"Dissociative Identity Disorder, or DID."

Because the situation was serious, Suye tried her best to explain the matter clearly, "For ordinary people, we only have one identity, but people with multiple personalities have a disintegration of their identities, and two or more independent personality states appear. We call it dissociative identity. Each personality is independent and has its own thoughts, experiences and thinking patterns, which is different from the clinical manifestations of schizophrenia."

Nian Baixiao thought of Chen Lin he had met before and Qiao Yuan last night, and asked Su Ye, "Every personality is an independent person, is that what it means?"

Suye said, "You can understand it this way, it's like people with different identities using the same body."

Fang Sheng was curious, "Then is he Lu Nanshen or Qiao Yuan, or is he Chen Lin?"

This is the most important thing.

Su Ye understood what she meant and glanced at Hang Si without any trace.

If Lu Nanshen is a victim, then why not Hang Si? Compared to Lu Nanshen, the girl in front of her must have endured greater psychological torture.

"From a clinical point of view, whoever the main personality is is generally recognized as who he is, and the others are his sub-personalities. The main personality is relatively calm and has a certain degree of self-control, but the sub-personality is relatively extreme and has intense emotions. Of course. This is just a general way of distinguishing, and there are also extremely individual ones." Suye said.

Lu Dong pondered deeply and asked her, "Individual existence? For example?"

"For example, hidden personality." Su Ye's eyebrows were solemn, "Some patients with DID have obvious main and sub-personalities, but some have hidden personalities. This hidden personality may be a sub-personality that is deeper and calmer than the main personality. , it is also possible that he himself is the main personality, but he is just sleeping."

Nian Baixiao was surprised, "What do you mean? Does it mean that the Lu Nanshen we see now may not be Lu Nanshen?"

"But we grew up watching Nan Shen, this..." Lu Dongshen frowned, "If Nan Shen is just a sub-personality, it's hard to accept."

"Don't be too nervous." Suye comforted her, "As far as I know, your Lu family doesn't have this genetic history, right?"

"Of course not." Lu Dongshen said.

Even the once crazy Lu Beishen had never been like this.

"That's related to past experiences." Su Ye said ambiguously.

There's a reason for that.

Suye knew about Lu Nanshen's kidnapping when she was young, but she couldn't guarantee whether the three children in the room knew about it, so she was lenient when talking about it.

Jiang Li glanced at Hang Si.

Hang Si understood the meaning of this glance and said, "We all know his experience."

The only difference is that she knows more details, while Nian Baixiao and Fang Sheng don't know the specific details.

Lu Dongshen glanced at Hang Si.

Just this faint glance made Hang Si feel slightly unhappy, and the uneasiness that he had finally suppressed quietly swam in his blood again.

"The experience of being kidnapped as a child was a fatal blow to Nan Shen. The cause of the disease was most likely formed at that time. Generally speaking, the purpose of splitting the secondary personality in that situation is to protect the main personality from harm. This is the body’s self-protection mechanism under extreme conditions.”

Lu Dongshen recalled, "But after Nan Shen was brought back to Lumen, nothing unusual was found about him, except..." He hesitated for a moment, "Except for the sudden weakening of his vision and the sudden increase of his hearing."

"Visual loss and hearing loss are actually the body's way of activating the protective mechanism. It is a physiological change that occurs under extreme psychological suggestion." Suye made an accurate judgment, "It's normal that you didn't notice it. First of all, you are not professionals. People with little exposure to this aspect will naturally not think about it. Secondly, even if a psychological counselor is invited to intervene at the time, the various personalities of the DID patient will be hidden. In addition, because of his young age, it was not easy to be discovered before. "

Having said this, Suye brought up an important point, "But I'm sure that Nan Shen's secondary personality must have appeared when he was a child, either during the kidnapping or after returning to Lumen."

Lu Dongshen couldn't answer this point.

Hang Si murmured subconsciously, "Si Nian..."

"What?" Jiang Li turned to look at her.

"It's Si Nian." Hang Si's breathing became rapid, "Nan Shen told me that he has been sensitive to music since he was a child. That Si Nian likes music as much as him, and they can talk... just in Nan During Shen’s kidnapping.”

Lu Dongshen was startled.

"Mr. Lu." Hang Si ignored his fear and looked at Lu Dongshen, "Do you have any photos of Nan Shen when he was a child? The ones from the year he was kidnapped."

It was impossible to carry photos of his childhood with him, so Lu Dongshen got up and made a phone call.

During the waiting process, the atmosphere in the entire study was extremely low, and there was an uneasy current flowing in the air. No one spoke during this period, and everyone was waiting until the dust settled.

Soon photos of Lu Nanshen as a child were sent over, and Lu Dongshen showed the photos to Hang Si. Hang Si only had to take one look and gasped for air.

Her lips trembled slightly when she spoke, "Yes, it's this face... He is Si Nian."

Everyone was shocked except Su Ye. It matched her judgment, so it didn't matter who the alternate personality was.

Lu Dongshen was rigorous and grasped the key point, "Have you seen it?"

"Yes." Hang Si didn't hide anything, his voice was thin, "I was also one of the kidnapped children back then."

Nian Baixiao was stunned. Others didn't expect it and were stunned.

Fang Sheng knew about Hang Si, and looked at her with extremely distressed eyes.

Hang Si told the story of his childhood, especially related to Si Nian. She said, "I didn't see Lu Nanshen's face clearly at that time, so when I saw Sinian, I thought they were two people. The important thing is that at that time, Nanshen was locked up and couldn't get out, but Sinian could freely come in and out of the tower. .”

"People with DID will indeed have different sub-personalities, such as sudden changes in accent, behavior, habits, skills, etc., so Si Nian can come and go freely, but Nan Shen cannot do this."

Hang Si asked hesitantly, "Is Si Nian the first sub-personality to be split?"

"According to your description, no." Su Ye made a judgment after hearing everything about Lu Nanshen, "Qiao Yuan should be the first personality. You also said that Qiao Yuan is very skilled. His appearance actually It is to serve the Lord’s personality.”

"But he is close to Si Nian and regards Si Nian as his younger brother." Hang Si was puzzled.

"Although the sub-personality is not an independent person in the true sense, his thinking is no different from that of an independent person. Maybe he thinks that Si Nian should be protected more." Suye analyzed.

"Wait a minute." Jiang Li said softly, "You mean, whether it's Si Nian or Qiao Yuan, they all know each other's existence?"

"Judging from the description of the little girl Hang, it is like this, but they don't think that each other is just a sub-personality. They will regard each other as independent people."

Lu Dongshen also asked, "What about Nanshen? Do you know about their existence?"

Suye hesitated a little, "We need to wait until he wakes up and observe."

"What about Chen Lin?" Hang Si asked again.

Suye looked at her, "My judgment is that Chen Lin was split relatively late, probably two years ago."

Hang Si trembled and blurted out, "The Soul Ode Case..."

"That's right." Su Ye nodded, "The kidnapping case in Nan Shen's childhood caused the DID syndrome. The sub-personalities that came out were Qiao Yuan and Si Nian. Later, the two sub-personalities fell asleep for a long period of time. Maybe during this period, It appeared, but there was no such big movement, so it was not discovered. The soul song case two years ago had a deep impact on Nan Shen, which is also the reason why the secondary personality reappeared. Chen Lin should be there for the purpose of protecting Qiao Yuan Produced, it turns out they've been inseparable since two years ago."

"But isn't Si Nian a secondary personality? Why did he disappear so early?" Fang Sheng didn't understand.

"So something big happened during that period, which caused the secondary personality to sacrifice for the main personality." Suye looked at Hang Si, "It should have been the time when he escaped."

Hang Si was agitated, and at the same time she seemed to have thought of something else, her eyes trembling slightly.

Jiang Li noticed something and looked at her and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

"You can escape that way." This is something Hang Si couldn't figure out over and over again. "It's impossible for those people to chase them all the way to Nanshen."

Suye nodded slightly, "That's the problem. Did you see him running that way with your own eyes?"

"What I saw was Si Nian. I pointed out the road clearly at that time, and he ran towards that road." Hang Si was sure.

Suye frowned slightly.

Lu Dongshen, who had been listening silently, made a bold hypothesis, "Could it be related to Qiao Yuan?"

Suye nodded, "This is also what I'm worried about."

Hang Si was short of breath, "What do you mean?"

Su Ye leaned back on the sofa and sighed, "It's not difficult to see from your description that Qiao Yuan's character is paranoid and extremely possessive. He regards Si Nian as his younger brother, his only relative, and Si Nian, Seeing Nan Shen as his best friend and partner, this relationship can originally stimulate Qiao Yuan's temperament. And his desire to 'take' Nan Shen to escape regardless of safety may have aroused Qiao Yuan's resentment towards Nan Shen, so Nan Shen The reason why Shen couldn't escape has a lot to do with Qiao Yuan's obstruction."

Hang Si took a breath, "But it was Si Nian who he killed."

"He will not think that he is the murderer, he will only hate the instigator, such as Nan Shen, and you." Suye analyzed accurately, "This is also the reason why he imprisoned you for two years. Those two years happened to be the period when the protagonist's personality was at its peak. When he is weak, it is convenient for Qiao Yuanci to act according to his personality."

"So," Lu Dongshenyi hit the nail on the head and could always grasp the key to the problem. He looked at Su Ye, his emotions firmly suppressed in his deep eyes. "What are you worried about?"

Hang Si also realized something, his whole body tensed up involuntarily, and he raised his eyes to look at Su Ye.

Su Ye's tone sounded serious, "Generally, people with DID have their own ways of getting along with each other, and most of them will maintain a balance. But there is also a situation where the sub-personality wants to replace the main personality. He exists because of his personality, so what I’m worried about is that Qiao Yuan wanted to replace Nan Shen very early on.”
