"You're right … If that's the case, then this is going to be troublesome …" Jiang Xiaowei's expression was serious.
"I know you're an expert in psychology, so can you help me analyze his situation? If he kills someone, will he be held criminally responsible? This is a type of mental illness, right? "
Huo Mien had discussed this issue with Jiang Xiaowei before, but at that time, they only analyzed it on a superficial level.
They didn't delve too deeply into it …
Now that Huo Mian had witnessed Huo Siqian's second personality erupt again and said so many correct words, Huo Mian knew she had to do something or she would be in a passive position.
What worried her the most wasn't that Huo Siqian's second personality would hurt her or Qin Chu. After all, they were both adults and had the ability to protect themselves.
What Huo Mien was most afraid of was that Huo Siqian would hurt her twin daughters …
Jiang Xiaowei was silent for a moment, and then slowly said, "According to Article 18 of our country's criminal law, if a mentally ill person can no longer recognize or control his or her own actions and causes harm to others, and if necessary, the government will step in to supervise and force him or her to take care of him or her. Simply put, he or she will be locked up in a mental hospital. If a mentally ill person commits a crime when he or she is mentally normal, he or she will be held criminally responsible. If a mentally ill person who hasn't completely lost the ability to recognize or control his or her own actions commits a crime, he or she will be held criminally responsible. However, they can be dealt with lightly or with a reduced punishment, so we can't generalize. It depends on the situation at the time."
"What you're saying is … if Huo Siqian is himself and he kills someone, he will need to be held responsible … and he will be given a lighter punishment?"
"Yes, that's what I'm saying. The premise is that he has intermittent mental illness. Split personality is a type of intermittent mental illness in our psychological definition. When he doesn't act up, he's like a good person, but when he acts up, he's not him anymore," Jiang Xiaowei explained.
Huo Mien was silent upon hearing this …
"Huo Mien, what are you worried about?" Jiang Xiaowei noticed Huo Mien's concern and asked.
"Weiwei, do you think … Huo Siqian has a dissociative identity disorder, or is he faking it so that he won't have to take legal responsibility in the future?"
"So that's what you're worried about … That's really … hard to say." Jiang Xiaowei was also confused.
"But Mian, you saw it with your own eyes. You're so smart, can't you tell the difference?"
Huo Mien shook his head. "Huo Siqian isn't stupid. I was afraid that he was just putting on an act for me to see … But when I saw Song Yishi's notes, I felt that it was real … But I also felt that something wasn't right … I couldn't tell."
"You're probably thinking too much. Maybe he's mentally ill …"
"I plan to have a chat with Jiang Hong when I have the chance."
"Jiang Hong? Huo Siqian's foster mother? "Jiang Xiaowei was surprised.
"Yeah, she raised Huo Siqian since he was a child. If he really has a dissociative identity disorder, then she should know about it." "Dissociative identity disorder is very common.
"Split personality disorder is actually very common. When I was studying abroad, I heard from my tutor that there was an auntie in the United States in her forties who had at most 20 different personalities. One of them could even speak French, but the truth is, this auntie had never been to France and couldn't speak a word of French. So … this incident made her husband feel very strange. Split personality disorder is a type of mental illness, but if you look deeper, it can be considered a supernatural event …" Jiang Xiaowei smiled.
Huo Mien was just about to speak when he received a call from Little Bean.
"Baby, what's wrong?" Huo Mien's tone was gentle.
"Mommy, come back quickly. Daddy's angry. It's scary …" Little Bean said mysteriously.
