Simon looked at the person in front of him in a daze. This was the man in black who appeared in the morning.
He looked around again, and there was no one else around.
Simon thought of the other two Ming Huans he had known.
One is the little baby in the land of the snake spirit's soul.
One was the young man who sat next to me on the plane when I came here.
He looked carefully at the man in front of him.
The man, taller than she was, stood on the steps, looking down at her from above. His green eyes felt strangely familiar. Not only were his eyes strangely familiar, but even his nose, his lips, and the hint of a smile lingering on them were strangely familiar.
So Simon said, "Have we met?"
Ming Huan rolled his eyes: "Idiot!"
Simon covered his head and squatted down in pain.
He asked unwillingly, "Did you take a plane with me three days ago?"
Ming Huan said, "Nonsense!"
Simon asked again, "Have you ever been to the place of the snake spirit's soul with me?"
Ming Huan snorted coldly. It was said that psychologists had high IQs, but he had only just now realized that he was a demon. This meant that his IQ was average.
Simon groaned in pain and said, "No, this is impossible!"
Ming Huan said disdainfully: "Stupid human!"
Simon's mind wandered to his black cat. Every time Blackie looked at him, he always had that "stupid human" look in his eyes.
Ming Huan looked at the young man squatting in the corner, his expression twisted and painful, his slender neck slightly red. For no reason, he thought of the delicious food just now.
That's right, Ming Huan originally planned to return to the underworld first and then come to find Simon, but he changed his mind halfway - he should say hello first, tell this mortal that he is his exclusive delicacy, and then do his business.
Otherwise, who knows what kind of strange creatures would haunt Simon during his absence. Maintaining chastity is the first rule that must be followed by the Demon Lord!
Ming Huan looked at the young man crouching in the corner, huddled in pain, revealing the beautiful curve of his back. He said distractedly, "There's something I need to tell you! I'm the Lord of the Demon Realm. A while ago, I was in trouble, so I transformed into a black cat and followed you around. Now I've mostly recovered, so to repay your kindness, I'm allowing you to be my exclusive lover. From now on, you must be a chaste woman and avoid getting too close to any gods, ghosts, or demons, otherwise... Of course, I won't treat you unfairly. When I return, I'll take you to the Demon Realm."
Simon's head was buzzing. In fact, he didn't hear what Ming Huan said. He just recalled over and over again the typical symptoms of schizophrenia when he was in school.
Hallucinations, auditory hallucinations, delusions of connection, delusions of grandeur...
No! Simon raised his head in pain. Schizophrenia is known as the cancer of the mind. He was perfectly healthy and would never...
But before Simon could think clearly, he felt a strong force pressing towards him.
The man in black dragged himself up from the ground and pressed Simon against the wall.
"Remember, you belong to me!" Ming Huan hooked Simon's chin, and his huge body pressed tightly against Simon's. He ignored the struggle of the person under him and forcibly kissed the other's crimson lips.
Huh! That’s right, that’s the smell! Ming Huan felt every pore in his body relax. This must be the real reason why he wanted to turn back halfway!
I really want to taste the flavor of the other person's lips and teeth. I really want to pry open the other person's teeth and catch the other person's tongue like catching prey.
Ming Huan is the Demon Lord, and he will do whatever he thinks of immediately.
But he never expected that when his tongue had just pried open the other person's teeth and was about to probe inside, he suddenly felt a sharp pain at the tip of his tongue.
Ming Huan suddenly let go of Simon. He saw blood on the other's lips, felt pain on the tip of his tongue, and the smell of blood filled his mouth.
Surprisingly, he was bitten by his own prey!
"Why!" Ming Huan's expression was grim.
Simon wiped the corner of his mouth, an action that showed obvious disgust.
"I don't like bestiality!" Simon said simply, reaching out his hand to push the man in front of him away.
He really hoped that when he pushed it out, he could push something solid, so that he could prove that all this was not an illusion.
But unfortunately, when he wanted to push the other party hard, the other party's agile and majestic body turned into a wisp of black smoke like ashes and disappeared into the air.
How dare this human reject me? I'll go back and finish my business, then I'll come back to settle the score with you!
Ming Huan returned to the demon world in anger, leaving Simon alone, disheveled in the wind on the empty staircase.
Was it an illusion? Simon touched his lips with his hand and returned to his room in a daze.
Inside the room, the light blue screen was flickering.
Simon supported his chin and pondered the exaggerated delusions of Ming Huan, the Lord of the Demon Realm.
Light Blue said, "Master, what's wrong with you? The chrysanthemum tea is ready, you have to drink it."
Simon shook his head weakly: "I don't want to drink."
Light Blue immediately transformed into a young man in a plaid shirt, reached out to touch Simon's forehead, and then looked at his eyelids.
"Hey, your physical indicators are normal! Why do you look so listless?" Qianlan was confused.
But Simon just felt that something was wrong with him. He thought for a moment and said, "Please call a psychiatric emergency room for me."
Soon, Simon was sitting in front of the city's psychiatrist.
I never thought that one day I would come to the psychiatric department for a checkup. What I never expected was that the young director of the psychiatric department, Dr. Yu, who was examining me, was actually one of the people who surrounded my junior sister Zhao Lingling the day before and asked for her phone number.
Originally, the psychology conference was held in the auditorium of the city's mental hospital.
"You said you saw a strange man in black?" Director Yu remembered very clearly that the cute and lively Zhao Lingling didn't even look at the guy in front of her, but hugged his arm.
I never thought that one day you would fall into my hands!
Director Yu was secretly happy.
Simon nodded and said, "Yes, I'm a psychology major. I know a little bit about psychiatry, but I'm not an expert. So, I'd like you to help me."
Director Yu stretched his muscles and began to give Simon a full body examination.
An orientation check is inevitable, as are conditioned reflexes. Calculation and cognitive abilities must not be left behind, and even the content of delusions must be carefully examined.
"There are no monsters in this world!" Director Yu said with certainty. "Well, even if we take a step back and assume that monsters really do exist, it doesn't make sense to say that a cat you picked up on the roadside is the Demon Lord!" Director Yu began to use his intelligence to think about the problem. "If it really is the Demon Lord, what is his purpose in being your cat? It can't be to eat dried fish!"
Simon sighed and said, "That's why I can't figure it out. I asked everyone around me, and no one has ever seen a man in black like this. Besides, everything he did to me was illogical...so I..."
Director Yu smiled with a look of satisfaction. "So this is definitely a psychotic delusion. Think about it, if he really was the Demon Lord and had taken a fancy to you, he would have immediately abducted you and done whatever he wanted to you. You wouldn't have come to me, right? But don't worry. What can I say? Having delusions, hallucinations, and auditory hallucinations doesn't necessarily mean it's schizophrenia. I've never seen a schizophrenic with such a good sense of reality."
Simon nodded. He also felt that his sense of reality was quite good, but... Director Yu's words made sense. The Demon Lord should have boundless magical powers. How could a forced kiss be interrupted midway by a bite from him? So this was all just an illusion!
Director Yu glanced at Simon slyly and asked maliciously, "Sometimes, if a person is severely stimulated, he or she will develop psychotic symptoms. Doctor Simon, have you experienced any major stimulation in the past two days? Emotional shock, heartbreak, or something like that..."
Simon thought to himself: I'm not madly in love with my junior sister! When she told me she was a cross-dresser, I felt calm inside!
Simon said, "Maybe it's because of a broken heart... Hey, little sister..."
Simon stopped talking here. No one could have imagined that the junior sister was a painted skin, and even more so that this painted skin was a man. Of course, the most surprising thing was that he only realized his sexual orientation after hundreds of years.
Simon's face unconsciously revealed a melancholy look. This melancholy look caught Director Yu's eyes, which made him feel very happy! This guy in front of him, although he was more handsome than him, had a better figure than him, and his psychology major was better at picking up girls than the psychiatry major, but what happened? He was still dumped by the junior sister!!!
Director Yu was so overjoyed at the thought that he started to treat Simon with extra care: "Oh, that must be the result of a broken heart. Don't worry. How about this? I'm on duty today, so you stay in the inpatient department for two days and observe. If it's schizophrenia, you need medication. If it's just mental stress, you're a psychiatrist, so you can try to relieve yourself!"
Director Yu could barely contain his excitement as he said this. After quickly arranging a bed for Simon, he walked out to the corridor and sent a message to Zhao Lingling on WeChat: "Don't worry about your brother, I'll take care of him. By the way, how about we go out for lunch together tomorrow?"
This WeChat message naturally received no response, but Director Yu didn't mind. He happily put his phone away and continued seeing patients.
Simon, accompanied by Qianlan, walked towards his bed with trepidation.
The ward is a double room with four beds in total, which is prepared for accompanying patients.
When Simon went in, he found that his roommate was not there, so Qianlan helped Simon pack up and chatted with Simon by the way.
"Master, I can't believe that as a psychologist, you would end up in a mental hospital one day!" Qianlan said as she was looking through her own information.
Simon always felt that something was wrong. He asked Light Blue, "Do you know that Xiao Hei is a monster?"
Light Blue remembered the terrifying cat demon and shook her head: "No, it's just an ordinary cat!"
Simon said, "Do you know anything about the Demon Lord?"
Light Blue said, "That's the Supreme Being of the Demon Realm, a big shot. He's going to call the wind and rain and cause rivers of blood to flow. He's definitely not our Xiao Hei!"
Are you kidding? Even if the cat demon has some magical powers, it's not even on the same level as the Demon Lord, okay? The master must have been really stimulated this time, and he even imagined that the Demon Lord would forcefully kiss him. Alas, poor master.
Simon said: "I don't feel like I've been heartbroken..." Not only did he not feel like he had been heartbroken, but Ming Huan also forcefully kissed him against the wall, and he didn't feel any of the depression that a person who has been heartbroken should have.
Light Blue said, "Hey, stop talking. Master, have you forgotten all those defense mechanisms? Emotional isolation, reaction formation, regression, and so on. Some people, because of excessive stimulation, go from being deeply in love to being disgusted by the mere sight of someone!"
Simon remained silent, with his head down, looking even more miserable.
Light Blue comforted Simon, saying, "Master, don't be so pessimistic. Look here! The world's top psychologists all have this problem. They feel embarrassed to greet people unless they've been admitted to a mental hospital. Look at Jung. He saw a woman in white sitting at the head of his bed for a whole year! Oh, yes, Klein, the founder of object relations, also suffered from severe depression in his middle age. And there's also Freud..."
Simon felt that although Qianlankong had only 500T of psychotherapy skills, his level of comforting people was really not that good.
Sitting on the accompanying bed, Qianlan continued, "A great psychologist must have been born in a mental hospital! Just like the Buddha, he must have been reborn from the Avici Hell!"
Before Qianlan could finish her words, she heard the door of the ward creak open.
Two monks walked in from outside.
The two monks were both wearing robes. One of them had a white gauze wrapped around his wrist with a little blood seeping out of the gauze. Simon only needed to take a glance to know that this was a patient who had cut his wrists multiple times.
As for the other monk...
Light Blue was the first to shout, "I didn't call the exorcist, I can't afford it!"
Simon also calmed down from the threat of schizophrenia. He said calmly: "I just used my savings to pay for the hospital bill. You made 20,000 yuan from me last time, but this time I don't have a cent!"
That’s right, one of the two monks who came in was the Zen Master Kūkai who helped Simon subdue the painted-skin monster Amei last night!
But neither of them expected that they would meet unexpectedly in the inpatient department of the mental hospital tonight, and become roommates!
