Chapter 255 The Copycat

After a day off on December 31, Han Xin officially ushered in 2020.

Taking advantage of New Year's Day, Han Xin took Zhao Linshan to have a meal with both parents.This is the case for an only-child family. The house is only lively for a few days a year.

After dinner, his parents went to clean up the mess, while Han Xin had time to rest for a while.

"There are only a few lively days in a year." Han Xin sighed.

"When we have more children in the future, the family will be lively." Zhao Linshan said with a smile.

"You won't think so when you give birth to a baby." Han Xin touched her head, "Not only did she suffer during the birth, but it will also be troublesome to take care of her in the future."

"I didn't let you give birth. Your parents will help you take care of the child." Zhao Linshan muttered unconvincedly.

Han Xin was about to quibble when he suddenly received a strange phone call, so he went to the balcony to answer the call.

"Teacher Han." A familiar voice came from over there, trembling a little because of nervousness.

"Chang Ankang?! No, is it...Aunt Hong?" Han Xin asked in surprise, "Where are you now? Where did the phone come from?"

"A Dong helped people write a paper in exchange for it." Aunt Hong said with some annoyance, "The situation I was worried about still happened, and I couldn't control the situation."

Han Xin frowned and said: "I have carefully considered this point, and I think the traitor should be Hu Zi. Only he can go beyond Qin's authority under Xiao An's personality state, and then give the opportunity to perform to other personalities."

"I know, but it's too late." Aunt Hong said angrily, "I want to ask you a favor, can you not come to us? We will find a place to hide and won't hurt others. Please , if Xiao An is caught again now, he will be imprisoned, and such a lonely environment will only allow him to develop more dangerous personalities."

Han Xin sighed, he didn't know what to do for a moment.

"I am not responsible for this case." Han Xin replied after a while, "So I can only promise that I will not come to you."

"That's enough, thank you." Aunt Hong sighed, "Please take care of yourself, we will try our best to survive."

After a moment of silence, Han Xin replied: "Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year and wish you a long life." Aunt Hong said and hung up the phone.

After the conversation ended, Han Xin fell into deep thought, and then he made a decision: he wanted to cure Li Yinghui's PTSD and not let the tragedy spread further.

So, he came to the detention center the next day and met Zhan Ming.

"I have a court hearing in a few days." Zhan Ming said with a smile. "My lawyer is very confident and said that he will only be sentenced to one year at most."

"Stop talking nonsense." Han Xin said coldly, "I want to ask you about the treatment of PTSD. Can Dreamweaver really cure it?"

"Of course, do you think I will lie to you?" Zhan Ming said with a sly smile, "But the premise is that you can master the skill of dream weaving. This delicate skill is not that easy. If something goes wrong..."

"If it fails, what impact will it have on the patient?" Han Xin interrupted.

Zhan Ming said enthusiastically: "I have a lot of experience in this! I have done many experiments, and there are usually two results. The first is that the dream is not realistic enough, and in the end the patient will realize that it is a dream, and there will be no effect; and Another result is that the dream is too real, causing the patient to feel that he is in a dream after waking up, thus creating a sense of separation from reality."

As he spoke, Zhan Ming smiled proudly and said: "Of course, there are also cases of success, that is, getting rid of psychological trauma and being cured instantly."

"Using your own patients to do these experiments, you scum..." Han Xin spat.

"Don't say that, this is for the advancement of medicine." Zhan Ming said with a smile, "After these experiments, now you have the opportunity to cure the veteran with PTSD, right?"

Han Xin ignored him and stood up to leave. He could still hear Zhan Ming shouting from behind: "Will you come to my trial?"

But Han Xin didn't bother to reply to him, and just contacted the mental hospital where Li Yinghui was imprisoned.

For Li Yinghui's treatment, Han Xin did not need to be present. He only needed to put on headphones for the other party and transmit his voice.

After all, he is not a professional psychotherapist, so this is better.

Han Xin told Li Yinghui at the mental hospital that he was just providing him with hypnosis assistance. "Have you put on the headphones?" Han Xin finally confirmed, "Then I want to start?"

"Yeah." Li Yinghui responded over there, "What are you doing?"

"I'm just giving you a hypnosis aid to improve your sleep quality and help your recovery." Han Xin explained, "Okay, listen carefully to what I say and transform what you hear into your mind. For the picture.”

As he spoke, Han Xin began to enter moderate hypnosis: "You are now in the military dormitory. Today you just participated in cross-country training with weights. You have to carry [-] kilograms of equipment for a ten-kilometer cross-country run. Today you got a good reward results, but now you are very tired, you are lying on the bed, unprecedented comfort spreads over your body..."

Through the scenes in the video, Han Xin knew that Li Yinghui had entered the state, so he began to weave dreams: "You fell asleep, and you dreamed that you were back in the action in 1992..."

But Han Xin did not really ask Li Yinghui to save the child in the dream as Zhan Ming said. Instead, he asked him to try his best to save the child, but he failed in the end and the child still died.

Because Han Xin knew very well that if Li Yinghui were to save the child in his brain, there would inevitably be many logical conflicts.

For example, what about the child he saved?Where are you now and what are you doing?
Once he is aware of these loopholes, he will have a strong sense of separation from reality, leading to hallucinations, and may even be unable to distinguish between reality and dreams.So Han Xin cleverly changed the way he weaves dreams, so as not to create a sense of separation and reduce his guilt.Because fundamentally speaking, what Li Yinghui regretted was that he did nothing in order for the mission to succeed.

"Huh..." Seeing Li Yinghui falling asleep on the screen, Han Xin also breathed a sigh of relief.

In this way, Li Yinghui's situation should gradually improve.

Theoretically, this is modifying the patient's memory, which may be a bit inhumane, but it is for treatment after all.

After cutting off contact, Han Xin discovered that there were several missed calls on his mobile phone, all from Huo Gang.

Han Xin knew that it should be a case in which a criminal police officer was killed before. Although the group list was listed, it would take some time to catch the person based on the QQ number.So he called and asked about the situation.

"Teacher Han, there is something wrong with a case here." Huo Gang said through gritted teeth, "This fourth case is the case in Zhouzheng City. According to our investigation, all the local prisoners arrested by the victims are not Crime time.”

"Are you sure? Has anyone committed perjury?" Han Xin asked.

Huo Gang replied firmly: "Absolutely not. Lao Xiao adjusted the surveillance and confirmed that everyone had an alibi. And according to the identification of the surveillance video, those prisoners did not appear at the scene that day."

"This..." Han Xin was stunned, and a terrible thought emerged from his mind, "Do you think there is someone imitating the crime and trying to fish in troubled waters? This kind of situation is actually very common, usually when serial murderers appear. Sometimes, some people will use copycat crimes to take revenge on one of their enemies, trying to frame the case on a serial murderer."

"What about this?" Huo Gang was stunned, "You mean, after someone learned about this serial crime, he imitated these cases and committed this case in Zhou Zheng City? But what is his purpose? Revenge ?"

"It's possible." Han Xin shook his head: "It would be simple if it was just revenge. The trouble is another situation."

It would be very dangerous if this murderer was simply following the example for the sake of killing.It is very likely that this guy is not imitating this for the first time, but has taken the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and committed many crimes before.

Han Xin then added: "I suggest you ask Officer Xiao to check whether there are any serial murderers in Zhouzheng City or surrounding cities, but the other party firmly denies one of his cases."

This sentence made Huo Gang realize the seriousness of the matter. This kind of situation is actually not uncommon. The police often judge whether it is committed by the same person based on the modus operandi of the crime.And this kind of serial murderer kills many people and will be sentenced to death in the end. Even if one of them is not committed by him, it will not change the outcome, so in the end he is often too lazy to pursue the matter.

But it would be very scary if someone took advantage of the opportunity of serial murders to fish in troubled waters.

For example, when Su Huilin committed a crime, there might be a missing girl who was not killed by her, but was ultimately blamed on her.

This doesn't matter to Su Kelly, who may not even remember her victims, but it means that an extremely dangerous murderer is still on the loose.As long as there is another serial killing incident next time, he will quietly add another victim. No one will ever find him, and anyone can become a victim.

After notifying Xiao Anguo, something suspicious was indeed discovered.

"This is a case I know about, and I sent it to you." Xiao Anguo replied on the other side of the phone, "It was a case seven years ago. I still remember it very clearly. At that time, it was a serial massacre of families that my master was responsible for. But after he was caught, the murderer firmly denied one of the murders."

"The murderer also has an alibi?" Han Xin asked tentatively.

"That's right." Xiao Anguo said with certainty, "I personally verified that he was visiting prostitutes at the time. I asked the lady on the street that the distance between his place and the crime scene was impossible in terms of time. established."

"I didn't expect..." Han Xin frowned and muttered to himself, "It would involve such a case within a case."
