Yoichiro was walking on the road at night, he raised his head, as he walked forward, the dark wall of the ten-story high-end apartment was gradually approaching.He walked into the apartment, walked through the main entrance hall, took the elevator, and after reaching the tenth floor, walked towards the straight public corridor. "I'm Mao... so it's you." Mizuki opened the door when he heard the doorbell, and he didn't seem particularly surprised to see Yoichiro.Compared with the last meeting, Shuicheng looked thinner.The fluorescent light at the door shone from behind him, and his face looked like a skeleton covered in black hair and beard.

"I'm sorry to come to you so late. I wanted to talk to you about Aki." "Well, come in." Mizushiro turned to the side and let Yoichiro walk into the house. The place where the two talked was the same as the room in Shuicheng.Shuicheng let him sit on the office chair, then closed the door, and sat down on the round stool by himself. "There is no one else in the house, do you need to close the door?" In the soundproofed room, it is like a peaceful world surrounded by ice cubes. "Nothing special... just a habit." Mizushiro looked at Yoichiro with emotionless eyes, his voice was extremely flat, and his messy beard swayed as he spoke.Yoichiro looked into his eyes, thinking back to the Cotta syndrome patient; the one who thought he was a corpse, the expressionless eyes.

"Hui passed away, and Yaji left home again... It seems that it has dealt a heavy blow to you." Hearing Yoichiro's words, it took a long time for Shuicheng to respond: "Everything is my fault." When Shuicheng spoke, only his lips moved on his entire face. Yoichiro folded his hands on his chest on the office chair, staring at this long-time friend. "Shuicheng, we also talked on the phone last night... You seem to have said something very unreasonable to Yaji, what is not a horse, a mule or something..." Before Yoichiro finished speaking, Mizushiro let out a low moan of "Ahhhhhh", covering his face with his hands.

"I'm such a bad man..., I'm taking medicine again..., I'm taking too much medicine again..." "Do you still see that hallucination?" "That's right... After Aki's car accident, I didn't see hallucinations for a while. I thought I was finally cured. However, since Hui's funeral was over and Aki and I started living alone, the hallucinations reappeared It's..." Yoichiro felt sorry.When Yaji had a car accident, Shuicheng seemed very worried, and seemed to have regained his fatherly nature, but now it seems that it was only a temporary improvement.

"Can I ask a question?" Yoichiro cut to the point cautiously: "Did you take chloramphenicol tonight?" Shuicheng shook his head slowly.Yoichiro further confirmed: "So you're not under the influence of the drug now?" "Yeah, it's normal now." Shuicheng replied with a tone of inferiority. That being the case, it should be fine.Yoichiro murmured in his heart. "Shuicheng, please answer the following questions." Yoichiro's tone changed, and Mizushiro couldn't help but look up at him.Yoichiro continued: "First... please tell me what your occupation is."

Shuicheng's chapped lips parted slightly, but he didn't make a sound. The silence lasted for several seconds, as if he could hear the heartbeat of the other party. "What did you say?" "Tell me about your current occupation." Yoichiro repeated again.Suddenly, deep in Shuicheng's throat, a hoarse laughter sounded like sandpaper rubbing. "What a stupid question, I'm a researcher." "Where, what are you studying?" "At Sagami Medical University, I study psychiatry. I have been doing this job for twenty years. In the first few years, I was a graduate student like you."

"Shuicheng, calm down and listen to me." Yoichiro took a deep breath, and it took a while to let it out.During this period, he kept staring into Shuicheng's eyes. "You are not a researcher of psychiatry at all." Shuicheng's expression disappeared in an instant.Yoichiro continued: "You are a cleaner on a university campus, and you have been doing this job for several years." silence.Then, Shuicheng's lips twisted, revealing a mocking smile. "Hey, I'm Mao, wait, I..." At this moment, Shuicheng's expression suddenly froze. His eyelids gradually drooped, the exposed part of the eyeballs became narrower and narrower, and the dishonorable eyes were gradually covered.But his eyes were not completely closed, leaving two thin black slits, staring at Yoichiro.The shadow in his eyes disappeared, replaced by an aura, like a beast imagining the taste of its prey.

"You are not only a cleaner, but also..." In order to avoid causing excessive irritation to Shuicheng, Yoichiro said in a gentle tone as much as possible: "You are still my patient." In the next moment, Shuicheng quickly stood up.The round stool toppled behind him, making a sound. "I am Mao..." "Accept this fact, Watertown. The cure must begin with knowing your own disease." Shuicheng gradually approached Yoichiro. "Water City..." Yoichiro stared intently at the approaching Shuicheng, without letting up in the slightest.
