Just when some people couldn't sleep because of Shen Yan's ability, he was already lying on the bed in the temporary guest house of the Special Affairs Bureau and fell asleep.

Shen Yan is a happy-go-lucky person. From the time he can remember, he has not lived in human society for a long time.

Without relatives and friends, no one will have inexplicable expectations for him. In terms of quality of life, there is neither pressure nor desire, and a person will appear particularly heartless.

Before, he wanted to find a better house for the sake of his customers, but now that the newly rented house was in ruins and his salary was not enough to rent a house at a normal price, he was no longer so eager.

After sleeping in the guest house for one night and paying forty yuan for the room, Ana Shen contacted the landlord who originally rented the garage to him.

Fortunately, not long after he moved out, the garage was still empty.

Ana Shen chatted with the landlord for a few words, and then rented the garage again at the previous price of four hundred yuan a month.

Just as Shen Yan was rearranging the room, he suddenly received a message on his AP bracelet——

"Good doctor reminds you that you have a new consultation appointment, please pay attention."

Ana Shen put down the half-covered bed sheets, turned on the AP bracelet, and found that a consultation appointment was pushed to the APP where she had placed orders before.

"Mr. Zhang... clinical symptoms: depressed mood, slow thinking, decreased volitional activity, suspected of depression."

Ana Shen looked at the patient information on the order and muttered: "The appointment time is June 25, 3 p.m.... this afternoon?"

This is the psychological consultation order Shen Yan placed on the Good Doctor APP before. For the Chen Gengnian case, Shen Yan deliberately beautified his personal resume with the help of the Special Affairs Bureau. Even the photos of the office were fake.

The patient placed an order through the previous link, and Ana Shen was a little dumbfounded.

Where can I find him an office space like the one in the photo?

After thinking about it, Ana Shen still dialed Bai Ye's phone number.

"I am Bai Ye."

Ana Shen: “I am a doctor.”

"……What's up?"

On the other end, Bai Ye's voice was cold, and there was a hint of inexplicable nervousness.

Ana Shen thought about the words and said, "Colonel Bai, I need to decorate the house again as when Chen Gengnian bought it."

The voice on the other end of the phone became obviously serious: "What went wrong? Is there a new realm?"

Ana Shen coughed and tried to sound normal: "No, it has nothing to do with the realm. It's just that I received a new consultation order."

"..."

There was sudden silence on the other side of the phone.

After a while, Bai Ye's voice sounded again: "Just...an ordinary consultation?"

Ana Shen replied: "Yes...I have optimized my resume before for Chen Gengnian's matter. I definitely have no problem with soft skills, but the office spaces in the previous information...I also wanted to move before." , but then we encountered a new realm incident, and the house was destroyed..."

At this point, Ana Shen heard a sudden sigh of relief on the other end of the phone: "I understand, send me your address, and the comrades from the Special Affairs Bureau will come over immediately."

Ana Shen said gratefully: "Hey, it's up to Colonel Bai to trouble me."

Since the other party has agreed, it means that the matter will be completed soon. After the last Chen Gengnian case, Ana Shen knew how convenient it was for these people to decorate.

After hanging up the phone, Ana Shen started to tidy up the bed while waiting for the arrival of colleagues from the Special Affairs Bureau.

"Back to the old place again?"

A black face of a clown emerged from Ana Shen's shoulder. After circling the narrow room, he returned to Ana Shen.

Ana Shen tidied the bed without looking up: "What else? If you don't find some side job to make more money, you won't even have a place to live."

The clown said sarcastically: "Worldly money means nothing to us."

Ana Shen: "It's okay if you don't eat, but I will starve to death if I don't eat."

Clown: "You can't feel the joy of normal people at all. You only need to maintain the most basic needs for survival. Wasting time on the pursuit of enjoyment is a blasphemy to life!"

Ana Shen made the bed and stretched: "It is precisely because I can't feel it that I should go deeper, otherwise I will almost forget that I am still a human being."

The monitors and cameras were destroyed in the house integrated into New City, and the clown seemed to be used to living in Shen Yan's shadow.

After waiting for about dozens of minutes, Ana Shen heard the honking of a car outside the door.

He walked to the door and saw two soldiers from the Special Affairs Bureau walking out of the car carrying a pendulum as tall as one person.

The soldier walked up to Ana Shen carrying the pendulum, beat his chest with one hand, and saluted: "Mr. Shen, I brought you the spiritual parasitic product you requested."

Ana Shen nodded: "Thank you."

Under Shen Yan's command, the two soldiers carried the clock to the garage rented by Shen Yan, and then withdrew.

Ana Shen stood in front of the clock alone, fiddling with the hands on the clock, and after turning it a few times, he adjusted it to the twelve o'clock position at noon.

As the pendulum began to swing again, a transparent ripple spread from the pendulum, filling the entire room like a wave of water.

In an instant, the narrow and dark garage room completely disappeared, and a European-style living room replaced the previous garage and appeared in front of everyone.

The brown leather sofa, the murals hanging on the walls, and even the ashtray on the coffee table are exactly the same as the room where Chen Gengnian was diagnosed.

Mr. Qian’s pendulum is a special spiritual sustenance item.

Its function is to record the scenery over a period of time and then reproduce it exactly.

And this re-creation is not just visual, it will interfere with mental fluctuations, making people who enter this scene fall into the illusion it creates in all aspects.

Previously, Shen Yan diagnosed Chen Gengnian in an abandoned and unfinished building, recreating this scene.

As for why the entrance looks so like a garage when the interior is so luxurious, Ana Shen doesn't think this is a big problem.

After all, psychiatrists who have been exposed to mental illness for a long time will inevitably have some special habits. I believe that their patients will not care about these details.

"Mr. Qian's clock will be left with me for now. I will report it to Colonel Bai in person. Thank you for your hard work."

After receiving Shen Yan's reply, the two soldiers from the Special Bureau did not stay too long, nor did they ask him what he wanted to do with this spiritual item. They happily got in the car and left.

Ana Shen sat alone on the sofa in the living room, drinking a cup of coffee with the illusion condensed by the big clock, and slowly waited for the arrival of his first patient.
