"Mr. Xiao, you should have come into contact with the woman named Yang Jia a month ago, right?"
Seeing Xiao Xiao's silence, the man in the suit lowered his voice slightly, for fear of alarming Xiao Xiao, and whispered:
"We have investigated you before. You suffer from severe headaches, and sometimes you can't even distinguish between reality and hallucinations."
"However, according to the analysis of our doctors, it is just too much pressure, which has led to some sensory disorders on the mental level. This is originally a disease that can be easily controlled by taking medicine and psychological counseling, but for such people,
But it is precisely their favorite target. The more fragile the mind, the easier it is to be captured by the mother's body. That's when she induced you and hypnotized you."
"..."
"How can it be?"
Listening to what the man in a suit said, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but interrupt him, feeling a strong sense of confrontation in his heart.
The scene where he met Yang Jia before clearly appeared in his mind.
At that time, I was in a severe panic, surrounded by monsters.
Driven by the will of the city, they all harbor endless malice towards themselves, and even want to eat themselves.
If Yang Jia hadn't appeared, he would have been eaten, right?
It was obviously Yang Jia who helped him understand all this and understand the world, but this man in a suit wanted to tell him...
...Did Yang Jia hypnotize him?
"Mr. Xiao, I have studied your case and know how you felt at the time..."
The man in the suit saw that Xiao Xiao's silence was a little unusual, so he could only slow down his voice and try to persuade him:
"I know that the biggest characteristic of people captured by the mother body is that they see the entire city turned into monsters..."
"But please think about it..."
His voice trembled slightly, as if he was seriously nervous: "If this city is really a huge monster..."
"Why didn't you see it at first, but you saw it only after her reminder?"
"..."
"Whoosh!"
When Xiao Xiao heard this, he could no longer control himself. He suddenly turned his head and looked at the man in the suit.
"I have never tried to discuss this with Aboriginal people."
He looked calm, but more like a calm shell, and his voice already had a hint of persuasion:
"But, you said everything I encountered was fake?"
"Actually, at the beginning, I had doubts and didn't know whether the monster I encountered was real or fake."
"After all, I have the experience of not being able to tell the difference between true and false..."
"But, up to now, I have experienced too many things..."
"..."
As he spoke, Xiao Xiao calmed down, and the huge panic just now was slightly relieved.
He even found it a little funny.
Admittedly, this stranger who suddenly appeared made him a little surprised and a little confused.
But I can go to Yang Jia afterwards and ask for clarification.
As for him saying that everything he encountered was just a huge hallucination, isn't this... a joke?
From the time he left the bedroom he had lived in for four years, until now, he has seen terrifying and mutated aberrations, recognized painful substances, earned points that can make him stronger, and even has his own
The dog of pain and the old record player, even the butcher who sells meat on the street bought it, all these lifelike things, but you call it an illusion?
"you……"
But facing Xiao Xiao's calm and questioning eyes, the man in the suit also fell silent for a moment.
Then, he whispered: "Mr. Xiao, would you like to see some of the information we collected about you?"
"Um?"
Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows, but did not refuse.
The man in the suit pursed his lips and quickly contacted someone. After a while, he took a huge metal box from the hands of a person in white protective clothing behind him, opened the box, and operated it a few times.
There was a projection, falling on the wall.
Xiao Xiao looked at those projections, his expression gradually became a little scary.
"Mr. Xiao, look at what you have done..."
The man in a suit operated the instrument in the metal box and whispered: "In the No. 9 subway station, near your home, there has always been a group of homeless people gathering there. They are among the people forgotten by the city. Some people even regard them as
Dirty rat."
"Sometimes, one of them will die of illness and old age, but because of the city's indifference to them, they are not discovered for a long time. We investigated this surveillance, which shows that you were with that woman named Yang Jia,
Going to collect the body of a homeless man who died of illness... It seemed like a good thing, but from then on, you began to be deeply trapped in the mother's body."
"We also found out that there is an abandoned factory in Xiacheng District. Desperate people used to burn charcoal to commit suicide there. Over time, it started to attract more desperate people to end their lives there. But
We found out that you and another member who escaped from the organization went there to hold a funeral for the corpses that had begun to rot."
"The result of the funeral was that the warehouse was burned to the ground."
"I don't know what happened in your imagination, but..."
"That neighborhood was originally a paradise for bankrupts. It was the most normal thing for someone to die there."
"And uptown..."
"..."
While he was operating, he projected another image, and he could vaguely see the chaotic streets and coffee shops: "There was also a chaotic incident here. Someone falsely reported that a bomb had been installed, causing everyone to panic. Even here,
Amid this panic, a heartbreaking incident occurred. A woman who had been bullied had just been discharged from the hospital and approached her former bully."
"It was a clerk in the coffee shop. She killed the clerk and then shot herself..."
"This was originally a sad accident, but it seems to have had a profound impact on you..."
"besides……"
"..."
As he spoke, he played various surveillance videos and explained them one by one, but Xiao Xiao already felt a faint headache.
"enough……"
He suddenly stopped him. Even if he didn't approve of these aborigines at first, now he couldn't help but want to refute him:
"You want to explain that this is all our delusion?"
"So, what's up with the twisted and terrifying Rat Man? I even shot it..."
"What's with the suffocating doll?"
"That swamp of despair is again..."
"..."
"Mr. Xiao..."
But before Xiao Xiao could finish speaking, the man in a suit suddenly spoke, interrupted him, and whispered:
"The mother body is a symbiotic collective illusion."
"You are always under the influence of this huge hallucination, and you will show strong delusional symptoms. You will see things that do not exist, and you will quickly weave a huge set of illusions for yourself based on some details that have appeared in reality. , even a logically logical lie for you personally, and you and them share the same set of illusions, and each other deepens this lie..."
"We have studied a case at hand. There is an ordinary middle-aged man with a clear mind, calmness and rationality, but he is convinced that he is a political figure in a certain country. He only hid in a mental hospital to avoid assassination by political opponents. The caregivers around him He and the doctor were both bodyguards who secretly protected him. When the doctor was treating him, he also thought about breaking his logic, but found it difficult."
"Because he will constantly weave some reasons for himself to explain all this and form evidence for his other identity."
"And you have the same characteristics as him."
"It's just that you are symbiotic, and you have even constructed another set of survival rules for each other..."
"For example, you mentioned that a monster named Rat Man appeared in the subway station, and you shot it to death..."
"But have you ever found bullet holes or shell casings there?"
"..."
Xiao Xiao was suddenly stunned and found that this question was difficult to answer.
Of course, no traces can be found in the subway station, because they have all been swallowed up and restored by the flesh and blood of the city.
Even the evidence of the suffocation doll could not be found, because everything was burned to ashes...
"Mr. Xiao, you can carefully identify whether the things you have experienced really happened..."
The man in the suit has switched to the last set of projections. It is a hotel box. You can see familiar faces. Xiao Xiao can even see himself in it, sitting silently and vigilantly among everyone. Sometimes, he appears introverted and timid.
"We investigated your first encounter with Yang Jia..."
The man in the suit mustered up the courage and looked into Xiao Xiao's eyes: "Through some inquiries, I also learned what happened at that time. You have a classmate named Jiang Cheng. He tried to hide it at first, but later he told us
, He said that he did say some threatening words to you in the bathroom that day, because he also liked Yang Jia and hoped that you would not have wishful thinking..."
"You were very excited at the time and even punched the mirror, which made him feel scared and he never mentioned it again."
"It's a pity that there is no surveillance camera in the bathroom, otherwise we could let you see these pictures."
"..."
"Jiang Cheng..."
Xiao Xiao's body suddenly started to tremble slightly.
Doesn't it mean that after repelling the evil intentions of the city, these aborigines will lose the memory of that period?
But, Jiang Cheng actually still remembers?
But, what he remembers is the truth of another situation?
A certain sense of doubted uncertainty made him more and more panicked. Suddenly he remembered something, thinking of the weird experience he had when he saw the video on the dock in that pink office, and subconsciously
Then he mobilized his three eyes.
Yes, through these three eyes, you can see the truth.
However, before he could turn his three eyes to the projection position, the monitor on the man in the suit suddenly flashed violently.
His expression changed and he hurriedly stopped him: "Mr. Xiao, stop..."
"Are you trying to mobilize the power of the matrix?"
"That will only intensify the distortion of your perception and make you see what she wants you to see..."
