Worth the world

Chapter 28 Dreamland

The sound of closing the door came to my ears like a mantra.

Through a wooden door, the portraitist breathed a sigh of relief, at least psychologically.

After entering the door, Lin Yunqi poured a glass of water for each of them, and then sat on the sofa with a portrait, with an intriguing expression.

Nie Yan saw that his expression was wrong, and asked, "You know him?"

Lin Yun got up to fetch a graduation photo.

In comparison, the person in the graduation photo is a little thinner, with slightly sunken cheeks, and the overall facial features are not much different from the portrait.In addition, the person in the photo wore a pair of glasses, which made him look more refined, and he didn't wear earrings.

"This is……"

"My college roommate."

As far as Nie Yan knew, Kang Yu, an intern member of the special team, was once Lin Yunqi's roommate, and now another one risked his life to steal.

"How many people are in your bedroom?"

"Add me, just three."

"A profession?"

As an intern, Kang Yu would not be able to pay attention to the other party's major under normal circumstances.

Lin Yun started: "Yes, Department of Philosophy."

"..."

Nie Yan's eyes moved. It's very good. In a sense, none of the three are normal.

"Actually, everyone's relationship is average. Kang Yu moved out to rent a house in his senior year. By the way, the person who invited me to the supernatural competition last time to crack down on fakes was his later roommate."

"..."

Now that there is a suspect, Lin Yunqi inevitably wants to recall this old classmate. Looking at the portrait, he said, "This person is called Zheng Ning. He often participates in some group activities and has strong organizational skills."

"Do you have any personal grievances with him?"

Lin Yunqi shook his head: "I don't even meet many times. I was busy with part-time jobs when I was in college, and I still have to finish my studies."

The portrait artist couldn't help but said a digression: "I've seen many people waste their studies for part-time jobs, and you can do both, which is pretty amazing."

At least graduated normally.

Lin Yunqi was also not modest, and said bluntly: "I'm rather vulgar. To put it bluntly, it's for the principal's scholarship and the national scholarship."

Painter: "..."

Nie Yan's focus has never been biased, and he asked for information related to Zheng Ning in detail. Unfortunately, because the two parties are not familiar with each other, Lin Yunqi can give very little information.

"If you think of anything, call me anytime."

Lin Yunqi sent them to the door.

The portrait artist tried his best not to lower his head, for fear of seeing a starving ghost, his legs began to tremble uncontrollably again.

Naturally, it was impossible to ask only one side of the question. As Zheng Ning's other roommate, Kang Yu inevitably accepted a few questions after Nie Yan returned.

Although Nie Yan didn't explain the reason, but the more Kang Yu thought about it, the more wrong he became. After hesitating, he sent a message to Lin Yunqi, wanting to ask him to meet.

"Okay." Lin Yunqi had no objection, and even readily agreed.

As a lesson from the past, it is better to be friendly to old classmates. If you offend him, you may be the next Zheng Ning.

The meeting place was at a small restaurant near his home.

Sitting facing each other, Lin Yunqi covered his inner thoughts by lowering his head and drinking fruit juice.

When they met in Zheng Liangtian's rented house last time, Lin Yunqi was really shocked by Kang Yu's performance. Until now, he still looks at each other with complicated eyes.

"I'm not out of my mind." Kang Yu's mouth twitched.

His talisman is only effective for ghosts, who would have thought that the foreign body suddenly disappeared at that time, making him look like a crazy person.

Lin Yunqi thought for a while, and in order to appear friendly, he said, "The one sitting in front of you is the champion of this year's Supernatural Mystery Contest. I believe we have something in common."

Kang Yupi smiled but didn't laugh.

...I really want to take a needle and sew this man's mouth shut.

The Supernatural Mystery Contest, that was the crown he had dreamed of winning!

Kang Yu took a deep breath and focused on business: "Team Nie came back today and asked me about Zheng Ning."

"It should be a routine questioning." Lin Yunqi: "Not long ago Zheng Ning came to my house to steal something, and a beggar happened to see it."

Kang Yu really couldn't figure out what was worth stealing from Lin Yunqi's family: "I remember that Zheng Ning's family background is not bad."

Lin Yun started his head, and he was at an upper-middle level in memory.

"Maybe the purpose is not to rob, but to hurt people." Kang Yu curled his lips: "He's not the same as the outside, and he's not just jealous."

"envy?"

"Don't tell me you didn't see it."

Because there is still training in the afternoon, Kang Yu is too lazy to speak ill of others based on speculation: "In short, he is very ambitious and likes to treat us as imaginary enemies. Let's not talk about it, I will go back to the group for training first."

The picture of the group of demons dancing wildly came to mind uncontrollably.

As if seeing what Lin Yunqi was thinking, Kang Yu repeatedly emphasized that it was not mental rehabilitation training.

"Understood," Lin Yunqi responded perfunctorily, "You are not sick."

"..."

But Kang Yu did remind him that Lin Yunqi never knew that Zheng Ning was jealous of them.

What are you jealous of?

As an orphan himself, Kang Yu devoted himself to studying in college, so he wasn't too gregarious.

In the afternoon, Nie Yan called and told Lin Yunqi to be careful: "Zheng Ning and her parents had a falling out, and they didn't know where Zheng Ning was or what he was doing.

"I know, I'll keep an eye out."

Nie Yan has always had a clean and neat style. He could hear the dullness in Lin Yunqi's voice, and finally said one more sentence: "Don't worry too much, it will happen sooner or later when he is arrested."

"I'm not upset about Zheng Ning's affairs, it's just that I'm a little exposed today, and I have to work part-time later."

Now Nie Yan almost has a bad conditioned reflex to the word part-time job: "Fake counterfeiting?"

Lin Yunqi smiled and said, "Of course not." He was also a little vague: "Help in filming a MV or something, anyway, it's a one-time part-time job."

Not intending to talk about this job in detail, Lin Yunqi turned to mention Wu Shengshu and spiritual compensation.

Nie Yan asked him for an account number, saying that he was already in the process and would arrive within a few days.

After finishing the call, Lin Yunqi breathed a sigh of relief, the process of waiting for the money to arrive is always pleasant.

The burglary at home seemed to be just an accident, and Lin Yunqi was very careful no matter whether he was at home or out for the next few days.During this period, no suspicious persons were encountered, and life began to return to normal.

After several days of high temperature, finally ushered in a cool weather.

Enjoying the cool breeze blowing in from the window, Lin Yunqi leaned on the sofa with his pillow on the cushion, and recorded this month's remuneration.

Overall, the numbers are considerable.

I don't know if it's his illusion, but today the small book is written very smoothly, as if this book also feels the power of money and is calculating Lin Yunqi's income.

And it's very satisfying.

The reason for earning money is to please himself, Lin Yunqi finished sorting out his income, quickly changed his clothes, and prepared to go to the supermarket to buy ingredients for hot pot.

From the fourth floor to the second floor, there are garbage bags at the door of many houses. In the past, they would take them away and throw them away before going to work the next day.But today, the rubbish is still there.

In summer, garbage is prone to smell if left for a long time. Lin Yunqi was about to take it away when the door suddenly opened.

Seeing him, the resident seemed to understand something, and scratched his head embarrassingly: "I'm going to throw it away."

The two went downstairs one after another, and the resident explained: "I slept so soundly. I had a really good dream. I couldn't bear to wake up when the alarm rang, so I took half a day off from the company and continued to sleep."

Lin Yunqi: "Woke up once, can the dream continue?"

"Continued." The resident turned around and said with great surprise: "The dream I had later was even more beautiful than the previous one."

The two parted at the intersection, and when Lin Yunqi caught a glimpse of the residents throwing rubbish out of the corner of their eyes, they seemed to be full of ideas.

Compared with normal working days, there are obviously more people in the community today, mainly concentrated in the building where Lin Yunqi lives.

There were two people leaning on the fitness equipment, looking like they hated seeing each other late, one said that they overslept and did not go to work, and the other said that their company worked overtime day and night, and he went to the boss with the contract law in a fit of anger, and took an early leave During the annual leave, I can't wait to sleep from day to night.

The weather was indeed suitable for sleeping last night, and it is still suitable even now.The sky is gray, and the annoying chirping of cicadas and crickets is gone in early autumn, and the coolness seems to penetrate into the pores.

Not only the residents of Lin Yunqi's community were sleeping deeply, but also Wu Shengshu who was under guard.

The special team imprisoned a lot of foreign objects, even if the air conditioner is not turned on when the temperature is the highest, it will not be too hot.

Nie Yan is an extremely cautious person. After realizing that something was wrong with Wu Shengshu, he specially told the guards that no matter what the details are, if something is wrong, they can report it at any time.

One of the guards was a member who had just joined the job. He was very thoughtful and actually reported a piece: Wu Shengshu sleeps for a long time every day, exceeding fourteen hours.

Nie Yan called up a few surveillance clips. In the video, Wu Shengshu looked like he was just sleeping.

"Sleep..."

Nie Yan seemed to have thought of something, and drove to Lin Yunqi's community.

When doing the portrait simulation not long ago, Nie Yan deliberately avoided asking how the starving ghost was tricked. The powerful foreign object was obviously in a bad mood. If he insisted on exposing the scar, the starving ghost might run away on the spot.

But one thing is certain, it is not a direct attack, otherwise the commotion will definitely not be small.The most likely attack was a phantom attack. After seeing Wu Shengshu's monitoring, Nie Yan had a new idea, a dream.

Lin Yunqi's college classmate may have a powerful dream-like foreign object by his side.In order to let the starving ghost indulge in a dream, a huge amount of energy must be spent. In the process, the whole community will inevitably be affected.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the community, Nie Yan saw Bai Ci in the restaurant before he had time to investigate.

The other party was sitting near the door, with a straight posture, it didn't look like he was here for dinner at all.

In fact, Bai Ci only ordered a dessert, and the skeleton dog poked its head out from time to time in his pocket, the kind whose jaws couldn't be closed, staring in one direction obsessively: "Beauty boss."

"..."

For two consecutive days, Skeleton Dog persuaded Bai Ci to take him to the side of the road to see beautiful women for 5 minutes.Feeling the scent of perfume in the breeze, it suddenly shook its tailbone in dissatisfaction: "I smell something nasty."

Bai Ci raised his eyelids, but there was no special reaction.

Nie Yan came over, and said straight to business: "Dream-like foreign objects are quite rare, and nightmares don't have such a great power to make starving ghosts dazed, and only Nankemeng is left."

His purpose of saying this was nothing more than to test Bai Ci's reaction so as to prove his own judgment.

It's a pity that Bai Ci still had that icy expression, as if he would not be moved by anything outside.

Skeleton Dog yawned: "This is my honorable master. I want to see his demeanor change when he is disturbed by emotions. In his next life."

Just as Nie Yan was about to speak, he caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye, pursed his lips and did not continue.

"Are you still troubled by mosquito bites? Are you still worried about the strong smell and short efficacy of traditional insecticides..."

There is a small TV in the upper right corner of the store entrance, and an advertisement is playing at the moment.

In the picture, Lin Yunqi is wearing an apron, holding an insecticide in his hand, pressing lightly, under the exaggerated advertising effect, the sprayed fine mist is shining with golden light——

"King Kong brand insecticide, just spray it lightly, and the mosquitoes will die!"

Nie Yan: "..."

Bai Ci: "..."

Skeleton Dog: "..."

There were two people and a dog, and it was the dog who broke the silence first, and its voice was a bit floaty: "Then...why did Lin Yunqi appear in the insecticide advertisement?"

No one answered.

Another minute passed, and the skeleton dog said to himself: "Yes, not long ago he caught Gu insects in the supernatural competition and became the spokesperson of the new species."

And it happened to be a bug.

The owner of the supermarket across the street came out carrying an advertising stand. This insecticide has only recently been launched and is doing crazy marketing and promotion.

On the signboard, Lin Yunqi smiled like a little sun, holding up with his left hand, with a striking 'buy two get one free' written on it.

Skeleton Dog: "My honorable master, it's time for you to play and lick. Let's buy two bottles to support it."
