Are there demons in the world

What kind of demon? A figurative demon? Or a religious demon

Gu Jun knows how he understands, which is part of the evaluation, because personality theory believes that the questionnaire method can reflect the conscious and self-attributed motivational system of the person receiving the evaluation. What he thinks after listening to the question determines how he answers, which will just reflect his personality characteristics.

But now he thinks of demons with a religious meaning... This made him stop slightly, there are demons that are incomprehensible with current scientific knowledge, are there any

A few months ago he would have said no, but now, around the fifth second, he says, "Yes."

As soon as Gu Jun answered, the three reviewers continued to write on the document. He doesn't know what the standard answer to the question is. Generally speaking, if the answer matches the standard, 2 points are awarded, otherwise, 0 points, and between the two, 1 point.

The man with the square face on the left asked again: "Do you want to go to heaven after you die?"

"Yes."

"Does it upset you that a stray dog fell into the ocean and drowned?"

"Yes."

"The death of a stranger makes you sadder than the death of a dog?"

This is a really weird question, with different answers depending on the situation. Gu Jun thought for a moment, if that person is a murderer, is that dog his good partner? Why do you think so in the first place, instead of good people and evil dogs? Think dogs are more likely to be good than people

Is this my psychological tendency... Gu Jun can only answer: "Somewhere in between."

"Do you like passion?"

"Something in between."

"Do you think madmen are disgusting?"

"Yes and no, in between."

No matter how Gu Jun answered, whether he frowned or blurted out, the three judges remained expressionless, and the tone of the man with the square face remained unchanged.

"As a doctor, will you save a bad guy's life?"

Gu Jun came to a standstill again. This is a moral problem, and the standard answer is to save people, because saving people is done by doctors, and judging people's quality is done by judges. But the reality is not always so simple, there will be situations that he doesn't want to save. Gu Jun said: "It's in between."

"Do you think the past is real?"

Another strange question, Gu Jun thought of a lot, even thought of the double slit experiment of quantum mechanics, "somewhere in between."

"Is knowledge the greatest power?"

Gu Jun was silent for two seconds, "No."

"Do you desire power?"

"Yes."

"The meaning of life, the end of science, the truth of the universe, do you care?"

"Yes."

"Would you be desperate to get these answers?"

Gu Jun was silent again, desperate? What a weighty word, but if you can get the answer to everything... He replied: "In between." He can ignore himself, but he doesn't want to hurt others.

"Do you believe in family affection?"

"Yes."

"Do you believe in friendship?"

"Yes."

"Do you believe in love?"

Gu Jun stopped, love? This thing is more complicated. He thinks that all love is conditional, but is conditional love considered love? He replied, "Somewhere in between."

"Do you think there is a higher truth above human beings?"

Gu Jun paused, human beings are so insignificant, how could they have understood the highest truth, "Yes." He said.

"Can that kind of truth go beyond kinship, friendship, and love?"

I don't know when it started, but a dark cloud accumulated in Gu Jun's heart. He let out a soft breath, "It's in between."

The man with the square face made another scribble on the document.

Questions rang out in the review room one after another, and Gu Jun kept answering within 5 seconds. The more he answered, the more inertia of thinking emerged. Even he himself was aware of his own thinking mode, but he felt a little strange instead. It's not as clear-cut as I thought.

He also became more and more aware of this unusual personality test.

Ordinarily, the "Cattell 16 Personality Factors Questionnaire" measures 16 root traits such as gregariousness, intelligence, stability, doubt, and fantasy; the "Eysenck Personality Questionnaire" measures three personality traits dimensions and a validity scale; and the Minnesota Multiple Personality Inventory, etc…

But the scale test he is taking now seems to be measuring his understanding of human beings, aliens, matter, spirit, right and wrong, good and evil, right and wrong, etc., and then assessing his personality type. I don't know what kind of personality there is in the secret department.

This kind of question and answer lasted for more than half an hour, and Gu Jun answered maybe more than 300 questions.

"Do you think you're important?"

"Something in between."

When Gu Jun finished answering this question, the man with the square face nodded slightly: "It's ok, the questionnaire is over." However, the test did not end here, and the man with the square face said again: "Student Gu, I will say a word next. , you have to use this word to quickly speak a sentence within 2 seconds."

Gu Jun nodded, yes, this is the part of the projective test, which reflects the characteristic pattern of the subconscious mind.

"That's the beginning." The man with the square face said, "Great."

"This is a great work." Gu Jun said it, and then he realized that he didn't say a great person, but a "work"...

"Indescribable." The man said again.

Gu Jun thought for a while, "That woman is indescribably beautiful." Does this reflect his subconscious sexual impulse? No, he thought about it, it was conscious.

The man with the square face obviously noticed it too. 2 seconds is a very short time, shorter than the 3 seconds used in the general word association test. Few people can answer after conscious thinking, even if this thinking is involuntary. And answering with the consciousness, the subconscious cannot be tested.

"Student Gu, please answer within 1 second after listening to the question." The man with a square face had no choice but to ask.

The deeply wrinkled man in the middle and the long-faced woman on the right looked at each other. This was the first time Gu Jun saw them have such rich expressions.

What they want is the subconscious, the subconscious.

Gu Jun silently said to himself: Don't be so rigid, otherwise how will they treat the previous review

"Death." The man with a square face said.

"To be or not to be, that's a question." Gu Jun blurted out, but badly... still consciousness, and was distracted by Cai Zixuan's Shakespeare.

The man with the square face did not write down the record again, but picked up a stack of white paper and a ballpoint pen, got up and handed it to him, "Student Gu, let's do drawing. Then I will play some pictures on the screen, You have to keep looking at the screen and say what you see in the picture, keep drawing with your hands, don’t think, don’t stop.”

"Okay." Gu Jun took the paper and pen, knowing that even if what he drew was just a mess of coils, in the eyes of a psychologist, he could still analyze his subconscious activities. He had no doubts about the capabilities of this secret department in this regard.

He took a deep breath, and watched the man with the square face press the remote control, and the TV screen on the wall over there lit up again.

The first image is a dark sky with clouds everywhere.

"Sky, dark clouds." Gu Jun said while looking at the screen, while drawing lines randomly on the paper. Because the conscious attention was all directed to the behavior of describing the picture, the constantly swiping right hand was immediately controlled by the subconscious mind.

The pictures on the screen continued, the guillotine with bloodstains; corpses piled up in pieces; the blue sea; close-ups of flies; the little girl by the wall in the black and white photo...

He kept describing the changing pictures, kept drawing, and didn't know what he was drawing. He didn't have the slightest idea at all, but his heart was a little restless.

Gradually, the man with a square face looked at the paper in Gu Jun's hand, but frowned slightly. Both the deeply wrinkled man and the long-faced woman stood up, looking.

"Student Gu, it's okay, stop."

The screen in front of him suddenly lost the image and became pitch black. Gu Jun came to his senses, "Oh..." After swiping for a while, his right hand felt very tired, and he noticed that the expression of the man with the square face had changed... Gu Jun's heart sank, what did I draw

He looked at the drawing paper in his hand, but saw a line of crazy handwriting drawn by a blue ballpoint pen on the paper, and these handwriting formed the words of that foreign language.

A line of foreign language that he can understand.

Cold, weird, twisted.
