Lawrence, the housekeeper of the Samos family who came to China to try his luck, did not come alone, in addition to the entourage, he also brought a family member, the second son of the current head of the family, John Samos, Thomas Samos Jr.

Although the International Mental Health Symposium has almost the entire hotel, there are still some spare rooms that the Samos family happens to occupy.

Follow Lawrence Butler to 2608 on the 26th floor, which is a two-bedroom business suite.

Lawrence said to the maid who had just opened the door, "Beth, how is Thomas?"

When he was in close proximity to psychiatrists from all over the world at the entrance of the cafeteria on the second floor, there were two maids and two bodyguards in the suite, and an attendant and two bodyguards were resting and waiting.

"Master Thomas has just fallen asleep, you should be quiet. ”

The second half of Beth's sentence was said to Li Bai and the others, and the room was very quiet, and even a needle could be heard.

Lawrence Butler glanced into the master bedroom, then cautiously closed the door, turned his head and lowered his voice and said to Li Bai, Julian and Catherine: "I'm really sorry! Sleep is the most precious treasure of the Samos family, the three of you can wait for a while, but please don't talk loudly." ”

At the same time, he bowed down and made a gesture, leading the three of them to the balcony.

As soon as Li Bai sat down, Lawrence Butler asked in a low voice, "What do you want to drink?"

"Coffee!"

Li Bai chose coffee, he had just eaten lunch, the blood flowed to the stomach, and he was easily sleepy, just to refresh himself.

"Black Tea"

Julian is like a traditional Englishman, with black tea after a meal, or afternoon tea.

"Green tea, thank you!"

Catherine, a little fan of oriental culture, can't wait to integrate into China after eating in Donglaishun hot pot last night, and green tea is a must.

The two foreign devils drank tea, and the serious Chinese drank coffee instead, and the trio came to a reverse string.

For fear that Li Bai would misunderstand the visitor, but the host was asleep, and after serving tea and coffee, Lawrence Butler apologized to Li Bai and said: "Mr. Li Bai, please don't get me wrong, the complete sleep time of the Samos family usually does not exceed half an hour, and Master Thomas will wake up soon." ”

"Okay, that's okay!"

Li Bai was stunned, but he didn't expect that the hereditary psychosis in this family would actually affect the duration of sleep.

People can go three days without eating and drinking water, but if they don't sleep for three days, this will torture people, and even there are punishments that make people not allowed to sleep, and the iron-beaten man can't hold it, no wonder the other party will say that sleep is the most precious treasure, and if you can sleep for one more minute, it is naturally good.

Only about a quarter of an hour had passed, and I heard a sudden exclamation from inside the master bedroom.

Li Bai followed Julian and Catherine's gaze to the closed door of the master bedroom, and saw Lawrence's butler waiting at the door gently pushing the door in, not only him, but also the maid and bodyguard looked calm, as if they had long been accustomed to it.

Voices soon came from inside.

"Master Thomas, Dr. Julian and Dr. Catherine of the Presbyterian Hospital of New York, and a doctor from Huaxia have come to visit. ”

"How long have they been waiting, please let them in. ”

"Yes, my young master. ”

Lawrence Butler walked out of the bedroom, bowed, and said to the three people who stood up, "Master Thomas has been invited, please come in!"

Li Bai followed Julian and Catherine to the master bedroom, and saw a thin young man getting out of bed, wearing a black silk nightgown, with a silver cross hanging on his chest, and the whole person looked listless, pale, and even a little swollen.

"Julian, Catherine, thank you so much for coming to see me! Is there any new development in the 'curse' against our family at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital now?"

The little Thomas Samos, who had a pair of dark circles under his eyes, moved his gaze to Li Bai again, and said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, the Samos family has been plagued by the 'curse' and has to cherish every bit of sleep time, welcome, Doctor Huaxia, what should I call it." ”

Although defined as hereditary psychosis by the medical community in Europe and the United States, the Samos family prefers to call it a curse, a lingering nightmare.

Generations of family members have some resentment of the ancestor who married the woman of the Dracula family, the ancestor is happy, but the descendants have suffered a great sin, to this day, none of the family members can live past the age of fifty, just crossing the hurdle of forty years old, it is already thankful.

As a regular visitor to Presbyterian Hospital in New York, Julian said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, Mr. Thomas, there is no new development at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, this time we just brought a new friend over to see how you are doing." ”

When little Thomas heard Julian's words, he immediately had a disappointment on his face, and he thought that as long as there was progress, even a little bit.

"Li Bai! You can call me Li Bai! So you don't have to worry about the difference between the surnames of the East and the West. ”

Li Bai stretched out his hand and shook it with the other party, it was cold and damp, and it was said that Yuanyang was depleted in traditional Chinese medicine, but the person in front of him obviously did not hollow out his body because of the color of wine, but it was an indisputable fact that his physique was weak.

"Okay, Mr. Li Bai, I really hope you can help me, God! The Samos family has been 'cursed' for five hundred years, when will it be the end. ”

Little Thomas's eyes were slightly red, God had given the Samos family wealth, but he also gave a curse.

"Mr. Thomas, you seem to be injured a lot?"

Li Bai looked at each other a little strangely, mostly concentrated on the head, and there were many skin colors that were not normal, with spotted melanin deposits, which was just the opposite of vitiligo, and there were also a lot of bruises.

Little Thomas said with some embarrassment, "I'm sorry! We Samos family members have difficulty falling asleep on their own, and need assistance to fall asleep." ”

Sleep aid?

Li Bai didn't understand what he meant, but Julian took the initiative to explain to him: "It is to help him fall asleep through blows, electric shocks, etc." ”

"Hit?"

Li Bai's eyes widened, and the glazed heart shrouded the other party's whole body, and found many traces of soft tissue contusions, most of which were concentrated in the head, and a small amount was also distributed in other parts of the body.

Those who don't know think they're beaten every day!

In fact, his speculation is infinitely closer to the truth.

"Actually, it can't be called sleep, it should be called a coma. ”

Catherine looked at little Thomas with great sympathy, and was beaten until she lost consciousness to fall asleep, what a wretched fellow.

Coma is the most basic self-protection mechanism of the human body, and the Samos family has paid a lot of price and endured inhuman torture in order to get precious sleep.

Although it was very helpless, I have to admit that what Dr. Catherine said was indeed true. ”

Little Thomas smiled wryly and spread his hands.

Assisted sleep is more like forced sleep, and he needs to receive assisted sleep at least ten times a day, otherwise his spirit is likely to collapse.

"Can you tell us more about your condition?"

Li Bai went straight to the point.

"I'd love to sit down in the living room and talk!"

Little Thomas led Li Bai and the three back to the living room.

As soon as he sat down, the maid brought coffee and a small bottle of medicine to little Thomas.

"Doctor Li Bai, the Samos family because of the Dracula family's bloodline caused the 'curse', what is the truth five hundred years ago, now it is impossible to verify, but our family has been troubled by it for life, both men and women, since the age of 14, the 'curse' has been gradually triggered, and the normal sleep time has begun to get shorter and shorter, followed by all kinds of terrible nightmares and hallucinations......" Little Thomas clenched the silver cross on his chest tightly, and said with a solemn expression: " Not only me, but the entire Samos family is the most devout Christian, but the devout faith is still unable to resist the invasion of these evil thoughts, and the family has been trying to find a way to lift the 'curse', but unfortunately in vain. ”

In a sense, the Samos family is now left to fate, but they have not completely given up, and have invested heavily in the human genome testing project, hoping to find out the hidden secrets in the human genetic sequence, and completely solve the "curse" shadow that has shrouded the family for more than 500 years.

To unlock all the secrets of human genes, I am afraid it will take at least a hundred years and invest countless money, manpower and material resources.

"It's a stubborn genetic disease!"

Li Bai lifted his chin and exchanged glances with Julian and Catherine, and knew that he had really made himself right, a tenacious genetic disease as tenacious as a corgi.

Little Thomas, who had suffered from the "curse", cautiously asked tentatively: "May I ask if there is a way on the Huaxia side? The Samos family's remuneration will definitely satisfy you." ”

"It's not about the money, well, let me try it first!"

Li Bai stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers in front of the other party's eyes.

Syllable!

Julian and Catherine's eyes immediately widened, staring at Li Bai, as peers, the two knew very well what this snap of their fingers meant.

Instantaneous hypnosis was able to use a snap of the finger as a suggestive medium, and few of them had ever seen such an ability.

"Huh, what's wrong?"

Little Thomas's gaze was misty, and then he regained his clarity.

The invincible hypnotism of the big devil is extremely rare and unsuccessful, in other words, this snap of his fingers can at least instantly bring down more than a dozen men.

"Hypnosis, didn't work!"

Li Bai shook his head, and then said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Thomas, I'm going to be rude. ”

"Please!"

Thomas Jr. shrugged his shoulders, accustomed to it.

Hypnotism has been used on people of the Samos family in the past, but it has had no effect at all.

Li Bai stretched out his index finger and tapped it lightly on the top of little Thomas's head.

This time, little Thomas rolled his eyes, and the whole person leaned forward softly, and before he could hit the low table in front of him, he was held up by Li Bai and pushed back to the seat.

"Success?"

Lawrence's eyes widened suddenly, and his voice trembled.
