Dragon Raja: Oh no! Lu Mingfei has been diagnosed with depression!

In the office, the doctor leaned back weakly in his chair, his feet tapping the floor listlessly, watching the ceiling above him spin before his eyes.

He felt a bit of a headache, unsure of how to write in Lu Mingfei's mental health evaluation report. Through their conversation, he had basically figured out Lu Mingfei's current situation.

The boy had clearly had a sudden epiphany because of this incident, and began to sort out his past, seeing everything from the past as a mistake.

While lamenting how cowardly and incompetent he had been in the past, he also rejected his past self.

In the eyes of doctors, these patients are actually much more difficult to deal with than those who are mentally deranged. To deal with those mentally ill patients, you only need to put restraints on them, give them medication and sedatives regularly to calm them down.

In fact, how can we define whether someone is mentally ill? You feel that they are different from you because they have created a fictional world for themselves. They think that they are a happy bee in that world, so they really learn to be like bees and go to the garden to collect nectar every day. They then put the nectar they collected into their bed, imagining that it is a beehive, and wait for the nectar in their bed to turn into honey the next day.

You mocked them for saying that nectar needs to be enzymatically converted and dehydrated to become honey, and thought they were doing useless work and were mentally ill.

But they remained immersed in their own world, believing that as bees they should be happy, and that the world's troubles had nothing to do with them. Even if tomorrow was the end of the world, they would just be bees.

Doctors are experts in psychology and mental health. Sometimes they are invited to nearby mental hospitals to help patients with rehabilitation. If you ask them directly if they feel better or if they still feel like a bee, they won't answer you.

Because bees cannot understand human speech.

At times like this, you should imagine yourself as a bee, flapping your little wings and flying back to the hive with him. He will feel happy to share his honey with you because he trusts you, since he considers you his companion. He will answer whatever you ask because he trusts you.

The patient's understanding was limited, so the logic of that world was very fragile. He didn't know that bees communicate through dance, pheromones, antennae, and sounds. He simply believed that since humans communicate through language, bees must also have their own language.

And he is now a bee, so he speaks "bee language".

The so-called treatment is actually about constantly adding realistic logic to their world. When the logic of that world becomes infinitely close to reality, the patient will realize that perhaps he is a person, not a real bee, because bees are not as big as him.

At this point, the doctor would happily high-five others to celebrate, because the patient's condition had improved. Today he realized that he was a human being and not a bee, and perhaps tomorrow he would find that he should get married and have children.

But this approach didn't work on Lu Mingfei. Unlike other patients who created their own world, Lu Mingfei had a very clear understanding of the world he actually lived in.

He and the doctor live in the same world, and the doctor no longer needs to pretend to be a bee to easily strike up a conversation with Lu Mingfei.

But what good will it do to strike up a conversation?

The doctor was absolutely certain that Lu Mingfei did indeed have very serious psychological problems.

The problem with Lu Mingfei is not that he lacks a few logical principles compared to normal people, but that he has added new logical standards to himself.

He may have been a law-abiding good kid in the past, but now he only follows the rules he has set for himself. If anyone stands in his way of practicing his rules, Lu Mingfei will not hesitate to trample on everything or anyone that is in his way.

Just like those troublesome parents who come looking for trouble, if they really intended to send Lu Mingfei to prison, they probably wouldn't even need to wait for him to be released. That very night, Lu Mingfei would escape from prison, carrying a gasoline can, and go door to door looking for trouble.

The most troublesome part is this: the doctor couldn't figure out what logic and principles Lu Mingfei had added to himself, but it wasn't hard to sense the murderous intent of the person who added them from the conversation.

Damn it! Can't this kid cooperate a little? I took such a huge risk trying to get you a psychiatric evaluation that's in your favor! I knew the dean had a grudge against me for a long time, that's why he assigned me such a difficult task! I'm going to take your tires off in a bit!

The doctor stopped turning the chair, cursing inwardly, but he quickly lost heart. Lu Mingfei didn't actually need his kindness; he had been deluding himself into thinking he was saving an innocent child.

He thought for a moment, then turned on his computer, found Lu Mingfei's medical records, and started typing.

The knocking sound startled the doctor, who turned to look at the door.

She was a tall, bright, and beautiful girl with a slim waist and long legs. She wore a white tank top, a blue striped short shirt, and tight-fitting jeans. What was most eye-catching was her long, dark red hair.

In short, she's a girl who's incredibly beautiful and has an amazing figure.

Wow, the girl leaned against the door and knocked on it again.

"Hello, hello, please come in!"

The doctor was a little embarrassed, thinking to himself that he was really getting more and more like a child. When he was young, what kind of beautiful girls hadn't flirted with him? Now that he was older, he was stunned by such a girl.

The young woman didn't stand on ceremony; she came in, pulled up a chair, and sat down opposite the doctor.

"Hello, Chen Motong, you can call me Nuonuo."

The girl's self-introduction was brief and to the point. She pulled a box of chewing gum from her pocket, poured two pieces into her hand, and said, "Want two? I just had some barbecue at a street food stall, and a tourist from Shandong told me that you have to eat barbecue with garlic. I saw him eating it with great relish, so I tried a few pieces myself, and then I realized that not everyone can accept that taste."

The doctor was stunned, looking at the chewing gum in front of him and thinking that this scene seemed a bit familiar. And girl, aren't you a little too outgoing? With your ability to chat with anyone, it's a waste of your talent not to be a psychologist!

"Thank you, no need."

The doctor politely declined Nuonuo's offer. He was unsure what the girl was up to. She chewed her gum and began looking around his office, her earlier overconfidence turning into action:

"I wonder what brings you here, Ms. Chen? I'm the head of the psychology department at this hospital. If you'd like to learn more about psychology, we have a dedicated account online..."

"Does Lu Mingfei live here?"

Nono interrupted the doctor's explanation; she hadn't come here to learn about psychology. She looked up at the doctor.

Lu Mingfei?

"Does Ms. Chen have any relatives or friends hospitalized in this hospital?"

The doctor's heart tightened, but he asked calmly. He was worried that this amazing girl was also there to cause trouble, just like the group of troublesome parents who had been kicked out earlier. He dared not let anyone provoke Lu Mingfei again.

"I have no relatives hospitalized. I am an orphan. My friends are all very strong. The viruses that could make them sick are probably still frozen in the epidemic prevention bureau."

Nono shook her head, took out her student ID from her pocket, placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of the doctor:

"I am a student at a university in Chicago, USA. I came back this time to recruit new students... Lu Mingfei's name is on our list of new students. The professor in charge of admissions was very anxious when he heard that Lu Mingfei was hospitalized, but he was not familiar with the visiting procedure, so he asked me to come and find out about the situation."

The doctor looked down at the student ID card. It was dark green, with a silhouette of a half-withered, half-grown tree printed in the blank space in the middle, and the name of the school at the top—Kassel College.

Below is Nono's photo, name, and grade.

"Kassel College... I don't think I've ever heard of it."

"The school is a private university located in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. We admit students based on their qualifications, not their grades, so it's not very well-known internationally... but there's no denying it's a great school, and every new student falls in love with the atmosphere within a few days."

Nono nodded. "You can search the school's name online. My name and photo are also on the official website."

"Then there's no need. I believe Miss Chen isn't the kind of person who would come here to scam an unpopular psychologist for no reason."

As the doctor spoke, he quietly opened the browser on his computer, typed "Kassel College" into the search box, and the page redirected to an official website with a cover image of a boy and a girl playing on windsurfing at sea.

"That's the college's annual windsurfing competition, and Kassel College has beaten the University of Chicago for three consecutive years."

Nono peeked at the cover on the screen. "By the way, Kassel College and the University of Chicago are affiliated schools."

After a quick glance at the numerous accolades on the official website, the doctor finally believed that there really was such a university in the world that specialized in the study of ancient reptiles, and that there were beautiful students like Nono at this university.

No wonder he was able to recruit students with the professor before he even graduated. If a girl like that had sat across from him and asked if he wanted to study ancient reptiles with her, he would have agreed without hesitation. Only a fool would study psychology!

"What do you mean by assessing a student's aptitude? As far as I know, Lu Mingfei's grades in high school weren't ideal, and he wasn't particularly outstanding in sports either. I'm not sure if he has any other outstanding qualities... But if you really discover any special strengths in him, you can tell me about them."

Although he was mostly convinced, the doctor was still somewhat wary. He wasn't really trying to belittle Lu Mingfei, but this seemingly too-good-to-be-true story still made him a little worried.

Logically speaking, this is the patient's private matter, and he has no right to make decisions for the patient. He should just call Lu Mingfei over and talk to Nuonuo himself.

However, Lu Mingfei's current mental state is not optimistic, and he needs to understand the situation clearly before he can feel at ease.

Actually, I don't know either.

Nono shrugged.

The doctor was dumbfounded, thinking to himself, "You don't know, yet you speak so eloquently. So you're not actually a proper school, are you?"

"However, the professor liked him very much, saying that Lu Mingfei's overall qualities met our school's standards and that he had great potential."

Nono added, "The professor admires him a lot. I heard that he lives a rather frugal life and is even willing to allocate a scholarship from his own name so that he can finish his four years of university."
