Chapter 7 Underground Bar 'Rainbow'

 When Yu Zhesen woke up, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

Probably Qin Yuqing was afraid that he would catch cold, so she covered him with a blanket.

Yu Zhesen rubbed his eyes and stood up from the recliner, slowly walking out of the psychological consultation room.

Qin Yuqing was sitting at her desk, wiping her glasses slowly.

"Dr. Qin...is the consultation over?" Yu Zhesen asked, pressing his temple.

"It's better to say that it didn't start smoothly at all."

Qin Yuqing shook her head helplessly and asked: "Have you been watching any old-era literary works recently? Or movies or documentaries?"

"No." Yu Zhesen looked at Qin Yuqing in confusion, not understanding why she asked him this.

Qin Yuqing hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Then do you still remember our conversation in the darkroom?"

"It seems...you want me to see a kaleidoscope?"

"Yes, and what next?"

"I can't remember clearly..."

Qin Yuqing sighed and asked him to sit down on the chair opposite.

"So... Doctor Qin, is it my problem?"

"I don't know, it seems like my hypnosis failed on you."

"Maybe it was successful... I slept very comfortably." Yu Zhesen said humorously.

Qin Yuqing shrugged, smiled, and put on her glasses again.

"Actually, I suspect that I have a mental problem." Yu Zhesen sat on a chair, looking down at the smooth floor.

"What's wrong?"

"I received a notice from the Marriage and Childbirth Bureau that there will be a blind date event tomorrow... But when I was washing up this morning, I saw a girl in the mirror. I thought it was a reflection at first... She firmly discouraged me from going tomorrow.

Don’t go to the appointment.”

Qin Yuqing calmly took out her mobile phone, opened the chat history with Shen Yunqiu, looked through it, and confirmed to Yu Zhesen: "Xiao Yu, you work in the express company, right?"

"Yes."

"Nothing, just keep talking."

Yu Zhesen then continued the previous topic: "I found that I could talk to the girl in the mirror, and then my roommate came in. He asked me strangely who I was talking to. He couldn't see the person in the mirror."<

/p>

"What does the girl in the mirror look like? You said that you thought it was a reflection at first. Does that mean you were not surprised by her appearance? She is an acquaintance of yours?" Qin Yuqing grasped the key point.

"She... looks the same as my sister, except for the color of her hair."

"Your sister has black hair, right."

"Well, the girl in the mirror is light golden."

Qin Yuqing picked up a pen and wrote a few words on the notebook in front of her, and then asked: "How is your relationship with your sister?"

"We are not biological siblings, but I grew up in her family. Our relationship... is not bad."

"Then besides my sister, who else is there in the family?"

"The adoptive father is gone."

When Qin Yuqing heard this, she felt almost confident: "Xiao Yu, let me ask you to be blunt, do you have a good impression of your sister? Do you like her?"

"I think so...Dr. Qin, is this a sister love story?" Yu Zhesen admitted.

"But you seem to be very sane. You don't seem to be so fanatical that you have hallucinations." Qin Yuqing said.

"Really..."

"Is this the first time this has happened? I'm referring to seeing a blonde girl who looks like your sister in the mirror."

"Yes, it appears for the first time."

Qin Yuqing nodded: "Probably because you are too loyal to your sister, you subconsciously resist being arranged to go on a blind date with other people. I don't think this is a particularly serious problem.

It still needs to be observed for a while.”

"Do I need to take any medicine in the near future?"

"It's not necessary, just pay attention to your work and rest routine."

Yu Zhesen stood up and expressed his gratitude to her.

Because the hypnotherapy did not go smoothly, Qin Yuqing insisted on waiving the consultation fee for him.

"If you see that girl in the mirror next time, come back to me." Qin Yuqing sent Yu Zhesen out, "As for your personal emotional choices, I don't think there is any need to be too entangled, just let it take its course."
p>

If you let nature take its course, does that mean you accept the arrangements of the Marriage and Childbirth Bureau?

Yu Zhesen was noncommittal about this suggestion.

After thanking Qin Yuqing again, he left the office building where the psychological clinic was located, found a small restaurant to finish his missed lunch and dinner, and then waited for nightfall.

……

At night, the underground bar "Hongyu".

Various guests gathered around a long hollow ring-shaped table, and everyone focused their attention on the sealed iron ball suspended above the long table.

There is a countdown device at the bottom of the iron ball, which shows that there are 4 minutes and 59 seconds left until the lottery draw.

Yu Zhesen hurried down the stairs and tucked the package under his arm.

The bartender in a black tuxedo whispered to a bald middle-aged man wearing sunglasses behind the bar: "Boss, that kid is here again."

"Is that him?" The bald middle-aged man pulled down his sunglasses slightly, revealing a pair of deep and sharp eyes.

"Citizen ID Yu Zhesen, 22 years old, employee of Lightning Husky Express Company."

The bartender curled his lips and continued: "Since three months ago, this guy has been here twice, and each time he placed bets in the last minute before the lottery draw."

"And become the winner every time?" The bald middle-aged man frowned slightly.

"Never an exception."

Yu Zhesen was standing at the long circular table, looking up at the iron ball hanging above, unaware that two eyes at the bar in the distance were staring at him closely.

All he can see is the countdown to the lottery draw on the iron ball.

1 minute and 05 seconds...

1 minute and 4 seconds...

……

1 minute and 01 seconds.

After the countdown entered the last minute, Yu Zhesen's pupils suddenly dilated, and his causal prediction ability was activated, revealing to him the answer to the type of cocktail in the iron ball.

With 30 seconds left, Yu Zhesen used the bracelet on his left wrist to scan the ordering devices that could be seen everywhere on the long circular table.

"Bernis, tequila, vodka Corinthian." He chose three cocktails from hundreds of cocktails without hesitation.

Spend a total of 1800sp points, confirm payment.

After doing all this, Yu Zhesen breathed a sigh of relief.

There are still 10 seconds left for the result to be announced, but for him the game is already over.

The countdown of the iron ball reached zero, and fireworks and ribbons were sprayed out in all directions. The shell of the ball peeled off, revealing a transparent inner container containing three wine glasses.

Bernice, Tequila, Vodka Corinthian.

The eagerly awaited crowd let out a sigh of disappointment.

A smile appeared on Yu Zhesen's lips, and then he left the spot, looking for the target of tonight's delivery among the guests in the bar.

At the bar, the bartender put the three cocktails on the tray, but the young man who ordered them was no longer there.

The bald middle-aged man wearing sunglasses tilted his head to indicate to the bartender, who then picked up the tray with wine and walked quickly towards Yu Zhesen.

For Yu Zhesen, participating in tonight's betting is not just a whim.

Considering that he might have to go to Qin Yuqing for several psychological consultations in the future, he felt that he needed to accumulate some SP points for a rainy day.

Yu Zhesen knew that a winner like himself who only ordered three glasses of wine would easily attract attention. It wasn't that he didn't want to put on a show and do a full set, but he was really short of money and the SP points on his personal account were only enough to order three glasses of wine.

This is the last time... He secretly swore in his heart.

Winning the quiz is not difficult for him with special powers. What gives him a headache tonight is the package in his hand.

There are more than a hundred guests in the Hongyu Bar at this time, a quarter of whom are women. Most of them are wearing heavy makeup and full of charm. It is really a bit embarrassing to find one among them to be titled "the most beautiful".

Yu Zhesen was walking through the crowd when he suddenly noticed someone approaching him quickly from the side.

"Aren't the guests going to enjoy Victory's wine?" The bartender's voice suddenly sounded.

Yu Zhesen turned around in surprise and saw the bartender holding a tray in his left hand. His right hand on his waist intentionally or unintentionally lifted the hem of his tuxedo, revealing the pistol on his waist.

This made him swallow the words of rejection that had reached his lips.

Three minutes later, on the sofa behind the bar, Yu Zhesen sat upright like a student who was listening carefully in class.

There were three cocktails on the coffee table in front of him, Bernis, Tequila, and Vodka Corinthian.

A bald middle-aged man wearing sunglasses sat to the side with his legs crossed, and the bartender stood beside him with his hands behind his back.

"Drink." The bald middle-aged man stretched out his hand to indicate to Yu Zhesen the three cocktails on the table.

Yu Zhesen forced a smile, leaned over and took the first glass of Bernice in front of him.

"What do you call your distinguished guest?"

"Yu Zhesen."

"If I remember correctly, today is the third time in four months that you have become a winner." The bald head touched his shiny forehead.

"Well..."

"Don't be nervous, I'm just curious, how did you do it?"

The bald man leaned forward, leaning his elbows on the coffee table, and supporting his stubble-gray chin with the fingers of his intertwined hands.

Yu Zhesen was silent for a few seconds and replied: "I don't know either."

The bartender couldn't help but frown.

"Every time you come here, you place your order at the last minute. You only order three glasses of wine every time, and you become the winner every time. How can there be such a coincidence in the world?" The bald head smiled slightly.

Yu Zhesen sat there blankly with his mouth pursed, as if he didn't intend to respond to him.

The bald man took off his sunglasses and looked directly at her. Their eyes were in silent contact for a minute.

What surprised him in his heart was that the young man did not escape his gaze and maintained his gaze calmly.

"Well, people have often said in the past that my eyes look scary, and there are not many people like you who can look me in the eye." The bald head put on his sunglasses again.

Yu Zhesen still didn’t speak.

"Last question."

"Are you the holder of a superpower gene?" Baldhead deliberately lowered his voice.

"I..."

"You should think about it before you answer." The bald man raised his hand to interrupt Yu Zhesen's first speech.
