Criminal Investigation: Forbidden Rose

At first, Shao Lin thought that Xia Yi was just talking about it, but he didn't expect him to be serious.Although Shao Lin refused in his heart, he couldn't say it when he saw that someone Xia had printed such a thick stack of papers.

He could only nod helplessly and gently.

This swimming pool is opened by an old friend of Xia Yi. It takes a private custom-made boutique route. It usually runs some trainings for synchronized diving, scuba diving or free diving. The water quality is clean and the environment is refreshing. Shao Lin sits on the edge of the snow-white tiles, two With only one foot hanging in the water, he hesitated to go into the water.

Xia had a whistle hanging around his neck, stepped on the water and floated in the deep water area, and stretched out his hand to Shao Lin: "I said, I built a six-meter-deep pool, not for you to wash your feet? You need six meters to wash your feet." Is it deep water, do you want me to add some rose petals and milk for you, Concubine Lin?"

Shao Lin couldn't help being amused, and kicked a splash in Xia Yi's face.Holding the platform with both hands, he slid deftly and went into the water with a "crash".

"How long can you hold your breath underwater?"

Shao Lin thought for a while: "It used to be about 5 minutes."

"That's even better, I knew you had practiced."

Xia Yi took out a metal keychain from the small bag of his swimming trunks as if by magic. The pendant was a silver "meat bone", and the four letters of LOVE were spelled out in English on the bone.

Coach Xia issued an order: "Dive down and pick up the things."

Shao Lin pulled his face immediately: "Are you making fun of Huanhuan?"

Huanhuan was the Labrador whose master sold drugs and was recruited by Xia Yi to guard the door in the reception room.When he was free after get off work, Shao Lin often watched Xia Yi take a silicone bone and throw it far away, and then asked Huanhuan to pick it up. Ha Chi had a great time.

"No, no, Teacher Shao, I have a scientific reason for this!"

"I've been reading a book for the past few days. The book says that your symptoms are because your brain automatically 'binds' water to bad things before, so when you encounter a water environment, your brain automatically starts to Repeat the previous trauma. Therefore, what you need to do in training is to break this 'binding' and replace it with something else." Xia Yi said seriously, "How about it, am I not wrong?"

Shao Lin's face was sullen, but there was a faint smile in his eyes.

——This idiot, is he serious?

"For example, at the beginning, Huanhuan was very resistant to our police, and she would bite her trouser legs when she saw her. After all, we took her owner away. So, she got angry when she saw us, so she called the 'police' and 'Lost Master' was bound. But later, our dog trainer found that she was very confident when playing Frisbee, so she often threw toys for her to pick up, and she was very happy. Slowly, the 'police' and 'Throwing the Frisbee' is bound together."

Shao Lin: "..." Although, why do you always use a dog as a metaphor?

"It's the same with this one, don't think about anything." Xia Yi lifted Shao Lin's chin with the end of the "Silver Bone", "I want you to have only one thing in your mind, and that is to complete the task - pick up this thing. "

As soon as Xia Yi let go, the keychain sank slowly.

Shao Linxin said that what Xia Yi said seemed to make sense.He did some mental construction, took a deep breath, and tried to dive down.

But as soon as his face touched the water, his brain shut down terribly.

Obviously six meters is not deep, but when he looked at the bottom of the water, he felt that it was a bottomless abyss.He had just taken a full breath, and within ten seconds, he felt as if he was suffocating.It's one thing to be stuck underwater and quite another to force yourself to dive.

No.

His brain made a decision for him in an instant.Shao Lin instinctively turned back and broke out of the water.He took off his mask and inhaled frantically, "I can't." Obviously there was air all around him, but his chest heaved and fell as if he couldn't breathe enough.

"I can't dive down." Shao Lin shook the water off his face, and suddenly regretted that he had promised Xia Yi today, "I'm sorry, I..."

Xia Yi frowned slightly: "What are you afraid of?"

Shao Lin: "..."

Xia Yi stepped on the water and swam a little forward, and Shao Lin backed up a little, but soon, his back hit the cold tiles, and Xia Yi spread his hands, supported the edge of the pool, surrounded Shao Lin in front of him, and lowered his The voice asked again: "Tell me, what are you afraid of?"

Shao Lin opened his mouth tremblingly, but made no sound.

Xia Yi stuck very close.Although he didn't touch his skin, this man was like a small natural stove, and he could feel the heat from his body through the water.

too close.

Shao Lin instinctively turned his head away, but his eyes fell on the plump deltoid muscles of Xia Yi's upper arm, and he immediately looked elsewhere as if he was electrocuted.

"No. You're not afraid at all." Xia Yi lowered her eyes and whispered, "You're just running away."

"Although, I don't know what you are running away from, but there are some things that are useless to anyone. The counselor said it was useless, and I said it was useless, even if your father is standing here now, pushing your head into the water It's useless." Xia Yi stretched out his hand to poke his chest, "There are some hurdles, you just have to cross them yourself."

"A hero lies not in how high he has achieved, but in how many difficulties he has overcome."[1]

"Come on, be brave once." Xia Yi suddenly stepped back one meter, and stretched out his hand to Shao Lin while leaning on his back.His eyes are sincere, passionate, and full of strength: "Come with me."

Shao Lin's Adam's apple twitched.He stretched out his hand silently, letting Xia Yi pull, and returned to the center of the pool again.

He thought to himself: only Xia Yi.

Every time he showed anxiety and avoidance, all the counselors would restrain and politely stop, and he stood in the safe zone he created, refusing to communicate with the world.There was only Xia Yi, who was enthusiastic and domineering like a foolish husky who crashed into his world, biting his trouser leg and dragging him out.

And Shao Lin acquiesced—maybe because, whenever Xia Yi looked at him like this, Shao Lin felt that he would promise him anything.

He didn't want to disappoint those bright eyes.

Shao Lin made a standard duck dive and dived again.Xia Yi poked his head into the water.Shao Lin's kicking movements were very smooth, and his well-proportioned legs were straight and long, flowing like a mermaid's tail.

very beautiful.

This time, Xia Yi watched Shao Lin dive to the bottom of the water, picked up the bone key ring, and went upstream quickly.The movement was as fast as running for life, like chasing a group of sharks on the back.

Xia Yi couldn't help laughing.He took the key ring and tried to poke Shao Lin's nose with the end of the bone: "Look, isn't this all done? It's not difficult, is it?"

Shao Lin pursed his lips slightly, and avoided it with embarrassment.

Having said that, people's psychology changes rapidly. Shao Lin found that once he focused on "this is the task", when he was very, very focused, he would not be easily disturbed by emotions.

Coach Xia was very satisfied with this: "Come again."

"Why are you still here!"

"You go slower this time. It's too fast. It's not good for a man to be so fast."

Shao Lin: "..."

Xia Yi forced Shao Lin to pick up the bones three more times, and decided to upgrade the task: "Okay, this time you dive, you are not allowed to come up. No matter what happens, you can only come up if I blow the whistle."

Shao Lin relied on "touching the floor and running" a few times before, and he exploded when he heard this: "But who knows how long it takes you to blow the whistle?!"

Xia Yi raised the corners of his mouth ruthlessly, and snorted coldly: "When I want to let you up, I will naturally blow it."

"How long will it take?"

"do not know."

Shao Lin: "..."

"Duddu—" Xia Yi blew his whistle, cursing, "Okay, Comrade Shao Lin, please don't bargain with your instructor, let me go ashore and do 100 push-ups after hearing your BB, not underwater. The shore is always patient, huh?"

Shao Lin: "..." He wondered why this person is still so twitchy.

"I think back then, I was also a little Xia instructor who was known for being cruel and ruthless!" Xia Yi sighed, "There are eight hundred lads who [practiced] crying, hey, now..."

Shao Lin exposed it indifferently: "It's hard to manage Yan Jingjing now."

Xia Yi: "..."

"Go!" This time, he deliberately threw the key a little farther away.

With a "crash", Shao Lin entered the water again.

However, Xia Yi didn't make things difficult for him, and after counting five seconds silently in his heart, he blew his whistle to wake him up.

The strange thing is that Shao Lin actually found a certain amount of fun in this game of throwing bones and picking bones.Every time you pick up the bones, you will have a sense of accomplishment of "complete the task", which will generate positive feedback to the psychology and make the state better next time.

Someone in Xia blew the assembly whistle again: "Instructor Xiao Xia is showing mercy today, today's training is here first, and we will continue next week."

In fact, the main reason is that the booking time is up.In Yan'an, where every inch of land is expensive, it is not cheap to own such a large swimming pool.

Shao Lin said stiffly: "There will be no next week."

"Really? Then this keychain is for you, keep it well."

Shao Lin fiddled with the two keychains, holding the silver bone with his thumb, and just touched the "LOVE".

He stroked the word lightly twice.

Xia Yi put on a bath towel and walked into the bathroom side by side with others: "Actually, I think you performed very well today."

Shao Lin raised his eyebrows: "...Thank you?"

"So you should be rewarded!"

Shao Lin: "?" Are there any rewards?

"The literature I read says that rewards are a very important part of behavior therapy." Xia Yi explained, "I just thought about it for myself. This theory makes sense. For example, when raising a dog, it was in the right place when I was young. You have to reward him with food to reinforce this good behavior."

Shao Lin: "..." Do you have a metaphor for not using a dog?

But he was still patient and pretended to look forward to it: "So what is my reward?"

Xia Yi grinned: "I'll treat you to McDonald's children's meal later."

"When you eat McDonald's, you eat McDonald's. Why do you want to eat the children's meal?"

"Because I gave away Snoopy toys! One more person gives more power, I'm collecting the whole set..."

Shao Lin was speechless, and slammed the door of the separate compartment: "Goodbye."

"Hey, what's the matter with you!" Xia Yi stood alone in the public bath, unscrewing the shower, and suddenly felt lonely, "Didn't I see that little tattoo of yours a long time ago? It's shameful, I haven't grown any meat on your body, really!"

In the sound of splashing water, Shao Lin's voice seemed a little annoyed: "I want you to take care of it!"

Xia Yi laughed loudly: "So you're still shy with your butt naked!"

Shao Lin: "..." I don't know if the water rushing down from above his head is too hot, but when he thinks of Xia Yi's plump body next door, his cheeks feel hot for no reason.Shao Lin gritted his teeth and turned the shower to cold water, suppressing the evil fire in his chest.

Instructor Xiao Xia is a ruthless person, he will do what he says.Ten minutes later, Xia, who was nearly 10 meters tall, bought two children's meals at the counter.

Two big men sat facing each other in McDonald's, and there were two Snoopy toys on the dining table.

Shao Lin licked his lips after gnawing on a wheat-spicy chicken wing: "Fried food is too unhealthy."

"Yeah," said Xia Yi, taking a sip of the strawberry milkshake, "the milkshake is also high in calories."

Then, the two reached out to the last piece of chicken wing in the carton at the same time, and their eyes met in the air, as if they hit a spark of "Zula".

Xia Yi asked: "Will you come to practice next week?"

Shao Lin squeezed out a word between his teeth: "Practice!"

The person on the other table smiled and let go: "Then I'll let you eat."

……

That night, Shao Lin was sitting at the table, holding a list of crew members of the Penglai Princess, and editing photos.He first pinned the ID photos of Xu Huahao's family to a board, and then pinned Ji Tong on them.The three red lines represent that Ji Tong killed three members of the Xu family.

After that, he cut Leng Xiangrong, Kang Cheng, and Zhuang Zhengyi with Qin Liang on it.In the end, Qin Liang and Ji Tong were marked with blue lines, and they were connected to a card named "Admin".

Shao Lin thought about it for a long time today.Perhaps, what Xia Yi said was right—it wasn't water that he was afraid of.It's not that he can't get out, but he doesn't want to get out—because he can't accept the ending of the search and rescue boat explosion.It was as if, as long as he kept deceiving himself, there might be a turning point...

So he repeatedly immersed himself in past emotions to numb himself.

Xia Yi's words rang in his ears again: "...Even if you are standing here now..."

If dad is here?

The end of Shao Lin's eyes curled up slightly, but the memory went farther away.

"Dad, Dad," the little boy held a cartoon book, changed his position in the man's arms, and asked childishly, "are the dragons in fairy tales real?"

The man's voice was magnetic and indifferent: "Fake."

The little boy's eyes widened: "Then why are there dragons in every book!"

"Because the book is going to teach Ah Lin a truth..." The man held the child in both hands, and adjusted him to a more comfortable position, "All greedy, vicious, and seemingly invincible dragons can be defeated Killed."

After a short clip, Shao Lin quickly returned to reality.

He stared at the five letters "Admin", only feeling a little hot in the corner of his eyes.Shao Lin stacked the three pieces of paper with his handwriting similar to his own, pierced them with a thumbtack, and nailed them viciously to the "Admin" card.

But he suddenly felt that the nail seemed to be driven into his heart.

The author has something to say:

The Shao Lin retriever gradually hardened.
