Gloria pointed to the closed office door. The office that was originally vacant was allocated to the new psychiatrist by Alston, and she whispered to Jerry opposite, "This new psychiatrist What is the background of the psychiatrist? I thought that office would become Dino's in the future."

Jerry shrugged: "I don't know, it should be quite famous. I glanced at the job clerk before. The list of university names and research topics like Martian text made me want to vomit."

Gloria: "..."

"But I'm more concerned about Casey." Jerry looked at the vacant seat of Casey, "As soon as the psychiatrist came, Casey couldn't wait to have a psychological evaluation so that he could go out to the field. It’s an opportunity to build a good relationship, and I can’t figure out the doctor’s routine, so don’t be given small shoes to wear as soon as you meet Casey.”

Shen Lie stood beside them, arms crossed, and squinted at the two gossiping partners when he heard the words: "There is no need to establish a good relationship. If Casey has no mental problems, he will definitely pass the test. Not everyone likes Xiaoxie." Affordable."

Jerry: "..."

Gloria: "..."

What did we say?

What did we say?

Isn't this normal gossip?

Why did you suddenly turn on the mode of talking in words?

Gloria raised her eyebrows suddenly: "Speaking of which, you are all Chinese, do you know each other?"

Shen Lie didn't answer directly: "There are so many people in our country, do you think I can know everyone?"

Gloria also thought it made sense.

However, Shen Lie cast his eyes on the closed door of Ning Yuan's new office, he was still a little surprised and slightly uneasy, but none of these could conceal the joy in his heart.

But there are some things that he will not answer for Ning Yuan.

People live in this world, and they should make decisions by themselves, instead of being speechless in the face of facts that have been determined by others.

Casey walked into Ning Yuan's new office, and Ning Yuan smiled a little embarrassedly: "It's a bit messy, and I haven't had time to clean it up yet."

Casey also smiled back heartily: "I was too anxious to go out to work, otherwise I should give you some time to adapt. I haven't introduced myself yet. I am Casey Barron, the first-class detective in our team. "

Ning Yuan was arranging the things on the table, and blurted out: "I know."

Casey heard this strangely: "You know?"

Ning Yuan was startled, and slapped himself several times in his heart, and tried his best to speak: "Because you may be my first job since I came here, so naturally I heard about it."

Casey nodded and didn't delve into it any further. At this time, Ning Yuan quickly asked him to sit down and changed the topic: "Officer Barron, please sit down, wait until I turn on the camera."

After Casey sat down, Ning Yuan spent a long time fiddling with the camera to figure it out. Then he sat across from Casey, took out his notebook and pen, thought about it, and asked the first question: "Officer Barron, are you facing When you were in Lisman, were you a hostage and an undercover agent?"

"Yes."

"How did you feel when you faced Lisman?" Ning Yuan's voice was very gentle, with a feeling of calming people down, but it was far less gentle than when facing Klein. After all, Klein has a psychological Trauma, and Casey didn't.

"I am ashamed that he took children and women as hostages," Casey said with a calm face, "I am also angry that he shot Shen, our prosecutor."

Ning Yuan twitched his eyebrows when he heard the familiar name, and asked, "What else?"

Casey was silent for a while, and then said: "...It's gone."

Ning Yuan paused while writing: "During your entire confrontation, did you have any physical contact with Lisman?"

"Yes," Casey said, "he hit me."

"What about that time? How did you feel the moment he hit you?"

Kathy shrugged. "It's my job. How should I feel?"

Ning Yuan frowned slightly. He found that Casey had never made eye contact with him once during the evaluation, "I guess this is not the first time you have undertaken such a task?"

"Of course," Casey said, "I used to be an Interpol. At that time, I dealt with a lot of such things, but I really didn't have many psychological tests."

Ning Yuan smiled at him, and the little dimple slipped out: "It's okay, just relax."

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned over a page and continued to ask: "I heard that you gave the only weapon in your body to a woman who was also a hostage?"

"Yes."

"why?"

Casey snorted her blond hair twice: "Does this need a reason? I'm a police officer, and she's just a civilian."

"Then what if you're not a police officer?" Ning Yuan put forward a hypothesis, "You're not a man who has to protect women, would you still do it?"

Casey didn't even have a moment of silence: "Why not?"

Ning Yuan glanced at the camera and said, "Officer Barron, one last question, when you got Lisman's gun and pointed it at him, and his life and death were in your hands, what did you think? ?”

Kathy was silent again, this time for a long time.

After a while, he said, "I didn't think about anything."

Ning Yuan reached out to turn off the camera, and Casey was very surprised: "Is this the end?"

Ning Yuan put the book and pen aside: "Officially, yes, unofficially, not yet."

Casey frowned: "Doctor, you confused me."

Ning Yuan didn't smile this time, didn't show any expression, and didn't have that kind of gentle tone: "You actually understand what I'm talking about in your heart."

Just as Casey was about to open his mouth, Ning Yuan continued: "I just have one question, do you sleep soundly every night?"

Casey immediately said: "Lisman is not worth it, I can't sleep every day—"

"You know what I mean," Ning Yuan said, "Stop deceiving yourself."

Casey didn't speak.

Silence quickly spread in this not-so-large space, and in the end it was Casey who sighed, so lightly that Ning Yuan wondered if he had heard it wrong, but the heaviness in that sigh was real. with.

"I thought I'd cheated the previous few psychological tests, so I could keep cheating like this." Casey closed her eyes and leaned back on the chair weakly.

Ning Yuan said softly: "Your psychological problems have nothing to do with your career, nor have they affected your career, so they don't need to point it out."

"Then why do you want to make it clear?" Casey's voice was a little vague.

Ning Yuan didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Casey's previous police psychological evaluation doctor was only invited by the police, not his friend. They had no obligation or responsibility to spend extra energy and resources on a police officer who had nothing to do with their career.

Ning Yuan asked himself, how could he be his friend?Casey didn't even recognize herself an hour before.

But just couldn't help it.

In the past year, I have been by Shen Lie's side in a way that no one except Shen Lie knows, by the side of these police officers, watching them come to each case, cheering when the case is won, and cheering if the case is lost He would drink away his sorrows, these lively people made him feel that he was out of place.

So before he knew it, he substituted himself as a friend of these people.

It wasn't until now that he realized that the past year was so absurd, so absurd that he couldn't even care about them as a friend.

Kathy felt like she had been waiting a long time for an answer.

"At least I'll sleep soundly at night."
