Chapter 226: This Method Is a Bit Cruel

Can't take it anymore?

Yu Dazhang ignored him and continued driving toward the hospital.

Sure enough, Ye Zhiyu fell silent afterward, though the light in his eyes grew dimmer and dimmer.

The psychology of love ultimately could not withstand reality.

"Let me tell you about this case."

Seeing him remain silent, Yu Dazhang suppressed a smile and said seriously:

"In a moment, I will take you to meet a mental patient named Li Yong."

He then described Li Yong's condition but did not mention the specifics of the case.

"I want your help to extract Li Yong's memories, to make him..."

At this point, Ye Zhiyu suddenly interrupted:

"Wait a minute!"

"What's wrong?" Yu Dazhang turned his head to look at him.

"Is there some misunderstanding between us?"

He saw Ye Zhiyu's eyes wide open, looking as if he were about to eat someone:

"I specialize in psychology, not psychiatry."

"Have you ever seen a mental patient cured through hypnosis? I find your imagination quite rich."

"In this situation, you should find a psychiatrist."

"That Li Yong can't even communicate normally, which indicates a severe mental illness; psychotherapy is useless now."

If it were a mild mental illness, psychotherapy might be useful, but it could only serve to alleviate symptoms.

Different trades are like different mountains.

Although psychology and psychiatry appear similar on the surface, they are actually two completely different fields.

"Did I say I wanted you to treat him?" Yu Dazhang asked.

"You just clearly..." Ye Zhiyu was about to refute, but suddenly stopped.

Recalling carefully, he indeed had not said anything about helping with treatment.

Yu Dazhang repeated his previous words:

"I just want your help to extract memories."

"Do severe mental patients even have memories?" It seemed Ye Zhiyu also knew something about mental illness.

He thought for a moment and continued:

"Even if there are memories, we cannot determine whether they are real or imagined."

This was indeed a problem... Yu Dazhang had not thought of this point before.

Indeed, one cannot equate mental patients with normal people.

This was probably the main reason why the people from the Provincial Department did not investigate the victim.

Believing a mental patient sounds somewhat absurd.

"You don't need to worry about that."

Yu Dazhang still did not want to give up:

"Just do as I say; I remember you said that the subconscious is the most real aspect of a person."

"I believe you can do it; I have great confidence in you regarding this."

Ye Zhiyu had indeed never disappointed him before.

For the previous unsolved cases, without Ye Zhiyu, they probably would not have been solved yet.

"Don't have too much hope in me this time," Ye Zhiyu said calmly:

"I probably won't be of much use even if I go."

"Then prepare to return to work at the courier sorting center," Yu Dazhang's tone cooled, sounding nothing like a joke:

"If you can't handle such a small matter, what use are you to me?"

"You..." This left Ye Zhiyu flushed with anger:

"Don't rush; I promise I'll do my best, okay? With your temper, you don't even let people finish speaking."

Arriving at the hospital.

Yu Dazhang took Ye Zhiyu straight to the ward.

Upon hearing that Yu Dazhang and the other person had come to treat him, Li Yong's wife immediately became excited and thanked them repeatedly.

Some things were inconvenient to say in front of family members.

So Yu Dazhang coaxed and tricked her out of the ward.

"You can begin now," Yu Dazhang looked at Ye Zhiyu:

"Rest assured, with me guarding, no one will disturb you."

He noticed that since entering the ward, Ye Zhiyu's gaze had never shifted from Li Yong.

Ye Zhiyu said nothing but nodded.

Afterwards, he took a chair and sat beside the hospital bed.

He was actually doing the same as Yu Dazhang had before, quietly listening to Li Yong's self-talk.

The only difference was that his eyes were fixed tightly on Li Yong's hand, which was wrapped layer upon layer in bandages.

About twenty minutes later, Li Yong's voice grew quieter and quieter. Gradually, his breathing became calmer and calmer.

"Let his wife come in," Ye Zhiyu suddenly said.

Soon, Yu Dazhang called the woman into the ward.

Ye Zhiyu looked at her and asked:

"How many times a day does he stop?"

"Not necessarily," Li Yong's wife replied:

"Sometimes twice, sometimes three times, but whenever he stops, it's definitely because he's hungry."

As she spoke, she placed the prepared food and water onto the small table on the hospital bed.

Yu Dazhang was also seeing Li Yong calm down for the first time.

Not only that, he actually picked up a spoon himself and brought food to his mouth.

And he was eating with great relish!

"He can feed himself?" Yu Dazhang couldn't help but ask.

Ye Zhiyu turned and gave him a roll of the eyes:

"Mental illness doesn't equal being a vegetable; why do you always like to confuse concepts?"

Having been rebuked, Yu Dazhang wasn't angry; in this regard, he indeed wasn't as good as Ye Zhiyu.

No mistakes, one chapter, one release, one content, all in one place!

After Li Yong finished eating, the woman tidied up the bowls and chopsticks, then wiped his mouth and hands.

After doing all this, she picked up the bowls and chopsticks and left the ward.

"What are you waiting for?"

Yu Dazhang saw Ye Zhiyu staring at Li Yong again, with no intention of hypnotizing him at all.

"Waiting for an opportunity."

Ye Zhiyu raised his hand and made a downward pressing gesture, signaling Yu Dazhang to speak more quietly:

"He has now completely cut off contact with the outside world; to enter his subconscious, conventional methods no longer work."

He didn't say what method to use, but Yu Dazhang felt reassured.

Based on his understanding of Ye Zhiyu, he knew that doing this must have his own plan.

And he was absolutely confident.

After about five minutes, fear, panic, and terror gradually appeared on Li Yong's face.

Yu Dazhang and Ye Zhiyu watched silently.

As time passed, Li Yong's body began to tremble slightly, and the expression on his face grew uglier and uglier.

"I am worse than a pig or a dog, despicable and shameless, having lost all conscience..."

It started again... Yu Dazhang found that Li Yong actually knew quite a few idioms.

Idioms used to curse himself, he had said at least twenty or more.

If it were me, I really wouldn't necessarily be able to come up with these words.

"Whatever I do in a moment, do not stop me," Ye Zhiyu suddenly said.

Yu Dazhang was stunned:

"What are you going to do?"

"I roughly know what he has experienced," Ye Zhiyu said, his eyes tightly fixed on Li Yong's bandaged hand.

He took a deep breath:

"Remember, do not let anyone come in to disturb me; you must go out too."

The moment the words fell, Ye Zhiyu suddenly reached out and pinched Li Yong's broken finger.

A wail of agony, "Aaaah!", rang out!

Li Yong's face immediately twisted in pain, and his whole body trembled.

Fresh blood oozed from the bandage on his palm, yet Ye Zhiyu didn't even frown, just watching him.

Yu Dazhang:!!!!!

Are you sick?!

I asked you to extract memories, not to abuse the patient.

He instinctively wanted to stop, but suddenly remembered the words Ye Zhiyu had just told him.

Biting his teeth, Yu Dazhang decided to hold back and do nothing.

And the scene that followed directly left him frozen in place.

Li Yong only screamed once, then endured it through sheer force of will.

"You said that as long as I curse myself, you would no longer hurt me."

His lips trembling, he said painfully:

"Why, why don't you keep your word!"

At this moment, Yu Dazhang even saw a glimmer of clarity in Li Yong's eyes.

It's just that this method was truly a bit cruel.

Yu Dazhang turned his gaze back to Ye Zhiyu.

He was smiling!

Damn it... Yu Dazhang's eye corner couldn't help but twitch twice.

This bastard is even crazier than I imagined!
