“Finally, her childhood sweetheart, the ‘detective’, saw through it and persuaded her to turn herself in. But it was later discovered that these people didn’t exist at all. They were her split personalities. These three boys had never harmed her in any way. However, it wasn’t long before a girl from the same school came forward to testify that she was the real victim of these three boys. Lucy was there at the scene. She probably witnessed the scene and it triggered unbearable memories of her youth that led to this outcome.”
“In other words…”
“These were the plots of her fantasies. And during the unbearable torture of her youth, she kept creating those personalities, and the twin sister was just a reflection of her own misfortune. She wanted too much to escape the unbearable shadow of her youth, and to forget all the pain and the torture. But the more she tried to forget, the more suppressed she became. So, gradually, she created a second personality to carry these painful memories.”
The more Alice spoke, the more uneasy Gong Jie became. He had a feeling that Lucy’s situation was inexplicably similar to Youyou’s.
“I hypnotized Youyou back then and entered his memories. From his memories, I dug up many painful memories. Presumably, this personality of Gong Fan is a carrier that Youyou split off to carry pain and unbearable memories.”
Gong Jie muttered to himself in amazement, “The boy actually created Gong Fan’s personality himself?”
“Yes. That’s why Youyou feels so guilty towards Gong Fan. Because he created this personality himself to carry pain. So…”
The man continued where she left off, “Which is why the boy is reluctant to destroy him.”
“Yes. Youyou is really a very kind person.” Alice paused briefly, then continued, “So, I’ve been trying to find a solution.”
“Mmm?”
“I’ve had the thought of whether creating a personality society specifically to maintain order would solve the problem.”
Gong Jie was concerned at this suggestion. “You mean to create a third and a fourth personality?”
“Uh huh.”
“No Way,” he said flatly. “The human mind simply can’t support it.” Create more personalities to form a personality society?! “No, I won’t agree to it.”
Alice’s methods always frightened him. Indeed, this “personality society” was as appalling as Project Deva Eye when the boy had first proposed it.
“Do you think I’d use the boy as a guinea pig?” Alice laughed it off. “No. I’m treating the girl now. If all goes as planned, I’ll manage her personality and create a society of personalities. If this treatment plan works, perhaps, it can be considered.”
Gong Jie kept silent without agreeing or disagreeing with it. He too, wanted to take a chance.
“That girl has become your test subject?”
“Not exactly a test subject.” Alice shook her head. “Do you know why she was put in my charge?”
“Why?”
“Because … everyone’s at their wits’ end.” Alice slowly poured out some tea. “Whether it’s electric shock therapy or some other treatment, they had only served to enrage the violent personality inside her. That’s why I offered to take over this girl. I wanted her to try my treatment regimen. Surely it’s a hundred times better than those inhumane treatments!”
