Shen Shi adjusted the light of the desk lamp to the weakest, fearing that it would affect the little rabbit's rest.Holding the magazine close to the light source, he was still studying the photo taken by the blue whistle.

The phone vibrated, and Nanfeng sent a text message asking if he was asleep.

--【not yet. 】

Shen Shi recalled the information and put the phone in a conspicuous place beside the bed so as not to miss the information.

After waiting for a long time, Nanfeng sent another message.

——[She made a fuss and is now asleep.I didn't argue with her, don't worry. 】

Shen Shi hesitated for a while, and edited repeatedly for a long time before sending it out.

The information over there came first.

——【Don't boil over, brother Shi, go to bed early. 】

Shen Shi smiled, and deleted those seventy and eighty-eight orders on the screen.

—— [Okay, you too. 】

Putting down his phone, Shen Shi got up and lit a cigarette outside the house.Yuhuo Lane is not far from the railway station, where you can hear the whistle of the train passing by.

There is always a train passing through Anseong at this time in the middle of the night, and after a short stop, it will go to the distance again.He remembered that Huang Mao said that he was tricked into taking the train to Ancheng, and he didn't know which of these passing trains would pass through Huang Mao's hometown.

Would he want to go back?Has he gone back?

……

In the early morning, Shen Shi's cell phone vibrated again and received a new message.

This time it was not the south wind.

——[The blue whistle was found.At nine o'clock in the morning, the Fifth Hospital. 】

Shen Shi suddenly sat up from the bed, looked back at the sleeping little rabbit, and dialed Nanfeng's number.

"Nanfeng, there is news from Luo Xun. Take care of Xiaotu for me."

On the other end of the phone, Nanfeng's voice did not sound sleepy at all.

He said softly, "Okay, I'll go now."

Shen Shi tiptoedly closed the door, he had given the house key to Nan Feng in advance.

The fog in Yuhuo Lane had not yet dissipated, Shen Shi took a deep breath, and walked towards the Fifth Hospital.

Ancheng Fifth Hospital, also known as Ancheng Mental Hospital.

……

Shen Shi took the soy milk and steamed stuffed bun that Luo Xun threw to him, and casually dealt with them.Luo Xun obviously didn't sleep either, his eyes were black and blue, and he didn't bother to shave his beard.

"Lan Whistle, whose real name is Sun Zhao, has a family history of mental illness. A few years ago, his girlfriend ran away with others, and became ill after being stimulated, and was sent here for treatment by his family." Luo Xun introduced and smoked a cigarette, "Hiss... schizophrenia, delusion, anti-social tendencies, this person is very sick."

"Team Luo has good speed."

Luo Xun waved his hand: "What's the use of finding someone, just be prepared that you won't be able to ask anything."

Shen Shi smiled: "Not necessarily. Let's go and have a look first."

After the two greeted the director in advance, they walked through the corridor and walked towards the ward.

At 09:30 in the morning, it was the time for the medical staff to make rounds and distribute medicines one by one.When Shen Shi entered the ward, he saw a fat man with curly hair facing the window and looking out of the room in a daze.

"Blue whistle." Luo Xun called out to him.

The man turned his head in response, nodded politely and smiled when he saw Luo Xun and Shen Shi, and stood up.

"Hello, may I have your surname?" Lan Whistle extended his hand politely.

Luo Xun exchanged glances with Shen Shi, and shook hands with him one by one.

"My name is Luo"

"Shen."

Blue Whistle nodded with a smile, and shook hands with the two of them cordially.

"Editor Luo, Director Shen."

"..."

Before Luo Xun could say, "This person looks quite normal," he was stuck in his throat.

"Why am I the editor and he is the director?" Luo Xun asked puzzled.

Lan Whistle looked at Shen Shi with a little more admiration, and flattered: "Who doesn't know that Director Shen is young and promising."

Shen Shi smiled, thinking that this person is really ill.

Without talking too much about other things, Luo Xun went straight to the point.He showed Lan Whistle the picture on the cover of the magazine, and asked, "Did you take the picture?"

Lan Whistle patted his forehead: "Hey, look at my memory!"

He stood up, went to the bedside table, opened the drawer, and took out a stack of squarely cut papers.

"This is the autograph promised to you. Take it. Send it to the fans of our magazine. Don't make people wait."

Luo Xun glanced at Shen Shi speechlessly, walked aside with his arms around his shoulders, and said in a low voice, "I don't think there's anything to do, Brother Shen."

Shen Shi patted Luo Xun comfortingly, then turned around and returned to Lan Whistle.

Shen Shi: "Lan Da photographer."

"Hey, Director Shen, tell me." The blue whistle was respectful.

Shen Shi held the photo in front of Lan Whistle, and praised with a smile: "The more we look at this photo, the more advanced we think it was taken. Look at the composition and lighting...it's really good!"

Shen Shi didn't understand either, so he babbled nonsense.Blue Whistle's brow was beaming with praise.

"Where is it, Director Shen has won the award."

"It's just..." Shen Shi changed the subject and pointed to the two black dots on the photo, "Why is there a flaw here. It's a pity, it's a pity."

Lan Whistle's expression changed, and he smiled perfunctorily: "Yes, yes..."

Shen Shi and Luo Xun, who stood beside him, caught his dodging eyes for a moment.

Shen Shi hurriedly asked questions, trying to get more information.But Lan Whistle started talking nonsense after that, his attention was obviously lost, and in the end he was even a little manic, desperately pulling his few hairs.

With the cooperation of doctors and nurses, Lan Whistle was injected with sedative drugs.The director said that the patient's mood is unstable, and it may be inconvenient to continue visiting today.

Luo Xun knew that he couldn't force it, so he took Shen Shi out of the mental hospital first.

Near noon, the two casually found a restaurant near their home to have some food.Luo Xun had to rush back to the bureau in the afternoon, so he didn't drink.

Shen Shi: "There's something wrong with Lan Whistle's eyes, I suspect he saw something at that time."

Luo Xun nodded: "I think so too, but his mental state doesn't seem to be faking. It's happened in the cases I've been in contact with before. Potential witnesses were stimulated and sent to a mental hospital. What useful information did he get there, and then he found a breakthrough point from other places... This situation is a bit fucking difficult."

"I'll go again this afternoon."

Luo Xun looked up at Shen Shi: "So persistent?"

"Ha, that man is quite interesting. Anyway, I have nothing to do, let's talk to him again."

Luo Xun nodded and didn't stop: "All right, Director Shen. If you have any problems, please contact me."

……

This afternoon, Shen Shi really went back to look for Lan Whistle, but not surprisingly, he still didn't find out why.

According to the little nurse in the clinic, Lan Whistle is actually quite pitiful.After being sent for treatment by his family, no one came to see him again.Now I owe a lot of hospitalization fees, and if I don't pay, I will probably be kicked out.

When they called to urge them, Lan Whistle's family would prevaricate a few words every time, and then they didn't even answer the phone.

Shen Shi turned his head and looked at the bald fat man who was kneeling by the bed and concentrating on practicing his signature on the piece of paper, and felt quite uncomfortable.He went to the payment office to pay for one month's hospitalization fee for him, and even Shen Shi couldn't afford it.

For the next few days, Shen Shi would report to the Fifth Hospital on time, and each time he brought milk and fruit.Soon, I became acquainted with the chief physician and those young clinical nurses.

Shen Shi is a tricky person, if he wants to coax people with snacks, everyone will easily buy it.Gradually, even if he came a little late or stayed a little longer, no one bothered him even after the visiting hours.

Nan Feng also came here once with Shen Shi, looked at Shen Shi who was chatting with Lan Whistle and basking in the sun, half-jokingly praised his half-way son as "really filial", and was taught a lesson by Shen Shi strangling his neck.

Or it might be that hard work pays off, that night Lan Zhizi opened his mouth to ask Shen Shi to help him find someone.

"Her name is Lu Xue, and she lives outside Nanguan in the old city. Can you bring her to see me?" Lan Whistle turned to look at Shen Shi, with pleading eyes.

"Is it your sweetheart?"

Lan Whistle smiled wryly: "She did something that I'm sorry for, but now I don't hate her anymore, I just think about it."

"What can you do after seeing her, old grandson." Shen Shi peeled a banana and handed it to Lan Whistle, persuading him, "She already has a new life, so please let yourself go."

This night, the blue whistle was unexpectedly sober, Shen Shi even felt that he was no different from a normal person.

Lan Whistle looked at the Huoshaoyun in the distance, and used his hands to spell out a rectangular frame to cover the cloud, choosing the best composition.

"I took a picture of her on her birthday and never had a chance to give it to her."

"Give it to me, and I'll deliver it for you."

Lan Whistle shook his head, then looked at Shen Shi: "Director Shen, do you have a sweetheart?"

Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "I guess so."

"Then you should understand that I have to send this photo in person."

The little nurse next to him who was rounding the ward couldn't help but burst out laughing, thinking that this handsome Shen Da was too interesting, actually seriously talking about love with a mental patient.

In the end, he was still moved for a long time, he is really a considerate and caring man, who knows which happy woman will become his sweetheart?

"All right, I'll find her for you." Shen Shi opened his mouth, feeling more and more like a neighborhood committee aunt.

Lan whistle touched Shen Shi's hand: "Director Shen, I knew you were a good person!"

Shen Shi stuffed the banana into Lan Whistle's mouth: "Eat it."

While chewing the bananas, Lan Whistle said to Shen Shi, "Don't worry, I won't ask you to help me for nothing." He put his hand after eating the bananas into his mouth and sucked it twice, swallowing his saliva .

"Without Xiaoxue, I don't need the photos from that night, I'll give them to you! I don't want any of the money I get!" Lan Whistle patted his chest, looking like he was donating money.

Shen Shi's gaze suddenly deepened at the moment before dark.

……

Shen Shi first found Nanguan according to the address given by Lan Whistle, and was told that Lu Xue didn't live here long ago.With Luo Xun's help, Shen Shi found her in the dilapidated building in Hexi at noon the next day.

The door of Lu Xue's house was half open, the inside was messy, and there was an unpleasant musty smell, which seemed to be neglected.

She was kicking and pulling a slipper with one foot, and she was holding a little boy like a black monkey, and she was whipping his ass with the other shoe, and kept swearing obscene words in her mouth.

Standing at the door, Shen Shiguang could fully feel the daily life of this family.

He knocked on the door symbolically: "Is it Lu Xue's house?"

Lu Xue raised her eyes ferociously, and found a handsome young man standing outside the door. He brushed his hair in embarrassment, and stood up.

The little black monkey took the opportunity to get down from Lu Xue, stopped its fake crying, made a face at Lu Xue, and ran away without a trace.

"Who are you looking for?" Lu Xue leaned against the wall and asked.

Shen Shi smelled an unpleasant smell coming from her mouth, and it seemed that she hadn't washed herself very much.

Lu Xue had a few brown spots on her face, and her disheveled hair was pulled back casually.It's not the pretty and smart woman that Lan Whistle mentioned.

"Sun Zhao asked me to come." Shen Shi still nodded at Lu Xue and introduced.

Hearing Sun Zhao, Lu Xue's face darkened instantly: "I don't know him!"

Lu Xue turned around and was about to close the door, but Shen Shi blocked it and leaned on the door frame.

"Sister, I don't want to talk nonsense with you. Sun Yan has a photo that he wants to show you face to face, so you just say what you want before you come with me."

Lu Xue looked at Shen Shi suspiciously: "Who are you, Sun Zhao?"

"Editor."

"Then your salary is not low, is it?" Lu Xue rolled her eyes.

Shen Shi was really too lazy to talk nonsense with her, so he said bluntly: "Tell me how much you want."

Lu Xue sniffed and stretched out her hand to make a five.

Shen Shi took out 500 yuan from his wallet, and Lu Xue rolled his eyes: "Are you a beggar? Five thousand!"

Shen Shi sneered, put the money back into his wallet, and took a step forward.

Lu Xue stepped back in fright: "You, what are you doing?!"

"I don't have that much money for you, just five hundred, whether you want it or not. But I have to tell you, I have plenty of ways to let you go with me. If you don't believe me, let's try."

Shen Shi licked his molars, turned around and left.

"Wait!" Lu Xue stopped him from behind, "Five hundred is five hundred! I'll go with you."
