Chapter 40 Case 9 ● Disappearing clothes

Qi Fen asked: "I lost a piece of clothing, was it stolen?"

"It's not just that I lost a piece of clothing, it's because I didn't make it clear." Xiang Xuhui faltered, unable to say, "It's... the clothes he was wearing."

"When you woke up in the morning, the clothes you were wearing were gone?" Qi Fen asked in surprise.

"I don't like to wear pajamas when I sleep, so..." Xiang Xuhui scratched the back of his neck, staring down at the red wine glass, "Usually only wear one piece of clothing, you know..."

He paused, took a deep breath, "It's just that when I wake up in the morning, I often find that my underwear is missing."

"..."

The private room was suddenly quiet, and the wine glass in Zhang Liang's hand hit the table with a bang, "Senior, you didn't tell me that you lost your underwear!"

Xiang Xuhui's face turned even redder. He didn't know whether it was caused by drinking or shyness. He coughed in embarrassment and said, "I didn't have the nerve to say that before."

"Puff—cough cough cough..." Zhang Liang suppressed a smile and took a sip of wine, but he choked on himself, tilting his head and coughing violently.

During this period of time, Qi Fen encountered too many strange things, and his reaction was much calmer than that of Zhang Liang, "It was someone in the middle of the night..." Qi Fen racked his brains to find a suitable word to describe, "Did you take off your underwear?"

"I don't know, I don't feel it," Xiang Xuhui shook his head, "It's like, puff, it disappeared!"

Qi Fen asked: "Can you explain in detail?"

Xiang Xuhui gulped down the red wine in front of him again, and Zhang Liang helped him refill it.The first bottle of red wine had already been drunk, so Zhang Liang waved his hand and asked the waiter to bring in another bottle.

After the waiter went out, Xiang Xuhui said slowly: "I can't remember the exact time when it happened for the first time. It was probably when I was in elementary school. I woke up and found that I was naked. I didn't think much about it at the time, thinking that I forgot to put on my clothes before going to bed. , because the frequency is not high, and I didn’t take it to heart. But it happened several times later, and the number of occurrences increased, and then I realized that things were a little strange.”

Qi Fen thought about the scene where he found himself naked after waking up, and tried not to laugh out loud.

"After realizing it, I was very scared, so I told my parents, and they called the police. The police came to my house to check and said that there was no sign of outsiders entering. Because I was young at the time, the police thought it was a child who wanted to attract the attention of adults. It was a prank, but it was not taken seriously, and the case was hastily closed." Xiang Xuhui showed some dissatisfaction with the police.

"Could it be a prank by the family or others?" Qi Fen smiled.

"No, not only at home, but also outside, and sometimes when I'm the only one in the room." Xiang Xuhui shook his glass unconsciously, "It's so weird that we still Moved because of it, but it still happens."

Zhang Liang said with a smile: "Senior, have you tried wearing more clothes?"

"I've tried it!" Xiang Xuhui nodded excitedly, "I've slept in pajamas, even in a down jacket, but in the end the underwear disappeared! All the other clothes are still intact, and they are buttoned in the same way as before going to bed."

"Pfft—how much does the person who snatched your underwear like your underwear! Hahahaha!" Zhang Liang couldn't stop laughing.

Xiang Xuhui was even more embarrassed by the laughter, and covered it with drinking.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." Zhang Liang smiled and patted Xiang Xuhui on the shoulder to apologize, "Senior, continue talking."

Xiang Xuhui said: "I thought I saw a ghost, and I went to the legendary psychic master, went to the temple to burn incense, and asked for amulets, but nothing worked. My parents were very worried. At the head of the bed, he stared at me all night without sleeping, for fear that I would disappear one day. Later, he couldn’t take it anymore, so I asked him to go back to sleep and stop staring at me.”

Qi Fen asked: "But you mentioned before that there is a solution?"

Xiang Xuhui shyly said: "It's not a solution. Didn't I lose my clothes? Then I just went to bed without clothes and slept naked. I didn't expect the problem to be solved smoothly."

Zhang Liang suddenly realized: "No wonder I heard that you are a day-student in college, so this is the reason."

"Yes." Xiang Xuhui admitted, "But now that I work, I have to travel frequently, and sometimes I have to live in the same room with my colleagues. It is not convenient to sleep naked, so the problem happened again."

Qifen recalled the TV programs he had watched, and thought of the simplest possibility, "Is it just because of sleepwalking? For example, she took off her clothes while sleepwalking."

"No, it's definitely not because of my sleepwalking." Xiang Xuhui firmly denied.

Qi Fen asked: "How can you be so sure?"

"Because I installed a camera in the house, I want to see what's going on." Xiang Xuhui took out his mobile phone and found a video, "I finally captured this video."

Qi Fen and Zhang Liang leaned over curiously.

The video was shot at night, with a desk lamp turned on in the room, and there was a faint light.The picture is focused on the bed, Xiang Xuhui sleeps on it, he deliberately did not cover the quilt to record the video, only wearing a pair of underwear, his chest and abdominal muscles are well-organized, exposed to the camera.

"Senior is in good shape!" Zhang Liang praised.

After hearing this, Xiang Xuhui shook his hand and poured out his hand full of wine.

The video passed minute by minute without any change in the room.Just when Qi Fen suspected that nothing happened, but that Xiang Xuhui was crazy, the picture suddenly distorted, so fast that Qi Fen thought he was dazzled.After the picture was restored, although the key parts of Xiang Xuhui in the video were mosaiced, it could still be seen that the underwear was gone.

Zhang Liang exclaimed: "Fuck!"

Just when Xiang Xuhui was about to explain this video again, Zhang Liang regretted again: "What kind of mosaic!"

"..." Xiang Xuhui took the phone back silently, pretending not to hear Zhang Liang's teasing, "This was filmed this summer. I just intercepted the video and put a mosaic on it, without making any other adjustments."

"It's really strange." Qi Fen thought for a moment, "If this video is real and credible, then at least it can be confirmed that it is not your hallucination, because we have indeed seen it."

Xiang Xuhui breathed a sigh of relief, "Could it be a kind of, uh, similar to group hypnosis, or group psychological suggestion?"

Zhang Liang interjected, "You're looking for the wrong person. What we study is medicine and science! You should go to someone like a magician or a necromancer."

"Zhang Liang is right. I don't know much about this, but I have a friend who does. If necessary, I can ask him." Qi Fen asked Xiang Xuhui for advice.

Xiang Xuhui hesitated: "Uh... what kind of person is he? After all, I don't want too many people to know about this kind of thing."

"I'm a psychotherapist, and I know a lot about it. I can't guarantee anything else." Qi Fen gave a brief introduction and didn't say too much, leaving it to Xiang Xuhui to consider.

Qi Fen is actually very curious about this matter. The generation influenced by "Harry Potter" has more or less expectations and admiration for this almost magical event.

Xiang Xuhui was silent for more than ten minutes. Just when Qi Fen thought he would give up, he asked, "Then can you leave me alone? Just a consultation."

Qi Fen accepted the commission: "Yes, but can you give me a copy of that video? It's hard to describe it with words alone."

Providing the video is equivalent to showing the client that the man does not want his secrets to be known by more people, refuses to blurt out, and recalls the problems that have troubled him for more than ten years, and does not want to spend his whole life buying new underwear , gritted his teeth and agreed.

"Okay." The man sent the video to Qifen's mailbox, "I trust the person introduced by Zhang Liang, so please keep it secret for me, and don't let the video be seen by unrelated people."

"No problem." Qi Fen replied solemnly.

On the way back, he watched the video over and over several times, and paused when the picture was distorted to go through it frame by frame. About 7 or 8 frames were distorted.It's not like the distortion of the real thing, but more like the fluctuation of the air or the light propagation being interfered with, and it doesn't travel in a straight line in these few frames.

When they got home, Xu Yan hadn't left yet, and changed into his pajamas. He acted like he was staying here, pretending to help Qi Fen share the pressure, and take care of Jiang Mu together, but no matter how you look at it, it was a drunkard's intentions.

Qi Fen didn't trust Xu Yan, so he told Jiang Mu about Xiang Xuhui after he went to bed.

"This is the first time I have encountered such a thing." Jiang Mu narrowed his eyes and stared at the video, "If it was stolen, I can think of several possibilities, but it disappeared out of thin air..."

He lowered his voice, lost in thought.

"Can you use dreams to help him?" Qi Fen asked.

Jiang Mu shook his head, "Unless he sleepwalked and ate his pants in the middle of the night, it has nothing to do with sleep."

Qi Fen was amused, "It's a bit like magic!"

Jiang Mu suggested: "Actually, you can ask Xu Yan, he is an expert in this area."

The big fluffy rabbit was still on the stool at the end of the bed, Qi Fen recalled how Xu Yan conjured it up this afternoon, and asked in surprise, "He can use magic?"

Jiang Mu followed his gaze, got up and dragged the rabbit over to the bedside, "He doesn't know magic, just a few magic tricks. Strictly speaking, he can only guess what has happened, such as calculating in the afternoon that you have an appointment at night. , At that time, your classmate has already decided to ask you out, so he can pretend to tell you."

"Is there really magic in this world?" Qi Fen pressed the rabbit's soft belly, and the hair felt very comfortable.

"If something that cannot be explained by science is called magic, there is." Jiang Mu affirmed, "For example, prophecy. It is a pity that it has been lost. This heir of the Xu family does not know prophecy."

Before going to bed, Jiang Mu excused that things related to magic are unlucky, and asked Qi Fen to delete the video after uploading it to his mobile phone, without leaving any traces.

Qi Fen thought to himself that Jiang Mu was the biggest thing related to magic, and at the same time obediently deleted the video and email.

There were two people and a rabbit lying on the double bed. After Qi Fen fell asleep, Jiang Mu studied the video a few times, and he had a few more guesses in his mind, but whether it was something beyond his own field was just a guess, and he couldn't confirm it. prove.

The fluffy rabbit slid down from the head of the bed and lay on the other side of the bed, Qi Fen was squeezed into the middle of the bed.Jiang Mu put down his phone, and pulled the rabbit to the middle of the bed again.
