Chapter 242
Regarding Hannibal's frankness.
Will was also very surprised.
Besides being surprised, he was also a little moved.
After all, he had known Hannibal for so long.
From Will's perspective.
He considered himself to have some understanding of Hannibal.
The impression Hannibal had always given him was not that of someone who would casually violate his professional code.
Being willing to violate the psychiatrist's privacy code to reveal information about a murderer to him at this time.
It can be said that Will was a little surprised.
He also felt a bit more grateful to Hannibal in his heart.
Will didn't say much in the way of thanks on the surface.
He was inherently introverted and reserved.
He silently noted this favor from Hannibal in his heart, and then said.
"What did he say about his friend?"
"He opened a music supply shop in Baltimore, specializing in string products."
Hannibal said after a brief recollection.
And this clue further corroborated the truth of that patient's statement!
A music supply shop!
And specializing in string products!
Everything matched up!
Suddenly.
Will nodded solemnly, indicating that he took this very seriously.
And the next day.
Before the police found Tobias.
Hannibal had already arrived at his psychiatrist's home for a routine session.
It was still that elegant and graceful middle-aged woman, who was making tea for Hannibal.
And Hannibal was talking about his discovery on his own.
"I saw the possibility of developing a friendship for the first time."
"Did you meet someone new?"
Hannibal's statement immediately attracted the woman's attention.
The expression on her face was full of surprise and astonishment.
As if hearing this sentence from Hannibal's mouth was incredible!
And in an instant.
All the viewers also understood the reason for the woman's expression!
This... is Hannibal!
This is the Chesapeake Ripper! A serial killer who has committed dozens or even more brutal murders!
Saying the words "developing a friendship" from Hannibal's mouth.
Is undoubtedly incredible!
Who... would be able to get a psychopath like Hannibal to want to develop a friendship?!
And at the first moment!
All the viewers also thought of that equally psychopathic murderer!
Tobias!
Coincidentally!
Last night.
Tobias had been a guest at Hannibal's home!
And he had indicated that he knew Hannibal's identity as a murderer.
He had also expressed his desire to become friends with Hannibal!
It's just that he was rejected by Hannibal at the time!
Could it be that...
Hannibal only rejected him on the surface at the time?
In reality, he also wanted to have a friend who was also a psychopath?!
[Hannibal... actually saw someone he could develop a friendship with??]
[This... is hard to imagine coming from Hannibal's mouth!!]
[Usually, you only see Hannibal wanting to eat someone... who would have thought that Hannibal would want to be friends with someone??]
[This can only be another psychopath, right??]
[Ah... this isn't talking about Tobias, is it!!]
[It's possible!]
[Tobias and Hannibal do have a lot in common in some places!! And both of them have had thoughts of killing each other!]
[But didn't Hannibal already reject Tobias yesterday??]
[Maybe he just rejected him on the surface??]
[Is this playing hard to get??]
[Maybe Hannibal still wants to test the other party a bit more??]
[Yes! It's really possible!]
[Is this why Hannibal told the police about Tobias?? He wanted to test if Tobias could handle the police??]
[Holy crap!! So that's it!!]
[This test is a bit too hard...]
In the live broadcast room.
The viewers were speculating.
Although they couldn't reach a final conclusion for a while.
Most of the viewers unanimously felt that this direction of speculation was not wrong!
It is very likely that Hannibal deliberately leaked Tobias's information to the police!
He wanted to test whether the other party's ability was enough to evade police pursuit and investigation!
And if the other party passed the test!
Wouldn't that mean Hannibal might have a friend who is also a psychopathic murderer??
Suddenly.
All the viewers became incredibly curious about the subsequent plot development.
"I met a man who is very much like me, with the same interests and the same worldview."
As Hannibal spoke, his expression carried a hint of reflection.
It was as if he were also marveling that he had actually encountered someone so similar to himself.
"But I have no interest in becoming friends with him. I am curious about him, and this has made me curious about friendship."
"Then whose friendship are you considering?"
The woman's face also carried a hint of curiosity.
Clearly, she also wanted to know.
Who exactly could make Hannibal have such thoughts.
And all the viewers were stunned at this moment.
Hannibal's previous sentence clearly referred to Tobias.
He has the same interests and the same worldview as him.
That is why both of them became psychopaths and murderers!
Looking at everyone else in the world as if they were ants!
But...
Hannibal had clearly stated that he did not want to become Tobias's friend!
The one who made him want to develop a friendship...
Is someone else?!
"It's strange to say, he is a colleague and a patient. Just as I am both your colleague and your patient."
Hannibal's next sentence instantly made all the viewers understand this person's identity!
Both a colleague...
And a patient...
Then this candidate... perhaps there is only one!
Will!!
Besides being a psychiatrist!
Hannibal also helps the police solve these bizarre murder cases!
Will naturally counts as his colleague!
And at the same time.
Will is also receiving psychological counseling from Hannibal!
Naturally, he also counts as Hannibal's patient!
And this conclusion naturally caused countless viewers to be astonished!
The previous speculation... I didn't expect it to be overturned so quickly!!
Hannibal had no intention of becoming friends with Tobias!
His refusal at the time and the state he was showing now.
Clearly expressed this point!
Although Tobias is similar to Hannibal in some respects.
It only aroused Hannibal's curiosity!
It made Hannibal curious about developing a friendship!
But the one who made Hannibal see the possibility of developing a friendship!
Was Will!!
...................................(acca)..
[Holy crap!! It's actually... Will?!]
[Although Tobias is very similar to Hannibal, Hannibal actually had no interest in him??]
[He was just a tool that aroused Hannibal's curiosity...]
[Then... why is it Will??]
[No wonder Hannibal has been intentionally or unintentionally helping Will and guiding Will from the beginning!]
[Or rather, even Hannibal himself didn't realize this at first!]
[.........................]
[Could it be that certain traits in Will also aroused Hannibal's concern and attention??]
[Will... is very smart??]
[But Hannibal is also very smart!]
[It's indeed hard to say, I feel like this kind of thing is very mysterious!]
