Mutated Tao Chapter 596: Mental illness
Li Huowang sat in a wheelchair and was pushed out of the ward by his mother, Sun Xiaoqin. His hands, as thin as chicken feet, were handcuffed to the handles of the wheelchair with silver handcuffs.
When they went out, Li Huowang himself was also surprised that he was not wrapped in double restraint clothes. It seemed that they also thought that their illness was cured.
"Just come out for a walk to get some air, so there's no need for so many guards, right?" Li Huowang looked at his side, and said the four big and three rough prison guards.
"Hey, just let them follow. It's all a hard order from above. It's not easy for Xiao Liu and the others. Don't make it difficult for them."
Hearing what his mother said, Li Huowang smiled slightly, and called others by nicknames. It seems that his mother is very familiar with the people in this place.
"Son, it's raining outside today, so let's not go out to bask in the sun, let's just walk around here."
"Oh, yes."
Soon Li Huowang was pushed through, and after turning a few turns, he came to a relatively large space.
Some patients wearing the same blue and white stripes as Li Huowang were looking up at the TV hanging on the wall.
The so-called long-term illness makes a good doctor, although mental illness can't make a good doctor, but Li Huowang can roughly distinguish what diseases these patients have at a glance.
Those who talk nonsense, or those who think clearly but can't stop their mouths, these two types are most likely to be schizophrenia, and they are also the most familiar type of psychosis.
This type accounts for a large part. It seems that the family members don't care about it, and they were arrested for wandering on the street and brought to this public hospital.
The person who is taciturn, does not interact with others, and looks very introverted, it is probably depression.
Extremely energetic and always in a high mood, it should be hypomanic.
As for looking a little confused, with a demented expression and dull eyes, it should be that the nurse gave me medicine, and the effect of the medicine has not passed.
Naturally, there are also some who behave normally. As for whether they are almost cured, whether they are anorexic, pretending to be normal, or other diseases, only they know.
Seeing these people, Li Huowang felt that this place was okay, and there was no manic patient who beat and cursed for no reason.
It is also possible that this kind of person was forcibly imprisoned like the past self, and those who were released to watch TV had relatively stable symptoms.
These types are the vast majority in the mental hospital. As for other rare types, he is not a doctor after all, so he doesn't know them.
But soon, Li Huowang discovered that these people stopped watching TV, but turned their heads at the same time, staring at him with wide eyes, as if his face was much more beautiful than the programs on TV.
Looking at the people in the room staring at him, Li Huowang asked with some confusion: "Why do they all look at me like that?"
The prison guard named Xiao Liu next to him said: "Xiao Li, you are one of the best people in this Baita prison area. Don't say they know each other. Who doesn't know each other in the fifteen prison areas of the prison?" I have heard of your famous name."
"So I'm so famous?" Li Huowang said somewhat surprised.
"It's more than that, now that the heat has dropped, when you broke into the university town to save your girlfriend, it was the number one most searched every day, why don't you think why, why is the warden so convenient to you? ?”
…
Hearing this, Li Huowang finally understood his position in the hearts of these people.
Then he saw that there seemed to be an invisible circle around him, and no mental illness dared to approach within ten meters.
"Mom, just stop here. I'll watch TV for a while. I haven't watched TV for a long time." Li Huowang looked up at the noon news in front of him.
The boring picture in the past, in Li Huowang's eyes at this moment, seems so novel.
"Hello, audience friends, today is the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, the small year, the so-called 23rd, offering sacrifices to the stove official; the 24th, cleaning the house, and now all provinces and places"
"Is it Chinese New Year again?" Li Huowang suddenly felt like traveling through time and space. For a long time, he had no concept of time at all.
"Yeah, it's Chinese New Year, and you're one year older, son, what do you want to eat for Chinese New Year? Say it, and I'll make it for you."
"I heard that there is a game that is very popular recently. After you are discharged from the hospital, I will give you lucky money. You can buy it and play."
"Mom, I'm not a child anymore." Li Huowang said helplessly.
"How old are you? You are only eighteen, legally you are an adult, but you are just a brat."
Amidst Sun Xiaoqin's nagging and the news's celebratory background music, time passed slowly.
Li Huowang likes this kind of serene feeling, he likes this kind of peaceful life, and it is best that this kind of life can be maintained until the moment when he dies of old age.
Under this quiet and peaceful illusion, the various things I have experienced before seem to be a kind of dream.
"Mom, where's Dr. Yi? Why haven't I seen him recently?"
"He, I heard that he is not free to go to work, he said he is writing some paper."
"He, a neurologist, suddenly published a paper?"
"Mom doesn't know this, and mom doesn't understand this, but I heard from Sister Ma in the cafeteria that there are people from the TV station to interview him, and he should be on TV."
"Really? Congratulations to Dr. Yi."
"Yes, yes, there are not many people who are responsible for Dr. Yi. Also, I heard that he is in his thirties and has not found a wife."
"You said how **** anxious you are, if you haven't found a wife so late in the future, then I'm really anxious to death," Sun Xiaoqin said empathetically.
Hearing this, Li Huowang wanted to scratch his head. Are all middle-aged women so well-informed about gossip? Even Dr. Yi knew he was not married.
"Sister Sun, what are you talking about? In today's society, not getting married in your thirties has long been common." The prison guard on the side couldn't help but interjected.
It can be seen that Li Huowang's condition is gradually stabilizing, which makes these people a lot easier, and they can talk nonsense with Sun Xiaoqin.
"Hey, you young people just want to play. Getting married early has the advantages of getting married early. If you get married early, your parents can help you take care of it. That woman gives birth early, and confinement is not easy to fall behind. The root of the disease."
"It's not that we don't want to get married, but when we leave school, we are in our twenties, with no money in our pockets, no car and no house, who will marry us? Five days off and fifteen days off, how can I find it, and when they heard that they could only see each other for half a year, they all ran away."
"Oh, you are all iron rice bowls and you are afraid that you won't be able to find a wife, so don't those working outside have to live?"
Soon another single prison guard joined the debate, but Sun Xiaoqin came to the fore, fighting more and more courageously, and facing the two of them did not lose the slightest bit.
Looking at his strong mother coming back, the corners of Li Huowang's mouth slightly raised. He still likes to see such an energetic Sun Xiaoqin.
Just when he saw that the debate competition was about to enter the most critical moment, Li Huowang suddenly felt his scalp go numb, and turned his head to look at the corridor on the far left.
