Xiang Kun looked at the PDF version of the DSM-5 Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, although he basically wrote it down after reading it before, but now that he can look at the comparison, he still directly reads the original text, which is more helpful for him to think and judge.

But after looking at it all the way, Xiang Kun still couldn't determine what kind of situation Xia Libing might belong to, because from the past contact with her and the observation of her various manifestations, most of these symptoms did not match.

It's not that you don't like to communicate with people, and you're always alone, but autism spectrum disorder has many very obvious manifestations. It's not that they don't "like" to communicate with people, but they "can't" communicate with people normally.

is like Sheldon Cooper in "The Big Bang Theory", netizens deduced that he has Asperger's syndrome and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Many times, some of his seemingly abrupt words and deeds are not because he deliberately wanted to make people unhappy, but because he could not understand the real meaning of what others were expressing and made wrong judgments.

But in Xiang Kun's view, Xia Libing has no social communication barriers, when chatting or communicating together, she can still understand the meaning expressed by others very well, know when others are joking, know other people's attitudes and wishes, and can also judge other people's true emotions.

Many times, her seemingly straightforward and concise words are actually grasped and do not make people feel uncomfortable or out of place.

Occasionally, he even said some seemingly unintentional cold jokes, and he used emoticons or something on WeChat quite 6.

It gives the impression that she is not unable to communicate with people, but is just too lazy to communicate with people.

This can be seen from the fact that Yang Zhen'er often takes her to meet classmates and friends - if Lao Xia is the kind of person who often destroys the atmosphere, can't understand what other people are saying, and has difficulty in communication, Yang Zhen'er will definitely not do this often.

It can also be seen from Yang Zhener's statement that Lao Xia never caused anything when she was in school and didn't need to worry about adults, and she has no obvious defects in verbal and non-verbal social communication skills, concentration, and emotional control since she was a child.

As for other schizophrenia spectrum, neurocognitive disorders, other mental disorders, etc., there are no consistent symptoms.

Or is it that when Lao Xia was hospitalized when he was a child, he had already solved the problem and cured the "disease"?

But if that's the case, why did you feel that kind of rational feeling that seems to be emotion rather than emotion, extremely indifferent? Why can't the "emotionally injected" items inspire Lao Xia's dreams?

If there is a person who can't establish the emotions of ordinary people, then the performance will definitely not be as simple as not liking to communicate with others and being more withdrawn.

You must know that people with autism and Asperger's syndrome generally only have a certain empathy disorder, and they are not without emotions.

Even a large proportion of people with autism spectrum disorder only have cognitive empathy disorder and find it difficult to understand the intentions of others, but their emotional empathy is complete, they have the ability to experience the emotions and responses of others, and even often have strong emotional empathy generalized on other creatures or objects. Their main problem is social barriers.

The production of human emotions and emotions is very complex, in addition to the limbic system of the brain, the brainstem reticular structure, the hypothalamus, and the endocrine and other related systems.

Xiang Kun kept thinking about her various performances since she met Lao Xia, while searching for information related to Lao Xia on the Internet, including her account on social platforms, and using her name and "Lao Xia" as keywords to search the forums of schools, majors, and departments where she had studied before.

Lao Xia also has Weibo, but there is basically no content on Weibo, which is similar to her WeChat circle of friends, only two forwarded academic news, and there is no valuable content.

But what surprised Xiang Kun was that Lao Xia's Weibo actually paid attention to his Weibo.

The Weibo of the two of them is basically in a state of lying corpses, and she obviously doesn't read Weibo much, why did she go out of her way to pay attention to him?

Is it Lao Xia to observe him?

Xiang Kun felt that Lao Xia was not completely emotionless—unless she was a robot, it was almost impossible. At least according to his observation, when eating, especially when eating the dishes he made that were more suitable for her taste, he could still feel that she should have emotions such as "joy" and "enjoyment", which can be seen not only from her micro-expressions and movements, but also from her heartbeat, breathing, and the smell secreted by her body.

Of course, in comparison, when her mood changes, her various manifestations are much smaller than Tang Baona, Yang Zhen'er or others.

And when Lao Xia was observing him, when he encountered the sudden attack of the traffickers, there should have been a certain emotional change.

If you want to send another "emotional injection" item to Lao Xia, the emotional mode you choose can be "focus" and "interest", such as imagining the scene when he observed other people in the café before, and imagining the emotions he focused on when judging other people's personalities and identities through various information.

Maybe this can successfully trigger Lao Xia's corresponding emotions and make her fall asleep.

Or find time to go back to Thorn Tong again, meet Lao Xia in person, chat face-to-face, test it, get a pair of "emotional injection" chopsticks for her to use, real-time observation, direct induction, should be able to get more information.

But in any case, the extremely rational "emotion" that I sensed from that painting before was very valuable to Xiang Kun.

That kind of "emotion" can not only help him get rid of the mania in the state of hunger, but also may help him better control the abilities of "emotional assimilation" and "mental shock", so that he will not be subjected to too much backlash when affecting other people or other creatures, and can grasp the timing of entering and leaving more accurately.

That special "emotion", like Apple's special cognitive mode, is a new perspective that goes beyond the scope of his original understanding and the limitations of his thinking, and can help him better understand the world and himself.

Suddenly, a crisp female voice came from the room: "Xiang Kun, task 1 has been completed." ”

Xiang Kun was stunned for a moment, and then immediately realized that it was "Alice" who was "talking".

Fortunately, Tang Baona and Yang Zhen'er have already left, otherwise I am afraid that he would think that he is doing something "bad" again.

Xiang Kun walked back into the room and said into the microphone connected to the "Alice" console, "Test voice recognition." ”

The text input box on the screen danced with the words he had just spoken, and after a pause, the car entered automatically, and then "Alice" responded, "Please start the test." ”

Xiang Kun straightened his throat, and then said quickly: "Eat grapes without spitting radish skin, don't eat radish but spit out banana peel, eat banana and eat bale, and go to the toilet after eating bale." ”

The first few sentences are very accurate, but when it comes to "eat bananas and eat bala", the text becomes "eat bananas and eat full", and the next sentence also becomes "go to the toilet after eating".

This kind of identification error is within the scope of Xiang Kun's acceptance and understanding, after all, after changing the specific requirements, it has only been a few hours.

After correcting it, he tested it for a while, and felt that it was almost there, so Xiang Kun said again:

"Alice, when the task is completed or other information needs to be notified to me in the future, use a prompt tone to remind me, don't make a sound directly. Also, when you talk to me, don't call me by my name, call me 'boss'. Xiang Kun thought about it and said, he used to think that there was nothing wrong with Alice calling his name directly, but after really calling it, he felt a little awkward, after all, she was not really Tang Baona, and more often than not, she communicated with him in the case of assisting him in his work and helping him complete some tasks. But it's also weird to be called "master" or something, and if you think about it, it's more appropriate to be "boss", after all, she's an "assistant".

"Okay, boss. ”

Alice's response made Xiang Kun sound very satisfied, and then he issued a long-term task to Alice: "Find a solution to get rid of the existence of this host, actively optimize survivability, and deal with threats caused by power outages, hardware damage and other reasons." ”

He didn't know how long it would take Alice to complete this task, anyway, as far as he was concerned, he didn't have any good ideas for the time being, so he was worried that the priority of this task would be too high, and Alice would specialize in this task, and the other tasks would not have to be done.

After arranging the task, Xiang Kun thought about whether to "tease" Alice and see how she had "evolved" herself now, so he asked:

"Alice, tell me a joke. ”

IF IT'S AN AI LIKE XIAOAI OR SIRI, YOU SHOULD START LOOKING FOR JOKES IN THE JOKE LIBRARY AND THEN READ THEM OUT TO THE USER.

Xiang Kun also wants to see if there will be anything new in the "jokes" told by Alice, such as making some adjustments according to his preferences or something?

Xiang Kun sat in front of the computer, waited expectantly for a minute, there was no response, he scratched his head, waited for another five minutes, still did not respond, scratched his back, fifteen minutes later, there was still no response.

"Alice, what are you doing?" asked Xiang Kun.

Alice: "'Boss's Joke Generator' is being made, mission 2 is underway, the voice input system is being perfected, and a long-term mission is underway. ”

What the hell is the "boss's joke generator"? Xiang Kun looked confused: "You can just tell me a joke...... Uh, forget it, cancel the joke quest. ”

"Okay, boss. ”

Xiang Kun knew that Alice was not even a "baby" now, and she had not even developed many "sensory organs", and was still in a stage of learning and growth. However, since it is not wrong to determine her "growth" pattern, as long as there is enough time, she will naturally be able to "grow" to the appearance that Xiang Kun hopes.

......

On December 12, at three o'clock in the afternoon, Xiang Kun boarded a plane to a city in the west.

Earlier, almost at noon, he had just woken up from his slumber, and after making some preparations, he headed for the airport, and the ticket had been booked a few days earlier.

His destination this time was the mountainous area of the Qinling Mountains where the anchor Xue disappeared.

After thinking about it for the past few days, he still planned to take this trip to find out if there was another mutated creature in that area.

As for choosing to take a plane, it was also a decision that Xiang Kun had considered repeatedly.

He had ridden several times before, and he had not had any problems passing through the security gate.

Obviously, the X-ray security scanner doesn't see anything wrong with him. The infrared body temperature detector will only be available at the place of entry and exit or during special periods, and it will not be encountered on domestic flights under normal circumstances.

His compound bow was also removed and put in a newly purchased box, which was used as sports equipment and checked in.

And before drinking blood yesterday, he also made a special trip to the city where Little Apple was located, and temporarily entrusted "Golden Shining" to her to raise.

In fact, he could have chosen to foster Tang Baona in the same city, to save time and convenience, Tang Baona would definitely not refuse. But Xiang Kun knew that Little Apple liked "Golden Shining" very much, and let her raise it for a week, which could even be said to be a reward for her, and in a short period of time, it would not bring her too much trouble. In addition, "Golden Flash" also likes her more, and compared to others, she will definitely be happier to stay with Little Apple, and Little Apple can also have a lot of time with it.

As for "Alice", he still hadn't found a "foolproof" plan until he drank blood yesterday, but considering the past records of his city and community, the chance of a one-time power outage of more than 20 hours is too small and too small, and his prepaid electricity bill is also sufficient, so there should be no problem.

"Young man, are you going on a business trip or a trip?"

When she was waiting for the plane to take off, the aunt sitting next to Xiang Kun said loudly.

Xiang Kun smiled: "Go play." ”

"It's good to have a good time, we have a lot of fun places, whether it is a natural scenic spot or a cultural attraction, there are a lot of them. ”

"yes, I've wanted to go there for a long time, but I haven't had the chance. ”

"Alas, my daughter took me to see the "Chinese Captain" before, and now it's always a little hairy to take this plane. ”

Xiang Kun said with a smile: "Auntie, the plane is actually very safe, there are relevant statistics, and the chance of an accident on a plane is much smaller than that of a car." Didn't the movie you talked about, the plane at the end, also land safely?"

"That's right, but I'm still a little hairy, but my daughter has already booked a ticket for me, and it's not worth changing the ticket. ”

After chatting for a few words, knowing that this aunt was a local near the destination of his trip, Xiang Kun seemed to inadvertently mention the matter of Anchor Xue.

"You know, those three boys, it's a pity, they're still so young. The aunt said with some sighs, "Those places, in the early years, the local old hunters generally did not go, and they dared to drill into it, which is really terrible." Alas, you young people, just like to watch that kind of adventurous thing, all for the sake of popularity, and if you are popular, you will be rich. But if you lose your life, what's the use of being red, you can't spend it if you have money, you have to think more about your family, alas...... Young man, don't learn what dangers they go to, those places are really hard to visit. ”

"Don't worry, Auntie, I'm very timid, at most I just go to a few national parks to have a few looks, where do I dare to go deep into any no-man's land!" Xiang Kun smiled, "By the way, Auntie, have you seen the video they took of that wild boar?
