Zhong Feng smiled and said, "Is there anyone as narcissistic as you?"
I smiled and said: "This is a kind of self-confidence. Today I was talking to Tong Yao about self-confidence. Confidence is the fundamental reason for a person's success."
Tong Yao started coughing immediately. I looked at her and immediately felt that she seemed to be stopping me from continuing to talk about this topic, so I hurriedly shut up.
But Xia Zhi was aroused by me to talk, and he immediately said: "Mayor Feng is so right. I am..."
At this time Zhong Feng interrupted him immediately, "Okay, stop talking. They are talking about things here, let's avoid it."
Xia Zhi glanced at me, and I hurriedly said: "It's okay. It won't affect you."
Zhong Feng went to grab Xia Zhi and said, "Let's go, he will come often from now on. By the way, Feng Xiao, let's talk about what I told you on the phone today later. You are busy today."
I was stunned for a moment: What did she say to me on the phone? But I suddenly realized: she was talking about our going to the hotel to book a room tonight.
She must have misunderstood my relationship with Tong Yao. This was obvious. But I couldn't say anything more, and Xia Zhi had already been pulled up by her and was about to leave.
Xia Zhi said politely to me and Tong Yao: "Then, you two, eat slowly. Come here often. Call me anytime when you come. I have my number."
I stood up quickly and smiled at him and said, "Okay. I will definitely call you when I come here from now on."
But Zhong Feng went to give him a hand again, "Let's go, where did all this nonsense come from?!"
They left immediately. Tong Yao looked at me, "Feng Xiao, this boss Zhong seems to be jealous of me."
I hurriedly said: "How is that possible? It seems to me that this writer really likes her. You see, he is such an arrogant person, but he is so obedient to Zhong Feng."
In fact, Tong Yao didn't know that I felt sour when I said this.
Tong Yao nodded and smiled: "It seems true."
I suddenly remembered something, and then asked her: "Actually, you don't want them to be here, right?"
My reasoning is very simple, because just now she didn't say that she wanted Zhong Feng and Xia Zhi to stay. She didn't even say a polite word of condolence. Perhaps it was because of this that Zhong Feng suddenly realized that she and Xia Zhi had to leave, and at the same time, she also
I misunderstood my relationship with Tong Yao.
Tong Yao's face suddenly turned red, "I mainly want to discuss the case with you today, and I don't want to be disturbed by others."
I sighed in my heart: She was too purposeful. In fact, in a place like this and on a night like this, it wouldn't be bad for the four of us to have a casual chat together.
But I understand her feelings. Now that she has no job, she is always thinking about that case. In any case, Tong Yangxi's death is inevitably related to her original arrangement, so in her heart
The guilt and uneasiness inside were understandable. I said to her softly: "That's okay. Let's study it slowly while eating."
She raised her glass to me and said, "Feng Xiao, come on, let me toast you a glass. I hope that after you have a few drinks, it will inspire you."
After that, we stopped talking, because my thoughts had gone back to the past, to that night. But Tong Yao didn't want to disturb my thoughts, so we immediately ate and drank together in silence.
I remember what happened that night clearly.
At that time, Sun Lulu was working in my company. She was in charge of the old city renovation project in the city where Lin Yu once served as the municipal party secretary, and Tong Yangxi happened to be the manager of Lin Yi's cement factory there. The two of them
From getting to know each other, falling in love, and then getting married.
That day, I went to Sun Lulu's place to check the company's operation, and then invited her and Tong Yangxi to have dinner together. I remember that there were other people attending the dinner. After dinner, I drove back to the provincial capital, and Sun Lulu said that she
She wanted to hitchhike back with me. Then I sent her to her mother, and then I went home. And then... But what happened after that is what I heard - it is said
It was Sun Lulu who suddenly saw a piece of clothing falling from upstairs at her mother's place. Then she suddenly remembered that there were clothes to be washed in the washing machine at home, so she hurried back home.
After she finished washing her clothes and went to bed, Tong Yangxi went home.
The reason why Tong Yangxi returned home was also guessed by us later. We estimated that Tong Yangxi knew about my previous relationship with Sun Lulu, so he felt a little uneasy when he saw me and Sun Lulu returning to the provincial capital that day, so he went to the provincial capital in the middle of the night.
It's time to return home.
Then the tragedy happened.
My mind flashed to the terrifying scene where Sun Lulu woke up in the middle of the night and suddenly saw a stranger in front of her. She was terrified, then resisted, and then used a kitchen knife. What does this mean? It means that she clearly felt herself at that time.
life was threatened.
"Stranger..." I murmured.
Then I heard Tong Yao asking me: "What stranger?"
I thought about it and said: "Tong Yao, do you think about this possibility? In fact, the person who entered Sun Lulu's room was not Tong Yangxi at all, but someone else. No... this is not
No. Sun Lulu accidentally hurt someone and immediately found out that it was Tong Yangxi. Then, there can only be one situation. Tong Yangxi wanted to make a joke with Sun Lulu, but Sun Lulu accidentally hurt him. As you said
In this case, the matter is very simple, and there may not be any conspiracy or murder. This is a friendly fire."
She shook her head slightly.
I looked at her and said, "Tong Yao, I understand your feelings, because you have never been able to accept such a result in your heart, so you always think it was a murder."
She was still shaking her head, "Feng Xiao, things are not as simple as you think. You know that when I asked Tong Yangxi to join the Jiangnan Group, I wanted him to investigate the case many years ago, but he ended up like that.
Dead. Do you think this matter was so coincidental and simple?" Then she said with a sad expression: "If you want to blame me, I can only blame myself for being too incompetent, because I can't find out the truth of the case and avenge him.
.Why......"
I comforted her and said: "Tong Yao, the police profession is inherently a high-risk profession. I recently read a report that about four hundred police officers die in the line of duty in our country every year. Of course, the main ones are anti-narcotics police and criminal police. Tong Yao,
In fact, it doesn’t matter if you are not a police officer now, I hope you can be safe, this is the best thing."
She sighed softly and said: "Feng Xiao, you are right. The police is not only a profession, but also a responsibility and mission. In fact, the police is the most special profession: except for soldiers during the war,
The police are the group that cannot avoid the dangers they face. Combating criminal crimes and maintaining social order are the eternal responsibilities of the police. The police are not only high-risk, but also "high-pressure". This high-pressure first comes from the high-risk profession itself
, comes from high-intensity work. At present, the ratio of urban police force to urban population in our country is one to three hundred in Western countries on average, while in some places in our country it is one to one thousand and two. Due to the serious shortage of police force, they work overtime and are overloaded.
, is the norm in police work. Secondly, it comes from a high sense of responsibility for social security. In addition, the psychological pressure cannot be ignored. The police are more exposed to the dark side of society. Psychological research shows that among all emergency occupations, the police bear the most
The psychological stress index of
Important people carry a lifetime. They take it easy when in danger, and remain calm in the face of danger. They may not have any rhetoric, but their responsibilities have turned into silent dedication in their daily duties. "Ordinary yet great" is a true portrayal of this industry. Every public security policeman has made selfless dedication.
Behind the scenes, there are families who make selfless sacrifices. The burden that the family members of the public security police, especially the police wives, have to bear is too heavy, too heavy, and the sacrifices they have to make are too many. So, being a police wife or
Husbands need courage, especially the family members of drug police officers and criminal police officers. Every time a major case occurs, they spend their time in uneasiness and extreme worry. Feng Xiao, you don’t have this personal experience.
In fact, you can't really understand many of the real conditions in this industry. Anyone who has not personally experienced this profession will never be able to truly feel the hardship and pain of this profession. In fact, this is not the degeneration of some police officers.
What's the reason for the deterioration? Police are also human beings. They pay so much and get so little. It's strange that they can be mentally balanced. Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Anyway, I am no longer a policeman. Hey, it's really strange.
, I still can’t let go of my former career.”
I looked at the wine and food on the table, "Tong Yao, do you need to order more food and wine? We'll add more if necessary."
She shook her head, "No, let's go for a walk. By the way, Feng Xiao, you said before that Sun Lulu might have been hypnotized. I've been thinking about it. Maybe your idea is the only way to explain this case.
Maybe. But you should know that hypnosis requires environment and time, and hypnosis requires the cooperation of the person being hypnotized. Sun Lulu is an adult, how could she be willing to be hypnotized?"
I said: "That's not necessarily true. A person is most easily hypnotized in a state of light sleep. For example, when we dream...dreaming can only occur in a state of light sleep.
Because the cerebral cortex is still active in a state of light sleep, dreams will appear at this time. When we are dreaming, if our subjective consciousness knows that we are dreaming, we can use our own psychological suggestions to make it happen.
Dreams develop towards the plot that we want. For example, we sometimes have a beautiful dream. When we wake up, we feel that it is a pity that the dream has not been completed, and then continue to sleep. At the same time, just before falling asleep, we say to ourselves, I hope this dream will be beautiful.
Continue. Then, this beautiful dream may really continue. Unless you enter deep sleep all of a sudden, because dreams will not occur in deep sleep."
She shook her head and said, "I don't quite understand what you're talking about. You're too professional. Feng Xiao, you mean to say that people are most easily hypnotized in a state of light sleep, right?"
I nodded and said with some embarrassment: "Sorry, Tong Yao, I made the problem too complicated. Let me give you another example. For example, when a person is talking in his sleep, if someone picks him up, then he will
Answer. But after he woke up, he didn't remember the incident at all. This is actually a kind of hypnosis."
She nodded, "I understand when you put it this way. Feng Xiao, so your idea is feasible. Let's order more food and drinks, and let's study the case again. But, why do you call this place a waiter?"
I smiled slightly and said, "Didn't you notice there is a call button under the table? Zhong Feng used this mechanism just now."
She immediately asked me: "Where?"
I turned sideways to look at the seat in front of Zhong Feng, and then pressed the button. Not long after, a beautiful girl floated over.
I asked her to bring us some more snacks and a bottle of wine.
The girl smiled and nodded before drifting away. (To be continued)
