The girl has a delicate face, long hair hanging down her waist, and a pair of clear and bright red eyes.
Seeing everyone looking at her, the girl smiled shyly and seemed a little embarrassed to continue.
"Go on." Gu Nanfeng encouraged with a smile.
The long-haired girl adjusted her thoughts and continued: "I think gods exist and are around us all the time, but we can't see or touch them. But these gods exist based on human beliefs. As long as there are people If you believe, they will exist, and even just one person can produce the power of faith.”
"You mean, everything can become a god? As long as someone believes in it?" Zhou Wensheng couldn't help it anymore.
In his opinion, such a discussion is simply a large-scale feudal superstition exchange meeting.
"You don't have to believe it, but you can't completely deny it." Faced with Zhou Wensheng's oppressive questioning, the long-haired girl didn't show any anger. Instead, she looked at Zhou Wensheng with a smile on her face, "For example, you can't see the air, but the air is real. Existence, for example, you do not believe in extraterrestrial civilization, but you cannot prove the non-existence of extraterrestrial civilization. God originates from human belief and also relies on human belief. The more people believe in it, the stronger the power of god. But people who don’t believe in these forces cannot come into contact with them, so they won’t admit their existence.”
The long-haired girl's words made Zhou Wensheng feel stuck in his throat. He wanted to refute, but he didn't know where to start.
"We stand for freedom of speech and freedom of belief. It is precisely because of this that the discussion class will be held in the reporting hall instead of the classroom." Gu Nanfeng smiled and helped Zhou Wensheng.
"If you have your own opinions, you are free to speak." Seeing that Zhou Wensheng remained silent, Gu Nanfeng generously invited him.
"No, thank you Teacher Gu for your kindness," Zhou Wensheng declined Gu Nanfeng's invitation, "I am a staunch atheist. I will not participate in your discussion. After class, I still have some personal questions that I would like to ask Teacher Gu. I will Baimei Villa is waiting for you." After saying that, Zhou Wensheng stood up, opened the door and left the classroom.
"Check Gu Nanfeng." Zhou Wensheng walked to the elevator, took out his mobile phone, and dialed Wang Bin's number.
Putting the phone away, Zhou Wen Sheng turned around and looked at the elegant, easy-going, young and sunny Gu Nanfeng in the report hall. Zhou Wen Sheng always felt that something was not right about the confrontation with him just now.
But what exactly was wrong, Zhou Wensheng couldn't tell for a while.
…………
"Police officers, you've been waiting for a long time." About two hours later, Gu Nanfeng arrived at Baimei Villa and greeted Zhou Wensheng and Wang Bin with a smile.
"I bought our school's special drink on the way here. Let the two police officers try it." As he said that, Gu Nanfeng placed two cups of light pink drinks in front of the two of them.
The setting sun in the evening illuminated half of the sky blood red. Gu Nanfeng leaned against the floor-to-ceiling window, letting the setting sun envelope him.
The moment Zhou Wensheng took the drink, a bolt of lightning flashed through his mind.
Gu Nanfeng also had an identical drink in his hand!
And I drank half of it!
In other words, Gu Nanfeng bought three cups in total!
No more, no less, one cup per person!
How did he know he was going to be facing two police officers!
Thinking of this, and then thinking of the discussion not long ago about whether there are gods in the world, Zhou Wensheng only felt wet and cold on his back.
"Teacher Gu looks very young." Although Zhou Wensheng was extremely shocked, his face remained as calm as water.
"Yes, many people say that." Gu Nanfeng smiled and took a sip of the drink in his hand.
Slender and clean fingers caressed the frosted translucent cup wall, making a faint rustling sound.
"How old is Teacher Gu this year?" Zhou Wensheng opened the drink and took a sip. It was cold, sour and sweet. After one sip, he felt comfortable all over.
"I..." Gu Nanfeng chuckled, glanced at Zhou Wensheng playfully, and said, "I am 36 this year."
"36?" Wang Bin's recording hand froze for a moment, and he looked at Gu Nanfeng in disbelief.
No matter how Wang Bin looked at the face in front of him, he could not see any traces of time.
"Teacher Gu's skin is really well maintained," Wang Bin exclaimed sincerely. "Unlike us, who have rough skin and thick flesh. We are obviously in our early twenties, but we look like we are forty or fifty years old."
"How can it be the same?" Gu Nanfeng stroked the wall of the cup and said seriously, "You guys run out to investigate cases every day, and you are exposed to the wind and sun. In addition to going to class every day, I provide psychological counseling to patients, and I am almost always indoors. Naturally, It’s incomparable.”
"Providing psychological counseling to patients?" Zhou Wensheng took over.
"Yes, I opened a psychological consultation room."
"Can university teachers open consulting rooms to do business outside?" Zhou Wensheng asked curiously.
"Of course not for those who are on staff." Gu Nanfeng smiled, "I am an external unstaffed lecturer. I only get some tuition fees from school every month. If I don't do some side business to generate income, then I will go hungry. Yeah." Gu Nanfeng stroked the side of the cup and joked.
"Oh, then wouldn't the consultation room be closed when you are in class at school?" Zhou Wensheng took a sip of his drink and glanced at Gu Nanfeng as if nothing had happened.
"Of course we can't close the door." Gu Nanfeng met Zhou Wensheng's eyes openly, "There is a student in the school who has a good relationship with me, and her grades in psychology are also quite good, so when I am in class at school, it is her Helping me take care of the consulting room."
"Oh? A student who can be recognized by Teacher Gu must be very outstanding." Zhou Wensheng put the drink on the table and leaned back.
"Excellent!" Gu Nanfeng rubbed the side of the cup and affirmed without thinking, then paused, "It's just..."
"What's wrong?" Zhou Wensheng's brows wrinkled quickly and imperceptibly.
"I don't know why, but I haven't seen her for many days. Can the officer help me look for her?" Gu Nanfeng leaned forward, holding the drink cup in his hand, and stroked the wall of the cup with his two thumbs in turn. His eyes looked straight at Zhou Wensheng.
Zhou Wensheng was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled and said: "I haven't seen him for many days. Maybe there is something wrong at home?"
"We're leaving without saying goodbye." Gu Nanfeng propped his chin on the table with one hand, while gently squeezing the drink cup with the other hand. The eyes looking at Zhou Wensheng were filled with various emotions, but upon closer inspection, they were as calm as lake water.
"Then why didn't you report the crime?" Wang Bin, who was immersed in recording, asked without raising his head.
Wang Bin's words broke the invisible game between the two.
Hearing this, the corners of Gu Nanfeng's mouth slightly raised, and he sighed softly, but his eyes did not leave Zhou Wensheng's eyes, and said: "I also received a call from a patient early this morning, asking me why the consultation room has been closed for several days in a row. The door was not opened, maybe the place had been changed. Only then did I know that she left without saying goodbye."
Gu Nanfeng paused, kneaded the cup and continued: "What a coincidence, I wanted to report the crime after class today, but unexpectedly a police officer came to my class. Why don't I ask you to help me find it."
Gu Nanfeng's tone was relaxed and cheerful, without any worry, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
Or maybe he did it on purpose.
For some reason, Zhou Wensheng felt vaguely like he was being teased.
"What is the name of the missing student?"
"Zheng Yu."
A smile flashed across the corner of Gu Nanfeng's mouth very quickly.
