Trickster Hunter

Chapter 370 Emotional deception

…

"Yes, yes, I am in a shopping mall in the new district. There is a strange thing here. It interferes with the communication signal in this area. I got rid of it, so the signal shielding is lifted. It's that simple." Sun Hang said to He picked up his cell phone and said, "I have other things to be busy with right now, so I won't be able to come over for the time being. I'll leave Yang Lian's side to you, my sister. Okay, I'll hang up now... Oh wait, I forgot." I told you to send a team to pick someone up at the entrance of the shopping mall."

"Who is he? Just a scavenger." After Sun Hang finished speaking, he hung up Yang Qi's call.

The scavenger girl looked at Sun Hang in fear - when Sun Hang was on the phone just now, he cast his eyes on her several times. Although she was deaf, she was not a fool after all. She could tell at a glance Sun Hang was discussing matters related to himself on the phone.

Sun Hang walked up to her and put his palm on her shoulder - the next second, Sun Hang's voice rang directly in her mind: "Someone will pick you up at the entrance of the shopping mall later. You can just go with them when the time comes.”

With a "pop", the pale-faced scavenger girl immediately knelt down and said tremblingly: "Please... please... don't hand me over to the people from the Investigation Bureau... don't..."

"Uh... you may have misunderstood. The person who came to pick you up is not from the Investigation Bureau, but from the Institute of Creatures."

Sun Hang didn't mention it, but when he mentioned it was a research institute, images of "slicing anatomy" and "living experiments" suddenly appeared in the scavenger girl's mind, and her whole body suddenly started to tremble even more.

"I mean, since you have provided me with useful information, I can write off the matter of you shooting me with a crossbow." Sun Hang also realized the ambiguity of the sentence just now, "As for why I want to let the research This person came to pick you up because Because their medical conditions can cure your ears, after your ears are cured, you are free to go wherever you want... Of course, if you are arrested by the police for theft or other crimes later, If you live there, it’s none of my business.”

Although Sun Hang could also heal the scavenger girl's ears by using Yi 423's ability, he did not do so.

This girl has a more serious problem than her ears.

In other words, this is not just her problem, but the problem of the entire Tianfu City.

All the eyes of the higher-ups were focused on Chimera No. 17, and few people could see the struggles of these lower-level people.

Sun Hang is not a Holy Mother, and he doesn't care much about the life and death of people who have nothing to do with him... But for those people who were "assimilated" by monsters just now, and those who were infected by contaminated water sources and transformed into monsters, Sun Hang Hang felt an extremely strong negative emotion.

Including these scavengers, all people struggling to make ends meet, and even those who have been trapped at home for a long time due to martial law and unable to go out, all of these people will become a breeding ground for negative emotions.

It is difficult to ensure that everyone can receive the psychological counseling services provided by the government based on existing policies alone.

Not to mention the consultation method, many people don’t even know that this kind of service exists. What’s more, even if his negative emotions are so strong that they want to swallow him whole, he will not feel that they are his. If you have a mental state problem, you will not receive treatment from a psychiatrist.

They will only vent their resentment on other things. They will resent the strange things, the federal government, their own fate... and even the people around them.

People like this are the individuals most prone to "emotional deception".

But for such people, the probability of receiving psychological counseling is the smallest.

This is a fatal flaw in the existing policy.

Sun Hang just saw the shadows named "Fear" and "Despair" behind the scavenger girl, but he told the girl that he asked people from the institute to pick her up to help treat her ears, and he also ensured that the treatment would be completed. After she was freed, these shadows faded significantly...

Sun Hang even had a feeling that he was only one step away from breaking through that dangerous "threshold".

If this problem is not handled well, Tianfu City may have a large number of new monsters born due to "emotional deception" in the future... and the most terrible thing is that once the secret of emotional deception is revealed, If it spreads among the people, the panic caused may very well lead to an extremely serious vicious cycle!

It doesn’t mean that knowing that negative emotions may lead to deception can help people get rid of their own negative emotions as much as possible... If humans could easily control their own emotions, the profession of psychologist would not be so popular. Criminal cases caused by emotions can also be avoided...

Sun Hang suddenly remembered a joke, saying that there is an instrument that can monitor human brain activity. A group of volunteers were invited to participate in the test of this instrument-each of them had electrodes attached to their brains, and they presided over the test. The researchers stood in their midst and asked them various questions.

When researchers say, "Please don't imagine elephants in your mind, don't think about elephants." According to the monitoring results of the instrument, the picture that comes to almost everyone's mind is of an elephant.

There is only one exception.

The man came from a country in the northern frigid zone. He had no education, could not read, could not surf the Internet, and never watched TV... He did not even know what the word "elephant" in the researchers' mouth meant.

Ignorance is fearless. Continuing to keep the secret of emotional weirdness is the best solution at the moment, but it is hard to say how long this secret can be kept.

Sun Hang took a deep breath and retracted the spreading mycelium - he had absorbed the remaining memes in the remains of this weird creature, but unfortunately, these meme fragments did not bring him new abilities, but only slightly restored his severely damaged blue bar.

This weird creature itself is not very strong. The effect of shielding communication signals is achieved with the help of the computer room of the shopping mall. Its actual combat ability is not even as good as Tai Sui... The only interesting point is probably the "linkage effect" between it and the videotape, which is a "Type A weird creature".

As long as the videotape is not played to that critical point, it is almost invincible - it is like a spectator who breaks through the fourth wall, unable to interfere with this world, and will not be affected by anything from this world.
