The boy in the video is weird, gloomy, and hysterical.
Che Linwan couldn't help but asked, "Who is this..."
Tang Zu's expression looked as if he had expected it, "Look carefully."
Che Linwan glanced at Su Zhenling again and found that Dr. Su was indeed looking very carefully.
He said slowly, "This person is definitely Xia Mingzhi. But if he has a twin brother, I will think he is another person."
He has exaggerated blue-gray hair, sharp earrings, and manic eyes.
Su Zhenling's eyes turned to Che Linwan, "He has a sister?"
Che Linwan organized the story he had heard in fragments and told it to him.
But the light in Tang Zu's eyes foreshadowed for them that this was not the case.
There were more mosquitoes on the terrace, so the waiter brought a blue mosquito repellent lamp.
It was placed exactly at Tang Zu's feet, reflecting half of his face with blue light.
"This person is the real Xia Mingzhi. Xia Mingzhi before he was hypnotized."
"Hypnosis? Why hypnotize him?"
"Because he almost killed his sister with his own hands."
Che Linwan remembered that everyone told her that Xia Mingzhi and Xia Xiyuan had a very good relationship.
But what Tang Zu said in front of him had a slightly different taste.
He said, "When Xiyuan was young, she admired her brother very much."
After taking a sip of Heifang, it changed again, "Xiyuan was obsessed with her brother when she was young."
"Brother and sister love?!"
"To be precise, it's Xiyuan's unrequited love."
The details Tang Zu later told became increasingly bizarre and unconvincing.
Xiyuan likes her brother Mingzhi, but Mingzhi happens to be at a playful and arrogant age. In order to test his sister's obedience to her, he asked several of his playing partners to rape his sister. Eventually leading to Xiyuan's suicide.
Xiyuan committed suicide at home, in the bathroom on the second floor. After Xia Mingzhi got up, she was still drunk and confused and walked into the bathroom. After using the bathroom, she returned to the bed and continued to sleep.
Then I kept having nightmares.
Tang Zu took a sip of wine, and his tone became heavy, whether because of the bitterness of the wine or the mental haze.
"That day I went to see him, Ming Zhi. The nanny came to the door. Both brother and sister had bad tempers, so the nanny usually didn't go to the second floor. I went into the room to talk to Xiao Zhi, dragged him up, and dragged him into the bathroom. Wash your face. Suddenly I saw..."
Su Zhenling interrupted him, "You said before that he had gone to the bathroom?"
"Yes. Because when his mother asked him later, he said that he didn't see Xiyuan when he entered the bathroom for the first time. In fact, according to the doctor's estimation, she was already in there. There was a lot of blood. He almost couldn't be rescued. He I was so scared that I almost ran out of the door, so I went downstairs to drive the nanny away, and then called his parents.”
Che Linwan sighed, "Fortunately, I was rescued."
There was something wrong with Tang Zu's tone, "It would have been better not to have rescued him at that time."
Noticing that Su Zhenling and Che Linwan looked at him in an unfriendly way, he explained mockingly, "You didn't see it. I know how many things happened in their family after they were rescued. It was the focus of their family's debate at that time. , it would be better if this daughter died."
Che Linwan and Su Zhenling looked at each other.
"But the Xia Mingzhi we see now doesn't look like the same person as the Xia Mingzhi on your screen?"
Tang Zu nodded to Su Zhenling, "At that time, he was on the eve of his graduation trip. So his parents sent him abroad for treatment."
"Treatment? The person who needs treatment is Xia Xiyuan, right?"
Tang Zu shook his head, "No. Xiyuan is a girl. Moreover, Xiyuan has been weak since she was a child and has always listened to her parents and elder brother. Her mother has long said that such a girl will have no future. The most she can do is marry into another family. It's not much use to get married."
Che Linwan's expression changed instantly after hearing this.
Tang Zu continued, "They sent Xiaozhi abroad. But the shadow caused by this incident was too deep. So his whole mood collapsed. Finally, the psychologist came up with an illusion. Reshaping his personality."
Che Linwan slapped the table, "What did you say!"
"The Xia Mingzhi you see now is actually not the original Xia Mingzhi. It is a work after personality reconstruction. To be precise, this personality refers to many virtual personalities, and is combined with part of the original personality. In order not to let the original personality and reshape the personality completely.”
Su Zhenling thought thoughtfully, "It must be the violence factor."
Tang Zu nodded.
Che Linwan then asked, "What about his memory of Xiyuan?"
"Reconstructed memories. The relationship between the brother and sister was not bad before. Xia Xiyuan has a good relationship with everyone. No one would particularly hate a little girl who listens to him. So the psychologist assumed that the brother and sister The virtual memory of mutual support and friendship. And he did not let him participate in the harm done to his sister, but chose to accept it with hindsight. "
Su Zhenling added, "But you need a perpetrator?"
Tang Zu nodded, "And the perpetrator is someone in his life who has no way to retaliate. I did hurt Xiyuan when I was young, but not in that way. I just saw that she was honest and could be bullied, so I often bullied her. Parents see For his parents' sake, I agreed. And I didn't like me very much since I was a child, maybe because I don't tolerate him being above me, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't pay attention to me anymore. "
Che Linwan swallowed, his hands and feet were cold.
She didn't get rid of the chill on her back until she got home, hid under the blanket, and took out the warm baby she had stored in the winter.
The boy she liked turned out to have never been a real person!
It is a virtual personality.
The original Xia Mingzhi was sealed in his memory by a psychologist and his parents.
The personality derived from hypnosis gradually replaced the original personality and lived in this world.
The reshaped personality is perfecting its existence step by step, trying to completely replace the original personality.
However, due to constant pressure, the primitive personality tried to take advantage of the situation and gradually reared its head.
If it were the original Xia Mingzhi, that devil-like boy, he would be someone she would never like in her life. Even if she met someone in the middle of the road, she would quietly avoid him.
However, after a perfect disguise, he entered her life and took away the feelings that she carefully protected.
She is like a cicada hiding in a cocoon, self-sufficient and free, living a beautiful life.
But he insisted on breaking out of the cocoon and squeezed in one leg.
She couldn't help but feel resentful, if only he hadn't squeezed into her life so thanklessly from the beginning and destroyed the cicada pupa.
After learning the truth, she could leave as if nothing had happened.
But now... it's impossible.
The painful person was Xia Mingzhi, the Xia Mingzhi she knew.
That demonic person is Xia Mingzhi, a Xia Mingzhi she doesn't recognize.
Regardless of emotion or reason, she would like to leave behind a virtual personality.
But even those who have never been exposed to psychology will know that false things cannot last forever.
The wall will eventually be broken.
What she fears is if the reshaped virtual personality disappears.
Will the real Xia Mingzhi dominate the body
What is the experience of the original personality that has been suppressed for so long
Will he rebound with revenge and completely destroy Xia Mingzhi
"I want to talk to him?" Che Linwan asked Su Zhenling for his opinion.
Su Zhenling immediately objected to her, "Absolutely not. The reshaped personality is very fragile. Once you realize that your existence is questioned and the original personality rears its ugly head, it will probably collapse."
"But it's too hard for him to go through it alone... "
"Let's just trust the psychologist's professional ability. If we have done a good job in preventing collapse in the early stage, we should be able to survive on our own strength."
"Do two personalities exist at the same time?"
Su Zhenling sighed and said nothing. It's hard to say whether the Xia Mingzhi that they reshaped or the original Xia Mingzhi will survive in the end.
"That psychologist..."
Su Zhenling heard that Che Linwan was just making unnecessary plans, "For professional protection, the psychologist doing the reconstruction won't tell us. Don't bother asking that rogue rich guy for clues."
Che Linwan was silently thinking that she had other ways, Bai Shoudao said.
But obviously the Xia Mingzhi that Bai Shoudao knew was the same person that she knew. She considered that Xia Mingzhi might not want to be known.
And the fewer people who actually know about this, the better.
Once more people who understand the original personality appear around him, it will be destructive to the reshaped personality.
After not sleeping all night, Che Linwan walked to the window sill and opened the curtains and saw Xia Mingzhi standing alone in the garden in the distance.
He slammed the curtains shut, very frightened.
How to face a familiar face, an unfamiliar personality, and a personality full of unknown dangers
She took a deep breath, opened the door and walked out.
