Chapter 142: Escape from the Asylum (1)
"Ancient ...... Special...... You...... Silk ......"
Gu Qi heard a severely deformed sound, high and low, loud and low, loud and low, he realized that there was something wrong with his hearing, and he couldn't move.
Someone was patting him in the face, his fingers cold.
Gu Qi opened his eyes with difficulty, his vision was blurry, and it took a while to see things clearly.
He was wearing a light gray psychiatric restraint suit, and was tied to an iron stool, his head could not be raised, his eyelids were so heavy as if they were pressed by a lead block, his mouth could not be closed, and saliva dripped on his thighs, pulling out a slender strand.
Hearing has finally returned.
"Mr. Guy? Mr. Guy? Can you hear me? ”
Someone was talking to him in English.
Gu Qi wanted to raise his head, but he couldn't do it, and his neck couldn't exert his strength at all.
"Don't play dead!" Someone behind him let out a low roar, rudely grabbing him by the hair and pulling his head up.
Gu Qi saw a stranger in a brown suit in front of him, stretched out his hand to support his eyelids, and took a flashlight to shine on his eyes, testing whether the dilation and contraction of his pupils were impaired.
His eyes were swelled and painful from the light, Gu Qi squinted his eyes and looked elsewhere, trying to turn his head, but he couldn't twist the hand that grabbed his hair.
"Don't worry, Mr. Guy, you were only injected with a powerful anesthetic a few hours ago, and you haven't fully recovered yet, and you'll probably be awake in another hour." The other person inserted the flashlight back into his chest pocket and picked up a medical record folder. It is covered with medical records in tabular form.
"Water ......" Gu Qi said with difficulty, his throat was so sore that it seemed like it was on fire, and it took a lot of strength to squeeze out the word.
"Give you water. Hehe...... "The man grabbing his hair splashed a glass of water on his face.
The smell of the water was very strange, as if a large amount of chlorine had seeped into it, but Gu Qi still swallowed all the water that flowed into his mouth, and he suddenly felt much more comfortable.
"Mr. Guy, I must confirm with you." The person in front asked, "Do you remember who I am?" ”
"Nope." Gu Qi replied simply, trying to remember what had happened before.
"I'm Dr. Elvis, Danny-Elwes." The other party frowned. It seemed that he was disappointed that Gu Qi didn't remember himself.
Gu Qi didn't speak, his mind was in chaos.
"Do you know who you are?" Elvis asked again.
"Gu Qi." Gu Qi replied quickly this time.
"No, your name is Guy. Steven-Guy, you're a Borderline-personality-disorder and highly aggressive person who killed your own wife two months ago. Since then, he has always fantasized that he is a Chinese man named Gu Qi. So being sent here for treatment, do you know where this is? Elvis spoke smoothly and seemed to repeat the phrase a lot.
"Rice Country." Gu Qi was very calm, he tried to release the chain, but it didn't work, this should be an illusion.
"Oh? There is progress. Elvis wrote something in his medical record and added, "This is Briar-Cliff-Insane-Asylum, a mental hospital with a forced incarnation nature. It means that if you don't treat it well, it's impossible to get out. ”
"Please tell me who I am." Gu Qi couldn't be sure what kind of illusion this was. Hope to gather more information.
"Good!" Elvis continued to write, seemingly satisfied with Gu Qi's performance: "You used to be a translator at the American Embassy in China, proficient in Chinese, Chinese New Year's Eve is seventy-seven years old this year, once divorced once, married to your second wife two years ago, no children, you were sent in, in addition to not admitting that you killed your wife, you also have serious self-harm tendencies and violent tendencies. ”
"I don't have those tendencies." Gu Qi felt that these settings about himself were very detailed, just like the real thing, no matter what he said, he could use medical records to explain it.
"No?" Elvis smiled and said, "If not, you wouldn't have carved Chinese on your arm, and you wouldn't have bitten Mr. Bellick a few hours ago." ”
Gu Qi saw a very stout arm with thick hair stretched out in front of him, with gauze wrapped around the arm, and there was an "O"-shaped blood mark, which looked like it had been bitten lightly.
"Where's Miao Yi?" Gu Qi asked again.
"Who is Miao Yi?" Elvis picked up the pen and tried to write it down on the medical record.
"It's nothing, who is Gu Qi?" Gu Qi looked at Elvis and asked.
"It's a big step forward to be able to ask this question." Elvis rustled for a while, and said: "We were also very curious at first, and specially investigated, you have never been in contact with a person named Gu Qi in Huaxia, and then when you filled in your name, you found out the real reason, your wife's name is Taylor-Young (Taylor-Young), the acronym is TY, your name is Steven-Guy, remove T from Steven, and you will be left with Seven, and remove Y from Guy, and you will be left with Gu, You killed your wife, removed TY, and left Seven-Gu, replaced with a Huaxia name, and called Gu Qi. ”
"Interesting premise." Gu Qi said lightly, he was very clear about the origin of his name, GU47, GU made the 4th sound, and then added 7, this is the real Gu Qi.
After scanning the office, Gu Qi asked again, "What year is it now?" ”
"What year do you think it is?" Elvis looked at Gu Qi curiously.
"I don't remember." Gu Qi saw that the things in the office were very old, including Elvis's clothes.
"It's 1974, don't forget it in the future." Elvis put down the pen, took out a cigarette without a filter from the cigarette case, lit it and asked Gu Qi, "Get one?" ”
"Okay." Gu Qi nodded.
"Not good, Mr. Guy. You didn't smoke before, and you started smoking after thinking of yourself as Gu Qi, which shows that in this regard. You don't make any progress. Elvis sighed, but still took out a cigarette and put it in Gu Qi's mouth, struck a match and lit it.
Gu Qi took a deep breath of his cigarette, his throat began to fire again, he thought for a while, and asked, "I want to ask why you were talking about my information just now." Do you want to add the title of rice country in front of 'embassy in China'? If we are all from the United States, shouldn't we just say the embassy in China? The word "rice country" is specially added, as if we are not from the same country. If you are a real doctor, you should know that this does not help my condition in any way, but is harmful. ”
Elvis paused for a moment.
Gu Qi continued: "Also, if there is a deviation in the details of life such as smoking and not smoking. plus a Chinese Gu Qi. Shouldn't Guy, a Mi-Chinese man, who is obviously a self-identity disorder and a loss of self-unity, be diagnosed with multiple personality disorder? Why borderline personality disorder? ”
Elvis continued to flute.
Gu Qi wanted to take advantage of this time to sort out his thoughts, but the back of his head was suddenly hit hard, his eyes went dark, and he fainted.
…………
When he woke up again, the back of his head was still throbbing with his heartbeat, and Gu Qi found that the restraint clothes on his body had been taken off. Changed into a set of soft cotton clothes, and lay in a small room of less than five square meters.
The bed is hard tied. With a disgusting smell and mobility regained, he rolled over and sat up, surveying his surroundings.
The room was dimly lit, and the light source was a small window out of which he couldn't even put his head out, and the door on the opposite side of the window was closed, and there was an observation window that could be opened from the outside, and a two-way drawer for delivering food.
I got out of bed and tried to pull the door, but I couldn't open it, and I went to the window again to look at the scene outside, and found that it was very dark, and I didn't know if it was dawn or evening.
Rubbing the back of his head and sitting back on the bed, Gu Qi began to think about the situation in front of him.
The conversation with Dr. Soul Erves was interrupted, and it was impossible to confirm whether the person was a real doctor, and even if he was, he would not be very clever, if not, then it should be a patient, but the patient pretended to be a doctor to treat people, but no one cared, could it be that this mental hospital has been controlled by the patient?
Also, what kind of fantasy is this?
The setting of his identity is almost perfect, and the environment is also very detailed and real, these two points add up, and if you stay for a long time, you are likely to lose yourself, and you can't tell whether it's illusory or realistic, from another point of view, this is more terrifying than the mapping illusion that is specifically used to kill people, although the mapping illusion is also very real, but because it is a scene pieced together with memory, there are some unreasonable places, and it is not easy to get lost.
John-Irving once said, "Your memory is a demon that appears on its own will, and you think you have it, but it actually owns you." ”
Albert Einstein once said, "Reality is only an illusion, but it is very persistent." ”
Gu Qi knew that getting lost often appeared inadvertently and was difficult to find, and once it appeared, it was difficult to eliminate it.
It's like cancer cells.
…………
"If you didn't, you wouldn't have carved Chinese...... on your arm"
Suddenly remembering Elvis's words, Gu Qi rolled up the sleeve of his left hand, and suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
There are only two words in his hand - illusion, but it is not his own handwriting.
Who carved the word? Is there anyone else trapped in a fantasy? How long have you been sleepy? Or is it the missing Miao Yi? When was the word engraved? Was it found when the engraving was made? If discovered, will you survive......
The horror of these two words is that they bring too many problems and possibilities, if Miao Yi is also involved in the illusion, whether it can survive in a mental hospital as a cat is a big problem, and if it is also here, Gu Qi must escape with it.
Rubbing his eyebrows, Gu Qi gradually recalled the office in Fort Knox-
(To be continued......)
