Lao Gong is a deep sea mermaid
Chapter 36. The Dream World
Ming Yuan's thoughts broke into Gu Zhou's dreamland as an outsider.
However, compared to the outside world, Ming Yuan in the dreamland does not have any extraordinary abilities.
Because this is Gu Zhou's dream, it is Gu Zhou's home field.
Ming Yuan is on the street of a strange city, and this is obviously not the Pelican City that Ming Yuan is familiar with, but another place he has never set foot in.
The wind and the sun are beautiful here, and even the air is full of warmth.
But Ming Yuan was not happy, but even more worried.
If the facts that Gu Zhou knew in his heart were really as beautiful as in the dream, then he would not be intoxicated by the dream and refuse to wake up.
It is precisely because of certain things in reality that make Gu Zhou suffer so much that Gu Zhou creates such a beautiful dream to paralyze himself.
Originally, an ordinary person could not create such a huge and complete dream, but the power shared by the mermaid heart gave Gu Zhou this ability.
Gu Zhou created a perfect dream world for himself, like a faint king, in which he lives, dreams and dies.
Ming Yuan stood on the street, not knowing where Gu Zhou was.
At this time, a figure familiar to Ming Yuan passed him by.
Ming Yuan looked back subconsciously, and found that it was a young man in a police uniform, whose figure was inexplicably familiar to him.
The young policeman's cell phone rang.
"Hey?"
When Ming Yuan heard this voice, he was slightly surprised in his heart, and hurriedly followed.
It was the voice of the lawyer He I met today.
Why did Gu Zhou turn a lawyer into a policeman in his dream?
Ming Yuan couldn't figure out this problem, but he knew that the places in the dream that had been tampered with to be different from the reality must be related to Gu Zhou.
Following this person will greatly increase his chances of finding Gu Zhou in the dream.
Not knowing what was said on the other end of the phone, He Zhao, who was wearing a police uniform, laughed and cursed.
"You kid still knows how to come back!"
"This time you went to the tropics to take pictures of those wild animals. My parents kept talking about it for a while, saying that it was not safe there. Uncle Zhou and Aunt Cao also missed you very much. By the way, where did you come from?" Airport? Let me take a taxi to pick you up!"
In the dream, Ming Yuan followed He Zhao all the way to the airport.
He saw another Gu Zhou.
A Gu Zhou with tanned skin, carrying a hiking bag, a camera around his neck, and a bright smile.
"Why are you so tanned like a black-skinned monkey! Let me tell you, when you go back, the throne of the most handsome guy in the neighborhood will be mine!"
Brother He Zhao bumped into Gu Zhou, and took a suitcase, "I just called and told my parents and your parents, just go to my house for dinner tonight."
When Gu Zhou and He Zhao passed by Ming Yuan, they glanced in Ming Yuan's direction and couldn't help frowning.
"what happened?"
"I seem to have seen that person somewhere..."
"Forget it! It's just us, who do you know that I don't know?"
Ming Yuan saw the two getting farther and farther away from him, but he didn't call out to Gu Zhou.
He can't take risks.
The dream world is a complicated world. If Gu Zhou cannot be awakened at once, Gu Zhou will hide in a deeper dream and it will be more difficult to wake up.
Ming Yuan must first find a real breakthrough before he can wake up Gu Zhou.
Before that, he couldn't act rashly.
Ming Yuan followed Gu Zhou to a semi-old residential area.
In the dream, Gu Zhou did not prepare a luxurious residence for himself, but prepared a not very rich but warm home for himself.
"Don't call home before you come back."
A strange woman came out to meet her, strangely, Ming Yuan couldn't see her face clearly.
To be precise, this woman has no fixed face, she looks like everyone, but she is not like anyone.
It's like an imaginary face that's hard to picture in your mind because you haven't seen it in real life.
Ming Yuan heard Gu Zhou call "Mom" to the woman.
Three more men came out, each as strange as the first woman.
One of the men, like the first woman, has no fixed face, but occasionally looks a little like Professor Yang.
These two are a couple, and apparently the man who occasionally reveals some of Professor Yang's facial features is Gu Zhou's "father".
And the other man and woman should also be a couple.
The strange thing is that both of them have the bodies of five or sixty-year-olds, but their faces seem to be only in their thirties.
Gu Zhou called these two people "Uncle He" and "Auntie".
Ming Yuan doesn't know why the beautiful life that Gu Zhou fantasizes in his heart is related to He Zhao, the intimate performance of the two in the dream casts a tinge of gloom in his heart.
Does Gu Zhou like this man named He Zhao?
Just when Ming Yuan was worried, a young woman with a vague face appeared at the door of He Zhao's house.
Ming Yuan saw He Zhao walk out of the house shyly, and brought her into the house.
He vaguely heard He Zhao's voice coming from the wall.
"This is my girlfriend..."
The haze in Ming Yuan's heart was instantly dispelled.
This is Gu Zhou's dream, and everything that happens in it comes from Gu Zhou's subconscious.
If Gu Zhou had feelings for He Zhao other than friends, then he would not have conceived of a partner in He Zhao's dream.
For Gu Zhou, a friend with a happy family is the symbol of happiness.
However, after observing Gu Zhou's dreams, Ming Yuan found that Gu Zhou was not a very imaginative person.
For all the people Gu Zhou has never met, even if they live beside Gu Zhou in his dreams, Gu Zhou can't draw a clear and specific face for them.
The reason why He Zhao's parents have clear faces should be because Gu Zhou has seen them before.
And I only met He's parents in their thirties.
Otherwise, the two people in the dream wouldn't have been wearing the faces of middle-aged people.
In Gu Zhou's dream world, all of Ming Yuan's extraordinary abilities cannot be used, so he can only wait for Gu Zhou to go out by himself, so that he can have a chance to get along with him.
Soon, the day in the dream passed.
In the early morning, Gu Zhou in sportswear trotted out of the house with a quick-drying towel around his neck.
Ming Yuan also appeared on the plastic runway in the community.
He was at Gu Zhou's side, jogging on the runway in accordance with Gu Zhou's speed.
"Are you new here? I haven't seen you before."
Gu Zhou in the dream is more talkative than in reality.
"Yes, I'm your new neighbor." Ming Yuan looked at Gu Zhou without blinking, "I haven't seen you before, do you work in other places?"
"I guess! I love observing animals, so I started making documentaries after graduation, and I don't go home very often."
Gu Zhou's words reminded Ming Yuan of one thing.
Ming Yuan glimpsed Gu Zhou's memories briefly, although it was only a short memory.But in that memory, what little Gu Zhou read was a comic book about wild animals.
It turns out that Gu Zhou's real interest is here.
Ming Yuan thought to himself that Gu Zhou's application for the job at the Observatory might not be just because of the salary.
Gu Zhou subconsciously still likes animals, but he didn't realize it.
"What about you?" After talking about his occupation, Gu Zhou began to ask.
"I work at the Observatory." Ming Yuan looked into Gu Zhou's eyes, "Deep Sea Observatory."
Gu Zhou stopped jogging and fell into a momentary confusion.
"Deep sea observatory?"
This name made Gu Zhou feel familiar, but he couldn't remember where he heard it.
Ming Yuan knows that in order to create a false dream, one must hide the contrary facts as much as possible.
In order to make the dream more real and believable, Gu Zhou will definitely hide those things that are contrary to the dream deep in his memory.
Gu Zhou, who has parents in the dream, can do what he wants to do, so he doesn't have to come to Pelican City alone, nor does he have to work in Pelican City, let alone become a deep-sea observer.
Most importantly, there is no need for a sea god to appear in a peaceful and ordinary life.
So Ming Yuan was also hidden deep in Gu Zhou's memory.
At this time, He Zhao also arrived on the plastic track.
"Why are you so early! I thought you would sleep in!"
After He Zhao finished speaking, he turned his head and saw Ming Yuan, "You are..."
"Hello, I'm a new neighbor named Ming Yuan. You are... Lawyer He, right?" Ming Yuan was clearly talking to He Zhao, but his eyes kept paying attention to Gu Zhou's face.
When he mentioned the words "Ming Yuan" and "lawyer", Gu Zhou's expression suddenly changed.
"Your name is Ming Yuan?" Gu Zhou stood on the spot, looking around slowly and confusedly.
Everything around seemed strange, "Why did you call him Lawyer He?"
"I attended a funeral. Didn't Lawyer He's father die more than ten years ago?"
Ming Yuan vaguely knew that the death of Lawyer He's father would make Gu Zhou feel pain, but in order to wake up Gu Zhou, he had to do so.
"What nonsense are you talking about! Uncle He is alive and well! He even took me to find my adoptive parents..." Gu Zhou kept talking while holding his head.
His voice didn't sound like he was refuting Ming Yuan, but it sounded like he was hypnotizing himself.
Everything around became lifeless, and He Zhao stood still, expressionless, like a frame of stop-motion animation.
Even the clouds in the sky stopped moving.
"What's the name of your adoptive parents? What do their faces look like? Do you remember these?" Ming Yuan approached Gu Zhou step by step, and hugged him in his arms, "Let's go back, Gu Zhou."
"No! I don't want to go back!" Gu Zhou violently pushed Ming Yuan away, "As long as I stay here...Uncle He will not die...he will always be alive..."
Like a drowning person, Gu Zhou grabbed a piece of driftwood indiscriminately and never wanted to let go.
Even if the driftwood didn't help him get ashore at all.
"Do you want your Uncle He to always be the same as now?" Ming Yuan took Gu Zhou's hand and brought him to the residence of the He family in his dream.
Ming Yuan looked at the layout of He's house, and found that everything looked very real—except for the people in the house.
The He family's parents were like two strange puppets, with loving smiles on their faces, sitting motionless in front of the TV.
They wore the clothes that people in their 60s and [-]s usually wear, but their faces showed no signs of aging.
"Don't turn the person you respect into a monster in your dreams, they certainly don't want you to become like this. Besides, Xia Ye and I are waiting for you." When Ming Yuan turned his head, Gu Zhou was already in tears.
In the dream, a few round pearls fell on the floor.
"Look, don't you know who you are?" Ming Yuan pointed to the pearl on the ground, "You are my partner, Gu Zhou."
The world in the dream became fragmented, and Gu Zhou opened his eyes.
Ming Yuan also opened his eyes.
The posture of the two looks like a couple sleeping in an embrace.
Gu Zhou buried his face into Ming Yuan's chest, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't just think about escaping."
Thinking of the agreement with Ming Yuan, and remembering that Xia Ye was still waiting for his rescue, Gu Zhou felt ashamed of his previous evasion.
In fact, at first, Gu Zhou just wanted to calm down in the water.
But Gu Zhou forgot, thinking about it every day and dreaming at night.
Because of meeting He Zhao, the painful memories in Gu Zhou's heart were brought back, and it was expected that he would dream about the past when he fell asleep.
In addition, the environment in the water boosted his abilities, and the nature of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages made Gu Zhou subconsciously choose to escape from reality.
"It's okay." Ming Yuan is always tolerant towards his partner, "I don't mean to blame you. But what I want to tell you is that true strength does not depend entirely on force. There are many powerful creatures on the bottom of the sea, but Sea God There is only one, do you know why?"
"Why?" Gu Zhou raised his head.
"Because they don't have a strong heart, they are afraid of opponents and failure, and I am never afraid of these."
Gu Zhou wanted to say something more, but the cold air from the air conditioner was blowing on his skin, making him aware that something was wrong with the current situation.
He finally recalled everything that happened last night.
He fell asleep in the bathtub.
So……
Gu Zhou rubbed his legs against each other in the air-conditioning blanket.
There was really nothing in it.
"What are you thinking?" Ming Yuan's voice became a little hoarse.
It stands to reason that they are all men, and they won't lose a piece of meat if they are looked at by others. Everyone's swimming assessment is not much better than it is now.
But when he thought of being carried out of the bathtub naked, Gu Zhou couldn't help but move his eyes around, and he didn't dare to look at Ming Yuan for a long time.
A strand of long hair swept across Gu Zhou's cheek and fell beside his ear.
More hair fell down and piled on Gu Zhou's neck like silk satin.
When Gu Zhou wanted to escape, it was already too late.
"Well……"
The voice of protest was blocked by the arbitrary Lord Seagod.
Gu Zhou's toes under the air-conditioning blanket curled up because of embarrassment, leaving a series of round and cute little nests on the mattress.
……
"Gu Zhou, what's wrong with your neck—"
When eating at the restaurant at noon, Xiao Bao noticed the red mark on Gu Zhou's neck with sharp eyes.
But before he could finish asking, he was dragged away by another colleague covering his mouth.
"I said you are really a pot-handling master? Can't you tell what's wrong with your neck? You're still asking here..."
The colleague's lowered voice reached Gu Zhou's ears, making his uneasiness rise to a higher level.
Gu Zhou subconsciously looked at the phone screen, checked the collar of his shirt with the reflection of the black screen, and finally found the "fish that slipped through the net" that couldn't be concealed.
An eye knife flew to the culprit.
Ming Yuan touched the tip of his nose, but his heart was full of satisfaction.
Although I was kicked down when I made progress, I couldn't make it to the end, but...
cough……
Thinking of his partner's eyes were red and pearls were constantly falling down, Mr. Mermaid couldn't help but blush.
At that time, it is probably not a man who can maintain his sanity and think about whether his clothes can cover up the problem.
No, not male fish.
Gu Zhou on the opposite side still maintained a serious look, but his red ears revealed his true mood.
Gu Zhou thought to himself:
If I had known earlier, I would not have done such stupid things as falling asleep in the bathtub, otherwise I would not have made up that dream and let Ming Yuan slip into it...
Get into a dream?
Gu Zhou's thoughts suddenly turned to another direction, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.
Why must you look for clues in the real world?
He and Ming Yuan can obviously find it in the dream.
The heat in his ears dissipated because of this sudden idea, Gu Zhou finished writing his thoughts on a blank document, and pushed the phone to Ming Yuan.
In order to prevent information leakage, such matters involving supernatural powers, Gu Zhou used local txt files without cloud.
"Do you have to touch the skin to get into someone else's dream?"
Seeing this question, Ming Yuan understood what Gu Zhou meant, and quickly responded.
"Scales can also achieve the same effect, but I don't know enough about the human world to construct a realistic enough scene in other people's dreams."
"Can I?"
Gu Zhou is not sure about this matter.
Last night, he constructed the dream world entirely out of spiritual self-protection, which triggered a subconscious behavior.
Let him take the initiative to build such a place, he is not very sure in his heart.
"Needs training."
……
"Concentrate on getting into other people's dreams before proceeding to the next step."
"Remember when you summoned the king squid? Go to the palace first and tell yourself that you have the ability to invade other people's dreams as you like."
"Ordinary people's dreams can be modified. You are far stronger than them. But the scene should be as real as possible, and don't let them realize that they are dreaming..."
Before falling asleep, Ming Yuan told Gu Zhou how to invade the dream.
The two will take advantage of their nap time for the first training session.
Because of his experience in summoning the King Squid, Gu Zhou quickly concentrated his mind and let his thoughts sink into the deep sea—the source of Seagod's power.
Gu Zhou and Ming Yuan interlocked their fingers, and he saw Ming Yuan's dream.
There is a transparent water film on the edge of Ming Yuan's dream, which isolates Gu Zhou from the outside.
Gu Zhou stretched out his hand, touched the water film lightly, and passed through it easily.
He didn't feel any resistance.
According to what Ming Yuan said before he fell asleep, when he invaded the dream, he would feel resistance. Even in the dream of weak ordinary people, there would be weak resistance in the outermost layer.
Can't feel resistance...does it mean that Ming Yuan has no defense against him?
Gu Zhou's heart became extremely soft in an instant.
Until he saw the scene in Ming Yuan's dream.
Ming Yuan smelled a strong scent of wind oil, which made him wake up instantly.
The object of entry was a small green glass bottle and Gu Zhou's slender hands.
"Do you know what this is called?" Gu Zhou said in a bad tone.
"What?" Ming Yuan sat up straight in confusion.
"This thing used to be called 'Wake up, this is the Olympics', but now it's called 'Can you think of something serious in your mind'."
Gu Zhou unscrewed the cap of Fengyoujing angrily, gritted his teeth and condemned in a low voice, "Did you dream of that kind of thing every day when you fell asleep?"
"What kind of thing?" Ming Yuan asked knowingly.
After appreciating his partner's shy expression, Ming Yuan said innocently: "Oh, I remembered, it might be in the morning, uh..."
Gu Zhou covered his nonsense mouth.
"It's almost time to go to work, let's continue training in the evening."
Feeling the wetness of his palm, Gu Zhou quickly withdrew his hand and left the room as if fleeing.
The soft light emitted by the piece of coral jade that Ming Yuan gave to Gu Zhou made Gu Zhou temporarily feel relieved about Xia Ye's personal safety.
Although he still has to track down the criminals, Gu Zhou's mood is not as anxious as before.
Neither Gu Zhou nor Ming Yuan took the initiative to mention everything in the dream last night.
But Gu Zhou understood that Ming Yuan must be curious about all this.
It's just that this person understands his mood, so he doesn't ask anything.
Maybe when the matter of Xia Ye came to an end, he would be able to open up everything about the past calmly.
But now is not the time, Gu Zhou can no longer let these memories that will make him weak interfere with his determination to find Xia Ye.
What Gu Zhou didn't know was that when he was alone, Ming Yuan had already searched for reports about Police Officer He through keywords.
The reason why Ming Yuan knew the profession of police officer He was because he saw the decoration of He's house in Gu Zhou's dream.
There is a family photo on the coffee table of the He family. In that family photo, He Zhao looks only a few years old, and He's parents are about 30 years old. He Zhao's father is still wearing a police uniform.
Ming Yuan guessed that this photo might actually exist in reality.
When he searched on the browser, he used many keywords he knew, such as "truck driver", "drunk driving", "officer He", "accident" and so on.
The more keywords there are, the more precise the search will be. Even though it has been a long time, Ming Yuan still found a few reports from that year.
However, these reports all claimed that Officer He's death was caused by a traffic accident, and that the drunk-driving truck driver was jailed.
Obviously, the person who wrote the report was either bought or didn't know the truth at all.
Otherwise, Gu Zhou wouldn't care so much about this matter.
That He Zhao also firmly believed that there was something strange about Officer He's death, and Ming Yuan guessed that Gu Zhou and He Zhao must know something hidden that he didn't.
Since this matter caused Gu Zhou so much pain, it is of course impossible for Ming Yuan to ask Gu Zhou.
He planned to find an opportunity to let He Zhao tell him everything about that year.
Ming Yuan found He Zhao's contact information on a legal consulting app.
……
That night, a wolf cub howled from the top floor of a certain neighborhood in Pelican City.
"Why are there wolves howling?"
"Maybe someone's kid is playing around outside!"
No one cared about the wolf howl until there was a scream in the neighborhood.
"Murder!"
The author has something to say: Orange Cat: What did you dream about, tell me about it? (fly rubs hands)
Ming Yuan: Don't think about it!I'm a serious mermaid, just kissing, hugging and holding high. (upright)
Orange Cat: Really?
Gu Zhou: Don't ask me!I don't see anything!
感谢在2021-08-0514:32:21~2021-08-0612:50:09期间为我投出霸王票或灌溉营养液的小天使哦~

Thinking of the agreement with Ming Yuan, and remembering that Xia Ye was still waiting for his rescue, Gu Zhou felt ashamed of his previous evasion.
In fact, at first, Gu Zhou just wanted to calm down in the water.
But Gu Zhou forgot, thinking about it every day and dreaming at night.
Because of meeting He Zhao, the painful memories in Gu Zhou's heart were brought back, and it was expected that he would dream about the past when he fell asleep.
In addition, the environment in the water boosted his abilities, and the nature of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages made Gu Zhou subconsciously choose to escape from reality.
"It's okay." Ming Yuan is always tolerant towards his partner, "I don't mean to blame you. But what I want to tell you is that true strength does not depend entirely on force. There are many powerful creatures on the bottom of the sea, but Sea God There is only one, do you know why?"
"Why?" Gu Zhou raised his head.
"Because they don't have a strong heart, they are afraid of opponents and failure, and I am never afraid of these."
Gu Zhou wanted to say something more, but the cold air from the air conditioner was blowing on his skin, making him aware that something was wrong with the current situation.
He finally recalled everything that happened last night.
He fell asleep in the bathtub.
So……
Gu Zhou rubbed his legs against each other in the air-conditioning blanket.
There was really nothing in it.
"What are you thinking?" Ming Yuan's voice became a little hoarse.
It stands to reason that they are all men, and they won't lose a piece of meat if they are looked at by others. Everyone's swimming assessment is not much better than it is now.
But when he thought of being carried out of the bathtub naked, Gu Zhou couldn't help but move his eyes around, and he didn't dare to look at Ming Yuan for a long time.
A strand of long hair swept across Gu Zhou's cheek and fell beside his ear.
More hair fell down and piled on Gu Zhou's neck like silk satin.
When Gu Zhou wanted to escape, it was already too late.
"Well……"
The voice of protest was blocked by the arbitrary Lord Seagod.
Gu Zhou's toes under the air-conditioning blanket curled up because of embarrassment, leaving a series of round and cute little nests on the mattress.
……
"Gu Zhou, what's wrong with your neck—"
When eating at the restaurant at noon, Xiao Bao noticed the red mark on Gu Zhou's neck with sharp eyes.
But before he could finish asking, he was dragged away by another colleague covering his mouth.
"I said you are really a pot-handling master? Can't you tell what's wrong with your neck? You're still asking here..."
The colleague's lowered voice reached Gu Zhou's ears, making his uneasiness rise to a higher level.
Gu Zhou subconsciously looked at the phone screen, checked the collar of his shirt with the reflection of the black screen, and finally found the "fish that slipped through the net" that couldn't be concealed.
An eye knife flew to the culprit.
Ming Yuan touched the tip of his nose, but his heart was full of satisfaction.
Although I was kicked down when I made progress, I couldn't make it to the end, but...
cough……
Thinking of his partner's eyes were red and pearls were constantly falling down, Mr. Mermaid couldn't help but blush.
At that time, it is probably not a man who can maintain his sanity and think about whether his clothes can cover up the problem.
No, not male fish.
Gu Zhou on the opposite side still maintained a serious look, but his red ears revealed his true mood.
Gu Zhou thought to himself:
If I had known earlier, I would not have done such stupid things as falling asleep in the bathtub, otherwise I would not have made up that dream and let Ming Yuan slip into it...
Get into a dream?
Gu Zhou's thoughts suddenly turned to another direction, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.
Why must you look for clues in the real world?
He and Ming Yuan can obviously find it in the dream.
The heat in his ears dissipated because of this sudden idea, Gu Zhou finished writing his thoughts on a blank document, and pushed the phone to Ming Yuan.
In order to prevent information leakage, such matters involving supernatural powers, Gu Zhou used local txt files without cloud.
"Do you have to touch the skin to get into someone else's dream?"
Seeing this question, Ming Yuan understood what Gu Zhou meant, and quickly responded.
"Scales can also achieve the same effect, but I don't know enough about the human world to construct a realistic enough scene in other people's dreams."
"Can I?"
Gu Zhou is not sure about this matter.
Last night, he constructed the dream world entirely out of spiritual self-protection, which triggered a subconscious behavior.
Let him take the initiative to build such a place, he is not very sure in his heart.
"Needs training."
……
"Concentrate on getting into other people's dreams before proceeding to the next step."
"Remember when you summoned the king squid? Go to the palace first and tell yourself that you have the ability to invade other people's dreams as you like."
"Ordinary people's dreams can be modified. You are far stronger than them. But the scene should be as real as possible, and don't let them realize that they are dreaming..."
Before falling asleep, Ming Yuan told Gu Zhou how to invade the dream.
The two will take advantage of their nap time for the first training session.
Because of his experience in summoning the King Squid, Gu Zhou quickly concentrated his mind and let his thoughts sink into the deep sea—the source of Seagod's power.
Gu Zhou and Ming Yuan interlocked their fingers, and he saw Ming Yuan's dream.
There is a transparent water film on the edge of Ming Yuan's dream, which isolates Gu Zhou from the outside.
Gu Zhou stretched out his hand, touched the water film lightly, and passed through it easily.
He didn't feel any resistance.
According to what Ming Yuan said before he fell asleep, when he invaded the dream, he would feel resistance. Even in the dream of weak ordinary people, there would be weak resistance in the outermost layer.
Can't feel resistance...does it mean that Ming Yuan has no defense against him?
Gu Zhou's heart became extremely soft in an instant.
Until he saw the scene in Ming Yuan's dream.
Ming Yuan smelled a strong scent of wind oil, which made him wake up instantly.
The object of entry was a small green glass bottle and Gu Zhou's slender hands.
"Do you know what this is called?" Gu Zhou said in a bad tone.
"What?" Ming Yuan sat up straight in confusion.
"This thing used to be called 'Wake up, this is the Olympics', but now it's called 'Can you think of something serious in your mind'."
Gu Zhou unscrewed the cap of Fengyoujing angrily, gritted his teeth and condemned in a low voice, "Did you dream of that kind of thing every day when you fell asleep?"
"What kind of thing?" Ming Yuan asked knowingly.
After appreciating his partner's shy expression, Ming Yuan said innocently: "Oh, I remembered, it might be in the morning, uh..."
Gu Zhou covered his nonsense mouth.
"It's almost time to go to work, let's continue training in the evening."
Feeling the wetness of his palm, Gu Zhou quickly withdrew his hand and left the room as if fleeing.
The soft light emitted by the piece of coral jade that Ming Yuan gave to Gu Zhou made Gu Zhou temporarily feel relieved about Xia Ye's personal safety.
Although he still has to track down the criminals, Gu Zhou's mood is not as anxious as before.
Neither Gu Zhou nor Ming Yuan took the initiative to mention everything in the dream last night.
But Gu Zhou understood that Ming Yuan must be curious about all this.
It's just that this person understands his mood, so he doesn't ask anything.
Maybe when the matter of Xia Ye came to an end, he would be able to open up everything about the past calmly.
But now is not the time, Gu Zhou can no longer let these memories that will make him weak interfere with his determination to find Xia Ye.
What Gu Zhou didn't know was that when he was alone, Ming Yuan had already searched for reports about Police Officer He through keywords.
The reason why Ming Yuan knew the profession of police officer He was because he saw the decoration of He's house in Gu Zhou's dream.
There is a family photo on the coffee table of the He family. In that family photo, He Zhao looks only a few years old, and He's parents are about 30 years old. He Zhao's father is still wearing a police uniform.
Ming Yuan guessed that this photo might actually exist in reality.
When he searched on the browser, he used many keywords he knew, such as "truck driver", "drunk driving", "officer He", "accident" and so on.
The more keywords there are, the more precise the search will be. Even though it has been a long time, Ming Yuan still found a few reports from that year.
However, these reports all claimed that Officer He's death was caused by a traffic accident, and that the drunk-driving truck driver was jailed.
Obviously, the person who wrote the report was either bought or didn't know the truth at all.
Otherwise, Gu Zhou wouldn't care so much about this matter.
That He Zhao also firmly believed that there was something strange about Officer He's death, and Ming Yuan guessed that Gu Zhou and He Zhao must know something hidden that he didn't.
Since this matter caused Gu Zhou so much pain, it is of course impossible for Ming Yuan to ask Gu Zhou.
He planned to find an opportunity to let He Zhao tell him everything about that year.
Ming Yuan found He Zhao's contact information on a legal consulting app.
……
That night, a wolf cub howled from the top floor of a certain neighborhood in Pelican City.
"Why are there wolves howling?"
"Maybe someone's kid is playing around outside!"
No one cared about the wolf howl until there was a scream in the neighborhood.
"Murder!"
The author has something to say: Orange Cat: What did you dream about, tell me about it? (fly rubs hands)
Ming Yuan: Don't think about it!I'm a serious mermaid, just kissing, hugging and holding high. (upright)
Orange Cat: Really?
Gu Zhou: Don't ask me!I don't see anything!
