Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 905 Let the living be happy

The title of the book "Evil Hypnotist" tells readers that these two cases are related to hypnosis.

Duan Qiao went to the bookstore early in the morning to buy a copy of "Evil Hypnotist".

When Zhang Chong was still posting works on Jidang Literature, Duan Qiao was Zhang Zhong's editor in charge, and every time Zhang Chong had a new book, Duan Qiao could preview it.

Later, Zhang Zhong's works were only released exclusively on Zero Zero One's Chinese website, and Duan Qiao lost this benefit.

But now every time Zhang republishes a new book, he will definitely go to the bookstore to buy a copy as soon as possible.

Because of today's rest, Duan Qiao has enough time to spend on this book.

After reading the previous two cases, Duan Qiao felt a little surprised, because this novel is very different from Zhang Zhong's previous detective novels.

In Zhang Zhong's previous detective novels, the plots were all very real, and the cases were all very normal killing methods.

But in this novel, it looks very magical. Even when reading the first case, Duan Qiao felt like he was reading some kind of supernatural novel.

Will there be mysterious power in the novel?

After reading the two cases, Duan Qiao was still not sure about this matter.

Because in his impression, hypnosis should not be able to achieve this effect, at least he has never seen any hypnotist so powerful.

In addition to these cases, there are many descriptions of hypnosis in the book.

For example, when Luo Fei and the others went to a very powerful local hypnotist, a young criminal policeman didn't believe in that hypnotist very much, he didn't even believe in hypnosis.

In fact, Duan Qiao felt that the young criminal policeman said what he wanted to say, and he didn't believe that the hypnotist could do those miraculous things.

But soon, the young detective's view changed 180 degrees.

The hypnotist they visited hypnotized the policeman with just one movement.

This hypnosis does not mean to put the policeman to sleep, nor does it control his mind, but to make him forget his own name through an action.

This is a very miraculous thing, but when Duan Qiao saw this paragraph, he began to believe it.

Because this paragraph is quite true, sometimes he himself will suddenly forget some important things, such as his own name.

He remembered that once when he was reviewing a manuscript, a colleague came over and asked him to go out for dinner for a while and asked him to think about what he wanted to eat.

Just when he was thinking about what to eat, another colleague came over and suddenly asked him what his name was, but it took him more than ten seconds to remember what his name was.

At that time, the colleague was also very surprised, thinking that Duan Qiao was deliberately teasing him.

In fact, in that matter, Duan Qiao was not the only one who was confused. The one who asked his name was also a little confused, because the colleague knew him very well, so of course he knew his name.

But it was because the company needed to fill out an application form, so he came over to ask Duan Qiao's name in a daze.

Later, when Duan Qiao recalled this incident, he also analyzed it. There were two reasons why he couldn't remember his name at that time.

The first reason is that the previous colleague invited him out for dinner, and his mind was full of thoughts about what to eat later, and his attention was all on the food.

The second reason is that the colleague who asked his name knew him very well, so it was impossible for the colleague to ask his name under normal circumstances, and he didn't react for a while.

Later, he also teased his girlfriend, and he suddenly asked his girlfriend's name, which made her think for a while before she remembered it.

Of course, that matter also made his girlfriend complain about him for a long time.

Because of these things, Duan Qiao empathizes with the plot described in the book. He understands the feeling of suddenly not being able to remember his name.

This book also has a little easter egg, Duan Qiao was surprised and delighted when he saw the easter egg.

When Luo Fei and the others went to visit a psychological counselor, they unexpectedly met another criminal policeman who was also investigating the case, and the name of this criminal policeman was Qin Lang.

As a fan of Zhang Zhong, he will never forget the name Qin Lang.

"Blind Spot 2" was released not long ago, Duan Qiao can still remember the plot in "Blind Spot 2".

When reading "Blind Spot 2" before, readers were still talking about Tang Chuanxue and Langdon appearing in the book, but they didn't expect Qin Lang to appear in the new book "Evil Hypnotist" now.

It's a pity that Qin Lang's role in the new book is very minimal, there is only one simple meeting, Luo Fei and Qin Lang have a brief chat, and then Luo Fei tells his subordinates about Qin Lang.

However, from the chat between Luo Fei and Qin Lang and the conversation between Luo Fei and his subordinates, we can see the general story line. At this time, Qin Lang had just handled the Zhou Yuan case, and the following cult case had not yet happened.

It's a pity, if Qin Lang can investigate the case with Luo Fei, it will definitely be very interesting.

With the development of the story, the grievances and grudges among the hypnotists gradually surfaced. When Bai Yaxing died, Duan Qiao even thought for a while that the story was over.

But it turns out that things are not that simple, and the black hand behind the scenes still hasn't appeared.

Later, Luo Fei became suspicious of Ling Mingding, and Duan Qiao also had some doubts about him.

Then the story took a big turn, and Xia Mengyao, who seemed harmless to humans and animals, turned out to be the mastermind behind the scenes.

At this time, Xia Mengyao was preparing for a show, and she was going to perform a hypnosis show.

This performance, if the effect is satisfactory, will face as many as [-] million viewers.

When the performance was over, when Luo Fei found Ling Mingding with a recording, Duan Qiao was startled by what Luo Fei said next.

It turned out that the reason why Xia Mengyao made this performance was not because she wanted to become famous, but because she wanted to perform a group hypnosis through this performance and induce those unhappy people to commit suicide.

"Let the living be happy."

This is Xia Mengyao's wish.

At first glance, there seems to be no problem with this sentence, just like wishing lovers will eventually get married.

But if you think about it carefully, let the living people be happy, or let the unhappy people die.

That's what Xia Mengyao used.

She hopes that through hypnosis, those who are disappointed in life will commit suicide, free them from pain, realize reincarnation, and move towards a new beginning.

If she succeeds, maybe 1000 million people will kill themselves.

Such a terrifying plan made Duan Qiao break out in a cold sweat while reading a book.

He really couldn't connect such a murder plan with the beautiful and friendly Xia Mengyao, especially the sentence "Let the living be happy" that sounded so warm before, turned out to be so terrifying.
