Chapter 26 The Fist and the Light

Shen Chunlan and the others were also bored, so they watched the pandas and sand cats playing around at their feet.

These two little beasts are the spiritual bodies of the staff of the mental adjustment department. The pandas are smaller than the common pandas, with black eyes and bone-like bones. It looks like there are traces on the face.

The sand cat was calmer than it, but its attention was all on Shen Chunlan's shoelaces.Shen Chunlan was dressed lightly today, he himself didn't see any interest in the laces on the white sneakers, but Sand Mao obviously liked them very much.

It has a pair of big ears, one behind the other, and a long hairy tail wrapped around Shen Chunlan's ankle, moving it from time to time to dust him off.Shen Chunlan liked it and wanted to touch its head, but he didn't dare to do it.

The girl who stared at him for a long time said, "It's quite docile and doesn't bite."

Shen Chunlan boldly reached out to touch it.The sand cat looked up at him, its eyes were round and big, full of innocence.

Shen Chunlan's heart melted: "Do you want to play with guinea pigs?"

As he spoke, he released his spiritual body.

The two people in the office—the owners of the two little beasts were all staring at the white mist that slowly fell to the ground.The white mist formed a ball, and a guinea pig the size of a hand appeared in front of the panda and the sand cat.

Sand cat and panda let go of Shen Chunlan immediately.

Shen Chunlan was carrying nuts with him, and at this moment he tossed one to the big-ass mouse.The guinea pig caught Hazel tremblingly, as if not afraid at all, thought for a while, and handed it to the sand cat.

The sand cat looked at it for a moment, raised its paw and patted it off.Hazel rolled aside, the guinea pig quickly picked it up, moved its butt and rubbed it in front of the panda, timidly put the hazel next to its paw.

Like the sand cat, the panda slapped the hazel away, and the fruit rolled away again.

Shen Chunlan: "..."

So stupid, so stupid.He felt a little ashamed, although both the sandcat and the panda clearly liked the big-ass rat.

"Your spiritual body?" Someone walked in from the door and asked with a smile, "Is that a guinea pig? It's so cute."

Shen Chunlan looked up, and saw a handsome young man walk in, and quickly put a few documents in his hands on the table between the two of them in the room: "You two sort out the information, Bai Xiaoyuan writes the report, and Tang makes a mistake. Where is Xie Zijing?  … ..."

He quickly arranged the work and motioned Shen Chunlan to sit down at his desk.Shen Chunlan smiled and said, "Hello, Section Chief Qin."

"Just call me Qin Ge." The young man replied with a smile, "You're welcome, what kind of tea do you drink? I got some Jin Junmei from the director, you try it?"

Shen Chunlan nodded.The young man in front of him is Qin Ge, the chief of the mental adjustment department of the crisis office, one of the five mental adjustment specialists in China, and the person who tested Rao Xinghai.

Different from the research progress of "maritime studies" abroad which started decades ago, domestic marine studies started relatively late, and the research results are not too many.

The "sea area" is the spiritual world of the sentinel guides. Everyone has a unique "sea area", which is boundless and extremely broad, and it is a symbol of their spiritual world.

As for sentries and guides with mental problems, their symptoms will be fully presented in the sea, in various distorted and unimaginable ways.

Ordinary guides can explore the sentinel's sea area, but only stop at the shallow sea area, that is, the current mood, the overall sea area, etc. are relatively basic and shallow.

But spiritual adjusters are different.This is a professional qualification that requires strict study, testing, testing and review. It not only requires the guide to have extraordinary sea area exploration ability, but also requires the guide to have strong self-regulation and self-balance ability, and can adjust in time after work. yourself, back to normal.

Qin Ge is the fifth mental adjuster in China. Shen Chunlan remembers that the young man in front of him can even go deep into the sea, and explore the original memory that even the sentinel himself can't remember.

He was the one who wrote the sea area test reports for all the children, including Rao Xinghai.

"I remember him." Qin Ge smiled, "In fact, everyone in our department remembers it. He released his spiritual body in the hotel lobby, the golden python, right? He also had a long stalemate with our sand cat lady For a while. Comrade Bai Xiaoyuan is a rare female sentinel in our department, she is very capable, but your students are not bad, and you fight very well."

Bai Xiaoyuan on the side ignored him, she was obsessed with playing the game of rolling hazelnuts with pandas, sand cats, and guinea pigs.

Shen Chunlan thought to herself, in terms of fighting, she is still a little worse than me.

Just as he was about to speak, the office door knocked lightly.The two people who had stayed here had already left, taking his guinea pig with them.

"Just play in the compound, not far away." Qin Ge said, "After all, what you want to talk about is the privacy of the students. It's enough for me and you to know. What's wrong with him? Has something happened?"

Qin Ge recalled how Rao Xinghai was forced by the team leader to apologize to others. "He doesn't look like an unreasonable student."

Shen Chunlan thought again, he was unreasonable too many times, you didn't know it.

"I suspect that Rao Xinghai has two spiritual bodies." Shen Chunlan said concisely, trying to select the important parts.He had clearly seen the appearance of the black mamba, and had seen it appear beside Rao Xinghai several times.

After Qin Ge listened carefully, he remained silent for a long time.

"Mr. Shen, I have studied 'Maritime Studies' and seen many cases... both at home and abroad, both now and in the past...but I have never heard of it, and I have never seen anyone who can have two "spiritual body"

"... Does Rao Xinghai have a split personality?" Shen Chunlan asked.

Qin Ge quickly shook his head: "Impossible, I can tell you with absolute certainty that Rao Xinghai has neither split personality nor schizophrenia. I have read his files. Although he grew up in an orphanage, his childhood was not very good. But his 'seas' are calm, whole, and even funny."

Sentinels and guides with split personalities, the sea area will show a strange fragmentation, as if different huge cities grew out of the same root.Qin Ge didn't find this in Rao Xinghai's "sea area".

"Even with a split personality, the mental body is the same, but it will show a different state and temperament." Qin Ge pondered for a moment, "I want to see Rao Xinghai again."

Shen Chunlan nodded quickly: "I think so too. That black snake is so abnormal, you can tell it when you see it. The golden python is not poisonous, but the black mamba is very poisonous, and the golden python is docile, but the little black snake It's too aggressive."

Qin Ge: "Hmm...aggressive? Why not aggressive?"

Shen Chunlan was stunned for a moment: "Is there a difference?"

Qin Ge: "There is a difference. Aggressiveness refers to the way it appears. Aggressiveness comes more from your feelings. Has anything happened to you?"

Shen Chunlan: "..."

Talking to a psychotherapist can be stressful.He avoided the question: "I'll arrange for you to meet him sometime. When are you free?"

"It may not be possible recently, I'm very busy." Qin Ge flipped through his schedule, "How about this, I'll go find you as soon as I finish my work, is that okay?"

Shen Chunlan could only agree.

Qin Ge paused, then smiled again: "However, he may not welcome me. After the incident at the hotel, he felt ashamed of us and was embarrassed to see us. I was patrolling his 'sea area' at the time, and it was very Difficult to enter, his breakwater is very strong, I kept telling him that no one blamed him, all his sexual reactions were normal. Then I found the entrance slowly."

He once went deep into the "sea area" of Rao Xinghai, where he found many over-beautified childhood memories: small and crowded playgrounds, circuses full of animals of various colors, canteens full of various snacks, it seems Empty playgrounds full of voices and laughter, long tables filled with delicious food...and so on and so forth.

"'Sea area' will change with a person's age and experience. The sea area of ​​​​general adults, even if they retain childhood memories, will not have such an amazing amount." Qin Ge said softly, "There are too many things missing in his childhood. Too much, and it could take a lifetime to heal the wound."

Desire for love and intimacy; but fear of love and resistance to intimacy.

He is like a fierce warrior, rushing forward with a long sword.When he wants to turn back, there is no ferry for him to return.

"Mr. Shen, if you treat him like an ordinary student, it won't be too troublesome." Qin Ge smiled, "But if you pay attention to him seriously, want to help him, relieve him, and comfort him, you may It's tough."

Shen Chunlan bid farewell to Qin Ge, a little frustrated and sad.

At least two things were confirmed during this trip: Rao Xinghai is not a split personality, and there is no visible problem in his "sea area", he is a normal person.

The second thing became even stranger because of this: he was a "normal" sentinel with two spiritual bodies that Qin Ge had never seen before.

"Teacher Shen!"

Shen Chunlan had already walked to the door of the Crisis Office, and turned back quickly when she heard the call behind her.

Bai Xiaoyuan, a female sentinel from the mental adjustment department, hurried over: "The section chief just typed up a few documents, take them and read them, maybe they will help you."

Shen Chunlan quickly thanked her.Because of Cao Hui's incident, he felt that the crisis office was full of ruthless people, but this time when he visited the psychiatric adjustment department, he didn't feel like it: everyone was very kind, and they were very friendly to him and his guinea pigs.

He took the materials in Bai Xiaoyuan's hand, and suddenly stretched out a hand from the slant, and put it in front of Bai Xiaoyuan.

In that hand was a small white gauze bag, exquisitely packaged, containing two beautifully colored candies.

"Good morning," said the man with the candy. "Do you like grapefruit or cucumber?"

Bai Xiaoyuan glared at him, but didn't answer: "I don't even like it."

After she finished speaking, she smiled and waved goodbye to Shen Chunlan, and ran away.Shen Chunlan looked at the man beside him, he was tall and handsome, and the sign on his chest was the logo of the Criminal Investigation Division of the Crisis Office.

Bai Xiaoyuan didn't accept his candy, and the man obviously didn't want to give the candy to Shen Chunlan, so he walked into the crisis office carefully in his pocket.

When Shen Chunlan was standing on the side of the road waiting for the bus, she always thought of those two round candies from time to time.He likes grapefruit.

...Did he really pour chicken soup with Rao Xinghai in that way?Shen Chunlan really couldn't remember it, but that was indeed the way he liked very much when he was in college: reasoning with the things he could grab at hand.

Perhaps Qin Ge was right, it was difficult to teach Rao Xinghai.Shen Chunlan couldn't help thinking, but I can't give up halfway... I gave him candy, I gave him a little hope.

He came because of me.He is here because of me.

If someone in this world came to another person like this, Shen Chunlan thought, even a calm and knowledgeable adjuster like Qin Ge would not be impressed.

When Rao Xinghai handed the Coke to Cao Hui, his nose was always sore.

He wanted to sneeze, but managed to hold it back.

Cao Hui looked at him suspiciously as he walked out of the classroom: "What is this?"

Rao Xinghai suspected that Cao Hui also had intellectual problems: "Coke. You don't like this? Then I'll change it to Pepsi."

"No, why are you giving me Coke?" Cao Hui raised his eyebrows deliberately, "The whole New Hope knows that Mr. Cao Hui is losing weight, you gave me Coke...you are murder!"

Rao Xinghai: "..."

Cao Hui saw what he was thinking: "Want to inquire about Teacher Shen?"

Rao Xinghai: "If you don't drink, I will."

Cao Hui swallowed his saliva: "Drink as you like. In fact, you don't have to use this thing to bribe me. It's only been two months since I entered school, and you still have a lot of time to get to know Mr. Shen. Whether you like it or not, we'll talk about it later."

Rao Xinghai paused for a moment, and even narrowed his eyes slightly: "He even told you this?"

"There is no secret between us." Cao Hui said with a smile, "Teacher Shen was also very popular in the past. He is very eye-catching. Among a large number of students, it is easy to be targeted by others. I understand you, completely understand."

Rao Xinghai slowly removed the tab.Pale white gas curled out of the mouth, carbon dioxide gas crackled and burst in the sweet water, and he heard the sound.

Taking a sip of Coke, the cold liquid made him regain his rhythm.

"Now you know my secret." Rao Xinghai lowered his eyebrows, trying to pretend to be pitiful, "But I haven't asked anything yet."

Cao Hui was about to speak when his cell phone rang.With sharp eyes, Rao Xinghai saw the words "Shen Chunlan" on the screen.

Cao Hui hummed a few times, "Understood, help him greet him", and hung up.He turned his head and saw Rao Xinghai following him step by step, he had no choice.

"How skinny was Teacher Shen when he was in college?" Rao Xinghai asked.

Cao Hui couldn't bear his bright eyes, he was usually not lifeless, at least he had no expression, now he wished he could ask him to find out.

"Why aren't you so active in studying?" Cao Hui sighed, "Okay, let me tell you a secret. Shen Chunlan is not afraid of anything in this world, except for one person."

Rao Xinghai: "Me."

Cao Hui: "... Who are you! He's his big brother!"

Rao Xinghai was surprised: "Big Brother? Does he have an older brother?"

Cao Hui: "Teacher Shen used to jump up and down in the dormitory. As soon as his brother arrived, he immediately turned into a little white rabbit... No, he immediately turned into a guinea pig. Have you ever seen that when we were having dinner together, he tried to stop him?" Brother scolded his mouth, desperately stuffing vegetables into the bowls and dishes in front of his brother. If you recall, it is exactly the same as his mouse."

Rao Xinghai couldn't help laughing.Seeing him laughing, Cao Hui felt that the hole he had dug for Shen Chunlan was very interesting, so he laughed with his neck up and down.

Rao Xinghai hadn't finished a can of Coke, and he had already walked back to the department from the teaching building.He didn't want to go to Shen Chunlan at first, but what Cao Hui said aroused his interest.He wanted to say a few words to Shen Chunlan, or take a look at him, and when he got the chance, he could emphasize "I look forward to you" again, which made Shen Chunlan nervous.

After all, Shen Chunlan's nervous look is so interesting.

Rao Xinghai didn't know if Shen Chunlan was there, but he walked outside Shen Chunlan's office and vaguely heard voices inside.

He knocked politely.

After a while, a childish voice "please come in" came from inside.

Rao Xinghai: "???"

Confused, he pushed the door open and entered.

Standing behind the door was a little girl who was only as tall as his thighs, with two ties, her hair naturally curly, and her eyes were black and round.She was originally smiling, but when she saw Rao Xinghai walking in, that smile gradually disappeared, and she stared blankly at him.

Rao Xinghai was also stunned.He looked at the little girl, and then at the man sitting on Shen Chunlan's office chair with a big face.

A professional man in his thirties, wearing a suit and black-rimmed glasses, was looking at Rao Xinghai.He frowned slightly, and seemed to have a bad temper.

Rao Xinghai once suspected that he was in the wrong place, so he exited the door to confirm, but this is indeed Shen Chunlan's office.When he walked in again, the little girl had already run to the side of the man, her little hands resting on the edge of the table, half of her head with curly hair was exposed from the table, her eyes were fixed on Rao Xinghai.

When Rao Xinghai saw her, she immediately shrank back.

Rao Xinghai: "..."

"Hello." The man spoke first, "Come to see Teacher Shen?"

His tone of voice was a bit like Shen Chunlan's, as if he was the teacher Shen Chunlan who smoked too much, but he was more majestic than Shen Chunlan.Rao Xinghai suddenly found something similar to Shen Chunlan on the man's face: the pair of eyes that always seemed to be unhappy, and the lowered thick eyebrows.

Rao Xinghai felt blessed instantly: "Brother."
