Chapter 188 Hero Complex
When hostages' lives and safety are controlled by the robbers, they are prone to developing a sense of psychological dependence, placing all their hopes in the hands of the robbers and becoming overwhelmed with gratitude if they can keep them alive. In extreme cases, they may even help the robbers fight against others.
This phenomenon is called the Stockholm effect in psychology.
Different from Stockholm syndrome, but very similar is the "hero complex" - when encountering danger, the body's phenylethylamine secretion level will increase, causing the heart rate to accelerate, and the person will have a great affection for the "hero" who saved him.
At this moment, the person who broke in through the window and knocked the robber unconscious was like a god to the two hostages.
Just now, the other party attacked the bandits so quickly, it was so fast that the naked eye could not keep up.
When the hero turned around.
They suddenly discovered that—
The person who saved them was not a muscular town policeman.
Instead, she was a rather thin and delicate girl who even looked like she had just reached adulthood.
Just now, the black-haired girl had her back to them, so her face couldn't be seen clearly. After slowly slowing the car to a stop, she turned around, her eyes softening, and gave them a warm smile.
"You weren't scared, were you?"
The black-haired girl is extremely beautiful.
This kind of beauty is not at all aggressive.
It would be a pity to look at her less, but if you look at her more, you will be distracted and unable to take your eyes off her.
This smile, like the warm color that melts the ice and snow, instantly transforms the sharp thorns standing all over the body into soft spring water, and is like the gurgling rain, dripping into the heart and watering the flowers in the heart.
It is so beautiful that it is untouchable.
The two hostages gasped.
But it was not because of the wounds that were still bleeding, but because of the scene in front of him that was destined to be unforgettable.
Tong Wanwan was a little worried when she didn't get a response from the hostage.
She held onto the chair, moved closer to the two of them, and repeated, "Are you okay?"
The girl was wearing dark black bulletproof armor, which added a bit of awe-inspiring aura to her, but it did not make people feel scared.
On the contrary, this kind of righteousness made them feel at ease from the bottom of their hearts.
They even considered the bloodstains on her fists to be a symbol of bravery.
This time, the two of them managed to come back to their senses, nodded repeatedly, and competed to answer "It's okay".
Tong Wanwan lowered her gaze to the wounds on their bodies.
Each hostage had injuries ranging from minor to serious. The clothes of these two gentlemen were stained red with blood, yet they managed to put on a respectable smile...
She sighed silently: What a strong mental quality.
"I'm an intern at the medical center," Tong Wanwan said, opening the car door. "Please get out with me and go get your wound treated."
After he finished speaking, the two hostages' eyes widened at the same time: "Medical Center?!"
The scene of breaking into the house through the window was far less frightening than it is now.
With the skills of this benefactor lady, they would believe her without hesitation even if she claimed to be a member or captain of a certain special police team.
But calling it a medical institution... and an intern, that's just unreasonable.
"?" Tong Wanwan blinked and belatedly explained, "I'm from the First Federal Military Academy and not a local resident of Bernard."
The hostage suddenly realized.
No wonder she is so skilled, you can't tell from her petite appearance.
And after she came out of the combat state, she seemed like a different person: from a brave and heroic female warrior, she turned into a well-behaved and quiet girl who was popular and loved in the school.
But at the same time, the hostages couldn't help but feel depressed, and even felt chest tightness and melancholy.
Miss Hero, it turns out you're not from Bernard Town...
Afterwards, Tong Wanwan pulled the robbers out of the car and handed them over to the town police. She then escorted the two hostages back to the medical vehicle to be treated with the other injured.
Post-accident handling is always urgent and busy.
The A1 team helped take the unconscious, injured, and wailing criminals back to the supervision center, awaiting further interrogation and disposal.
After dealing with the robbers, they helped the medical team to send the seriously injured townspeople back to the hospital or carry them on stretchers to medical vehicles for temporary first aid.
As for the remaining people who were only slightly injured and could not be taken care of for the time being, they used their more basic medical knowledge to treat the wounds of the townspeople.
At this moment, they all forgot their identity as students.
When the town police need their support, they can be negotiators who calmly deal with criminals, or they can be soldiers who persevere in lurking and bravely launch raids.
When the injured need their help, they can be the most patient and gentle "angels in black".
Because they were too focused on rescue, the students did not notice that a town resident had secretly turned on the light computer.
It seems like he's filming something...
The two-week public welfare assistance will officially end tomorrow.
Knowing that the students were about to leave, the medical institute and the duty department specially held a farewell party to thank them for their careful help.
Returning to the First Federal Military Academy and sitting back in the classroom after two weeks' absence, the students of Class A1 suddenly realized that they seemed to have changed a lot.
I became calmer and more focused, and a special strength was born in my heart.
It’s like... in the confusion, I became more determined about responsibility and belief, and began to embark on the road of moving forward with a heavy burden.
On the day of returning to school, the teaching instructor did not arrange any other courses. He only required the students to write and submit a complete internship report in class. Once the time was up, they could leave school.
Tong Wanwan returned home from the military academy with the luggage in the storage space and the gifts given by the medical sisters.
Before returning, she did not inform Mr. Marshal and Daya and Savannah who were staying in the pet shop, but just told them that she would probably be back in the next two days.
She wanted to give them a "surprise".
Tong Wanwan quietly connected to the villa system, turned off the reminder sound when entering the door, and tiptoed into the living room.
By evening, the sky was mostly dark.
When she walked into the living room, Tong Wanwan did not see the two children.
However, the door of their original pet room was half-open, and one could peek through the crack in the door to see the game cabin in use.
Daya and Savannah had already transformed this pet room into their own playroom. Whenever they had free time, they would go in and play.
It seemed that Daya and Savannah were still playing the holographic game and had not noticed her return at all.
Tong Wanwan suppressed the smile on her lips, thinking that this was a good opportunity to give them a surprise.
She passed by the restaurant and was suddenly startled.
I just glanced at her casually out of the corner of my eye and saw that the person cooking in the kitchen was clearly...
Tong Wanwan stopped in disbelief and turned her eyes back in shock.
In the kitchen is——
Her Marshal.
I will post another chapter later. I have been too busy these past two days.
Merry Christmas, my dears! ! (`ω∩)
