Chapter 070 - Witch Hazel (4)
Ms. Xu lives in another hospital, which is the only specialized hospital in Los Angeles that specializes in treating psychiatric patients. The reason why the Xu family sent Xu Ruixin to that hospital was because Xu Ruixin's mental state was indeed a little abnormal, and secondly, it was also to avoid Niu Xinyan's family.
After all, people in the school are spreading that the reason why Niu Xinyan fell from the building was because she was forced by Xu Ruixin to participate in the game of inviting pen fairies.
"She's Xu Ruixin?" Outside the ward, through the glass frame on the door, Chang Tai and Ding Dang saw Xu Ruixin sitting on the hospital bed.
She sat at the head of the bed with her hands on her knees, burying her entire head in her knees. Occasionally, she would raise her head and take a quick look in a certain direction, but after seeing it, there was a brief shudder.
"She is Xu Ruixin, a patient who has just been admitted to our hospital."
"And what's going on with her now?" Chang Tai asked Xu Ruixin's attending doctor.
"Her situation is paranoia and paranoia of victimization, and she always says that she sees ghosts. Look at our curtains, all of them are charms sent by her parents, saying that they were given by the master. In fact, they were all fooled by the fortune tellers on the street. As for me, although I haven't seen real spells, I've watched a few episodes of "Zombie Dao Chief", and I know that this charm must not be painted with cinnabar at the very least, but these charms are printed in batches at first glance. The doctor said and shook his head: "However, this situation is not special in our hospital, and after putting the charm on the curtain, her mood has basically stabilized." β
"Do we have many patients like Xu Ruixin in our hospital?"
"Not much!" The doctor said with certainty: "This old generation of feudal superstition has not seen anyone who says that they are afraid of ghosts and afraid of their own diseases, and now people generally receive a high degree of education, although they remain in awe of ghosts and gods, but in principle do not believe it." To put it bluntly, most of the people who are afraid of ghosts have ghosts in their hearts. Because she is Xu Ruixin's attending doctor, I also learned a little about her illness, saying that she played with pen fairies in school. Tell me about the current group of college students, what is wrong with having the curiosity to do something, you have to play this. β
"May I ask you, from a doctor's point of view, what is the matter with this pen fairy?" Ding Dang asked.
"From a doctor's point of view, I think that the so-called playing with the pen is actually a kind of paranoia caused by a person's mental state of high tension, which can also be understood as a hallucination in a high-pressure environment. In the same environment, some people can resist pressure, but some people will have various psychological diseases because they can't bear the pressure.
Let's take the game of Pen Fairy as an example, it sets a big premise for the player. What is the premise? That is, it is necessary to stay in a place where the deceased was alive, such as a teacher, a dormitory, etc., or to ask for something that belonged to the deceased during his lifetime. This premise itself is a kind of psychological suggestion, implying that if you start playing the game of pen fairy, then this deceased person may come to you because of your actions.
So what's next? You'll have to find a specific time, like 12 a.m., 1 a.m., whatever. Why this time? Because there are few people, it is quiet, and it has a mysterious atmosphere. It is also necessary to do this in a closed environment, where individuals sit in a circle and light a small lamp or candle.
Don't say that you are inviting ghosts by self-psychological suggestion, you just stay in this kind of environment and listen to others tell a ghost story, you will feel cold and creepy behind your back. Besides, most of the people who play this game are extremely curious girls, and women are born with more emotional cells than men, and they are better at thinking and fantasizing.
To put it simply, most of the people who play this game of inviting pen fairies are scaring themselves. β
"Is it possible that they will see ghosts?" Ding Dang asked.
"Yes, but this ghost is not visible to the naked eye." The doctor explained: "People in a completely closed, specific high-pressure environment will have some hallucinations. For example, some people who freeze to death will see fire before they die, and they will see something similar to warmth or even very hot, so they will take off their clothes in an unconscious state. There are also some elderly people who are about to pass away, and during the time they are about to die, they will see their deceased relatives or friends, and think that they have come to pick them up. There are also some that will see bull heads and horse faces, black and white impermanence or something. In fact, these are hallucinations, hallucinations of his own making. β
"So, Xu Ruixin may have really seen a ghost, but that ghost is something that no one else can see, and she imagined it herself?"
"Clinically, yes." The doctor glanced into the ward: "We tested Xu Ruixin's brain waves, and found that her brain waves had some abnormal fluctuations, which may be because of these abnormal fluctuations that caused her to see something terrible." β
"Doctor, have you ever seen a ghost?"
"As much as I would love to see that brother, unfortunately, I haven't seen him until now." The doctor pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose: "However, when I was in medical school, I had the experience of scaring myself. I remember when I was a freshman, because I had just started to get into medicine, there were too many things to memorize and understand, and most of them were obscure, so I would often read books in the study room until late.
One night, when the power went out in the school, I went back to the dormitory with my books, and when I was halfway there, I saw a skeleton moving on the opposite teaching building, and when I looked at it, it also stopped to look at me. I felt like my heart was beating half a beat. Later, I found out that it was the teacher's preparation in the teaching building for the next day's class, and the skeleton was a real skeleton, which was normally placed in the storage room. Because of the need for class, the teacher moved it to the office, but the power went out halfway through, and I just happened to see it. Thanks to my strong psychological quality, I would have to make a big joke about it. β
The doctor said, putting his hand in the pocket of his white coat: "That, I won't be too long-winded, if you want to see Xu Ruixin, you can go in now, but I don't think you can necessarily ask anything." According to her current mental state, she still can't tell what is realistic and what is illusory, and it may be difficult to communicate. Well, that's my office over there, if there's any problem, you can call me in time. β
Chang Tai and Ding Dang entered the ward.
Xu Ruixin raised her head, first looked at them with a pair of misty eyes, and then laughed.
"Black and white, you're here to take me away, aren't you?"
"Black and white impermanence?" Ding Dang took a look at her and Chang Tai, one was really dressed in black, the other was dressed in white, the man was left and the woman was right, it was really "black and white impermanence", but they didn't care about the things of the underworld for the "black and white impermanence", only the things of the yang world.
"Yes, we are black and white, but we are not here to take you away, but to take the ghost away." Ding Dang had an idea, and followed Xu Ruixin's words: "Can you still see that ghost?" β
"Ghosts?" Xu Ruixin buried her head again: "I can see it, but she is not here now." β
"We're here to get her, can you tell us who she is and where she is now?"
"You are black and white, how can you not know who she is?" Xu Ruixin curled himself into a ball.
"Of course we know who she is, but we're not sure if the one you see is the same one we're going to capture. Therefore, Xu Ruixin, as a ghost in the underworld, we feel that it is very necessary for you to cooperate with our arrest work. β
"It's Guo Hua, our senior sister Guo Hua from our normal school, the one who fell to her death some time ago." Xu Ruixin's expression became weird: "She crawled out of the ground, with a lot of blood on her face, and her neck, hands and feet were twisted like monsters. I knew she must have been broken and broken, that's why she would be like that after she died. β
"Why did she find you?"
"Because I recruited her." Xu Ruixin shuddered: "It's my fault, I shouldn't have called her out, I thought I could make an agreement with her, I just wanted her to take Niu Xinyan's dead girl away, but she got angry, she wanted to take all of us away." β
"I said how she slipped away from our underworld, it turns out that you did a good thing." Ding Dang deliberately straightened his face: "Classmate Xu Ruixin, you have to help us catch her." Now, tell us where we are going to find her. β
"In the classroom, in that classroom."
"How did she show up where she was?"
"Because the person she likes is in that classroom." Xu Ruixin smiled: "I also knew about this from other places." My senior sister has always secretly liked the school grass in our school, but unfortunately the school grass doesn't look down on her, and the school grass likes Sister Wanwan. Guo Hua once plucked up the courage to confess to the school grass, but as a result, she was severely humiliated by the school grass in that classroom, and she almost committed suicide by cutting her wrists in that classroom. Of course, she didn't die, she just wanted to scare and scare the school grass. Soon after that incident, she moved out of school. One is because they are about to graduate, they can go out to find a job internship, and the other is because she is afraid that others will laugh at her. β
"And then?"
"We originally wanted to find the rental house where she lived before her death, but we were scared, so we chose that classroom. In the beginning, none of us knew what to expect, but we really had to recruit her. Xu Ruixin continued to smile: "I'm amazing, I can actually summon ghosts from the underworld." β
"Then do you know where your sister Xu Ruina and Zhang Wanwan went?"
"I was dragged away, and I was dragged to the underworld by Guo Hua. It's so scary, she is also coming to take me away, I don't want to go to the underworld, I don't want to be a ghost, I don't want to be such an ugly ghost. Xu Ruixin began to dance, and her mental state became worse.
"I'll go find a doctor!" Ding Dang rushed out as he spoke, and as soon as he reached the door, he bumped into a person.
