Chapter 426: The Metropolis Mystery (Part 7)

"Oh, yes, I see that in your latest paper, you discussed this issue with a chapter. However, I see that you mainly focus on philosophy and ethics..."

Luo De clasped his hands together, full of smiles, and said, "This is a bit difficult for an ordinary person like me with little learning. You also know that businessmen like us with low education still like to focus on some more practical problems..."

As he spoke, Luo De revealed a somewhat difficult expression again, looking like he wanted to ask but didn't dare to. Yin Wensi understood and said, "It doesn't matter, Mr. Luo De. I came here to answer your doubts, didn't I?"

Luo De put his hands under the table, laughed twice, and then said, "You are really approachable, much easier to talk to than many experts I have seen."

At this time, a waiter walked in. Yin Wensi turned his head to look at him. Luo De explained, "Sorry, I asked him to come over."

As he spoke, the waiter took two wine glasses and a bottle of wine from the cart behind him. Luo De explained, "Originally, I planned to share this classic cellar wine with Mr. Mayor, but who knew..."

"But it doesn't matter, Mr. Yin Wensi, can I call you that? It is also my honor to be able to drink with a scholar like you."

The beautiful-colored wine liquid was like a gem solidified in the cup. Seeing Yin Wensi's skillful action of picking up the cup, Luo De's smile deepened.

Then, he took out a box of cigars from the bag beside him, let the waiter cut them, and lit one for Yin Wensi. Yin Wensi took a puff of the cigar and exhaled thick smoke. He leaned back in the chair somewhat relaxed, while Luo De still leaned forward, chatting with Yin Wensi about some common sense questions about psychology.

As the atmosphere of the chat became hotter and hotter, the topic returned to the previous question. Luo De asked, "I said before that I have no intention of questioning your academic level, but changing a person's personality into another person's body... this sounds like Arabian Nights."

"Leaving aside those philosophy and ethics that give me a headache, I am only curious about a question that ordinary people would be curious about. How exactly is this done?"

"Mr. Luo De, I know you are very curious about this, but I also have to ask you a question." Yin Wensi looked at the burning cigarette butt of the cigar and said, "I heard that you started from scratch and built a huge Luo De business empire. May I ask how you did it?"

"This..." Luo De opened his mouth. He didn't know how to answer this question. He didn't know if he used that set of perfunctory and polite rhetoric to answer this question, would Yin Wensi also answer his question with the same attitude.

"This is the question that laymen have when looking at experts. When a person achieves extremely high achievements in some aspects, many people who don't understand this aspect like to ask a question, that is, 'How exactly did you do it?'."

"They are eager to get a specific implementable method from your mouth, but in fact, only insiders understand that this question has no standard answer at all. In the vast majority of cases, even if answered seriously, one can only answer a perfunctory answer."

"For example, through hard work, adding a little inspiration, adding a little luck, you just wanted to answer me like this, right? Mr. Luo De?"

Luo De's expression stiffened for a moment, but soon, his face was full of smiles again. He said, "Indeed, many people want to get the secret of success from me, but where is there any secret? People all over the world know how to do business, but there are very few people who can truly become big billionaires."

"Of course, I also understand that laymen look at psychology very mysteriously, always feeling that we all have mind-reading, and as long as we look at them, we can see what they are thinking. But in fact, it is not like this."

"This is also a discipline that requires learning a large amount of theoretical knowledge, and then constantly absorbing experience and lessons in practice, and obtaining achievements through systematic and scientific training."

"As for what you questioned before, whether it can be done to change a person's personality into another person's body, I can clearly say that it can indeed be done. But if you really want to hear the principle, I am afraid you have to start learning from the beginning."

The smile on Luo De's face didn't decrease. He said, "Look at me, chatting with you too fascinated, almost forgot today's business. Ma Te's matter..."

"Psychological treatment is a long-term process. I have no way to turn him into a normal person good at socializing overnight. As for how to treat, I need to do a basic check on him first."

"Mr. Luo De, not to hide it from you, I have already seen that you are eager to get results." Yin Wensi took another puff of the cigar, and as he spoke, the smoke gradually filled the air.

"Just like everything in this world, as long as you are willing to pay a sufficient price, there is always a faster way..."

Luo De understood and picked up the wine glass, touched the cup with Yin Wensi lightly, and then said, "This is the best news I have heard in these years."

After a while, the red-haired teenager Ma Te was brought back to the reception room again. He sat opposite Yin Wensi. Luo De, who was standing on the side, took the initiative to ask, "Uh... do I need to go out first?"

"No, no need."

Yin Wensi's answer exceeded Luo De's expectations. He was stunned for a moment, and then explained as if he suddenly reacted, "I thought others needed to avoid it."

"This is just a simple check, not a formal treatment, so you can wait on the side."

So, Yin Wensi sat opposite Ma Te and conducted a preliminary check on him. The process of the check was very simple, basically asking some simplest questions, such as name, height, weight, age, etc., as well as simple single-digit addition and subtraction and graphic description.

Luo De kept sitting on the side watching. Ma Te held his knees with both hands, answering Yin Wensi's questions somewhat rigidly, not asking why, and not doing any extra movements. Yin Wensi asked him, and he answered.

"A bit strange..." Yin Wensi looked at the piece of paper used for recording, and then looked up at Luo De and asked, "Are you sure the previous diagnosis was autism?"

The smile on Luo De's face decreased a bit. He seemed a bit hesitant, turned his head to look at Ma Te several times, and then said, "Yes, the previous doctors all told me this..."

Yin Wensi frowned, silent. The atmosphere in the room solidified. However, after dozens of seconds, Yin Wensi said to himself, "Probably atypical autism."

"What exactly is going on? Professor, was there a misdiagnosis by the previous doctor?"

"No, not really." Yin Wensi wrote and drew on the paper, and then said, "I don't know if the previous doctor explained to you that the autism spectrum is divided into many categories. The autism with communication barriers that people often see is generally typical autism."

"But there is also atypical autism. The symptoms of this part of patients are many, and cannot be generalized. It seems that your son's situation is a bit complicated..."

"Sorry, Professor." Luo De interrupted the words Yin Wensi was about to say. He looked at Ma Te and then said, "Is he autistic? Could it be..."

Yin Wensi looked at him a bit strangely, and then asked with a bit of doubt, "Mr. Luo De, why do you seem a bit..."

At this time, Luo De realized that he was a bit out of state. Just as he wanted to adjust his expression, Yin Wensi said in a tone of sudden realization:

"Oh, I know..."

Luo De's fingertips trembled a bit, and Ma Te's somewhat numb expression also had some subtle changes. At this time, Yin Wensi suddenly said:

"I have seen many such parents who feel that their children are not sick. They don't trust doctors, don't trust teachers, and don't even trust their own relatives."

"They feel that the diagnosis result is just nonsense. In their eyes, their children are no different from others."

Yin Wensi walked over and patted Luo De on the shoulder, saying, "I can understand this mood. No father wants his child to be sick."

"However, Mr. Luo De, avoidance is not a way. Maybe my diagnosis result is slightly different from the previous few doctors, but there is no doubt that your son, Ma Te Luo De, is somewhat different from ordinary people in spirit."

"So far, the most likely diagnosis result is still the autism spectrum. However, the specific classification still needs more detailed diagnosis to determine."

Just at this moment, Luo De's stiff expression eased a bit. He sighed, wiped the corner of his eye with his finger, and then made a sad expression, saying, "Indeed, I also hope Ma Te is the same as a normal child, even if he is a playboy like little Wei En?"

Yin Wensi saw that when hearing the name Wei En, Ma Te's numb expression had a change.

Restraining his gaze, Yin Wensi nodded to Luo De and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Luo De, everything will get better. Your son will recover normally, I promise."

Luo De asked somewhat hesitantly, "Can it really..."

"Remember what I said before? I can even do changing a person's personality into another person's body. Autism indeed needs long-term treatment, but..."

Yin Wensi revealed a smile. He looked into Luo De's eyes and said, "It is also as I said before, there will always be a faster way, isn't there?"

Yin Wensi saw a trace of sinister flash in Luo De's eyes, but soon it returned to a smile.

Just at this time, a series of noises suddenly came from outside the corridor, as if someone was running over in a hurry. Yin Wensi and Luo De turned their heads at the same time, but Ma Te seemed not to have heard it, still sitting in place numbly.

With a "bang," the door was pushed open by a waiter. Luo De frowned and said, "What's going on? What are you doing?"

"Mr. Luo De! You had better go down quickly! Officer Ben Jie Ming asks you to go down quickly!"

"What's wrong? Why are you so panicked?" Luo De was a bit dissatisfied. He frowned and scolded the waiter.

"Someone is dead!... Someone is dead again!"

Yin Wensi also frowned. Luo De took a step forward and asked, "Who died?"

"I... I don't know, but I heard it seems to be an agricultural product dealer, called... called..."

The waiter stammered there for a long time and couldn't explain clearly. Luo De waved his hand impatiently and said, "You take Ma Te back to the room, we will go down and see."

He walked forward with Yin Wensi and said, "Agricultural product dealer? It might be old Pa Ke. He is the largest agricultural product dealer on the East Coast, so this gala invited him..."

Luo De frowned deeply and said, "Damn it, Mayor White's death hasn't been investigated clearly yet, how come someone died again? Does this damn manor have any curse?"

No anti-theft

After Yin Wensi and Luo De went downstairs, they saw a corpse lying in the center of the banquet hall. Luo De walked up to talk to Ben Jie Ming. After Yin Wensi went down the stairs, he stood at the foot of the stairs, showing no intention of walking up at all.

Ben Jie Ming turned his head to look at Yin Wensi, walked over, looked into Yin Wensi's eyes, and said, "I heard that you have participated in the investigation of many famous murder cases."

"That's right, are you planning to hire me?"

Ben Jie Ming's eyebrows frowned deeply, but before he could open his mouth to answer, Yin Wensi turned around and said, "But I don't intend to accept it, I am going back to sleep."

"Wait!" Ben Jie Ming called out to Yin Wensi, who was about to walk up the stairs. He said, "Two murder cases occurred in a short period of time. This might be related to the previous serial murder cases in Metropolis. Don't you often participate in such cases?"

Yin Wensi stood on the stairs and paused for a moment, then turned around, looked at Ben Jie Ming, and said, "You misunderstood, I only participate in university defenses, not kindergarten report performances."

Ben Jie Ming kept staring at Yin Wensi. Yin Wensi turned back and walked up while holding the stair railing, leaving the last sentence:
