Roommate split personality how to do?
Chapter 1 Heard about Yu Xiaoyu's logic, but still felt speechless.
At this time, Li Dongxing happened to push the door in from the outside, and after hearing the second half of the sentence, he asked, "What's a waste of time?"
Cheng Yan grabbed Mr. Tian Zhu and hurriedly said, "Mr. Tian Zhu is saying that the class he took is boring."
Li Dongxing was so concerned about Yu Xiaoyu's affairs and had worked hard for a month, if he knew that Yu Xiaoyu was treating his hard work as a waste of time, he might be hit hard.
"Hey, what a beautiful grass, did your little girlfriend give it to you?" Mu Mu came back by coincidence, caught sight of the flowerpot in Tian Zhujun's hand, and yelled.
Li Dongxing's face darkened immediately when he thought of something.
Cheng Yan couldn't help but give Mu Mu a sharp look. Sometimes he felt from the bottom of his heart that the two hundred and five senior sisters should share his senior brother's attention.
"Yu Xiaoyu is not coming." Li Dongxing came to the conclusion easily.
Cheng Yan had a stomach full of comforting words: "After all, she is a sophomore in high school, and she is busy with studies..."
Li Dongxing: "I'll go get her back."
Cheng Yan: "..."
This nosy business seems to be getting more and more irresistible.
Li Dongxing frowned: "It's the same as what senior brother advised me before. She also needs to face the reality and actively treat her."
Tian Zhujun was on the sidelines repeatedly echoing, Cheng Yan knew that once Li Dongxing made up his mind, he would be a master who could not be pulled back, so he had to surrender, and agreed to go with Li Dongxing to persuade Yu Xiaoyu.
Until the two actually followed the address to find Yu Xiaoyu's house, Cheng Yan still felt terribly awkward.
The address was given by Mr. Tian Zhu, and Yu Xiaoyu said he would not see him again, so he was too embarrassed to put on a face, and he was busy taking care of his grandma, so he gave Li Dongxing and Cheng Cheng this glorious and difficult task Word.
Yu Xiaoyu's family lives in the urban area of Jiangcheng City. From the perspective of the location and the construction of the community, the conditions are quite good. The market price is at least twice as expensive as Cheng Yan's school district house.Her family lived on the top floor of a small high-rise, and it seemed that, as she said, the family was not short of money.
Arriving at the door of Yu Xiaoyu's house in a blink of an eye, Cheng Yan hesitated and pressed the doorbell.
The communicator on the side lit up, and a middle-aged woman's voice came from inside: "Who is it?"
Cheng Yan offered his prepared remarks: "The teacher from Jiangcheng University... came to find Yu Xiaoyu. Is she at home?"
As he spoke, he took out his work card and shook it towards the camera.
The anti-theft door was opened a crack, someone peeked out half of his face, and sized up Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing.
Five seconds later, the door opened.
Cheng Yan saw that the person standing at the door was a strange woman, but he didn't expect the other person to open the door so easily, so he was slightly taken aback.
"Ms. Cheng and Mr. Li?" The woman smiled, "Xiaoyu told me that you are helping her make up lessons. So, the teachers still make home visits?"
From the shape of her eyebrows, eyes and face, it can be seen that she is very similar to Yu Xiaoyu, so she should be Yu Xiaoyu's mother without asking.
Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing looked at each other, and then got off the donkey along the slope: "Yes, home visit."
Yu Xiaoyu's mother let them into the house unsuspectingly, and said while pouring tea: "It's a pity that Xiaoyu is not at home, that girl, these days, no one is seen after school every day, it's not a big Saturday, and it's early in the morning I'm not at home, and I don't know where to go. The two teachers are really sorry."
As soon as he heard that Yu Xiaoyu was not at home, Cheng Yan thought about getting up and leaving.If you can't even see anyone, how can you persuade her to turn around.
Unexpectedly, Li Dongxing sat down, and said first: "It's okay. I don't know if it's convenient for you, would you like to chat with us?"
Yu Xiaoyu's mother was taken aback, stroked her hair, and said, "Yes, yes, teacher, just say it."
Cheng Yan was thinking about how to go around and find out the news, when he heard Li Dongxing bluntly tell the truth.
"Mother Xiaoyu, we are actually teachers at the Mental Health Center of Jiangcheng University." He cut straight to the point, "Student Xiaoyu came to us because she had some mental troubles. She often feels like a fish. I don't know if you know this. something?"
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyu's mother's expression changed instantly.
She put her hands on her knees, subconsciously tightened the fabric of the skirt, and said in a jiffy, "The child is naughty and keeps talking nonsense, teacher, don't worry too much..."
Li Dongxing said with a serious face: "This is not naughty. Xiaoyu is coming soon, and she knows exactly what she is talking about. Mother Xiaoyu, your daughter is likely to suffer from a serious mental disorder, which requires regular treatment. You must Address this issue early on.”
Xiaoyu's mother's complexion changed drastically, she sat stiffly for a few minutes, then stood up suddenly.
Cheng Yan almost thought she was planning to chase someone away.
He glanced at Li Dongxing, wondering what kind of medicine this kid was selling in his gourd, why hadn't he spoken so directly before, without any room for buffering.
"The tea is cold, let me pour you another cup." Luckily, Xiao Yuma just stood up and poured water. After pouring a cup of tea for Li Dongxing and Cheng Yan each, she poured another cup for herself before sitting down on the sofa again. .She took a sip of hot tea, she seemed to have calmed down a little, raised her head and asked anxiously: "Well, if you have a mental illness, will it affect your college entrance?"
The topic changed so quickly that even Li Dongxing didn't react, and opened his eyes slightly.
Cheng Yan quickly said: "It's okay, there are some restrictions on the majors you can apply for at most. Mental disorders are the same as other diseases, and there is nothing to be ashamed of. If you can treat them well, it may not affect your normal life. Your daughter can still become a child." A wonderful, useful person to society."
He finished speaking in one breath, and his tone was far from sincere.
The back of Li Dongxing's hands resting on the sofa trembled, and he seemed to realize that at least half of Cheng Yan's words were meant for him.
Xiaoyu's mother seemed to have taken a reassurance, and finally she was willing to let go: "Well... Xiaoyu, she has some small problems. This child, always yelling that she is a fish and not a human, I was really scared at first, and her uncle Cough cough, it was her stepfather who talked to her many times and told her not to talk nonsense. But then she became more and more serious, sometimes she had to take a bath five or six times a day, or soaked in the bathtub for hours and refused to Come out. I was afraid that something would happen to her, so I forced her to get up, but she still..."
Cheng Yan said, "I can't breathe."
"That's right, that's right." Xiaoyu's mother said with lingering fear, "I saw her struggling so hard, I really thought she was seriously ill and she was about to die, she was so anxious that she almost shed tears, so she hurriedly called the ambulance, but nothing came. Thinking of her sitting in the bathtub for a while, and waiting for the ambulance to come, she was already acting as usual. Her uncle criticized her, saying that she could no longer pretend to be so scary. I... I don't blame her, but I just feel that I was relieved, but even more frightened... this child, what happened to this child?"
Li Dongxing asked: "At what age did she get sick?"
Mother Xiaoyu thought for a while, raised her hand to cover her cheek, and said weakly: "I don't know. I'm sorry for her. She wasn't in this city when she was in elementary school. At that time, her father, my ex-husband and I... The relationship was not good. I thought about it later, and I didn’t care enough for her. Later we divorced, and I brought her to Jiangcheng. After about a year, I realized that something was wrong with her. We took her to I saw many doctors and went to the temple to burn incense several times...but she just won't get better."
Cheng Yan could tell that it wasn't that the family didn't care about their daughter, but that they were going in the wrong direction.
In Yu Xiaoyu's situation, no matter how active the physical examination or praying to God and Buddha, it was just a waste of effort.
Li Dongxing continued to ask: "Apart from relying on water, does she have any other abnormal behavior?"
Mother Xiaoyu frowned, stood up, and said, "Do you want to see her room yourself?"
Cheng Yan hesitated for a moment: "Is this inappropriate?"
Anyway, she is a 17-year-old girl, he and Li Dongxing are two big men, it is not easy to break into her boudoir while she is not at home, right?
Mother Xiaoyu raised her right hand, put it on her left forearm, shook her head and said, "Just... just take a look, she won't care. Because I really... can't tell."
Cheng Yan quickly understood what she meant.
Yu Xiaoyu's house is a small duplex, and Yu Xiaoyu's room lives on the second floor. When Xiaoyu's mother opened the door, even he couldn't help being shocked.
The room really didn't look like a girl's boudoir.
Yu Xiaoyu's room is extremely dark, so dark that in broad daylight, you can hardly see your fingers. Cheng Yan thought that there were thick curtains blocking the sunlight, but after a closer look, he found that the windows were blocked by rows of plants. Most of them are vines such as pothos, with more luxuriant branches and leaves in one pot, and the plump leaves hang down vertically, layered and intertwined, just like a green waterfall, covering most of the wall airtightly, and even part of it is spread on the ground. On the bed below, it was inextricably entangled with the quilt.
Not only that, the room is extremely damp, just standing at the door, it's like a fine spring rain, and the nose is full of wet smell with earthy smell.Cheng Yan soon discovered that it was due to the dozens of humidifiers placed in the room. Even if Yu Xiaoyu was not around, these humidifiers were still working tirelessly, spewing out puffs of white water vapor.
At first glance, the whole room is shrouded in white mist, and even the hanging green vines are slightly swayed by the blowing. Not only is it not full of vitality as it should be, but it is full of ghosts because of the coldness of the room.
It was already rainy in Jiangcheng in autumn, and with the addition of such battles, after only staying for half a minute, Cheng Yan felt sticky on his forearms, and felt a chill in his heart.
At this moment, there seemed to be an extra hand on his arm.
Cheng Yan's hair stood on end, and he turned his head so hastily that he almost twisted his neck.
It turned out that the person who arrested him was Li Dongxing, Cheng Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and asked under his throat, "What's wrong?"
"Lili is scared." Li Dongxing whispered, leaning on Cheng Yan.
☆, she is a fish ([-])
Cheng Yan was startled, he didn't expect Lili to appear at this time, so he quickly glanced to the side, saw that Xiaoyu's mother was still standing at the door and didn't dare to look into the house, so he relieved himself.
"It's okay, don't be afraid." While comforting softly, he secretly patted the hand holding his forearm, thinking about how to coax Lili back.
The two of them are still talking in someone else's house. It's a teacher at Jiangcheng University. If they accidentally show a little girlish demeanor, the reliable image they just worked hard to create will collapse in an instant.At first glance, Xiaoyu's mother is not too enlightened. Who would have thought and accepted that this is a girl's soul temporarily living in Li Dongxing's body, and would only treat him as a sissy pervert.
Lili nodded knowingly, grabbed Cheng Yan's fingertips, and said timidly, "Xiao Yu is also scared."
Cheng Yan was puzzled: "What do you mean?"
He had heard that people with Dissociative Identity Disorder could easily split into new personalities. At first, he had some scruples about Li Dongxing's contact with Yu Xiaoyu, because he was worried that Yu Xiaoyu's hysteria would further affect Li Dongxing, and would cause the whole The fifth personality came out.
Fortunately, things are not as bad as he thought.
Lili raised her other hand and hugged her shoulder, and said, "I... I don't know. I just think that no girl would like to live in such a gloomy and damp room. Xiaoyu is actually quite She loves beauty, and she definitely doesn't like this kind of musty feeling, you see, she even put away all the hair ties on purpose."
Cheng Yan followed Lili's gaze, and saw a row of bookshelves nailed above the desk in the corner. On the shelves were a pile of mathematics and computer books, and several transparent storage boxes. Inside the boxes were many colorful books. Hair bands, and other accessories that girls like.
This row of shelves is the only corner in the whole room that is far away from the humidifier. It seems that Yu Xiaoyu really intends to avoid letting these precious things of hers get wet.
An idea came to Cheng Yan's mind.
Maybe, Yu Xiaoyu doesn't like being a fish?Judging from the results of the previous EEG data analysis, she did not have any liking for the ocean and water.
Then she insisted on forcing herself to be inseparable from water, could it be out of... some kind of self-punishment?
He frowned, turned to Xiaoyu's mother, and asked, "Has your daughter lived in a place with many flowers and plants before?"
If you simply want to shade the sun, why choose vines like dills that need to be cared for, just draw a curtain or stick a blackout window paper and you're done.
Xiaoyu's mother thought about it carefully, and said: "When Xiaoyu was a child, she lived with her grandmother in her hometown, where...there was a pretty big greenhouse."
Cheng Yan raised his eyebrows, instinctively thinking that the greenhouse might be the key factor, and asked, "Is the greenhouse still there?"
Xiaoyu's mother was silent for a while, then said in a low voice, "After her grandma passed away, the old house was sold."
Cheng Yan was a little disappointed, and continued to ask a few more questions, hoping to see if he could get some old photos or something, so that he could test Yu Xiaoyu's reaction in the future.
Xiaoyu's mother faltered a few words, obviously unwilling to go into details.
The more this was the case, the more Cheng Yan felt that something was wrong, but he was not willing to force others, so he planned to leave after a few polite words.
At this time, the door lock downstairs rang, and Yu Xiaoyu came back.
The girl was wearing a thin sports jacket, and her whole body was soaking wet, as if she just got out of the river.
"Xiaoyu!" Xiaoyu's mother immediately yelled, pursed her lips, and glanced nervously at Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing who were brought upstairs by her.
"Mom." Yu Xiaoyu raised her head, glanced lightly, and saw the other two people upstairs, "Mr. Li, Mr. Cheng."
Her tone was unwavering, as if it was no accident that there were two more people in the family. After saying hello, she went upstairs, with her wet ponytail flicking behind her head, leaving a small spot on the ground with every step she took. beach water stains.
The closer he got, the more clearly Cheng Yan could see that Yu Xiaoyu was not only drenched, but his face was even bloodless, and his body was still shaking slightly, it seemed that he was very cold.
Xiaoyu's mother wanted to hold her back: "Why did it happen again..."
"Mom, I'm tired." Yu Xiaoyu dodged, and the three of them slid into the room directly at the door.
She jumped onto the bed in a wet suit, pulled up the same half-wet quilt, and covered it tightly from head to toe, wrapping herself into a cocoon.
Xiaoyu's mother wanted to go forward, but was stopped by Cheng Yan.
"Let her rest first." He glanced at Yu Xiaoyu under the quilt, "We won't bother you."
Visually, Yu Xiaoyu is not happy to see them, and no matter how much he persuades them, it may not be fruitful.Maybe after he and Li Dong walked, she would be willing to come out and change her clothes.
This trip was not a return in vain. After leaving Yu Xiaoyu's house, Cheng Yan pondered as he walked, and when he walked into the elevator, he pulled the hands of the people around him.
He still remembered that Lili, like Xiaowei, didn't like to take elevators.
"Senior brother." Li Dongxing froze, looked down at Cheng Yan's hand holding him, the tips of his ears were congested with blood at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Cheng Yan looked up at him, then let go of his five fingers as if nothing happened, and said, "Oh, you're back."
Li Dongxing hurriedly apologized for what happened just now: "I'm sorry, Lili really wants to come out. She rarely meets girls of the same age, so she can't help but regard Xiaoyu as a good friend."
Cheng Yan had no intention of blaming him: "Thanks to her today, I made a great contribution. Otherwise, it's me and you, who can see what happened? We have made a new breakthrough. Yu Xiaoyu has made himself out of touch with her." Water can't live, most likely because of something, she wants to punish herself."
Li Dongxing said softly: "She feels guilty and sad."
"Huh?" Cheng Yan asked quickly, "She told you?"
Li Dongxing shook his head: "No, it was me... Lili felt it. Lili said that Xiaoyu hid under the quilt at the end because he didn't want to cry in front of us."
Cheng Yan was speechless, what is this? Is it the result of Li Dongxing's efforts to empathize, or is it the girl's keen insight into emotions?
"Uh... well, she feels guilty, sad, and wants to punish herself." He recalled the things that Yu Xiaoyu was afraid of, and all the dots gradually connected into a thread, weaving into a vague possibility, but he couldn't get more Evidence confirms, "I think her mother must know something."
Li Dongxing thought about it and said: "I think... Xiaoyu's mother also feels guilty. But this feeling is mainly aimed at Yu Xiaoyu. She seems to think that Xiaoyu will become a fish because she didn't care enough, and as long as she If you indulge your daughter a bit more and work hard to compensate, Xiaoyu will recover automatically. For example, those humidifiers."
It was only then that Cheng Yan remembered that there were several humidifiers turned on not only in Yu Xiaoyu's room, but also in the living room, and it was clearly in the afternoon, and the curtains were not drawn in the whole house.Yu Xiaoyu's mother didn't have the trouble of becoming a fish, so why did she insist on living in such an uncomfortable wet and cold environment?Maybe Li Dongxing was right. Her actions were also due to subconsciously feeling sorry for Yu Xiaoyu.
He realized that the reason why Li Dongxing chose to speak directly about his visit just now was probably because he was aware of this.Yu Xiaoyu's mother is different from most parents. She is aware of Yu Xiaoyu's condition, and she really hopes that her daughter can be freed from the current problem, but unfortunately, she is also helpless.
Yu Xiaoyu sealed her spiritual world with the most drastic means, refusing others or even her mother to enter.
This kind of rude rejection often comes from childhood trauma.This was also Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing's initial speculation about Yu Xiaoyu's cause.However, judging from the current symptoms, the crux is not only the trauma, but also the guilt deep in her heart.
Who is the object of her guilt?
Cheng Yan's heart skipped a beat.He thought of another person, another person who was constantly hurting himself because of guilt, and even wanted to end his life.
He secretly glanced at Li Dongxing.
Could it be that the emergence of Zheng Heping's personality is not just a reflection of Li Dongxing's inner shame about his illness, but also some more fundamental reasons?
"Brother?" Li Dongxing was calling him, and it seemed that he had called more than once, "Xiaoyu's condition is getting worse, we still have to think of a way."
Cheng Yan hastily looked back and calmed down.
One yard counts for one yard, Li Dongxing's illness is still under control, and the more important thing now is how to get Yu Xiaoyu back to continue receiving treatment.
Visiting again may not lead to a better result. After the two of them go back together, they still have to start with Yu Xiaoyu's illness.
From Yu Xiaoyu's mother's words, it can be concluded that it was no accident that Yu Xiaoyu came home soaked that day. She must be like this every day these days, and her appearance is more like being in a lot of water than being wet by splashing water. Soaked for a long time.
"Swimming pool, or a private pond." Cheng Yan opened a map and searched, "Forget about the river, there is not a clean river in Jiangcheng, after all, Yu Xiaoyu is a girl, and she has no interest in making herself smelly. .”
Mr. Tian Zhu was naturally indispensable to find someone.
After hearing that Yu Xiaoyu ignored Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing, for some reason, he regained his composure, as if he was finally determined to ignore Yu Xiaoyu's "words of breaking up friendship".
The next day, Cheng Yan asked Yu Xiaoyu's mother about the time when Yu Xiaoyu was going out, and the three of them went out separately.
About an hour later, Cheng Yan was walking around a swimming pool in the city when he suddenly received a call from Mr. Tian Zhu.
Yu Xiaoyu was found.
According to Tian Zhujun's instructions, Cheng Yan rushed to Chengxi Park. Li Dongxing was already there, standing by a fountain with Tian Zhujun.
This fountain has been built for more than ten years. Cheng Yan still remembers that he came here when he was in high school. At that time, the fountain would spray water regularly. One corner was bustling.
Now the fountain, like most of the furnishings in this free park, has been in disrepair for a long time and is silent. The gray-white marble spout in the middle is covered with cracks, and no one wants to care about it except for the moss that has settled down happily.
However, that pool of water is still clear because it is connected to the newly built water park next to it.
The fountain pool was also made of marble. It was about one meter high and reached the waist level. It wasn't until Cheng Yan walked in that he saw a figure sitting in the pool.
Yu Xiaoyu sat motionless in the water with his knees hugged. He was wearing an off-white coat. The hem floated in the water, undulating slightly with the water ripples, like the fins of a fish gently paddling.
"There are a lot of plants here." Mr. Tian Zhu bent over the edge of the pool, picked up a camphor tree leaf from the water, and looked up at the interlaced tree shadows above his head, "My grandma and I often came here when we were young, I still remember , there is water, there are trees, it is very beautiful. I saw that the sun had not set when Xiaoyu went out, she would definitely not run to a place with no shade. She would not like a place where there are many people in the swimming pool. So I first The first thing that comes to mind is here.”
Cheng Yan patted him on the back and gave him a thumbs up.
This kid is usually confused, but he is very reliable at critical moments.
Li Dongxing tentatively walked half a circle along the pool, and stood in front of Yu Xiaoyu's line of sight.The girl in the pool didn't even blink her eyes, her eyes seemed to pass through him, and fell straight to a certain place in the void.
He came back and said to Cheng Yan, "She has entered a state of separation."
Tian Zhujun leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Then can she still hear us?"
Cheng Yan: "I can hear it, but I can't hear it."
It's not that he's playing tricks, but theoretically Yu Xiaoyu's hearing function is intact, but no one knows if she will use strong psychological hints to suppress the response of the auditory cortex after her onset, resulting in an effect that is essentially deaf-mute.
Tian Zhujun understood for himself: "You mean, she doesn't want to talk to us?"
"This is caused by non-subjective intention." Li Dongxing explained, "She didn't ignore it on purpose, maybe it was because she thought she was a fish, a fish stays in water, it is not heat-resistant, it can't breathe on land, and it can't blink. , and naturally don’t understand human language.”
Tian Zhujun was taken aback: "Then, only by interrupting this state can we let her talk to us?"
Cheng Yan: "You can try."
Tian Zhujun immediately started to move, running and jumping around the pond three times to the left and three times to the right, while jumping, he waved at Yu Xiaoyu desperately, and almost shouted loudly.
Looking at the dancing guy beside him, Cheng Yan helped his forehead, not wanting to show that he knew him.
Li Dongxing smiled slightly, and looked over with kind eyes: "Mr. Zhu is really energetic."
After the energetic Tian Zhujun seemed to have finished a whole set of radio gymnastics, and unilaterally chanted to the girl in the water for a full quarter of an hour, he moved back to Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing with a face of frustration, panting Angrily, said in frustration: "She ignores me."
Cheng Yan rubbed his ears, and said coolly, "It seems that even Tang Seng couldn't remember her when he came."
Li Dongxing: "Then there is only another way, by entering her state, to try to communicate."
Cheng Yan immediately regained his normal shape, pulled his arm, narrowed his eyes, and said with warning: "Don't try to make your crooked move."
Mr. Tian Zhu is still there, switching personalities on the spot is no fun.
Li Dongxing quickly said, "No, don't worry, brother. I'm just... thinking of other ways to empathize."
Tian Zhujun: "What is empathy?"
Li Dongxing: "Simply put, it is the ability to put yourself in the place of thinking."
Mr. Tian Zhu opened his eyes slightly, looked at Yu Xiaoyu in the pool, and somehow realized something, suddenly nodded like a martyr, and said, "I see."
Cheng Yan felt that something was wrong: "What do you know?"
Mr. Tian Zhu didn't answer.
He quickly tore off his wool coat as if he had been cursed, threw it into Li Dongxing's hands, jumped onto the marble pool with agility the other two had never seen before, glanced at the clear water, deep Take a breath and jump.
☆、She is a fish ([-])
If this was a diving competition, Tian Zhujun's actions just now must have scored zero points.
Both of them by the pool were splashed by the water, Cheng Yan wiped his face, turned to Li Dongxing and asked, "What kind of stimulation did this kid get?"
Li Dongxing carefully observed the movement in the pool, and said thoughtfully, "Mr. Zhu's idea may work."
In the fountain pool, Mr. Tian Zhu tried his best to maintain his balance, approached the girl on tiptoe, stopped half a meter away from her, and sat down tentatively while staring at her reaction.
Yu Xiaoyu basically didn't move, but his chin turned about ten degrees, as if he glanced at Tian Zhujun, and returned to the state of nothing in his eyes after two seconds.
But at this glance, the three people beside him saw hope.
"Mr. Zhu, she may have noticed you." Li Dongxing went around to Mr. Tian Zhu, "This is a good thing, maybe she will be willing to talk to you."
Tian Zhujun nodded, and looked at Yu Xiaoyu eagerly, waiting for her to speak.
This wait is four 10 minutes.
Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing stood guard by the pool, never taking their eyes off the people in the pool for a moment.
After seeing that vague first glance, the girl never made another reaction.She just sat there motionless, with her pointed chin resting on her knees, her eyes barely blinking, as if she was sitting like a marble statue.
Mr. Tian Zhu couldn't do it.The feeling of wet clothes sticking to his body is not pleasant. From the 5th minute onwards, he couldn't stop scratching his ears and cheeks, and he didn't dare to make a fuss so that the girl would be disgusted. A twist.
The sky was almost dark, Cheng Yan supported the edge of the pool with one hand, took out his mobile phone to look at it with the other, and shook his head at Li Dongxing.
At this moment, there was a "crash" in the pool, and Yu Xiaoyu stood up.
She looked at Mr. Tian Zhu who was still sitting in the pool, blinked slowly, and said, "Why are you here?"
Mr. Tian Zhu got up in a hurry, his body seemed to be numb, his body almost swayed, and he sat back in the water with a soft "Ouch" sound, wrinkled his face and thought hard for a long time, and suddenly had an idea, and said to Yu Xiaoyu: "I ... I, I, I, I am a water plant!"
He probably didn't dare to say that he wanted to persuade Yu Xiaoyu, because he was afraid that it would backfire and make the girl never appear again.
"Oh." Yu Xiaoyu actually nodded, "Then, goodbye."
After she finished speaking, she jumped out of the pool lightly, as if she didn't notice the other two people at all, and walked away without looking back.
Cheng Yan, who was treated as air, shrugged, stretched out his hand to pull Mr. Tian Zhu who couldn't get up: "Come out, water plants."
"She said goodbye to me." Tian Zhujun also ignored him, still sitting still, with a smile that looked so stupid on his face, "Goodbye, goodbye, that is to say, she still wants to see me again, She'll come again, won't she? Yay! I'm almost there!"
While shouting, he happily lay back in the water, turned over on the spot, and the water splashed by his limbs splashed Cheng Yan again.
"Yes." Cheng Yan took off his glasses and wiped them expressionlessly, "One is not cured, and another is crazy."
Speaking of which, Cheng Yan also knew that this might be a breakthrough.
No one can ask Tian Zhujun to continue doing this the next day, but no one can stop him.
In the next few days, as long as Yu Xiaoyu shows up, Mr. Tian Zhu will also report on time, sit in the pool together, face to face with Yu Xiaoyu, and be his "water plant" respectfully and professionally.
Yu Xiaoyu still ignored him, but didn't chase him away, and accepted his company naturally.
Obviously there is no breakthrough, but Mr. Tian Zhu seems to have been injected with chicken blood. Every day, he is full of energy and has no complaints. He is soaked in water for several hours, and he is still happy when he comes out, even if he just heard Yu Xiaoyu say "goodbye".
It is impossible for Tian Jin to be kept in the dark about Tian Zhujun tossing himself so much, but the old lady didn't come forward to stop him this time.
"Grandma said I was stupid, but she didn't let me come." Tian Zhujun had a proud smile on his face, "She also said that it's a good thing that I can persevere."
When he came to soak in the water again, he had changed into a full set of waterproof outdoor sportswear, and the cuffs and trousers were tied tightly. According to him, Tian Jin tried to force him to wear a swimming cap. He thought it was too stupid, so he refused. up.But grandma still stuffed him with a thermos filled with hot ginger tea and ordered him to drink it every day.
The bottle was more than one liter, so the other half had to go into the stomachs of Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing.
When Tian Zhujun sat in the pond with Yu Xiaoyu, Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing sat on the bench by the fountain to accompany them.
"This tea tastes really good." Cheng Yan brought two other cups, tasted it himself, and poured a cup for Li Dongxing as well.
Li Dongxing said with emotion: "The old lady really loves her grandson."
Cheng Yan smiled: "That kid doesn't quite understand. If someone is in charge, it means someone is reading it. This is a good thing."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was afraid of reminding Li Dongxing of the sadness of losing his parents when he was young, so he hurriedly shut up.
Li Dongxing's expression was indifferent, he thought of something, and slightly curled his lips.
Cheng Yan looked at him and raised his eyebrows.
Li Dongxing took the initiative to explain: "Lili said that she felt that Zheng Heping took care of us all day long, and that was enough. Then Xiaowei disagreed."
Cheng Yan: "En?"
He knew that after receiving Han Zheng's diagnosis and treatment, Xiao Wei gradually began to communicate with Li Dongxing, but it was still extremely unusual to express his opinions on his own initiative.
Li Dongxing: "Xiao Wei said, he prefers to be watched over by Brother Yan."
Cheng Yan was taken aback for a moment, subconsciously grabbed the teacup and drank his saliva, muttering, "This child..."
A soft smile appeared in Li Dongxing's eyes, and he continued, "Actually, I do too."
"Cough, cough..." Cheng Yan reflected the meaning of his words, trembling from the inside out, and almost spat out the water in his mouth.
"There are also teachers and senior sisters." After Li Dongxing finished speaking slowly, he turned his head and didn't look at Cheng Yan again.
Cheng Yan bit his teacup, leaned back on the bench, and pretended to count the stars.
After 5 minutes, he realized that the tea in the cup was already empty.
On the third day, it began to rain.
Li Dongxing prepared for the rain, and had already brought two umbrellas. Cheng Yan wanted to throw one of them to Tian Zhujun, but Tian Zhujun looked at Yu Xiaoyu who had no reaction to the rain, and gritted his teeth and refused.
He was soaked in the rain for two hours. When he came out, his face was pale and his hands and feet were soft. If Li Dongxing hadn't supported him, he would have slipped into the pool again.
Cheng Yan wanted to persuade him not to come the next day, but Mr. Tian Zhu naturally refused.
Late autumn is the season of high incidence of colds. After soaking in the pool for several days, Tian Zhujun finally couldn't hold it anymore, and that night was heroic.
But he was still very stubborn, and the next day with a pale face and staggering, he still jumped into the pool.
Half an hour later, a mother and son passed by. The five or six-year-old boy saw two people in the pool, and pulled his mother and shouted, "Look, there are people there!"
This dilapidated park was already deserted, and no one came here for several days. Yu Xiaoyu managed to forget things, but Mr. Tian Zhu couldn't.Seeing a stranger appear, he couldn't help shrinking into the water, trying to hide his face.
The mother probably saw that something was wrong with the two of them, after all, who would come here to take a dip in the cold water in November, held her son's hand, and planned to leave quickly.
Her son turned his head three times at every step, still staring at Mr. Tian Zhu, and said, "Mom, that big brother is sniffling, does he have a cold? Could sitting in a fountain cure a cold?"
"Kids, don't talk nonsense. That person obviously didn't have a cold. It's here. It's not right." The mother pointed to her temple, and threatened her son in a low voice, "If you look again, you will be infected too. Be careful." Mom and Dad won't want you then."
After she finished speaking, she pulled her son by the belt and hurried away.
These words fell into Tian Zhujun's ears, making his face whiter and redder, and his body shrinking lower and lower.There was a lot of moss growing on the bottom of the fountain pool, and it was wet and slippery. He was dizzy, and it was even more difficult to balance. He accidentally fell back into the water.
Cheng Yan and Tian Zhujun who were sitting by the pool stood up and rushed forward immediately.
The fountain pool was only half a meter deep at most, but Mr. Tian Zhu's limbs were already heavy due to a cold, so he suddenly fell into the water, and he jumped up, choking on several mouthfuls of water.
Cheng Yan's shoes have already stepped on the edge of the pool
Cheng Yan grabbed Mr. Tian Zhu and hurriedly said, "Mr. Tian Zhu is saying that the class he took is boring."
Li Dongxing was so concerned about Yu Xiaoyu's affairs and had worked hard for a month, if he knew that Yu Xiaoyu was treating his hard work as a waste of time, he might be hit hard.
"Hey, what a beautiful grass, did your little girlfriend give it to you?" Mu Mu came back by coincidence, caught sight of the flowerpot in Tian Zhujun's hand, and yelled.
Li Dongxing's face darkened immediately when he thought of something.
Cheng Yan couldn't help but give Mu Mu a sharp look. Sometimes he felt from the bottom of his heart that the two hundred and five senior sisters should share his senior brother's attention.
"Yu Xiaoyu is not coming." Li Dongxing came to the conclusion easily.
Cheng Yan had a stomach full of comforting words: "After all, she is a sophomore in high school, and she is busy with studies..."
Li Dongxing: "I'll go get her back."
Cheng Yan: "..."
This nosy business seems to be getting more and more irresistible.
Li Dongxing frowned: "It's the same as what senior brother advised me before. She also needs to face the reality and actively treat her."
Tian Zhujun was on the sidelines repeatedly echoing, Cheng Yan knew that once Li Dongxing made up his mind, he would be a master who could not be pulled back, so he had to surrender, and agreed to go with Li Dongxing to persuade Yu Xiaoyu.
Until the two actually followed the address to find Yu Xiaoyu's house, Cheng Yan still felt terribly awkward.
The address was given by Mr. Tian Zhu, and Yu Xiaoyu said he would not see him again, so he was too embarrassed to put on a face, and he was busy taking care of his grandma, so he gave Li Dongxing and Cheng Cheng this glorious and difficult task Word.
Yu Xiaoyu's family lives in the urban area of Jiangcheng City. From the perspective of the location and the construction of the community, the conditions are quite good. The market price is at least twice as expensive as Cheng Yan's school district house.Her family lived on the top floor of a small high-rise, and it seemed that, as she said, the family was not short of money.
Arriving at the door of Yu Xiaoyu's house in a blink of an eye, Cheng Yan hesitated and pressed the doorbell.
The communicator on the side lit up, and a middle-aged woman's voice came from inside: "Who is it?"
Cheng Yan offered his prepared remarks: "The teacher from Jiangcheng University... came to find Yu Xiaoyu. Is she at home?"
As he spoke, he took out his work card and shook it towards the camera.
The anti-theft door was opened a crack, someone peeked out half of his face, and sized up Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing.
Five seconds later, the door opened.
Cheng Yan saw that the person standing at the door was a strange woman, but he didn't expect the other person to open the door so easily, so he was slightly taken aback.
"Ms. Cheng and Mr. Li?" The woman smiled, "Xiaoyu told me that you are helping her make up lessons. So, the teachers still make home visits?"
From the shape of her eyebrows, eyes and face, it can be seen that she is very similar to Yu Xiaoyu, so she should be Yu Xiaoyu's mother without asking.
Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing looked at each other, and then got off the donkey along the slope: "Yes, home visit."
Yu Xiaoyu's mother let them into the house unsuspectingly, and said while pouring tea: "It's a pity that Xiaoyu is not at home, that girl, these days, no one is seen after school every day, it's not a big Saturday, and it's early in the morning I'm not at home, and I don't know where to go. The two teachers are really sorry."
As soon as he heard that Yu Xiaoyu was not at home, Cheng Yan thought about getting up and leaving.If you can't even see anyone, how can you persuade her to turn around.
Unexpectedly, Li Dongxing sat down, and said first: "It's okay. I don't know if it's convenient for you, would you like to chat with us?"
Yu Xiaoyu's mother was taken aback, stroked her hair, and said, "Yes, yes, teacher, just say it."
Cheng Yan was thinking about how to go around and find out the news, when he heard Li Dongxing bluntly tell the truth.
"Mother Xiaoyu, we are actually teachers at the Mental Health Center of Jiangcheng University." He cut straight to the point, "Student Xiaoyu came to us because she had some mental troubles. She often feels like a fish. I don't know if you know this. something?"
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyu's mother's expression changed instantly.
She put her hands on her knees, subconsciously tightened the fabric of the skirt, and said in a jiffy, "The child is naughty and keeps talking nonsense, teacher, don't worry too much..."
Li Dongxing said with a serious face: "This is not naughty. Xiaoyu is coming soon, and she knows exactly what she is talking about. Mother Xiaoyu, your daughter is likely to suffer from a serious mental disorder, which requires regular treatment. You must Address this issue early on.”
Xiaoyu's mother's complexion changed drastically, she sat stiffly for a few minutes, then stood up suddenly.
Cheng Yan almost thought she was planning to chase someone away.
He glanced at Li Dongxing, wondering what kind of medicine this kid was selling in his gourd, why hadn't he spoken so directly before, without any room for buffering.
"The tea is cold, let me pour you another cup." Luckily, Xiao Yuma just stood up and poured water. After pouring a cup of tea for Li Dongxing and Cheng Yan each, she poured another cup for herself before sitting down on the sofa again. .She took a sip of hot tea, she seemed to have calmed down a little, raised her head and asked anxiously: "Well, if you have a mental illness, will it affect your college entrance?"
The topic changed so quickly that even Li Dongxing didn't react, and opened his eyes slightly.
Cheng Yan quickly said: "It's okay, there are some restrictions on the majors you can apply for at most. Mental disorders are the same as other diseases, and there is nothing to be ashamed of. If you can treat them well, it may not affect your normal life. Your daughter can still become a child." A wonderful, useful person to society."
He finished speaking in one breath, and his tone was far from sincere.
The back of Li Dongxing's hands resting on the sofa trembled, and he seemed to realize that at least half of Cheng Yan's words were meant for him.
Xiaoyu's mother seemed to have taken a reassurance, and finally she was willing to let go: "Well... Xiaoyu, she has some small problems. This child, always yelling that she is a fish and not a human, I was really scared at first, and her uncle Cough cough, it was her stepfather who talked to her many times and told her not to talk nonsense. But then she became more and more serious, sometimes she had to take a bath five or six times a day, or soaked in the bathtub for hours and refused to Come out. I was afraid that something would happen to her, so I forced her to get up, but she still..."
Cheng Yan said, "I can't breathe."
"That's right, that's right." Xiaoyu's mother said with lingering fear, "I saw her struggling so hard, I really thought she was seriously ill and she was about to die, she was so anxious that she almost shed tears, so she hurriedly called the ambulance, but nothing came. Thinking of her sitting in the bathtub for a while, and waiting for the ambulance to come, she was already acting as usual. Her uncle criticized her, saying that she could no longer pretend to be so scary. I... I don't blame her, but I just feel that I was relieved, but even more frightened... this child, what happened to this child?"
Li Dongxing asked: "At what age did she get sick?"
Mother Xiaoyu thought for a while, raised her hand to cover her cheek, and said weakly: "I don't know. I'm sorry for her. She wasn't in this city when she was in elementary school. At that time, her father, my ex-husband and I... The relationship was not good. I thought about it later, and I didn’t care enough for her. Later we divorced, and I brought her to Jiangcheng. After about a year, I realized that something was wrong with her. We took her to I saw many doctors and went to the temple to burn incense several times...but she just won't get better."
Cheng Yan could tell that it wasn't that the family didn't care about their daughter, but that they were going in the wrong direction.
In Yu Xiaoyu's situation, no matter how active the physical examination or praying to God and Buddha, it was just a waste of effort.
Li Dongxing continued to ask: "Apart from relying on water, does she have any other abnormal behavior?"
Mother Xiaoyu frowned, stood up, and said, "Do you want to see her room yourself?"
Cheng Yan hesitated for a moment: "Is this inappropriate?"
Anyway, she is a 17-year-old girl, he and Li Dongxing are two big men, it is not easy to break into her boudoir while she is not at home, right?
Mother Xiaoyu raised her right hand, put it on her left forearm, shook her head and said, "Just... just take a look, she won't care. Because I really... can't tell."
Cheng Yan quickly understood what she meant.
Yu Xiaoyu's house is a small duplex, and Yu Xiaoyu's room lives on the second floor. When Xiaoyu's mother opened the door, even he couldn't help being shocked.
The room really didn't look like a girl's boudoir.
Yu Xiaoyu's room is extremely dark, so dark that in broad daylight, you can hardly see your fingers. Cheng Yan thought that there were thick curtains blocking the sunlight, but after a closer look, he found that the windows were blocked by rows of plants. Most of them are vines such as pothos, with more luxuriant branches and leaves in one pot, and the plump leaves hang down vertically, layered and intertwined, just like a green waterfall, covering most of the wall airtightly, and even part of it is spread on the ground. On the bed below, it was inextricably entangled with the quilt.
Not only that, the room is extremely damp, just standing at the door, it's like a fine spring rain, and the nose is full of wet smell with earthy smell.Cheng Yan soon discovered that it was due to the dozens of humidifiers placed in the room. Even if Yu Xiaoyu was not around, these humidifiers were still working tirelessly, spewing out puffs of white water vapor.
At first glance, the whole room is shrouded in white mist, and even the hanging green vines are slightly swayed by the blowing. Not only is it not full of vitality as it should be, but it is full of ghosts because of the coldness of the room.
It was already rainy in Jiangcheng in autumn, and with the addition of such battles, after only staying for half a minute, Cheng Yan felt sticky on his forearms, and felt a chill in his heart.
At this moment, there seemed to be an extra hand on his arm.
Cheng Yan's hair stood on end, and he turned his head so hastily that he almost twisted his neck.
It turned out that the person who arrested him was Li Dongxing, Cheng Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and asked under his throat, "What's wrong?"
"Lili is scared." Li Dongxing whispered, leaning on Cheng Yan.
☆, she is a fish ([-])
Cheng Yan was startled, he didn't expect Lili to appear at this time, so he quickly glanced to the side, saw that Xiaoyu's mother was still standing at the door and didn't dare to look into the house, so he relieved himself.
"It's okay, don't be afraid." While comforting softly, he secretly patted the hand holding his forearm, thinking about how to coax Lili back.
The two of them are still talking in someone else's house. It's a teacher at Jiangcheng University. If they accidentally show a little girlish demeanor, the reliable image they just worked hard to create will collapse in an instant.At first glance, Xiaoyu's mother is not too enlightened. Who would have thought and accepted that this is a girl's soul temporarily living in Li Dongxing's body, and would only treat him as a sissy pervert.
Lili nodded knowingly, grabbed Cheng Yan's fingertips, and said timidly, "Xiao Yu is also scared."
Cheng Yan was puzzled: "What do you mean?"
He had heard that people with Dissociative Identity Disorder could easily split into new personalities. At first, he had some scruples about Li Dongxing's contact with Yu Xiaoyu, because he was worried that Yu Xiaoyu's hysteria would further affect Li Dongxing, and would cause the whole The fifth personality came out.
Fortunately, things are not as bad as he thought.
Lili raised her other hand and hugged her shoulder, and said, "I... I don't know. I just think that no girl would like to live in such a gloomy and damp room. Xiaoyu is actually quite She loves beauty, and she definitely doesn't like this kind of musty feeling, you see, she even put away all the hair ties on purpose."
Cheng Yan followed Lili's gaze, and saw a row of bookshelves nailed above the desk in the corner. On the shelves were a pile of mathematics and computer books, and several transparent storage boxes. Inside the boxes were many colorful books. Hair bands, and other accessories that girls like.
This row of shelves is the only corner in the whole room that is far away from the humidifier. It seems that Yu Xiaoyu really intends to avoid letting these precious things of hers get wet.
An idea came to Cheng Yan's mind.
Maybe, Yu Xiaoyu doesn't like being a fish?Judging from the results of the previous EEG data analysis, she did not have any liking for the ocean and water.
Then she insisted on forcing herself to be inseparable from water, could it be out of... some kind of self-punishment?
He frowned, turned to Xiaoyu's mother, and asked, "Has your daughter lived in a place with many flowers and plants before?"
If you simply want to shade the sun, why choose vines like dills that need to be cared for, just draw a curtain or stick a blackout window paper and you're done.
Xiaoyu's mother thought about it carefully, and said: "When Xiaoyu was a child, she lived with her grandmother in her hometown, where...there was a pretty big greenhouse."
Cheng Yan raised his eyebrows, instinctively thinking that the greenhouse might be the key factor, and asked, "Is the greenhouse still there?"
Xiaoyu's mother was silent for a while, then said in a low voice, "After her grandma passed away, the old house was sold."
Cheng Yan was a little disappointed, and continued to ask a few more questions, hoping to see if he could get some old photos or something, so that he could test Yu Xiaoyu's reaction in the future.
Xiaoyu's mother faltered a few words, obviously unwilling to go into details.
The more this was the case, the more Cheng Yan felt that something was wrong, but he was not willing to force others, so he planned to leave after a few polite words.
At this time, the door lock downstairs rang, and Yu Xiaoyu came back.
The girl was wearing a thin sports jacket, and her whole body was soaking wet, as if she just got out of the river.
"Xiaoyu!" Xiaoyu's mother immediately yelled, pursed her lips, and glanced nervously at Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing who were brought upstairs by her.
"Mom." Yu Xiaoyu raised her head, glanced lightly, and saw the other two people upstairs, "Mr. Li, Mr. Cheng."
Her tone was unwavering, as if it was no accident that there were two more people in the family. After saying hello, she went upstairs, with her wet ponytail flicking behind her head, leaving a small spot on the ground with every step she took. beach water stains.
The closer he got, the more clearly Cheng Yan could see that Yu Xiaoyu was not only drenched, but his face was even bloodless, and his body was still shaking slightly, it seemed that he was very cold.
Xiaoyu's mother wanted to hold her back: "Why did it happen again..."
"Mom, I'm tired." Yu Xiaoyu dodged, and the three of them slid into the room directly at the door.
She jumped onto the bed in a wet suit, pulled up the same half-wet quilt, and covered it tightly from head to toe, wrapping herself into a cocoon.
Xiaoyu's mother wanted to go forward, but was stopped by Cheng Yan.
"Let her rest first." He glanced at Yu Xiaoyu under the quilt, "We won't bother you."
Visually, Yu Xiaoyu is not happy to see them, and no matter how much he persuades them, it may not be fruitful.Maybe after he and Li Dong walked, she would be willing to come out and change her clothes.
This trip was not a return in vain. After leaving Yu Xiaoyu's house, Cheng Yan pondered as he walked, and when he walked into the elevator, he pulled the hands of the people around him.
He still remembered that Lili, like Xiaowei, didn't like to take elevators.
"Senior brother." Li Dongxing froze, looked down at Cheng Yan's hand holding him, the tips of his ears were congested with blood at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Cheng Yan looked up at him, then let go of his five fingers as if nothing happened, and said, "Oh, you're back."
Li Dongxing hurriedly apologized for what happened just now: "I'm sorry, Lili really wants to come out. She rarely meets girls of the same age, so she can't help but regard Xiaoyu as a good friend."
Cheng Yan had no intention of blaming him: "Thanks to her today, I made a great contribution. Otherwise, it's me and you, who can see what happened? We have made a new breakthrough. Yu Xiaoyu has made himself out of touch with her." Water can't live, most likely because of something, she wants to punish herself."
Li Dongxing said softly: "She feels guilty and sad."
"Huh?" Cheng Yan asked quickly, "She told you?"
Li Dongxing shook his head: "No, it was me... Lili felt it. Lili said that Xiaoyu hid under the quilt at the end because he didn't want to cry in front of us."
Cheng Yan was speechless, what is this? Is it the result of Li Dongxing's efforts to empathize, or is it the girl's keen insight into emotions?
"Uh... well, she feels guilty, sad, and wants to punish herself." He recalled the things that Yu Xiaoyu was afraid of, and all the dots gradually connected into a thread, weaving into a vague possibility, but he couldn't get more Evidence confirms, "I think her mother must know something."
Li Dongxing thought about it and said: "I think... Xiaoyu's mother also feels guilty. But this feeling is mainly aimed at Yu Xiaoyu. She seems to think that Xiaoyu will become a fish because she didn't care enough, and as long as she If you indulge your daughter a bit more and work hard to compensate, Xiaoyu will recover automatically. For example, those humidifiers."
It was only then that Cheng Yan remembered that there were several humidifiers turned on not only in Yu Xiaoyu's room, but also in the living room, and it was clearly in the afternoon, and the curtains were not drawn in the whole house.Yu Xiaoyu's mother didn't have the trouble of becoming a fish, so why did she insist on living in such an uncomfortable wet and cold environment?Maybe Li Dongxing was right. Her actions were also due to subconsciously feeling sorry for Yu Xiaoyu.
He realized that the reason why Li Dongxing chose to speak directly about his visit just now was probably because he was aware of this.Yu Xiaoyu's mother is different from most parents. She is aware of Yu Xiaoyu's condition, and she really hopes that her daughter can be freed from the current problem, but unfortunately, she is also helpless.
Yu Xiaoyu sealed her spiritual world with the most drastic means, refusing others or even her mother to enter.
This kind of rude rejection often comes from childhood trauma.This was also Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing's initial speculation about Yu Xiaoyu's cause.However, judging from the current symptoms, the crux is not only the trauma, but also the guilt deep in her heart.
Who is the object of her guilt?
Cheng Yan's heart skipped a beat.He thought of another person, another person who was constantly hurting himself because of guilt, and even wanted to end his life.
He secretly glanced at Li Dongxing.
Could it be that the emergence of Zheng Heping's personality is not just a reflection of Li Dongxing's inner shame about his illness, but also some more fundamental reasons?
"Brother?" Li Dongxing was calling him, and it seemed that he had called more than once, "Xiaoyu's condition is getting worse, we still have to think of a way."
Cheng Yan hastily looked back and calmed down.
One yard counts for one yard, Li Dongxing's illness is still under control, and the more important thing now is how to get Yu Xiaoyu back to continue receiving treatment.
Visiting again may not lead to a better result. After the two of them go back together, they still have to start with Yu Xiaoyu's illness.
From Yu Xiaoyu's mother's words, it can be concluded that it was no accident that Yu Xiaoyu came home soaked that day. She must be like this every day these days, and her appearance is more like being in a lot of water than being wet by splashing water. Soaked for a long time.
"Swimming pool, or a private pond." Cheng Yan opened a map and searched, "Forget about the river, there is not a clean river in Jiangcheng, after all, Yu Xiaoyu is a girl, and she has no interest in making herself smelly. .”
Mr. Tian Zhu was naturally indispensable to find someone.
After hearing that Yu Xiaoyu ignored Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing, for some reason, he regained his composure, as if he was finally determined to ignore Yu Xiaoyu's "words of breaking up friendship".
The next day, Cheng Yan asked Yu Xiaoyu's mother about the time when Yu Xiaoyu was going out, and the three of them went out separately.
About an hour later, Cheng Yan was walking around a swimming pool in the city when he suddenly received a call from Mr. Tian Zhu.
Yu Xiaoyu was found.
According to Tian Zhujun's instructions, Cheng Yan rushed to Chengxi Park. Li Dongxing was already there, standing by a fountain with Tian Zhujun.
This fountain has been built for more than ten years. Cheng Yan still remembers that he came here when he was in high school. At that time, the fountain would spray water regularly. One corner was bustling.
Now the fountain, like most of the furnishings in this free park, has been in disrepair for a long time and is silent. The gray-white marble spout in the middle is covered with cracks, and no one wants to care about it except for the moss that has settled down happily.
However, that pool of water is still clear because it is connected to the newly built water park next to it.
The fountain pool was also made of marble. It was about one meter high and reached the waist level. It wasn't until Cheng Yan walked in that he saw a figure sitting in the pool.
Yu Xiaoyu sat motionless in the water with his knees hugged. He was wearing an off-white coat. The hem floated in the water, undulating slightly with the water ripples, like the fins of a fish gently paddling.
"There are a lot of plants here." Mr. Tian Zhu bent over the edge of the pool, picked up a camphor tree leaf from the water, and looked up at the interlaced tree shadows above his head, "My grandma and I often came here when we were young, I still remember , there is water, there are trees, it is very beautiful. I saw that the sun had not set when Xiaoyu went out, she would definitely not run to a place with no shade. She would not like a place where there are many people in the swimming pool. So I first The first thing that comes to mind is here.”
Cheng Yan patted him on the back and gave him a thumbs up.
This kid is usually confused, but he is very reliable at critical moments.
Li Dongxing tentatively walked half a circle along the pool, and stood in front of Yu Xiaoyu's line of sight.The girl in the pool didn't even blink her eyes, her eyes seemed to pass through him, and fell straight to a certain place in the void.
He came back and said to Cheng Yan, "She has entered a state of separation."
Tian Zhujun leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Then can she still hear us?"
Cheng Yan: "I can hear it, but I can't hear it."
It's not that he's playing tricks, but theoretically Yu Xiaoyu's hearing function is intact, but no one knows if she will use strong psychological hints to suppress the response of the auditory cortex after her onset, resulting in an effect that is essentially deaf-mute.
Tian Zhujun understood for himself: "You mean, she doesn't want to talk to us?"
"This is caused by non-subjective intention." Li Dongxing explained, "She didn't ignore it on purpose, maybe it was because she thought she was a fish, a fish stays in water, it is not heat-resistant, it can't breathe on land, and it can't blink. , and naturally don’t understand human language.”
Tian Zhujun was taken aback: "Then, only by interrupting this state can we let her talk to us?"
Cheng Yan: "You can try."
Tian Zhujun immediately started to move, running and jumping around the pond three times to the left and three times to the right, while jumping, he waved at Yu Xiaoyu desperately, and almost shouted loudly.
Looking at the dancing guy beside him, Cheng Yan helped his forehead, not wanting to show that he knew him.
Li Dongxing smiled slightly, and looked over with kind eyes: "Mr. Zhu is really energetic."
After the energetic Tian Zhujun seemed to have finished a whole set of radio gymnastics, and unilaterally chanted to the girl in the water for a full quarter of an hour, he moved back to Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing with a face of frustration, panting Angrily, said in frustration: "She ignores me."
Cheng Yan rubbed his ears, and said coolly, "It seems that even Tang Seng couldn't remember her when he came."
Li Dongxing: "Then there is only another way, by entering her state, to try to communicate."
Cheng Yan immediately regained his normal shape, pulled his arm, narrowed his eyes, and said with warning: "Don't try to make your crooked move."
Mr. Tian Zhu is still there, switching personalities on the spot is no fun.
Li Dongxing quickly said, "No, don't worry, brother. I'm just... thinking of other ways to empathize."
Tian Zhujun: "What is empathy?"
Li Dongxing: "Simply put, it is the ability to put yourself in the place of thinking."
Mr. Tian Zhu opened his eyes slightly, looked at Yu Xiaoyu in the pool, and somehow realized something, suddenly nodded like a martyr, and said, "I see."
Cheng Yan felt that something was wrong: "What do you know?"
Mr. Tian Zhu didn't answer.
He quickly tore off his wool coat as if he had been cursed, threw it into Li Dongxing's hands, jumped onto the marble pool with agility the other two had never seen before, glanced at the clear water, deep Take a breath and jump.
☆、She is a fish ([-])
If this was a diving competition, Tian Zhujun's actions just now must have scored zero points.
Both of them by the pool were splashed by the water, Cheng Yan wiped his face, turned to Li Dongxing and asked, "What kind of stimulation did this kid get?"
Li Dongxing carefully observed the movement in the pool, and said thoughtfully, "Mr. Zhu's idea may work."
In the fountain pool, Mr. Tian Zhu tried his best to maintain his balance, approached the girl on tiptoe, stopped half a meter away from her, and sat down tentatively while staring at her reaction.
Yu Xiaoyu basically didn't move, but his chin turned about ten degrees, as if he glanced at Tian Zhujun, and returned to the state of nothing in his eyes after two seconds.
But at this glance, the three people beside him saw hope.
"Mr. Zhu, she may have noticed you." Li Dongxing went around to Mr. Tian Zhu, "This is a good thing, maybe she will be willing to talk to you."
Tian Zhujun nodded, and looked at Yu Xiaoyu eagerly, waiting for her to speak.
This wait is four 10 minutes.
Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing stood guard by the pool, never taking their eyes off the people in the pool for a moment.
After seeing that vague first glance, the girl never made another reaction.She just sat there motionless, with her pointed chin resting on her knees, her eyes barely blinking, as if she was sitting like a marble statue.
Mr. Tian Zhu couldn't do it.The feeling of wet clothes sticking to his body is not pleasant. From the 5th minute onwards, he couldn't stop scratching his ears and cheeks, and he didn't dare to make a fuss so that the girl would be disgusted. A twist.
The sky was almost dark, Cheng Yan supported the edge of the pool with one hand, took out his mobile phone to look at it with the other, and shook his head at Li Dongxing.
At this moment, there was a "crash" in the pool, and Yu Xiaoyu stood up.
She looked at Mr. Tian Zhu who was still sitting in the pool, blinked slowly, and said, "Why are you here?"
Mr. Tian Zhu got up in a hurry, his body seemed to be numb, his body almost swayed, and he sat back in the water with a soft "Ouch" sound, wrinkled his face and thought hard for a long time, and suddenly had an idea, and said to Yu Xiaoyu: "I ... I, I, I, I am a water plant!"
He probably didn't dare to say that he wanted to persuade Yu Xiaoyu, because he was afraid that it would backfire and make the girl never appear again.
"Oh." Yu Xiaoyu actually nodded, "Then, goodbye."
After she finished speaking, she jumped out of the pool lightly, as if she didn't notice the other two people at all, and walked away without looking back.
Cheng Yan, who was treated as air, shrugged, stretched out his hand to pull Mr. Tian Zhu who couldn't get up: "Come out, water plants."
"She said goodbye to me." Tian Zhujun also ignored him, still sitting still, with a smile that looked so stupid on his face, "Goodbye, goodbye, that is to say, she still wants to see me again, She'll come again, won't she? Yay! I'm almost there!"
While shouting, he happily lay back in the water, turned over on the spot, and the water splashed by his limbs splashed Cheng Yan again.
"Yes." Cheng Yan took off his glasses and wiped them expressionlessly, "One is not cured, and another is crazy."
Speaking of which, Cheng Yan also knew that this might be a breakthrough.
No one can ask Tian Zhujun to continue doing this the next day, but no one can stop him.
In the next few days, as long as Yu Xiaoyu shows up, Mr. Tian Zhu will also report on time, sit in the pool together, face to face with Yu Xiaoyu, and be his "water plant" respectfully and professionally.
Yu Xiaoyu still ignored him, but didn't chase him away, and accepted his company naturally.
Obviously there is no breakthrough, but Mr. Tian Zhu seems to have been injected with chicken blood. Every day, he is full of energy and has no complaints. He is soaked in water for several hours, and he is still happy when he comes out, even if he just heard Yu Xiaoyu say "goodbye".
It is impossible for Tian Jin to be kept in the dark about Tian Zhujun tossing himself so much, but the old lady didn't come forward to stop him this time.
"Grandma said I was stupid, but she didn't let me come." Tian Zhujun had a proud smile on his face, "She also said that it's a good thing that I can persevere."
When he came to soak in the water again, he had changed into a full set of waterproof outdoor sportswear, and the cuffs and trousers were tied tightly. According to him, Tian Jin tried to force him to wear a swimming cap. He thought it was too stupid, so he refused. up.But grandma still stuffed him with a thermos filled with hot ginger tea and ordered him to drink it every day.
The bottle was more than one liter, so the other half had to go into the stomachs of Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing.
When Tian Zhujun sat in the pond with Yu Xiaoyu, Cheng Yan and Li Dongxing sat on the bench by the fountain to accompany them.
"This tea tastes really good." Cheng Yan brought two other cups, tasted it himself, and poured a cup for Li Dongxing as well.
Li Dongxing said with emotion: "The old lady really loves her grandson."
Cheng Yan smiled: "That kid doesn't quite understand. If someone is in charge, it means someone is reading it. This is a good thing."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was afraid of reminding Li Dongxing of the sadness of losing his parents when he was young, so he hurriedly shut up.
Li Dongxing's expression was indifferent, he thought of something, and slightly curled his lips.
Cheng Yan looked at him and raised his eyebrows.
Li Dongxing took the initiative to explain: "Lili said that she felt that Zheng Heping took care of us all day long, and that was enough. Then Xiaowei disagreed."
Cheng Yan: "En?"
He knew that after receiving Han Zheng's diagnosis and treatment, Xiao Wei gradually began to communicate with Li Dongxing, but it was still extremely unusual to express his opinions on his own initiative.
Li Dongxing: "Xiao Wei said, he prefers to be watched over by Brother Yan."
Cheng Yan was taken aback for a moment, subconsciously grabbed the teacup and drank his saliva, muttering, "This child..."
A soft smile appeared in Li Dongxing's eyes, and he continued, "Actually, I do too."
"Cough, cough..." Cheng Yan reflected the meaning of his words, trembling from the inside out, and almost spat out the water in his mouth.
"There are also teachers and senior sisters." After Li Dongxing finished speaking slowly, he turned his head and didn't look at Cheng Yan again.
Cheng Yan bit his teacup, leaned back on the bench, and pretended to count the stars.
After 5 minutes, he realized that the tea in the cup was already empty.
On the third day, it began to rain.
Li Dongxing prepared for the rain, and had already brought two umbrellas. Cheng Yan wanted to throw one of them to Tian Zhujun, but Tian Zhujun looked at Yu Xiaoyu who had no reaction to the rain, and gritted his teeth and refused.
He was soaked in the rain for two hours. When he came out, his face was pale and his hands and feet were soft. If Li Dongxing hadn't supported him, he would have slipped into the pool again.
Cheng Yan wanted to persuade him not to come the next day, but Mr. Tian Zhu naturally refused.
Late autumn is the season of high incidence of colds. After soaking in the pool for several days, Tian Zhujun finally couldn't hold it anymore, and that night was heroic.
But he was still very stubborn, and the next day with a pale face and staggering, he still jumped into the pool.
Half an hour later, a mother and son passed by. The five or six-year-old boy saw two people in the pool, and pulled his mother and shouted, "Look, there are people there!"
This dilapidated park was already deserted, and no one came here for several days. Yu Xiaoyu managed to forget things, but Mr. Tian Zhu couldn't.Seeing a stranger appear, he couldn't help shrinking into the water, trying to hide his face.
The mother probably saw that something was wrong with the two of them, after all, who would come here to take a dip in the cold water in November, held her son's hand, and planned to leave quickly.
Her son turned his head three times at every step, still staring at Mr. Tian Zhu, and said, "Mom, that big brother is sniffling, does he have a cold? Could sitting in a fountain cure a cold?"
"Kids, don't talk nonsense. That person obviously didn't have a cold. It's here. It's not right." The mother pointed to her temple, and threatened her son in a low voice, "If you look again, you will be infected too. Be careful." Mom and Dad won't want you then."
After she finished speaking, she pulled her son by the belt and hurried away.
These words fell into Tian Zhujun's ears, making his face whiter and redder, and his body shrinking lower and lower.There was a lot of moss growing on the bottom of the fountain pool, and it was wet and slippery. He was dizzy, and it was even more difficult to balance. He accidentally fell back into the water.
Cheng Yan and Tian Zhujun who were sitting by the pool stood up and rushed forward immediately.
The fountain pool was only half a meter deep at most, but Mr. Tian Zhu's limbs were already heavy due to a cold, so he suddenly fell into the water, and he jumped up, choking on several mouthfuls of water.
Cheng Yan's shoes have already stepped on the edge of the pool
