Rao Pei'er asked in surprise, "What?" Do you agree with me? ”

Ran Sinian sighed and nodded, "According to your description, this possibility is indeed very high. But there is one thing that must also be noted, that is, the harassment and intimidation text messages did not come as scheduled tonight, and this variable may mean something, either it represents a temporary pause, or a permanent end, or, or it is ......"

"What is it?" Rao Pei'er looked at Ran Sinian's face very badly, knowing that this third possibility was not a good thing.

"Either the other party has decided to sublimate his harassment and intimidation behavior, and he is no longer limited to text messages, he is going to put it into action," Ran Sinian frowned, his face gloomy, "In this way, I will go directly to the consultation center tomorrow to talk to Miao Mei." I can't sit idly by and ignore her business. Besides, I am still asking He Qirui to help me with such an important favor, and I have to be even more responsible for him and do my best to help Miao Mei. ”

"I'll go with you!" Rao Peier blurted out without thinking about it.

Ran Sinian smiled bitterly and asked, "What?" Want to look at me? Still saying you're not jealous? ”

Rao Pei'er glanced at Ran Sinian, "I want to look at you, but I'm not jealous, I can't let you become a third party who destroys other people's families!" ”

Ran Sinian shook his head helplessly, he was already very aware of the fact that Rao Pei'er was interested in him, but now he didn't want to puncture it, after all, his feelings for Rao Pei'er were still in the hazy stage.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Ran Sinian and Rao Peier rushed home. Ran Sinian continued to strike while the iron was hot in the study, competing with those face cards, his face recognition ability has grown by leaps and bounds in the recent period, he firmly engraved the faces of Qu Zichong, Fan Xiao, and Qu Zichong's subordinates Liang Yuan and Deng Lei in his heart, these people, he can already recognize them at the first time. Not to mention Rao Pei'er, who gets along with her every day and night, Rao Pei'er's face, especially those eyes, he can also recognize them at a glance in the crowd. As for the bomber's face that resembles Fan Xiao and is older than Fan Xiao, it has also been firmly imprinted in his mind since last night's dream.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, Ran Sinian still couldn't sleep, his mind was full of troubles that Miao Mei had encountered, he kept staring sideways at the mobile phone on the bedside table, with a hunch that the bell would ring soon, and tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

Sure enough, the phone screen lit up instantly, and a familiar melody sounded. Ran Sinian grabbed the phone almost immediately, and when he looked at the caller ID, his heart suddenly cooled half.

It was not Miao Mei or He Qirui who called, but Qu Zichong. Qu Zichong called him at this time, there must be a case.

"Hey, Team Qu." Ran Sinian picked up the phone and waited for Qu Zichong's explanation.

"Si Nian, there is a case, I will send you the address, and you will come over immediately. Time is pressing, and it is a matter of life and death for a little boy! Qu Zichong was concise and to the point, and he didn't intend to say more, just emphasizing that time was pressing.

Ran Sinian hung up the phone after answering, immediately got up and dressed, grabbed the mobile phone and walked out of the bedroom door. As soon as he went downstairs, Ran Sinian heard the sound of Rao Peier hurrying downstairs from upstairs.

"Si Nian, wait for me, I'll be with you." Rao Pei'er seemed to be calling Ran Sinian while going downstairs to get dressed.

The two met at the gate, and Ran Sinian noticed Rao Pei'er wearing a casual sportswear, a messy ponytail, and a haggard face.

The address sent by Qu Zichong is not close to Ran Sinian's home, which is already on the edge of the city, and the specific location is an underground warehouse of an abandoned factory. After more than half an hour's drive, Ran Sinian and Rao Peier arrived at their destination.

There were several police cars parked at the door of the abandoned factory, and Fan Xiao stood next to the police car and looked forward to it.

"Mr. Ran, you are here, hurry, come with me!" Fan Xiao didn't care about whether it was etiquette or not, and pulled Ran Sinian to run into the factory.

"What the hell is going on?" Ran Sinian was pulled by Fan Xiao and asked while running.

"A little boy has been kidnapped! The kidnapper has left you clues, and now only you can find the little boy's whereabouts! Fan Xiao shouted anxiously.

Ran Sinian was confused, and the kidnapper mentioned himself by name? Are the clues left specifically for yourself? Why?

The dim light illuminated a dilapidated warehouse about thirty meters in size, surrounded by damaged iron shelves and machinery that could not be seen to be anything. Ran Sinian was in the center of the warehouse, his eyes swept around, and soon, he stopped at a piece of paper hanging on the shelf directly opposite the center.

It was a pencil drawing about the size of A4 paper, showing a man lying flat on his bed in his mid-20s from an oblique angle, his face twisted and frightened, his limbs stiff, and his body straight. And above his body was a black mist pressed tightly, and even pressed his chest into a little deformed and dented, and many tiny tentacles stretched out from the edge of the black mist, sticking to the man's body, as if the black mist was going to melt into the man's body.

"Ghost press," Ran Sinian's gaze was firmly glued to the pencil drawing, and whispered, "The theme that this painting wants to express should be the commonly known ghost press, that is, nightmare, scientific explanation, that is, sleep paralysis." To put it simply, it means that the consciousness has been awakened, but the muscles of the limbs are still in a state of low tension, resulting in a situation where the consciousness does not listen to the command. Sleep paralysis is sometimes accompanied by hallucinations, and what kind of hallucinations arise depends on the different characteristics of the individual. The man in the painting is unable to move, and the horrific scenes he witnesses are hallucinations half-dreaming and half-awake. And the reason why he has such hallucinations may come from his subconscious fear of something. ”

"This painting was left by the kidnappers and left for you. In addition to this painting, he also left a recording of what he wanted to say to you. Qu Zichong said, raising his hand to signal Deng Lei to play the recording.

Deng Lei pointed to the antique tape recorder under the pencil drawing, took out his mobile phone, and introduced it to Ran Sinian: "The kidnapper put the tape he recorded in that tape, and I have just recorded the sound in my mobile phone, listen to it." As for the tape, we'll have to go back and analyze it carefully. ”

Since he saw that the pencil drawing was a nightmare, Ran Sinian felt a malice from the other party pointing at him, and he could guess that the kidnapper must have something to do with him, and kidnapping a little boy may not be his real purpose, but his real intention is to target himself.

"Hello, I'm Wang Xiao, the kidnapper who kidnapped Chen Jiakui's child," Deng Lei's mobile phone came out of a strange voice that had obviously changed his voice, and he spoke with interest and even excitedness, "You must be curious to know where I hid Chen Jiakui's child, who I am, and why I kidnapped Chen Jiakui's child." As I said just now, my name is Wang Xiao, oh, of course, this is a fake name, as for why I kidnapped Chen Jiakui's child, it was because I wanted to play a treasure hunt game with Mr. Ran Sinian, a master of dreams; Where did I hide Chen Jiakui's child? That's the fun of this game. ”

Ran Sinian felt a chill in his back, although he couldn't see this opponent hidden in the dark, but he could feel that this person was a psychologically distorted pervert, thinking that there was an innocent little boy who was with such a pervert now, he couldn't help but clench his fists, understanding Qu Zichong and Fan Xiao's anxiety like burning eyebrows, and understanding the meaning of the urgency of time.

"Mr. Ran, I believe the police will definitely show you this recording of mine. Now I'm going to introduce myself again, my name is Wang Xiao, and I went to your counseling center a year and a half ago to ask for your help, because I suffer from nightmares almost every night. I've heard that you're a master of dreams, and it's fitting that you'll treat me. I wanted to reveal all my secrets to you, to give myself all my life, to seek your salvation. It's just a pity that I didn't see you. I was greeted by a woman named Miao Mei, who was very absent-minded, and after hearing me say that the ghost pressed the bed, she hastily dismissed me with the claim of sleep paralysis. I felt severely scorned and perfunctory, I was unhappy and angry! Especially after learning that Miao Mei is your fiancée. At that time, I told myself, it doesn't matter if you don't help me, one day you will come to me and chase after me crying and shouting for me to accept your help. That's right, now, it's your turn to come to me and treat me for being late. But if you fail to find me, the price will be severe, and Chen Jiakui's child will become another me, or a cold dead corpse. ”

Ran Sinian glanced at Qu Zichong and exhaled heavily, he now finally understood what Miao Mei was suffering from, this Wang Xiao also sent the resentment of being despised to Miao Mei, and recently sent harassing and threatening text messages to Miao Mei every night, making Miao Mei miserable but unwilling to speak out, after all, it was Miao Mei's perfunctory behavior that led to Wang Xiao's pathological behavior a year and a half ago. And last night, the reason why Miao Mei didn't receive Wang Xiao's text message was just like Ran Sinian's worst premonition, it was because Wang Xiao had escalated his revenge, and was busy kidnapping the little boy Chen Jiakui, and arranging this scene, leaving clues for Ran Sinian to start this treasure hunt.

"Mr. Ran, the hint I gave you is my nightmare, this is the scene I felt after being pressed into bed by a ghost last night, I know, you must think it's a hallucination, because you think there are no ghosts in this world at all. I have also done some simple research, and of course I know that there are no ghosts in this world, and the so-called ghost press is actually my nightmare in essence. You are an expert in dream interpretation, and if you are really as capable as the rumors, you will be able to read my heart, my subconscious, through the paintings I left that depict my nightmares, and thus deduce where I will hide Chen Jiakui's children. I really hope you're as good as the rumors, otherwise this scavenger hunt will be boring, won't it? I can also assure you with my life and personality that the tips I left behind are absolutely true and I won't lie to you, otherwise, the game loses its meaning, doesn't it? Now that the game has officially begun, we hope we all have fun! ”
