long night fire

"Little merchant...

"It just so happens that I'm free now, come in."

After getting permission, Shang Jianyao turned the handle and pushed the door open.

Dr. Lin still wore gold-rimmed glasses and a white coat, sitting behind a log-colored table, playing with the pen in his hand.

Unlike in the past, this time, her hair was not tied up, but casually let down, making her look a few years younger.

"Good morning, Dr. Lin." Shang Jianyao greeted with a smile.

Dr. Lin pointed to the chair opposite:

"Good morning, sit down."

As she spoke, she glanced at the folders spread out in front of her.

When Shang Jian Yao sat down, she asked chattingly:

"How many days have you been back from work?"

"I came back yesterday afternoon." Shang Jian Yao didn't hide anything.

Dr. Lin pestered the table with the end of a pen, and said with a smile:

"Today is too sudden, so we won't do any tests, let's chat casually.

"How is it? This field trip went well, right?"

"It's exciting." Shang Jianyao replied truthfully.

Dr. Lin was a little curious:

"How exciting?"

"It can kill an ordinary employee of the security department several times." Shang Jianyao found a standard for comparison.

"Then you are lucky, you can come back alive." Dr. Lin couldn't help sighing.

She turned to laughing:

"Then tell me about your experience this time, and you don't need to say anything that needs to be kept secret."

Shang Jianyao showed an expression of reminiscence:

"We drove out of the gate and came to the surface. The sky was blue, high and empty. It felt like you could suck people up. It was very scary, but you got used to it...

"There are many trees around. Some of the leaves are green and some are withered and yellow. There is a fresh smell of excrement in the air..."

"Stop!" Dr. Lin raised his hand and pinched his nose, "I don't need to talk about such details."

She immediately picked up the cup and took a sip of tea:

"What about the back?"

"There's nothing behind." Shang Jianyao replied calmly.

"Ah?" Dr. Lin couldn't react for a moment.

Shang Jianyao explained:

"The latter involves a confidentiality clause."

"..." Dr. Lin was a little stunned, "That is to say, you have only been out for a few hours, and you have started to encounter things involving confidentiality clauses? After this incident, what else can you say?"

Shang Jianyao replied seriously:

"I ate canned braised beef, ate energy bars, ate compressed biscuits, went to the bushes and urinated once, and killed two mosquitoes..."

"It's needless to say these things." Dr. Lin was a little helpless.

She was silent for a while, and couldn't help asking again:

"Except for the details of life, do the others involve confidentiality clauses?"

Shang Jian Yao nodded:

"We have to wait for the company to review before we can determine what can be said and what cannot be said."

"Hmm." Dr. Lin sighed, "What happened to you all? Well, have there been any casualties?"

She was worried that this would irritate Shang Jianyao and make his condition worse.

Shang Jian Yao shook his head:

"No."

Dr. Lin breathed a sigh of relief and decided to change the subject:

"During these experiences on the surface, do you feel that you have grown?"

"Yes." Shang Jianyao said with a serious expression, "I found that saving all human beings is a very difficult thing. We often can't even save a small town, a settlement, or a child."

Doctor Lin nodded with satisfaction:

"As long as you know.

"I'm not saying that there's something wrong with your ideal, but that you should set some goals that are easier to achieve before this ideal.

"It can help boost your confidence and improve your form."

Shang Jianyao responded immediately:

"yes.

"So, I have to work harder to train myself and improve myself. Only in this way can all mankind be saved."

"..." Dr. Lin rolled his eyes and sighed quietly.

Before she could speak, Shang Jianyao took the initiative to ask:

"Doctor Lin, I came to you today mainly to ask, how to overcome the hidden fear in my heart?"

Doctor Lin's expression changed, and he smiled slightly:

"That's a good question."

She didn't speak more professional terms, and said in a very approachable and chatty way:

"As far as I am concerned, the premise of overcoming the hidden fear in the heart is to recognize it and face it.

"Blind avoidance will never solve the problem.

"Sometimes, you might as well look directly at your bloody wound."

Seeing Shang Jianyao's thoughtful expression, Dr. Lin added:

"However, in practice, I don't advocate facing the fear immediately, because it is likely to cause secondary damage and cause a complete mental breakdown.

"The correct steps should be to adopt appropriate methods to approach that fear step by step, from the edge to the center, and in the process, constantly rebuild the inner strength and erode the shadow little by little.

"When you can fully face those nightmares, you will find that they are not strong and can be easily defeated."

Having said that, Dr. Lin said with a smile:

"You can tell me your general feelings, and I will help you design some plans."

Shang Jian Yao remained silent and did not answer.

Dr. Lin was not surprised, and said "hmm":

"Don't worry, you can take your time and think about it for a whole week.

"At this time next week, remember to come for a review.

"If you feel that you can't speak to me, then you can change the way, or change to someone you can trust who can speak."

Shang Jian Yao nodded slightly:

"Thank you, Dr. Lin."

He immediately stood up and said goodbye politely.

After returning to the 495th floor, Shang Jianyao turned directly to the fourth elevator area in another direction.

This leads to the Security Department.

Shang Jianyao waited for a while, then walked in slowly, swiped his card and pressed the 647th floor.

Soon, he came to the dressing room next to the "Old Tune Group" and changed into light clothes.

As soon as Shang Jianyao pushed open the door of the training room, he saw Jiang Baimian sitting on a bench with his ponytail tied up, wiping the sweat from his forehead with a towel.

"Why are you here?" Jiang Baimian sensed his presence earlier.

She remembered that she gave the three team members two days off.

"Exercise." Shang Jianyao replied truthfully.

Jiang Baimian thought for a while, and suddenly realized:

"That's right, your peers are working at this time, and you can't find anything to do at home except sleep."

"You can still read books." Shang Jianyao replied.

"..." Jiang Baimian was about to stare at this guy, but suddenly felt something, and looked at the door again.

Bai Chen appeared there wearing a dusty scarf.

Before Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao could speak, she took the initiative to say:

"It's okay to be idle."

Jiang Baimian smiled and praised:

"good."

Just a few steps into Bai Chen's door, Long Yuehong also walked over with a towel.

"You, why are you here?" Long Yuehong was surprised and panicked when she saw the group leader, Shang Jianyao, and Bai Chen looking at her together.

"Why are you here?" Jiang Baimian asked without answering.

Long Yuehong faltered and said:

"The girl my mother introduced to me is at work, and I can't meet until after dinner. I thought that I have nothing to do anyway, so I might as well come here to recover."

Jiang Baimian's smile became more obvious:

"very good."

She immediately looked around, pretending to be serious and said:

"Since you're all here, let's practice fighting."

"Ah..." Long Yuehong looked embarrassed.

……

At eight o'clock in the evening, Shang Jianyao was lying on the bed as usual, with his eyes half closed, waiting for the radio program to start.

Ten seconds later, the familiar sweet voice echoed:

"Hi everyone, I'm Hou Yi, the hourly newscaster, and it's 8 o'clock in the evening...

"The board of directors held the No.20 second meeting of this year today to discuss the focus of winter work...

"Cotton harvest in the inner ecological zone has been bumper...

"At 9:35 this morning, Wang Yafei, director of the 'Material Supply Market' on the 478th floor, died of cardiac arrest at work..."

Shang Jian Yao's eyes opened suddenly, and he sat up straight away.

Chapter 7 Respective responses

Shang Jianyao had just heard the name Wang Yafei this morning.

When he attended the meeting of the "Life Sacrifice" church, some members mentioned this man, saying that he supported the establishment of "fertility centers" so that children would come from artificial wombs.

The member also said that because she was always arguing with Wang Yafei about this matter, he was deliberately suppressed by him as the supervisor, and he found an excuse to change to the most difficult cleaning post.

At that time, the "guide" Ren Jie's response was:

"God will punish sinners."

After these words, less than four hours later, Wang Yafei died suddenly due to cardiac arrest at work.
