Chapter 2: The "Demon" in His Body
"Before September 8, Shi Zuo was an ordinary person. Life is business as usual. It wasn't until the early morning of the same day that the nasty woman came uninvited, sneaked into the house, and forced me to become a kyogen by means of deception and abduction. ”
"September 9th. Threatened, I began to learn the techniques of Kyogen Master. On the same day, a neighbor and classmate, Anhe, broke into his home uninvited, and lured the annoying woman by wagging his tail and begging for mercy to force me to help track down the incident of her being followed in recent months. ”
"On September 10, the annoying woman used my WeChat to order a KFC takeaway and didn't pay back. The amount of debt is 74.5 yuan. On the same day, during the investigation of the incident of being followed in Anhe City, it was discovered that the stalker was a beggar......"
“……”
"September 12th. The context of the event is clear. Anhe's father, An Yiwen, is a stationery merchant who disappeared half a year ago after lying about a business trip...... The real reason is that the stationery company that runs it has been defrauded by the syndicate and is saddled with huge debts...... The mastermind behind the scenes is a professional fraudster named Enobayashi......"
Shi Zuo's hand that was writing suddenly stopped.
A pair of white and delicate hands quietly rested on his shoulders at some point.
"Shi Zuocai, who is the 'nasty woman'-"
Liu Yanshi dragged out the last three words for a long time, and his smiling tone was murderous.
Shi Zuo closed the notebook. With a frowning brow, he asked:
"When did you come here?"
"From the time of 'Shi Zuo is an ordinary person'." Liu Yanshi smiled playfully and raised the plastic bag in his hand: inside were freshly cooked fritters and soy milk.
"I don't eat greasy things."
Liu Yanshi pursed his lips, broke off a small piece of fritters and stuffed them into his mouth, and said vaguely:
"The test paper is always only two-thirds, but it has always maintained the closest grade average; Enter the school gate at 7:30 on time every day, go home directly after class, live a more disciplined life than a robot, and don't let anyone see that you are unusual...... Are such people embarrassed to call themselves 'ordinary'? ”
Shi Zuocai replied indifferently:
"I broke into someone's door without permission, and used indiscriminate means to coax the locksmith to pick off my door lock, and gave myself a new key; I treat other people's homes as if they were my own, and even privately investigate my habits of daily life...... Isn't such a person a 'nasty woman'? ”
"It's rude to respond to a question with a question, didn't your Chinese teacher teach you?" Liu Yanshi raised an index finger and shook it in front of Shi Zuocai, unable to see any dissatisfaction after being choked, and said with a smile:
"And don't forget that you're still under observation...... If you don't coordinate well with the 'demon' in your body, sooner or later you will become a real psychopath. As your master, you still need to have this basic concern. ”
Shi Zuocai suddenly felt a little irritable, but he didn't speak.
Because he's already said a lot.
In fact, he had just said more than he would normally say in a whole day.
For the past two months of the summer vacation, he has been huddled in this 120-square-meter apartment, living a life of no social interaction and isolation from the world.
He has lived this way ever since his adoptive parents died in a car accident when he was eleven years old.
Taciturn, tranquil.
And the woman named Liu Yanshi, who seemed to have an innocent and pitiful face, turned his stagnant life upside down after intruding into his life.
Thinking of this, he finally couldn't hold back, and choked coldly:
"My life would have been ideal without you."
As soon as the words fell. Outside his apartment, where no one had ever visited, there was a knock on the door.
Liu Yanshi looked at him face to face, paused, and smiled happily:
"Your ideal life is coming to an end!"
-------------------
Short.
The face is delicate.
Nervous.
This girl is another source of trouble for Shi Zuocai. Her name is Anhe City.
Seeing Liu Yanshi appear in Shi Zuocai's apartment, Anhe City also looked very surprised.
But the former is naturally like the real owner of the house:
"What wind is blowing you? Xiao An. Don't you have to go to work today? ”
An He City was stunned, and then took a deep breath:
"Uh...... That one...... There was still a little time before work, and my mother just made a drawer of xiaolongbao, so I thought about giving it to my classmates to try...... Yes! I don't mean anything else, just that...... Because there are a lot of classmates when things have really troubled recently, ah, Liu, you are too...... That's why I thought......"
Anhe City worked on the draft in his heart for a long time, and he said it in a mess, but he still didn't finish it in the end.
Liu Yanshi couldn't help but laugh and interjected:
"Shi Zuocai is not in the living room now, no matter how much you say, he won't be able to hear it."
An Heshi was stunned for a moment, his face turned red, and he asked in an embarrassed whisper:
"That'...... Is Shi Zuocai's classmate at home? ”
"He's transforming in the toilet right now."
"Oh." Anhe City responded dumbfoundedly, and immediately reacted:
"Uh...... What's changing? ”
There was a sound of the door opening in the bathroom, and Shi Zuocai walked out with wet messy hair with a flirtatious smile in his eyes.
"Morning, kitten."
His demeanor was already similar to that of his previous autistic and taciturn image.
- but it is the same as "Lan Silin" who came out of the bank yesterday.
"Whoa." Liu Yanshi pointed at him with his finger, shrugged his shoulders again, and rolled his lovely eyes:
"Transformed."
-------------------
Coordinated multiple personality disorder.
A mental illness that exists only in theory.
People often see a lot of similar examples in novels and movies: someone who suffers from mental illness may be a diligent male white-collar worker when talking to you one moment, and the next moment, that person's temperament will change drastically, claiming to be a cleaning aunt everywhere.
And no matter what others question, the reply given by that person seamlessly proves that he/she is who he or she says he or she is.
This psychotropic condition is often misunderstood as "schizophrenia." ”
But in reality, it has a more specialized name, multiple personality disorder.
In short, it is a state in which two or even more "souls" share the same body.
In normal people with multiple personalities, each personality has independent experiences and memories with each other, and cannot share memories with each other.
But the coordinated multiple personality is the absolute exception......
Each of their personalities is able to communicate freely with each other, even share a body through negotiation, and can even complete the transformation of personality with independent consciousness.
Shi Zuocai is such a patient with "Coordination Multiple Personality Disorder".
His original personality was taciturn and passive.
And the other personality, in Liu Yanshi's words, the word "demon" could not be more appropriate.
