Chapter 86 Chaotic Perception
After Ainsley came out of the bedroom, she found that Manuel had already left. There were breakfasts
for two on the dining table.
After Ainsley washed up, she finished her breakfast and applied burn cream to herself. Serina was still
asleep.
Just as Ainsley was thinking about Serina’s condition, she received an unfamiliar call.
“Hello? Hello?” Ainsley asked doubtfully.
A chuckle came from the other side of the line, followed by Mollie’s voice. “You can’t recognize my
voice so quickly? After yesterday’s Quiz Show, I didn’t have time to ask about your condition. How is
your leg now?”
“Thanks, Mollie. It doesn’t hurt too much now, but it’s still red and swollen. I just finished applying the
burn cream. Are you going back
soon?”
Ainsley remembered that Mollie only stayed here for seven days, and today was exactly the seventh
day.
“Yes, tonight’s flight. I have a meeting over there in the early morning.”
“So fast?” Ainsley was a little surprised.
Mollie smiled and said, “There’s no other way. There are many other things to do after I return to
America. I have met many excellent psychologists in Seattle. They provide ideas that are worth a try.”
“Mollie!” Ainsley checked the time. “Are you free now?”
Mollie was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, “I am currently at Harborview Medical Center. I will
be free after the meeting here
is over. What’s wrong?”
“Serina… She is not well now. I want to talk to you.”
Ainsley felt that Serina’s current condition was a little tricky.
“Okay, how about this? The meeting will end at around three o’clock. There will be an hour free later.”
“Thank you.”
After hanging up the phone, Ainsley noticed that Serina had woken up. Serina was standing behind
her, staring at her blankly.
“Serina, you’re awake?” Ainsley was not sure how much Serina had heard from the conversation just
now.
But what surprised her was that Serina just walked to her side and sat obediently next to her. Serina
started to eat and did not answer
her.
“Serina?” Ainsley called out worriedly.
“Ainsley, have they all left?” Serina looked around in horror.
Ainsley was stunned and replied, “They have all left.”
“Ainsley, let’s hold on for a little longer. Manuel will come and save us. Don’t let them hurt you.” Serina
stared at Ainsley’s injured leg with bloodshot eyes.
Only now did Ainsley feel that something was really wrong.
Ainsley looked at Serina carefully. “Serina, who are they? Right now, there is no one around us. There
are only the two of us. Tell me
quietly. No one will hear us.”
But Serina just shook her head. “No, I can’t say it! I can’t say it!”
Her voice grew louder and louder. It seemed that she would gradually lose her mind. Ainsley quickly
consoled her, “It’s fine. Let’s not talk about it. Serina, just have your breakfast. I won’t be hurt.”
Serina finally calmed down and continued to eat the sandwich in her hand. However, she was still
fearfully staring around, as if a few
monsters would pounce on her at any time.
What made Ainsley very glad was that at least now, Serina had always been very obedient and was not
as crazy as yesterday.
It was almost three in the afternoon. Ainsley took Serina to Harborview Medical Center. Mollie had just
finished the meeting, so the three of them casually found a coffee shop near the Medical Center.
Mollie’s assistant waited outside the private room. In the private room, a waiter brought three cups of
coffee.
Serina nervously pinched the corner of Ainsley’s clothes and kept her head down, looking at the coffee
on the table.
Mollie looked at Serina curiously. She knew that Serena was sick. She had never seen Serina acting
like this. After all, when Manuel asked her to treat Serina, Serina had always been in a stable state.
Mollie hadn’t met such a condition.
Now, Serina no longer had the domineering and lively manner she had when they met yesterday. It had
only been a day, but there had been such a big change.
“Have you thought about what stimulated her?” Mollie said in a very low voice.
Ainsley looked at Serina worriedly. “Yesterday, when she saw my scalded leg at my house, she
became like this. Yesterday, she was more agitated than now. She was afraid of everything she saw. In
the end, it took me a lot of effort to let her sleep.”
“I think I know. Serina should have had some trauma in the past. Now, all the reactions are trauma
stress disorder. Maybe the psychological factors are deeper. Serina was stimulated before, so now she
is stuck in the environment after being simulated again, and it is difficult to come out.” Mollie thought for
a moment and said.
But this was not the question that Ainsley was puzzled about. “If she is stuck in the environment at that
time, it makes sense that she is very afraid of everything unfamiliar to her. Even when facing her
brother, she is a little afraid. But she shows a kind of unconditional trust and dependence on me, and I
have not known her for long.”
What Ainsley wanted to express was that Serina should not trust and rely on her so much.
Mollie frowned slightly and said thoughtfully, “I think you have been too immersed in what kind of
trauma Serina suffered at that time, but in fact, for everyone who has a psychological illness, the
symptoms are different. Their perception of time and space is also
confused.”
Ainsley was suddenly enlightened, “I know what you mean.”
These few days, Ainsley had been tangled up in this problem, but she had forgotten that for people with
psychological problems, the time they were in was different from the time they stayed in their minds,
and their perception would also be chaotic.
Serina only subconsciously trusted and relied on Ainsley. In the state when her mind operated in
chaos, she might force herself to mix people showing up at different times together, and now Ainsley,
who she relied on, was also pulled to that time.
“But I think that with her serious condition, maybe the treatment time will be longer. My advice is to take
herbal tea and psychological intervention at the same time, which also includes occasional channeling
stimulation. Try to make her understand that she is safe
and bring her out.”
“I will.”
Mollie glanced at the back of her hand. “I saw that you were limping just now. I’ll send you back later.”
Ainsley nodded. She looked worriedly at Serina, who was focusing on her coffee cup, constantly
adding sugar with a spoon in her
hand.
“Serina, it will be too sweet for you to put so much sugar.”
However, Serina did not listen to Ainsley. She continued to stubbornly hold the sugar spoon by spoon.
Her hands began to tremble. The sugar cubes were sprinkled everywhere by her.
“Serina?” Ainsley was nervous.
Ainsley did not tell Manuel that she brought Serina out this time, nor did she take her pocket watch.
Mollie was also a little nervous. She tried to lower her voice as much as possible and said to Serina,
“Serina, it is safe now Nothing
will happen…”
As Mollie’s voice became more and more gentle, Serina’s hand gradually stabilized. She threw the
spoon to the side fiercely. “Ainsley! There are bad people! It is not safe. Someone wants to kill us!”
