Chapter 9 Follow-up
"I'm afraid I won't be able to say anything like 'nice to see you here' at this point."
In Dr. Johnson's psychiatric clinic, he still sits there wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a shirt, and his polite temperament and professional smile always make people think, 'Well, he can read me.'"
At this time, sitting in the chair opposite Johnson's voice on the weekend, there was only a desk between the two of them, and the desk without any documents in the sunlight would make him try to forget the reality that he was coming for a follow-up visit, at least there were no books and medical records related to pathological analysis on this table, perhaps this could minimize the idea of 'I am a patient' to the person sitting across the table, which was very intimate. However, the weekend returned to the Beverly Hills psychological clinic at the start of the new year for a follow-up appointment, which was the first choice he made after finishing the Ted case and starting to be chased by the entire Los Angeles media, a choice that came from some change in his life.
The first thing to change is the office location, a patrol officer who went from Los Angeles Chinatown to work in the Wandering District Police Department no longer needs to wear a police uniform every day but changes into a suit to report to the police department, the double-edged sword of fate begins to bloom with the brilliance of the other side, that is to say, the building not only has comfortable air conditioning and walls that can shelter from the wind and rain, but also Quinn, the boss of the homicide department, will always inadvertently appear in front of the eyes of the weekend, such as the award ceremony, such as the hall on the first floor when stepping into the police station building, Another example is the elevator door when waiting for the elevator, or the elevator where only the two of them exist.
The feeling was not subtle at all, every time the two of them met, there would be a confrontation between physiological magnetic fields, and the image of neither of them speaking but always staring into each other's eyes would always appear, whether it was someone else in the environment or only the two of them coexisting, this scene has never changed.
As a result, the weekend seemed to experience the 'catfish effect' and turned on all the defense systems. He will become cautious in all work except for the Anti-Crime and Anti-Narcotics Bureau, just like the last time the knight called him to let him go to the homicide department and hung up the phone in a hurry, he could feel the feeling of a hedgehog being in combat readiness when he was threatened, only to be told that he was only informed of the work report when he was ready to handle the case.
"Dr. Johnson ......"
"Wait a minute, Zhou."
As a psychiatrist. Johnson was more professional than the others, he first interrupted the weekend's explanation, and then stretched out his index finger to push the frame of his glasses on the bridge of his nose: "If I heard me right, you just told me that when I see Quinn now, I will always start to tense unconsciously, even if he is not in front of you, I will not be able to control my mind to think of some special plan, planning to take him to the police station??" ”
Weekend nodded.
"According to you, you are no longer at the level where there are always thoughts that go beyond the scope of the police's thinking, and you already have a subjective sense of attack, right?" Dr. Johnson came up with a hypothesis: "What if you didn't have those feuds with Quinn?" As a seconded detective of the Anti-Crime and Narcotics Bureau, you also do not have the power to interrogate Homicide Bureau inmates. Would you just like to see Quinn as a stumbling block? "It's a scary assumption, and if it does, then Weekend's feelings for Quinn don't stem from past grudges, but rather because he's in his way.
"How is that possible!" He found it ridiculous to answer the weekend's negative answers.
"Okay, this issue will be put aside for the time being, and we will change directions."
"Zhou, how long has it been since you rested? As far as I know. Police officers should have five weeks of paid leave, right? ”
"I have about three weeks and six days left." The weekend is remembered very clearly.
That is to say. You've only had eight days off in the past year? The corners of Johnson's mouth showed a downward arc, but there was no disgusting expression on his face, this kind of face often appeared in the American dramas I watched over the weekend, a little indescribable, if you add a shrug of the shoulders will appear more clearly: "Zhou." I'm not saying that the feud between Quinn and you doesn't need to be cared about at all, I can certainly understand that this is a game, and he blocks your way to the homicide department, otherwise you can face the serial killer directly...... What's it called? ”
"Ted."
"yes, that's it."
"But you have to know that people are not machines. No one can operate at such high intensity in your position for so long, and endure one case after another that ordinary people simply can't bear. ”
"Hey, your mind is too tight and you're going to break yourself."
Dr. Johnson added some gestures to the conversation over the weekend to make the conversation more vivid, such as sticking out his index finger and pointing to the side of the desk to replace a name he can't remember, or using a rubber band gesture to prove his words, this kind of small gesture can play a role in relaxing the patient, after all, there are many people in this world who are relatively easy to be driven, just like a child who never swears in a few street gangsters can be fluent in scolding the street after a few days of swearing, only the doctor relaxes first, This environment will become more comfortable. Of course, this kind of thing must not be done at the first time he meets with the weekend, which would make the psychiatrist look too frivolous.
"Why don't we talk about the treatment after the last time, Zhou, do you think the treatment has had any effect after the last time?"
Treat?
He couldn't remember the weekend, but he clearly remembered that the doctor didn't prescribe any medication for him......
In the process of thinking about it over the weekend, Dr. Johnson put his hands on his chest and turned his wrists outward to represent the woman's roundness and said: "Woman, don't think about it, last time our treatment was communication and release, you need to find someone who is not a doctor and enough for you to trust, and at the same time, date with a woman who is suitable for you......"
“S―h―i―t。” Weekend eyelids rolled up and scolded.
"Don't tell me you didn't do what I asked." Johnson looked at him, expecting an answer.
"I didn't have time, the situation was very urgent, and if I couldn't catch Ted, the whole police station could be ......"
"Big star, I know what you're talking about, now I'm afraid the whole country has seen your lonely hero movie on the Internet. But that's not what we're talking about, right? ”
For the first time, Johnson began to become a little serious: "Zhou, I am your psychiatrist, you have to be completely honest with me and let go of your defenses, otherwise I will not be able to intervene in your world." ”
"Doctor, I don't."
"Then why make excuses? I don't have time to handle the case. I understand that it is a matter of human life, but do you remember how many media outlets have aired interviews with you on television in recent times? Now even the LAPD's Twitter -- on Twitter -- has fans starting to ask about you and Chekov, and then you tell me -- don't have time?? ”
"OK, even if this is a Chinese expression, like Chinese parents always use 'hungry or not, dress warmly' instead of 'I love you', but how many people in your world can really understand that they actually want to say, 'Honey, in fact, I don't doubt that you have the ability to tell me when you're hungry, it's just that your grandparents took care of us like this when we were growing up.'" This makes it especially difficult for us to say the words I love you, and we have to do it another way, and I wonder why you don't just say what's in your heart? Zhou, I must reiterate that you are dealing with a psychiatrist, and I can't guess how you feel in every treatment, in which case I may ruin you directly because of a small mistake. ”
"I can be more specific, I need to know what went wrong."
I could understand Johnson over the weekend, even if he used very inappropriate analogies. At the very least, it proves that this psychiatrist is responsible, and he is willing to take the heart to understand the therapeutic barriers that differences between races may bring.
"Uh......"
The weekend finally spoke. It's just that his words sound too incredible to Johnson.
"Doctor." I tidied up my suit over the weekend: "I don't know how to describe my own feelings, I can only try to be as detailed as possible, it is a very simple process for me for a man to become interested in a woman, I have to feel that she is in line with my eyes, which is not necessarily pretty." But I want to look comfortable; Then there is the desire to arouse my physiological impulses, the idea of conquering a woman, or to put it more bluntly, I have to think of her; After that, through conversation, romantic dating, and slowly cultivating something called 'love' in the topics and environments that we are all interested in, these are all there. I can trust her and tell her what I want and what I bear, and she will have to help me share it. ”
Johnson pondered the weekend's words: "It doesn't contradict what I'm saying. ”
"So, what's the problem?"
"The problem is that I can admire the beauty of a woman, and I can also make unbridled jokes, that is...... It's just ......" after two in a row, the weekend finally spoke: "I don't know many women, but the women around me can't arouse my interest in conquering them, I prefer to conquer guys like Ted, Robin, and Adam, how can I experience ......"
"The thrill of winning and losing."
Johnson concludes that the key point of the problem is, why do people lose interest in other jobs after gambling addiction? The reason is very simple, he wants to win, and wanting to win chips is the standard of how much dose of excitement is raised, at this time, even if the gambler has no money, he will fantasize about how to enjoy life after winning a lot of money, but you really let him win a lot of money, he must have rested enough and turned around and went to gamble again, until he lost all the money he won.
His patient also seems to be addicted to the weekend, and his addiction is the endless physiology in the process of solving crimes, which is more technical than gambling, and he can reverse victory and defeat through skillful skill, rather than betting on hole cards and watching destiny. This addiction, which seems to have nothing to do with fate, is becoming more controllable and becoming more addictive. In other words, the current state of the weekend belongs to the state that can completely perceive whether a woman is beautiful or not, just like a hungry person, but this guy is often disturbed by emotions when he is the most hungry.
"Zhou, do you think the psychological change is good in addition to bringing you a burden?"
"Benefits?"
After thinking about it for a while, he blurted out almost without wasting much time: "Could it be related to the fact that I can find ideas to solve the case faster than others?" ”
Johnson's pupils dilated instantly, and he thought to himself: "He-he---he uses mental illness as a tool to solve crimes, no wonder he subconsciously resists treatment!" ”
"Zhou, you have to take time off work to receive systematic treatment."
……
In the police station, Pablo watched everyone in the conference room, his anger growing endlessly, and he screamed, "Who--he--can tell me what the hell the Armenians are up to??!! ”
Nick chose to be silent, Chekov looked up at the window, neither of these two brainless guys spoke, and the whole room was silent.
"Why did our lawyer come and bail him out less than an hour after we arrested Sass?" Pablo continued, drawing on his keen sense of smell in the Anti-Crime and Anti-Narcotics Section for many years, "This group of guys must be prepared, they are ready for all the reactions after being caught. ”
Tick, tick, tick.
Nick's cell phone rang suddenly, and he looked up after answering the phone and said, "SIR, my informant found a - poison - nest - presumably Russian, where he saw the two heirs of the Doko family. ”
"What?"
Pablo asked, glaring.
"Now......" Nick gestured to all the detectives in the room, meaning whether the briefing would continue or go first.
"What are you still doing, do you plan Matthew to vent his anger for the first time this year on the Anti-Crime and Anti-Narcotics Division? Listen, whatever the Russians are discussing with the people of the Duoko family, as long as there is evidence, arrest the people back for me! I will not allow any trouble, whether it is the Armenian fight for that broken chair or the bullshit war with the Russians and Salvadorans! (To be continued.) )
PS: Well, it's not like selling your own fragility, but there should be an explanation after being missing for so many days, I'm sorry everyone, I have scoliosis, I'm currently undergoing treatment, the book will be written, I will, don't worry.
