Chapter 79 Trust
The communication between anchor No. 54 and Xiao Gui started with her many words of care and inquiry, but she didn’t get his response until she said this: “Student Ma Chaoji, no matter what you think, you can tell me, and I will do my best to help you.”
"Then you can..." The little ghost cleared his throat and said, "I mean, you have to tell me your name first, okay?"
"Of course. Trust is the prerequisite for starting a friendship. I know your name in advance through other means, but you don't know mine yet. This is really unfair."
The little ghost said: "Yes, it's not fair."
"My surname is Liu, my name is Liu Tiantian, I am a licensed psychological counselor, I am 24 years old, and I just graduated from college. Xincheng is my hometown, and I returned to Xincheng to work after graduating from college."
Qin Chuan frowned slightly when he saw this.
He really wanted to know how the No. 54 anchor died in the end.
She first introduced herself, which is actually a taboo behavior that will never be done in the relationship between a psychological counselor and a patient. One of the most important and basic principles in the psychological counseling industry is to create psychological isolation between patients and doctors.
Anchor No. 54 chose to do this, probably as an ice-breaking behavior to develop friendship under the psychological pressure given by the special environment.
Generally speaking, a frank person who does not show any threat and clearly expresses a desire to make a friend takes the initiative to introduce himself.
There is hardly anyone who can resist responding to her expectations.
Especially since anchor No. 54 is a woman, she has a greater charm bonus on the social level.
but……
The kid said, "Okay, my name is Ma Chaoji. I'm a student majoring in cooking at Xincheng High School. My hometown is Huangxin Village. I want to work outside after graduation, but now it seems that I can't find a job."
Anchor No. 54 said: “What a shame.”
Qin Chuan didn't know much about psychology. He just skimmed through some popular light reading books on the market in order to make games. In fact, due to his career choice, he had never faced any social pressure and naturally did not have much experience.
But he also saw that anchor No. 54 was trying to guide empathy.
Throughout the entire conversation that followed, she did not make any rash comments, but waited for the kid to speak first, and then continued the conversation based on the inclination the kid showed.
Xiao Gui doesn't talk much. He is not a talkative person by nature. The total amount of words he said in the more than 20 screen recordings that Qin Chuan speed-went through throughout the afternoon was not as much as what host No. 54 said in one hour.
Despite this, he still didn't say much.
He said: "My grandma must be very disappointed if I die like this."
Anchor No. 54 said: "Yes, after all, in a situation like this where the elderly are sending their children away, the elderly may not be able to bear the blow. Perhaps if you had other brothers and sisters, the situation might be better?"
The little ghost said: "I don't have any brothers or sisters. My parents are working in other places. I only have my grandmother."
"That grandma lives alone in the village..."
Under deliberate guidance, the little ghost sighed and said, "Grandma is always bullied in the village alone."
"Ah? Are the people in this village so bad?"
"Yeah, if I can get out alive, I will definitely kill them."
Anchor No. 54 said: "This is not good. Killing people is not good."
At this time, their relationship had become more familiar. This was the first time that anchor No. 54 tried to express clear disapproval of Xiao Gui's words, but from the wording alone, it can be seen that he must have used a very tactful tone.
Qin Chuan opened the audio with some curiosity, scrolled to this sentence and listened. In fact, including the tone, it was much softer than he had imagined.
Considering that although Xiao Gui is not bloodthirsty, he does have the ability to kill, it is not surprising that the host behaved like this.
The little ghost was silent for a while, then said, "Killing people is indeed bad, but what else can I do?"
"It's okay, I understand." Anchor No. 54 said: "You are too young and don't understand society. In fact, there are many ways to solve a problem, and we can all have a good ending from different solutions."
“I’ve tried many methods before.”
"Maybe that's not the only solution? Maybe a reliable adult can provide more help. At worst, three heads are better than one. Let's think of a solution together. Maybe we can find a way to solve it."
The ghost said: "I am already dead..."
The anchor said: "It doesn't matter, I'm still alive."
The ghost said, "That's great. I envy you. A living person can do more than a dead person. I regret that I'm dead now."
Anchor No. 54 paused and said, "I think everyone will regret it after they die."
The kid said, "Maybe, but I don't regret it either."
"Ah, I don't really understand this statement... regret, but not regret?"
The kid said, "I just regret that I didn't win the fight. I'm afraid they will come and cause trouble for my grandma again."
Anchor No. 54 must have been waiting for this moment for a long time. She said, "Maybe I can help you."
The little ghost said, "Yes, you can help me go to Huangxin Village to take a look at my grandma and see how she is doing now. I don't have any attachment to the world of the living, and I don't care about my parents. I just worry about my grandma."
"I'm worried that she will be bullied by that old witch in the village."
Anchor No. 54 said: “I think we are already friends, right?”
"Yes."
"Friends should help each other. I will treat your grandma as my own."
"Well, that's not necessary." The kid said, "It will be very..."
This is going to be troublesome.
Qin Chuan thought.
Taking care of an elderly person is a heavy burden. If agreeing to help visit grandma is something that ordinary good friends would do, then saying something like this... is far beyond the scope of ordinary friends.
No one can do such a thing.
Promising such a big thing rashly would only make people think that she was untrustworthy... She was a little anxious.
“It’s okay.” Anchor No. 54 said, “I have something to ask of you, too.”
Qin Chuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief for her, everything was back to normal.
"I think I may have to stay in New Town High School for a long time. Can you help protect me and not let me die during this time? In exchange, I will take good care of grandma while I am alive."
The little devil said, "Ah, that's good, that's fair."
Qin Chuan continued to look down.
He knew this was not the end.
"I appreciate you, sweetie."
"ah……"
"But you're not Tiantian, right? You look surprised, as if I was calling a stranger's name..."
"Even your name is a fake one, how can I trust you?"
Qin Chuan's heart sank.
Things have come to this point, and it is impossible for the little ghost not to kill her.
She already knew the kid's weakness. When she got out alive, she could fulfill her promise and use care in exchange for care, but she could also... kidnap, extort, and force him to do something.
No one knows what she will choose to do.
And she had just lost the little ghost's trust.
Trust is something that cannot be seen or touched, but when it is lost, people realize how precious it is.
But how could Qin Chuan blame the host for choosing to use a pseudonym when facing a ghost whose background was unknown?
Real names have always held a magical power in mysticism.
