Chapter 90 Couple Butcher: Deprived Emotions (Extra)

Zhang Ming once thought, if he had not met Zhou Junwei, would he become a normal person and live a normal life?

But he found that there was no such possibility. It was precisely because he was abnormal that he met Zhou Junwei in that hellish behavioral correction room.

After Zhang Ming chased his father for several blocks with a knife, he was labeled with many labels such as "Internet addict teenager", "antisocial personality", "unfilial son", "social scum", and then he was sent to that behavioral correction school.

That's where he met Zhou Junwei.

Zhou Junwei was so different. Others were sent here to quit Internet addiction, quit gambling, or quit violent behavior. They had more or less harmed their families and society. Only Zhou Junwei was sent here to correct his sexual orientation. He looked harmless.

In that era, people had a low acceptance of homosexuality. So Zhou Junwei was isolated. Everyone was afraid of being liked by Zhou Junwei and becoming another homosexual.

Zhou Junwei was a very unpleasant person, and even the therapists didn't like him. Because his treatment was ineffective, no matter how they shocked Zhou Junwei, there was no correction effect.

Zhang Ming was very puzzled. Obviously, as long as Zhou Junwei said that he would no longer like men in the future, or showed disgust and vomiting at those male photos, those people would stop giving him electric shocks. But Zhou Junwei refused to give in. One

day Zhang Ming was assigned to clean the treatment room. He saw Zhou Junwei on the floor. His lips were pale, and even though the electric shocks had stopped for a long time, his muscles were still trembling. He was in pain.

Zhang Ming couldn't help asking, "Zhou Junwei, why don't you pretend that you've been cured?"

"Because my brain is free, I'm free to love anyone and anything." Zhou Junwei showed a weak smile, "No one can deprive me of the right to love. I can't surrender to them."

Zhang Ming thought Zhou Junwei was very interesting. He looked so thin, but his willpower was so strong.

"This is not surrender, this is a strategy. We pretend to be cured, so that we can go out. We will be labeled as 'normal people'." Zhang Ming reminded him.

"After we go out? Do we continue to pretend? How long will it take? If we keep pretending, are we considered to be cured by them? Then are we still the same as before?"

Zhang Ming was stunned by a series of questions. He is not that smart and never thinks about those complicated questions.

"Zhou Junwei, I don't know either. Sometimes I wonder if I am pretending or if I have really been cured." Zhang Ming suddenly remembered that he hadn't touched a computer for many days. He felt disgusted when he saw a computer.

Zhou Junwei recognized Zhang Ming, who was a famous problem student in the school. It was said that he went online to get money and chased his father on the street with a knife. Zhou Junwei was a little afraid of him.

"Zhou Junwei, you dissected a rabbit in the classroom, you must be very brave, why are you scared when you see me?"

"I didn't dissect that rabbit. It was Chen Yuanan who did it. He was curious whether the rabbit's internal organs were the same as those drawn in the biology textbook. I didn't want him to be considered a pervert, so I took the blame for him. I like small animals very much and I won't hurt them. In fact, I really want to work in a zoo. I think the world of animals is more simple. But my father won't agree. He wants me to become a doctor."

"Hey, rumors are so scary. You've heard the rumors about me, too. But they were false. I chased my dad with a knife because I saw him bringing a woman home and having an affair at my house. I was so angry that I chased him with a knife. Sometimes I really wanted to kill him.

Later, my dad felt that the truth would make him lose face, so he made up a rumor that I was chasing him for internet fees. I tried to clarify, but no one believed me, including my mom. They all thought I was addicted. A loser in online games. Very funny, isn't it?"

Zhang Ming continued: "My Internet addiction is also fake. I don't go to the Internet cafe to play games, I go to learn computer technology. I want to be a hacker when I grow up. But I can't get into college, so I can only go to the Internet cafe to study by myself. I want to live in the Internet world in the future. The real world is too complicated and too boring. "

Zhou Junwei looked at Zhang Ming with some surprise. He suddenly felt that they seemed to be the same kind. Because of their introverted personalities, everyone speculated about them with the greatest malice. Obviously, they did nothing wrong.

"Zhou Junwei, be my friend. I don't seem to have many friends."

"Okay. Zhang Ming, you will be my friend from now on. You are my only friend."

Zhang Ming felt very comfortable in this correctional school. He was not addicted to the Internet, and he was good at pretending. Whenever the psychological experts treated him, he would vomit or show pain, and they would end his treatment quickly.

They were very satisfied with the results of Zhang Ming's treatment.

Zhou Junwei was not so lucky. The therapists tried almost all methods, but they still couldn't change Zhou Junwei's cognition. Zhou Junwei was still interested in photos of men, and he still said that he liked men. Zhou

Junwei didn't want to pretend that he was cured. He was not sick and didn't need to be cured.

"It seems that we have to use our trump card." Zhang Ming overheard the therapists say viciously, "Once you enter our place, there is no behavior that cannot be cured."

Zhang Ming made a plan to escape from the correctional school. He even drew a map and went to the office to steal the principal's gold watch and all the cash in the drawer. He planned to take Zhou Junwei away at night.

But he was a step too late. Zhou Junwei

was taken away that night. Zhang Ming didn't know what those people did to Zhou Junwei, and Zhou Junwei refused to say. Zhou Junwei had a scar on his forehead. From that day on, Zhou Junwei changed. He no longer liked men, and of course he didn't like women. He wouldn't like anyone or anything.

Zhou Junwei was finally cured, but he seemed to have lost his emotions.

He remembered everything, remembering that Zhang Ming was his friend, remembering his parents, and even remembering that he loved Chen Yuanan, but he didn't know what love felt like, he couldn't experience emotions, and he couldn't even recall emotions.

Later, Zhang Ming recovered and left the correctional school. His parents didn't want to take care of him, so he went to work odd jobs on his own, day after day. But he never touched a computer again, and forgot his dream of becoming a hacker.

After a few years, he went to work in a zoo. He remembered that Zhou Junwei liked animals, but Zhou Junwei couldn't like anything now, and Zhang Ming felt that he could like it for him.

Not long after Zhang Ming left, Zhou Junwei also recovered. His parents were relieved that his son finally became normal and much more likable than before. Zhou Junwei could face everything calmly, and he would say things that adults liked to hear. He finally learned how to pretend as Zhang Ming said.

He studied in a new school, he did well in his studies and was admitted to a good university. At first, he chose clinical medicine as arranged by his father, but he would vomit when he saw those bloody scenes, and he couldn't complete the anatomy course.

So he chose to change his major. He didn't know what major he should study because he didn't like anything. But he remembered Zhang Ming, his only friend. He remembered that Zhang Ming wanted to be a hacker, but Zhang Ming didn't like to touch computers. Zhou Junwei thought, then study computers.

Zhou Junwei couldn't like anything, but he still remembered that he liked animals. That day he went to the zoo to see the animals, recalling the feelings of the animals in his memory, and then he met Zhang Ming again.

Zhang Ming has changed a lot. He has become a trainer at the zoo. He gets along well with his colleagues and no longer looks like the gloomy boy he was before. Zhou Junwei thinks it's great that Zhang Ming has become a normal person in everyone's eyes.

Zhang Ming is very happy to see him. Even though Zhang Ming has many friends now, he still cares about Zhou Junwei the most.

After they got back in touch, Zhang Ming frequently looked for him. He would do many things with him.

Later, Zhang Ming told him that he was in love with him.

Zhou Junwei was confused. He didn't know what love felt like. He didn't care whether he could feel emotions before, but now he suddenly wanted to know what it felt like.

He started watching a lot of romantic movies and reading romantic novels. He would go to the streets to watch couples date, and even peek at couples having intimate relationships. He really wanted to know what love was.

But the more he watched, the more confused he became. He still didn't know what love was like, people's facial expressions, body language, accelerated heartbeats... all these things related to love were unstable.

Later, he finally found the answer. The human brain is the source of all emotions. If you want to see what love looks like, you can only observe the human brain.

So he designed a game. He set up dangerous situations to induce and amplify the love of couples, and then observed what changes occurred in their brains.

At first, he recruited a large number of couples to participate in the game in the name of sociological experiments. He collected a lot of EEG data from couples. But during the game, those couples were very careless and did not respect his game. Instead, they made all kinds of ridicule and ridicule.

He decided that he would enhance the immersive experience of this game.

The first couple he chose had been married for many years. Zhang Ming said they loved each other very much. He didn't intend to kill them at first, but he was very dissatisfied with their performance when they were playing his game.

They loved each other so much, but in the process of playing the game, in order to seize the chance to survive, they attacked each other and vented all the resentment they had towards their lovers over the years. This was not the result he wanted, so he first electrocuted them to death with the highest level of voltage he set.

Later, Zhou Junwei was curious about what homosexual love would be like. Zhou

Junwei originally wanted to find a gay couple. But after observing for a long time, he found that most gay men did not have a fixed partner, and they did not seem to care more about emotional needs.

Later, Zhou Junwei met a lesbian couple on the way to the zoo. They seemed to be in love. But that was just an appearance.

Zhang Yawen was willing to sacrifice for the other party and gave the other party the right to choose; but Tian Xin chose to electrocute the other party to snatch the chance to survive.

It turns out that love can also be one-sided.

Just like what Zhang Ming did to him.

Zhou Junwei stabbed Tian Xin to death with a knife. After killing them, Zhou Junwei stopped his crazy actions. He felt that the love he saw was not beautiful, and he didn't want to see it anymore. Maybe, it is not a regret not to feel love.

Later, Chen Yuanan was getting married, and he apologized to him, saying that he had hurt Zhou Junwei when he was young, and hoped that he could forgive him.

Zhou Junwei remembered that he had liked Chen Yuanan.

He wanted to play that game again.

Zhang Ming loved him very much and was willing to do anything for him.

This time their luck was very bad. The body was buried too shallowly and was washed away by heavy rain. The police soon found the body.

Zhou Junwei was not afraid of being caught by the police. When he saw Mu Mian again at school, he felt that he wanted to play the game again.

He had met Mu Mian at school before. She was Teacher Shen's sister and an autistic patient. He knew that she was also a brain-defective person, and he thought she would be like him and unable to feel any emotions.

When he saw Mu Mian again, he found that he was wrong. She came to the school with Officer Fang. The interaction between them reminded him of the love movies he had seen.

It turns out that autistic people can also have love.

He really wanted to see what Mu Mian's love would be like.

When he saw that Officer Fang was willing to exchange his own death for Mu Mian's life, he envied Mu Mian a little. Why could she have love?

At this time, he heard Zhang Ming say to him: "Zhou Junwei, I can also die for you without hesitation."

Zhou Junwei remembered that he seemed to have love, but he couldn't feel it. If he could like something, he thought, he would fall in love with Zhang Ming.

But he couldn't fall in love with anyone.

So, Zhang Ming was just a tool he used to kill people.

On the day he was imprisoned, Zhang Ming saw Zhou Junwei for the last time.

If possible, Zhang Ming wanted to go back to the day before Zhou Junwei was taken away. He would take Zhou Junwei away from the correctional school and go anywhere he wanted. Zhou Junwei could like anyone and anything.

At that time, Zhou Junwei would like Zhang Ming, and they would walk hand in hand on the street.
