"Oh, detective, what are you going to do?"
Mr. Jims was so frightened that he almost stood up, Shad hurriedly comforted him:
"Don't worry, I have a gun license."
As he spoke, he took out his documents.
"Detective, do you think that's what I care about?"
Mr. Jims asked in horror, and then looked at Dr. Schneider, but the doctor shrugged:
"He really had a legal gun."
Xia De had already taken out a bullet at this time, and put it in his palm to signal Mr. Jims to check:
"You see, it's a real bullet."
He turned on the wheel of the [Gun of Kindness] and asked Mr. Jims to confirm that there was nothing in the six cylinders. Shad then pressed the bullet into one of the cylinder chambers and clicked the wheel back into place. Turn the wheel at will to rotate it until the three of them can't confirm the position of the bullet just now.
Thumbing down on the ram, Shad dropped the revolver on the table and pushed it aside to Mr. Jims.
The thin middle-aged man looked at Xia De with the look of a madman:
"Detective, I just want to treat my mental illness, not to... It will only affect my quality of life if it is not cured, but if I am unlucky and fire the right gun, I will die Lost."
"So, that's what it's really about, putting yourself in danger. You have a five-in-six chance that nothing will happen, but the moment you pull the trigger, that imminent death, the memories of the past come flooding back. Maybe it can wash away the illusion of facing a fatal crisis at any time."
Shad said, Mr. Jims was really moved for a moment, but immediately shook his head again:
"Oh, I'm probably really crazy. I was almost persuaded by you. Detective, I admit that your statement has some truth, but it's too risky. No, I will never do it."
"Xia De, it's better to be conservative in the treatment."
Dr. Schneider also said cautiously that he actually knew which gun Xia De was carrying with him.
"Oh well."
Shad reached out to pick up the gun on the table, because it was already in the ready state, so Mr. Jims sitting opposite him was carefully avoiding the muzzle of the gun
"Detective, be careful!"
Mr. Jims leaned back carefully.
"My gun won't go off."
While talking, Xia De aimed the gun at his chest—

At the moment of pulling the trigger, Mr. Jims visibly shuddered, and immediately realized that the detective was lucky.
"Oh, Dr. Schneider, your detective friend is really... I admit that this method sounds very effective, but for the sake of my heart, detective, put the gun away... No, Please wait a moment."
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and reached out to Xia De. Xia De raised his eyebrows in surprise, and put the gun into his hands. Mr. Jims overwhelmed the ram and pointed the gun at the back of his left hand.
"That's courage."
Dr. Schneider sighed softly.
The accountant took another few deep breaths, then closed his eyes and tilted his head to the right, finally pointed at the back of his hand and pulled the trigger—

The bullet also failed to fire, and Mr. Jims, who was panting heavily, opened his eyes with a smile on his face:
"This, this is really interesting."
He handed the pistol to Shad, who noticed that he was sweating.
"Do you still feel like you're in danger now?"
Doctor Schneider immediately asked dutifully.
"Yes."
said Mr. Jims, took a big gulp from his glass, and added emphatically:
"Although it still feels dangerous, the detective's proposal is effective, and the sense of danger is obviously much less."
Shad didn't express his opinion. He touched Mr. Jims's hand in the process of retracting the pistol, and found that there were very faint traces of miracle elements on the other party's body. The trace was almost imperceptible, probably the same as just walking out of the church.
"Which **** do you believe in?"
Xia De asked when putting the gun back into the gun bag, Mr. Jims hesitated for a moment, and then said softly:
"Oak God, [White Sacred Tree]."
"Um?"
Dr. Schneider showed a surprised expression, and Xia De also frowned slightly.
The [White Sacred Tree] mentioned by Mr. James is a little-known old god. In addition to being called the "Oak God", it is also known as the "Lucky Tree". Legend has it that it can bring people good luck.
"Mr. Jims, why didn't you tell me about it?"
Dr. Schneider put down his pen and asked with a serious expression.
"Shouldn't that have anything to do with my question?"
asked Mr. Jims.
"But......"
"Mr. Jims, is this a family belief?"
Xia De interrupted the doctor, so the doctor didn't ask any more questions. He could see that Xia De seemed to have seen something.
"Yes, my father, my grandfather, my great-grandfather, have always believed in the Great One."
Mr. Jims said piously, drawing a tree-shaped holy emblem on his chest.
"Do you have a family sacred object? Such as a holy emblem or a statue?"
Shad continued to ask, but Mr. Jims hesitated for a while, obviously not wanting to speak. But since he hasn't spoken for a long time, it means the answer in itself.
This incident is most likely not a psychological problem, but the extraordinary items related to the old **** [White Sacred Tree] passed down by Mr. Jims' family are reminding him that he will really encounter a fatal danger recently.
Although the gods have left, the magical items that contain the power of the old gods may still be effective even if they do not transform into relics. As for why it suddenly came into play in Mr. James's generation, probably that item was also on the verge of complete destruction, this is the last power.
"The Old God [White Sacred Tree] is also known as the tree of luck, that is to say, it is that item that peeks into a little bit of fate. Mr. Jims will really encounter a fatal crisis in the near future. The sense of crisis is getting stronger and stronger, which means The danger is getting closer."
Xia De was thinking in his heart, while Dr. Schneider suddenly raised his hand and waved in front of Mr. Jims. The middle-aged man's eyes immediately became dazed, and then he closed his eyes and lay down on the table.
"He fell asleep temporarily."
The doctor said that the three of them were in a remote corner, and no one was paying attention to them. He lowered his voice and asked:
"Mr. Jims has a special item on him?"
"It's not on me, it should be in the luggage."
Otherwise, Xia De would have sensed it long ago:
"That item is not important. The problem now is, doctor, it is really possible that your patient may encounter fatal danger recently, but we don't know the exact time."
Dr. Schneider nodded slowly, and raised his wine glass with some annoyance:
"I'm just his psychiatrist, not his bodyguard. I can't be by his side to protect him all the time. If your analysis is correct, then no one can help him. He can only face his upcoming fate by himself."
Both of them closed their mouths and looked at the middle-aged man who was sleeping on the table. What ring warlocks can fight against is the immediate danger, and the unknown danger in the future, and they have no good way.
"However, since it is a danger detected by a suspected magical item, there is a high probability that it is also related to mystery."
The doctor added that he had more experience than the outlander who had only been a ring magician for half a year:
"In my opinion, there is a high probability that this gentleman will die in the future due to out-of-control relics."
"Then we can't help him even more. I met a man who was predicted to die of a brain disease during the first snowfall in Fort Midhill in the fall. In order to avoid his fate, the guy actually bumped into me. hands...I understood a long time ago that if you try to play with fate, you will definitely be played by fate."
What Xia De said was categorical, because he had received an impressive lesson. The doctor sighed helplessly. If they could help him, Dr. Xia De and Dr. Schneider were willing to lend a helping hand. But the problem now is that they are also powerless.
"Let me charge less for medical treatment."
The blue-eyed psychiatrist finally concluded:
"May the gods he believes in protect him. Sometimes, people really shouldn't know their fate in advance."
Xia De sighed and didn't speak any more, while the doctor was going to have a short-term fast dream, modifying the memory of Mr. Jims before he fell asleep, so that he wouldn't see the clues. Afterwards they will go to check what is in the room where Mr. Jims lives, but even if they do find a magical item with the power of the old gods, it will not help defuse the danger Mr. Jims is about to face.
It is very simple for ordinary people to fall asleep. There are materials in the doctor's briefcase. With a little arrangement, it can be completed in a few minutes.
While the doctor was preparing, Xia De held his wine glass and looked towards the direction of the stairs to prevent anyone from noticing what happened here.
But it was such a coincidence that the doctor had just started preparing, and two people actually walked up the stairs on the second floor where no one came for half an hour.
One of them was wearing a headscarf and had dark skin. He was Mr. Alan Madison, the team leader of the local correspondence ring magician group of the Serks Higher Medical College. Following him up the stairs was a young girl, wearing a floral dress, with long pale golden hair **** and hanging behind her head.
Xia De had never seen that face before. He thought it was the other local correspondence ring magicians from the Serkses Higher Medical College, but he realized immediately:
"Is that..."
【Marguerite Anjou】
Xia De and Dr. Schneider were sitting in a very remote corner. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com could see them from the stairs, but the two people who went up to the second floor did not find Xia De and the other three at the first time.
In addition to the poor lighting, it was also because Mr. Madison and Princess Margaret walked to the other side of the second floor after they came to the second floor, and then looked at the middle-aged man sitting alone at the table drinking woman.
Xia De looked at the woman again, and then saw that the woman took off her head, took out the peanut stuck in her throat, then put her head back on her neck and continued to sit and drink alone.
