Chapter 7 [The First Year of Inception]
Look at the materials in this file.
My sister suddenly blurted out in surprise: "Laurent Connie? ”
"How do you have his information?"
Sister Qingqing took the piece of paper, she obviously didn't expect it to be this person.
Before Shao Junwen could speak.
Sister Qingqing explained with half surprise: "This is the chief dreammaker of Blizzard Dream Dragon Company, and our company has seen him at the press conference of the cooperation. ”
"Could it be that he also has a dream mental illness?"
If that's the case, that's a big deal!
The information of the famous Laurent Connie is actually in the research file of the psychotherapist, and if it is circulated, it will attract crazy attention from the media.
At this time, Shao Junwen raised his head, and it happened that he had not found any new clues, and behind that piece of information, there was actually a phone number and date address.
He immediately said, "You turn it over, there's something in the back." ”
My sister looked around, and sure enough, she saw the number and a date and address from more than three years ago.
With a cautious expression, she pulled out her phone and searched it for information on Laurent Connie.
Suddenly shocked: "This is his business card number." ”
"And the date address?"
Shao Junwen immediately decided, "Maybe I should meet him again." ”
Apparently the words on the back of the paper imply that they may have agreed to meet at a certain time and place three years ago.
……
About a moment.
The martial law officer returned to the door of the pantry, he knocked on the door and said, "Those three people who have been confirmed are dangerous criminals, for your safety, I suggest that you do not leave our surveillance sight for the time being." ”
My sister immediately handed over the person's information.
She spoke, "Laurent Connie, we suspect he might know something about what happened three years ago. ”
There is no shirk from martial law, and many of the cases in his hands that cannot find traces left by criminals may have been done by this group of people.
"I'll arrange it."
With that, his last gaze fell on the guy who had woken up from a deep sleep.
Spit out four words: "You were originally an expert in dreaming!" ”
Immediately, the law turned and left.
"You're a dream expert!"
This is the most intuitive evaluation of Shao Junwen by the legal police officer of the Dream Crime Section.
It is also an objective answer to the other party's request to learn the dream inception technique, to be precise, before that, Shao Junwen was an expert in this industry.
There is no such thing as good and evil in this ability.
It's about what you do through him.
You can go into other people's dreams to explore their psychological trauma and guide them to support them.
It is also possible to enter other people's dreams and thus carry out illegal acts that harm others and benefit themselves.
Good and evil are just a thought.
……
In the evening of the same day.
A private café in Xingman Plaza in Mingdong District.
In the corner sat a man with sunglasses and slightly curly hair, reading the international dream fashion newspaper, and this person was the famous dreammaker they were going to meet, Laurent Connie.
Due to his status, it is reasonable to refuse to go to the Dream Crime Authority (DCSD).
No matter how secret your whereabouts are, once you get involved with this department, there will be countless negative scandals.
Not only will it have a great impact on his personal reputation, but even other partner companies will have unimaginable losses.
A lot of factors were taken into account.
It can only be agreed to meet in this private café, and Shao Junwen is only allowed to chat with him alone.
Others can only pretend to be passers-by at the next table in the café, and the farther away they sit, the better.
After all, it would be quite a bad thing if it was photographed by reporters from the paparazzi and rivals.
That's what Laurent Coney is asking for.
Shao Junwen sorted out his suit and shirt, he came out of the bathroom, glanced at his sister and police officer in the far corner, and walked towards the table where the target was located.
"Doctor Shao, are you still investigating?"
Laurent Connie shook her head and said with difficulty: "I heard you were unconscious, I thought ......"
Shao Junwen looked at the person in front of him with a relaxed gaze.
Whether it is from the sitting posture or the tone of speech, the expression of the other party is very natural, so you can see it.
At the meeting three years ago, there was no big conflict of contradictions.
I was only cautious about this meeting, and I didn't worry too much.
Shao Junwen rubbed his head and replied in a calm voice: "I can't remember a lot of things." ”
He looked the other person in the eye and asked, "I wish you could tell me what I talked to you about three years ago?" ”
Hearing this, it was like a thunderbolt.
Laurent Connie's mouth was slightly open, shocked and incredulous.
Memory loss?
This is definitely not your ordinary accident that causes amnesia.
"No, you ran into them!"
Laurent Connie's expression became tense as hell as he looked, and he even felt the urge to get out of here.
Because the conversation that follows, and how it might drag itself into the water.
He took off his sunglasses and stepped forward with a serious expression: "Listen to me, since you have forgotten, don't pursue it." ”
"You should know better than I can that the reason why you forgot those things is because they have their eyes on you."
He swallowed a mouthful of water, cold sweat oozing from his forehead, and said, "No one can escape the sleepiness of the night, once you can't hold on to sleeping, then the nightmare will begin." ”
"I only ask you for one thing, let me go."
"Let's just assume that our meeting didn't happen today, okay?"
The more nervous and scared Laurent Connie was, the more Shao Junwen cared, because the other party obviously knew something.
Shao Junwen pressed the other party's shoulder to prevent the other party from leaving.
He didn't speak, he just used his gaze to express his purpose and position.
In his opinion, what the other party was about to say, and important clues that might involve the erasure of his own memory.
Laurent Connie put back on her sunglasses vigilantly, then looked around to make sure she was safe, and then pretended not to care, and said, "One night three years ago, I received a letter from you. ”
"You said you have a solution to my technical problem, how to achieve a seamless connection and transformation of the dream scene."
"We agreed to meet at that time!"
Laurent Coney seems to be recalling the first time they met.
"You made a request, and you asked me to cooperate with you in an experiment!" His voice suddenly became gloomy: "You said you discovered the secret of modifying your memory. ”
Hearing this, Shao Junwen's pupils suddenly dilated slightly, and sure enough, he ......
Laurent Connie's voice was low for fear of being heard by others, and he continued: "You said that there are two technical problems with modifying memories, the first is how to delete memories, and the second is how to construct memories. ”
"You said that to do this, it takes not just one person, but a team."
"This requires an extremely good and excellent dream master, and at least to enter the second layer of dreams, and secondly, a hidden dream master is needed to hide or delete the core memories."
"Then let the dreamer build new memories in the protective consciousness layer, which is the second layer."
"People's memories are recalled from shallow to deep, and when they touch the second layer, they will mistakenly think that it is the truth they think, and finally achieve the effect of modifying the memory."
"And no one has been able to enter the third layer yet, maybe there is, but no one knows."
"In other words, if no one can enter the third layer to reveal the secret, then the person with the modified memory will live in the modified memory for a long time, or even a lifetime."
Laurent Connie's expression became a little nervous, like a wild deer in the forest that was wary of predators, and he suddenly glared at the other party and said, "Do you know how dangerous this theory is? ”
"Once it is spread, how many crimes will be born."
"Trust me, I've never mentioned this to anyone, and I don't want to get into any trouble."
"That's why I refused your request at the time."
"You're so angry that you recorded a video of our meeting and threatened me, saying that if I revealed the theoretical basis of your modified memory, then you would release the video and make us the culprits of disturbing the social order."
Shao Junwen was very sensitive to the fact that there was something wrong with the matter, so he said that the other party said that he was threatening.
He blurted out, "You're lying!" ”
"I'm not lying!" Laurent Connie retorted through gritted teeth.
"I threatened you, but you don't have any resentment or grudge against me!" Shao Junwen questioned hoarsely.
Laurent Connie suddenly sneered, "I do hold a grudge, but you still taught me how to achieve a seamless transition of dream scenes. ”
At this point, he seemed a little joking and proud.
"At that time, there were not many people who could complete this technology, and I stood out from countless dream makers with this ability!"
"Now I want money and money, and I want status and status."
"I don't have to hold a grudge against you!"
Shao Junwen didn't speak, he fell silent.
Before meeting, he did deliberately check the other party's information, and he also knew how the famous dream maker in front of him became famous.
It's just that he didn't expect that the dream technique that the other party became famous for was actually taught by himself.
Shao Junwen asked very sensitively: "What experiment did I ask you to participate in at that time?" ”
"You said you were going to try to fix a guest's memory, and you were using a modified memory to fill in the correct memory." Laurent Connie laughed ridiculously, "Do you think this kind of thing is not funny? ”
"Also, this kind of thing is strictly forbidden."
"Even if it's you, Dr. Shao!"
Laurent Connie said in a cold tone: "Although I am not a good person, I will never touch the red line, and your current fate is the result of insisting on research back then." ”
Shao Junwen asked: "Then do you know who I chose as the dream recluse master of the experimental team at that time?" ”
Laurent Connie was silent, as if hesitating to say the man's name.
There was even a hint of evasion in his eyes.
Finally, he glanced at the Dream Cops on the table in the distance, and finally swallowed a mouthful of water and said, "Jesse Stowe, a madman." ”
With that, he stood up and turned to leave.
……
See this scene.
Martial Law was anxious to catch up, but saw Shao Junwen raise his hand to signal that it was not necessary.
At the end of the conversation, it was already possible to let people go.
"Finished talking?"
Discipline's brows furrowed, and he sat down opposite Shao Junwen, and then asked, "How is it?" ”
"Who is Jesse Stowe?" Shao Junwen looked at each other in surprise.
At the mention of this name, the expression of the martial law changed extremely subtly, and his eyes wandered as if he was thinking about something.
"Jesse Stowe, a very famous dream teacher, but unlike everyone else, he's a madman, and he uses a very special way of dreaming."
"Ordinary people are memories hidden in a deeper level, making it difficult for dream thieves to get their hands on them."
"But at the end of the day, the memory is still in the other person's head."
"And Jesse Stowe's method of deleting memories!"
"He directly deletes the part of the memory of a secret of the other party, for example, a set of bank passwords, he will delete the memory of the first three digits."
"At the same time, back up these three digits in reality!"
"So if you want to crack the complete bank password, even if you invade the dream realm, it won't help, you need to get the other half in reality."
That's a long list of things.
Shao Junwen had a general understanding of this person, but he found that the other party used a word, which meant that things were not so simple.
He asked tentatively, "Ever?" ”
Ever been a famous hidden dream teacher?
Martial Law looked sideways in the direction of the dreammaker's departure, and explained in a low voice, "Jesse Stowe was arrested three years ago for being involved in multiple financial cases. ”
"He's being targeted by the Dream Stealers."
"Because the criminals realized that this guy was the one who had the most secrets."
"The theft of Jesse Stowe's memory, which caused serious damage to hundreds of people's property, was an extremely sensational case at the time."
"The guests who suffered property damage jointly sued him in prison."
Hear this.
Even Shao Junwen couldn't help but show a playful and mocking expression, shook his head with a smile and spit out two words!
"Idiot!"
What an ironic thing.
A hidden dream mentor teaches others how to hide secrets, only to be stolen by himself.
He was even thinking that this guy might have been targeted a long time ago, but others were just waiting for him to take on a few more customers before harvesting.
And yet that moment.
Shao Junwen was shaken all over his body, and goosebumps were raised like creeps all over his body.
Some kind of possibility came to his mind, and even his instincts told him that it was the closest answer to the truth.
He swallowed.
deliberately suppressed his voice and explained to the other party: "It's him!" ”
"This guy was snooped on by someone's dream, and my search for him was naturally exposed."
The discipline was stunned, and asked in surprise, "Have you looked for this person?" ”
Shao Junwen swallowed a mouthful of water, and slowly said with a worried and serious expression: "Three years ago, I may have taught him how to modify other people's memories. ”
Hearing this, the whole person was stunned.
It was as if he had heard something unbelievable, and then when he realized that it had happened three years ago, his heart was in turmoil.
Even the martial law officer looked at the man in front of him with a hint of fear and suffocation.
Because a large number of dream criminals only began to break out three years ago.
Before that, no one believed that it was possible to modify memories by invading dreams!
That year is also known as the first year of Inception.
