“Nonsense!”
Bai Ye stared at the mature face in front of him, feeling inexplicably angry. A stupid old man like Dean Bai... turned out to be? Himself ten years later?
My current self and my future self were both pulled into a horror script-killing game at the same time. They could even appear in the same time and space at the same time. This is too ridiculous!
Bai Ye didn't believe a word of it! If Dean Bai was himself ten years later, then the magician looked exactly like him, so could he also be himself?
Bang--!
His mind was in a mess when suddenly, a heavy punch hit his face.
"Don't let your imagination run wild. Do you want to be executed by the light screen?"
Dean Bai stood there indifferently, without moving a step. With a swish, he calmly took off the latex medical gloves on his hands and put them in his pocket.
Bai Ye was hit by a punch and felt a burning pain on his face. He quickly took two steps back silently and put his whole body into a defensive alert state.
There was a red boxing glove floating in the air. Bai Ye recognized it as an offensive krypton gold item, and it was eager to continue hitting.
"A spineless old man."
Bai Ye spat. Dean Bai, that old guy, probably couldn't beat him, so he could only buy these props to play tricks.
However, the punch he received just now interrupted all the random thoughts in his mind. Bai Ye calmed down and stopped thinking about it. His thoughts were constantly monitored by the light screen. Who knew what he would think of that would lead to his execution.
"No guts?"
Dean Bai laughed contemptuously: "You are a coward? You, why didn't you dare to ask Su Yi anything when you saw him in the last instance?"
Bai Ye retorted: "What are you asking? What's there to ask?"
"You were holding back a lot of questions but didn't dare to ask anything, waiting for Su Yi to recognize you, but then you discovered that he really ignored you the whole time, so you ran to stop him in a hurry..."
Dean Bai spoke lightly, and every word pierced Bai Ye's nerves:
"I pestered Su Yi and said a lot of useless things, but in the end, I still didn't dare to ask the most crucial question -
"Did he really date you?"
It felt like a sharp knife stabbed his heart. Bai Ye was extremely furious. The burning saw was pulling at his nerves. He wished he could tear Dean Bai's mouth apart.
How could he not have dated Su Yi? He was clearly...
"He was obviously your serious boyfriend, but after the college entrance examination, you couldn't find Su Yi. You ran back to school to ask the teachers, and they said: Su Yi must have gone abroad to study and didn't take the college entrance examination at all."
Dean Bai seemed to be able to read Bai Ye's mind and accurately told him what was in Bai Ye's mind:
"You were so anxious that you went crazy, looking for him everywhere. Which country did Su Yi go to? What school did he go to? Why did he suddenly go abroad? There was absolutely no news. His address had moved, his phone number had been cancelled, and there were no replies to messages on QQ, WeChat, or any other social media platform. It was as if Su Yi had never existed."
Bai Ye was stabbed hard, and his fist clenched in an instant. He stared at Dean Bai fiercely. The old man stood there, like a devil in white, and told all his past experiences cruelly and calmly.
In the summer after graduating from high school, he did try his best to find Su Yi's whereabouts. He asked all his classmates. Later, even his classmates felt that something was wrong with him. They asked him why he was looking for Su Yi like this? You two are not familiar with each other.
Bai Ye didn't want to pay attention to them. These idiots didn't know that he was Su Yi's boyfriend.
Until two of his good friends asked him, "Why are you in such a hurry to find Su Yi?"
At that time, I yelled back in frustration: "My boyfriend is missing? Aren't you anxious?"
To this day, Bai Ye still remembers the shocked expressions of his two friends. They stammered and asked:
"You...you guys...when did it happen?"
At that moment, Bai Ye finally realized that there was something wrong with the whole thing!
All the classmates, no matter how close they were, did not remember anything about him and Su Yi. In their opinion, they were not familiar with Su Yi at all, except that they had a little interaction during the King's Game, and then everyone forgot about it. He and Su Yi were not in the same class, and no one saw them meet again, and they didn't even say a few words.
Bai Ye recalled himself at that time. He looked at the confused faces of his classmates and for the first time in his life he felt a chill in his heart. He could still feel the panic in his back even now.
"This incident alarmed your parents."
Dean Bai said coldly, his low voice echoing in the ward:
"My parents discovered that their son was not only a homosexual, but also had a self-imagined boyfriend. He was going crazy the entire summer, looking for that high school classmate he had barely spoken to..."
With a rustling sound, Dean Bai's hands rubbed in his pockets. He slowly took out a piece of A4 paper folded into a square and unfolded it calmly.
When he saw the piece of paper, Bai Ye's fist suddenly trembled slightly. He had a premonition that something was there!
He had seen that piece of paper before, and it was full of nonsense. He didn't believe a single word of it!
Dean Bai was unwilling to let him off so easily. He lowered his head, glanced at the black words on the paper, and read out the following sentence lightly:
"Your parents took you to see a psychiatrist and had a checkup. The results showed:
"The patient, Bai Ye, was diagnosed with mild to moderate delusional disorder."
"Bullshit!" Bai Ye yelled at Dean Bai, "How is this possible? Is it just a figment of my imagination?"
He tore this medical report to pieces right in front of the doctor's parents! I don't know how it ended up in this old man's hands...
At that time, that crappy psychologist speculated that he might have suffered from excessive pressure from the college entrance examination, which destroyed the originally stable mental functions of his brain nerves, leading to great abnormalities in cognition and emotions, and he imagined that he was in love with the handsome boy in the next class.
...It's totally insane!
At that time, Bai Ye felt that everyone in the world was crazy!
He held Su Yi's soft palm, stroked her black hair, and walked beside him on the tree-lined path at the back door of the school, with Su Yi lowering her head and the spots of light leaking from the leaves flowing in her beautiful eyes...
All the time he spent with Su Yi was so real, but now he said that it was all just his imagination because of the pressure from the college entrance examination?!
They are actually not familiar with each other at all?
Bullshit!
Bai Ye denounced the shitty hospital! He went berserk in front of the psychiatrist and his parents. All the accumulated anger of not being understood over the summer vacation, the anxiety of not being able to find Su Yi, and the inexplicable sense of terror burst out.
Apart from his own memory, no one can now testify that he and Su Yi are more than just ordinary classmates.
These messy emotions grabbed Bai Ye's limbs and kept pulling him, making him feel as painful as being torn apart by five horses.
How could Su Yi, who was so real in his heart, become... all? False imagination?!
In the cold clinic that smelled of disinfectant, the young Bai Ye, who had just graduated from high school, was imprisoned in the room like a trapped beast, with torn diagnosis reports scattered on the ground like snowflakes.
The psychiatrist was sitting in a reclining chair, looking at him with a compassionate look, and then he turned to his parents and whispered:
"Your son? Has he become so irritable and angry recently?"
Bai Ye turned his head and suddenly saw his parents looking at him with compassionate eyes, as if they were looking at a wild beast in a cage.
Their faces were filled with sadness, confusion, and hesitation. They no longer spoke directly to him, but answered the doctor:
“It seems so.”
The psychiatrist nodded and said, "People with delusional disorder may sometimes be irritable. I suggest that they be hospitalized for observation for a period of time."
The furious 18-year-old Bai Ye stood there. No one paid attention to what he said. Everyone looked at his anger with a bit of sympathy.
Finally, the mother wiped her eyes and said to him with tears in her eyes: "Just stay here...you will be fine!"
During the summer vacation after the college entrance examination, the most leisurely time in life, Bai Ye lived a life of doubt in that hospital.
"In that hospital, you were forced to undergo one hypnosis treatment and two drug treatments."
Dean Bai crumpled up the medical record, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it on the ground casually.
As time passed, any line of words on this report could no longer stir his emotions. Dean Bai spoke in a calm tone, as if he was narrating someone else's story:
"During the hypnosis treatment, the doctor kept asking you: How do you know if you and [Student Su] are boyfriend and girlfriend? Are there any clear confessions or words to confirm the relationship?
"You said you did, but under the psychologist's more in-depth questioning, you found that you seemed to have seen the confession scene, but you couldn't tell the time and place, and couldn't describe your conversation at that time... It seemed as if you had never confessed.
"The doctor judged that your delusional disorder might be a bit serious and you need to stay in the hospital for a longer time."
Bai Ye remained silent. He realized at that moment that he must not stay in the hospital like this. If he continued with this treatment, he would really go crazy even if he was not crazy yet.
During the observation period, he gradually changed his words and admitted that perhaps he did not confess. He followed the psychologist's words and said that he might indeed have delusional disorder. He mentioned several times that he was under great pressure from the college entrance examination and said that he could not remember many details about Su Yi.
After another week of observation, Bai Ye was discharged smoothly from the hospital and went to college pretending to be a normal person.
Su Yi's matter was like a thorn, stuck in his throat all the time, poking at his throat. What was Bai Ye thinking? He didn't understand. If they were really in love, how could other people be completely unaware of it?
If they have never been in a relationship and everything is fine, why would they imagine so many untrue things?
After entering university, Bai Ye appeared normal on the surface, but he was still crazy about finding Su Yi in his heart. As long as he could see Su Yi, all his problems would be solved.
He spent a lot of effort and finally found out Su Yi's whereabouts from former seniors.
This senior did not take the college entrance examination and went to study abroad at M University in M country. Su Yi had added him on QQ before and asked about some things about applying for an offer.
"Your parents will definitely not allow you to go." Dean Bai said:
"Going to a foreign country to find an imaginary high school classmate whom you don't know at all sounds like a fantasy. Your parents refused to give you money, so you had to work and save money, and finally saved enough money for a plane ticket to Country M..."
Both Bai Ye knew what happened next. While waiting for the flight with great anticipation, he was pulled into the [Thriller Script Killing].
Silence spread in the ward.
Bai Ye remained silent this time. Having said that, even if he wanted to deny that a stupid old man like Dean Bai had nothing to do with him, it would be difficult to deceive his own reason.
...Dean Bai might indeed be himself ten years later.
As for the reason for this, Bai Ye couldn't explain it, and his brain couldn't think about such a complicated question. He asked directly:
"What on earth are you doing here?"
If Dean Bai is really himself ten years later, he was pulled into the [Thriller Script Killing] at the age of 19, and the time in the script killing does not count. If we move forward another ten years in reality, Dean Bai will be his 29-year-old self.
"If you are really the 29-year-old me, then where is the 29-year-old Su Yi? Why are you always pestering the 19-year-old Su Yi?"
Dean Bai raised his eyes, stared at the young Bai Ye, paused for a moment, and said softly:
"There is no 29-year-old Su Yi."
Bai Ye frowned: "…What did you say?"
Dean Bai: "Don't you understand? There is no 29-year-old Su Yi in this world, because he didn't live to that age. He died at the age of 19."
