Chapter 19

Qingmu stared blankly at the rows of cypress trees retreating quickly outside the window. The mountain in the distance was covered by thin fog and cast a huge shadow.

Hu Xing thought Aoki was scared silly by his problem. He laughed and said, "you can't really kill people? Alas, why don't you talk!"

Aoki looked back and said, "how could the murderer tell you the police? Don't ask me such an idiot question in the future!"

"You..."

Hu Xing was so angry that she wanted to pick up the steering wheel and hit Qingmu's head. I really don't know what brand of paste is in this guy's head!

"Go on, how do you know that the scene in his dream is not true?" Hu Xing said angrily.

"Have you ever heard the story that Indians can't see ships?" Aoki asked.

Hu Xing shook his head.

"On October 12, 1492, Columbus discovered the American continent and boarded Watling island in the Bahamas for the first time. At that time, when their fleet approached Watling Island, the Indians on the island were unaware. Until the Europeans appeared in front of them, the Indians were still wondering where these people similar to them came from. In fact, the main ship‘ The Santa Maria is 23 meters long. When the mast of the whole fleet opens, the scene is spectacular. It is impossible for normal people to see it. "

"The reason why Indians turn a blind eye is that they don't have the concept of sailing in their mind, and they don't have any memory in this regard. When sailing appears, their consciousness makes a judgment of 'selective blindness' in a short time, because they can't give a reasonable explanation to what is in front of them through the combination of brain memory."

Hu Xing thought for a moment and said, "I seem to remember what you said. I've seen this story before, but I always think it's wrong. According to you, there's a certain truth. In fact, they are not invisible, but unconscious, so even if the big brain receives visual information, they don't respond in time, do they?"

"That's right!" Aoki said. "All the materials of dreams come from our memory. People can't see things beyond our cognition in dreams, that is, you can't dream of things you haven't seen."

"For example, an Englishman who has never been in contact with Chinese will not dream of Chinese characters when he dreams. Even if he has heard of the characteristics of Chinese characters, such as squares, hieroglyphs, etc., he will only simulate a font combined with letters, images or wedge characters he has seen in his dream, and it is impossible to dream of real Chinese characters with horizontal and vertical apostrophes."

"Therefore, all the ghosts, demons and aliens we see look like people with noses and eyes."

Aoki paused a little, looked at Hu Xing, and then continued:

"Freud regarded sex as the most important component and cause of dreams, because sex is the most instinctive demand of human beings. Both men and women have dreamed of the opposite sex's body, but it is difficult to determine who that person is, especially teenagers. They may not have seen a complete opposite sex's body at all."

"People often dream of the opposite sex they like, but because they haven't seen his or her body, only that face is real, and the body may be peeked at when your neighbor's aunt took a bath when you were a child, or an actor in an island action film. If you like someone who is not so sure, even the dream face will change."

Hu Xing said, "you mean that guy's dream is not a person at all, but the combination of all the women he has seen?"

Aoki nodded and said, "yes, maybe he loves it, maybe he hates it."

"It's incredible." Hu Xing suddenly recalled many dreams she had, and her face was suddenly hot.

The car turned into a path surrounded by small quarries, many of which were full of water. They stopped in front of a big pond.

Vice captain Gao got out of the car, pointed to the pond in front and said, "it used to be a big stone mine. After the ban, some people used it as a fish pond to raise fish. Later, there was an accident, it was rectified and it has been abandoned. The victim was found here, but this is not the first scene, so there is no valuable clue."

Hu Xinggang wanted to check again, but Aoki said, "Oh, yes, there can't be any clues here! So, vice captain, please go back, and we'll go back!"

Play with me!

Vice captain Gao widened his eyes and really wanted to sink this guy to the bottom of the lake. He really couldn't accompany him anymore. Without saying a word, he got into the car, slammed the door, pointed to Aoki and said, "boy, remember you!"

Hu Xing looked funny. Anyway, she didn't like vice captain Gao with a big belly, so she didn't come out.

Watching vice captain Gao's car go away, Hu Xing asked Aoki, "what are we doing now?"

Aoki said, "why do you not has the final say?"

Hu Xing thought for a moment, as if it were so, but on second thought, she found that she was taken into the ditch by this guy. You asked to come to the scene, okay? When he came, he said he didn't look at it. He was so angry that he couldn't say everything.

Hu Xing said, "our police should also listen to the opinions of the people."

Aoki said, "then go back to bed."

Hu Xing said, "I knew you were going to be poor. All right, what do you want? Say it quickly!"

Aoki said, "you have investigated Ma Fuqing. Do you know where he lives?"

"I know," said Hu Xing.

Aoki said, "you can turn on the navigation and adjust the route from here to Ma Fuqing's house."

"Oh, how can I find that you speak more and more like our history team." Hu Xing joked and opened the navigation, and then exclaimed, "ah! It's so close that it's less than 15 kilometers."

She pointed out the navigation results to Aoki: "this is our current place, belonging to Lu county. This is Ma Fuqing's house, belonging to Tong County. I didn't expect the two places to be so close."

Aoki shook his head and said, "it's nothing to look at."

"Then you ask me to check the navigation!" Hu Xing said.

Aoki said, "the police should check it slowly. Let's go and see if Ma Fuqing is there."

……

About Ma Fuqing, Hu Xing couldn't find more information from the system. He only knew that he was an ordinary villager in Majiabang, Tongxian county. He worked in other places all year round. He had an elderly mother and a mentally disordered brother at home.

Aoki and Hu Xing first made a circle around Majiabang, then parked their car in the open space at the head of the village and entered the village.

The weather is very hot. I can't see anyone outside. I finally met an aunt and asked the way.

"Oh, you're looking for Fuqing. It's right behind. It's on the second floor."

Aoki and Hu Xing thanked aunt, turned a corner along the path, came to Ma Fuqing's house and rang the doorbell.

The doorbell in the countryside was either broken or particularly loud. Hu Xing once recalled the recess bell on the primary school campus.

It was an old lady who came to open the door and asked them who they were looking for. They said they were looking for Ma Fuqing.

"What are you looking for him for?" the old lady looked a little unfriendly.

Hu Xing said, "we are ma Fuqing's friends..."

Before she finished, the old lady slammed the door and said coldly, "No."

Hu Xing closed the door and almost wanted to take out her certificate for business. She looked at Aoki and continued to ring the doorbell.

After another half day, the door opened.

It was ma Fuqing who opened the door this time.
