In the early summer evening, a ferocious short-term thunderstorm has just fallen, and the streets are wet, and the originally turbid air has become a little fresher, with the breeze bringing a pleasant coolness.

Gu Yang drove a half-new silver-gray Jetta with open windows and was slowly squirming along Democracy Avenue in the dense traffic of the Friday evening rush hour.

His eyes swept over a medical record book placed under the front windshield again, Gu Yang's mood was very depressed, and the verdict of "preliminary diagnosis of schizophrenia" was written in black and white, which made him feel like the end of the world when he was in his prime.

A week ago, when Gu Yang was bored by the river looking at the stars, he was accidentally hit by a dazzling light in his head, and he was dizzy for a few seconds, and then he felt that there was an extra model of the earth in his brain that he suspected of seeing on a satellite.

As a very staunch materialist, Gu Yang was not half happy, but deduced from rigorous scientific common sense that he had a so-called hallucination. And once he experienced the complete process of people around him suffering from schizophrenia, at first he also had visual hallucinations, auditory hallucinations and other symptoms, his thinking was still quite clear, and he did see and hear the magical phenomena that others could not see and hear, and gradually the logic was confused, and finally he became a madman.

With such an impressive experience, Gu Yang had to be highly worried, he was not afraid of being injured and suffering, but it was absolutely unacceptable to become a madman. After feeling the earth in his brain more and more clearly for a few days, Gu Yang thought that his hallucination symptoms gradually deepened, and he judged that he was suffering from schizophrenia.

This afternoon, he deliberately asked for leave to go to a rehabilitation hospital specializing in the treatment of mentally ill patients, hung up a specialist outpatient clinic, and talked eagerly with a middle-aged female chief physician for more than 20 minutes, truthfully recounting his hallucinations during this period, and as expected, the female chief physician wrote down the diagnosis of schizophrenia. However, this doctor was quite kind, and comforted him earnestly, telling Gu Yang not to be nervous, it was still only the early stage, as long as it was treated in time, there should be no big problem. And asked Gu Yang to come over with his family tomorrow to go through the hospitalization procedures.

Depend on!

Thinking that he was going to stay with that group of logical madmen, Gu Yang couldn't help but feel a chill.

But the disease can't go untreated, let it develop, Gu Yang doesn't dare to imagine what kind of crazy person he will become. Hallucinations indicate that the situation is quite serious.

Gu Yang took a deep breath and shook off all kinds of concerns, he must not shy away from medical treatment, he must face it bravely and not let the situation deteriorate further. Let that woman accompany you to the hospital tomorrow!

"Didi ......"

There was a burst of piercing horns that seemed to be impatient, Gu Yang came back to his senses, looked at the long queue in front of him, and couldn't help but shake his head, but this was caused by the construction section, half of the street was isolated and controlled, and several traffic police were waving in the traffic to command. On the side of the one-person-tall blue baffle, more than a dozen large yellow excavators are working intensively to complete the 90-day renovation plan of Main Street.

I want to come here and there is a "credit" of the mother-in-law at home, the mother-in-law carries the prominent title of deputy mayor, in charge of urban construction, public security, transportation, education, tourism and other important departments, and it can be regarded as a high power, Yangzhou six counties, two cities and three districts have a total population of more than 7 million, the total economic volume ranks second in the province, and the permanent population of the urban area is more than 2 million, and the status is still quite significant. And it was the mother-in-law's drastic transformation of the city that won the glorious title of "digging all over the city", which led to this annoying scene.

It took half an hour, Gu Yang drove the Jetta car and finally climbed through the construction section about two hundred meters long, walked a few hundred meters forward, and when he was about to reach the Xiangjiang bridgehead, he turned left into a relatively secluded street, and walked a few hundred meters, and there was a gray cement courtyard wall on the right side that was one story high and had a snake belly barbed wire fence reinforced on the top, and there was a large impermeable iron door in the center, which was Guyang's current home.

Gu Yang hit the steering wheel to the right, and at the same time picked up the remote control lock from the dashboard, stretched out the window from the left, pressed it on the top of the door, and with a "drop" sound, the door slowly opened automatically to both sides.

When the door was fully opened, Gu Yang stepped on the accelerator and rushed in neatly.

A brand-new black Audi car has been parked under the old locust tree in the courtyard inside the door, which is the special seat of the mother-in-law's leader, and the person in charge of driving is a female special forces sent by her mother's family, who is said to have just retired from the army, and is also a part-time bodyguard. Although the mother-in-law is usually very busy at work, she usually goes home on time after work at night, and then continues to work at home without a break.

Immediately after stopping the Audi car, turning off the engine, pulling the handbrake, pulling out the key, opening the door and getting out of the car, Gu Yang pressed it back with his hand and closed the big automatic iron door.

Looking up at the chic two-story small western-style building in front of him, Gu Yang had an indescribable complex taste in his heart.

Unlike other leading cadres, the mother-in-law did not want to stay in the unit leadership room of the municipal government, but found such a quiet place through her mother's relationship. This has something to do with Gu Yang, who has a low status, and the mother-in-law doesn't feel very face-saving and doesn't want him to be exposed to the public eye. In addition, except in public, the mother-in-law didn't like to socialize with others in private, so she stayed here.

Unlike in the past, when he felt depressed, Gu Yang suddenly had a special sense of intimacy, as if this was heaven. He knew that this was because he was about to be admitted to a mental hospital, and compared to getting along with a group of crazy people, no matter how unbearable the family was, it was much better, at least with full freedom.

Walking to the door, Gu Yang took out the key and opened the door, there was a fifty-inch LCD TV on the right side of the huge living room, which was playing the provincial news broadcast that started at 6:30 every night, and on the beige combination leather sofa next to the left wall, there was a Miaoman figure sitting on the front side, with a serious expression, which was really a little incongruous.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Wang Shiya turned her head and glanced at Gu Yang, who had a rare smile on her face, she frowned slightly when she was not used to it, "Why did you come back?" ”

"Traffic jams. It's not your good deed, building roads everywhere. Gu Yang said very lightly, bending down to take off his black leather shoes and gray socks, and changed a pair of blue flip-flops from the shoe rack next to him.

Wang Shiya's heart was very blocked, and Zhengse preached: "If you endure the blockage for a while, it will be much smoother in the future, and you can't be a man!" ”

Gu Yang didn't want to fight with her, so he smiled and didn't go upstairs directly as usual, but walked to the single-seater sofa diagonally opposite her and sat down.

In the kitchen at the other end of the small hall, Aunt Qing, the nanny, was busy making dinner, and she could vaguely smell the smell of fish-flavored shredded meat. The bodyguard Xiao Liu probably hid in her room and used her iPhone to catch up on the popular novels of the starting point female frequency, anyway, when Wang Shiya occupied the hall, they always tried not to disturb.

Wang Shiya stared at the serious provincial leaders who were in a meeting on TV without blinking, and she was very engaged, as if she was also one of them, which made Gu Yang really unbearable, but he still endured it, and it seemed to be a great luxury to accompany her to watch the news like this.

Later?

Alas......

A faint sadness welled up in Gu Yang's heart, how precious a normal person's life is!

Wang Shiya, who had just bathed, was wearing a conservative set of pale green pajamas, and her breast-length hair that had not yet dried was so freely scattered, compared with her usual serious image, she was a little more charming. In the eyes of Gu Yang, who was pleasing to the eye at this time, it was extremely good-looking, and he couldn't help but be a little obsessed.

For this five-year-old Niu Cha wife, Gu Yang can be said to have a lot of feelings. When I was a child, I was in the same compound, and my grandfather, who had a good relationship with each other, was a heavyweight, and the arrogant Wang Shiya always ignored other boys, and after Gu Yang saved her life when she was five years old, she had the consciousness of being a sister at the age of ten, and in the next two years, she gave Gu Yang an unforgettable strong sisterly love. Then Gu Yang returned to his parents who were ordinary people, and since then he and Wang Shiya have rarely seen each other again, and they have walked out of different life trajectories as they grow older.

Wang Shiya's life is dazzling, she is a super student at school, she goes to school early, and skips a grade halfway, she graduated from the famous Beijing University with a doctorate degree at the age of 22, and entered a smooth career with a very high starting point.

Gu Yang joined the army after graduating from high school at the age of 16, and until he retired at the age of 22 and became an ordinary person, he looked much more bland.

As for the marriage between the two that are not commensurate, it was proposed by Wang Shiya's grandfather, this arrogant princess doesn't look down on other men at all, and her grandfather has no choice, so he launched Gu Yang, who got along with her quite well when he was a child, and gave a death order, no matter who she finds, she must get married within a year.

So Gu Yang, who had just retired, was honored to usher in a special appointment with Wang Shiya, who couldn't stand other men besides him, she told him frankly about the expectations of the two grandfathers, and said that the two could get married first, and then cultivate their feelings later, and then really be together when they have feelings, what they say is better than singing. Gu Yang, who still stayed in the warm memory of his childhood, was moved, won the beauty scheme, and agreed with a hot head, there is a super beautiful royal sister wife, it is still very cool, the two quickly got married, and envyed many sons and brothers in the circle, the unattainable Miss Wang is a super goddess that countless young talents look up to.

But not long after getting along, Gu Yang found that Wang Shiya, who used to be full of sisterly love, had already changed and became a serious and stereotypical workaholic, who didn't know how to hurt people at all, and didn't have much common language with her. In the two years since they got married, the two haven't said many nutritious words, let alone playing together, and cultivating feelings is completely empty talk.

Gu Yang regretted getting on this mother-in-law's thief ship a little, but it was easy to get on the boat and difficult to get off the boat, he didn't want to hurt the earnest hearts of the older generation, and he didn't want to lose everyone's face, so he could only make do with it, and he looked forward to maybe it would change in the future.

But now, Gu Yang found that no matter how wrong that woman was, she was also his wife, and she was seriously ill, and she had unknowingly become his spiritual pillar.

Wang Shiya had already sensed the guy's abnormal gaze staring at her, and she was usually used to him turning a blind eye to herself, but suddenly doing this made her a little unaccustomed.

When the news switched to the promotion of a hot spring in a non-important part, Wang Shiya turned her head, met Gu Yang's eager gaze, and asked with a serious face: "What's going on with you today, what are you doing staring at me?" ”

A word woke up the person in the dream, Gu Yang, who was immersed in a beautiful fantasy, couldn't help laughing at himself, how could the mother-in-law be gentle?

Gu Yang pouted: "You are my wife, how many times can I look at you?" ”

Wang Shiya's face was serious: "What do you usually do?" Your eyes have grown to heaven, when have you seen me right? ”

Listening, Gu Yang found that this was really the case, he seemed to be a little excessive, and he said eloquently: "What about you, when did you look at me again?" I know about work all day, and I'm on the verge of a mental breakdown now, and you don't react at all. ”

Looking at the righteous indignation on that guy's face, Wang Shiya was very annoyed, she worked hard for more than 7 million people in the city wholeheartedly, even if he was inconsiderate, he didn't have a sense of the overall situation, he thought about his little bourgeoisie all day long, and he was quite angry.

Wang Shiya tried her best to calm down her agitated mood, and her tone softened a little: "What's wrong with your spirit?" "No wonder it feels like that guy is weird today.

A warm current surged through Gu Yang's heart, and he couldn't help but secretly scold himself for being too unproductive, the mother-in-law cared for a little, and it was so easy to be moved, he frowned and said: "I feel a little split recently, and I love to be cranky. ”

"Neurotic!" Wang Shiya couldn't help but scolded: "What are you thinking about all day long? ”

Gu Yang was a little serious: "I'm not kidding. Schizophrenia is neurosis! ”

Seeing that guy's serious appearance, Wang Shiya couldn't help but pay attention, raised her hands, stretched out three fingers in her left hand, and four fingers in her right hand, "How many is this?" ”

"Seven!" Gu Yang was speechless, "Don't treat me as a kindergarten child, okay?" ”

Wang Shiya was very relieved in her heart, and asked noncommittally: "Who am I?" She really misses the days when that guy was a kindergarten child, how likable he was at that time, like now he is a complaining husband all day long, and he is angry.

Gu Yang gritted his teeth and said, "Vice Mayor Wang, can you ask some questions about nutrition?" If I do go to a mental hospital, you'll be comfortable. ”

Wang Shiya glared disapprehrovingly: "You have clear logic, how do you look like a schizophrenic?" Don't think about it all day, just take a break. Even if you want to go to a mental hospital, it's not a big deal, with me here, what are you afraid of? Psychosis is not a terminal illness either. "It's better to say than to sing.

Gu Yang sniffed uncontrollably: "Thank you, I will definitely cheer up!" ”

Seeing his exaggerated reaction, Wang Shiya suddenly made up her mind: "I'll go out with you tomorrow and relax." ”

"......" Gu Yang was suddenly moved, it was not easy to let the mother-in-law who cared about the people of the world accompany him, he didn't want to talk about his illness for a while, he just wanted to feel the good life of normal people again.

The provincial news broadcast is finally over, and in the next weather forecast, it will be cloudy in Yangzhou tomorrow, with a temperature of 23-28 degrees, which is a very suitable day for travel.

However, for Wang Shiya, this is only a third of the way, and the next central news broadcast and city news are her daily compulsory courses.

"Xiao Liu, it's time to eat."

Aunt Qing's shout came from the kitchen, and soon a capable young woman walked out of the room next to the small hall, very skillfully setting up the folding table for Mayor Wang and the others in the hall, and then ran to the kitchen to serve food.

After a while, two meats, two vegetables and one soup were placed on the table, and the rice of the two was served, and the old man Gu Yang was unceremoniously the first to eat. As for Aunt Qing and Xiao Liu, they ate at the Big Eight Immortals table in the small hall as usual, and the dishes were the same. For this situation, Gu Yang could only shake his head, blaming that the mother-in-law was too unfriendly to the people, always putting on a leadership posture with a straight face, and there was no stop at home, only he Gu Yang could eat with her easily.

Aunt Qing's cooking skills are still good after professional training, Gu Yang ate with relish, and after a while, three bowls of rice were ordered, and the dishes were also eaten. Wang Shiya's appetite has never been very good, a small bowl of rice is the standard, she basically doesn't eat much meat, she mainly eats some green food, and she doesn't know where her daily work energy comes from.

Wang Shiya is accustomed to watching simulcasts while eating, and Gu Yang watches her while eating, he has been married for so long, he has never seen so much as he does today, and he is quite emotional. is a very eye-catching wife, why is she a workaholic who doesn't understand amorous feelings? Looking at those national leaders on TV, Gu Yang couldn't help but think that one day in the future, the promising mother-in-law would also become one of them, thinking of that day, Gu Yang had a terrible headache, and now she is just a small deputy mayor and she is so posing, and when a big official doesn't know what will become.

After eating, Aunt Qing and Xiao Liu quickly cleaned up, and only Gu Yang and Wang Shiya were left in the hall.

Gu Yang didn't hurry upstairs after eating as usual, but continued to lean on the soft sofa and accompany the mother-in-law to do the most boring thing - watching the news. Of course, his eyes fell more on the woman's body, and it felt pretty good not to think about her leader's face.

It would be nice to be able to live like this every day. Gu Yang sighed with emotion in hindsight, cherishing this rare normal life.

Wang Shiya also served that guy, and today he can endure the news bombardment for so long, usually he can't even hold on for two minutes. As for him staring at himself from time to time, Wang Shiya, who had a straight face, felt a little stinky and beautiful in her heart, and regained some self-confidence. is often ignored by him, Wang Shiya doesn't think so, but in her heart she actually cares a lot, she has unlimited scenery outside, full of confidence, she can't always find this feeling at home, and the guy who has been fearless to officials since he was a child is really a wonder.

When the city news was broadcast, Gu Yang couldn't help but yawn, he really couldn't stand it, but with the support of cherishing the belief in front of him, he still didn't run away, and insisted on continuing to appreciate the demeanor of the city leaders. Gu Yang couldn't figure out how the mother-in-law persevered in such a monotonous and rigid working environment every day, and she was so enthusiastic?

Finally, Gu Yang saw the figure of the mother-in-law on TV, and his spirit couldn't help but perk.

I saw that the high-spirited lady was sitting in the middle of the rostrum, attending the enlarged meeting of the party committee of the city public security bureau, and impassionedly making a keynote report on "strengthening organizational discipline, purifying the ranks, and striving to improve combat effectiveness." The words were conclusive and high-spirited, and then I looked at the leaders of the city bureau next to them, one by one, they listened carefully to the lectures, and took notes from time to time, which was really like that.

After the picture was broadcast, Gu Yang naturally set his eyes on Mayor Wang's face in reality and compared it carefully.

Wang Shiya glared at her with some unhappiness: "What are you looking at?" ”

Gu Yang smiled slightly: "You look a lot better than on TV." ”

Wang Shiya snorted lightly: "It's not serious!" "It's a good mood, and it's not easy to get the guy who has no one in his eyes to say something nice.

After surviving the bombardment of city news, it was eight o'clock in the evening, Gu Yang let out a long sigh of relief, and finally challenged his limit once, he hated official news when he was a child, and this time he watched three news broadcasts at different levels in a row, it was really too difficult for him.

Go back to your room on the second floor, take a T-shirt and shorts, and come to the spacious and bright luxury bathroom, Gu Yang took a cold shower with a shower head, and his whole body was comfortable.

When I turned around and passed by the door of Wang Shiya's study, I found that she was already sitting at the large brown wood desk, staring intently at her laptop, probably working on the electronic version of official documents, and did not notice anyone at the door.

Gu Yang sighed lightly, didn't bother her, and walked straight back to his bedroom diagonally opposite.

With his hands on the aluminum alloy window, Gu Yang condescendingly looked at the wide Xiangjiang River more than 200 meters away, under the shining neon lights, the river surface loomed, and a cruise ship with colorful lanterns was slowly breaking the waves, everything seemed so peaceful and natural.

In the future, I will not be able to enjoy such a peaceful life so easily.

Gu Yang's face was a little firm for a while, the words of the mother-in-law before gave him a lot of encouragement, and with her there, he was indeed a lot more relieved. As a critically ill patient, what you need most is the comfort of your loved ones.

Suddenly, that annoying model of the earth appeared in my head.

This time, Gu Yang was determined not to immediately divert his attention as before, but wanted to find out, and he was not even afraid of being admitted to a mental hospital, what else was he afraid of? He had felt that this earth was very real before, not too much like an illusion, and since they were all going to be hospitalized, he had to find out how to be willing.

Gu Yang closed his eyes, focused his attention on the earth model, and felt it with his heart.

The vast blue ocean, the snow-white polar regions of the north and south poles, and the rest of the land are diverse in color, representing different landforms. All this is very familiar to Gu Yang, who is proficient in geography, this is the earth he lives on.

With his thoughts, Gu Yang found that the earth also rotated, which was quite magical.

Gu Yang couldn't help but squeeze his thigh hard, it felt very painful, this was not a dream!
