Chapter 694: Someone, send some doctors over (Update)

From this perspective, this week has been tiring, but it can’t be said that I have gained nothing.

Knowing that Jiang Xia was not a member of that sinister organization, Amuro Toru was quite relieved. He gradually felt that he had overthought before and breathed a sigh of relief.

Next to him, Yuya Kazami secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He was really exhausted these past few days - he had to check on many suspicious people on the street, stay up late many nights, and even crawl through the ventilation ducts of the police station looking for people... The curly-haired man who always disappeared mysteriously had not been found yet.

Speaking of which, Mr. Furuya always calls people by their names incorrectly, and it always feels like they know each other before. Is it true that he is investigating Kurosawa just because he is suspicious? Kazami Yuya is a little confused and suspects that he has been misused.

Although the number of strange jobs has increased a lot, and even though the mission of observing Jiangxia has ended, these jobs still exist...

But in this case, at least there won't be a constant flow of new jobs.

"..." The physical condition of the incident was too terrible. Even though they were so far away from Jiangxia, they were all infected with the work. Oh, and there was also the peerless beauty in white clothes who touched porcelain like a ghost that we met in the woods before. There was no result from the investigation of her. That couldn't really be a ghost.

Yuya Kazami recalled his experiences of the past few days and was still frightened. He couldn't help but drive more carefully, always worrying that he would suddenly have a flat tire like Mr. Fūya, or that some suspicious passerby would suddenly appear in front of the car.

"Oh, right." After driving for a while, Feng Jianyuya suddenly remembered something, "Regarding Jiang Xia... We felt that some of his behaviors were a bit strange - I mean the scenes we captured when it was inconvenient for you to monitor us."

"Strange?" Amuro Toru was stunned.

When it is inconvenient for him to monitor, it should be referring to the time period when he is staying in the hotel.

...Could it be that Jiang Xia went out at night, or sent a signal to possible helpers in a way that his subordinates could not recognize but felt was wrong?

"Send it to me." Toru Amuro, who was originally lying comfortably on a sun lounger, became alert and suddenly sat up straight, realizing that things might not be over yet.

…

However, the situation was not quite what he expected.

A minute later, Yuya Kazami found the edited video - they had already sorted out the noteworthy parts and planned to send them to Toru Amuro for review.

And this is the most important part of it.

Toru Amuro took his phone, watched the several parts pieced together, and gradually understood what Yuya Kazami wanted to express.

It’s not that Jiang Xia was passing on information.

The video shows clips of Jiang Xia in various hotel rooms.

Most of the time, Jiang Xia behaved normally. But occasionally, when his mind wandered too much, his eyes would focus on the air, and in more serious cases, he would suddenly reach out his hand as if he was touching something, and then quickly wake up and stop.

At first glance, this action looks like tidying up messed-up clothes - stretching them out when you feel something is not straight, or brushing away some large pieces of dust in the air. And it doesn't happen very often, only a few times a week.

But now, after being edited and merged together by some clever ghost, and watched continuously, it feels like something is increasingly wrong.

In addition, at a quick glance, this type of action seems to occur more frequently when Jiang Xia just wakes up, or wakes up in the middle of the night and is confused... Is it a hallucination?

Amuro Toru was silent for a moment.

Come to think of it, he remembered that Jiang Xia did have a psychologist before.

Later, the doctor was arrested for shooting a policeman in the street, and that was all.

According to the information found when Jiang Xia came to Amuro's office and Amuro Toru was investigating, when the doctor was still alive, Jiang Xia didn't go to the hospital very often.

In addition, after getting to know him, Amuro Toru gradually felt that Jiang Xia was a normal person with a relatively peaceful mentality. Even if he had been depressed before, he should have recovered now. So although he thought that it would be better to find a doctor for Jiang Xia just to be on the safe side, he was too busy and never had time to do so.

But now it seems...

Amuro Toru thought, perhaps Jiang Xia’s mental state was not as healthy as he thought?

While I was thinking, the strange clip about Jiang Xia had already finished playing.

Amuro Toru reached out and turned the progress bar back to the front. He looked at it carefully and said thoughtfully:

"I remember talking about something similar with a psychological counselor before. He said that in mental disorders, isolated visual hallucinations are not very common, but auditory hallucinations seem to be more common. But..."

Toru Amuro recalled Jiang Xia's situation and felt that this employee was indeed a little distracted, but Jiang Xia had never had the experience of replying to the void, nor would he suddenly get startled, and it seemed that he had no auditory hallucinations at all.

"I'll take him to an ophthalmologist in a while. Maybe he has floaters or something like that. Being too tired or stressed can easily affect vision."

Amuro Toru thought about it, and started to give tasks to Kazami Yuya:

"Also... you should go find a few suitable doctors. If it's not a problem with the eyes, but a real mental disorder, it needs treatment as soon as possible."

Although in this video, Jiang Xia's behavior is more like seeing something wrong, but Amuro Toru always feels that we can't immediately draw the conclusion that "Jiang Xia has never had auditory hallucinations."

——What if Jiang Xia actually had it, but just ignored it? After all, even the situation similar to hallucination only appeared when he was half asleep. If it wasn't for being secretly photographed during this observation, they probably wouldn't even be able to detect the situation of "hallucination".

In addition, thinking from another perspective, perhaps Jiang Xia has always had the full set of symptoms of auditory, visual, and tactile hallucinations, but he himself realized that these things were abnormal, so he never showed any abnormality at ordinary times, and only showed clues when he did not have the energy to distinguish them?

"..." Toru Amuro thought carefully about Jiang Xia's most common state on weekdays, especially in the past few days.

Then the more I thought about it, the more suspicious my employees’ daydreaming and love of catching up on sleep began to seem.

...Maybe Jiang Xia has discovered that he has symptoms such as auditory and visual hallucinations, but does not want to go to the hospital. Instead, he plans to heal himself by relying on his amazing ability to distinguish and self-control?

But it's hard to heal this kind of thing on your own.

As expected, he should find a suitable doctor and a boss who will force him to seek medical treatment. It is difficult to get a stubborn patient to go to the hospital by relying on his own conscience, and it is also difficult to rely on his family members... Well, Jiang Xia has no family members.

Anyway, we can't let this go on. Since Jiang Xia can act like a completely normal person, his condition should be controllable. If we don't treat him now, it may be too late later.
