The strongest dream therapist

Chapter 46 Suspicion

The pig-headed man turned around, his eyes filled with bloodshot.

He looked crazy and laughed, "Want to know? Go in and take a look yourself—"

As he spoke, Niu Tou stepped forward, pressed Fu Yuan's shoulders, and captured her with his backhand.

Fu Yuan didn't move, wanting to see what they were going to do.

The sky was dark, and thick, inky clouds hung heavily over the mountain village. Firewood was still burning in the yard, and the crackling sound heard before came from here.

The fox girl twisted her waist, turned around slowly, and with a "creak", the door closed.

She gave a wink, and the dog head went into the thatched hut. After a while, it dragged out a young girl of about the age of a pigeon, like dragging a dead dog, and threw her casually next to the firewood pile.

The girl was tied up all over and was struggling on the ground like a caterpillar, crying "Wuwuah——" but she seemed to be mute. She could only cry and howl without saying a word.

The pig-headed man strode forward and hugged the fox girl. The fox girl snuggled into his arms. The two of them were as affectionate and intimate as a newlywed couple.

The dog-headed woman threw firewood into the pile, and it burned more vigorously. The flames reflected in the girl's pupils. She couldn't help but close her eyes and shed a line of blood and tears.

Fu Yuan tilted his head and looked into the room through the half-open door. He saw that there was more than one girl inside. They were of different ages. The oldest was about fifteen or sixteen years old, and the youngest looked like she had just been born.

They were all tied up, their faces gaunt and their eyes lifeless. A little further away, one could vaguely see black eyes, nestled in the corners of the walls, flickering faintly in the dim thatched house.

Doghead set up a grill and tied the girl to a thick wooden branch.

He licked the corner of his mouth, his eyes full of greed and desire, and his voice filled with uncontrollable excitement as he asked the pig-headed man, "Since we've got a new human sacrifice, can we roast this and eat it?"

Fu Yuan smelled the strong excitement from the dog head. This man was mentally ill - he really wanted to eat people.

Looking at the girl again, she was already numb, lying quietly on the ground with empty eyes, as if she had completely given up hope of being rescued.

Who is the dreamer?
Fu Yuan didn't know.

If intense fear could pull her into a dream, why couldn't this perverted obsession?
Seeing that the girl was about to be put on the grill, Fu Yuan couldn't help but explode. A lightsaber fell from the sky and directly killed the four evil people.

……

Fu Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, his heart still beating violently in his chest. He subconsciously turned over and faced Wang Fugui.

It happened that Wang Fugui had just opened his eyes drowsily, with a hint of confusion and bewilderment in his eyes.

He just woke up too!

Fu Yuan's heart was shocked, and the scene in his dream quickly came to his mind: it was a remote mountain village.

Wang Fugui had previously told her that he came from a mountain village.

Wang Fugui also mentioned that he has a brother and a sister, and the people who appeared in his dream happened to be a couple, two men and a girl, and the number and gender of the people corresponded one to one.

Fu Yuan realized the connection almost instantly, and his heart began to beat uncontrollably, as if it was about to jump out of his throat.
Why was Wang Fugui able to realize so quickly that it was possession and not hypnosis?
Why did someone come to the hotel right after Guo Yu left? And he was so sure it was just a threat and he wouldn't actually kill anyone.

Why does he care so much about whether he will continue to investigate?
...He is so young.

The traitor...is he really the portrait artist?

She was shocked by her own thoughts, lowered her eyes, and said in a dry voice: "Wang Fugui, were you dreaming just now?"

Wang Fugui hummed in a daze.

Fu Yuan's heart sank, and he asked softly, "Is it a good dream or a nightmare?"

Wang Fugui turned over, still drowsy. "Hmm...it was a good dream at first, but it turned out to be a nightmare later."

Fu Yuan continued to ask: "What did you dream about? Was it in a remote mountain village?"

Wang Fugui's voice was almost inaudible: "Well... go to sleep quickly, I'm so sleepy, I'll still have to do it tomorrow..." As he spoke, he fell silent, and then there was a burst of even breathing sounds, and he had fallen asleep.

When Fu Yuan heard his words, his heart felt like it had fallen into an ice cellar, and a chill ran through his body.

She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep until dawn.

……

She was woken up by Guo Yu's phone call. When she woke up, Wang Fugui was eating dumplings beside her. There were also 6 meat buns, two cups of soy milk and a fried dough stick on the table.

Fu Yuan took his cell phone and walked to the corridor to answer it.

After washing up, she sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the group chat messages in her hand, her thoughts flying further and further away.

"I think you seem to be a little attached to your bed. You didn't sleep well last night, so I didn't wake you up this morning."

Wang Fugui stuffed another steamed dumpling into his mouth and mumbled, "I've already bought breakfast. You seemed to have a better appetite, so I bought a little more."

Fu Yuan looked at him, then looked at the breakfast on the table.

Ever since she started to suspect Wang Fugui last night, she found everything suspicious and she didn't dare to eat the breakfast on the table.

"...I haven't had much of an appetite lately. I ate too much last night and I'm not hungry now."

As she said this, her stomach growled in protest.

I used my abilities in my dream last night and used up all the energy in my body.

But it was too late, and Fu Yuan was completely immersed in his own speculations, so he didn't order takeout for a while.

Wang Fugui listened to her and thought she was just worried about the breakfast cost, so he said to her: "I'll treat you to breakfast. Besides topping up my game, I don't need money for anything else."

When he said that, Fu Yuan felt even more resistant.

Could there really be something in breakfast?
"What did Captain Guo say to you on the phone just now?" Wang Fugui suddenly remembered this and asked.

In fact, Guo Yu didn't say much. He probably just encouraged her, saying that the clues she provided were very useful and that there was progress in the case. He also asked her to come over for lunch and introduced her to two other trustworthy colleagues.

Why was Wang Fugui asking about this? Was he trying to find out about the progress of the case?
Fu Yuan frowned and said calmly, "Nothing, just saying we'd have lunch together and introduce our colleagues."

As for the case, she didn't say a word.

Wang Fugui said "Oh" and started looking at his phone again.

Fu Yuan was ravenous, and since Guo Yu had already called and said he'd be over at noon, if she, who was with Wang Fugui, died of poisoning after eating breakfast, he would surely notice something was wrong...

She picked up the meat bun on the table and took a bite. The bun was still warm, and juice came out with one bite.

Wang Fugui, who was standing by, took the time to hand her a piece of paper and said with a smile, "It is said that the meat buns here are the best. What do you think they taste like?"

Fu Yuan took a sip of the soup and said something he couldn't say against his will: "It's delicious."

Wang Fugui smiled at her, revealing two small dimples, "Then I'll go out and continue buying from them tomorrow."

　La la la la ~ the reversal is coming.

Happy New Year everyone!
