Dark Cave - part 1 - Chapter 4

” You look very tired. Eat something and go to the detention room to rest for a while. ”
The detention room of the Wenyuan District Public Security Bureau has four small rooms, two by two , on both sides of the house . There is a small corridor in the middle, and a guard post at the door. As soon as Guanjian walked into the detention room, he immediately had a strange feeling: he seemed to have walked into a dream, into his own hallucination, and into that dark corridor.
However , this time, he had a pair of resentful and angry eyes in the darkness.
I just happened to faint at the same time Shishi was killed ?
Am I the “ Zhuge Shengnan ” ?
Do I have amnesia? Do I have a split personality?
He was deeply troubled by the recurring thought that even he himself could not rationally prove his innocence.
The door suddenly opened.
No one wants to be imprisoned , especially a little boy. Xiao Jianjian walked out of the hut without hesitation.
Ahead was a long, eerie corridor, just like the one seen in the hypnosis experiment, a corridor leading to death.
Isn’t Shishi’s murder the climax of the tragedy? He walked out of the hut, as if it was a mission. Ahead, there was still unknown darkness – not quite, he could almost foresee that there would be …
A bright light flickered faintly in the distance, was it a firefly?
Finally I could see clearly that there was a chandelier in front of me, and under the lamp was the table, and on the table was the woman.
Can it be confirmed that it is a woman? Guan Jian was surprised to find that the person on the stage did not look like a woman.
At the most critical moment, the image blurred again. Although it was impossible to identify, the key point was that it was almost certain that this was someone he was familiar with.
When did such a thing appear in my hand? Guan Guan raised his hand to see the object clearly, and when the object collided with the light, a beam of light burst out.
A knife!
An intense feeling of suffocation locked his chest and throat, and Xiao Guanjian felt that he could not breathe for a moment.
” Terminate the experiment! ” Professor Ren’s voice.
Graduate student Fang Ping pressed Guanjian’s temples with two cotton balls soaked in alcohol. Guanjian opened his eyes, but his vision was immediately blocked by the strong light. At a glance, he could see clearly that Officer Chen and another officer were standing next to Professor Ren.
” I … why am I here! ”
Officer Chen said, ” I asked Professor Ren to demonstrate how to conduct experiments on you, so I hypnotized you and transferred you to Professor Ren’s laboratory. So what did you see just now? ”
” It’s the same as before , except that this time the person lying on the stage is no longer a woman, and she doesn’t have long hair hanging down … I should say it looks more like a man, but I don’t know who it is … I even think it might be me. ”
” Is it you? According to your experience, when you see the person lying on the table clearly, that person will die. ” Officer Chen’s eyes were still fixed on Guanjian’s face: What kind of child is this? He has handled countless difficult and strange cases, but he has never met such a strange suspect – a handsome medical student who can see the special ability of other people’s death.
The long dark corridor, the corpse on the laboratory table, if these images exist in Guanjian’s subconscious, what does it mean? Perhaps it means that Guanjian is imagining these horrific scenes, a scene that can be created. Guanjian’s familiar old anatomy building of Jiangyi can be used as the background. Huang Shiyi’s murder is almost completely in line with his ” dream ” .
” Although Professor Ren’s testimony is very important, it cannot rule out your suspicion of murder. However, we have to thank our bail pending trial system. You and I will go back to the police station to complete some formalities, and then we can go home …”
Jian followed his parents who came to pick him up and walked out of the police station, he suddenly heard a few bird calls overhead . A dozen dark crows were circling overhead.
” Child, you didn’t say a word after returning home. What do you think? Why don’t you talk to your parents …” The key mother Wan Tingfang complained again.
” If he wants to be quiet, just let him be quiet for a while. When necessary, he will naturally communicate with us, right? ” Father Guan Shaopeng always felt that he understood his son better.
The key is that the mind is actually blank. What is sprinkled on the blank is tears.
Why Shishi?
That night, he was in so much pain that he lost consciousness for a while. During this blank period, he had enough time to go back and forth to the old anatomy building. Why was the pain so real? It reflected every detail of Huang Shiyi’s murder, the sharp blade inserted into her heart, the sawed head, the torn skin, the cut ribs … It was as if he had experienced it himself. Unless … All of this had already existed in his mind, and everything had been ” brewed ” in his mind .
” They ” have always been lurking in his mind! This thought made him sweat.
Assuming I am the murderer, what is the motive?
Maybe , deep down, I am born evil ?
So I can see ” them ” and I can communicate with evil and darkness.
But why did I see a guy on the stage? Even more, it felt like me?
The doorbell suddenly rang, breaking the silence of the family of three. At the door stood a tall girl with almost transparent white skin, unusually large eyes, and hair cut half-length and dyed dark chestnut, which brought a fashionable handsomeness without losing the charm of a girl. Wan Tingfang smiled, gently called ” Shanshan ” , and enthusiastically took the girl’s hand.
Seeing that it was Ouyang Shan who came in, Guan Jian sighed, stood up and walked towards his bedroom. Wan Tingfang was quick to step forward and grab her son: ” Xiao Jian, how come you don’t have any basic manners? ”
The key is still not speaking. Ouyang Shan said softly: ” He is in a bad mood. I just came to see him. It’s nothing important . I will go back now … My parents say hello to you. ”
The Ouyang family used to be the neighbor of the Guan family . Ouyang Shan and Guan Jian grew up together. Guan Jian was one year younger than Ouyang Shan and also studied at the Jiangxi Medical University. Although the Guan family later moved to the staff quarters of the Construction Department, the two families still visited each other frequently, and during the New Year and other festivals, they were just like a family. I don’t know when it started, but the adults of the two families almost believed that these two children, who were like a golden boy and a jade girl, would eventually get together. So whether at home or at Jiangxi Medical University, Ouyang Shan’s anger at Huang Shiyi’s “ stealing her love ” was no secret at all.
Wan Tingfang hurriedly stopped her and said, ” You ‘ve come all this way, you can’t just go back without even eating a bite of food. It’s settled, you must stay for lunch! I haven’t even had anyone at home to talk to me this morning. ”
Ouyang Shan then smiled and said, ” Okay, I like the dishes cooked by Auntie the most . Let me help you! ”
Guan Jian shrugged. He was in no mood to chat, so he went back to his room.
Ouyang Shan followed in. There was really nothing he could do, from his mother to his neighbor’s girlfriend, no one could keep him quiet for a while.
” This is the book I bought recently. If you like it, you can take it and read it. ” Guan Jian pointed at a pile of novels on the bookshelf and said listlessly.
Ouyang Shan lowered her head and whispered, ” I was also shocked by Shishi’s accident. I regret that I embarrassed you in some way. I really regret it. ” Ouyang Shan secretly raised her eyes to look at Guan Jian, ” You are not still blaming me, are you? ”
” It’s all in the past, why bring it up? ” Guan Jian felt a pang in his heart and looked up at Ouyang Shan.
” You finally look me in the eye. Am I that dinosaur? ”
Ouyang Shan is actually a very beautiful girl, and her admirers can line up from the gate of Jiangxi Medical University to the Zhaoyang Lake. The two grew up together and were as close as siblings. He always treated her as his sister, but Shanshan hated Huang Shiyi.
Hate it to the bone … Guan Jian ‘s heart trembled, and he looked up at Ouyang Shan. Ouyang and Zhuge happened to be double surnames!
” I hope you don’t blame me. ” Ouyang Shan’s face brightened. ” Tell me , Shishi was murdered, do you feel weird? She was just an ordinary college student, who could have offended her to do such a thing …” Ouyang Shan paused, looked at Guan Jian’s face, and said, ” Forget it, we can talk about this later. ”
” You tell me, I can afford it. ” Guan wanted to hear Ouyang Shan’s opinion.
