Vol 5 Chapter 5: Grimace

Xiang Kun knew that in the "dreams in dreams" she triggered, Xia Libing could not perceive the various sensory information and emotional fluctuations of the dreamer as she did in the first-level dreams, but he was aware of the various details in the dreams. The grasp of it is much stronger than in reality.
After all, in that "Dream in a Dream", she has the highest "administrator rights" and can also enter the "Developer Mode". The information, behavior patterns, and existence environment that the dreamer receives in the dream can all be determined by her , Can have more understanding.
While thinking about it, Xiang Kun heard the movement in the bedroom-Lao Xia also woke up.
Xia Libing retired her loose hair, and walked out of the room yawning.
Xiang Kun couldn't help frowning: "Why didn't you continue to sleep?"
He judged based on sensory information that Lao Xia should be very sleepy now, and her body is also in a state of exhaustion. After the "dream in a dream" is over, he should normally continue to fall asleep.
Moreover, he made a supper for Lao Xia not long before going to bed tonight, and he would not wake up hungry.
Obviously, this was when Lao Xia returned to her first-level dream after ending the "Dream in Dream" of Officer Xiao Zhao, forcibly controlling herself to wake up.
After sitting next to the dining table, opposite Xiang Kun, Lao Xia spoke and asked, as expected, the memory of the last confession of Police Officer Xiao Zhao in "Dream in Dream".
"Why do you feel funny when you fart when you confess? Is it because of the contrast? In a more formal atmosphere, it is easy to make people laugh if there is an incident that does not match the atmosphere? But what kind of situation makes people feel embarrassed, what kind of situation will It feels painful, what kind of situation will be angry, what kind of situation will be funny, how to distinguish this?"
"This is actually not so easy to distinguish. People's emotions are not completely monolithic, and many emotions are closely connected." Xiang Kun said: "And sometimes, the same thing, in the eyes of the parties and bystanders, is different. Feeling. It is that different parties involved may have completely opposite emotions. At the time of the incident, and after the incident, they may also have different perceptions and feelings. Just like the dream of police officer Xiao Zhao’s confession, he said Maybe at the moment when things happened, he was actually ashamed and embarrassed that he wanted to dig a hole to hide himself, but..."
Halfway through, Xiang Kun suddenly felt that something was wrong. Although Lao Xia had difficulty in sensing emotions, she was a dual master of psychiatry and psychology, and she had been studying this aspect for years. What he just said, Lao Xia must know clearly, and even know more comprehensively, deeper and more systematically than him.
And from the past experience of playing with Lao Xia, Yang Zhen'er, and Tang Baona, the content of various WeChat chats and conversations with her, and the notebook that records more than 900 behavior patterns, Xiang Kun can also judge that Lao Xia I have long known how to grasp the boundary between dou and bi and rudeness. Although she can't have funny and joyful feedback on her own, it does not prevent her from being an excellent sneer.
When Xiang Kun felt puzzled, Xia Libing, who had been discussing with him seriously, suddenly put out his tongue and made an "Einstein grimace."
Xiang Kun was taken aback, and instantly understood Lao Xia's purpose-she didn't sleep and got up, not to talk to herself and analyze the theory, but to conduct experiments directly.
It is estimated that Lao Xia came up with a new idea after seeing the "most funny thing he has ever experienced" in "Dream in Dream", and he wanted to make Xiang Kun laugh by actually creating a "funny incident" and trigger him Feeling Xiang Kun’s "emotional assimilation" in the opposite direction, so as to integrate herself into the "funny incident", just like police officer Xiao Zhao who remembered her whole life when she confessed to a girl in middle school .
Seeing that Xiang Kun didn't respond, Xia Libing put away his grimace and looked indifferent for a few seconds. He stretched out two index fingers, pushed up the skin at the corners of his eyes, wrapped his upper lip around his lower lip, and made a face imitating a fox. .
Xiang Kun still didn't respond, so two seconds later, Xia Libing returned to her original state, expressionless for a while, pinched her cheek with one hand, squeezed her mouth, pushed her nose up with one hand, and rolled her eyes. Made a very impactful grimace.
Xiang Kun finally smiled and gave Lao Xia a thumbs up.
After Xia Libing recovered her expression, she looked at Xiang Kun and shook her head: "You didn't think it was funny, it was just a perfunctory. Is it because the grimace I made is flawed and the contrast is not enough, or is it the reason for the current conversation atmosphere?"
"Not at all. If you usually make a few grimacing faces abruptly, I would have laughed stupidly." Xiang Kun helplessly explained, "But I have just noticed in advance that you are deliberately discussing things seriously, perhaps for other purposes. When you make a grimacing face, my attention is focused on why you did it, and I still wonder which part of the grimacing action was in the funny video we watched yesterday afternoon..."
Xia Libing nodded: "Understood, I did it too deliberately."
Then he asked: "If the level of humor is 0 at the lowest and 10 at the highest, what score can be scored for the confession of Officer Xiao Zhao?"
"9 points." Xiang Kun said.
Later, Xia Libing didn't talk more about this topic, and began to talk about the information they got from Officer Xiao Zhao's "Dream in a Dream" tonight.
Relying on Lao Xia's "professional guidance", Xiang Kun learned that Police Officer Xiao Zhao and his companions came across Mi Qiao and his group when they were going to the area where the body was found in Zihuan Mountain.
It happened that when that companion had previously assisted the Yangcheng police in investigating a certain case, he had read Mi Qiao’s information and recognized her, so he notified Police Officer Xiao Zhao’s branch and mobilized people to stop Mi Qiao’s car. Brought back to the game, which is the scene that Xiang Kun and Lao Xia saw when they turned around on the way back from the airport.
After the people from Yangcheng arrived in the evening, Mi Qiao acted very cooperatively and explained the Guo Tianxiang case very clearly, letting the Yangcheng police know some information that they had not noticed or found before.
Officer Xiao Zhao and his companions were also allowed to participate in the interrogation.
The two of them originally thought that through the identity of "Chen Tianhua", they could dig out the whereabouts of Guo Tianxiang, or other major cases hidden behind Mi Qiao that might be involved.
However, the leaders of the bureau suddenly gave instructions, which is equivalent to endorsing the identity of "Chen Tianhua" from an official perspective. Except for the information related to the Guo Tianxiang case, other relevant information should not be touched, and Mi Qiao's identity Defined as a witness who assists in handling a case.
Officer Xiao Zhao then judged that Mi Qiao was likely to be a person with an official identity, so he guessed whether he was a police undercover agent. He had a mission next to Guo Tianxiang before. Guo Tianxiang may be aware of her identity. Missing directly. Now Mi Qiao has changed the identity of "Chen Tianhua" and entered Erythrina's "Taiyu Laboratory" undercover, investigating something.
However, Officer Xiao Zhao immediately overturned his guess, because if the police are undercover, even if it is not the police in Yangcheng, but belongs to other provinces and cities, it is impossible for Guo Tianxiang to be wanted for so long without breathing. So even if Mi Qiao is an undercover agent, there is a high probability that he is not from the police.
Because at the time of the encounter in Zihuan Mountain, Mi Qiao and his team were sampling the places struck by lightning, so Police Officer Xiao had a faint suspicion in his mind. Perhaps the official department to which Mi Qiao was affiliated was investigating things like No. 14 Zihuan Mountain. A weird thunderstorm, that flying vehicle on fire, and the like, even they knew the bodies he found.
If this is the case, is it because Mi Qiao stayed with Guo Tianxiang before because he was similar to the male deceased who committed suicide after killing two female companions in Zihuan Mountain?
Are Mi Qiao and his department also aware of the existence of the "many-armed monster"?
For Police Officer Xiao Zhao’s speculations that are half close to the truth and half free of imagination, Xiang Kun still admires them. After all, the real information that Police Officer Zhao can access is really very limited, and he and he will sometimes have to get involved. Lao Xia's "dream" influences judgment, and it is quite difficult to draw such a "guess".
Through the information about Mi Qiao learned by Police Officer Xiao Zhao, Xiang Kun and Lao Xia also came to a lot of judgments about "Shen Xing Technology".
Xiang Kun is well aware of Mi Qiao's original origins. Before she helped Guo Tianxiang do things, she was a "hacker" who used to dig out other people's privacy and extortion. She did not have any official identity.
However, since her identity as "Chen Tianhua" can get official endorsement, it means that many things that "Shenxing Technology" is doing have official permission.
It is easy to understand that the government knows the existence of "institutions for studying'mutant organisms'" and secretly controls and provides support.
But Xiang Kun is somewhat puzzled as to why it is not the department directly under the government to do these things, but to rely on "Shenxing Technology"?
Through his previous investigations, he was very sure that the secret department of "Shenxing Technology" was not officially made through the shell of "Shenxing Technology", but was really done by the people of "Shenxing Technology".
This can be corroborated from the dreams of Fang Pingfang, Zhou Rui, Li Shizheng and others, or their personal information.
If it is purely for confidentiality, the government can establish a secret department on its own, and there is no need to rely on a private technology company to do these things.
There may be some deeper reasons behind this.
If you can understand this, you might be able to know why the public doesn’t know anything about
mutant organisms
, why the government did not conduct research and investigations on
mutant organisms
with great fanfare, and why the whole world does not seem to be on the surface. Knowing that "mutant creatures" exist the same.
Xiang Kun and Lao Xia discussed this for a long time, and both put forward some speculations of their own, but there is no definite evidence yet, and further investigation is still needed to verify.
Xiang Kun said: "The people behind'Shenxing Technology' should use the power of the police to investigate Guo Tianxiang's whereabouts in the open. They secretly search for deficiencies and assist in the investigation. After all, in China, one person must be tracked down. There is nothing stronger than the police's whereabouts. This further proves from the side that'Shenxing Technology' has a connection with the official, and they can guarantee that after Guo Tianxiang is controlled by the police, they will have a way to get in touch."
Xia Libing asked: "If the police re-investigate Guo Tianxiang's trajectory in the pedestrian street, will they find your presence?"
Xiang Kun shook his head: "I shouldn't. Even if I know of my existence, there is no way to lock my identity."
Before the police investigated Guo Tianxiang's whereabouts, they only knew that Guo Tianxiang and Mi Qiao disappeared after they went to Liushi, and did not know his exact trajectory in Liushi.
Although Mi Qiao knew about Guo Tianxiang's trajectory in the pedestrian street that afternoon, he knew exactly what Guo Tianxiang was doing during that time, so when investigating Guo Tianxiang's whereabouts, he would not check his past trajectories.
But now, Mi Qiao removed the information she knew about the "vampire" and told the police that the police wanted to investigate Guo Tianxiang's whereabouts, but it was very likely to re-investigate Guo Tianxiang in the pedestrian street on the afternoon of October 8. Trajectory of action.
Lao Xia is worried about whether the police investigation will discover the existence of such a "behind oriole" Xiang Kun.
This possibility Xiang Kun has actually been deduced many times. Since the midnight patrol was accidentally discovered by Police Officer Chen through the surveillance system, he was particularly concerned about surveillance. That time he went to Guo Tianxiang’s appointment, he did not only do it from the outside. After disguising, I always pay attention to the location of the surveillance along the way, and most of the time I can ensure that my face will not be photographed.
There are three places where the police may be aware of his existence. One is the waiter at the restaurant where Mi Qiao and Guo Tianxiang ate. He asked to watch the surveillance on the grounds that his companion lost something, and the other is the parking lot. The security guard, he watched the surveillance on the grounds of catching adulterers. People in these two places knew the iconic feature of "dirty braids", so they knew the direction of his inquiry.
The third is that Zhang Jinan, a local who Miqiao contacted through the dark web, was "intimidated" by Xiang Kun entering the room. Although he did not see his face, he must be aware of his existence.
When Mi Qiao told the police about Guo Tianxiang's case, he did not mention the process of online "phishing", and naturally did not mention Zhang Jinan, so this point can be ignored.
As for restaurant waiters and parking lot security, Xiang Kun is also not too worried, because this happened on October 8th last year. More than four months have passed. Many people's memories may become blurred. Most businesses monitor Have also been washed off. Moreover, even if the police really asked the waiter and the security guards, the focus was on Guo Tianxiang, and Xiang Kun, the "researcher on the back foot," might not be mentioned. Even if he knows, there is no corresponding monitoring screen for comparison, and he cannot be investigated for identity, and he cannot be threatened temporarily.
After listening to Xiang Kun's explanation, Xia Libing nodded, and after two seconds of silence, she suddenly puffed her cheeks and said: "bú~~~~~".
Xiang Kun was stunned, but then from this peculiar voice and the change in pitch that slowly increased, he thought of the confession of Police Officer Xiao Zhao in "Dream in a Dream" not long ago, and realized what Lao Xia was imitating.
Looking at Lao Xia's round eyes and slightly puffed cheeks, and a dazed hair on top of his head that was not tied up, Xiang Kun finally laughed out of control.
Lao Xia disregarded the image’s humor and brought great results. Xiang Kun looked at Lao Xia who was serious as if nothing had happened after "bú", but the more he thought about it, the more funny he became, and the more he laughed, the more he wanted to laugh. Tears are coming out soon.
For a while, the room was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
...
Star city.
Before the sun came out at four o'clock in the morning, Liu Shiling had already got up from the bed, ran to the egg yolk pie on the sofa cushion in the corner of the room, squatted on the ground, gently touched the cat's head, with a worried expression on her face.
"Egg Yolk Pie~EbookFREE.me~What the is going on with you?"
Yolk Pie raised his eyelids slightly, glanced at his little master, but his fleshy body was motionless, and he did not respond actively with meows as usual, as if he had fallen asleep again.
Liu Shiling went to get the freeze-dried egg yolk pie favorite, as well as other cat snacks, and even her own favorite snacks, all moved over and lured it in front of the egg yolk pie.
"Egg pie, come eat it, I will eat it all for you. Only today can you eat it! Eat as much as you want! If you don’t eat it, if you don’t eat it yet... I... I will eat them all. That's it!" Liu Shiling said with "threatening".
But the egg yolk pie, which is especially greedy on weekdays, is still lying on his stomach. It seems that sleeping is the top priority.
There were tears in Liu Shiling's eyes: "Egg Yolk Pie, are you going to die? You are not allowed to die..."
Hearing the sound of the little fat girl moving snacks and talking to the cat, Shiling's mother was also awakened, standing at the door of the room in her clothes, looking helplessly at her daughter and cat.
