Chapter 34 Psychotherapy
Four hours ago, three hours after the world was modified by [Annihilation], on the other side of the earth, in New York, USA, at 5 p.m. local time, in the alley outside Dr. Stephen Strange's (Doctor Strange) psychological clinic
Ka Eyre: "(Review latest information) Stephen Strange, New York's most famous psychiatrist, is known to specialize in high-end clients, the kind of clients who value confidentiality and are particularly cautious...... Thanks to this, you are the most famous of the five, and you are the best to find...... I'm sorry, I'm sorry to borrow your identity, I don't have time to make an appointment......" - change your appearance, body shape, and put on the clothes that were ripped off the unlucky guy's body
Five minutes later, Stephen Strange received a new patient with an appointment
Dr. Strange: "Hello, Mr. Robert Cook (Robert_Cloak), I'm Dr. Strange......" - greeted, holding out his right hand
Ka El: "...... Just call me Robert. Without shaking hands, he walked straight to the sofa and sat down facing the entrance and window
Dr. Strange: "Don't shake hands with people you meet for the first time, walk into the room, choose to sit facing the door or window...... He is very defensive...... Is it a former military officer?
Kar Al: "Doctor, we can get started. ”
Dr. Strange: "Good...... Tell me a little bit about your profession, Mr. Robert. ”
Ka Al: "I am (hesitated)...... A consultant. ”
Dr. Strange: "Consultant?"
Ka El: "It's complicated...... It's hard to say...... It's also not too important...... It doesn't have much to do with the problems I'm having. -- flickering
Dr. Strange (belly slander): "Not only are you always on guard against external dangers, but you are also on guard against them on the inside...... I have to let him off his guard in order to find the cause......"
Dr. Strange: "I don't think so, work is usually tied to the patient's private life, and that is why you're having problems......"
Ka Al: "I've heard you're very cautious (patient evaluations) ......" - interrupts the doctor
Dr. Strange: "My clients are very privacy-conscious, and I respect that and will do my best to keep it ...... secret" – leaning forward, speaking softly, and using body language to enhance his persuasiveness
Ka El: "......" - quietly
Dr. Strange: "Don't talk about me, you're a patient, let's talk about you." ”
Ka El: "Alright...... Excuse me, can you close the curtains?"
Dr. Strange: "No problem, if only it makes you feel comfortable (turn around and pull up the curtains)...... Would you like something to drink?"
Ka Al: "Canned drink, thank you." ”
Dr. Strange: "(handing over a drink) Since this is the first time you've come to me, I don't have any information about you, so I'll start from the beginning and explain your problems and troubles (seeing that Ka El doesn't seem to have the desire to speak, change the way you put it)...... Or tell me why you came to me for psychotherapy, and what is your goal?" -- to use a question that is akin to military terminology
Ka El: "Target?"
Dr. Strange: "That's the purpose of this treatment. ”
Ka El: "En......"
Dr. Strange: "You see, you seem to be a little uneasy. ”
Ka El: "Why do you say that?"
Dr. Strange: "Your body language when you came in, telling me to close the curtains, and choosing canned drinks (to name a few)...... What are you afraid of?"...,
Ka El: "...... Doctor, have you ever felt like that? When I woke up, I suddenly felt that the whole world had changed, and I doubted that my office, my life, and everything around me were all fake......"- began to induce
Dr. Strange: "Yes. - a very affirmative tone
Kar El: "Oh, when did you feel that way?" - Secret joy
Dr. Strange: "When...... I've been through so much that I've had at least two or three ...... a month" - recalls
Ka El: "Huh?" - puzzled
Dr. Strange: "Especially in the past, when I was younger, after a night of karaoke, clubbing, and crazy with friends on Friday, this feeling was most obvious on Saturday morning......"
Ka El (belly slander): "You're a hangover!"
Ka El: "......" -- displeasure
Dr. Strange: "(Funny relaxation strategy fails, quick remedy) I'm kidding, don't you mind...... Sue me, do you see the world differently than others, do you think that there are dangers everywhere, and there are crises everywhere?" -- take the right approach
Me (voiceover): "Doctor, do you think it's useful to take the right attack? Ka El isn't sick, it's you." ”
@
An hour later
Dr. Strange: "...... In short, you are always watching and listening, and your vigilance is too high......"
Ka El: "You mean...... Am I paranoid?"
Dr. Strange: "Is that what you think?" - not affirming or denying, but directly rhetorical question
Ka Al: "......" - silent
Dr. Strange: "I'm thinking about something else......" - smiled
Ka El (belly): "Cut, I thought he was incapacitated and no longer Doctor Strange let his guard down on him, but who would have thought that after chatting, he unknowingly fell into his psychological trap and made a real show...... Even if they lose their superpowers, the Big Six can't be underestimated. ”
Dr. Strange: "Retired veteran?"
Karl Al: "Is it so obvious?"
Dr. Strange: "A little bit...... You are suffering from [Veteran's Syndrome], it doesn't matter, there are a lot of people who have had this disease recently, just talk about it a few more times and you will slowly recover. -- Comfort
Ka Eyre: "A lot of people have been getting this disease lately? The United States hasn't been at war for more than a decade. ”
Dr. Strange: "......" - smiling silently
Ka Al: "Did a patient with the same "symptoms" as me just come to you? Who is that "patient"?"
Dr. Strange: "I'm sorry, I can't sue you for violating the Doctor-Patient Confidentiality Ordinance...... When the time comes, you go to Lisa (the secretary) to make an appointment, and we'll talk next time. "--I want to get out
Ka Al: "Doctor ......" -- the program that monitored Gordon suddenly reacted
Ka Al: "Gordon woke up? It's not even seven o'clock in the morning in Gotham City, and he came together to turn on the computer and connect to the Internet?......? The signal was cut off, and his wife confiscated the computer...... (See the laptop on the doctor's desk) There's his schedule in there? It's easy to do......"
Ka El: "...... Okay, let's talk next time, goodbye. ”
Dr. Strange: "Goodbye. ”
Fifteen minutes later, the hackers of Kar Elton Guò gained access to Dr. Strange's schedule and patient list.
Ka Al (belly): "The world has just been born for four hours, and the patient in front of me is...... Hugh Jackman (Hugh_Jackman) ...... I haven't heard of it (google this person's information, get a photo)...... (Identifiable) Logan?"
Me (voiceover): "Ah, I recognize him too, he is the unbeatable mutant in the Battle of Paradise Island, the killing machine qì who starred in "Iron Fist". He still remembers the original world? Why?"
