Even if a fisherman enters an infinite game, he still has to cast a rod

The trial lasted all night.

It was not until dawn broke and the morning light appeared that the master and disciple had asked enough questions and finally let the poor dean go.

Breathing the fresh mountain air in the early morning, the two walked in the yard and continued their discussion, listing the most likely suspects of the sect leader.

Jiang Jian pondered: "Although Vincent is telling the truth under the influence of the third watch, this is only his one-sided opinion. We cannot rule out the possibility that Jack is the sect leader. He may not have recovered and is just hanging around here."

Jiang Yuan: "And Tony, he might want to take revenge on Vincent."

Jiang Jian: "Fish is also a big suspect."

Jiang Yuan blinked: "Why?"

Jiang Jian deduced: "As the most dangerous patient in the spiritual retreat, and also the young master who controls the lifeblood of this place, wouldn't it be easy for him to do something bad?"

Jiang Yuan: "But in his dream, he reminded us to hurry up."

Master Jiang patted his apprentice on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Jiang, this is the mental hospital of the Writing Spiritual Retreat. Maybe the master himself doesn't know that he is the master... Wait?"

Jiang Jian paused and said, "Then Vincent cannot be ruled out."

Jiang Yuan: "... Doesn't that mean that you are reasoning like a tiger, but in the end, no one is ruled out?"

Jiang Jian spread his hands and gave the best solution: "Kill them all, you will always get a real one."

Jiang Yuan objected: "Master, no! If you kill the clue, we will be stuck!"

Jiang Jian held his forehead with his hand.

He was really fed up with his apprentice's red tape.

If it were some extreme detachment of the Ministry of Security, the spiritual temple would have been littered with corpses by now, with not a single living person left.

"Anna!"

At this time, at the end of the path in the spiritual retreat, the head nurse rushed towards Jiang Yuan in a hurry, interrupting their conversation.

"Where have you been so early in the morning?! Ward rounds are about to start, come here and get ready!"

Jiang Yuan stood at attention and said, "Report to the head nurse! George said he was not feeling well, so I took him out to relax."

The head nurse narrowed her eyes and looked at Jiang Jian: "Oh, really?"

Jiang Jian had no choice but to act like a fool with a crooked nose and slanted eyes, and successfully fooled the crowd.

Head Nurse: "Okay, send George back quickly and come to gather together later."

She was about to leave, but Jiang Yuan stopped her and asked, "By the way, head nurse, do you know Tony?"

The head nurse frowned and said unhappily, "Tony? Why are you asking him?"

Jiang Jian said stupidly, "We heard that he is the dean's best friend?"

"Nonsense!"

The head nurse put her hands on her hips and angrily cursed, "Tony, that lunatic, coward, bad-tempered boy, he is not worthy of being the dean's friend!"

"After he beat up Dean Vincent, he ran away without saying a word."

Jiang Yuan: "He's missing?"

"maybe."

The head nurse thought for a moment, lowered her voice, and said seriously, "But many people saw Tony wandering around the back hill of the spiritual monastery."

"The monster in Kuchazi Village appeared after Tony disappeared. I guess he must have used black magic to do it. He is taking revenge on us, but the dean just doesn't believe it."

After a brief discussion about the next task, the master and apprentice decided to act separately.

Jiang Jian went to the back mountain to look for Tony's whereabouts, while Jiang Yuan stayed and used his identity as a nurse to investigate Fish and other patients.

*

After following the doctors in their rounds, Jiang Yuan did not collect any new clues.

Taking advantage of his free time, he was about to sneak off to look for Fish, but his attention was drawn by the movement in the lobby of the main building.

"Come on, Jack, you can do this."

Jack?

Jiang Yuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw on the old TV on the side of the hall a young man in a classical European-style suit, holding a rapier, standing on a temporary stage, as if he was about to perform something.

And the voice of Vincent just now, cheering Jack on from outside the screen, should be the one who filmed the video.

Below the TV, patients sat in chairs and commented:

"Really? Who let this guy out again?"

"If stupid Jack could be an actor, I would cut off your head and eat it."

"Swallow your own."

"He won't be popular. He looks like a nobody. If he wants to be a star, Vincent is more suitable."

Only then did Jiang Yuan see what Jack looked like.

As they were relatives, he and Vincent looked somewhat similar, but also very different.

Vincent has blond hair, blue eyes and a distinct three-dimensional appearance.

Jack has short, naturally curly dark brown hair, grey eyes, a delicate appearance, soft features, light freckles on his milky white cheeks, and he habitually purses his lips, looking awkward and shy.

Although it is not ugly, it is indeed not as good as Vincent.

Off-camera, Vincent's voice was heard again: "Jack, take a deep breath, relax, and imagine that the audience is a group of big white radishes. You can do it!"

On the stage, Jack was amused by the man holding the camera, took a deep breath and cleared his throat.

The surroundings darkened and the spotlight came on.

Jack stood in the light and began his performance.

"To be or not to be? That is the question."

"Should I silently endure the ruthless blows of fate, or stand up and fight against the endless sufferings of the world...!"

Jiang Yuan felt that this performance was good, full of emotions, able to control his emotions freely and quite infectious, and was completely different from his previous state.

Just as Jack was performing the exciting part, someone walked towards Vincent outside the screen and whispered, "Just be a fan, why do you want him to go out and embarrass himself?"

The camera moves to capture the speaker's vest and suit jacket.

Before Vincent could speak, a patient started to complain: "It's so ugly! I don't want to watch such a childish show! Change the channel!"

He took out the videotape, replaced it with a cartoon called Cube Babies, and watched it carefully with the patients present.

Jiang Yuan picked up the videotape, on which was written "Record of Jack's First Performance" in beautiful handwriting.

It seems that Vincent really supports Jack.

While deep in thought, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye.

Jiang Yuan turned his head and found that his target person today had appeared.

At the back of the hall, Fish, wearing a light blue straitjacket, was walking around with his head down, as if looking for something.

Jiang Yuan walked over and asked, "Fish, what are you looking for?"

Fish stopped and looked at Jiang Yuan, and said seriously: "The paper is used up."

Jiang Yuan: "What kind of paper? Do you want to write?"

Fish shook his head and explained, "Fold it."

As he spoke, he quietly stood in front of a patient who was sitting in a corner, reading a newspaper upside down.

When the patient saw Fish, he immediately handed the old newspaper to the young master in fear, leaned against the wall, and crawled away.

It was as if Fish wasn't coming to ask for paper, but for his life.

After getting the newspaper, Fish took a few outdated magic magazines from the bookshelf.

Apparently any paper will do.

So Jiang Yuan generously took out three stacks of new prescription pads from the nurses' station, handed them to the young master, and said, "Are these enough? What do you want to fold?"

"Folding flowers."

Fish took the notebook and said, "That person is among many flowers, so you need to fold a lot of flowers."
