Monster Tea Party

Chapter 6047 The Third Choice
I've seen hallucinations...

……

“That’s not the reason he introduced the child to another person who was hallucinating.”

The woman said irritably.

If someone who saw hallucinations really did appear in that boy's life...

She is also a relative of the boy.

That boy should know better how to deal with someone who is hallucinating.

This absolutely does not include having someone who is hallucinating meet another person who is also hallucinating.

Because of her child's special circumstances, the child's mother is very sensitive about this.

It's like she would never agree to let her child play with another naughty child with a bad reputation, even if her own child is a bad student with poor grades.

Even in the eyes of others, the two children are equally matched.

It's hard to say who led the way astray.

She also felt that the child would corrupt her own child.

They might feel annoyed or even disgusted when that child gets close to their own child.

……

In the hearts of the child's parents...

The one who is wrong is never your own child.

But someone else.

Their children are always the ones who are influenced and led astray.

……

"I mean……"

The man pursed his lips.

"Perhaps we are mistaken."

That's not what the boy meant.

……

"Isn't that what Ya Ya said?"

After a brief moment of stunned silence, the woman looked at her child.

……

The child immediately became flustered and at a loss.

That... um...

She remembers...

……

"The sprout is still small."

The man spoke up for the child.

"So many days have passed since then."

"It's possible that Ya Ya misremembered."

……

Uh……

The woman seemed to be deep in thought.

What the man said...

It is certainly not impossible.

only……

The woman looked at the man with some confusion.

"you……"

"Do you want to meet someone like Ya Ya, the person that boy mentioned?"

otherwise……

Why should we look for loopholes in what children say?
If it doesn't appear...

Whatever the boy said was none of their business.

Any emotions they felt because of the child's story would not affect the boy in the slightest.

After today, besides telling the children to avoid that boy, just like they did with Chen Jing, they won't actively seek him out to say or do anything.

……

What did the child say...?

It really doesn't matter at all.

……

The man was slightly taken aback.

He didn't deny it.

"I……"

"I feel like there might be something..."

"...a different discovery."

……

"Another Chen Jing?"

The woman's tone was somewhat sharp.

……

The man shook his head.

"So far, it seems that the boy did not say anything to Ya Ya that was intentional or suggestive."

"I think even if it's just for Ya Ya..."

"We also cannot turn a blind eye to some of the strange things."

"otherwise……"

"It will be too late if something really happens later."

……

The woman fell silent.

indeed.

For children……

They certainly couldn't overlook anything suspicious.

only……

"...Won't this get you into trouble?"

The woman also worried that their overreaction might cause more unnecessary trouble.

Sometimes, playing dumb is very important.

……

The man opened his mouth.

After a long pause, he said, "...I want to try."

More than worrying about getting burned himself, he was concerned about the trouble that their negligence had sown.

Besides...

How can you say it's like playing with fire?
The hallucinations were experienced by their children.

Maybe……

"We know how to stop children from hallucinating..."

……

"...Really?" The woman clenched her fingers.

He forced himself to suppress his excitement and disbelief.

……

"maybe."

The man was only guessing.

Or rather, a beautiful wish.

"At least judging from what he told the children..."

"At most, there were two people around him who were seeing hallucinations."

What is the probability of this?
If the boy's family members are prone to hallucinations...

Therefore, their family must have a better understanding of hallucinations and more effective coping strategies than the average family.

……

The woman nodded.

"Makes sense."

They haven't taken the child to the hospital yet...

It's just that I have a grudge in my heart.

Holding onto a sliver of hope.

They didn't want to believe that their child was actually hallucinating.

They refused to believe that the child's hallucinations would continue...

They thought the child was only temporarily sick.

But it will get better soon.

but……

If they went to the hospital...

This will be recorded in the child's file forever.

What if someone they know sees them taking their child to see a psychiatrist...?

They dared not imagine what rumors might spread.

Even if they explain it then...

Many people will be skeptical.

They believed they were just putting on a show of bravado.

Cover your ears and the bell.

They outwardly agreed with them.

But in my heart I felt either pity or mockery towards them.

The child's friend's attitude is a good microcosm of how many people would react.

They don't want their children to encounter more people or situations like this.

What they want most is...

They quietly resolved the child's problem behind the scenes.

Then act as if nothing had happened.

Let the river of time erase all traces of this memory.

……

only……

They had their concerns... whether they were avoiding seeking medical help...

They were also worried that not taking their child to the hospital might be...harming the child...

Perhaps with professional help...

The child will recover faster.

they do not know.

After we found out that the child was hallucinating...

They agonize over these two choices every single day.

too difficult.

It's really hard.

……

The man's words reminded the woman.

The woman felt as if she had been enlightened.

Yes.

They still couldn't make up their minds to go to the hospital...

So ask people in your family who have similar symptoms for their experience...

Isn't this a great third option?
……

The woman nodded.

"it is good."

"Let's meet that person."

……

"Ya Ya."

The man looked at the child, "You contact that older boy..."

The children had told them before.

The boy left his phone number with the child.

If a child wants to see someone like themselves...

So I called that boy.

……

The child was a little confused.

She didn't realize what was happening...

Why did Mom and Dad go from being angry at the beginning to... not being angry anymore?
She thought...

Mom and Dad hate the older brother...

But now her dad is telling her to call her older brother...

The child doesn't understand...

"...Call your older brother?"

The child couldn't help but confirm.

really?
……

"Ah."

The woman nodded.

"Ya Ya only needs to call her big brother."

"The next words..."

"Mom will talk to the older brother."

……

what?
The child was still confused.

But Mom said...

Mom told my older brother...

She didn't need to tell her older brother.
