Chapter 5

I believe that anyone who wakes up at midnight will be scared and sweating all over when he finds himself sleepwalking, and Qi Chen is no exception.

The moment he realized where he was, the reality and the dream were mixed and intertwined. He couldn't even figure out whether it was the dim dream that just now caused his sleepwalking behavior or was projected into the dream.

Of course, no matter which one it is, it is terrible.

Qi Chen closed his eyes and breathed, calming his heartbeat like a drumbeat.

"Returning to the soul?" A low voice suddenly sounded in my ears, as always, with a sense of impatientness, making people wonder if this person is too hot all year round.

Qi Chen was so shocked that his eyes trembled, and he suddenly opened his eyes and turned his head to look at the side: "Why are you here?!"

Under the street lights on the corner of the street, Team Long looked at him with a stinking face.

The dim light fell on him, bringing out the protruding brow bones and straight nose bridge. This man clearly had two very beautiful eyes, but he liked to look at people half-hookedly, as if he always had a lazy contempt. Even though he was very tall, the bonus of this man's tone was absolutely indispensable. It seemed that he was born to look for a beating.

He snorted coldly, feeling that Qi Chen's question was simply unconscious: "I'm not here, the one who woke you up just now?"

Qi Chen laughed dryly: "I thought it was also what I dreamed of in my dream." Just like the overlapping old and low-dumb female voices, it was probably the only place where the dream and reality just now did not overlap.

Team Leader Long said angrily: "Yes, I dreamed that I slapped you in the forehead, right? Why don't you think that the touch in your dream can be so real?"

Qi Chen explained seriously: "I used to dream that someone turned over from the balcony and removed one of my legs, which was quite real."

Team leader Long: "..."

Qi Chen: "I also climbed over the Knife Mountain, rolled over nail boards, and other things, all over my face."

Team leader Long: "..."

Qi Chen: "Twist the oil pan, cook, fry and fry—"

"Stop and stop!" Team leader Long's mouth twitched: "What kind of mess do you dream of is this?!"

As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Qi Chen pursing his lips and laughing lightly. Then he realized that the first half of the words just now might be trustworthy, and the latter was probably talking nonsense seriously.

So Team Leader Long rolled his eyes.

In fact, if he changed to normal, with Qi Chen's indifferent appearance and calm personality, he would never talk to others like this when he had only known each other for a day. Especially during the day, he was not happy at all, as if he was not in line with the other person.

However, before Qi Chen could completely escape from his previous panic, he thought he was standing alone in the middle of the night, any acquaintance appeared beside him, which made him feel extremely friendly and pleasing, even a few hours ago, he still classified the person in front of him as a "heartless man with the surname Long" in his heart.

Team Leader Long's temperament, who was born with a beating, was particularly easy to calm Qi Chen's mood in this situation.

Qi Chen, who was gentle and calm on the surface, was actually a very unpromising fence-between in some aspects, and his class position was extremely easy to shake. In just a few minutes, he had released the "heartbroken man surnamed Long" from the blacklist of "can't afford to be offended" and silently moved into the "occasional provocation" group.

Of course, Team Leader Long, who owes eight million, is completely unaware of Qi Chen's mental activities every day. He still spoke with an impatient expression: "If you have time to talk nonsense here, it is better to move your legs and leave!"

After saying that, he really didn't care whether Qi Chen followed or not, and turned around and left, while walking, he threw a cold sentence: "Why am I so idle?"

He had a long legs and a long stride, and had already walked a distance while talking. Seeing that Qi Chen had not followed, he stopped again and turned to the person behind him and said, "Are you stupid? Why don't you leave?"

Qi Chen coughed and looked at him innocently: "The feet are frozen and numb."

Team leader Long wiped his face and said, "Stomp!"

Qi Chen: "Haha... is stomping."

He bent down and rubbed his calves, warmed it a little, and then moved his feet again, until his toes, which had almost no sense of consciousness, finally felt a sense of presence again, and then he stood up.

As a result, I saw someone who had already walked out for a distance standing in front of me again: "...Why are you walking back? I will catch up with you in a while."

Team leader Long spoke coldly: "I'll see if your feet are frozen or not."

"..." Qi Chen: "It's a little regretful, it has regained consciousness."

Team leader Long snorted, swept Qi Chen from head to toe from top toe, and sneered: "I saw you wearing this outfit, I thought you were not afraid of cold. Why didn't you just wear shorts?"

Qi Chen looked down at the cotton long-sleeved T-shirt and home pants he was wearing, and laughed dryly: "I will remember to change my clothes and wrap it in a scarf next time I sleepwalk."

Team leader Long: "..."

Qi Chen was awake now, and his physical functions also woke up. He didn't feel the cold in his sleep before, and then he rushed into the bones one after another. It took only a few words. His voice was filled with a cold nasal sound, and his nose and eye sockets were also red from the cold, and his fair skin was very obvious.

Seeing that he was frozen like this, Team Dragon said "tsk", then took off the sheep wool coat on his body and threw it on Qi Chen: "Put it on!"

Qi Chen was a little slow to react because he was frozen. He didn't have time to catch his coat, but was directly covered by the clothes and was immediately surrounded by a burst of warm heat.

"What do you wear for me? I've frozen this way anyway. How much can I deal with when I go back and cook some ginger tea? You can take off my clothes. Isn't this a pair of frozen ones? It's not cost-effective." Qi Chen was covered in his clothes, and the first half of the sentence was muffled.

Team leader Long looked at him with a strange look and struggled to pull his clothes away from his face: "I really admire you. I still have time to think about whether it is cost-effective at this time. Do you think I am the kind of paper you have, and you will run away when you freeze? Hurry up and leave, so much nonsense!"

Besides, this person probably had to be blown up again, Qi Chen was no longer pretentious and quickly followed someone with a thorn all over his body while walking towards the company and wrapped himself in a coat.

He is not very tall, and according to the form of the physical examination, it is 1.78 meters. He is usually shameless and said that he is 1.8 meters tall, but he is still half a head short in front of Team Leader Long. In addition, he is a little thin. The little muscle he made of when Xu Liang was dragged to the gym to slapped in college is now only a thin layer of muscle left. He can't tell when wearing loose clothes like this, let alone compared to Team Leader Long.

So the coat wrapped around him seemed to be bigger, making him look thinner.

Team leader Long seemed to be really not afraid of the cold. He still strided heavily when he walked. Qi Chen couldn't keep up, and gradually he was left with more than two steps.

He saw the man walking in front turning his head while walking, with a sense of impatient expression in his expression, and he seemed to want to say something to urge him, but after somehow he looked at him, he swallowed the words with conscience, and then sighed with disgust and helplessness, slowing down.

After walking a few steps, he thought of something and said to Qi Chen, "Did you hear what you said to you at the stairs tonight?"

Qi Chen couldn't remember any sentence: "What?"

"Tsk——" Team leader Long felt that his patience in his life was almost exhausted, and he looked disgusted: "Can you change the tofu flower in your head for a brain flower? Use your brain to not use your face when you hear people speak."

Qi Chen calmly ignored a series of personal attacks: "What did you say?"

Team Leader Long: "Let you not run around outside at night! There are enough people wandering around in the city, so you are not short of those two of you. If you get some messy things, just wait to cry and call me for your parents."

After wrapping the coat tighter on his body, Qi Chen turned his head and wondered: "Do you still believe this?"

"Who do you believe?" Team Leader Long replied lukewarmly, "Just listen to me when you tell me, there is not so much nonsense."

Qi Chen nodded: "I don't like going out at night if it's okay."

After walking for a while, Qi Chen followed the previous topic: "I don't really believe this, because I haven't encountered anything since I've grown up, but I've heard some of it say. Have you encountered it?"

He saw that Team Leader Long seemed to glance at him speechlessly and said casually: "I'm going to go too much."

Qi Chen tilted his head and looked at him, as if he was very curious: "Tell me?"

Team leader Long: "..."

Qi Chen pointed to the front part and said seriously: "It's almost concise enough to say one or two."

Team Leader Long twitched the corner of his mouth: "Now isn't the time when you were so scared that you were trembling just now, right?!"

"I wasn't scared to death just now." Qi Chen said lightly: "Actually, I've had sleepwalking several times before. It is said that this will happen when the pressure is high or the environment changes suddenly. I probably think it's the same. However, this is the first time I woke up halfway, and I'm really a little panicked."

Team leader Long glanced at him: "The one who should be furious should be the one who saw you sleepwalking."

"But why did you see me sleepwalking?" Qi Chen asked, looking at the coat on his body.

Team leader Long said: "I happened to go to the supervision room, but I happened to see you swaying like a wandering soul."

Qi Chen: "..." I went to the supervision room without going to bed at two or three o'clock in the middle of the night? Do you know that you are so dedicated to your post?

Team leader Long said angrily: "Look at what I do? Take back your ghost eyes! You are sick!"

Qi Chen was innocent: "...I said nothing."

The long night is getting deeper and the chill is stronger than the deep winter. The first snow in Jiangshi this year actually fell silently at this time.

When Qi Chen woke up in the morning, he found that he was indeed hit. His eyes were blurred and his nose was stuffy, and his whole body was so soft that he couldn't use his strength. He pressed his extremely heavy head and cooked a small pot of thick ginger tea, poured it down a cup by himself, and then used a newly bought thermos cup to fill the rest, intending to take it to the office to Team Leader Long.

The climate in Jiang City is slightly humid. The snow fell last night until this morning, but the road did not accumulate much. The people who came and went to the crowd had only a thin layer of ice residue left, which was very slippery.

He walked into the front door of the office building with a thermos cup in his arms and saw a colleague in the yard almost slipping, but he barely maintained his balance in a flexible posture, turned over and stood up straight. Another person walking side by side with him sighed: "The waist strength of the whip is good..."

"..." Qi Chen felt that he was probably having a cold that was too heavy and his ears were out of touch.

In companies like Guanghe, which deal with cultural relics collections, employees always pay much more attention to industry news than others. As long as they are related to the things dug out of the mud, even if they are just trivial matters, they will reflexibly care about conditioned matters.

However, what Qi Chen heard in the office that day was not a trivial matter, but a museum was stolen.

"Just the Municipal Museum diagonally in Ceylon Plaza, the one who lost the gold-inlaid jade bracelet dug out in Baihe a while ago. There was news online." After Hong Ming finished speaking to Qi Chen, he turned to ask the leader of the Dragon behind him, "Hey, is there any movement on the director?"

Team leader Long frowned and sniffed the ginger tea brought by Qi Chen with great grudges, and replied, "No, why? You were itchy all over your body just after a long rest?"

"What the hell is this? I won't drink it!" He pushed the thermos aside with disgust, "I'm so healthy that I drink what to do with this thing!"

Qi Chen happened to find news online and was poking into the link to read it. After listening to Team Leader Long's words, he said without even turning back his head with a strong nasal voice: "Are you afraid of spicy food?"

Team leader Long probably felt that all the evaluations related to the word "fear" were a great insult to his personality. He was immediately inspired to pick up the thermos cup and pour a whole cup of ginger tea. Then he got up and put the cup heavily on Qi Chen's table with a "bang" sound, snorted coldly and left the office, leaving a sentence: "I'll go to the supervision room to look for Lao Hu." Then he disappeared.

Qi Chen glanced at the thermos with some amusement, then turned his gaze back to the web page-

According to the news, the museum was invaded last night. The man touched the exhibition area of ​​the cultural relics unearthed from Baihe and stole the gold-inlaid jade bracelet, but did not alarm any anti-theft device. The camera only captured a very vague figure and broke down, leaving a large section of snowflakes.

A few pictures were placed behind the news. The first two are photos of the gold-white jade bracelets, and the last two are photos cut out from the surveillance video.
