Chapter 623 - Hypnosis (One) (1/2)

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

There was a place in everyone’s heart that one would not open up to anyone else.

It was a place that even their dearest loved one would not know. Nonetheless, a hypnotist could see one’s darkest secrets as quickly as unlocking a room.

For that alone, the mention of hypnosis was enough to frighten An Ying or just anyone,

Although most people only heard of it but had never experienced how real hypnosis was like…

An Ying’s expression was tense and frightened. His gaze was full of resistance.

“What you’re doing is against the law!”

Another second later, he shouted again.

“You’re violating the law knowingly!”

He started to shout at the top of his lungs.

“All of you are violating the law knowingly. I want to complain! I want to sue all of you!”

To cover up his feelings of uneasiness, he bawled loudly and was so nervous that the bluish-colored tendons on his forehead could be seen. Like a man whose feet were on the edge of an abyss, looking at a pair of hands behind him in horror since he feared that he would be pushed into a black hole…

He didn’t want to fall into the black hole. He tried his best to avoid such a situation so much that he seemed abnormal for having such an outburst of emotion…

Xiang Wan and Bai Muchuan exchanged glances, and they understood what each other were thinking.

They ignored An Ying’s shouts and protests like he was transparent.

“Ya~” Xiang Wan shrugged her shoulders casually. “He said he wanted to file a complaint against you.”

“If he wants to, just let him be!” Bai Muchuan did not even look at An Ying. They made it seem like the man who was sitting on that metal chair with handcuffs and legcuffs were non-existent. Bai Muchuan only focused on talking to Xiang Wan. “He made a complaint against me the last time. Did you see any difference?”

“Mm.” Xiang Wan agreed. “He’s the one who changed and is not as arrogant as before.”

“Cough, cough… Cough…” Bai Muchuan couldn’t stand the itchiness of his throat and took a piece of paper napkin to wipe his mouth. “It is a crime to be polite to a criminal who could pose a huge threat to society.”

“In that case,” Xiang Wan smiled. “I need not feel guilty at all.”

Bai Muchuan rolled his wrist to look at his wristwatch. “Ask her to see when she’ll arrive.”

Xiang Wan replied, “Okay, I’ll contact her again.”

She took her mobile phone and walked out of the interrogation room.

An Ying could hear some faint noises of people talking coming from outside.

Through a slightly open door, An Ying could not make out clearly what they were saying. Occasionally, he could hear a few words or two distinctively…

“Alright, we’ll await your arrival in an hour.”

“Sure! No problem, there’s no hurry! It’s raining. Please be careful while you’re on the road…”

Xiang Wan’s tone was that of a friendly and joyful one. The world outside the door and the world within the room felt like two different worlds.

Screech! The door opened.

She came in and sat back down.

“We need to wait for an hour.”

“Mm.” Bai Muchuan’s gaze indicated that he was not really pleased to hear that.

“So what should we do during this hour? Interrogate him?”

“There’s no need to interrogate him! We’ve already given him enough chances. We can save a lot of effort once the hypnotist arrives; everything will come to light by that time.”

“… I’m looking forward to it already.”

An Ying could hear all of their conversations.

Both of them had referred to An Ying as ‘him’ in their conversation.

They didn’t look at him. They ignored him, thoroughly treating him like air while they talked amongst themselves.

An Ying’s facial expression was getting gloomier and gloomier…

This was a perilous psychological trap. In the same enclosed space, if other people were chatting happily amongst themselves and deliberately alienate the third person, it was a torture to the third person. An Ying found it extremely difficult to pass the time. Subconsciously, he also wanted to mix a few parts of the conversation by hearing what they were talking about.

It was no exception, although they were the police and he was a criminal.

“The rain’s getting heavier!”

“Yeah.”

“How much longer…”

Xiang Wan looked at the time. “Twenty minutes to go.”

“Then we’ll wait for a while longer.”

“…”

Waiting…

They continued to chitchat.

An Ying sat by himself alone.

“How much more time to go?”

“Fifteen minutes…”

“Alright…”
