quadruple sleep

Chapter 360 Awakening Qiao Yuan
Lu Nanshen drank a lot of wine and was drunk when he returned to his room.

Although plum blossom wine is not as strong as other wines, it has a strong aftertaste. This is why plum blossom wine is the best among some fruit wines and flower wines in Meitang Village. It is fragrant and refreshing when you drink it, and it has a good aftertaste, which makes people always want to drink more. After drinking it, they will be drunk.

Lu Nanshen was not a big fan of drinking, so he was very restrained when he drank. The reason he got drunk today was because Hang Si persuaded him to drink.

Lu Nanshen was also obedient. He drank whenever Hang Si urged him to drink, without even frowning. As a result, seeing that he was in high spirits, Nian Baixiao drank quite a bit himself. Although he was not as drunk as Lu Nanshen, he was still a little tipsy.

Chen Yezhou can drink a lot. In his words, sometimes he gets annoyed by a case and drinking some wine can help relieve the pain. Sometimes he will drink some wine when he is happy after solving a case. But my alcohol tolerance is innate. If I were greedy for alcohol, I would not be able to investigate the case.

Nian Baixiao went back to the house complaining of a headache. Fang Sheng grabbed Hang Si and waited for Chen Yezhou to drag Lu Nanshen back to the house before asking her, "You got Lu Nanshen drunk on purpose. Why? You don't want to go in his place tomorrow, do you?"

Seeing Fang Sheng's anxious face, Hang Si comforted her in a low voice, "You're overthinking it. Lu Nanshen must be present at tomorrow's event."

"Then what do you want to do by doing this?" Fang Sheng was only half relieved.

Hang Si pulled Fang Sheng to the window.

Outside the window, the snow was falling even harder than before dinner. There were no street lights here, and the whole courtyard was pitch black, except for the snow on the ground, which was very bright, as if it was covered with a layer of silver.

She said, "Qiao Yuan may know the real cause of Duan Guoliang's death."

Fang Sheng was startled for a moment, then reacted and looked at her in astonishment, "So you want to lure Qiao Yuan out?"

"Yes."

"Are you crazy?" Fang Sheng was as if facing a formidable enemy. "Don't you know what kind of person Qiao Yuan is? Do you think he can cooperate with you? No, it's too dangerous for you to do this."

"Nan Shen is avoiding the truth, and I know why he is trying to avoid it." Hang Si's expression was very serious, "But this is the key to solving the problem, we can't avoid it. And,"

She paused here, her eyes hesitant.

Fang Sheng saw her hesitating to speak, and had a bad feeling in his heart, "And what?"

Hang Si turned her gaze to the window, and the silvery snow seemed to hit the depths of her pupils, and her eyes seemed to melt with a layer of coldness. After a long time, she said, "Duan Guoliang died in a kidnapping case many years ago. I wonder if his death has something to do with me?"

"Don't talk nonsense. How could it be related to you? If so, how could you not remember it?" Fang Sheng was shocked.

Hang Si shook his head, "What if I forget the most important thing?"

Fang Sheng felt a chill all over her body. When she pulled her hand, she realized that it was also cold. "No, Sisi."

When Hang Si retracted her gaze, her expression was calm. She looked at Fang Sheng and said softly, "Don't worry, I know my limits. Even if Qiao Yuan really wants to do something to me, he won't dare to do it. After all, you are by his side."

Fang Sheng was still worried.

"If anything happens, you will be able to hear me if I shout." Hang Si said.

Although Fang Sheng was quite worried, seeing how determined she was, she could only agree and asked her, "Do you have a way to call out Qiao Yuan? Lu Nanshen is already so drunk, won't his secondary personality get drunk too?"

Hang Si was also hesitant about this question, so tonight's move could only be considered a test. This was also a solution that Hang Si had thought about for a long time before coming up with. Lu Nan was very wary of his secondary personality, especially in a place like this. When he was sober, his secondary personality had no chance to come out, so he could only try it after he was drunk.

Hang Si told Fang Sheng honestly that he was not sure, "We have to verify it one by one."

Fang Sheng wanted to stay with her, but was rejected by Hang Si. If Qiao Yuan really showed up, he would have to leave no one around to hear the truth from him. Finally, Hang Si reminded Fang Sheng, "Unless it is absolutely necessary, Officer Chen must not know that Nan Shen has split personality."
-
Lu Nanshen was sent to Hang Si's room in the name of taking care of him.

Chen Yezhou went to bed early to recuperate. Fang Sheng was not able to return to her room for the time being, nor did she go to look for Nian Baixiao. She sat by the fire in the main room, keeping an eye on what was happening in Hang Si's room.

The room is warm.

The moment the door closed, in addition to the faint smell of plum wine, there was also the smell of burning firewood, warm and dry.

Lu Nanshen lay on the bed, his face slightly tilted and his eyes closed. After being drunk, he was quite quiet and honest, not showing off or talking too much, just sleeping quietly.

Without turning on the lights, the glow from the wood stove and the large expanse of silvery-white reflection outside the window were enough to clearly illuminate the scene before one’s eyes.

Hang Si sat by the bed for a long time, reached out and gently pushed Lu Nanshen twice, and called his name. He didn't react much, at most he turned over, mumbled something, and fell asleep again.

His back was wide and hidden in the darkness, and even his breathing was barely audible.

Drunk people all breathe heavily, but he didn't.

Hang Si sat there motionless, staring at his slightly ups and downs of his back, his heart began to beat restlessly. This was most likely to mean that it was only Lu Nan who was drunk, and his secondary personalities might not really be drunk, and were wantonly looking for opportunities to break out.

Fang Sheng said she was making a life-threatening attempt and her behavior was bold.

Yes, Hang Si felt that he had to venture into the tiger’s den to gain access to the tiger cub.

She slowly stretched out her hand towards Lu Nanshen's back, and her fingers could be seen trembling from across the space. The moment she put her hand on Lu Nanshen's shoulder, she felt a chill growing from the bottom of her heart. The room was obviously very hot, but she just felt cold.

"Qiao Yuan." She said.

The room was very quiet, the warm air and the faint smell of alcohol made people feel dizzy. Hang Si's voice was very light, but it scared me.

This name was like a taboo to her, especially on a night like this, and she broke this taboo with her own hands to awaken an extremely dangerous person.

Lu Nanshen didn't react, his breathing remained steady and quiet.

Hang Si applied a little more strength, shook his shoulders twice, and said word by word, "Isn't now the best time for you to come out? Or did I overestimate you?"

The man on the bed remained motionless.

Hang Si hesitated.

Was she wrong? Once the main personality got drunk, would the secondary personalities also be affected? Hang Si raised his eyebrows. Could Lu Nanshen, as the main personality, have such strong control?
It seems that we have no choice but to think of other solutions, but the question is, is there enough time?
Hang Si pulled his hand back.

Unexpectedly, someone grabbed my wrist.

She was startled and looked closely. It was Lu Nanshen. His big hand was holding her wrist with great strength. The man's hand was not very warm, as if it was not affected by alcohol and fire. Hang Si felt that familiar coolness quickly spread throughout her body.

Then Lu Nanshen slowly turned around.

In the darkness, he looked into her eyes.
