After hearing Gong Yingxian's description, Dr. Pompeii looked down at the information in his hand: "this is the mask."

That's a screenshot from Ziyan's video. It's very clear. The bird's mask is dark gray, and some features are deliberately exaggerated. For example, a very prominent and huge beak, two big and round eyes, but no feathers. On the whole, there is a surreal grotesque, which is not based on any real birds.

Gong Yingxian said, "we have investigated this mask. There are no similar products on the market, nor have we found it in any artistic creation. It is a unique image."

"Can you see what the material is in the video?"

"Plaster, made by 3D printer."

"That's what I modeled and made myself."

"Yes." Gong Yingxian said, "but there was no 3D printer in those years. If you want to do such a thing, you must go to the factory and spend a very high price on Modeling and production. This is also a reason why I doubt the authenticity of the mask."

"What about hand carving?" Ren asked.

"Of course, but what's the meaning?" Gong Yingxian said, "if it's just to cover the face, it's OK to buy a mask in the store. Why bother to make such a mask, unless it has very important symbolic significance, such as the totem of the organization."

"But you haven't found a similar image in the whole network." Dr. Pompeii thought, "this is not in line with the psychological characteristics of pyromania. Pyromania suppresses discontent in reality and can only express its strong coward psychology through arson. If this mask is really so important, someone will have to show it for 19 years. On the one hand, it is to show off their masterpiece and on the other hand, it is to gain recognition from the same kind."

Gong Yingxian nodded: "I think so too, so I increasingly doubt the authenticity of this mask. From another angle, if this mask is made by Ziyan temporarily, everything is easy to explain."

"So, you don't think what you saw was this mask, but Ziyan gave you a psychological hint and combined this mask with your memory."

"Not in memory, but in imagination." Gong Yingxian frowned. "In fact, I never really remember the specific appearance of the mask."

"Yes, when you mentioned the mask to me, I guided you for a long time, but you couldn't describe the specific color, style and characteristics of the mask. You only knew that it was a bird's mask, because you were only in your teens, and this memory occurred at the age of six. I once questioned the authenticity of this memory."

"I know, you told me."

"But you insist that you have seen such a mask, so I helped you do deep hypnosis. You returned to the scene to confirm this, but you still can't tell what the mask looks like."

Doubts appeared on Gong Yingxian's face: "I don't know why."

Ren Yu looked at the picture and felt that the mask was a bit like something, but he couldn't remember what it was for a moment.

"This is very normal. You were greatly stimulated at that time. Compared with other missing memories, it's too normal to remember a mask that you only saw once." Dr. Pompeii said, "I haven't taken the mask as the focus of your treatment, and it's not advisable to return to the scene frequently. If you hadn't asked again and again, I wouldn't agree with those hypnosis."

"Those hypnosis were necessary and helped me recall a lot of things."

Dr Pompeii sighed, "but it's dangerous, very dangerous."

Gong Yingxian didn't listen to this "danger" in her ear: "so I think..."

"No." Dr. Pompeii immediately saw through his intention and flatly refused, "as I said on the phone, if you want to ask for deep hypnosis, I won't come back."

Ren Yu looked at Gong Yingxian in surprise.

Gong Yingxian said gravely, "doctor, the case has reached the most critical moment. In the past six months, I have got a lot of clues. Now when I go back, I will gain more than before."

"I gave you three times of deep hypnosis. The first time I failed, the second and third time I pulled you back when you were about to collapse, and then you recovered for a long time. After you went to the police academy, your sense of independence and vigilance became stronger, and the subconscious outsiders would resist. In addition, you are now eager for truth. I'm afraid that it will be difficult to control during hypnosis I can't take such a risk. "

Gong Yingxian said positively, "even if it is dangerous, I must try. Catching Ziyan is not just for me. For one day, countless people's lives and property are threatened."

Ren Yu advised, "Ying Xian, you should listen to the doctor. I think you are too anxious. This is not the only way. Haven't you made progress all the time?"

Gong Yingxian looked at Ren Yu deeply: "I can't help being anxious." Among all the people whose lives are threatened, Ren Yu is in the first echelon.

Dr Pompeii said seriously: "Ying Xian, I understand your mood, but I'm your doctor. I'm not only responsible for your safety, but also abide by the medical practice norms. Now I can't agree to your requirements. Taking you back to the scene of the fire is an extreme means. If I miss, you will be torn to pieces by pain and despair in your memory, and the previous achievements of more than ten years of treatment may be wasted."

Gong Yingxian bowed his head with a calm face.

Dr. Pompeii comforted him: "Captain Ren is right. This is not the only way. I will stay here for some time, do academic exchanges, and then try my best to help you in other aspects."

Gong Yingxian barely nodded.

"I think we should go back to this mask." Dr. Pompeii looked at the picture of the mask. "This mask is very strange, like... The big eyes of owls and the big mouth of hornbills. As far as I know, no birds look like this."

"I feel like that kind of street graffiti." Ren Yu said, "don't you think? Anyway, when I see it, it feels like something I've seen. This style is too modern and fashionable. It really doesn't look like the aesthetics that China would have 19 years ago."

"Yes, very young, with a little..." Dr. Pompeii thought for a long time before he thought of the appropriate adjective, "industrial style."

Ren Yi said, "let's assume that this mask is made by Ziyan, not the one you once saw, but in this way, is Ziyan an insider of that year?"

Gong Yingxian was silent.

Ren Yu said, "I have an intuition. Ziyan is. Although it's just an intuition..." he looked at Gong Yingxian and looked frankly. "I definitely didn't say that to comfort you. What do I really think? The words Ziyan said in the video made me feel that he didn't say more."

"I understand." Gong Yingxian said, "after analyzing Ziyan's video, our criminal psychology expert also believes that when he mentioned the events of that year, he did not show guilty conscience or lack of confidence, which proves that he is very confident in what he said. I also tend to think he is an insider, but I still think this mask is false."

Dr. Pompeii analyzed: "At the moment you see the mask, you are bluffed. You think the mask is true because Ziyan creates an atmosphere that gives you strong psychological hints. After that atmosphere disappears, rational thinking makes you doubt. This is a very logical psychological process, and the truth is very high, because the mask can't deceive you under the condition of many psychological hints, so it's difficult Mostly false. "

Gong Yingxian rubbed his eyebrows: "but what if this is my rebellious psychology?"

"You mean, multiple hints. Because you resist in your heart, even if the face may be true, you have to hint that you are false just to reasonably doubt it."

Gong Yingxian said weakly, "well," what I doubt most now is my own memory, because they are not complete. "

Ren Yu's head is big.

"You really have reason to doubt your memory. We can not rush to judge this, because the current problem is very complex and can't be solved at the moment. We can continue to find a way out from other places." Dr. Pompeii said, "we continue to assume that Ziyan knows, but doesn't know the details. He may bet that you were young and didn't remember what the mask looks like, so he tried to test you with this mask. Anyway, success or failure seems to have no loss to him."

"Did he do this just to make me confused?" Gong Yingxian bit his teeth. "When I saw the mask, I really panicked."

"It makes you confused and scared, so that he can control you better. However, he underestimated your ability, and you succeeded in lifting the crisis. Several events that happened later, including the package and the barbecue shop, proved Ziyan's anger. He felt that you humiliated him and challenged his authority. Moreover, Baiyan's wanted and the failure of the barbecue shop explosion will make him continue to implement Crime, revenge, to save face. " Dr. Pompeii said, "I suggest that at this time, you should not only investigate the case silently, but also fight him back in his way."

Ren Yu stared: "how to fight back?"

Dr Pompeii narrowed his eyes. "If you want to know the meaning of this mask, put it on the blazing angel."
