Chapter 88

~3 min read 578 words

The social worker nodded.

"The atmosphere is very tense... everyone is frustrated, everyone is struggling. Can't find work, society is getting harder and harder."

Sighing, the social worker stopped discussing the situation in Gotham City and shifted the topic to Arthur.

"How are you doing yourself? Have you been keeping a diary?"

"Yes, ma'am."

"Very good, did you bring the diary?"

Listening to the social worker's inquiry, Su Chen smiled naturally, seemingly wanting to express an apology; he didn't want the other party to see his diary.

But whether in words or actions, he behaved very politely in front of others.

"Arthur, I told you to bring the diary last time! It facilitates our treatment."

"Can I see it?"

The social worker's tone intensified slightly.

And in the camera, Su Chen held the cigarette in his right hand, shaking his leg, seemingly very anxious.

Taking a deep breath, he took out a notebook from the side and handed it over.

"I use this as a diary, and it's also my joke record book."

"Interesting thoughts and observations, I remember I told you I wanted to be a stand-up comedian."

The social worker took it, flipping through the notebook while replying casually.

"No, you didn't."

Su Chen's expression sank slightly, and he said very seriously.

"I think I did."

But the social worker didn't respond, flipping to the diary section on her own, to a page full of writing.

A line that seemed to have been written repeatedly until it was bolded caught the social worker's attention.

"I only hope my death makes more cents than my life."

And this line made all the audience members' hearts sink.

【The protagonist is actually... this pessimistic now....】

【This is completely hopeless for life, right...】

【A sad society, a sad job, a sad experience.】

【If you were Arthur, you probably wouldn't last a month..】

【The protagonist is completely disappointed in his own life and the whole world.】

【His dream is actually to become a stand-up comedian...】

【Wait, can we see the other content in the diary just now?? It flipped too fast!】

【Go check the live stream replay later, just take a screenshot.】

Like the audience, the social worker's face was also slightly heavy, and she looked up and asked.

"Coming here, does having someone to talk to help you?"

"I think it feels better than being locked in a mental hospital."

But clearly, the ongoing treatment hadn't worked for Arthur, and Arthur had even written such pessimistic sentences in his diary.

The conversation between the two was just as the synopsis said: Arthur's identity as a mental patient, but it should have been more serious before, as he actually had to be locked in a hospital!

Mental patients are only forcibly locked in mental hospitals if they behave in ways that harm themselves or others!

"I hope I can ask the doctor to increase my dosage."

"Arthur, you are taking seven different medications, they must be doing something, right?"

"I just... don't want to keep feeling this sad anymore."

Su Chen looked straight at the social worker, his eyes full of sadness.

What he wanted was very simple, but it seemed it could never be realized.
