Chapter 3384: Miracle Doctor (Part 39)

~10 min read 1,999 words

"Henry Foster's symptoms of dissociative identity disorder should have appeared earlier than we imagined." Shiler speculated: "It might not have been after he learned about the sacrificial ritual, but started very early."

"He and his mother depended on each other. Although life was tight, his mother loved him very much. Although his mother loved him very much, she didn't have the ability to change the tight life."

"This led to a very complex contradictory psychology in him. On one hand, he loved his mother, but on the other hand, he resented his mother for not being able to give him a better life."

"This kind of mentality is actually very common. The descendants of the rich complain that their parents are busy with work, and the descendants of the poor complain that their families have no money. But these are just some ordinary complaints. To evolve into intense psychological struggle, there must be a fuse."

"For example, he might have been discriminated against and bullied because of poverty, or missed the opportunity to completely change his destiny because of family limitations. Since then, hatred has overcome reason and morality, and exists in an independent form."

"However, the love and dependence on his mother are real. Long-standing feelings cannot be shaken so quickly. On one side is deep-rooted love, on the other side is surging hatred. The collision of these two intense emotions, even an adult might not be able to bear, for a child, there is no way to resist."

"In order to solve this complex contradiction, children usually choose to separate the two thoughts. When he accepts his mother's care, it is dominated by the side that loves his mother; when he is bullied because of family poverty, it is dominated by the side that hates."

"Such a way of handling will lead to different behavioral patterns cultivated by the two sides of the personality. The side that loves acts like a good baby in front of his mother, while the side that hates secretly finds trouble for his mother."

"Over time, the split in behavior naturally brings about a split in consciousness. When the side that loves dominates the body, the side that hates hides. This leads to the memories of both sides not being shared."

"Then, both sides feel that there is an extra person in their body, wanting to fight for control of the body with themselves, and then the struggle began."

"If Henry is the side that hates, Dr. Foster is the side that loves. The struggle between them might have started very early, but neither of them realized it."

"Dr. Foster might have noticed this earlier. Because compared to the extreme emotion of hatred, love's inclusiveness is stronger, and behavioral ability should also be stronger. His personality was independent earlier."

"I have reason to suspect that it might be him who teamed up with Manny to set a trap for Henry. The so-called sacrificial ritual to kill his mother didn't exist at all. They wanted to use the magic circle to seriously injure Henry, and then expel him from the body."

"But why would Manny be willing to help him?" Pride asked, "This little girl doesn't look like she has much reason."

"Precisely because there is no reason, it is easier to use." Shiler touched his chin and said, "Manny's only goal is revenge. But there are many ways to take revenge. Where do you think he got the idea of building a hospital to torture patients?"

"You mean, Manny and Dr. Foster are in a cooperative relationship. Manny helps Dr. Foster kick Henry out and traps him in the hospital, ensuring he won't go to harass Dr. Foster again. And Dr. Foster helps Manny build a hospital, torturing the descendants of the villagers back then, taking revenge for himself."

"It is very likely." Shiler nodded and said.

Just after he finished this sentence, lines of text appeared on the paper in his hand:

"Final goal activated: Find out the truth about the plague outbreak in Magic Hub Town, make your choice."

Shiler picked up the paper and looked at it. What was written on the paper this time was finally not Latin, but English, and it was a relatively standard printed font. It was clearly released by the Battleworld system.

"The reasoning is almost done." Shiler said, "Since it was 60 years ago, it shouldn't be difficult to check. Natasha and the others should be back soon, let them run another trip then."

After speaking, he stood up, walked back to the counter, and continued to organize medical records. Pride also seemed a bit bored. He leaned against the bed and said: "I heard Loki came?"

"Where did you hear that? You haven't left the room all day."

"I heard Thor's loud voice. I guess he should be on the same team as Loki..."

The two chatted for a few words, and Henry walked over and said: "Since you have already guessed it, what are you planning to do to help me?"

Shiler didn't mock him, just asked: "Shouldn't you tell us what you want to do first?"

"I am the real Henry Foster. The life Foster should have lived should have been mine."

"Okay, even if you are right, it has been more than 60 years. Foster is already dead. Otherwise, you can just treat him as you."

"But that's not me! I was killed by him and have been trapped in this damn hospital that never sees the light of day, while he was able to enjoy it outside!"

"Are you sure he was enjoying it outside? It's not easy to be a doctor in this era..."

"Don't argue with him anymore." Pride said, "Doesn't he think he has a talent for being a doctor? Then let him try. There happens to be the best surgeon in the world here. Let him follow Strange to learn surgical techniques, won't he know what his level really is?"

"Don't make trouble for me." Shiler refused, "Surgery is not a joke. Not to mention anything else, can he reach the operating table?"

"He is a ghost, he can fly."

"He is a ghost, how can he hold a scalpel?"

"Manny is also a ghost, she can lift furniture. There is no reason Henry can't."

"You just want to wait for him to cause some trouble for me and watch me clean up in a panic, right?" Shiler rolled his eyes at him angrily.

Then he turned to look at Henry and said: "You only see the thief eating meat, not the thief being beaten. Since you think being a doctor is so simple, then I'll give you a chance."

"Go to the ward for an internship tomorrow, be quick and nimble, don't let me see you secretly making trouble. Dr. Foster could cure you the first time, I can cure you the second time. Don't look at me with that expression, it's not bad that I didn't ask you for tuition."

"But Foster..."

"Foster what Foster. You only know how to look at others. People's status is also fought for by themselves. Although you have become a ghost, who stipulates that ghosts cannot be doctors? If you think you are better than him, then make some achievements. By then, the one hung on the wall will be you."

After speaking, Shiler ignored Henry. He had to finish reading these medical records before dawn, correct the parts they wrote wrong or not standardized, and let them correct them next time.

Medical record reports are an important part, similar to game review. If done well, it can quickly improve the level of novice doctors. At the same time, detailed records can also avoid some medical disputes.

Henry seemed to have no way to deal with these two people. With Manny there, he couldn't completely control the hospital. His bit of skill wasn't enough in front of Manny, so he could only disappear silently.

After Shiler finished reading the medical records, it wasn't dawn yet. Pride returned to his psychological clinic, and Shiler shouted to the air: "Manny, are you there? We haven't finished discussing our previous business."

Finding no response, Shiler didn't give up, he continued: "Thank you for blocking Henry's attack for us before, I can see that you don't like him very much. But you are still fulfilling Dr. Foster's agreement. This shows that you are a person who keeps your word. I like to cooperate with such people."

"Still the same sentence, so many years have passed. Torture should be enough. No one helped you manage the hospital before, so it's fine if it's a mess. Now that I'm here, this hospital has broad prospects. If managed well, it can make a lot of money."

"Although you are an evil spirit, there are not many people in this world who are afraid of ghosts, and you can completely live like a normal person, usually go shopping, cook..."

Shiler muttered a lot, and then he heard the ethereal voice of the little girl ringing in his ear: "Do you know what they did to me?"

Shiler was a bit helpless, why is this ghost like a repeater? So he said again: "Yes, I know, they harmed you for their own selfish interests, but so many years have passed, dust to dust, earth to earth..."

Speaking of this, Shiler's own voice gradually weakened. A few seconds later, he stood up with a "swoosh".

It was dawn now, and Wanda just came to work. Just after saying hello to Shiler, she saw Shiler staring straight at her.

"What's wrong? Doctor?"

"How long is the lifespan of a Great Mage?"

Wanda was stunned, but still replied: "It should be several hundred years. I don't know very well, but I heard that the oldest royal offering has lived for more than 700 years..."

Shiler sat down slowly again. He only reacted now that this is a magic world, not that a few hundred years have passed and that generation of people are all dead.

Especially, those few people back then used Manny to divide up magic energy, and energy can significantly extend the lifespan of carbon-based organisms. These old guys are probably still alive!

If this is the case, the previous speculation is a bit wrong. If these Great Mages are still alive, then Manny should go to them for revenge, why bother torturing these ordinary people here?

Even if Manny is trapped, Mr. Raven and these people like Wood can contact the outside world. There is also Foster back then, they cooperated with Manny for some reasons. Why have they waited until now?

Shiler didn't intend to listen to the evil spirit before, because it probably wouldn't be anything good, and the credibility was really not high. But now it seems that Manny has been repeating this sentence for a reason, there must be something he didn't know back then.

So he said to the air again: "What did they do to you? Tell me in detail. Or just show me your memory."

As soon as Shiler finished speaking, his eyes went dark and he entered the dream directly. But this time he entered Manny's dream, which was what happened after she was hung up and tortured.

It had always been Strange recounting the process of the little girl's dream, but this time Shiler entered personally, and he saw more details than Strange.

Most of these people looked like ordinary villagers, with dense labor marks on their hands and feet, and their eyes were a bit evasive. But only one person was different. He stood straight when standing in the crowd, revealing a clean chin and a very neatly trimmed beard.

This is definitely not an ordinary villager. Shiler thought, from the temperament, he looks more like a noble. In this way, the matter of the magic energy source back then might be much more complicated than they speculated.
