Chapter 11 Another possibility

John Woo's car was parked not far downstairs. It was a brown business car. The glass was covered with black heat-insulating film, so the inside could not be seen from the outside.

John Woo originally wanted to open the middle door and let Lin Fan get in, but he didn't expect that she opened the passenger door and got in. John Woo didn't say anything, got into the driver's seat and quickly started the car.

Lin Fan didn't want to sit with John Woo, but she got carsick.

As long as you are not driving yourself, you will feel dizzy if you sit in someone else's car, ranging from dizziness to vomiting. The specific situation depends on the driver's skills and the condition of the vehicle. Just sitting in the passenger seat may be a little better because I can see things in front of my eyes.

If it was an acquaintance's car, she might lie down in the back seat and squint to relieve some discomfort. It's impossible to squint in John Woo's car, so you can still see the road more closely.

Maybe it's because the feeling of unreality is too strong, but there is still some doubt in a corner of my heart that this person is a liar.

It was already past 10 o'clock when John Woo came to the door. Not long after we drove out, it was already 11 o'clock before we left the city. It was unknown when they got on the expressway and had a meal in the service area. With Lin Fan's permission, the two got off the car and had something to eat first.

I found a fast-food Chinese restaurant, the kind that offers small portions and self-service checkout.

Lin Fan took some ingredients, a soup, and some rice, then went to find a seat. John Woo took a few dishes and quickly found Lin Fan after paying the bill. The two of them ate seriously without feeling too much of a barrier.

After eating, we got in the car and went straight onto the highway. John Woo chatted: "You didn't eat anything in the morning. Is this enough for lunch?"

Lin Fan knew that people who drive for long periods of time should not be too quiet, as they are prone to dozing off, so he responded by saying, "That's enough, I always eat less. Normally, it's two meals a day, sometimes one meal a day."

John Woo looked forward, Lin Fan's appearance appeared in his mind.

Lin Fangao wears loose clothes, so some of the flesh on his body is not obvious. Preliminary estimates suggest that he may weigh 170 pounds. But based on the amount of food she eats today, she won't be able to eat enough meat in two meals a day.

"Do you think I'm so fat, why do I eat so little?" Lin Fan guessed what he was thinking.

"No, I'm afraid that you'll be hungry." I'm really afraid that she'll be hungry, Wu Yusen thought.

"The flesh on my body is all due to taking medicine. You know that some medicines contain hormones, and eating them will make you gain weight, right?" Lin Fan said.

"I know." No wonder the flesh on her body is swollen like steamed bread, which is different from ordinary fat.

"Are you still taking it now?" Hormone medicine is not a good thing. If you take it for a long time, your body will not be able to bear it.

"I haven't taken it for a long time. The medicine is too expensive and I can't afford it. I stopped taking it two years ago, but I haven't lost weight yet."

"Is it an antidepressant?" John Woo asked. There are only some brief entries in the survey materials, and these specific situations will naturally not be mentioned.

"Correct."

"Are there any other side effects?"

"There are quite a few. For example, I am in poor health now and I get tired even if I move a little. I always feel noisy and my eyes get tired easily. Sometimes, I just get up, brush my teeth, wash my face and have breakfast, and within an hour, I start to feel tired. Lie down again.”

Lin Fan felt that there was nothing to hide in this, so he just wanted to explain it more clearly to John Woo, and save him from always thinking that he had super powers. "My memory has also become worse. I told you, I can't always remember things." "

"Why didn't you continue the treatment? Is it because you didn't have money?"

"In the beginning, it was because I had no money. The monthly medication cost was seven to eight thousand, and I also had to see a psychiatrist, which added up to almost ten thousand." Lin Fan recalled: "After more than a year of treatment, all the savings were used up, and I was in trouble. , but I had more and more problems. I stopped taking the medicine."

"I heard that psychotropic drugs need to be discontinued step by step, otherwise it will be very painful, similar to drug detoxification." Wu Yusen often contacts people in the psychological team and has heard about this.

"It was quite painful, but the side effects at the time also forced me to stop. At that time, I felt that my body and nerves had reached a certain extreme, and it kept getting more painful."

"Does the doctor agree to discontinue the medication?" John Woo asked in surprise.

"I didn't ask the doctor. I had no money at that time. I was also feeling uncomfortable, so I simply didn't go to the hospital and it was cut off." Lin Fan said lightly.

Even though John Woo considered himself a tough guy, he couldn't help but glance at Lin Fan.

As he said, forcibly discontinuing psychotropic drugs is similar to detoxification. Everyone knows that detoxification is very painful. Many people cannot stand the pain and are unable to quit, and some even commit suicide.

But the girl next to her who looked calm and composed had experienced such pain and didn't seem to care. Are you completely numb or are you just hardened in your bones?

"How long did the pain of drug withdrawal last?" he asked again.

"It's two a month, I don't remember." At that time, I was so dizzy that I didn't care about time at all.

Wu Yusen was silent for a moment and thought of a possibility: "Could it be that those sequelae are the result of forcibly discontinuing the drug? The damage caused by forcibly discontinuing the drug?" In his impression, the sequelae of the drug do not seem to be so severe, and he feels that although he is still alive, Now, people are ruined.

"Maybe." Lin Fan shrugged, "It doesn't make sense to talk about it now."

"So are you feeling okay now?"

"Now?" Lin Fanxun glanced at John Woo, "Are you referring to the pain caused by the sequelae? You are used to it. I feel pain. I don't know if it has really reduced over time, or if my body has slowly adapted. , I really got used to it.”

"Still in pain?"

"Why, didn't I mention it just now?" Lin Fan thought for a moment, but didn't seem to say, "I keep having pains in various parts of my body. I also went to the hospital for a checkup. They said it was neurological. They prescribed medicine for me, but I didn't take it. .”

"Is it also because of money?"

"That's right. Actually, the first time I opened it, it was useless, so I stopped eating it."

"Where does it hurt?" John Woo asked.

"Everywhere hurts. My head hurts, my neck hurts. My arms hurt, and sometimes my heart hurts. Sometimes my knees hurt, and sometimes my whole leg hurts. I feel like there's no place in my body that doesn't hurt." Lin Fan said that he felt pain in the end. I want to laugh a little bit.

It sounded very serious. John Woo frowned: "How does it hurt?"

"Sometimes there is a dull pain, like muscle inflammation, a secret pain. Sometimes there is a sudden stabbing pain, and the whole person is stiff and unable to move. It takes a while to recover. Sometimes it feels like there is a steel bar pulling in the body. "

"The most severe headache is the headache. When it is severe, it feels like there is a steel bar hanging through the temple, and the pain is like the front of the head being opened. I can't stay awake."

John Woo suddenly didn't know what to say. With this kind of pain, a good person can cure depression, right? He suddenly understood Lin Fan's depression.

"I also learned a new word called 'migratory pain'. It's very appropriate, isn't it." Lin Fan laughed softly.

John Woo took a glance and found that the smile didn't reach his eyes, it was more like a helpless compromise.

"Then don't you usually have anything happy?" John Woo changed the subject.

"I haven't known what happiness is for a long time." Lin Fan said.

"What do you like to eat?" If you can't continue the conversation, change the subject.

"do not know."

"There's none?"

"I had it before. But then, I no longer felt that way. I used to be happy when I ate something I liked, but now I don't know what joy is. My emotions are missing." Lin Fan recalled. "And most of the time, I can't taste the food I eat. I feel no different when eating meat or vegetables. I don't feel hungry. Eating something every day is just to prevent myself from starving to death."

John Woo looked at Lin Fan in surprise. If it wasn't on the highway, he really wanted to stop the car and ask questions.

This is not normal at all, okay!

Lin Fan felt the gaze from the other side, and she smiled again: "I have changed too much over the years, and I don't look like myself anywhere. If the face in the mirror hadn't been familiar, I would have suspected that it was someone else."

John Woo's heart skipped a beat. Lin Fan might not care, but he worked in a special agency and knew that such a thing was entirely possible.

If we follow this line of thinking, Lin Fan is right to deny that she has superpowers, because it is indeed not her who has superpowers. Her fatigue and pain seemed to have a reason.

But I can't say yet. After all, he is not sure what the situation is. If it is true, it is not clear how friendly the other party is, and whether talking too much will alert the enemy.

Thinking of this, Wu Yusen decided not to ask Lin Fan anymore, but instead talked about some interesting anecdotes about the special office.

What he said were small pieces of information that were not confidential, and it wouldn't matter if he told them. Although Lin Fan was not interested, in order to prevent Wu Yusen from falling into a quiet state and causing drowsiness, he still responded one after another.

I don't know whether it was because of the good car or John Woo's driving skills, but Lin Fan did not feel particularly uncomfortable along the way.

Probably because of the weekend, there were more cars on the road. The road that originally took 3 and a half hours actually took 5 hours to get there. Lin Fan was a little surprised when he entered Gaohe City from the toll station, until the car started to stop and stopped, entering an old compound.

John Woo unbuckled his seat belt, and Lin Fan got out of the car obediently.

Looking around, the yard is quite empty. There is a three-story old building in front of it. The exterior wall is decorated with mosaics, which looks like the architectural style of the 90s. There are trees outside the yard, and the location seems relatively private with little traffic. Not far away is the elevated highway, I don't know whether it is a railway track or a highway.

"This used to be the house of the Power Supply Bureau. Later, the Power Supply Bureau built a new building and moved away, so we took over here." Wu Yusen said and led Lin Fan into the old building.

Lin Fan didn't see any signs outside the door. After following in, he discovered that only the facade was old, and the interior had been renovated long ago.

The entire wall facing the gate is decorated with mosaic murals to show a beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers. Around this wall is a glass door, which looks like a real office area.

John Woo swiped his work ID card at the door opposite, and the glass opened with a ding. Lin Fan followed John Woo into the room and walked to the front desk.

The young lady at the front desk saw John Woo coming in and greeted happily: "Wu Te is back?"

"Yes," John Woo replied with a smile, "Give me a visitor card and register it in my name."

"Are you the new guy this time?" The young lady looked at Lin Fan curiously.

Lin Fan didn't hear the question. She was staring at the background wall of the front desk in a daze.

I saw a few big characters on it that were shining in gold and extremely rustic - RiRihong Trading Co., Ltd.
