In the evening, in the Feng Ping Police Station's medical room.
"How is it, team leader? Can you hear me? "Wu Xiumin pointed at Zhao Yu's ear and reminded him.
"Mm …" Zhao Yu, who had calmed down a long time ago, used both of his hands to touch the electronic devices clipped to his ears and replied, "I can hear you very clearly. What is this? A hearing aid? "
"Something like that," Wu Xiumin replied. "This is a miniature external cochlear implant that can improve a person's hearing. I don't understand. Since it was a heavy machine gun that shook your ears, it should only affect one ear. The other ear should be fine, right? "
"No," Zhao Yu replied. "I was facing the heavy machine gun's barrel. My face was almost pressed against the barrel. Both of my ears were shaken!"
In fact, Zhao Yu didn't dare say that he was hugging the barrel at the time.
"Oh, I see …" Wu Xiumin sighed helplessly and said, "Then your ears may be neurological deafness. Its recovery depends on your mental state!"
"Yes," Zhao Yu nodded. "The doctor said so too!"
"Here," Wu Xiumin said as she handed Zhao Yu a cup of hot water. "Remember, don't drink coffee in the future. Drink less soft drinks too. Eat more foods with vitamins … Mm …"
Wu Xiumin wanted to say something but stopped. It was obvious that she had something else to say.
"Sis Wu, thank you!" Zhao Yu took the cup of water and asked, "What happened to me just now? Why do I feel like I'm losing control? Is this what Miao Ying called PTSD? "
"Mm, team leader, don't think too much!" Wu Xiumin said with a smile. "After all, you experienced the war in Wakriya. It's normal for your mental state to be affected. As for the PTSD, it shouldn't be that serious … "
"Oh …" Zhao Yu saw that the water was just right, so he drank the entire cup of water in one go.
"But … there are some things that I have to remind you …" Wu Xiumin suddenly stopped smiling and said, "I suspect that your bad mood just now wasn't entirely because of the war in Wakriya, but … but …"
"Oh?" Zhao Yu had never heard of such a thing before. "What's the reason?"
"Mm …" Wu Xiumin heaved a sigh of relief. She sat down in front of Zhao Yu and said, "So, let's have a good talk?"
"Oh … okay, okay!" Zhao Yu understood that Wu Xiumin, who was a psychologist, was giving him psychological counseling!
Snowflakes were falling outside the window. Even though it was night time, one could still enjoy the scenery through the window. However, the snow was silent, as if the whole world had fallen silent.
"Do you still remember when you beat up your father-in-law in the hotpot chicken restaurant in Wenxi City?" Wu Xiumin said in a soothing tone, "At that time, we were all puzzled by your extreme behavior.
"I know that you're a crazy detective who doesn't like to stick to the rules. Sometimes, you'll do some unscrupulous or outrageous things …"
"Can I interpret the word 'unscrupulous' as' despicable '?" Zhao Yu joked.
Wu Xiumin smiled and continued, "To be honest, we didn't know each other very well at that time, but after getting to know each other, I found that, although you were arrogant and unruly, you were, in general, a criminal policeman with a bottom line!
So, from that time on, I had already thought that your behavior in the hotpot chicken restaurant was probably influenced by the island murder case!
"I don't know. Would you like to talk to me about this in detail?"
"Um … Yes …" Zhao Yu admitted frankly. "Actually, this matter has always been a joke!
I didn't think much of it at the time, but later I realized that seeing Captain Dou, who was originally the captain of the criminal police, suddenly become a murderous murderer had a certain impact on me … "
In fact, although Zhao Yu had mentioned the platycodon that had been buried in his heart for a long time, he had still left out one thing.
In addition to this reason, it was also because, after all, he had traveled through time, and before that, he had been a ruffian who had no moral principles and was even on death row!
Zhao Yu was particularly afraid that one day, he would return to his original form and become a murderer who was even more terrible than Captain Dou!
"Very well." Wu Xiumin nodded with satisfaction when she saw that Zhao Yu was being honest with her. She then continued, "If I had talked to you at that time, maybe the effect would have been better!
But, since then, although you occasionally had some emotional problems, most of them were within an acceptable range. Moreover, I found that your ability to control yourself was constantly improving, so I didn't dare to interfere too much.
But, this time is different. The Wakriya incident was also a catalyst! Coupled with the matter of your ear, as well as the current difficult case … "Wu Xiumin pointed to Zhao Yu's ear." So, you have a very serious emotional problem … "
"However, this problem seems to be accidental, but it is actually inevitable!
"Team Leader …" Wu Xiumin looked at Zhao Yu seriously and said with a solemn expression, "If I'm not wrong, the psychological problem you are facing now should be what we used to call a criminal investigation's sore!"
"What? Hemorrhoids? "Zhao Yu grinned." I don't have hemorrhoids! "
"I don't think this is a good time to joke," Wu Xiumin said sternly. "We often say that external injuries are easy to cure, but mental illnesses are difficult to cure. Even if a normal person has a mental illness, it will be a very serious matter, let alone criminal investigators like us, who often deal with crimes."
Her words woke Zhao Yu up from his dream. He quickly sat up straight and listened carefully, not daring to talk nonsense again.
Wu Xiumin then said, "Because of the frequent contact with murder cases, the frequent contact with dead people, and the lack of conscience, for criminal investigators who work on the front line for a long time, there will be more or less some kind of stimulation, which will lead to different degrees of mental problems!
These things are inevitable. What's more, a special investigation group like us, which often investigates major cases.
"Team Leader, think carefully about the lighthouse case, the Headless Female Corpses Case, the Devil Case, the White Bone Case, the Hasty Murder Case, the Hanging Coffin Case, and so on. Did these cases really not affect you at all?"
"Hmm …" Zhao Yu thought about it carefully and nodded as if he had understood something.
Wu Xiumin was right. Although he rarely had nightmares about these cases, they always flashed back in his mind from time to time.
Moreover, every time he completed a case, his emotions would inexplicably fluctuate, making it difficult for him to control himself.
Could it be that this was the cause of his depression?
Was it because of this — the "sore of criminal investigation"?
"You may still have doubts about why it would affect you, the great detective, when all of us are fine, right?" Wu Xiumin asked again.
"Hmm … Yes, yes …" Zhao Yu nodded again and asked, "Is it because I am too focused on solving cases? I always think of myself as a criminal, so … Is that why I am obsessed? "
"Yes, that is the reason! But, in addition to that, there is one more thing … "Wu Xiumin said frankly." This kind of mental trauma tends to affect people who are more capable.
Just like you, the more capable people are, the more reluctant they are to expose their timidity and weaknesses, and the less good they are at expressing their confusion!
"Can you understand if I put it this way?"
Oh …
I see!
Wu Xiumin's words hit Zhao Yu's heart directly.
He finally understood that his previous strength was only on the surface. If he wanted to become a real strong criminal investigator, he had to overcome his inner demons!
