I walked out of the office in despair, and I continued to walk forward, and I walked out of the gate of the police academy. On the way, I was constantly greeted by students, but I didn't have the heart to answer them. I was standing outside the gate of the police academy, and there was a lot of traffic outside. This is the time when the city is at its busiest during the day.

Jiang Jun followed me all the time, he didn't stop me, and I didn't look back at him, but I knew that he had been following me. I looked left and right, turned right, and continued walking. This direction is the path that the old professor took when he saw me and Dr. Liu leaving the police academy.

I tried to think about it, but alas, I couldn't remember it at all.

The old professor and the other teachers in the office said that I had a decadent life that lasted for several days. Some people remember that I returned to the police academy late one night, and that day, many professors in the police academy were working all night on a case, and they invited me, but I didn't show up.

Someone found me back to the police academy in tatters, they asked me what happened, I didn't say, just lowered my head and went back to the unit, looking at my back, they said that I was very worried at that time. Since the second day, I haven't been to class.

The police have a case that they need my help with, but I won't answer the phone. After two days of non-show up, the leader of the police academy finally worried about me, so the leader and several other professors went to the unit to look for me. It was the mother who opened the door, and when she saw them, she cried, and she told them that I had not drunk water or eaten for two days.

Everyone tried to persuade me, but I didn't do anything. They poured water and food into my mouth while I was so tired that I fell asleep. I can't imagine that there will be such a decadent period in my life, when I never take the initiative to drink water, do not eat, do not go to the shower, and never go out.

My face was haggard and my face was full of scum, but no one, including my mother and Xu Yi, could persuade me.

At that time, Xu Yi was not at home, and during special periods, Xu Yi's unit was always working overtime, so Xu Yi slept in the dormitory of the unit. Hearing the news, Xu Yi asked for leave and rushed back directly. I heard that the moment I saw Xu Yi, I actually hugged Xu Yi and cried.

They had never seen me cry, so they were very surprised. They didn't know what happened to me, and when I got back to normal, they never mentioned it. When Xu Yi returned, the heavy responsibility of persuading me fell on Xu Yi, and everyone left my room.

When the door closed, everyone sat outside and waited.

Maybe persuasion worked, and I really came out of the room. I took the initiative to eat, drink water, take a bath, shave my beard, and go to class. Life seemed to be back to normal, but everyone felt as if I was missing something. When I was in class, I was always talking nonsense, I never made mistakes.

When I walk, I always keep my head down and hunched over.

My mother told them that I would lock myself in my room as soon as I came home for dinner. Xu Yi couldn't rest assured of me, and never went to work, but stayed with me to accompany me. But when everyone asked Xu Yi how my situation was, Xu Yi just sighed and shook his head.

The attentive old professor found that Xu Yi had also become different, although she did not cry, her eyes were slightly red, and her eyes were erratic.

There are many people who are optimistic about me, and there are also many people who are not optimistic about me. At that time, there was a saying in the police academy: Li Ke was abolished. However, all the rumors disappeared after a few days. Because suddenly one day, I was completely back to normal, the decadence was gone, and the arrogance returned.

The leaders of the police academy were very happy, afraid that I would become like that again, and no one asked me what had happened. The old professor thought very carefully, the day I went out with Dr. Liu, my whole body was still depressed, and I returned to normal, as if it was after I and Dr. Liu left the police academy.

He didn't think much of it at the time, and he thought that Dr. Liu, who was good at psychological counseling, had convinced me. After so much time, the old professor has already forgotten about it, and if I hadn't mentioned it, he might not have taken the initiative to talk about it for the rest of his life. If everybody says that, then it's absolutely true, but I don't remember it at all.

Later, Xu Yi and his mother never mentioned this incident to me, perhaps because they were afraid that I would repeat the same mistakes, or perhaps they also had their own agendas.

When the truth of the case slowly emerged, I felt that I was alone against this suspenseful world, and now, this feeling is even more profound. I was like a fool, I walked down the road as if everyone knew the truth and I was the only one who was kept in the dark.

However, it was not only others who deceived me, but also myself.

Nine times out of ten, Liu Jia's speculation is true, I found Dr. Liu by myself and asked him to hypnotize me to hide some memories. I held out my hand, and suddenly I felt like I was doing something of my own, and I couldn't understand what I was thinking.

There were a lot of people on the road, and the old professor said that Dr. Liu and I were walking in the opposite direction to Dr. Liu's house, so I followed this road. Every now and then, people bump into me, and they don't apologize, and some even curse in a low voice. I still have the most basic thinking skills.

Dr. Liu did not hypnotize me at the police academy because he was afraid that others would find out, and he did not take me home, because he was afraid that Liu Jia would find out. Well, Dr. Liu must have taken me to a very secluded place, where there was absolutely no one else. Although several years have passed and the neighborhood has become more lively, the area was lively enough a few years ago.

I kept walking, I don't know how long, and finally, I walked around the corner. It's like a dividing line between the lively and the deserted, and across this street corner, the noise immediately becomes quieter. Here, there are many old houses, and in each house there are old people, and I walked through one old alley after another.

When my leather shoes stepped on the bluestone path, I suddenly had an impression.

I seem to have been to this place. It was a very vague impression, and I looked around sharply, and this place was really familiar, but I wanted to think more closely, but I couldn't remember anything. I don't know if this is a delusion, but I was lucky, maybe Dr. Liu and I really came to this place.

I quickened my pace, and I ran in this familiar and strange place. Finally, I crossed the last alley, a small forest, it was early spring, and in the middle of the woods, the young green shoots were just pulling out of the branches. When I saw this grove, a very strong voice in my heart said to me: Walk through this place!

I took off my coat, tossed it aside, and ran quickly into the grove.

I heard Jiang Jun calling for me, and he followed me all the time. I didn't look back, and when I finally made my way through the grove panting, I felt a wave of fatigue all over my body. I bent over and gasped for air, and Jiang Jun finally ran up.

Jiang Jun had already picked up the clothes I had thrown away, and I was covered in sweat all over my body, and my shirt was sticking to my body, which was very uncomfortable.

"Professor Li, you've been gone for hours, what are we doing here?" Jiang Jun couldn't help but asked me.

That's when I realized I hadn't realized I had been gone for so long. I followed Jiang Jun's gaze and looked forward, this turned out to be an old cemetery, this cemetery seems to have been abandoned a long time ago, and few people should come here. There is no wall outside the cemetery, only a rusty iron fence that surrounds it.

From a distance, the cemetery is desolate, and the place where Jiang Jun and I stand is also a dividing line, the dividing line between death and life. In front of us is a desolate cemetery, and behind us, there is a vibrant wood.

"I've been to this place before." I muttered to Jiang Jun.
