The strongest dream therapist

Chapter 74: Dispute at the Bow
The sea breeze, carrying a salty and humid smell, blew freely across the deck of the fishing boat.

Yang Xi stood aside, watching intently as the father and son on the boat skillfully operated the driving equipment of the fishing boat, his eyes full of novelty, "I didn't expect that the two of you could complete the driving of a fishing boat..."

A gray-haired old man was squatting not far away. He was holding a yellowed piece of white paper in his rough hands and skillfully rolling tobacco for himself.

After rolling the cigarette, he put it in his mouth, half-closed his eyes, and looked at the boundless sea. "A small boat has its advantages. Times are progressing."

"Are you all policemen?" He was still looking at the sea, his tone as calm as the calm sea in front of him.

Yang Xi nodded: "Yes."

The old man slowly unfolded the white paper, twisted some more tobacco, and carefully rolled it up again. Then he took out a match and lit it. The orange-red flame flickered and danced in the azure ocean, flickering.

He said with some nostalgia: "I once had a son, and he was also a glorious policeman."

Yang Xi noticed that he used the word "once", and guessed that his son might have been murdered, so he remained silent.

The old man seemed to sense the oppressive atmosphere. He turned around and gave them a simple smile. "My fishing boat is simple, but it has sufficient performance and can even navigate automatically. You don't have to be so humble."

Guo Yu and his companions were already feeling heavy-hearted due to the pressure of the mission, and when they heard the old man's words, they could only force out a smile.

The information the operator brought was like a heavy stone weighing on their hearts - the cruise ship was missing.

Now we can only determine an approximate range of the disappearance, but cannot locate the specific location.

The other party was suspected of using a jammer. From the satellite, the sea area was white and nothing could be distinguished.

Now, they can only rely on data analysis and Wang Fugui's perception to determine the location of the cruise ship.

Yes, Wang Fugui had already set his sights on Chi Zhanpeng's glasses - clothes might be replaced with new ones, but glasses could not be replaced in a hurry.

Anyone who has worn glasses knows that even if the degree is the same, different lenses and frames will give a different overall feeling, and people often need some time to adapt.

As for why Wang Fugui did not bring anyone with him and directly traveled through space to the vicinity of Chi Zhanpeng, one reason was that after the travel, it was as if the person appeared out of thin air in an unfamiliar environment, which might cause panic.

Secondly, Wang Fugui could only carry one person through the journey, and the two of them were not in good condition after traveling through time. Not everyone was like Fu Yuan, who just felt carsick. Even if they brought a gun, they might not still be able to fight.

Thirdly, there were two mediums on the other side, one of whom could possess bodies, and Chi Zhanpeng... I didn't know what abilities they had, but I assumed they were related to strength. So I couldn't just go over there.

"Damn it, it's so tricky, I don't believe I can hide forever."

Guo Yu cursed under his breath and asked, "Can we still contact Chi Zhanpeng?"

Zhang Chunzhi shook his head, his expression solemn. "I still can't contact him. He's out of the service area. There's no sign of him on any of the street surveillance cameras."

Guo Yu sneered, a cold glint in his eyes. "A modern man who has been missing for so long and can't be contacted can be confirmed to have fled for fear of punishment."

As he spoke, he began to contact his superiors.

Guo Yu glanced at the note, his face instantly turned gloomy, and he hung up without hesitation.

But the other party refused to give in and hit again.

Guo Yu frowned even deeper and hung up again.

It wasn't until the third call that Guo Yu answered the call impatiently, his tone tinged with annoyance: "What's up? Sister."

The person on the other side seemed a little angry and asked, "Is it necessary to be so extreme? He is your brother-in-law!"

Guo Yu felt annoyed and didn't want to say anything more, so he hung up the phone and blocked her.

Suddenly, the world seemed to grow quieter. Guo Yu felt a wave of nausea at the thought that Chi Zhanpeng might know Zhang Mi, a man-eating demon. He also knew Liao Xuan, a thrill-seeker who took on murders on commission... and even had repeatedly cleaned up after them.

After a while, the phone started vibrating again.

Guo Yu was about to hang up again when he saw the note was "Dad".

After hesitating for a moment, he finally answered the call, but his tone was still aggressive: "Why? Are you here to persuade me too?"

The other party was silent for a moment. "Are you really going to do this? I know him. He actually only got in to study the abilities of a medium. The higher-ups are all aware of this."

Guo Yu clenched his hand holding the phone suddenly, and his knuckles turned white from the force.

After a long moment, he slowly let go, his voice filled with disbelief, "So, you all know?"

There was silence again from the other side, and no response was given.

If there is no rebuttal, it is acquiescence.

For a moment, Guo Yu seemed to feel an emotion called "anger" erupting within him, and his voice unconsciously rose:

"So, in order to study the medium's abilities, you let him infiltrate the inner circle and allowed those people to use their abilities to kill and even eat people!?"

The other party seemed to know they were in the wrong and explained, "You know, it's not just us. Some countries even lock up mediums and extract their blood and bone marrow. Some even cut them up repeatedly to test their regenerative abilities. In their countries, mediums aren't even human..."

Because of the mysterious powers of mediums, many people flock to them. We don't talk about it openly, but there are people in higher-ups who want to control this power... I've heard that some mediums have extremely long lifespans, some as long as a thousand years. If we could discover the reason, even if we couldn't live to 1000, then even 200 would be great."

As soon as these words came out, Guo Yu lost all his strength. His eyes lost focus, and a hint of sarcasm came out of his mouth:
"Life span is predetermined by fate. You are not even 60 yet, and you think it would be great if you could live to 200. But how can you know if you live to 200, and then you think, 'How great would it be if I could live to 1000?'"
Everything you said was just an attempt to cover up your sins. You are a sinner."

The other person sighed, "I knew you were always so straightforward. I shouldn't have told you so much... You're not a medium, so you don't understand the benefits of mediums. You know, they're far superior to ordinary people in both physical and intellectual abilities."

Once the secret is discovered, humanity as a whole will achieve a qualitative leap, and we will be the pioneers of mankind, not the sinners you claim."

Guo Yu recalled the legend of Cheng Huang that he had told Fu Yuan before. The people in the story were studying how to transfer the ability of Cheng Huang to humans, and it ended with a woman giving birth to a pair of twins who were intelligent but weak.

This kind of thing has been done before, and left a bloody lesson.

Sure enough, the lesson people have learned from history is that people can never learn lessons from history.

He no longer wanted to argue. "Yes, I'm not a medium, but I never envy them. Everyone has their own mission, just like mine right now, which is to do what I believe is right."

Just when he was filled with disappointment, the other party suddenly said in a serious tone: "Comrade Guo Yu!"

"I'm giving you a mission now. Make every effort to arrest the criminals Chi Zhanpeng and Liao Xuan. I'll send someone to connect you with Kanzaki Hitomi."

Hitomi Kanzaki, another prestigious medium in Bureau 224.

Unlike Wang Fugui, she is more mysterious. She mostly meets people in dreams and wears a fox mask.

Her real name is unknown. We only know that she is a graduate student at Z University. When asked to do a task, she always says that she is busy with her thesis.

The ability is divination.

"Yes! I guarantee to complete the mission!" Although Guo Yu didn't know why he was suddenly asked to arrest Chi Zhanpeng and Liao Xuan and send reinforcements, all this was to fulfill the justice in his heart.

Or rather, he didn't want to think about why.

With the addition of Kanzaki Hitomi, several people drove the boat and quickly headed in one direction. At the same time, another group of military quietly came out and blocked all possible escape routes.

Human nature cannot withstand speculation, and what happened today made me feel even more so.
