There is a very important category in criminal psychology called the motivation for criminal behavior, or criminal motive.
It is said that the vast majority of criminals have incentives to commit crimes, and these incentives can be said to be the motive for committing crimes.
In Ye Ju's case, the reason for Ye Ju's weirdness also has inducement and stimulation, or motivation.
Ye Ju suffers from aphasia, male phobia, emotional indifference, lacks love from family and friends, lives a simple life, has no obvious material desires, and has tendencies towards self-harm and suicide.
No words, no heart, no expression, no emotion, no fear, no shame.
So far, the only thing Ye Ju is interested in is the emotion called love.
If we were to find the trigger for Ye Ju's strange behavior, it could only be love.
Or to put it in a broader sense——
Human emotions themselves.
Emotional Experiment, Love Notes, and The Bunny Girl in the Clock Tower.
It can be guessed that Ye Ju wants not only romantic feelings, but the emotion itself.
But so far, it seems that the only thing that can cause Ye Ju to have emotional fluctuations is love.
The silence on her face when she was cutting her wrists, the extremely embarrassing bunny girl outfit she was wearing as she was about to go outside, and the cute little rabbit that was still alive she cut into dozens of pieces without blinking an eye.
Maybe they are all testing whether they can still have fluctuations only in romantic feelings.
And there is something even more dangerous.
Lin An took a deep breath and said to Jian Shuier, "Please transfer the call to Huihui. Thank you."
On the other end of the phone, Jian Shuier seemed not to hear and did not respond for a long time.
Lin An had no choice but to speak again: "Miss, please..."
Before he could finish his words, Jian Shui'er's panicked voice came: "I, we just met not long ago, and the feelings of liking you are still...almost, and even further away from loving you to death, but I'm very happy that you said that, hehe."
Jian Shuier smiled foolishly.
"You seem to have made a mistake, but... never mind. Please transfer the call to Huihui for me. I owe you one more time."
Lin An didn't have time to explain the misunderstanding, saving people was the most important thing right now.
"Got it. Remember to make an appointment, plus this one I owe you. Huihui, you answer the phone."
"I'm Xu Hui." Huihui's voice on the other end of the phone was so flat that it seemed emotionless.
Lin An knew that Huihui had feelings, but she always behaved as coldly as a robot in her daily life.
Jian Shuier has two assistants, Xu Nai is a big fool with extremely strong fighting power.
Xu Hui's knowledge reserve is terrifying. It seems that there is nothing she doesn't understand. She can answer any question and her insight is too sharp.
It is a humanoid self-propelled AI.
He was actually quite afraid of contacting Huihui, but he needed to use Xu Hui's knowledge reserves at the moment.
"Let me ask you something. If a person completely loses their emotions, is she still them?"
Only half a second later, Xu Hui's voice rang out: "The famous philosophical paradox of the Ship of Theseus: if all the parts of a ship are replaced, is it still the same ship? Conversely, if all of a person's memories are erased, is they still the same person? To those who knew them, is they essentially dead?"
"I think if someone completely loses their memory, then spiritually speaking, the original person is truly dead. From an outsider's perspective, the person with new memories cannot resonate with their past, and the original person is effectively dead."
"But from his perspective, even if he loses his memory, his body is still his own, and his ego and habits will remain. He will believe that he is still the same person, that the person in the past is not dead, and that life continues in him."
"However, some people believe that the disappearance of past memories is equivalent to the death of the past self. No longer acting as the past self is equivalent to death."
"It all comes down to the distinction between your own identities."
"So~" Lin An thought for a moment and said, "If a person completely loses her emotions, she's still herself. But if she believes her past self with emotions is who she is, then once she completely loses her emotions, she's effectively dead."
Xu Hui's voice was flat. "From the information I've obtained, Miss Ye Ju's situation doesn't show a sudden loss of all her emotions. It's been a long process, a gradual loss of fear, empathy, sadness, affection, joy, sorrow, happiness—one human emotion after another. There are two types of blind people: those who are born blind and those who become blind later in life. Those who become blind later in life, having seen the vibrant world, often have more mental problems than those who are born into an empty world."
"I understand. Thanks."
After this conversation, Lin An basically locked on the answer.
Ye Ju was indeed in danger at the moment, but it was not the suicidal danger she had thought.
It is the risk of 'self-identity death' where her emotions are completely disappearing.
She does have apathy, but not to the point of complete loss of emotion.
She had a period of rich emotions, and she missed that period very much.
She believed that once she lost all her emotions, she would be dead.
Therefore, she has been using various methods to keep herself touched by human emotions.
The wrist-cutting when we first met was not suicide, but a human emotion of letting oneself feel the "pain" through wrist-cutting.
Dismembering poultry in the toilet, the more expressionless her face became, the more it revealed another kind of extreme pain in which she had lost the emotion of 'fear' and could not even feel the slightest bit of pain.
Letting him kiss Li Baiwei, dominating Li Baiwei on the wall and bed, and going out with Li Baiwei in a bunny girl costume is because he wants to maintain his human emotions through romantic feelings.
