known to Bai Ran and his parents, he doesn't want more people to know, and he doesn't want everyone to treat him as a madman and a psychopath.

A picture suddenly appeared in Li Yifan's mind, a boy walking with his head bowed in front, the word 'crazy' written on his white school uniform with a pen, and a few footprints next to him, his schoolbag was full of dirt, and there were several boys behind him laughing at him while spitting on him and throwing stones at him...... Li Yifan curled up in the corner next to the bed even more frightened.

Zhang Rui climbed out of bed and stood beside Li Yifan's bed, not knowing how to comfort him, so he could only pick up his cup and help him pour some water. Suddenly, as if he remembered something, Li Yifan sent a distress message to Bai Ran's WeChat.

Zhang Rui handed the water cup to Li Yifan and looked at him a little worriedly, Li Yifan smiled and said, "It's okay, it's much better." Zhang Rui was still a little worried about Li Yifan, and when he saw that Li Yifan's phone rang, it was Bai Ran calling, so he went back to his place.

Although he felt strange about Li Yifan's overly nervous and panicked attitude, when he thought that Li Yifan had always been suspicious, he didn't think about it deeply, and it was not the first time he had seen Li Yifan like this. Li Yifan also said that he himself is a little paranoid, and he is always used to thinking about things in the worst way.

Li Yifan climbed out of bed and walked out of the dormitory, finding a quiet place to answer the phone.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Bai Ran asked lazily on the phone.

"Do you remember what it was in my medical record from a few years ago? Did I ever say that my delusions had become true? Li Yifan walked to the balcony and asked Bai Ran in a low voice.

"Well, that's what my teacher's medical record says." Bai Ran recalled, it seemed that there was such a thing. "The result of the analysis is that I have been exposed to similar things during the day, leaving images in my dreams, and my subconscious mind has influenced my dreams and delusions." Bai Ran translated the terms on the medical record in the vernacular.

"It seems that my delusion this time has also happened in reality!" Li Yifan couldn't control his emotions a little. "But I haven't been in contact with people in my delusions. Yesterday a police officer came to me and said that the cartoon I drew was exactly the same as the recent case! Today he called again and said that my morning cartoon was the same as the crime scene! “

"Isn't your comic always based on stories given by others, even if it's the same, it doesn't matter to you." Bai Ran couldn't understand what Li Yifan had to be nervous about.

"Do you remember the drowning incident I saw when I came to you and told you about it? Then I saw a girl with her wrists cut. I drew what I saw into a caricature, and it was the same as the real cases that happened in reality. But there are no suicides or disappearances around me. I don't know when I've ever seen something like this, or someone like this, and my delusions about me have not been imprinted at all in reality. Li Yifan was a little excited and began to speak incoherently.

"It's okay, don't worry, the police just said they were suspicious, and they didn't say that it was exactly the same as what you thought, it would be good after they investigated clearly, you were just delusional, if it didn't work, I could give you a certificate." Bai Ran first calmed Li Yifan's excited emotions and asked him to calm down first.

"The police are about to interrogate me, what should I do, I don't want to be questioned again, I don't want to be treated as a madman anymore......" Li Yifan was already a little unable to control his emotions, and he began to say with a choked voice, choked with a little despair.

"Don't worry, I know a lot of police officers in the city, and many prisoners are on our side for psychological evaluation." Bai Ran hadn't seen Li Yifan so fragile for a long time, she felt sorry for him, and remembered that when she saw him for the first time, Li Yifan was still a helpless and fragile little boy, and she would always stand in front of Li Yifan to protect him when she was a child. Bai Ran's resolute switch from clinical medicine to psychology in college is largely due to Li Yifan. Now Bai Ran unconsciously protects him. "I will definitely find a way to prove it for you, and now there is no evidence of you being present, what are you afraid of!" There is a kind of trust that is unconditional, and Bai Ran's trust in Li Yifan is like this.

"Well...... Sister Bai Ran, don't worry, I will be fine. Li Yifan tried hard to adjust his emotions and mood, and the worst result was not to tell everyone that he was sick.

As soon as he hung up the phone, Li Yifan went back to the dormitory to wash up, sat in front of the computer in a daze, and waited for the police to interrogate. Several people in the dormitory also got up one after another, and everyone knew that Zhang Rui's brother was going to interrogate Li Yifan, and they all comforted Li Yifan. Several of them firmly believe that Li Yifan has nothing to do with these cases, and they are all together at the time when the cases occurred.

Li Yifan ate some breakfast first, looked at his phone and it was almost ten o'clock, this morning was really difficult. He poured a glass of water and ate the medicine from the pillbox. After a while, the phone rang, and there was a landline number on it, and Li Yifan picked up the phone tremblingly.

"Hello, I am a staff member of the Criminal Police Brigade of the Western District of this city, please come to the Western District Police Station, we have two cases here that need your assistance, please come over as soon as possible." A stiff voice on the other end of the phone said, and after Li Yifan agreed again and again, he hung up the phone.

Li Yifan picked up his mobile phone and prepared to go out, Zhang Rui was worried about Li Yifan and wanted to go with him, Li Yifan said that it was okay, let them rest assured, and went out alone. Before going out, he used his mobile phone to check the route from the school to the police station, and then got on the bus. It took me several buses to get to the police station, and it was already an hour since I looked at my watch, and the universities in the city were usually in the suburbs, and their schools were not the exception.

"You're Li Yifan, right?" As soon as he walked into the hall of the police station, a young policeman in his twenties came over and asked Li Yifan. "We, Captain Jiang, have been waiting for you for a while, you and I are coming here." The other party took Li Yifan up to the third floor, walked through a long corridor, and took him to an interrogation room, where the other party went out.

Li Yifan looked nervously at the environment in the interrogation room, and he remembered the scene nine years ago. It seems that the big white wall that says Confession and Tolerance and Resistance Strictness have appeared in front of me again. and the distorted faces, and the policemen who shouted at him over and over again. Li Yifan couldn't help but shrink his body, and subconsciously covered his ears with his hands.

"You drew two dead girls in your comics, and in reality there are indeed two girls who are also dead." Jiang Dong looked at the information in his hand, glanced at Li Yifan who was sitting on the stool, and was about to hand him a cigarette, but Li Yifan refused.

"The environment and things at the scene of the crime are exactly the same as in your comics, and the only difference between the scene of the second case and your comics is that there is an extra suicide note in the deceased's mobile phone. The police preliminarily determined that the first case was an accident, the second case was a suicide, and your cartoon was a homicide. ”

Li Yifan looked at Jiang Dong who was sitting opposite in surprise, he still couldn't understand what this criminal policeman meant by what he was saying now.
