Chapter 175: The Murderer Who Exposed His Feet
Wu Ansu's heart couldn't help but sink.
Ju Xiaoxing is now a vegetative person whose brain has stopped thinking activities, and her vision basically has no effect, if the only sense of hearing that can receive hypnotic instructions is closed again, doesn't that mean that she will fall into a deep sleep forever and cannot wake up?
Li Mengnan put Ju Xiaoxing's hand back into the quilt, broke off a banana from the fruit basket on the table, and asked while peeling it, "Officer Wu, has anyone been here recently?" ”
Wu Ansu was stunned for a moment, and said truthfully: "According to Ju Xiaoxing's parents, only some classmates in their department have come to see her recently......
"Is there a list?"
"Who's going to remember that? However, if necessary, it should be possible to find out...... What's wrong? Wu Ansu vaguely felt that Li Mengnan might have discovered something.
Li Mengnan's cheeks were bulging, like a greedy hamster, and he said vaguely: "If I'm not mistaken, the murderer is among these people who visited Ju Xiaoxing recently." ”
"How can you be so sure?" Wu Ansu was surprised.
Obviously, Li Mengnan poured cold water on her just now, but he actually had a new clue so quickly.
"It's Ju Xiaoxing who sued me." Li Mengnan stopped his gaze on the girl on the hospital bed for a moment, got up and said, "Obviously, that murderer must have learned the news that Ju Xiaoxing's condition is stable from some channels...... If you want to control this condition, only a hypnotist can do it.
The murderer obviously had little confidence in his hypnotism, or maybe he didn't know the limitations of hypnotism at all, and he was worried that the hypnotist who treated Ju Xiaoxing would restore the true memory hidden deep in the subconscious, so he decided to take a risk and set a logic bomb in Ju Xiaoxing's brain, destroying all her memories, and then sealing her hearing, so that she could no longer hear the outside world, so as to completely eliminate the hidden danger. ”
Li Mengnan's speculation is reasonable, since Ju Xiaoxing has begun to recover, the murderer hidden in the shadows does have a motive to kill people.
However, Wu Ansu still didn't understand a little bit, and asked, "Then how can you be sure that the murderer is among the people who have come to visit her recently?" Maybe the logic bomb was planted by the murderer a long time ago, in order to prepare for such a day? ”
"You think that because you don't understand the hypnosis technique of logic bombs." Li Mengnan shook his finger, "The logic bomb has quite strict requirements for the format of the detonation keywords - for example, if the hypnotist sets the keyword 'sorry', then only these three words can be completely connected, and synonyms like 'sorry, sorry, sorry' will not have the effect of detonating."
Because of this characteristic, hypnotists must be faced with two choices when using logic bombs - either set unique keywords for precise detonation, or set a wide range of keywords for fuzzy detonation.
If you choose the first type, because the keyword is unique, if you want to detonate the logic bomb, you must be executed by the hypnotist himself, or the keyword will be transferred to others in the form of sound and text to be executed indirectly, the time is accurate, but it is easy to leave clues.
If you choose the second option, although you can preset a wide range of keywords in advance, so that you can detonate the logic bomb by yourself without the hypnotist personally executing it, but because the range of keywords is too large, or the frequency of occurrence in daily life is too high, it is easy to lead to uncertainty in the detonation time.
It's like sawing off the legs of a chair, even though you know that anyone will fall if they sit on it, the problem is that there's no way to know for sure when someone will sit on it.
Now do you understand why I can be sure that the murderer is among the people who came to visit Ju Xiaoxing? ”
Although Li Mengnan did not directly explain this matter, Wu Ansu also understood.
How to set up the logic bomb is not the key, the key is the time difference.
Obviously, the murderer only started to kill after learning the news of Ju Xiaoxing's recovery, so whether it is a logic bomb that has been set up in advance or a logic bomb that has been temporarily planted, he must personally take action to achieve this purpose.
This also means that the criminals who know how to use hypnotism must be hidden among the people who have come to visit Ju Xiaoxing in the past few days.
Although the number of people is still as many as a dozen, the scope has shrunk enough this time, and it is obvious that the results are about to be called, if it can't be found out, Wu Ansu feels that he doesn't have to be a policeman anymore, it's better to marry honestly and have children.
At the moment, it seems that it is only a matter of time before the murderer is arrested, and Wu Ansu is still more concerned about Ju Xiaoxing's situation on the hospital bed.
"Then Ju Xiaoxing her...... Do you have a solution? ”
Wu Ansu also felt a little difficult to say this, Li Mengnan had repeatedly stated that he was not a professional hypnotherapist, not to mention that now Ju Xiaoxing's only channel for receiving hypnotic information has been maliciously closed, no matter how you think about it, there is no way to do it.
"You're asking the right person." Li Mengnan proudly took out a cigarette, suddenly remembered that this was a hospital ward, stuffed the cigarette back, took out a piece of chewing gum and stuffed it into his mouth, and said with a slight smile: "If you change to other hypnotists, in this case, they will definitely tell you to prepare for the aftermath directly!" Not to mention that their hearing is blocked, even if they are ordinary vegetative people, they are also blind......"
Li Mengnan's words are just talking about things, and he doesn't mean to look down on hypnotists.
The difference between an ancient illusionist and a modern hypnotist is actually a bit like the difference between inner and outer martial arts in ancient martial arts.
The same is to play tricks in the human brain, and the hypnotist's technique is from the outside in, through the human surface consciousness to affect the human subconscious.
The biggest feature of this method is that it is easy to learn, as long as the talent is acceptable, it can basically be achieved quickly in two or three years.
However, this outside-in approach also has its limitations, this hypnotic method relies too much on the human consciousness, and once the apparent consciousness cannot accept or process the information, the hypnotist's instructions are completely meaningless.
This is exactly the case with vegetative people.
Illusionists, on the other hand, use images and sounds to guide their consciousness like hypnotists, but their hypnosis of the brain does bypass the superficial consciousness and act directly on the subconscious.
In other words, even if the apparent consciousness like Ju Xiaoxing is no longer able to process any information, as long as the subconscious mind is still active, then the illusionist has a way to mobilize her subconscious to repair her apparent consciousness.
Of course, Ju Xiaoxing's hearing is closed, which is indeed a big trouble.
If you don't have hearing, you can't receive hypnotic information, and if you can't receive information, you can't lift the auditory blockage, which seems to be an endless loop.
But for Li Mengnan, it just needs to take a little effort - it is difficult to ensure that there are no deaf people in the audience watching the trick, so is the trick involving illusion still not performed?
"So you can cure it?" Wu Ansu was suddenly pleasantly surprised.
The most troublesome thing about vegetative people is that they have no self-awareness at all, even if Li Mengnan can't restore Ju Xiaoxing to normal, as long as she can respond to external stimuli, the next treatment will be much easier.
"It can be cured, but it ......" Li Mengnan looked a little hesitant, stared at Wu Ansu and said cautiously: "My treatment method may be a little special, you must ensure that no matter what I do, you can't beat me......"
