Professional hypnotists or psychologists use special techniques, combined with verbal cues, to make humans enter a temporary sleep-like state. In this state, inputting information into the other party's subconscious may evoke depression or forgetfulness. memory.
Deep hypnosis needs to be performed in a very quiet environment. Zhou Yueping took An Luo to the study, closed the curtains, closed the door, and then let An Luo sit on the swivel chair in front of the desk in the most relaxed posture.
"An Luo, close your eyes, try to relax your body, and get rid of all distracting thoughts... Very good, now take a deep breath and count your breaths silently... "
A minute later, seeing An Luo gradually entering a state of light sleep, Zhou Yueping lowered her voice and asked in his ear, "Tell me, what kind of scene did you dream of at first?"
An Luo subconsciously replied: "I dreamed of a car accident..."
"Recall the details of the crash carefully."
"It was a weekend. I went to the suburbs to have a barbecue with my mother and took a lot of photos. Later, she and I switched places and got into the car in front. The car suddenly rolled down the hill on the highway..."
"Anyone else besides you and mom that day?"
"There seems to be a lot of people..."
"Can you remember who they were?"
An Luo frowned and thought for a while, then said, "There is a second uncle, a second aunt, Xiao Mo, and a young photographer."
"Looking forward, how did you and your mother get to the suburbs?"
"Someone drove to pick us up."
"What did your mother tell you before you left?"
"Before I set off... a child was crying and wanted to go with me... He kept holding my hand and calling my brother..."
A memory suddenly popped into my mind—
Twenty years ago, An Luo was only seven years old. The weather was fine that day. He wore white casual clothes and went out with his mother. When he reached the door, a child suddenly rushed over and grabbed his hand. Very aggrieved, he said: "Brother, take me with you..."
An Luo squatted down and gently touched the child's head, "Xiao Rui, my mother has made an appointment with the teacher to come and give you a make-up lesson today. Besides, didn't you just eat barbecue yesterday?"
The child called Xiao Rui curled his lips aggrievedly, "I ate it yesterday, and I want to eat it today..."
At this moment, a young woman came down the stairs, she rubbed the child's hair, and said with a smile: "Xiao Rui, stop making trouble, stay at home and wait for the teacher to give a lecture, next time you will get zero marks in the test, don't say Eat barbecue, no food for a week."
The child curled his lips and pulled An Luo's sleeve aggrievedly, "Brother..."
An Luo reluctantly took his hand away, "I'll bring you something to eat, is this the head office?"
The kid immediately laughed, "I want chicken wings, toast, ham, sausage, meatballs..."
An Luo frowned and interrupted him, "Understood, bring a copy of each."
The child smiled and said, "Brother's words must be counted! I'll wait for you to come back at home!"
The woman glared at him, "You haven't entered the house yet?"
"Oh!" The child stuck out his tongue and made a face, turned and ran into the house.
It didn't take long for a car to drive past the door. The driver got out of the car and said respectfully, "Miss, Second Young Master asked me to pick you up."
An Zhi smiled and said, "Excuse me, Uncle Wu."
When the mother and son went to the outskirts, An Yuqiu's family had already prepared food, and there was a strong aroma from the barbecue grill. An Yuqiu saw An Luo, walked over with a smile, and hugged An Luo with both arms and turned around. After a circle, he kissed An Luo fiercely on the cheek, "Xiao Luo, have you missed Second Uncle?"
"..." An Luo didn't speak, his face was a little stiff.
An Zhi hurriedly smoothed things out next to her, "Okay, alright, let him go, this kid doesn't like to be close to people since he was a child."
An Yuqiu smiled and put An Luo on the ground, squeezed his face and said, "Go play over there, Xiao Mo has baked a lot of your favorite fish balls."
"Yeah." An Luo nodded, turned and walked to the barbecue grill. An Mo was sitting there grilling fish balls. He didn't know how to bake at all. The fish balls were burned into a black ball on the grill.
"Brother." An Mo looked up at An Luo and handed him a bunch of black fish balls on the grill, "Here's a bunch for you, try it, it's delicious."
"This one is too battered to eat. I'll grill it." An Luo frowned and threw away all the fish balls that had been burned into black charcoal. Following An Luo's example, he made a bunch of fish balls and put them on it.
An Yuqiu and his wife and An Zhi came over with a pile of food, and a group of people quickly gathered around the grill and began to eat. Not long after, a motorcycle suddenly stopped not far away, and a young man in jeans and a blue shirt came over with a camera and took a picture of everyone eating barbecue.
An Yuqiu hurriedly waved at him, "Chen Yi is here, I'll be waiting for you."
The young man named Chen Yi naturally walked over to An Zhi and sat down, and asked in a low voice, "Where's Xiao Rui?"
An Zhi said helplessly: "Today, the tutor came to teach him a lesson. This kid is very naughty. He actually gave me a zero in the last test. I told him that if I don't pass the test, don't even think about going out to play."
Chen Yi smiled and said, "He's only five years old, so don't be too strict with him." After that, he looked at An Luo, "Xiao Luo, do you want to take some pictures as a souvenir? I brought a camera here. "
An Zhi obviously likes taking pictures. Hearing this, he immediately took An Luo's hand and said, "Let's go, Xiao Luo, let's go take pictures."
She kept pulling An Luo to take pictures, and took the trouble to do all kinds of funny actions, pinching An Luo's face for a while, and stroking An Luo's head for a while. , An Luo made an excuse and said, "Mom, let's take the photo yourself, I'll go to the bathroom."
"Okay." An Zhi turned around and went with Chen Yi to choose the scenic spot. An Luo was relieved and quickly escaped from her sight.
An Luo did not go to the bathroom, but turned around and walked under the tree in the distance. He was sitting under the tree and wanted to enjoy the shade, but suddenly heard a rush of footsteps behind the tree.
An Luo stuck his head out curiously, and saw his second uncle, An Yuqiu, hurried over with a phone in hand.
His voice was very eager and angry, and even trembled, "Brother, are you crazy?! You will destroy the foundation of the An family for so many years! No, I must not sit idly by! I have to tell you. Father, I believe he will have a solution... Enough! Don't tell me this, you will go to prison one day if you are so unrepentant!"
There seemed to be a heated quarrel between their brothers, and An Yuqiu hung up the phone in anger. Turning back, An Luo suddenly met An Luo's black and shining eyes, An Yuqiu was stunned, and said awkwardly, "Xiao Luo, why are you here?"
An Luo looked at him and asked, "Second uncle, was it my dad's phone call just now?"
An Yuqiu said stiffly, "Uh, yes."
An Luo asked seriously: "What are you arguing about? What happened?"
An Yuqiu's face was a little ugly, and after a moment of silence, she said, "Xiao Luo, you are still young, you can leave this matter alone."
"Second uncle..." An Luo wanted to stop him, but An Yuqiu turned around and left.
Afterwards, An Luo was absent-minded during the barbecue. Until the evening, everyone was finally full and ready to go home. Chen Yi lived nearby and rode his motorcycle back directly. An Luo, because of his ugly face, thought An Zhi was following him. I felt awkward, so I changed seats with An Mo, "Xiao Mo, you and your brother are in the car behind, okay?"
"Okay!" An Mo obediently walked to the back car and sat in the back row with An Luo. The car was still driven by An's family's driver, Uncle Wu, while the car in front was driven by An Yuqiu, his wife and An Zhi. Sit in the back row and chat together.
When An Yuqiu's car was halfway, the tires suddenly slipped, and it rolled down the hill! Uncle Wu braked suddenly, An Luo slammed his head into the glass, the blood dripping from his forehead obscured his vision, and everything in front of him seemed to turn dazzling blood!
Looking down from the broken window, I saw that the car under the hillside exploded with a bang, a fire rose to illuminate the sky, and all the three people in the car were blown to ashes! An Luo heard himself shouting hoarsely, "Mom-mum!"
And An Mo, who was beside him, had already turned pale with fright, and looked down at the hillside with dull eyes, unable to say a word.
What happened after that, but I can no longer remember it, An Luo's memory stopped abruptly as if he had stepped on the brakes.
***
An Luo suddenly opened his eyes and took a deep breath to control his stalled heartbeat. The clear picture of the car exploding was just like what had just happened in front of him. He could even clearly see the scene of his mother in the car being burnt by fire with a hideous face.
An Luo's forehead seeped a layer of cold sweat, and the palms of his hands were also full of sticky sweat.
After a long time, An Luo was freed from the memory, looked at Zhou Yue's calm face in front of him, and exhaled softly.
Zhou Yueping handed An Luo a tissue and asked softly, "What? Do you remember?"
"...No, the memory is still very vague." An Luo didn't tell the other party what he remembered about the car accident. Although he was An Yang's friend and a psychiatrist, he should be trustworthy, but An Luo couldn't completely let go of his guard. . An Luo paused, and then said suspiciously, "I always feel that An Luo's memory has been cut into two parts, that is, the car accident is used as the dividing point. I can't remember what happened before and after the car accident."
Zhou Yueping was silent for a moment and said, "I heard from my parents that the day your mother had a car accident, you hit your head and you were in a coma for a day and a night in the hospital. When you woke up, you didn't remember what happened before."
An Luo said in surprise: "You mean, I had amnesia when I was seven years old?"
Zhou Yueping nodded, "Yes. After you were discharged from the hospital, you didn't remember the past, you were very resistant to people, and you refused to talk to anyone. Your grandfather took you back to the An family to take care of him personally, and asked An Yan, who had been living in France, to come back. Accompany you. You often ask me and Chengping to come to your house to play. With a few of our peers accompanying you all day, you slowly get better."
"So it is." An Luo nodded with a complicated expression.
After being reborn, I dreamed of the scene of the car accident many times. It turned out that An Luo lost his memory because of a car accident when he was seven years old. Perhaps a stress response occurred in the area of the brain responsible for memory, causing those lost memory fragments to reappear in dreams.
Fortunately, this deep hypnosis stimulated the subconscious, and finally completely remembered the details of the car accident that year.
Before the car accident, An Yuqiu and his eldest brother had had a heated quarrel on the phone, "I will tell my father about this." He did something wrong enough to "go to prison", but An Yuqiu knew all the inside story and planned to tell his father to discuss a solution.
An Luo had guessed before that his kidnapping might have something to do with his mother's car accident back then. Now he can even be sure that the car accident was definitely not an accident. The second uncle's car was obviously manipulated and the tires The explosion, the fuel tank leaking, the car flipping down the hillside and exploding, all of this can never be a coincidence.
Perhaps An Yudong's phone call was not a discussion, but a final warning!
It is a pity that seven-year-old An Luo, who learned of these doubts, suffered a head injury in the car accident and lost his memory, thus allowing the murderer to go unpunished for so many years. Perhaps the memory that An Luo had lost some time ago suddenly recovered. He began to doubt the truth of the car accident that year, and he started to investigate and obtained some evidence. The murderer behind the scenes would have exposed the truth, so he simply killed An Luo without stopping. .
This can also explain the reason why An Luo did not answer his father's call on the day of the crime and was anxious to talk to his grandfather.
Because that person is most likely An Yudong, An Luo's biological father!
Thinking of this, An Luo suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
After he was reborn into this time and space, besides the doctor, the first person he saw was An Yudong. He still clearly remembered the scene at that time. Beside the bed in the hospital's intensive care unit, his father in isolation gown smiled and said gently: "Xiao Luo, regarding the memory loss, you should not have too much psychological burden... "
At that time, I felt that this father was kind and loving, and even a kind of long-lost warmth that was cared for by my father rose in my heart, but in retrospect it was horrifying. An Luo lost his memory again. The happiest person was probably An Yudong. Of course it didn't matter if he couldn't remember it, it was the best to never remember it.
