"By the way, how long have you been working here as a volunteer?" said the dean, pushing himself to his desk and rummaging through the papers on the desk.

"Don't look for it, it's a month. I said.

The dean smiled and said, "There are too many things, and it's a bit messy. By the way, what are you studying? Are you a medical student?"

"No, no, no, I studied marketing. I don't have much experience in caring for patients, so it won't be too difficult, right?" I said.

"That's right, we're working on this. If it's an intern, we'll train him for at least three months. After that, the assessment will be carried out, and only those who pass can take up the post. But if you're only here for a month, it's impossible to complete the training. The dean said, flipped over a form, and looked at it.

I took a look, and it was exactly the form I had filled out.

"Is it that hard? So is there that kind of sweeping and choring work? I'll help out, do the basics. I'm not afraid of hardship, I'm not afraid of being tired. I said.

"Let's just put it this way, we're special here. As you know, we take care of the mentally ill, and almost all the work here requires a professional counterpart. Or at least a little temporary first aid knowledge. Just say that in case you don't have a patient to watch over and fall from a height, you are the only one nearby and there are no other staff. If you can't do even the simplest first aid, it's hard for you to work or help here. The dean said lightly, folding the form in half and throwing it into the trash.

I nodded my head and said, "Then I don't have a chance?"

"It's not, whether you've studied some math or not. The dean said with a smile.

I nodded my head and said, "Yes, I learned it when I was a child." But you threw all my list in the trash, isn't there no chance?"

"The little girl just now is called Pang Xiaoyu, and you have been taking care of her and playing with her for the past month. Do you think that's difficult?" said the dean, taking out a new form, filling out a few boxes, and handing it to me.

"It shouldn't be difficult at all. "I took the form, and it turned out to be an entry form.

The salary is three thousand, a one-month entry contract.

I was overjoyed, but I didn't feel right.

"I'm a volunteer, and I can't talk about taking money. I said immediately.

"You know, you are a volunteer to the outside. But internally, we are obliged to pay your salary, and this is not the outside after all. Even if you're a medical student, we'll do the same process when you come to volunteer. You don't have to worry about it, not taking special care of you. The dean said with a smile.

I nodded my head and started filling out the form. While writing, he remembered something and said: "But it's just taking care of a child, and getting a little money... ”

"Of course, I don't need you to take her around to hang around. What you need to teach, somewhat similar to a tutor. The dean said.

"What can I teach this kid? She probably knows more than I do?" I said.

"Have you ever heard of the Millennium Prize problem?" said the dean.

"Seven math problems? Each of them was rewarded with a million prizes? As long as the conclusion is published in a world mathematics journal, it will be considered successful if there is no intention within two years? Seven I remember that one has been solved, is this what you are talking about?" I said.

"Yes, the Poincaré conjecture has been solved. There are six more, and I hope to train Xiaoyu to become someone who can solve these problems in the future. Of course, before I saw Xiaoyu, I thought that there was no one in this world who could solve the remaining six puzzles. But Xiaoyu has a kind of magic, she understands more than mathematics. It can be said that it is very pure, more like mathematical skills. The dean said.

"Speaking of Xiaoyu's math, Dean. When I came, Xiaoyu and I were on a bus, and the bus driver said that she could know the numbers in advance in the lottery box of the ball game. I said.

"Yes, it's true. That's her charm, and there are many, many more surprises like this. The dean said.

"I also heard from the driver that Xiaoyu never went to school. She's twelve now, isn't she? Why don't you let her go to school?" I said.

The Dean glanced at me, and it was the first time I had made eye contact with the Dean.

The dean sighed and said, "When I was eight years old, we took Xiaoyu to school. But Xiaoyu is an orphan, and the situation is extremely special. So it's easy to be bullied by other children, and I'm helpless. Besides, you know that this is a mental hospital, but in fact, Xiaoyu's spirit is not normal. ”

"Not quite normal?" I said.

"Although you only need to take care of Xiaoyu for a month, it's better to talk to you. You know that Xiaoyu was born in a mental hospital, right? Her parents are also mentally ill. The dean said.

I nodded my head and said, "Xiaoyu's parents are both mentally ill?"

"No, not all of them. It's all my fault, it's my own doing. The dean said that tears actually flowed from the corners of his eyes, and his voice actually began to tremble.

"Dean, don't be in a hurry, speak slowly. I said.

"Sit down, the story might be a bit long. The dean pointed to the couch not far away.

"Fourteen years ago, there was a murderer named Huge Sea, you know?" said the dean.

"Five serial murders? I remember when I was in elementary school, the school required parents to pick me up and drop me off. That month, no one in the city dared to go out alone at night, and people were terrified. Wait, Da Da Hai and Pang Xiaoyu? is this the murderer's daughter?" I exclaimed, covering my mouth.

"You're guessing right, but maybe the process will be different from what you think. The dean said.

I can only be shocked at the moment, I have never been so eager to know something in my life.

"The family of the huge sea came to me fourteen years ago. 150,000, let me help them forge a spiritual report. It was claimed that Panghai had a neuropathy and that Panghai would be hospitalized for treatment. The dean said.

"You agreed?" I said.

"At that time, a mountain collapsed to the west of the mental hospital. There was no money in the hospital to build a fence and strengthen the foundation, so I had no choice but to agree to the family of Da Dahai. Of course, I thought about it and took care of him as if he were the most serious mental patient. Protective clothing and tranquilizers are available 24 hours a day, and if not to serve his sentence, he will be almost like he is in prison. The dean said.

"Something happened. I said.

The dean lifted his wheelchair and appeared in front of me with his right foot empty.

"It's not going to be a huge sea dry, is it?" I gasped.

"Yes, there is also a participant named Xiaowen who caused all this. Of course I deserve it, and I don't blame her. The dean said.

"Huge sea, and then Xiaowen, wait, what's this?" I said.

"Xiaowen is a female patient, very beautiful. Back then, the intensive care unit of Panghai, next to Xiaowen's ward. We thought about everything, but we ignored Xiaowen. Have you heard of Stockholm syndrome?" said the dean.

"Are you saying that the victim of the crime has feelings for the criminal, how can the bloody disease really exist? I said.

"Xiaowen came in with major depression, and for two years, Xiaowen would go through the window every night to find the huge sea. Xiaowen prepared a knife for the huge sea, which has been planning for a long time. At that time, I was also in charge of serving as the attending physician of Da Da Hai, after all, I brought this person. I'm going to let the least number of people know about the existence of the huge sea, and that's when my leg was cut off. The dean said.

"And then?" I said.

"Thankfully, the rest of the staff arrived and saved my life. I re-did a psychiatric evaluation for Panghai, who was taken away by the police and sentenced to death immediately. I was supposed to be fired for dereliction of duty, but everyone knew that I was doing it for a mental hospital, so I was asked to continue to act as president. After all, I have paid the price for my life for my mistakes, but we didn't expect Xiaowen to be pregnant. The dean said.

"Is it a little rain in this belly?" I said.

"Yes, it's a light rain. Xiaowen committed suicide six times during her pregnancy, all of which were stopped. We thought about having an abortion for her, but she insisted on having the baby. After all, children are innocent, and we have no right to deprive a little life. The dean said.

"I don't know anything about medicine, and I want to ask Xiaowen if he is still affected by that Stockholm syndrome at this stage?" I said.

The dean paused, nodded his head and said, "This is inevitable, we can't treat it." At first, we thought it was simple, who knew that Xiao Wen actually wanted to commit suicide together after giving birth to Xiaoyu. ”

"Why didn't I kill myself in the stomach?" I said, puzzled.

Xiaowen wants to know whether it is a boy or a girl who is born, and if he dies directly. She may feel that she can't explain the gender of the child to Danghai, probably thinking about reuniting the family in the underworld. The dean said.

"And then?" I asked again.

Xiaowen chose to jump off the building, but at the last moment he probably figured it out. hugged Xiaoyu tightly, so he didn't fall to his death. And Pang Xiaoyu's name is also Xiaowen's name, I heard that Xiaowen was a college student from a prestigious school before he came to the hospital. The name is really literary, and Xiaoyu is also very well-behaved. Then we found out that she had such a talent, so that's why I trained her like this. The dean said.

"I didn't expect there to be such a story here. I sighed.

"I don't feel indebted to anyone now, but I'm really not at ease with Xiaoyu. So I hope you can do me a favor, after all, you know a little bit of math better than everyone else. It's okay to share it for me?" said the dean.

I nodded my head and said, "Isn't it just a twelve-year-old? I can do that." ”

"Thank you, then you can start work today. You can play and teach half-way, otherwise Xiaoyu won't listen. If you ask her to write all of the Euler formulas today, she will complete today's task, and Xiaoyu should be in the staff cafeteria now. You can take my meal card first, and your meal card will come to me tomorrow to change it. 8 in the morning and 8 in the evening, with a two-hour break at noon. I only need to take care of Xiaoyu, and I don't need your help for anything else. The dean said with a smile.

I took the meal card and nodded.
