The chief player of the film and television world

Chapter 545 Disharmonious World
Standing by the window and looking at the street below, Zhang Jin felt an innumerable sense of familiarity, as if he had returned to the scene at the beginning of the Xihong City dungeon.

Doctor Xu's voice suddenly came from behind.

"What are you looking at? We don't have much time!"

Zhang Jin turned his head to look at the other party, and asked, "What's the situation now? Am I in Xiaoxu's nightmare?"

"Of course, otherwise, where do you think you are? This is [-]. Have you forgotten what year you came from?" Dr. Xu said.

"But your room hasn't changed at all?"

"Because this is the safe point where dreams connect to reality, and this is the only place where you will not be disturbed by nightmares. When you solve the root cause of Xiaoxu's nightmares, you must return here to leave the dream."

"Then when did I enter the dream?" Zhang Jin asked.

Dr. Xu replied: "Why did you ask such a strange question again? Of course it was after you put on the blindfold and lay down on the push bed."

"What about my companion? Why didn't I see her?" Zhang Jin was a little worried.

"You mean Xiaoxu's sister. I haven't seen her yet, and it may take a while before I can enter the dream state. After all, the quality of sleep and the frequency of dreams are different for everyone."

"Then I'd better wait for her to come in before acting together." Zhang Jin thought for a while and said.

Dr. Xu shook his head and said, "I think it's better for you to act first, because I don't only know when Miss Shen will enter the dream. The time of the dream changes according to the subconscious changes of the dreamer's brain. Maybe it's just a few minutes in reality. Seconds, but it may be several days in the dream, or even half a month or a month, do you want to wait here to waste time?"

"It's not impossible." Zhang Jin said indifferently.

Since the real time will not be wasted, it doesn't matter if he waits here for a month. What he lacks most is patience.

Otherwise, when recording the game clearance video before, countless times of "dangerous" made him give up.

Dr. Xu was a little speechless, and patiently explained: "The subconscious mind of the human brain has a self-defense mechanism. Now that you have entered Xiaoxu's dream, it will change her subconscious mind. This change may be good or bad. But she Now it’s a nightmare, and it’s largely changed for the worse. This change will make it more difficult for us to unravel Xiaoxu’s nightmare, and it may even cause subconscious harm to you in serious cases. bothered."

Zhang Jin smiled lightly: "I won't be troubled by nightmares. Monsters and ghosts can't scare me at all. Besides, I like watching horror movies the most. Sometimes I really want to experience it myself."

"Nightmares are not just about ghosts and scary things. Nightmares are the result of the infinite amplification of the most fearful things in the human subconscious. For example, you may not be afraid of ghosts and ghosts, but you are afraid of being bored, then your nightmare is likely to be that you are alone. Walking on a never-ending road, all around is wilderness or nothingness.”

Doctor Xu looked at him very seriously.

"You will keep walking and walking, never stop, and always see the same scene, until you wake up from a dream or have a mental breakdown, but no one can guarantee whether you will wake up from a dream or have a mental breakdown first."

Zhang Jin looked at Dr. Xu indifferently. Perhaps what the other party said was right, but it was useless to him.Because none of this is real to him.

He doesn't care whether Xiaoxu's nightmare can be solved, he only cares about whether he can return to reality.

To be honest, he is actually a little angry now!
If it wasn't for his rationality to suppress his impulse, he would have thought that the fruit knife in his hand would go up to Dr. Xu and ask him where this place is, why he let himself go through such a thing, and what is the other's purpose?
Dr. Xu saw that he was still indifferent, so he could only say helplessly: "Well, since you want to wait, it doesn't matter, anyway, it only takes a few seconds to a minute in reality. I will leave the table for you. Come on, you can watch it if you are bored in your room. That’s all for now, I wish you good luck, I hope you can successfully solve Xiaoxu’s nightmare.”

"Hearing what you said, are you planning to leave the dreamland?" Zhang Jin asked.

"Of course, I'm just a guide. I have to pay attention to the physical conditions of you and Xiaoxu outside. If something goes wrong, I will forcefully wake you up immediately." Dr. Xu disappeared immediately after speaking.

Zhang Jin didn't expect Dr. Xu to disappear so quickly, and he still had a lot of questions to ask, so it seemed that he could only find the answers by himself.He kept his word, he didn't plan to leave this room before Shen Siyi appeared, anyway, he shouldn't be hungry in his dream.

Zhang Jin picked up the diagnostic report on his desk, went to the window, listened to free songs, and began to read the contents of the materials.

This diagnostic report is very long, about [-] or [-] pages long, but most of it is recording the conversation between Dr. Xu and Xiaoxu, and there are some analysis notes of Dr. Xu during the conversation.

After spending more than 30 minutes reading it carefully, Zhang Jin found a problem, that is, after analyzing the whole report, Dr. Xu was only guessing about the root of the nightmare.

Xiaoxu's identity is an orphan, who grew up in an orphanage. The so-called elder sister and elder brother are actually volunteers in the orphanage. As a reporter, he only reported news about the orphanage at first.

And the identity of that classmate is even more strange, because she grew up in the orphanage, and Xiao Xu has not yet reached the age to go to school outside, so she doesn't know any classmates at all.

Finally, Zhang Jin saw Xiaoxu's photo. The girl in the photo was about seven or eight years old. She was fair and well-behaved, with double ponytails and a slightly old-fashioned plain floral dress. She looked very cute.

After reading it once, Zhang Jin put the document back on the desktop. He had secretly recorded the contents of the investigation report just now, and he could recall any information at any time with the treasure house of memory.

After finishing this, he leaned against the window and listened to the songs from the video store outside, popular songs in the 90s, Black Panther, Beyond, Jacky Cheung, Na Ying, Liu Huan, Zhou Huajian, etc., as if it was a nostalgic playlist of golden songs.

Zhang Jin just listened to nostalgic golden songs every day, waiting for Shen Siyi's arrival.

Sunset and moonrise, this kind of day lasted for a month, and Zhang Jin didn't wait for Shen Siyi to appear.

He also changed from leaning against the window to sitting by the window, and then lying by the bed.I also listened to the playlist of nostalgic golden songs in the video store downstairs over and over again, and my ears were almost cocooned.

I don't know if it's because of the nightmare, the time in the dream is repeated every day, and it has been fixed on September [-]th.But the lives of people in the dream world are not the same, at least the nostalgic hits are different every day.

Occasionally, you can hear the sound of quarreling on the street downstairs, and at night, you can also hear the sound of drunks playing crazy, and even couples breaking up and arguing.

This is a seemingly alive but hopeless world.

Because you can't see the future.

Not only is this dream world unable to see the future, but if I continue to lie down like this, there will be no future.

Zhang Jin rolled over from the push bed and sat up, turned his head and glanced at the morning light that had just passed the city skyline outside the window, the orange, white and blue sky looked very refreshing.

The orange morning light gradually pushes away the night blue, giving people a sense of vitality and hope.

It seems to be a life that has experienced setbacks and is constantly getting better with my own efforts.

The night will eventually pass!
Zhang Jin got off the bed, tidied his clothes, washed up in the bathroom, opened the door, and walked out of the office for the first time.Dr. Xu said that it was the only safe point, and he didn't know what strange things would happen to him after he went out.

Outside the room is a long corridor, the two sides of the corridor are empty, and there is only this door and room behind him in the whole corridor, which looks lonely and weird.

However, Zhang Jin didn't care too much. After closing the door, he walked towards the stairs at the end of the corridor.Not long after he walked out, he suddenly looked back at the window across the corridor, and suddenly had an idea in his mind.

In Inception, if you want to wake up from a dream, there is a weightless falling method. I don’t know if it is suitable for my current situation.

Maybe it was a fan of the authorities, he stayed by the window for a month before and had no intention of jumping off the building, and now he suddenly remembered when he was about to go out and go downstairs.

After the idea of ​​trying came to his mind, Zhang Jin turned around and returned to the office without any hesitation, and jumped directly in front of the window!

The height of the three-story building is not a problem for him. Even if he doesn't need the [Tianxing Bracelet], his physical fitness alone can guarantee that he won't suffer too much damage.

Boom!A second or two later, Zhang Jin slammed down on the sidewalk below, rolled forward to lose the force, and then turned over and stood up.

"Well, it didn't work at all. It doesn't look like a dream." He muttered while patting the dust off his body.

This move of the macho man from the sky startled the passers-by around, and everyone looked at him dumbfounded.

"Young man, you are insane!" A grocery shopping lady said contemptuously with a loud voice.

As the aunt yelled loudly, everyone came back to their senses and went about their own business, only occasionally casting strange glances at him.

Although Zhang Jin was despised, he was not angry at all, because he found that no matter whether these passers-by were angry, happy, disappointed, depressed, etc., they always had an expression on their faces, as if they were wearing a mask. .

It was a very mournful smile. It looked like a smile, but there was a gloomy and musty smell everywhere, as stiff as an incorruptible ancient corpse just dug out of a tomb.

Regardless of adults and children, men and women, all of them communicate with each other with the same weird expressions on their different faces.

If you don't look at their faces, you can't even feel that something is abnormal, but once you look at their faces and listen to their conversations, you will feel a strange and terrifying feeling in your heart.

"So this is Xiaoxu's nightmare? In her dream, everyone has a 'smiling' dead face. It's really a discordant dream world."

Zhang Jin looked away from the faces of these people, even with his psychological quality, he felt uncomfortable looking at them, let alone a seven or eight-year-old girl, I'm afraid she was so frightened that she collapsed.

If you have such nightmares every night, it is indeed a kind of torture!
Although he was a little curious as to why Xiao Xu had such a nightmare, Zhang Jin still did not forget that his main purpose was to leave here, not to help solve the problem.

He is neither a saint nor a villain, just an ordinary normal person.To force him to help without his consent, and in such a weird way, no normal person would agree!
Respect is mutual, I have never heard of asking for help with threats!
If the other party asks him for help in a friendly way, it won't make him feel so uncomfortable!

Since he couldn't get out of this nightmare world on his own initiative, he could only follow the clues to try to find the root of the nightmare, and perhaps find a way to go back in the process of solving the problem.

Zhang Jin stopped a taxi on the side of the street. Taxis were still rare in small towns in the [-]s.Santana has not yet become popular, and drivers still drive Xiali.

"Master, please go to the dormitory in the old factory area of ​​Wuqing Machinery Factory."

"Wu Ji's old dormitory? Where do you go and what do you go home to see the elders? Many people have been moved out of these old factory dormitories one after another, and only some retired old workers still live there. The driver is talkative, "That area is going to be remodeled, and now it is sparsely populated. I wouldn't even dare to drive there during the day, because accidents are easy to happen."

Looking at the "smiling" face of the driver in the rearview mirror, Zhang Jin thought to himself that you are afraid of accidents at night with your appearance?Don't talk about people, ghosts are scared to death by you!
In fact, what Zhang Jin was going to was the welfare home opposite the dormitory in the old factory area of ​​Wuji Factory, because the investigation report did not mention the specific address of the welfare home, it only mentioned that it was opposite the dormitory in the old factory area.

The patient's address in the investigation report is not clearly written, which is quite outrageous.I don't know if it's the details, or some other reason.

Along the way, the driver was very talkative. Although Zhang Jin didn't talk much, he could always find various topics to talk about in different ways. In short, as long as he wasn't stopped, he seemed to be able to keep talking.

After a 10-minute drive, after traveling through most of the small town to the suburbs at the other end, the taxi finally arrived at its destination.

After Zhang Jin got out of the car, he walked towards the gate of the orphanage, and the driver's voice came from behind him.

"Oh, boy, you haven't paid yet!"

Dreaming, want me to pay! ?

Zhang Jin ignored the driver's yelling, and soon came to the entrance of the orphanage. The black iron gate was tightly closed, with a few circles of chains wrapped around it and a large iron lock hanging on it.

According to the information in the investigation report, this orphanage should still be open, why would it lock the door in broad daylight?
Moreover, there were no voices coming from the courtyard or the building, as if there was no one there.

"Hey, young man, you have to pay..." The taxi driver chased after him, but his eyes widened suddenly, and he watched in shock as the young man in front of him kicked the big iron gate of the orphanage away!

Bang!The big iron gate flew upside down and hit the concrete floor in the courtyard, making a loud noise!

"What did you just say?" Zhang Jin turned to ask the driver.

"Uh...it's nothing, young man, you're busy with your work, I'll go first." The driver turned around and walked back quickly after speaking.
