His current tone is clear and articulate, a typical broadcasting tone, and you can tell at once that he is a well-educated person.

Especially the faint smile on the other person's face, which made Lin Mo think that the other person also had schizophrenia, and the one who spoke just now was the other person's secondary personality.

"If you had done this earlier, everything would have been fine." Lin Mo snorted coldly.

The man opposite smiled and said, "You didn't even use the knife just now."

What he said made a lot of sense, and Lin Mo was speechless.

Lin Mo decided not to talk about these useless things.

"Then I'll ask again, and you answer it carefully."

"You ask!"

"Are you a wise man?"

"Yes, but that's just a nickname. I'm just an ordinary old man who has read more books than ordinary people."

"Haha, if you were so modest just now, I wouldn't have to do the surgery. Let me ask you again, do you know that the entire insane asylum is fake?"

"I know. It's because I was the first to realize this that the novelist locked me up here. But then again, I have to thank him. I don't like crowds. I like quietness. It's nice to read here when I have nothing to do."

"Is the novelist real or fake?" Lin Mo's question was a little problematic, because the comparison between reality and falsehood requires a reference.

If we use the real world as a reference, everything here is fake.

As a result, the wise man answered very well.

"Reality and falsehood are sometimes the same thing. Just look at this room. Is it real or fake? Look at me again. Am I fake? To some extent, yes, but also no. Just like what you think is real, if you look at it from a higher dimension, it may be more fake."

This answer is very philosophical.

Those philosophical works of wise men were not read in vain.

Lin Mo understood.

Next, Lin Mo began to ask about the dean.

The wise man said that the dean was a VIP, which means a very important person in the novel. Lin Mo asked the wise man if he was a VIP. The wise man nodded and said, "Yes, but I am only VIP3, while the dean is VIP6."

Anyway, in the mental hospital, one has great power, second only to the novelist.

Sometimes, it can even constrain novelists.

As he spoke, the wise man began to talk about philosophy and academics, and Lin Mo quickly stopped him.

He is not here to attend the class.

"Do you know that the dean is missing?" Lin Mo asked.

The wise man nodded: "I know."

"Then do you know who is vying for the position of dean?"

"I know. There are only a few people who have hope, but in my opinion, none of them are good enough. But there is a little guy who has split out a secondary personality and has some hope. That little guy is quite interesting..."

"Jesse?"

“So you knew that too!”

"He came to see you?" Lin Mo suddenly realized this.

"Yes, I did. The situation was like this. Originally, I didn't want to talk too much to the little guy, but he suddenly got angry and roared and growled. His whole body was covered with hair, the kind of black hair that wild animals have. He looked like a blind bear. I had no choice but to persuade him with kind words. Finally, he left."

Lin Mo smiled.

At that time, the wise man was probably terrified.

"Did you come here two days ago?"

"Not two days ago, but yesterday."

“…”

"So, you are also interested in competing for a position in the yard?" The wise man chuckled.

"Can I do it?" Lin Mo asked back.

"Okay, why not? I can see that both you and him have hope, but his hope is a little bigger than yours, but they are the same. In this case, why not fight for it? There is no harm anyway. Otherwise, why did you come to me, right?"

The wise are really smart.

But the novelist must have tampered with the description of the wise man's character, making him a person of low quality and opportunistic. Perhaps this is the so-called role balance, because this world does not allow for overly perfect people.

The same is true in novels.

"Since you said so, why don't I try for it too?" At this moment, Lin Mo felt like he was wearing a yellow robe and was 'forced' to become emperor.

The wise man saw through Lin Mo's intention and said hurriedly, "You must get it. You can definitely do it. I support you."

Lin Mo didn't believe this at all.

But this is better. A wise man with weaknesses is a good wise man.

Lin Mo asked him, if he wanted to fight for it, what should he do.

"The little guy's secondary personality has already met with the managers of Wards 1, 2, and 4, and said hello. Now the only one missing is the manager of Ward 3. It seems that you are one step slower than him now. If you chase him step by step, it will definitely not work because he is already ahead of you. So if you want to win, you must take him by surprise and overtake him on the curve." The wise man seemed to have a plan.

"How to overtake?" Lin Mo asked him.

"Don't meet the manager of Ward 4 for now. Go to Ward 3 and compete with him for the support of the manager of Ward 3. If you get the support of the manager of Ward 3 before him, or even severely damage him, you can overtake him." The wise man's words coincided with Lin Mo's thoughts.

At least the other party didn't play tricks on this point.

They are all smart people, and the wise ones know very well that if they resort to tricks at this time, they will be seeking death.

Lin Mo already knew a lot about the situation in Ward 3 based on a quick read of the novelist's manuscript, including how to enter Ward 3 and the general situation in the ward.

Lin Mo had no idea how much the businessman knew.

But no matter how much he knows, Lin Mo has to make this move.

Unless he chooses to leave the asylum right now.

But even if he left the asylum, it would be useless. If the businessman became the director of the asylum in the future and came to cause trouble for him, it would be difficult to defend himself.

If you are not careful, you might be caught by the other party again.

By then, facing a businessman who has absolute power and is already the dean, the situation would be really bad.

Even if not for himself, Lin Mo wanted to help Xiao Jiexi.

If the businessman becomes the dean, he will definitely completely imprison Xiao Jiexi's main personality, or even completely erase this main personality.

Lin Mo, a kind-hearted person, will definitely do his best to stop the evil from gaining power.

Besides, even if we put all this aside, becoming the yard of a mental asylum seems to be quite exciting.

It's worth the effort.

Of course, Lin Mo did not forget to ask the wise man how to "go home".

"You mean, from North America back to Great China?" The wise man thought for a moment after hearing Lin Mo's request. He stood up and walked to a bookshelf and took out a map.

This is a map of the real world, with a wide ocean between the two large states.

"It's a bit difficult." The wise man frowned.

It can be seen that this question is really difficult.

"I need to think about it. It will take some time."

The wise man's expression was very serious this time, and it was obvious that he was really considering this issue seriously.

Lin Mo definitely doesn't have time to waste here.

"Then think about it. I'll come to see you next time."

Lin Mo had to go do some work.

When he was about to leave, the wise man hesitated to speak. Lin Mo saw what he wanted to say and told him to speak quickly if he had something to say.

"Is this spiritual creation you are wearing on your head Jesse's?" The wise man was referring to the paper bag.

Lin Mo nodded.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that although many patients in Ward 4 have similar paper bags, there are still some differences in the details.

The only thing was that the paper bag on his head was exactly the same as the one on Jesse's head.

"That means there is a secondary personality that has been separated." The wise man looked around.

Although he couldn't see his mother and sister, he seemed to be able to feel them.

At this moment, the younger sister was hanging upside down above the wise man's head. She wanted to reach out and grab his hair, but when she saw her mother shaking her head, she retracted her hand.

"Take my advice. Other people's secondary personalities are of no use to you. In most cases, they will affect your thinking and you may even be controlled by them." said the wise man.

Lin Mo glanced at the wise man, then looked at his mother and sister beside him.

My sister wanted to go over and strangle the old man, but my mother stopped her.

"He's talking nonsense." The sister was furious.

"Carol, you have to believe your brother." Mom was calm.

Lin Mo thanked the wise man.

He could see that the wise man had no ill intention in saying this, it was just a simple reminder.

The wise man also saw that Lin Mo was not particularly willing to accept his suggestion.

"But it doesn't matter. After being created, this kind of spiritual creation will disappear if it is separated from the Creator for too long, so even if there is an impact, it won't be too big."

The wise man's words made Lin Mo pause as he was about to leave.

“Can spiritual creations disappear?”

"right."

Lin Mo remembered.

When he was in Ward 1, he took the flashlight from the nurse, and at the end, the back half of the flashlight had become transparent, and his mother seemed to have reminded him of something similar.

The paper bag and the flashlight are actually spiritual creations. The flashlight will slowly disappear when it is separated from the nurse, and the paper bag will also disappear when it is separated from Jesse.

Lin Mo had been wearing the paper bag most of the time, so he didn't check it carefully. At this moment, he hurriedly took off the paper bag and checked it.

Sure enough, I found that half of the paper bag had become transparent, a bit like a transparent plastic bag.

"Will this thing disappear?" Lin Mo asked the wise man.

The latter nodded: "Of course, unless you find the person who created it, Jesse, or that secondary personality, who can repair and replenish mental power. It's like an electrical appliance, you are just the user, and only the creator can charge it."

"After this thing disappears, what will happen to the spiritual body attached to it?" Lin Mo asked.

"Like this thing, it will disappear."

Lin Mo could guess the answer.

"Disappear?" Lin Mo looked at the half-transparent paper bag in his hand, thoughtfully.

Then he waved goodbye to the wise man.

He has asked all the questions that should be asked, and all that remains is concrete action.

After coming out of the library where the wise man was, Nie Hong was still looking for the entrance outside. Seeing Lin Mo walking out of the wall out of thin air, Nie Hong asked: "How did you get in?"

Lin Mo waved his hand: "This requires a little skill, let's go, there is something to do."

His plan was to go to Ward 3, find the manager of Ward 3 before the businessman, and get the other party's support first.

Of course this is the ideal situation.

If other problems arise, or if the manager of Ward 3 does not cooperate, Lin Mo has an emergency response plan.

That is to kill this manager directly.

If the manager is eliminated, the businessman who wants to become the dean will be faced with a situation where one of the three is missing.

Anyway, Lin Mo will not let the other party succeed.

From the ghost placed in the merchant's shadow, Lin Mo knew that the merchant had entered Ward 3. He had wasted some time and must hurry up.

Entering Ward 3 is more troublesome.

This is not an open ward, the kind that you walk into and enter using a special method.

To enter Ward 3, according to the rules written by the novelist, one needs to obtain permission from the novelist or the dean. The businessman went to see the novelist to obtain permission.

However, because Lin Mo had read the original manuscript of the novelist's setting for Ward 3, he knew that in addition to the previous rules, there was actually another way to enter.

This method is stated in the original setting book.

"Ward 3 is a dangerous prison where the most terrifying patients in the asylum are held. Anyone who has obtained the novelist's or the director's permission can only explore Ward 3 from the entrance and leave through the entrance. Except for one person, the manager of Ward 3, who has a secret passage to enter and exit Ward 3. This secret passage is in the closet of Ward 101. You need to knock on the closet door in the following order, wait for a response from the closet, and then open the closet to enter this secret passage."

"But you must remember that some strange things will happen in this secret passage, and you may run into the manager of Ward 3."

"Anyone who enters without permission may die!"

Lin Mo guessed that the businessman must not have read the novelist's original manuscript, otherwise he would definitely know the existence of this secret passage.

Now, Lin Mo plans to meet the manager of Ward 3 directly through the secret passage.

His purpose of going to Ward 3 was to persuade the manager, and also to kill him if he remained stubborn.

Since the secret passage can allow him to see the manager directly, Lin Mo will of course choose this path.

There is a patient sleeping in Ward 101.

Lin Mo went over and called him, but he wouldn't wake up.

He remembered that the novelist had created a type of patient whose symptom was drowsiness.

It's not just ordinary sleepiness, it's extreme sleepiness.

It is possible to sleep for months without waking up.

This kind of patient cannot be awakened.

Lin Mo gave up.

He walked to the closet and opened it to take a look.

There's nothing inside, completely empty.

After closing the closet door, Lin Mo began to knock on the closet door in a specific order according to the method written in the novelist's original manuscript.

After knocking for a while, Lin Mo stopped.

But the knocking continued.

There was someone knocking at the closet door.

The other party seemed to realize that he was discovered and stopped immediately. Lin Mo took the opportunity to open the closet door.

The inner wall disappeared.

A downward channel appeared.

This is the secret passage.

Lin Mo asked Nie Hong to cover the rear while he went in first.

As soon as he entered the passage, he felt a chill coming towards him. The original manuscript said that some strange things would happen in this passage. Lin Mo now clenched his fists and looked around. He was quite looking forward to it.
