The second hand on the wall ticked regularly, and neither of the two people in the consulting room spoke but remained silent for a long time.
Finally he woke up and broke the silence.
"Okay, the story ends here. So Mr. Lin, your confusion now is that you dream about that woman every night and can't get a good rest, right?"
"It was not just a dream, the funeral was about to start, and she was urging me. I was afraid that she would take me away when the so-called funeral time came. And since I came back to that world, I can always see some There are things that others cannot see, and there are sounds that do not belong to this world. I feel like I am half dead now. Doctor Su! You must save me."
Su Xing turned to the side and typed on the keyboard beside him, and spoke half-jokingly.
"Mr. Lin, you paid to come to my place. Of course I will be responsible to the end, but only within my ability. After all, I am just a psychotherapist, not a heavenly master."
After typing on the keyboard, Su Xing looked up at the man sitting opposite, who looked uneasy.
"Mr. Lin, have you ever tried taking sleeping pills or other drugs such as adjuvant suppressive therapy?"
"I tried sleeping pills, but they had no effect. On the contrary, the deeper I fell into sleep, the harder it was to wake up from such a nightmare."
After getting the answer, Su Xing nodded slightly.
"Well, I understand. If I want to eradicate your problem, I'm afraid I have to go to where you live in person. Before that, I can give you a small hypnotherapy session. You don't have to worry. This kind of therapy is to put it bluntly. It’s a strong and unique psychological suggestion, and it’s not dangerous.”
"Can you drive her away?" Lin Lu didn't know what hypnosis was, he had only seen it in movies.
Su Xing couldn't help but chuckle.
"Don't be stupid. If I have the ability, I should change my career long ago. This is just a psychological suggestion. It can't be done much. At least it can make you subconsciously ignore the woman after you fall asleep, so that you can have a good sleep."
Su Xing stood up and motioned Lin Lu to lie down on the recliner beside him.
"By the way, just leave the address to my assistant before you go back. I will be there early tomorrow morning."
Su Xing, who was already standing next to Lin Lu, seemed to have thought of something after finishing speaking. He put on a professional smile and spoke softly.
"Mr. Lin, there is one thing I want to remind you. If you come to the door, the price will be calculated separately. What I mean is that the money you made for the previous reservation may not be enough, so - you have to pay more."
"..."
Lin Lu thought it was a life-threatening matter, but he didn't expect that it was just an increase in medical fees. Although the price of this private clinic is very expensive compared to outside, but there are almost no people there, so who cares about money.
He nodded immediately.
"Dr. Su, I understand. Then I will trouble you tomorrow."
Lin Lu spoke gratefully.
"..."
The scorching sun after noon couldn't stop setting all the way to the west. When it is obscured by the city's steel jungle, it heralds the end of another day in Luoxia City.
Su Xing put away his voice recorder and notebook, watched Lin Lu wrap up his coat and leave in a hurry.
He had touched Lin Lu's palm, and his body was as cold as a piece of ice. If it weren't for the air conditioner above his head that was still blowing cold air, he almost thought he was in the coldest month of winter.
"Looking at the physical examination report, there seems to be nothing wrong with his body. Why are his hands so cold? It's like..."
Su Xing originally wanted to use corpses to describe this feeling, but after thinking about it, he felt it was inappropriate, so he took it back as soon as he spoke.
"Bah, bah, bah, unlucky, unlucky."
After tidying up the things in the consulting room, I looked up at the time. After making sure it was not early, I opened the door and left the consulting room where I had been sitting all day.
In the separate reception room, a beautiful girl with a high ponytail was staring at the computer screen in a daze with her chin in her hands.
"Shanshan."
Su Xing stepped forward quickly and called out the assistant's name.
"Huh? Boss! It's time to get off work."
Su Xing rolled her eyes angrily and glanced at the other person's computer desktop.
"What is this?"
Shanshan smiled mysteriously and said, "Boss, this thing is called 'cyber fortune telling'. It can tell you according to your zodiac sign..."
When this thing woke up, it sounded like a big headache, so he quickly interrupted the little goddess.
"Okay, okay, I don't care about you being a chicken-necked duck-necked person. Anyway, you're here for an internship, so just don't cause any trouble for me. By the way, take a look, there shouldn't be any appointments for today, right? Also, remember later. Forward me the address Lin Lu left.
I'm going out tomorrow and I don't know when I'll be back, so all the appointments for tomorrow will be put in the back row for me. "
"Okay, okay, I understand all this. It's not my first day at work. But boss, what I'm telling you is serious! This is not some chicken-neck duck-neck, this is serious cyber! Forget it. It's accurate.
I did some fortune-telling for you before, and it said that you are in danger of a bloody disaster these days! "
As she said that, Shanshan leaned over and whispered secretly, "I would rather believe that this kind of thing exists than not believe that it doesn't exist, so I spent a lot of money to help you order two statues of gods, which will definitely help you turn disaster into good luck." ,That rich."
As he spoke, he took out two decent-looking jade statues from the express box under the table.
As soon as he heard about being rich and powerful, Su Xing immediately became energetic.
"Is there such a good thing? Show me which God of Wealth it is."
"Um... Guanyin, Buddha? Wait a minute, Shanshan, can you explain to me, I can understand Guanyin, but why is it Guanyin who sends children? If there is something really weird, are you sure worshiping her will work?"
"Eh-Songzi Guanyin should be more leisurely in the past two years, hehe." Zhang Shanshan smiled a little awkwardly, and she herself felt that it was a bit outrageous.
"Oh~ That's it. Then tell me what kind of blessing this Lu Lai Buddha is?"
"Hmm~ It seems that the merchant made a mistake." Zhang Shanshan defended in a low voice.
Obviously, this little goddess has been tricked by online shopping again. This is not the first time, so Su Xing is not surprised.
Su Xing, who was a little tired, didn't have time to chat with this energetic girl. After arranging a few words, he was ready to go upstairs to rest.
"Okay, okay, you can keep the things to yourself. Just remember to send me the address when you get back. Once you're done with it, go home from get off work."
As he spoke, he put away his dumbfounded expression and turned to speak seriously.
"Luoxia City does not seem to be very peaceful recently. Crimes due to mental problems seem to be much higher than usual."
So, is it possible that something weird is really at play?
Su Xing couldn't help but murmur in her heart.
Seeing that her boss had no intention of continuing to chat, Zhang Shanshan happily left work early and packed her things.
…
At night, on the second floor of the psychological clinic.
At this moment, Su Xing was lying in his bedroom, fast asleep. He had worked overtime for several days and fell asleep almost as soon as he touched the pillow.
But it was not a peaceful sleep.
During this period, I had several bizarre dreams in succession. This series of dreams had no beginning or end, but they all had one thing in common, which was the red moon hanging in the sky.
"call--"
Su Xing, who woke up from the nightmare, let out a long sigh of relief. He was not yet fully awake and stared at the ceiling with a dull expression. He was not sleepy, but he didn't want to move.
"It's three o'clock sharp. How long have I slept? Phew~ It's an inexplicable dream."
He glanced at the phone screen and then muttered feebly.
Wait, it's a little weird, take another look.
Suddenly, Su Xing seemed to have thought of something, and quickly turned on his phone again.
The time on the screen still stopped at three o'clock, but strangely there was no signal or network in the upper right corner of the screen.
Boom——
Something was knocked down, making a dull sound.
what sound?
There couldn't be anyone else in the clinic at this time, so what was making the sound?
Su Xing suddenly became energetic, sneaked from the bed to the door of the room, and quietly put his ear against the door.
The voice on the other end was quite strange.
A familiar man's voice came from among them.
"The bell is ringing, I'm going to the funeral, come together, everyone will go, I will be very lonely if I am alone.
Doctor Su, are you still sleeping? The moonlight is beautiful tonight, let's go and have a look. "
