There was a slight bang, and at the same time someone shouted loudly: "Captain Xu."

Xu Yao suddenly woke up, and the kite in his hand flew away rapidly.

After waking up, Xu Yao immediately shuddered, and his vision slowly jumped out of the constraints. He suddenly woke up, as if someone had suddenly poured a basin of cold water on his head.

The sunglasses on Xu Yao's eyes were taken off, and he tried hard to open his eyes, and saw Mo Xiaoqing and Liu Xiaobo standing in front of him. He was holding the handle of the kite in his hand, but the nylon line had been cut, and the kite had disappeared.

Xu Yao suddenly recalled the scene just now, and a cold sweat broke out instantly.

"What happened to me just now? In such a short time, I felt like I was in a dream."

"Captain Xu, you might have been hypnotized. Liu Xiaobo also said that we arrived in time to help you get rid of the hypnosis."

Xu Yao immediately turned his head to look at the lawn, but the group of guys had disappeared. Where are your group of guys?

I clearly remember a group of men and women sitting not far from the lawn. They set up a tent with a plastic sheet and played music CDs for a small concert. But now, in the blink of an eye, all the people and everything disappeared, and the grass was clean without any trace.

Xu Yao looked up at the square again, and what surprised him even more was that not only the group of men and women, but also the groceries vendor from whom he had just bought sunglasses, and the little boy flying a kite were all gone.

If he hadn't still been holding the sunglasses and the kite's string handle in his hands, Xu Yao would have really suspected that he was still dreaming.

He pinched his thigh hard and felt the pain. He asked his companions in confusion,

"It's strange, too strange, have you seen those people? There were just a few people chatting on the lawn, a vendor pushing a cart, and a boy of eight or nine years old. They were clearly here just now."

Mo Xiaoqing looked around in confusion and replied, "I didn't see them. When we came, we saw you standing there alone flying a kite. When we walked in front of you, you didn't react at all. You stood there stupidly, your whole body stiff." Finally

, Liu Xiaobo pointed out, "Captain Xu, you may have been hypnotized, so I quickly cut the kite line."

Xu Yao thought, could it be that the group of people just now were all in the same group, and they all withdrew immediately when they saw his companions coming.

Xu Yao looked around in disbelief, but he couldn't see even the shadow of those people as far as his sight could see.

After a long time, Xu Yao collected his thoughts and turned to Mo Xiaoqing and Liu Xiaobo and asked,

"Why are you here?"

Liu Xiaobo said, "Captain Xu, we saw that you haven't sent any news for a long time, so we took the initiative to call you, but your phone was connected but no one answered, which made us a little worried.

Fortunately, we remembered the number of the taxi you took at that time, so we contacted the driver who picked you up through the taxi driver company. He told me that you got off the car here, so we drove over quickly."

Xu Yao was even more confused. "No, if you drive here from the criminal police team, it will take at least 20 minutes. But I just muted my phone and it's only been five minutes. How come no one answered my call before?"

Mo Xiaoqing interrupted, "No one answered. Captain Xu, if you don't believe me, check the call log."

Xu Yao took out his phone and started to check it. He was even more surprised. When he muted it, he paid special attention to the fact that it should be 4:20 in the afternoon.

The time when he asked them about the call was 4:28, and the phone was indeed muted at that time. No wonder he couldn't answer it. But the strange thing is that it is already 4:50, which means that 22 minutes have passed since the mute time, but why is his subjective feeling so short.

Liu Xiaobo suddenly realized and shouted, "Captain Xu, you should have been in a hypnotic state during that period of time. Do you remember what you experienced during that period of time?"

Xu Yao was shocked and said in astonishment, "Oh my God, it means that I was hypnotized for a full 20 minutes."

Xu Yao began to recall what happened just now. In his mind, another masked man flashed, and the picture of origami airplanes thrown into the air turned into a phoenix.

After this time, he was more certain that someone was coming for him.

The story of revenge implied by the bamboo shoot hidden in the painting left when the restaurant caught fire was not against Li Zhiguo, but someone was targeting him.

Xu Yao began to connect many suspicious points in the recent murders, such as the paper airplane in the trunk of the car when the twin murderer was hit by a car. After Liu Lidan was killed by his brother Liu Lixuan, Liu Lixuan committed suicide out of guilt, leaving paper airplanes all over the bedroom floor and blood stains on the wall. The

strange murals left on the wall by this arson case, all of these can be connected together.

Xu Yao has already clearly felt that someone has been setting a trap step by step from a long time ago to lure him into the game.

It was like a game of cat and mouse, and now Xu Yao had become the mouse.

Xu Yao stared at Mo Xiaoqing for a long time, his eyebrows knitted together unconsciously, but he couldn't help but talk about his worries.

Mo Xiaoqing was the person he cared about the most now, and he was afraid that the previous curse would be restarted, and Mo Xiaoqing's situation would become extremely dangerous.

Xu Yao's face became more and more gloomy.

Liu Xiaobo quickly comforted him, "Captain Xu, you don't have to worry too much. Didn't Professor Li once say that you are a person with a very strong desire for self-control and it is difficult to hypnotize you.

So in the past 20 minutes, that guy should have just entered your spiritual world. He might see some secrets in your heart, but it is unlikely that he will leave any trace of him in your heart."

Xu Yao recalled that Li Tianfeng had talked to him about a psychological phenomenon called the heart hole, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "That is to say, he may have found my heart hole, but he didn't have time to build a heart bridge, right?"

Liu Xiaobo spread his hands when using this psychological terminology. He was still confused and ignorant.

Xu Yao couldn't help but feel a little guilty. He sighed deeply and said, "It seems that Li Tianfeng is also wrong sometimes. He even said that I am difficult to hypnotize. But I lost miserably in the head-on confrontation just now."

Mo Xiaoqing interrupted anxiously,

"Captain Asahi, I can't blame you. That guy had set up a carefully planned trap just for you. I think he had deliberately let us know he was following us from the beginning.

As police officers, we would have come up with a countermeasure to stop him. It just so happened that Captain Asahi fell into the trap and followed him in a taxi."
