Chapter 77 Investigating to the End
At this moment, the most anxious person was Dr. Liao, but the biggest taboo in hypnosis is to forcibly end it, especially in the case of deep hypnosis like Huo Tingzhou's.
He could only awaken his consciousness step by step according to the established procedures.
More than twenty minutes later, Huo Tingzhou finally regained consciousness.
Dr. Liao didn't dare to speak and sat silently to the side.
Dr. Liao finally breathed a sigh of relief when Huo Tingzhou's eyes gradually regained focus.
That was close!
That really scared him to death.
This is a top-notch pilot in the military. If something happens to him, how will he explain it to his superiors?
"Don't think about anything right now, just lie down and rest for a bit."
"If you have time tomorrow morning, remember to come over. I'd like to give you some psychological counseling."
After saying that, Dr. Liao patted Huo Tingzhou on the shoulder and handed him the recorded information.
"These are all the details of the entire hypnosis process; I hope they can help you."
"Thank you, Dr. Liao."
Huo Tingzhou glanced at it and returned the notebook.
Dr. Liao was taken aback for a moment, then realized what she meant, "Have you remembered everything that happened before?"
Huo Tingzhou remained silent for a while, his eyes unfathomable, before finally nodding.
"Yes."
He remembered everything that happened before he was six and a half years old.
Not only did he recall them, but also the details that had gone unnoticed during the entire hypnosis process came to mind.
The person who abducted him was about 170cm tall.
Tangshi accent.
Before he was abducted, the last place he was seen was Zhengyangmen East Railway Station.
The abduction likely occurred around 3 PM.
Thanks to accompanying his wife to learn painting since he was a child, Huo Tingzhou gradually developed a habit as well.
That is to look at a person's facial features before looking at them, and subconsciously try to remember them.
Therefore, he memorized the man's facial features.
In addition, the other person had many bluish-purple, snake-like things on their legs, which indicated that they were suffering from severe varicose veins.
Most importantly, he only has three fingers on his right hand.
Everyone calls him—Third Master Yan.
After mentally reviewing all the details several times to make sure nothing was overlooked, I realized that I hadn't missed anything.
The next morning, Huo Tingzhou dialed the phone number of Xishan Compound.
Jiang Si then realized that Huo Tingzhou had secretly gone to a psychologist to hypnotize him.
They say you shouldn't feel sorry for men, because it will bring you bad luck.
Upon learning the truth, Jiang Si's heart still ached uncontrollably.
He was only six years old then. What does a six-year-old know?
These people are absolutely insane.
"Huo Tingzhou".
"I am here!"
After a long pause, Jiang Si said, "Life can be bitter at first and then sweet, or sweet at first and then bitter. You have already endured all the bitterness in this life, so your future days will surely be smooth and peaceful until old age."
As for those who harmed him, karma will prevail.
What goes around comes around.
One day, they will be punished for all of this.
Even though he knew she couldn't see him, Huo Tingzhou still nodded heavily.
But his testimony alone wasn't enough. "Wife, I also need you to draw a portrait of that person for me."
This man has taken too many lives; there are dozens of children and women who were trafficked in the same batch as him.
Huo Tingzhou would feel uneasy if he couldn't bring him to justice.
"What's the trouble?"
Jiang Si knew the seriousness of the matter and agreed without hesitation.
However, the two are now thousands of miles apart, and Huo Tingzhou cannot give her a definite answer in person as to whether the painting looks like her.
Furthermore, she was also worried that Huo Tingzhou's description was not accurate enough.
So Jiang Si changed her approach, "When you describe it, try to be as detailed as possible. If you don't know how to express it, just tell me directly who his eyes look like, and whether they are bigger or smaller than that person's."
“The other facial features are also treated in the same way.”
With this reference point, Jiang Si could have a better idea of what to draw.
However, she underestimated Huo Tingzhou's ability to express himself.
He seems to understand me very well, and can always provide the details I want in the first instance.
It took about forty minutes to complete Jiang Si's portrait.
After the two checked the details again, Jiang Si handed the portrait to Huo's father.
Mr. Huo acted swiftly; within a morning, all the police stations and public security bureaus in Beijing had received the message.
Mr. Huo thought that this man had been committing crimes for so many years, and might already be in jail.
So the first step is to confirm whether this person has gone inside.
However, in that era, all criminal files were handwritten, and it was indeed quite difficult to find someone based solely on their physical appearance without knowing their name.
After waiting for two days without any useful news, Jiang Si decided to use her third uncle's connections.
She remembered that her third great-uncle had once said that there was a branch hall master who was from the capital.
Sure enough, when I asked my third uncle, it was true.
"You mean, it was this bastard called Master Yan who messed with that kid Huo?"
"Third Uncle, well, his name is Huo Tingzhou."
Upon hearing this, Third Uncle immediately exclaimed "Oh dear!" and then clicked his tongue for a long time.
"Is this protection?"
Jiang Si did not deny that he had protected her for so many years.
It's only right that she protects him once.
Seeing her third uncle teasing her, Jiang Si immediately threw out her trump card.
“My mother-in-law said that she wants me to go back to Shanghai with her to spend the Chinese New Year with you this year.”
"Huh? You...you're coming back for the New Year?"
"yes."
Besides celebrating the Lunar New Year, Jiang Si also plans to take this opportunity to bring her third uncle and Uncle Zhong back to Qiongzhou Island.
Upon hearing this, the Third Uncle's voice trembled with excitement, but he quickly waved his hand.
"No need, no need, I have Ah Zhong with me, and there are many disciples and grand-disciples below me."
"You can stay in Beijing without worry. You don't need to come back to celebrate the New Year with us. It's too much trouble to travel back and forth."
Uncle Zhong glanced at his third uncle and thought to himself, "The only thing you're really good at is your mouth."
I miss Miss Si Si so much that I've cried several times.
But he couldn't say those words.
This year is Miss Si Si's first year of marriage. If she goes back to Shanghai for the Spring Festival, people will inevitably gossip behind her back.
Grandma Huo, who had been sitting nearby, listened to the conversation between the grandmother and grandson before taking the receiver.
"Hello, Uncle-in-law, I am Xiaozhou's grandmother."
Upon hearing that she was his in-laws' grandmother, the third uncle showed her the utmost respect.
"Hello, hello, my dear in-laws."
After exchanging greetings, Grandma Huo smiled and said, "Uncle, we actually think the same way. As long as the young couple is doing well, we really don't care about these things."
Grandma Huo knew that there was a custom of ancestor worship on the morning of Lunar New Year's Eve in the South.
Even now, this custom is still "if the people don't report it, the officials won't investigate!"
She said, "This year is the first year of their marriage, and Xiaozhou should go back to Shanghai to personally tell Grandpa Jiang and his mother-in-law the good news."
"It just means that my third uncle will have to take care of them for a few days."
"Not at all, not at all, it's not hard work at all." Uncle San was overjoyed.
"So, is this matter settled?"
Since his in-laws had said so, what could Uncle San say but nod in agreement?
Seeing that the matter was settled, Grandma Huo returned the receiver to Jiang Si.
Jiang Si immediately gave a thumbs up, "Grandma, you're amazing."
Grandma Huo raised her lips, her expression one of utter pride.
Just then, I heard my third uncle say on the other end of the phone, "Si girl, tell me about that bastard. I'll give you news by the morning of the day after tomorrow at the latest."
"If he dares to touch your man, he's doomed."
"Don't worry, I'll see him alive or dead. Even if that bastard is reduced to ashes, I'll still dig his ashes out of the coffin."
Jiang Si: "..."
That's really unnecessary!
However, with her third uncle's words, she was indeed much more at ease.
The day after tomorrow happens to be Sunday, which is the day the family will separate.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and early that morning Jiang Si received a call from her third uncle.
After learning where the other party was staying, she didn't delay and immediately informed Huo's father.
Mr. and Mrs. Huo haven't returned these past few days; they've been busy investigating the Yang family's connection.
Mr. Huo said, "Okay, I understand. I'll inform them to take action right away. See you at the old house later."
"good."
As soon as Jiang Si hung up the phone, the old man looked over immediately.
"How's it going? Any news?"
"Um."
Jiang Si nodded heavily.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
After breakfast, Guard Chen drove the group to the Huo family's old residence in Xicheng District.
It's hard to believe it was just bad luck, but as soon as Jiang Si helped Grandma Huo out of the car, she saw several unpleasant faces—
The author said: I took a look. Yesterday I said that I would write until a certain point, or I would gain 30 pounds. I guess I have written until that point?
I really didn't intentionally create writer's block and keep you all waiting. You can see that the two chapters I updated today have a combined word count of over 5200.
Finally, I wish all the lovely readers who have read this far a prosperous and happy 2025.
Happy 520!
