4389 The Other Side 358

“Even though I don’t know what’s happened to you, and you’re saying things that I don’t understand,” Gong Jie paused, then knelt again and gently held the boy’s tiny face in his hands, rubbing them, “but Uncle will always be here for you, like Mummy, no matter what happens to you. You’ll always be my nephew, eh?’

The boy clenched his jaw. The man’s words were too much for him, and he forced back a sob.

Gong Jie knew he’d probably been holding back his tears for a long time. That the boy was now crying, probably meant that he was baring his heart to him.

His heart ached as he drew Youyou into his arms. “Just cry if that’s what you want,” he said helplessly. “Why are you holding back? You’ll fall sick if you keep all your feelings pent up inside.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the boy finally lost control and burst into tears!

“Sob sob sob…”

………

“He’s finally talking?” Alice looked at Gong Jie as he entered the lab and raised her voice in question.

Gong Jie had just escorted Youyou back to his room. The boy said he was sleepy and wanted to lie down in bed for a while. All that crying had obviously made the boy’s eyes painful and tired. Gong Jie had shut the door and promptly left him alone.

“He told me a little. It’s all quite incredible, hearing from him.”

“Oh?” Alice was curious. “Tell me.”

The man told Alice everything that had happened in the boy’s dream. Alice listened and was silent for a long time. She, too, found it incredible.

“I finally understand what the boy meant when he said he killed himself.”

“Eh?”

“Actually, Youyou feels guilty. Among the personalities, the mysterious young man was probably the most violent personality that he had developed, and it hadn’t materialized till now. The girl named Liang Yishan was the weakest personality. The most violent personality destroyed the weakest one. Although that meant killing his vulnerable side, Youyou obviously felt too much guilt about the girl. He must have felt that he had driven her to her death.”

“Witnessing a personality’s death is a shocking thing.” Alice narrated calmly, “But the fact that personalities destroy each other is no accident. There have been examples before. Someone with multiple personalities hypnotized to enter that world, having personalities destroy each other, and all the good personalities joining forces to obliterate the most evil one.”

Gong Jie listened, then asked, “And finally?”

“In the end, it was discovered that the evil personality was the true primary personality.” Alice smirked, then said, “In the end, the prisoner got a life sentence.”

“So, what do you think of Youyou’s current situation? Is it a good prognosis?”

Alice shook her head, her expression serious. “Not that great, in my opinion.”

The man tensed. “Oh? How so?”

“First of all, traveling back and forth between that world and the real world so frequently has already sapped much of his mental strength. Moreover, having to constantly experience things that are so unbearable in that world also puts a considerable amount of mental pressure on him. Therefore, for the time being, I suggest taking it slow and following a conservative treatment to avoid a nervous breakdown.”

“So…” Gong Jie started again. “What did Romanka say?”

“He doesn’t know these things about Youyou yet. I didn’t ask.”
