After a brief period of drunken indulgence, their lives soon returned to their old ways. Luo Li and Ji Si'an are still busy looking for clients to take on cases; Yu Na still lingers in nightclubs, living a life of day and night upside down; Merlin, on the other hand, has completely disappeared from their lives.

"I envy her so that she can forget so chic."

As the sun sets, the afterglow recedes, and the mountains and waters gradually return to their original appearance.

"When she can accept herself, she will naturally contact you again." Yang Ningning gently placed the tea in front of Ji Si'an.

"As long as she's happy, there's really nothing good about this time, just forget it." Ji Si'an looked at the dark scenery outside the window and said.

"What about you? Why do you have to remember it? Yang Ningning tried to persuade her in this way.

Ji Si'an talked about his dream: "I've been ...... recently. I always dreamed of my sister, who sat on the bed and kept asking me why I was robbing her stuffed bear ....... I would like to explain to her...... But I can't make a sound......"

"Maybe it's your guilt for your sister that caused this to happen. Xiao An, you must understand that all this is not your fault, you are also a victim, and you owe no one anything. Yang Ningning said softly but firmly.

"No...... I think it could be true. The teddy bear was exactly the same as the scene of the crime...... My sister kept sleeping with it in her arms......"

"I just don't understand why my dreams are all about the details. Why is it that during the hypnosis, I can clearly see the floor, the small porcelain cup with the kitten pattern, and the light brown bear with the bow, but I can't see the murderer...... Why? Ningning, why is that? ”

Ji Si'an felt deeply guilty.

"Maybe that memory was so scary that your brain buried it to protect you." Yang Ningning has always disagreed with Ji Si'an's decision to insist on remembering that past.

"If I don't remember, I'll never be able to get rid of the nightmare, I'll never be able to have peace of mind." Saying that, Ji Si'an lay on the sofa and prepared to accept hypnosis.

Seeing this, Yang Ningning stopped persuading her, lit the aromatherapy, and prepared to start hypnosis.

This time, Ji Si'an came to a winding country road, and his mother took his sister's hand and walked in front. She trotted to keep up with them, but no matter how hard she tried, she could only pull the shadow that would stretch into them......

Just as she was about to cry in a hurry, a tall man quickly overtook her and chased after her mother and sister, and the huge shadow he cast engulfed her in an instant.

As she struggled out of the darkness, her mother was the only one left on the gravel-strewn path. The mother fell to her knees on the dirt floor, and her suppressed cries of pain hit her soul.

Ji Si'an covered his ears, but he couldn't stop the penetration of the sound, and the cry kept echoing in his head...... Just when she thought she was about to wake up from hypnosis, the scene in front of her changed, and she came to an old courtyard.

Ji Si'an instantly relaxed, it was grandma's house. The crooked, inside-out stone walls, the gray, rotten wooden doors, everything was the way it was then. She pushed the door open, but the usually squeaky hinge didn't make any noise. Just as she was looking at the doorshaft in amazement, the high threshold nearly tripped her. As soon as she stabilized herself, she heard voices in the room.

"Ji Hui didn't do the right thing in this matter, he shouldn't have beaten you. But you're doing something inappropriate. "It's grandma talking.

"What's wrong with me? Mom, you're a woman too, do you think they're doing it properly? Heather is a fool, are we fools too? Mom, if it were your daughter, would you do the same? The mother's voice was sad and depressed.

"What can we do? We're not one of hers...... It's all her life...... When her mother was there, she was still able to protect Ichigo, but when her mother was gone, she was the rootless water, and she could only be at the mercy of others. Grandma's voice was old and tired.

"So I said I had to call the police, there is a law, there is a government, they can't ......do that," the mother was very excited.

"Yingying...... You are a person who has read books, you have seen a lot, and you know more than I do. I ask you, what if you call the police? Will Nan girl be better because of your police? ”

"I'm ......," the mother's voice stuck there and stopped.

"I am a person who has survived from the old society, and I am miserable...... I've seen a lot more than that...... She is just married, and there are those who are sold, used as a venting tool, and who picks up customers every day to earn money...... Every minute of life is torment, not even as good as a brute......"

"Say no more! Say no more! I can't stay in this place for a moment. I can't let my daughter grow up in a place like this. I'm going to take them out of ......."

Her mother's sharp voice exploded in Ji Si'an's heart, and she woke up from the severe pain, her eyes were blank, but her heart gradually cleared.

Whoever the woman named Heather was, this incident must have been one of the reasons why the mother was determined to leave.

She is not the woman who can't be satisfied with poverty in her father's mouth, she has her own ideals and principles, she must be desperate for that kind of life before she wants to divorce and think about leaving. She just didn't want her daughters to repeat her mistakes.

The warm and soft towel fell gently on her head, and Yang Ningning carefully wiped her sweat-soaked hair.

Ji Si'an grabbed her hand and thanked her sincerely.

"You're welcome to me. Remember something? The clear and long voice softened Ji Si'an's tense nerves with a flexible force.

"Mom and grandma had a fight, as if it was because of a woman named heather. Finding her might solve some of the puzzles. Although he said this, Ji Si'an's face did not have a trace of relaxation.

"It seems that you are slowly opening up the memories of your childhood. I want you to understand that those things are in the past, that they will not happen again, and that they will not hurt you again. Don't be obsessed with change, just accept it, maybe it's better. Yang Ningning's gentle words pushed away the ice.

Ji Si'an smiled and nodded, now she has improved a lot compared to before. There is no almost perfectionist demand for her mother at the beginning, so that she can easily accept her mother's shortcomings.

When Ji Si'an left Yang Ningning's clinic, it was completely dark. On the way home, she searched her stomach and thought about what other acquaintances she had in her hometown. She wanted to inquire about heather.

When he returned home, Ji Si'an was slightly disappointed by the dark living room, and Luo Li was not there today. This guy has moved out like he's scared of something since the last time he practiced drunkenness.

Locking the door, Ji Si'an habitually blocked the door with a chair, locked the windows one by one, and finally came to the balcony and pulled the thick curtains tightly before she sat down with confidence and complained about the plump and plump fat plants.

Lori, this guy is really, I'm not a mind-reading demon, what is she afraid of. But what kind of secret is this guy guarding so cautiously...... She didn't know that this would arouse the curiosity of others even more.
