Dream Guide

"Which way?" Aoki asked.

The man chuckled, saw the cigarette on the green wooden table, and reached out to take it.

Director Liu patted the back of his hand and cursed: "Hey, you really don't regard yourself as an outsider! This is not your home!"

The man retracted his hand, with an aggrieved look on his face, squatted down in the corner, folded his arms, and said no more words.

Director Liu shook his head, sighed and said, "Teacher Aoki, don't be offended, there is something wrong with his mind!"

"There's nothing wrong with me!" the squatting man argued.

"Shut up!" Director Liu scolded, and then said to Qingmu, "His name is Liu Huaian, and he is also an old neighbor of Liuying Lane. When it comes to me, we are still from the same family! It's a pity that there was a fire more than 20 years ago. , their house was burned down, and he was the only one left in the family. Probably because of the stimulation, he became crazy from then on. He said that he was psychic all day long, and he knew the people there, and he also I don’t know which side he’s talking about.”

Director Liu did not shy away from Liu Huaian's presence, and Liu Huaian seemed to be used to hearing people talk about his family's old stories. In addition to always arguing, "There is nothing wrong with me," he squatted quietly in the corner and listened.

Aoki picked up the cigarette case on the table, shook it twice, took out half a cigarette, and signaled Liu Huaian to come and get it.

Liu Huaian hunched over and walked over in a half-crouched position. She glanced at Director Liu again and saw that she had no objection. Then she stretched out three fingers and took out the cigarette. She saw that there was still a small half of a cigarette exposed in the cigarette box. He put the cigarette in his hand to his ear, took another one, and backed away with a smile.

Aoki asked Director Liu: "Have you never been to the hospital?"

Director Liu said: "I'm going, why didn't you go? At the beginning, I wandered around the streets like I had lost my soul all day long. I took a knife and gave it to people I met, saying that I had some kind of chip in my body. , let someone help him take it out. Who do you think can bear this? Everyone forced him to be sent to the No. 7 Hospital. But the hospital needs money, right? You can’t always ask the neighbors to chip in to hospitalize him. These days, whose The money was not picked up! Later, it was found that he was fine, and the hospital said that his illness was not serious, so he was discharged."

"what about now?"

"It's much better now than before. A few years ago, the street helped him find a job as a cleaner in a supermarket. He was doing quite well at first, but he hid and secretly smoked and set someone's warehouse on fire. Fortunately, he was discovered in time. Otherwise, we’ll be in big trouble!”

When Director Liu said this, he glared at Liu Huaian fiercely. Liu Huaian, who was smoking, squatted in the corner and moved his body, not looking at Director Liu's face.

"Since then, the street has not dared to arrange a job for him. Who would dare to ask him? Now he just idles around all day and lives on the subsidies issued by the government."

"Then what do you mean...?" Qingmu didn't understand why Director Liu brought Liu Huaian to him.

This is a community mental health consultation room, not a psychiatric clinic. He only does psychological counseling and counseling here part-time. Psychological counselors are not psychiatrists and cannot prescribe medication. It stands to reason that such a place cannot treat mental patients, and Liu Huaian's mental illness, which has lasted for decades, has been difficult to recover, and treatment is of little significance.

"Oh, it's like this..." Director Liu looked a little embarrassed, "As you know, the assessment of the community is getting stricter and stricter now. Environmental protection, people's livelihood, employment, everything must be taken into consideration. We are This Liu Huaian has a big problem. His mental evaluation failed to meet the standard of disability, and he can't find a job. Alas, one rat droppings ruined the pot of porridge. The banner of our advanced community in Liuying Lane is regretted in his hands. It’s in!”

Director Liu rambled a lot, but Aoki still didn't understand what he meant. However, Liu Huaian spoke up: "She wants me to work at your place."

Aoki was stunned: "What?"

Director Liu scolded: "Shut up! I didn't let you speak!" Then he smiled at Qingmu, "Yes, and no... Actually, what I mean is... you are a psychologist, right, you give him See if you can restrain him. If you can restrain him, let him work at Huahua Bar from now on. He can do anything. Your bar has expanded, so you have to recruit workers anyway, right?"

Only then did Aoki realize that Sister Liu was beating around the bush just to get Ruhua Bar to accept Liu Huaian as a burden.

"This... I can't make the decision." Aoki spread his hands and said.

"I know Huahua, she listens to you." Director Liu said with a smile, "You have to take a look first to see if he can manage it well and whether he can be reduced. I will tell Huahua."

Just when Aoki wanted to say that this was not a question of whether he could surrender or not, Director Liu stood up: "Well, I still have something to do. There are still a lot of things waiting for me in the community. You guys can chat first..."

When she walked to Liu Huaian, she kicked him inadvertently, and three words came out from between her teeth: "Be smart!" Then she swayed her fat body like a big goose and came out for consultation. room.

Seeing Director Liu leave, Liu Huaian stood up from the corner, came over with a smile, and sat down across the table from Qingmu.

"I know you, you are from over there." He said this again.

"Oh, which way?" Aoki asked with interest.

"It's over there." Liu Huaian looked at Qingmu and suddenly became serious, "I know you guys are very secretive."

"You mean a spy?"

"Spy? Well, you could say that."

Aoki initially judged that this person was delusional. Of course, he would not waste his energy easily for such a person. He was just chatting like this for Director Liu's sake.

"So, you're a spy too?"

"Me?" He smiled mysteriously, "I am two-faced."

"Oh..." Aoki nodded, "Double-sided tape."

"No, it's not double-sided tape!" He was a little angry, "It's a double-sided agent, a spy!"

"You're angry!" Aoki said.

"I didn't." Liu Huaian denied.

"But I saw you were angry."

"Did I?" Liu Huaian became a little unconfident, "That's what angered me, you didn't respect me!"

"I didn't provoke you." Aoki said, "A spy will not be easily provoked."

Liu Huaian smoked a cigarette and fell into deep thought. After a while, he finished smoking the cigarette in his hand, and the finger holding the cigarette butt was burned. He shivered in pain and quickly stubbed out the cigarette butt in the ashtray.

"You're right, I shouldn't be offended," he said.

"Okay, what do you have to say to me? If not, I'm going to sleep." Aoki stretched and yawned.

Liu Huaian thought for a while and said tentatively: "There is a chip on my back. Can you help me take it out? Or you can help me find the remote control."

"What chip?"

"Don't you know?" Liu Huaian looked surprised, "Don't all the people over there have chips installed? Some are in the brain, some are on the neck, and some are on the back. Yours is where?"

Aoki shook his head and said, "I don't have a chip."

"Impossible." Liu Huaian said, "You don't have to hide it. I know everything about your side. I am double-sided." He gestured with his hands over and over, and emphasized, "It's not double-sided tape." Both sides.”
