Mystery Hunter

Chapter 138: psychiatric patient

The place where Jiang He was going was the Longcheng Mental Hospital, and Song Xiangmei had already been locked in at this moment.

Persecution paranoia, as the name implies, is the patient's belief that they will be persecuted, including suspicion of cheating, stalking, murder, poisoning, etc. The patient always suspects that the people around her have bad intentions towards her, and they are on guard everywhere, which seriously affects their normal life. In the most extreme cases, in order to prevent others from "murdering" themselves, these patients will kill others by force. .

This is a kind of mental illness that can be alleviated but difficult to cure. Antipsychotic drugs will cause greater side effects to patients, and psychotherapy is a treatment method with a very long time span, unless the patient’s mind suddenly turns around one day. There may be a possibility of recovery.

It was like Jiang He's hyper-amnesia, he might not get better in his entire life, or he might suddenly return to normal at a certain moment. However, the root cause of persecution delusional disorder can still be found, and psychological counseling is also a good way to start. However, no one knows what is the root cause of this kind of hyper-amnesia, which is one in a billion, and how to treat it.

"Mental hospital." Jiang He said to the taxi driver.

Jiang He noticed that the taxi driver had been watching him during the driving interval, so he asked, "What?"

After hesitating for a long time, the driver said, "Are you going to a mental hospital for treatment?"

I can't blame the driver for this, because Jiang He's appearance is not like a normal person. Jiang He's clothes were wrinkled and had a faint sour smell after not washing them for a few days. His hair is messy, and there are more and less places, like a messy bird's nest. There were bloodstains all over his body and arms, which made people look very uncomfortable.

It's hard for people not to think that Jiang He is a mental patient, but Jiang He doesn't care about the driver's vision. He rarely wastes his time on taking care of his appearance. Jiang He thinks it is a waste of time.

"No, I'm going to see a mental patient." Jiang He replied.

It wasn't until Jiang He handed the money to the driver at the location that the driver was obviously relieved and left immediately.

When Jiang He arrived at the designated location, he saw a man and a woman waiting there. Both of them are in their fifties, and the skin color is darker than the other. It seems that they often bask in the sun. Both of them look very vicissitudes of life.

"You are Song Xiangmei's parents?" Jiang He asked.

Song Xiangmei's parents were obviously taken aback when they saw Jiang He's appearance, but it took a moment for Song Xiangmei's mother to react: "You are Police Officer Jiang, right? It's really bothering you to see that you came just after getting up."

Jiang He didn't have these false courtesy. He asked directly, "Song Xiangmei was fine a few days ago, why did she suddenly go crazy. There must be a qualitative change in this process, that is, there is an opportunity."

"It just started a few days ago." Song Xiangmei's mother told Jiang He as she dragged Jiang He into the corridor, "We came back from the south a week ago, and my sister said that Xiangmei had found her. The old couple of us almost fainted with joy, you know, it's been ten years, we've been looking for Xiangmei for ten years, and we haven't been able to find it yet, but suddenly, she appeared by our side."

Jiang He nodded.

Song Xiangmei's mother continued: "Ten years have passed, and Xiangmei has changed. She has lost too much weight, and her body is full of scars. When I gave her a bath, I felt distressed to death. Her clothes were dirty, We just thought about taking her to the mall to buy some clothes and taking her out to eat something delicious."

Having said this, Song Xiangmei's mother's eyes were full of tears, she fought back her tears and said, "When I bathed her, she kept saying that she wanted to eat ice cream, and she wanted to eat something she had never eaten in ten years. That's my heart! You can't imagine how uncomfortable it is to be a mother to hear your daughter say that!"

"That day." Song Xiangmei's mother wiped the tears from her face: "I took her to the mall with her father. It was the best day for us, the best day in ten years. Her father bought her for her. I bought a lot of delicious food, and I took her to buy nice clothes. It seems like ten years ago, when she just graduated from high school, our family of three looked like a shopping mall. "

Song Xiangmei's smile turned into a wry smile: "But it happened at this moment. At that time, I took Xiangmei to buy clothes, and Xiangmei suddenly saw the ice cream shop downstairs from upstairs. Just let her father buy it. And I picked a good dress for Xiangmei, but the item number was gone, so I followed the clerk to the back to find it. "

"It won't take a few minutes, but how could I have thought such a thing would happen!" Song Xiangmei's mother regretted: "I just left Xiangmei for a few minutes, and I saw that she had been watching her father go downstairs. When I bought ice cream, I didn't call her, just followed the clerk to the back."

"But within a minute of entering, I heard Xiangmei shouting." Song Xiangmei's mother patted her forehead several times: "I heard my daughter's voice, so I hurried out. I just walked out of the warehouse. , I saw my daughter yelling at the door of the store."

"Those surrounding guests didn't know what happened to Xiangmei, so someone came up to ask, but as soon as those people approached Xiangmei, Xiangmei ran out like crazy, knocking over many store shelves. When others touch her, she goes mad when others touch her. In the end, the security guards in several buildings stopped her and tried to call the police."

"At this time, something was wrong with Xiangmei. She said that these people were traffickers, and she said that these people were sent by He Caijie to kill her. We hurried up to make a theory, but the security guards insisted on calling the police. Xiangmei broke free from the traffickers, but she We don't even know each other, no one can touch her, she sees everyone as a trafficker!"

Song Xiangmei's father has been silent all the time. At this time, he just added: "It's a sin, those traffickers don't give birth to children.

Jiang He noticed something was wrong with Song Xiangmei returning to the big city. When she came back, she saw that everyone was a trafficker and seemed to want to kidnap her. But Jiang He did not expect that Song Xiangmei would reach this point. The source of Song Xiangmei's mental illness came from her abduction experience. After ten years of nightmare life, Song Xiangmei never wanted to go back to such a village.

Such a powerful thought allowed Song Xiangmei to avoid all risks from outside, and she would not allow any outsider to touch her or even get close to her. Jiang He could imagine the scene. When Song Xiangmei found out that her mother had left, she instinctively felt that she was in an extremely dangerous environment, and that the person she could rely on to give her a sense of security had left.

In addition, there was a lot of people coming and going in the mall, which made Song Xiangmei completely collapsed.

"Now." Song Xiangmei's mother bowed her head in tears: "She doesn't even let us touch her, she always curls up in the corner, looking at everything like a trafficker, and seeing nothing wrong."

While talking, several people were already standing outside a ward.

Through the glass, she could just see Song Xiangmei curled up in the corner of the room, staring at a place motionless, she looked extremely frightened.

A doctor came over and said, "You can go in to visit, but don't irritate the patient, and don't get too close to her. She is not aggressive yet. If there is any problem, call us immediately."

Jiang He nodded, opened the door and walked in.

"Don't come, don't come! Don't, don't sell me, don't take me!"

Seeing Jiang He approaching, Song Xiangmei shouted frantically.

Jiang He had no choice but to stop and stand in place: "Song Xiangmei, I rescued you, don't you know me?"

Song Xiangmei looked at Jiang He and kept her eyes on Jiang He, but she didn't say anything. It seemed that Song Xiangmei had completely collapsed. When she was in the village, Song Xiangmei always wanted to go out, but when she did, Song Xiangmei was always on guard against being abducted and sold again. Ten years of hardships made Song Xiangmei strong and vulnerable.

She can be strong enough to be humiliated but still have the desire to escape, but also fragile enough to completely collapse without seeing her relatives for a minute.

"Don't you know me?" Jiang He said.

"Don't come here!" Song Xiangmei suddenly kowtowed vigorously: "I beg you, please don't sell me, no."

Jiang He sat on the ground: "I won't go there, and I won't sell you either."

"Hehe." Song Xiangmei began to smirk.

"Do you still remember what happened in the village?" Jiang He said, "Do you remember when I brought you back and rescued you?"

Song Xiangmei suddenly snorted, and she said, "I escaped, I remembered."

Song Xiangmei's parents outside the door were suddenly overjoyed.

Just listen to Song Xiangmei continue: "I remember, I remember that night, He Caiwei came to save me, she killed that person, and then dragged me to run and run. We ran across the village, we ran After passing the cornfield. But those people keep chasing and chasing, they keep chasing, I'm so scared, I don't want to be caught, I don't want to go back!"

Suddenly, Song Xiangmei's voice became hoarse: "I can't be caught, I don't want to go back, I don't want to go back again! We can't get past those villagers, but as long as I can get past He Caiwei, as long as I get past her, I'll be fine. I can escape. I stole He Caiwei's machete, I used all my strength, and I cut off her head with one knife!"

"Haha!" Song Xiangmei let out a sharp cry: "They never chased after me again, I ran away, I escaped."

"Don't take me away, don't sell me!" Suddenly, Song Xiangmei cried again.

Jiang He looked at Song Xiangmei who had gone completely mad, and a stone in his heart fell to the ground. This is the most reasonable and least contradictory explanation. That night, Song Xiangmei saw that the villagers were about to catch up with the two of them. In order not to be caught, she cut off the head of her best best friend, and used He Caiwei's death to stop the chasing villagers.

This is the most effective way, and the villagers are all scared.

And this may be why Song Xiangmei is so afraid of He Caijie's revenge, and why Song Xiangmei hopes to shoot He Caijie so much.

"I don't want to go back, don't!"

Song Xiangmei's reaction became more and more intense, which made Jiang He unable to stay here any longer.

As Jiang He walked out of the ward, he kept thinking, do people change the environment, or does the environment change people? Why have all the people in the deserted village become the worst? Why can the victim also become the perpetrator?

Jiang He didn't have the answer to this question, but Jiang He understood one thing: there is indeed a curse in this world, and the curse is in everyone's heart.
