Chapter 2 Psychiatrist

You must make a quick decision when doing anything, otherwise the opportunity will flash and you will never be able to achieve your goal again.

Now Xiao Xia has deeply understood this truth.

She should have asked the director to replace the case as soon as she returned to the office yesterday, but she didn't. As a result, early this morning, when she learned that the director was on a business trip due to an urgent matter, she knew that she had to continue to force herself. In this place, no one dared to arrange tasks on his own without the director nodding, and no one dared to disturb him when he was doing business.

Unless she resigns! But she will never find a good job again, and she cannot repay Director Pan's kindness in this way.

She was in a state of unresolved emotion, and she had nightmares last night and didn't know what to do. In the past, she would go to her free psychologist to relieve the problem. So, she used her lunch break to knock on the door of his office directly.

Wanli, a thirty-one-year-old man, a doctor in the 14th floor psychological clinic, has a tall and shrewd appearance, but has a pair of eyes that are as kind as a deer, which can make people involuntarily trust. And because she helped him win his divorce lawsuit, because they worked in the same building, and because of the warm and safe atmosphere on him, they became friends.

"Is there another ghost pressing on the bed?" He asked when she saw her eyes scattered.

"Psychologists sometimes hate it. If they had known that they wouldn't tell you anything before, wouldn't you pretend to know nothing?"

"It seems that I'm right, it's a ghost to press the bed." Wanli deliberately teased her, "But it's time to rest now, and I'm not your psychologist."

"Your face says you are my friend, a part-time 'free' psychologist."

"Oh? What else is it written?"

"It says that Yue Xiaoxia can do whatever she wants."

"So that's the case - OK! I'll treat you to lunch. I opened a ramen shop around the corner of the street downstairs. It's cheap and authentic. Let's go!"

He knew her, but in fact his job was to understand other people's psychology. For Xiaoxia, he had a layer of love among friends in addition to understanding. He knew that she was easy to relax in a crowded place, which would greatly restore her lively nature and help her psychological adjustment. Recently, she was under too much pressure, especially after taking over the murder that caused a sensation in the city. He wanted to help her.

"What should I do? I've been seriously sleeping lately and I've had wrinkles." They found a corner in the noisy ramen restaurant and sat down, eating and chatting.

"Don't worry too much. According to statistics, about 40% of people have sleep disorders. The saying "ghost pressing on the bed" is just one of them." Wanli comforted Xiaoxia. In fact, he had some irrational doubts about her condition, but he didn't want to scare her until it was confirmed.

"Do you need to check your heart?" Xiao Xia was so spicy that she burst into tears.

"According to scientific explanation, the phenomenon of ghost bed pressing is caused by blood circulation problems caused by poor sleeping posture. Regular body checking is a good habit, but - aren't you bothering him again, right?"

"Yes." Xiao Xia nodded, "I didn't mean it, but whenever I was in a critical moment, I would rush out the Buddha's name."

"So I said long ago that you are very brave and have a light horoscope, and you are prone to encounter evil and filth. However, after being forced to do something urgent, you are very brave and have a fate with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. You will always turn bad luck into good fortune and bring good fortune to good fortune." Wanli smiled relaxedly, not wanting to convey any bad psychological hints to Xiaoxia. In fact, he was very worried. According to his past experience, Xiaoxia frequently had nightmares such as ghosts pressing on the bed, and it would happen a bit dangerous. Although she herself was unaware of it, it seemed that something was finally resolved for her every time. But will the situation be resolved safely as before? Is this related to that case?

"Depending on what you said? You are a socialist medical worker, not a Feng Shui master who asked the gods. Comrade, pay attention to your position!"

"After 80% of the greatest scientists in the world believe in the existence of God, it can be seen that scientific exploration and spiritual belief have nothing to do with it. I like logical things, but I don't reject irrational phenomena."

"The speech was so good, but do you really believe there are ghosts?" Xiao Xia asked calmly, not worried that anyone in the noisy crowd would notice this corner.

"Ghost? Is this related to your case?" Wanli frowned, "or are you guessing randomly?"

Xiao Xia hesitated for a moment.

"I shouldn't have disclosed the case to irrelevant people, but you are my psychologist, so it shouldn't matter." She found an excuse for herself, and then told Wanli what happened yesterday and her feelings in full.

"Since you don't like taking over this case, why force yourself? This is unfair to you and your parties, why not ask others to do it?" Wanli suggested. He believed what Xiaoxia said, but he also knew that she was quite sensitive, so she could not rule out her inaccurate judgment, so the best way was to find someone with a strong nerve to handle this bloody case. He believed that it would not be difficult, after all, this case was too sensational. Although it had no economic benefits, it had a great reputation. In fact, he had accidentally heard other people from Changkong Law Firm talking about this case. Those people thought that handling this case was not a bad thing at all, because there would be a high exposure rate regardless of winning or losing. The director was too biased to give this case to Xiaoxia.

"I wanted to tell the director about this morning, but he actually went on a business trip. I was really unlucky! And it was difficult to speak like this, and I felt that it was disappointing Teacher Pan. Don't I know that he should cultivate me carefully? I'm still so ignorant!" Xiao Xia held the bowl of soup with no image, "I talked to you just because I was in a conflict, otherwise I'd told the director now, and I would feel that I had made a mistake again - the choice itself is regrettable."

"It is a common psychological phenomenon that you always feel that choosing another one may be better, and you don't have to blame yourself."

"So what should I do? Should I stick with it or give up as soon as possible?"

"This is not a question of giving up and persistence, it is whether you want to continue doing it yourself. If you force yourself, you will do worse. It's not that your director is not coming back-" Wanli said completely from a friend's standpoint.

"But the court is about to begin!" Xiao Xia said, "Actually, I tend to give up. It's very unpromising, right? But I'm really afraid of meeting next time. And I can't do nothing. This is irresponsibility to Li Jingming and disgrace to the director."

Wanli patted Xiaoxia's hand comfortably. "Why do you still need to meet?"

"Because he actually said nothing that day, how do I defend this? I have to listen to his description of that matter and want to know what kind of legal relief he really hopes to get! In fact, I think that after entering the litigation process, I should apply for a re-evaluation of his mental problems."

"I have read related reports in the newspaper. It is said that he is thought to have psychological problems, but he has not reached the level of mental illness. Maybe his performance yesterday was just a disguise, wanting you to save him and let him escape punishment?"

Xiao Xia shook her head without hesitation.

Yesterday she felt so profound that she ruled out all the possibility of disguise. She rolled up the sleeves covering her wrists, revealing the bruises on her white wrists. "Look, he grabbed them yesterday. With his physical strength, unless there is evil spirit, I will be injured so much? Besides, as long as he is still a human being, how can he be so cruel? And to his family?"

"Human heart is the most complex and difficult thing in the world." Wanli caressed the scars on Xiaoxia's wrist, and felt that their director's exercise method for Xiaoxia was a bit like killing a chicken to get an egg. "If the heart is sick, it is more troublesome than anything else."

"So from your expert's perspective, how likely is he to pretend or be mentally ill?"

"I am just a psychiatrist! I can only solve general mental illnesses. But from a medical point of view, mental illness does not mean mental illness. What we usually call "psychiatric illness", which is a "severe" mental illness such as schizophrenia or paranoidness. Judicial psychiatric identification is a specialized science, and the clinical manifestations are particularly complicated. Do you think it's enough to be an individual?"

"Of course I know not everyone can do it. I just want to know how to prove whether he is sick!"

"This is a very complicated and difficult thing. For example, through conversation, he will observe his willful behavior, cognitive activities, emotional activities, and even physical functions, find out whether he has a medical history or family inheritance, and comprehensively judge the words he wrote, various manifestations during his internment, so that he can finally draw a relatively correct conclusion. There is also a medical situation called "intention control disorder", which means that he has the ability to identify but control behavior, which is the "impulsive behavior" in severe mania and schizophrenia. In this case, he must be more cautious and must meet the relevant medical standards."

"Is that so? Then I need to study it carefully."

"Hey, aren't you going to quit?" He had to remind this forgetful person.

"I want to withdraw. However, I can't do nothing before the director comes back. At least I want to give the person I take over."

"I didn't expect you to be really kind."

"This is not a question of kindness or not. I still have to make a living in the 'climbing sky', so how can I be a human being without having a tail between my tail?" Xiao Xia replied, but immediately thought about the case. "Apart from having excessive behavior in the early days of being detained, he almost acquiesced to his crimes. He is a highly educated person and will not be unaware of the consequences, but he has not made any excuses. But why did he suddenly become so excited yesterday? He still shouted for me to help him? This doesn't make sense! Unless he is really sick, or there is really a ghost."

When Xiaoxia said the last word, she unconsciously shivered. Wanli saw her strangeness and reached out to pat her forehead, allowing her to walk out of her memories.

She was too easily accepting psychological hints, which was her biggest psychological weakness.

She was still suspicious of the sayings of ghosts and gods, but he had a unique experience and knew that there were all kinds of strange things in this world, and there were idealistic things that science could not explain, so in order to protect her, he must think of a solution. He knew that this matter was not something he could solve, but he could find someone to solve it. After hesitating for a long time, he finally made up his mind.

Only that person can help Xiaoxia!

Although he was a little sorry for his years of friendship, he could not let Xiao Xia fall deeper and deeper in this vortex without paying attention. He lowered his head and wrote down the person he decided to ask for help on a piece of paper, and handed it to Xiao Xia.

"What is this? Ruan Zhan - Ye Guiren Bar - Address -" Xiao Xia raised her head in confusion, "Wanli, what do you mean? When is it now? You still want to introduce my boyfriend to me! How is he like to you? I don't want to be worse than you."

"A friend, how could I introduce him to harm you if he is not easy to deal with? As long as you are careful not to fall in love with him."

"cut!"

"Don't be busy venting your nostrils!"

"Then why did you introduce him to me? Does he have legal disputes and ask me to help? Let me first agree that I can help with consulting issues, but if you want to sue, please contact the institute. You know, our lawyer discipline regulations do not allow private cases."

"Can't you listen to me finish?" Wanli was amused by Xiaoxia's impatient temper, but this was one of the reasons why he liked her. She was quite different from the so-called elite white-collar workers in this high-end building, and had a strong 'human' flavor.

"He has no trouble. He opened this bar. I introduced him to you because I want you to find him."

"That means he is very handsome?"

"That means he can communicate with others!"

"Psychic?" Xiaoxia didn't expect that he would say this, "Really, false? Or did I hear it wrong? You weren't kidding?"

"You heard it right, I wasn't kidding." Wanli stopped Xiaoxia from touching his forehead, "I didn't have a fever, either. Be careful! Your scarf fell into the soup bowl."

"Then why did you suddenly say this? Don't you hate those warlocks the most? In the past, I used to watch movies of this type with you, or watch a fortune-telling thing at the entrance of the temple, weren't you ridiculed for being ridiculed?"

"I laughed because I knew what a real Onmyoji was like."

"real?"

"Really true!"

"No lie?"

"I'm in the name of my ex-wife - OK OK, I'm guaranteed with my academic reputation."

"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"He is particularly afraid of trouble. I am afraid that you will pester others to tell fortunes and divination. And -" Wanli changed his serious expression, "His ability is a secret. If this case wasn't really weird and you are my friend, I wouldn't have revealed him. If there is really a ghost, ask him for help, although he may not help - Xiaoxia, can I trust you?"

"It's totally OK." Xiaoxia promised.
