Lightning thunders, rain roars, Gotham's night is always so dark and terrifying, a flash of lightning across the sky illuminates the dark night at the Arkham Psychiatric Hospital, where two people are in the only lit room. face to face.

When Hugo woke up from the dizziness, he saw a figure in a white coat sitting opposite him, looking at him with concern.

Hugo closed his eyes again. He moved his eyeballs diligently to dissipate the hazy halo in his field of vision. He saw that the doctor sitting opposite had green hair and clown makeup on his face.

The green-haired doctor took out a medical record from the bookshelf next to him, looked up at Hugo and said, "Hugo Strange, suffering from severe delusional disorder, has been hospitalized for three months, this is yours. The second follow-up visit in May, is your condition better?"

Hugo opened his mouth and said, "Jack, why are you here?"

Hugo looked down and saw that he was wearing a mental patient's straitjacket. He twisted his body hard and said, "...stop your mischief! Jack, what are you doing? Let me go!"

The doctor called Jack on the opposite side showed a helpless expression and said, "It seems that your condition has deteriorated again. You don't imagine yourself as a psychiatrist and treat all doctors as patients, right?"

"What are you talking about?" Hugo opened his eyes wide in surprise and said, "I was originally a psychiatrist, and you are the mental patient who likes to call yourself a clown. We didn't cooperate before... Wait!"

Hugo shook his head hard, and some fragments of memory emerged from his consciousness. He said, "No, I should be in Schiller's conscious world now, how could I..."

"Are there any new symptoms?" Jack frowned and said to Hugo, "What story did you make up this time?"

"Listen, Mr. Hugo, I don't know where you heard about those high school and college experiences, or if you made them up, but no matter how detailed you make them up, you're not the world famous you imagined Master of Psychology."

"I really don't want to spend another 20 minutes repeating your life, but if that's the only way to wake you up, then I can."

"Hugo Strange, you're a truck driver working for a gang on Yin Lisabai Street, you're not an outsider, you're a Gotham native..."

"On a rainy night, you laughed and attacked the heir of the Wayne family with a dagger, Bruce Wayne, but Master Wayne is a good man, he saw that you have a mental illness, not only did he not hold you accountable, but also sent you here."

"Listen, Hugo, you have to cooperate with the treatment. My time is precious. If it wasn't for the money from the Wayne family, I wouldn't be here to treat you..."

"What?! I'm... What are you talking about??" Hugo said in disbelief: "The background you're talking about is obviously your own, Jack, stop joking, it's not funny at all, let it go I!"

"Look, you are like this, to be honest, your symptoms are quite rare, once you hear the background of other people, you will imagine it as your own, and you are the most uncooperative I have ever seen. patients.”

Jack on the opposite side sighed and pressed the button on the table. After a while, another doctor in a white coat walked in. He pushed the glasses on his face, and Jack waved to him and said, "Vivian. Dr. Keto, I really have a headache right now."

Jack stood up from the chair, pointed to Hugo and said to Victor: "I know his medication has reached the limit, but his condition has not improved at all..."

The opposite Hugo was already swaying and trying to get rid of the straitjacket. He looked at Victor and said, "Victor, are you crazy too? Consciousness space... Where is this place?"

"Where is this place?"

With Victor's voice, Hugo's room turned into a square box, gradually shrinking. The four walls supporting the box were spread out and paved, and sections of wood rose from where the original walls were. It was built into a wooden stage, and two heavy red curtains fell from both sides of the stage with a "brush".

Looking from the stage, there are rows of auditoriums below. Victor is sitting in the auditorium and asking questions. Schiller, who is in the head of the globe, replied: "This is the 'Upside Down Tower'."

"Upside down the tower? What is that?"

"You can think of it as an area in the hall of my mind, just like the theater."

"The Upside Down Tower is on the 7th, 8th and 9th floors of the hall of my mind, of course, as you've seen before, I asked the elevator manager to open a back door for Hugo, otherwise he might even be the first I can't climb up the steps."

"Then why did you send him here? What's so special about this place?"

"This kind of teleportation is random, I didn't specify it, but his luck is quite good."

"Good luck? What does this mean?"

"As I said before, there are special rules for each area in my mind hall."

"So what are the special rules for upside-down towers?"

"The upside-down tower is where I use my perspective to think. When I treat a patient, I need to stand from the patient's point of view to understand what his current mental state is like, and to judge whether his stress threshold can be tolerated. Got my next question..."

"So there is the Upside Down Tower, where all the identities you believe in will be reversed, the doctor will become the patient, and the patient will become the doctor."

"So when you treat a patient, you turn yourself into a patient here, and then think in a different position?"

"That's right, that's why I said he was lucky, the rule in the consciousness space is 'believe what is true is true', but here it has been reversed into the opposite of what is believed is true, believing that he is a psychiatrist's rain Guo became a patient here, and the patients in his memory became doctors."

"Then how did he get out of here?" Yin Wensi asked in confusion.

"There was a lunatic who had been here before when he was climbing stairs, and he made a fairly correct demonstration."

"what is that?"

"When you believe you are a doctor, you become a patient, and conversely, as long as you believe you are a patient, you become a doctor."

"Similarly, if you believe there is a staircase to the upper floor, then it doesn't, and if you believe there will never be a staircase to the upper floor, then it has."

"Actually, it's not that difficult. Maybe, it's a little difficult for ordinary people to convince themselves of the exact opposite, but it's not too difficult for people who have made achievements in psychology, which is The reason why I said he was lucky."

"The only question is, how long will it take Hugo to figure out the rules here, find the rules, and get out of here."

Victor turned his head back, and his eyes fell on the stage again. At this time, Hugo, who was wearing a restraint suit, had returned to the ward. Obviously, he was now immersed in great shock and confusion.

The first question he doubted was, of course, why is Schiller's consciousness space so fancy?

This is not just a very real problem. Every person, every item, and every detail here is completely consistent with the real world. Even for a moment, Hugo was really shaken.

Then, there is the weirdness of this space. Generally speaking, something that appears in the consciousness space represents a certain aspect of personality. For example, the pink room may represent love, or it may represent thinking about gender. , a pencil may represent a schooling career or a childhood memory.

But now Hugo is a little confused, what does a mental hospital with upside-down identities represent?

What appears here is no different from the real world, but that's what makes it strange.

But no matter what, Hugo began his career as a mental patient in a puzzled way.

After all, he is a psychiatrist. He knows what a mentally ill person will do in a mental hospital. He has tried to spit out the medicine secretly, try to get rid of the straitjacket, and even jump off the building, but he has not succeeded because he stared at He has too many doctors, except for Jack, who is wearing clown makeup, as well as Victor, Cobot, and Alberto.

In this way, day after day, the rain outside Gotham's window never stopped, and Hugo failed to escape the surveillance of these doctors. When he was thinking hard and trying to crack the secret, he suddenly discovered that this peaceful life is slipping into an unpredictable horror.

When he tried to spit out the medicine again, the clown-painted Dr. Jack asked the nurse to bring a funnel and poured a whole bottle of pills into Hugo's mouth, when he tried to loosen the restraint again When he was getting dressed, they brought huge chains and tied him up in circles.

Their treatments became more and more dangerous, from initially being force-fed medicine, to being tied with chains, to tying him to a treatment chair, and then applying electric shocks to him...

The rain outside the window of the psychiatric hospital was getting heavier and heavier, and the night in Gotham was getting darker and darker, until one night, a figure with a dagger walked into the door of his ward, lightning fell outside the window, and the bright light cleared his face, It was a clown with a crazy smile.

He approached Hugo with the dagger, Hugo screamed and wanted to retreat, but the chains bound his hands and he had nowhere to run.

The clown cut his face with a dagger, UU reading www. uukanshu.com peeled off his skin, Hugo screamed in pain, the dagger fell one by one in the shadow of the lightning on the wall, blood splashed, and the crazy laughter spread farther and farther...

Amidst laughter and rain, the curtain was slowly closed, and Victor in the audience rubbed his arm and said, "You know, this film will definitely be classified as a 21-year-old or over..."

"Things got out of hand, why?" Cobot asked.

"I also said before that the lower the number of floors, the more chaotic it is, and the higher the number of floors, the more orderly it will be. Among the 330-story thinking halls, the 7th, 8th, and 9th floors are already very low floors. So it can get out of control very quickly.”

"The longer you stay there, the more the world will get out of control. After all, this is a space of consciousness and a dream, and anything terrible will happen, just like people have nightmares."

Yin Wensi shuddered and said, "This is really a terrible nightmare. A doctor dreamed that he became a patient and was given by the original patient..."

"To be honest, he disappointed me a bit. The madman who climbed the stairs last time solved everything in less than a day. He even made the stairs appear directly in front of him, and he still had time for this floor. People leave a few blowing kisses..."

Saying that, Schiller, who was in the head of the globe, turned his head to Jack, who was dozing beside him, but Jack didn't respond at all as if he didn't notice his movements.

"If this is really a nightmare, he should have been woken up by now, what will happen next?"

"If he is awakened by fright, it means that he failed to pass the level and will return to the first floor."

"Then let's see, next. Where will the elevator take him?"
