Chapter 320: "Little Old Xia"
Seeing Xia Libing who rushed back, the third aunt, who had been standing at the door for a while, was not angry at all, after all, she didn't notify Xia Libing before she came over, and Xia Libing only asked her to borrow a car in the afternoon, and it was normal that she didn't come back outside.
In fact, she had just gone to the hospital, and she went to this neighborhood not far from the hospital to see her niece, but now she was a little more curious: "Where did you come from?"
"I went to the first medical university to find a friend. Xia Libing replied simply, and took out the car keys to the third aunt: "Thank you, third aunt." ”
"You let it go, I'll drive your third uncle's car, he won't use it for the past two days anyway. The third aunt said. Although this niece has had a strange personality since she was a child, she is very polite and distant from everyone, but she still feels good about this niece.
"Not anymore for now. Xia Libing said, opened the door, and then helped the third aunt carry things into the house.
As soon as she entered the house, the third aunt noticed the situation on the dining table in the living room.
At noon, when Xiang Kun and Xia Libing were having dinner, they received a call that their father had fallen and injured himself, so he rushed over urgently and didn't have time to clean up.
Later, after Xia Libing came back by himself, he was seizing the time to sort out his own information, and he didn't clean it up.
So when she entered the door now, what the third aunt saw was still the same as when the two of them left at noon before.
"What did you eat at home at noon? is this...... With friends?" the third aunt asked curiously, judging from the situation at the table, it was obvious that there were two people eating, but what was even more strange was that one of the dishes and chopsticks didn't seem to have been moved.
"Yes. Xia Libing nodded and said, and then began to clean up the things on the table: "Is there something wrong with the third aunt looking for me?"
"Oh, I look at the weather forecast, and it's going to cool down a lot for the next two days, so I've brought you a blanket. If you still have something to eat, just put it in the refrigerator and take it out to heat it up when you're hungry. ”
The third aunt helped Xia Libing clean up, while looking at the situation of the leftovers, and after taking the tableware to the kitchen, she was surprised: "You made lunch yourself?" She had the impression that Xia Libing should not be able to cook by herself.
"A friend did. Xia Libing explained simply.
"Is that Mr. Xiang who was with you the night before?" the third aunt asked tentatively.
Because of the time when Xia Libing went to work at Thorn Tong, she actually paid attention to the social situation of this niece, but from the information she learned, Xia Libing was basically a loner, and her relationship with her colleagues was relatively average, and she didn't hear that she knew any local friends of Thorn Tong, the only exception was that she helped her catch the two "wrongdoers" "Mr. Xiang" the night before yesterday.
"Yes. Xia Libing didn't hide it either.
"You just went to the first hospital, and you went to look for him, he couldn't have been hospitalized suddenly, right?" According to her thoughts, it is unlikely that Xia Libing will run to a hospital if she is fine, and if it is a business matter, she will definitely tell her.
"His dad fell and injured himself. Xia Libing's reply was still relatively simple.
"Oh, seriously, what's the situation? The third aunt asked with concern.
"Had a slight concussion and was hospitalized for two days to be on the safe side. Xia Libing will give a brief introduction to Kun's father's situation.
The third aunt nodded thoughtfully, and then said, "I just went to the courtyard, and I heard that someone sent you a supper last night?
"Yes. Xia Libing said.
The third aunt smiled and said, "In the past few days, find a time, you call Mr. Shangxiang to have a meal with me and your third uncle, just thank him for helping the night before yesterday." ”
"No, he doesn't like to eat with too many people. Xia Libing said, paused slightly, and added: "He is withdrawn and afraid of life." ”
The third aunt thought for a while, and then said, "Then ...... Tomorrow, I will find a time to go with you to the first courtyard to see Mr. Xiang's father? I also have some old friends in the first courtyard, so I can ask them to take care of him more. ”
Xia Libing still refused: "No need." ”
The third aunt didn't think it was upset, and chatted with Xia Libing for a while, knowing that she hadn't eaten dinner yet, so after helping her warm up some of the food she brought this time, she left.
Sitting in the car that Xia Libing returned to her, the third aunt took her mobile phone and rummaged through the address book, searched for a name at the beginning of Xia, and dialed it.
After a while, the phone was connected, and a cheerful voice rang out: "Third aunt, why did you remember to call me...... Oh, oh, I know, it's because I didn't take the initiative to call last night to pay New Year's greetings! I was wrong, Aunt San! Happy New Year! Wishing you prosperity! Good luck! Eat tonight...... Eat it well, and your body is great......"
"What a mess!" The third aunt couldn't help but interrupt loudly: "Add fire, do you have Yang Zhen'er's mobile phone number, send it to me." ”
"Hey, third aunt, what are you looking for us Yang Laosan, can't she be in trouble again?" Xia Tianhuo, who was overseas at this time, asked in a surprised tone on his mobile phone, "Tell me, what trouble did she have?" I will help you scold her again!"
"It's not a trouble, I'm looking for her to inquire about someone, a friend who has a good relationship with her and Xiaoice. The third aunt said.
"Xiaoice? Alas? Yes, Lao Xia is also in Thorn Tong now, and he has a good relationship with Lao Xia? Who, why don't I know? Wait, Third Aunt, you can't be a bald head, right?"
"Do you know Xiang Kun too?" said the third aunt strangely.
"Oh, I've met once, third aunt, what do you ask him to do?"
"What about this person, do you know?"
"I don't know much about it, but primarily, from what I've seen before, this person is pretty good. ”
"What's a good way to do it?"
"How to say it, I can't say the specifics, it's just a feeling......"
"Feeling...... You don't talk nonsense with me, send me Yang Zhen'er's number, and then what should you do. The third aunt said unkindly, "By the way, in the future, you are not allowed to call Xiaoice 'Lao Xia', a beautiful girl's family, only a teenager was called by you 'Lao Xia', 'Lao Xia', is it appropriate? It is when you are a brother that you can't call it that, next time I hear you call it like this, I will tell your father and I will tell you." ”
At this time, Xia Libing was sitting at the desk after quickly settling dinner, putting the six coins that Xiang Kun gave her in the afternoon, plus the previous three, a total of nine coins on the table, frowning slightly, thinking about something.
Moments later, a Napoleon cake appears on the table, but it quickly disappears, and then a crispy pork knuckle reappears in that spot, looking so realistic that it has a mouth-watering aroma.
Xia Libing stared at the two foods that he had "appeared", and his brows furrowed deeper and deeper, as if he had encountered some problems.
SHE OPENED HER LAPTOP, CREATED A NEW EXCEL SPREADSHEET, AND STARTED TO DO SOME STATISTICS.
I had explained to Kun before that she should not leave too many obvious and searchable records, so when she made the form, it was all kinds of special symbols that only she could understand, and the meaning of the data was not understood by anyone except her.
After a while, she seemed to understand something, her brows furrowed, then she picked up her phone, found Xiang Kun's WeChat avatar, and sent a message.
......
After separating from Lao Xia, Xiang Kun did not immediately go back to his father's ward, but found a stone chair in the hospital and sat down to check the message reminder sent by "Alice" just now.
The information about the "vampire" psychiatric patients in the three hospitals has been found by "Alice" before, and some content that matches the description has been found.
He asked "Alice" to send the information and read it.
In March last year, a 27-year-old woman who claimed to be the "Vampire Ancestor" in a small town below Thornton City took three young men who had been seduced by her and kidnapped a passer-by in the middle of the night to suck his blood.
Fortunately, when they were kidnapping, they were discovered by the surrounding residents and called the police in time, and the police arrived before the innocent passerby was harmed and arrested the "vampire ancestor" and three young men.
Later, after a psychiatrist's forensic evaluation, the woman who called herself the "vampire ancestor" was a mentally ill patient, so after the trial, she was arranged to go to the three hospitals of Thornton for compulsory treatment.
Come to think of it, it should be what Lao Xia said last night, the patient who claimed to be a "vampire" and only ate "red" things.
"Alice" found the verdict of the time, as well as all sorts of crazy remarks made online by the woman who called herself "Vampire Ancestor".
The remarks she made are basically all kinds of vampire settings in film and television dramas, and there are no real characteristics of "mutant creatures" and "vampires".
To be honest, if it was Xiang Kun himself and wanted to find the same kind, he would automatically skip this information when he searched on the Internet. Even if you see this information, you don't think that this person is the same kind or any related person.
But now, because of the special intuition after detecting in the "supersensory state" when he was in the Third Courtyard before, he felt that there should be something wrong with this person.
Of course, the investigation of this person now does not have to rely entirely on his own. Since Lao Xia already knows his situation, then he wants to check the patient, just go back and tell Lao Xia directly-we have someone inside!
I have to say that after telling this secret that had been hidden for more than half a year and telling another person, Xiang Kun felt that he seemed to be much more relaxed on the psychological level. And do a lot of things next, because of Lao Xia's helper, when making plans, you can be much more relaxed.
Not only the investigation of the "vampire" mentally ill, but also other things such as the arrangement of the blood drinking period, etc., can have more choices and more ways to carry them out.
was thinking in his mind, after Lao Xia, an "insider", joined, how to change some of the plans set before returning to Thorn Tong and rearrange, Xiang Kun received a WeChat message from Lao Xia:
"I'm going to sleep now. ”
If other people see this information, they may feel a little inexplicable, it's only seven o'clock now, go to bed so early, and don't send a WeChat message yet, what does it mean? If you know that Lao Xia didn't sleep much yesterday, you might guess that she wants to make up for sleep, so that he doesn't bother her next?
But as soon as Xiang Kun saw this news, he instantly understood what Lao Xia meant-she wanted to dream again, so Xiang Kun could make arrangements.
Could it be that after Lao Xia went back, he suddenly thought of something related to "fantasy appearance", and he needed to go to that special dream to verify it?
Xiang Kun didn't think much about it, closed his eyes, and began to sense the pair of chopsticks given to Lao Xia.
After knowing that chopsticks were guiding the dream, Lao Xia would definitely put the chopsticks by his side before going to bed, and he didn't need to remind him.
After more than six minutes, Xiang Kun perceived some changing images and successfully triggered Lao Xia's dream.
This time, as soon as the dream appeared, it was the scene when the two of them were eating at noon, but sitting opposite Lao Xia and in his original position was Liu Shiling, a chubby girl who was eating with chopsticks - this is the emotional projection of the chopsticks.
In the dream, Lao Xia was also eating and drinking, but this time, after only a few bites, he stopped, and then took out five coins from his pocket with his left hand and slapped them on the table, and then took out four coins from his pocket and slapped them on the table.
"Liu Shiling", who was sitting opposite her, was stunned for a moment, stopped eating, stared at the nine coins on the table in a daze, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Xia, can you eat coins?"
Lao Xia didn't answer, but Xiang Kun could already feel that extreme sense of sanity and lucidity appeared, Lao Xia had "woken up" in his dream, and this time the speed was much faster than the previous two times.
After entering the state of "lucid dreaming", Lao Xia got up and walked around the room, and the nine coins were like nine satellites, revolving around her.
"Xiang Kun, are you there?" Lao Xia suddenly said in a loud voice.
At this time, Xiang Kun's perspective and perception can already change everywhere in the dream, and there is no need to be limited to Lao Xia.
But the problem is that this dream is not caused by the black circle graffiti, and he can't enter the "supersensory state" in this dream, and he can't edit this dream directly, so he can't interact with Lao Xia in the dream, and he doesn't know how to "promise" her.
However, he quickly thought of a solution, he cut off the authority of one of Lao Xia's nine coins to use his ability, so in the dream world, the nine coins around Lao Xia's body suddenly turned into eight, and the dream projection of one of the coins disappeared.
But the next moment, the coin reappeared.
Lao Xia obviously understood that Xiang Kun was "greeting" her, and did not continue to ask, but manipulated the nine coins.
The nine coins disappeared in an instant, and at the same time, a little girl appeared in the dream.
That little girl is not a chubby girl, but a little Lao Xia on the photo that Xiang Kun saw in the PDF file made by Lao Xia in the afternoon.
The little girl was holding a scalpel in her hand, wearing a gorgeous princess dress, black leather shoes on her feet, and cute ornaments pinned to her head.
Belch...... Lao Xia showed her own image of her childhood in her dreams?
When you wake up, in reality, will you ......
When Xiang Kun thought this, Lao Xia's dream suddenly collapsed, and all perceptions disappeared.
He picked up his mobile phone as soon as possible and dialed Lao Xia's number.
Two seconds later, the phone was connected, and Lao Xia said, "Are you free now?" ”
"Good. ”
After Xiang Kun hung up the phone, he first ran back to his father's ward to check his father's condition, and then said to his mother before taking a taxi to Xia Libing's rented residence.
Xia Libing opened the door, and after Xiang Kun entered the house, he couldn't help but ask for the first time: "Can you show you when you were a child?"
To be honest, his original idea was that since Lao Xia could have things like cakes and pork knuckles, then it should be possible to have tables, chairs, and even cars, planes, and the like. A little bit more complex development, and then try to appear plants or something, I didn't expect Lao Xia to directly appear as a person? Or is it her own childhood? If this is "appeared" in reality, what would it be like?
Xiang Kun was extremely expectant and curious.
However, Xia Libing shook his head: "No." ”
"Oh, too. Xiang Kun can't talk about being disappointed, if he is really "revealed" by Lao Xia and comes out with a "little Lao Xia", then he will feel a little frightened.
"What's the difference?" Xiang Kun asked again.
He knew that Lao Xia called him over after waking up, there must be a reason, and it would not be simply to tell him that he couldn't show the "little Lao Xia" in his dream.
