Chapter 9 Sang in the Clouds (1)
The next morning, Shen Yue and Kang Ruxin drove to Fenhe again, but this time they did not go to Ten Mile Beach.After getting off the expressway from Fenhe, Shen Yue ordered Kang Ruxin to turn back to the provincial capital immediately.Kang Ruxin knew Shen Yue's purpose, and she maintained a very good speed, basically the same speed as Teng Dawei was driving at that time.

When the police car entered the tunnel and gradually approached the scene of the car accident, Shen Yue stared at the front and the sides of the expressway at the same time.

Kang Ruxin drove past that place, and Shen Yue murmured: "Strange..." Kang Ruxin asked: "What did Dr. Shen find?" Shen Yue said to himself: "There seems to be nothing unusual. Ah. Why did Teng Dawei step on the brakes suddenly? No! Maybe the situation at that time was different..." Kang Ruxin said: "We have watched the surveillance video at that time many times, and we did not find anything unusual. The surveillance video The display on the screen showed that the Mercedes-Benz stopped suddenly, and the big truck behind it hit it after a few seconds."

Shen Yue said: "Go back. I want to see the surveillance video at that time." The Criminal Police Corps has a set of advanced playback equipment, which can enlarge or reduce the image at will during the playback process. Not only is the definition very high, but also according to needs. A computer analyzes each frame of the image.

Shen Yue first looked at the whole process of the car accident, and found nothing abnormal.During the second playback, he began to slow forward and adjust the clarity of the image... The Mercedes-Benz car stopped suddenly while driving normally, and the truck behind it directly hit it.Shen Yue moved the screen back a short distance, enlarged the image, and enlarged it until only Teng Dawei's face appeared on the screen... Normal expression, normal expression... His eyes suddenly widened, and his facial expression instantly changed to horror.

Rewind again and zoom in to the area of ​​Teng Dawei's eyes.His eyes were looking forward... He glanced to the right... His eyes returned to the front... His pupils suddenly dilated.

Next, Shen Yue compared the zoomed-in picture with the panoramic image, and he found that Teng Dawei's rightward glance was looking at the rearview mirror, which was a normal driver's operating habit and seemed to have nothing to do with the next car accident.Then compare Teng Dawei's shocked expression and the moment his pupils dilated to the front and sides of the Mercedes-Benz car, zoom in, zoom in bit by bit... Shen Yue stared at the screen.

Kang Ruxin sat by the side and watched Shen Yue operate, feeling very strange: What is he looking for?
Shen Yue went through this process three times in a row, and then all the pictures were frozen at the moment of the car accident. He sat there blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.Kang Ruxin didn't dare to disturb him, and stayed quietly beside him, looking at the screen for a while, and Shen Yue's face for a while.

After a while like this, Kang Ruxin heard Shen Yue talking to himself: "There doesn't seem to be anything unusual... What did he see at that moment? It seems that there is only one possibility gone."

Only then did Kang Ruxin ask: "Is it now certain that Teng Dawei has been hypnotized?" Shen Yue nodded, and said in a deep voice: "This seems to be the only possibility. The problem is, the hypnotized person who inspired Teng Dawei What exactly is the point?" Kang Ruxin said: "We have investigated, and during the time period before Kan Stone's car accident, neither Kan Stone nor Teng Dawei's mobile phone had any incoming or outgoing calls, and Kan Sitong doesn't like listening to music, so there is no music disc in the car. At that time, the Mercedes-Benz was on the overtaking lane, and there was no overtaking on the driving lane."

This is understandable.Kan Sitong suffers from depression and is very sensitive to sound. Perhaps music is also a kind of noise for him.Shen Yue stood up, rubbed his temples, and said: "There must be something exciting, but we don't know it yet. Officer Kang, I hope your police can investigate those people who know hypnotism in the provincial capital as soon as possible, and say It’s not going to pay off.”

Kang Ruxin said in embarrassment: "The Long Corps is arranging people to handle this matter, but it may be difficult to investigate this matter. At most, we can only investigate the situation of the provincial capital and some cities around the provincial capital."

Shen Yue smiled and said: "Officer Kang, maybe you don't know much about this situation. Hypnotists are also practitioners of psychotherapy. Now most people in our country are not used to seeing a psychologist, so practitioners don't know much about it. There will be too many. You should send someone directly to a certain department of the Provincial Health Department to ask, and you should be able to get a list of practitioners soon, and then investigate those people one by one. "

Kang Ruxin was very pleasantly surprised: "Yeah, why didn't I think of it?" She picked up the phone and walked to the side: "I'll call Dragon Corps right away."

Looking at Kang Ruxin's back, Shen Yue said in a low voice: "I hope the investigation by the police can be fruitful, otherwise things will become more troublesome. The trigger point, what is the trigger point?" ?”

When Kang Ruxin came back, she found that Shen Yue was staring blankly at the picture on the screen, so she asked softly, "Did you find anything?"

Shen Yue shook his head slightly.Kang Ruxin said softly: "Don't worry. Look, it's lunch time, how about I treat you to dinner?" Shen Yue looked at the time, got up and said, "I'd better go home and eat." Kang Ru Xin looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "I've been wanting to ask you, I heard that your wife and children are... sorry, I think we should get to know each other better, so that it will benefit our future Work is more beneficial.”

Shen Yue's heart was stung, and his lips were tightly closed.Kang Ruxin saw a kind of deep melancholy from his expression and eyes, and was shocked in an instant: it turns out that a melancholy man is so charming. This kind of different charm really makes people feel heartbroken.She said "I'm sorry" softly.

Only then did Shen Yue wake up from the pain just now, and said, "It's nothing, those things are over."

Kang Ruxin asked softly: "What happened to the bombing in the American subway? Can you tell me?"

Her beautiful voice exuded feminine tenderness, and also carried a kind of curious pleading, which made Shen Yue hard to refuse: "That incident was just a coincidence, but it completely changed my whole life..."

Shen Yue's voice was full of suffocating melancholy, which sounded calm but made Kang Ruxin feel breathless.He finished talking without shedding tears, but sadness had already spread all over his face.Kang Ruxin cried uncontrollably beside her.

Her crying made Shen Yue relieved from the sadness, and said with a wry smile: "Look at you, you have to ask me about this matter."

Kang Ruxin hurriedly wiped away her tears, looked at him with gloomy eyes, and said, "Now I finally understand why you deliberately keep a distance from me."

Shen Yue didn't speak.Kang Ruxin was still looking at him, and said softly: "Actually, you are keeping a distance from me on purpose, isn't it? Because you are afraid." Shen Yue said with a wry smile: "You think too much. Officer Kang , I’m tired, I’ll contact you if I have anything to do later.” Suddenly, a trace of inexplicable sorrow rose in Kang Ruxin’s heart, she sighed and said, “Okay, you go back to rest earlier…” Shen Yue walked outside However, Kang Ruxin suddenly stopped him: "Wait a minute." She took out a box from her satchel: "This is a gift from me, I hope you don't refuse." Shen Yue looked at the box in her hand. He frowned and said, "Mobile phone?" Kang Ruxin smiled at him, and said, "I've consulted the Dragon Corps for instructions. This thing is for your future work convenience, and it can be reimbursed."

Shen Yue hesitated for a moment, took the box, said "thank you" and left.

A year ago, at a subway station in San Francisco, USA, at 5 p.m.An ordinary-looking Asian man in the bustling crowd suddenly stopped in his tracks. He glanced in the direction of the subway waiting, then turned and ran towards a patrolling policeman ten meters away.

"Mr. Police Officer, I suspect that someone is carrying explosives and is likely to attack this train." The Asian man said quickly.Because of running and nervousness, his voice was a little hurried, panting, and at the same time he couldn't help turning around and looking in the direction of the waiting car.

The policeman was surprised and asked, "Excuse me, who are you?" The Asian man took out his ID card: "My name is Shen Yue, and I am a special assistant at the Wilson Institute for Psychology."

The Wilson Institute of Psychology is well-known. It has assisted the FBI, CIA, and the police to investigate and crack countless vicious cases. Even ordinary police officers have long been famous.At this time, the subway was entering the station, and the people waiting for the train had already lined up in two lines to get on the train. Shen Yue pointed at one of the men in a light yellow jacket and carrying a small travel bag, and said, "That's the man, stop him from getting on the train right now." car!"

Shen Yue briefly told the police about the abnormal situation of that person, and the policeman ran towards that person without hesitation.

And at this moment, that person seemed to feel something suddenly. He looked in the direction of Shen Yue, dropped his travel bag suddenly, and ran towards the outside of the station.

The police found explosives in the backpack dropped by the man, which was a specially made super explosive that could evade security checks.It is a pity that the suspect managed to get rid of the police's pursuit.

One month later, one late night, Shen Yue was awakened by a piercing ringing of the phone, he picked up the phone in a daze and answered: "Dr. Shen, you can save those people on the subway, but you can't save your ex-wife and daughter." ..."

Terrifying laughter resounded through the entire space where Shen Yue was, and suddenly the face with the bushy beard he had seen at the subway station a month ago appeared in his mind, as well as the face of the man before he dropped the travel bag. The venomous eyes that looked at him for a moment.The chill penetrated his whole body, as if he was in the coldest winter in San Francisco.

Driving all the way, not far from the terrifying sea of ​​fire, Shen Yue suddenly collapsed on the ground.He seemed to hear his daughter's cry for help coming from the blood-red flames: "Father, help me..."

A few days later, in front of the tombstone of his ex-wife and daughter, Shen Yue, who had just stood up, heard the characteristic hoarse voice of his mentor from behind: "Decided?"

Without turning around, he looked at the tombstones neatly arranged in a large green field in front of him, nodded and said, "Yes."

"Are you sure you don't want to escape?" Shen Yue turned around slowly, looked at the mentor in front of him, shook his head and said: "I have nothing here. I want to go home, there is my mother, she is old "The instructor sighed: "Okay. You are my best student. Although I am reluctant to leave you, I understand your choice." Shen Yue was moved in his heart.The person in front of him is the famous Wilson, one of the most famous psychologists of our time. Seven years ago, 7-year-old Shen Yue came to this country from China and was lucky to become his student. Later, he joined the Wilson Institute of Psychology, where he met Anna and married her.Later, after numerous quarrels, his marriage to Anna broke down, and he lost custody of his daughter at the same time.At this time, Shen Yue seemed to feel that these 25 years were like a dream, illusory and ethereal, and only after waking up did he find that everything had returned to the original point.The only difference is that the mentor in front of me and what I have learned in the past 7 years are true.

The instructor in front of him had gray hair as usual, a gentle smile on his face that hadn't been shaved for several days, and his eyes were still so bright.He was like this when Shen Yue first met him, and later he learned that his mentor had been single for many years.

The instructor patted Shen Yue on the shoulder and said, "Let's go."

The two were walking in the cemetery, and the instructor asked, "Do you remember what I told you when we first met?"

Shen Yue nodded and said: "The teacher said, to become your student, you must first be prepared to lose everything. I didn't understand it at the time, but now I finally understand it."

Looking at a group of white doves flying across the blue sky in the distance of the cemetery, the instructor said: "I study the most practical discipline of psychology. What I explore is the most real spiritual space of human beings. What I touch is the kindest and most beautiful human beings. The most evil nature. From the first time I saw you, I felt that you are a true scholar, like me, and extremely gifted. People like us are more likely to become obsessed with the space we study, Whether it is family members or colleagues, they are completely transparent in our eyes. They have no privacy in front of us. Maybe we are like devils in their eyes. Therefore, it is our kind of people who lose them Fate is an inevitability."

Shen Yue recalled his married life in the past few years, and it was indeed as the instructor said.He sighed and said: "Yes. But I don't regret it. Being your student was my biggest dream back then. It's a pity that I was too stupid. At that time, I should have thought that person would retaliate, but why did I ignore it? Did you see the look in that person's eyes before he fled? I'm sorry for Anna, and I'm sorry for my child."

The instructor shook his head and said, "No, you are my best student. When I was your age, I was far inferior to you. We are human beings, not gods, and we can all make mistakes. As I said, all of this is fate, None of us can escape this fate." He turned to look at Shen Yue, then pointed to his face, and said, "What did you see on my face?"

Shen Yue's eyes sparkled for a moment, but quickly dimmed: "Teacher, you are old." The instructor shrugged and smiled, "Yes, I am old. The oxygen on this planet makes us grow from children to middle age, then oxygen begins to corrode our bodies, aging us gradually, our skin slowly sags and sags under the gravity of the earth. We will all eventually return to dust and become one with this planet. My wife left home After running away, I died in a car accident. The pain and guilt made me lose my wisdom, become stupid and fatuous. During that time, I continuously made wrong judgments, put innocent people in jail, and allowed the real murderer to go unpunished. Later I I understand that love and family are actually a luxury for people like us."

Shen Yue knew about his mentor's past. At this time, Shen Yue didn't hear indifference from his hoarse voice, but really felt a kind of helplessness.The instructor is right, maybe this is a kind of fate.The mentor looked at Shen Yue with a rare kindness in his eyes.He asked: "Tell me, what do you want to do when you go back?" Shen Yue looked towards the distant sky, and the group of white pigeons that passed by just now had long disappeared, and a few white clouds were floating in the sky, making the transparent and clean sky more A trace of anger.Shen Yue's expression looked a bit depressed, his eyes were full of loneliness, he sighed and said: "I just want to go back and spend time with my mother, she is getting old..."

The instructor smiled slightly and said: "That's fine. Go back and rest for a while. When you want to come back, or if you need any help in China, you can contact me at any time. Shen, you are a real scholar, you can't escape of."

Shen Yue said indifferently: "Now I just need a peaceful life." The mentor shrugged and whispered: "You can't escape..."

The pain deep in Shen Yue's heart was awakened again by Kang Ruxin's curiosity.The long queue of traffic in front of him and the dense flow of people on both sides of the road made him feel like he was in a city in a foreign country.In the subway of that city, the man with a backpack and a jacket looked a little different among the dense crowd: he was not anxiously waiting for the arrival of the subway like the others, and his hands were tightly held Holding the straps of his backpack, he looked around, as if he was looking for something.When he looked at the people around him, there was a hint of contempt at the corner of his mouth, and the muscles on his cheekbones couldn't help trembling. It was a strange excitement... The policeman ran towards him, and the man turned to look at Shen Yue, throwing Gave him a venomous look.And that terrible fire.
