Chapter 1221 Insomnia

Zhang Heng followed Songjia into Dr. Baker's room.

Dr. Baker, on the other hand, stretched his head and quickly looked around the outside of the room before closing the door.

As Songjia said, the first floor is completely furnished as a clinic, with a small reception area, an old sofa, and a TV, separated by a curtain. Behind the curtain should be the treatment room.

It is certainly unreasonable to place such an arrangement elsewhere, because meeting with a psychiatrist is a very private matter, especially when receiving treatment, the patient may need to confide some of the secrets buried deep in his heart, so it is even more important. We need an undisturbed space to gain a sense of security, which cannot be separated from the reception area by just a curtain.

But here, because the number of patients on the island is very rare, basically once the date is agreed upon, Dr. Baker will not let anyone else in, so it won't have much impact.

"Long time no see, Dr. Baker, you don't look well. Are you sick?" Songjia asked after entering the room.

"I'm fine." Dr. Baker replied hurriedly. He did not open the curtain to let Zhang Heng enter the treatment room. Instead, he turned directly to a wardrobe and opened the wooden door. There were various bottles and cans on it. It was obvious that he usually When he was there, he used it as a medicine cabinet.

Dr. Baker rummaged around for a while and found a white medicine bottle. Zhang Heng's sharp eyes saw Zopiclone printed on the bottle. This is a sleeping pill and is commonly used in the market today. Compared with the previous two generations, it is safer and has lower tolerance and dependence.

Dr. Baker didn't look like he was going to help Zhang Heng with his diagnosis and treatment. He just wanted to get some sleeping pills and sent the latter away. But when he opened the white medicine bottle, he couldn't help but cursed in a low voice, and then put the bottle away. Covered it again and put it back on the shelf.

His movements were very fast, but he still couldn't escape Zhang Heng's eyes, and he said, "Doctor, have you been suffering from insomnia recently?"

"Well, I've been under a lot of work pressure during this period, so I also take some medicine before going to bed." Dr. Baker said casually, but even Songjia on the side could tell that he was talking nonsense. Everyone on the island knew Dr. Baker The clinic's business has not been good for a day or two. It has always been a bleak operation at best, and there are actually very few things going on at the school, so there is no work pressure.

However, Songjia didn't say anything. She watched Dr. Baker go to the refrigerator again, took out half a bottle of gummies, and stuffed it into Zhang Heng's hand, "Melatonin should be able to improve your sleep condition. One hundred Kerang, go back and eat for a while, if not, come back to me."

Zhang Heng glanced at the bottle of melatonin in his hand that was about to expire, but did not rush to pay the bill. He said calmly, "What will you do if I take it away?"

"Don't worry about me, I will restock." Baker waved his hand, and then stood there and stared at the two of them, with an expression that said you can leave.

This made Songjia, who had been emphasizing to Zhang Heng how hospitable the people on the island were along the way, look very embarrassed, especially before she had promised Zhang Heng that she might have dinner at Dr. Baker's house, but the latter He was chasing them away like flies, and Songjia even wondered if Dr. Baker had guessed their true purpose.

Zhang Heng did not move, but casually placed the bottle of melatonin on the sofa nearby, and then said again, "In addition to asking you to help me treat my illness this time, I actually have other things to do."

"You are their people?!"

It was obviously a very simple sentence, but for some reason Dr. Baker's expression changed drastically and he took half a step back. His originally bloodless face looked even paler.

Zhang Heng's eyes moved slightly. He originally wanted to follow Dr. Baker's words, but he didn't expect Songjia beside him to ask stupidly, "Who are their people?"

"Isn't it?" The terrifying light in Dr. Baker's eyes weakened slightly, but he still maintained a vigilant attitude and urged at the same time, "Get the medicine and leave quickly. We have nothing to talk about."

Songjia had no choice but to look at Zhang Heng again.

However, to her surprise, Zhang Heng actually said nothing more. He just looked deeply at Dr. Baker, then turned around and walked to the door.

And just as he was about to step out of the house, Dr. Baker's voice came from behind, "Wait a minute, you left something behind."

As he spoke, he picked up the bottle of melatonin from the sofa and threw it to Zhang Heng.

The latter caught it, took out a hundred kroner from his wallet, and put it on the shoe rack.

Songjia followed Zhang Heng back to the off-road vehicle in a daze. She seemed to be still wondering why Dr. Baker became like this. After a moment, she came back to her senses and asked Zhang Heng, "Where are we going next? Let's look for it." The person in the second photo?”

"Don't worry, it's time for dinner anyway, so let's go eat first, and then we'll go to the hotel and check in." Zhang Heng changed his attitude and was no longer anxious.

"Hey, aren't you going to continue the investigation?" Songjia asked with some confusion.

On the way here, she was originally worried that Zhang Heng would do something bad to Dr. Baker for the investigation, but now after meeting Dr. Baker, she became even more curious than Zhang Heng about what happened to him.

But then Zhang Heng said, "No, thank you very much for your help. Let's stop here for today. We will continue tomorrow."

Then Zhang Heng pointed to the bar across the street, "Is there any food there?"

"Well, there are beer, bread, freshly caught fish and shrimp, seal meat and so on," Songjia said, "but if you want to eat vegetables, you still have to go to a restaurant. Most of the vegetables on the island are flown from Denmark. I came here, so the price is..."

"It doesn't matter, just eat there, do as the Romans do, and you won't have to run around anymore." Zhang Heng said.

"good."

Although Songjia had a lot to ask, she still started the car after hearing what Zhang Heng said and moved it in front of the bar. When leaving, Songjia seemed to see Dr. Baker standing by the window again, watching them silently.

During the meal afterwards, Songjia spoke several times, wanting to continue to bring up the questions that had not been asked before, but Zhang Heng changed the topic. In the end, the two of them finished dinner in a somewhat dull atmosphere.

"Are you still used to it?" Songjia asked after the meal.

"What?" Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows.

"The food here is very different from your country," Songjia said. "Actually, there is a Hong Kong restaurant on the island. The fried rice there is delicious. If you are not used to it, we can go there."

"Oh, thank you. I'm full. Let's go back after paying the bill." Zhang Heng put down the knife and fork in his hand and wiped his mouth.

Don’t take the two medicines mentioned in this chapter casually. Even over-the-counter melatonin is not as free of side effects as advertised. Especially if you take it often, you may become dependent. If you really have insomnia, remember to go to a tertiary hospital. I'm going to see a doctor. Good night everyone. (??ω??)??
