Closing the door is a psychological suggestion to oneself, and the action of locking the door further deepens this suggestion.

This is a dream, or rather, the communication and construction of this "spiritual consciousness" are all carried out through dreams. What is most taboo is to follow the "new scene" with a puzzled face and directly enter someone else's rhythm, ignoring your own autonomy.

Immediately afterwards,

Karun turned around and returned to the bedroom,

Seeing himself lying in bed sleeping.

Karun breathed a sigh of relief, which meant that he was now on an equal footing with the "old man". The other party had applied to "chat" with him, and he had chosen to refuse.

In the bedroom, the sleeping self on the bed is not a suggestion, but a manifestation, which means that you have autonomy over this "dream".

Karun closed his eyes,

And when he opened them again,

Karun sat up directly from the bed.

It was already light outside, it was morning.

Puerh was awakened and said while rubbing her eyes with her cat paws:

"Karun, you're awake."

In the dog house, the Golden Retriever also got up, stretched his limbs and began to yawn.

Karun got out of bed, walked out of the bedroom door, looked at the closed study door, and the key that was originally inserted in the lock fell to the ground.

Bending down, he picked up the key and inserted it, opened the study door, and it was very quiet and clean inside.

Karun walked to the desk and found a book placed on the desk.

He picked up the book and looked at the cover. The title of the book was "Only Light Can Illuminate Your Past."

The author of this book is empty;

Karun remembered that he had found this book in the study bookcase, but he had chosen to skip it.

Yesterday when he entered the study, the desk was empty. It was impossible for Puerh or Kevin to come to the study to read books in the middle of the night, let alone read this book.

However, just to be cautious, Karun still shouted:

"Who came to the study last night?"

"Not me."

"Woof!"

"It said it wasn't me either."

"Oh, I had a dream last night. In the dream, I saw an old man sitting here reading a book. Now I found this book on the desk. In the dream, he also asked me to come in and chat."

Puerh tilted her head and asked, "So, what did you guys talk about?"

"Woof?"

"I closed the door and didn't talk."

"Well, wise choice." Puerh nodded.

"Woof!" The Golden Retriever also nodded.

"Could it be the former owner?" Puerh asked.

"I don't know. The former owner left the furniture but not a photo. I'll ask Alaiye about the appearance of the former owner when I come back from work."

"So, there is something new in the house, and you still have to go to work?" Puerh asked.

"Do you mean the house is haunted?" Karun asked back.

"More or less..."

"Look at yourselves and then look at Kevin. Do I need to worry about the house being haunted?"

"I think you make sense!"

"Woof!"

"You two stay at home today, check the house again, especially this study. Okay, I'm going to the hospital to visit Alfred. There's food in the kitchen, and there are snacks on the table. You guys can eat those."

"Oh, Karun, you don't have to worry about us. Even if we're stupid, we won't starve to death at home."

"Okay, I'm leaving."

Karun picked up his briefcase and the bag containing Alfred's clothes and walked out of the apartment.

"Should I take the tram or not?" Karun hesitated for a moment.

He wasn't hesitant because yesterday's incident left a shadow and he was afraid to take the tram, but because he was afraid that the tram on this route might not have resumed today because of yesterday's incident.However, fortunately, Karun saw a taxi parked in front of him. The driver was leaning against the door eating sauce-filled pancake he had just bought from a vendor.

The people of Wien love sauce. Various heavy-flavored sauces are almost an indispensable part of their lives. Therefore, the people of Wien also love pancakes because it is convenient to eat with sauce.

"Need a ride, sir?"

"Yes."

"Okay, please get in."

The driver wrapped the half-eaten pancake in a bag.

"No rush, you can finish your breakfast."

"No, can't delay the passenger's journey. Where to?"

"Kangyue Hospital."

"Okay."

Because it was early in the morning, before the rush hour, the traffic was good, and the car drove to the hospital without much obstruction. The fare was paid with the 200 Rael left from yesterday.

Then Karun suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to bring his bankbook. He had planned to withdraw money from the bank today.

Without rushing into the hospital, Karun first came to the mobile vendors in front of the hospital.

Okay,

Pancake stall!

"Oh, handsome sir, what would you like to eat?"

The woman in the apron looked at Karun and licked her lips. She was just blown by the cold wind in the morning, and her lips were a bit dry.

"Three pancakes."

"Okay, what flavor of sauce?"

"One without sauce, one with spicy sauce, and one with tomato sauce."

"I guess your friend who doesn't want sauce must be a solitary heretic." The woman said.

Karun nodded. He didn't want to eat anything with sauce.

"6 Rael, 5 Rael if you don't want sauce."

"Here."

"Okay, take it."

Karun carried three pancakes into the hospital, up the stairs, and into the ward.

In the ward, Hili was feeding Alfred with meat floss bread.

"Young master." Alfred smiled at Karun.

"Young master, you're here." Hili stood up.

Karun handed her the pancakes.

"Haha, pancakes!" Hili was very happy. "Young master, have you eaten? Which sauce did you choose?"

"I'll eat meat floss bread."

"Okay, young master."

"This is Alfred's clothes, your clothes are not here because they are at home." Karun said.

"Young master, I'm fine. I asked someone to pass on the message to my family last night, saying that I would take care of the employer here. My father and brother came to bring me clothes this morning, and they also bought me meat floss bread."

Obviously, Hili's position in the family had also significantly improved because of this high-paying maid job.

"In addition, Mr. Alfred's condition is very good. The doctor praised it as a medical miracle when he checked him last night. He said that he has been a doctor for so many years and has never seen such a good recovery from extensive burns. He said it was a gift from God."

"Cough..."

Hearing this, Alfred, who was eating pancakes, choked.

Hili immediately patted his back and fed him water.

After finishing the meat floss bread in his hand, Karun instructed, "I'm going to work first. Take care of yourself."

"Okay, young master."

"Don't worry, young master, leave it to me."

Karun nodded and walked out of the ward, went to the bathroom to wash his hands, walked out of the hospital building, and saw the hearse of the Pavarro family again.

The back door of the hearse was open, and Pik and Dingcombe were loading the body. This time, the body was not the fat man, and it was loaded quickly.

Karun walked over and greeted them, "So early?""Ha, it's you again." Pike responded with a smile. "We received another order this morning, just got the death certificate out. Thanks to you, the family of the deceased chose our funeral home because we chose to rush the injured to the hospital for rescue as soon as possible."

"It's the two of you on duty again. Where's Mr. Pavarotti?"

"The boss went out for some snacks. We rushed over as soon as we received the call in the morning. The boss got off the car halfway through. I think the ladies haven't woken up yet. The boss was still knocking on the door when we left."

"Mr. Pavarotti is really healthy and in good spirits."

Dingcom looked at Karun and said, "Your place is not far from our funeral home. Come visit us sometime."

"Sure, I will. I'll come to thank you in person when I finish what I'm doing. You guys go ahead, I'll leave first."

"Are you going back?"

"No, I'm going to the Saint Torre Building."

Dingcom spoke up, "Since it's not far, let us give you a ride. Pike, go drive."

"Okay."

"Is that okay?" Karun asked.

"What's not okay? It's hard to find a car at the door here."

"Thank you very much."

"Don't be so polite. We're all friends now."

At this moment, Pike jumped out of the driver's seat again. "Dingcom, there's still a document that needs to be stamped here."

"Go stamp it first."

"Okay." Pike smiled at Karun again. "I'll be right back."

After Pike ran away, Dingcom looked at Karun and suddenly said, "I heard from the boss lady that the gentleman who was brought in yesterday was your boss?"

Karun looked at Dingcom without answering immediately.

He knew that Pike was more straightforward, while Dingcom was more thoughtful. That's why when Pike shouted "Praise Order" that day, Dingcom reminded him.

Seeing Karun's silence, Dingcom continued, "But that day I heard that gentleman call you... Young Master?"

Sure enough, he remembered this detail.

"The boss lady was hoping to earn some money from you, haha."

This was a reminder to himself that the priest was his servant.

Karun nodded.

Now, it was Dingcom who didn't know what to say. Why did he just nod without speaking?

Karun's face showed no fear of being exposed as a "false identity," but rather calmly looked at him.

"Who are you exactly?" Dingcom asked.

To have a priest as his servant at such a young age, what kind of identity does he have?

"You didn't tell Mr. Pavarotti about this, did you?"

"No, I just thought of the address that day when I saw you."

"Okay, please keep this secret."

"Heh, why should I?"

Karun looked serious, his hands crossed in front of his chest.

"Praise Order."

"...Dingcom."

"When the person who maintains order becomes corrupt, the whip representing order needs to be used for punishment."

"You... You are the Whip of Order!"

"Hush." Karun made a "silence" gesture to Dingcom. "You are just a small servant of the gods. Our investigation of Mr. Pavarotti will not affect you no matter what the result is, unless you insist on getting involved."

"No, I won't. It has nothing to do with me."

"Okay, in fact, Mr. Pavarotti should have guessed our identities, that's why he was so proactive yesterday."

"I think the boss may not have... He has always been kind." Dingcom said.

"We need to judge this ourselves, not you."

"Yes, yes, I know. I won't say anything, I'll keep it a secret."

"Okay.""It's done." Pick ran back. "What were you guys talking about? You look so serious."

"Dingkom wanted to take me for some snacks, but I refused."

"Hahaha, Dingkom is such a fool. You are so handsome, why would you need to spend money on snacks?"

"I told him the same thing, so he got angry."

"Hahaha."

Pick laughed and sat back in the driver's seat.

When Karun got into the car, Dingkom reached out to help him, but Karun refused and sat down in the back seat by himself.

After Dingkom got into the car, he sat upright and rigidly across from Karun.

Pick hummed a song and drove the car, not noticing what was happening behind him.

On the way, they passed by the location of yesterday's tram explosion, where a group of protesters had already gathered with signs such as "Oppose Illegal Immigration" and "Purple Ghost Get Out of Wien."

However, what surprised Karun was that in front of the demonstrators, there was also a group of well-dressed people with purple hair negotiating with them. Despite the demonstrators' insults, accusations, and even shoving, the group of purple-haired people did not choose to fight back, even though they appeared to be bigger in size.

Pick whistled and drove past quickly while the traffic was not blocked by the protest, jokingly saying, "They didn't fight, they were actually reasoning with each other."

They soon arrived at the St. Torre Building, and when the car stopped, Dingkom reached out to help Karun open the back door. "Be careful."

Karun got out of the car and waved goodbye to them.

"You, my little god servant..."

Hehe, I am the almighty god.

"Karun."

A familiar voice sounded, and Karun turned around to see Piajie.

"The car you just got out of looks familiar."

"A hearse."

"With the fierce competition among funeral homes now, hearses are also trying to grab taxi business?"

"It's a funeral home close to where I live, and I know them. They gave me a ride."

"Oh, I see. So, are you doing a business survey?" Piajie teased. "I thought you were planning to open a funeral home in York City."

"I had that idea, but it's not practical yet. For now, being a psychologist is more suitable for me."

"I'm so glad to hear you say that as your friend and boss."

"Hehe."

"But if you plan to open one, you can contact me, and I'll invest in you."

"Well, I don't need investment right now, but I need an advance of 20,000 Rael."

"No problem. I'll have Bertha prepare the cash for you and deliver it to your office."

"Okay."

"I'll pay you back tomorrow."

"Just deduct it directly from your salary to save trouble."

"Okay."

Karun and Piajie walked into the elevator together. As the elevator rose, Piajie said, "You have an appointment today."

"Yes."

"You're early."

"It's about time. I need to prepare."

When they got out of the elevator, Karun pointed to the waiting area and saw the father and son from yesterday were already sitting there.

"You're not early, you're late," Piajie joked and walked towards his own office.

Bertha walked over and whispered, "Mr. Karun, the guest has arrived much earlier than the appointment time."

"It's okay. Let the guest come into my office in ten minutes."

"Okay, Mr. Karun."Karun walked into his office and sat down. He chose to put on his uniform because the patient's father followed him.

"Knock... knock..."

"Come in."

The office door was pushed open, and Basha led the father and son in. She handed him a medical record, and the secretary who followed her brought in a fruit plate and tea. Karun had a glass of ice water in front of him.

The door was closed.

"Do I need to go out?" The father asked Karun.

Karun was looking at the medical record and said, "Mr. Tadell?"

"Yes, that's me."

"Please sit down. You can accompany your son, but please don't interrupt me before I ask you a question."

"Okay, doctor."

Karun put down the medical record and looked at the little boy in front of him. "Good morning, little John."

"Hello, doctor. I'm sorry to have kept you busy before the appointment time. My father is too worried about my condition, so he brought me here early."

He was a mature child, only eight years old?

Strictly speaking, he was not yet eight years old.

"It's okay. I love my job. Your mother has passed away, but you can still see her at home and interact with her? I mean, playing together."

"Yes."

"What do you think about your mother's death? I'm sorry, I'm asking very directly."

"I like this direct way of communication." Little John smiled. "Yesterday's doctor kept talking nonsense to me like I was a child."

"Of course, we communicate as equals."

"Okay, I'll answer your question. I know my mother has passed away. She died when I was five years old, and I still remember her funeral."

"So, how do you feel about your mother's reappearance? Did she... come back to life?"

"No, my mother is dead."

"What about your mother now?"

"She is my mother."

"Your mother?"

"Yes, I know my mother is dead, but I feel very lonely at home alone, so I need a mother. When I need her, she appears, and she plays with me like a normal mother."

"Your understanding is very clear. Can you see your mother anywhere else besides at home?"

"I hope my father can go out for a while." Little John said.

"Mr. Tadell." Karun looked at Tadell.

"Okay." Mr. Tadell was straightforward, got up, walked out of the office, and closed the door.

"Now, can you speak?" Karun asked.

"I can."

"When?"

"Now."

"Here?"

"Yes."

Karun smiled and looked around. "Where is she?"

"My mother is sitting on your lap."

"On my lap?"

"Yes, my mother said you are much more handsome and attractive than my father, so she couldn't help but want to get close to you. But these words are not convenient for my father to hear. He will be hurt."

Karun lowered his head and looked at his lap, shaking his head. "I don't feel anything."

"Mother's hands are stroking your chest."

"I still don't feel anything."

"Mother's lips are touching your nose. She says your smell is very fragrant."

"I still don't feel anything."

"Mother is blowing air into your left ear."

"Hmm, still don't feel it."

Little John sighed and said, "You really have a reason to be more expensive than the doctor who helped me yesterday. Yesterday's doctor was so scared that he hid under the desk and trembled.""Hehehe." Karun laughed, "So, were you trying to hypnotize me just now?"

Little John nodded and said, "Your mental defense is impressive."

"I think you're a genius," Karun said, "but you should learn to control your talents."

"My father owns a textile factory and is quite wealthy. I can afford the medical expenses."

"So what?"

"I want to come and chat with you often. Is that okay?"

"Of course it is."

"Mom, I'm thirsty," Little John said.

At this moment, the water cup that was originally placed in front of Karun suddenly floated up and was sent to Little John's mouth. Little John opened his mouth and the water in the cup was fed to him little by little, as if there was an invisible woman feeding her child.

After drinking the water, Little John stuck out his tongue and smiled at Karun.

The water cup was put back on the desk.

Then, Karun seemed to hear the sound of high heels lightly stepping on the floor and walking towards him. Soon, "she" sat on his lap and her hands began to stroke his chest and neck. He also felt her breath slowly moving up, a warm airflow blowing gently into his ear.

Finally, his earlobe was wrapped in a warm sensation and teeth were gently biting it.

Little John shrugged and said, "I can close my eyes. My father won't come in even if you don't call him, so you can do something pleasant with my mother now."

"Don't you mind?" Karun asked.

"She's my mother, but she's already dead," Little John said playfully, shaking his head, "I believe you can understand the meaning behind this sentence."

Karun nodded and slowly raised his finger, tracing circles and silently reciting in his heart:

"Oh great god of order, the chain of order that judges all things;

Please allow me to use your power to punish those who violate the order..."

Little John covered his eyes with both hands and said, "You can start with her. Just pretend I don't exist. Look, I'm good to you. I paid you to see a doctor, you can receive a considerable fee, and also enjoy happiness. Hehe.

I'm good to you, so you should enjoy it quickly..."

Suddenly, all the strange feelings on Karun's body disappeared.

"Boom!"

Little John was scared and fell off the chair, looking up at Karun in shock and disbelief, "You...you...you actually wanted to kill me directly!"
