The game's heroine has come true? The aloof school beauty is in tears.

When Lu Yuan heard this, his first question wasn't why she hadn't told him.

His first question was: "Then why is Chen Mo allowed to sit under the ginkgo tree?"

Who is Chen Mo?

"The girl under the ginkgo tree."

"Isn't her name You Lian?"

In the eyes of the elderly in the mental hospital, this information is probably undeniably true.

After all, we've been together for so long.

So the illness is fake too.

Is she lying?

Lu Yuan didn't dwell on the matter and stubbornly continued to ask:

"So why was she allowed to sit under the ginkgo tree?"

"She probably wasn't allowed to either," the rose-flower woman said calmly. "But who would bear to hurt Youlian?"

"What's wrong with her?"

"Don't you think she's beautiful? Who would have the heart to hurt her?"

Mentioning You Lian changes the expression on the Rose Woman's face.

It doesn't seem like she's reminiscing about a fellow patient; it's more like she's reminiscing about a goddess from her dreams.

The blissful expression on his face didn't seem faked.

"If only I could kiss Youlian's feet..."

"Stop, stop, stop! Isn't your lover that flower?"

"If it's You Lian... I can cheat on her."

"From now on, I'll only talk about half of what I say when we chat."

Lu Yuan finally understood.

In a conversation, this woman can only be normal for half the time; she will definitely go crazy for the second half.

...

The treatment room is private.

It's too far to get in.

He could only eavesdrop from the corner of the wall.

It's better to come early than to come by coincidence.

He happened to overhear the doctor reprimanding the nurse.

Why didn't Li Hu take his medicine today?

"I clearly saw him swallow it."

"I didn't want to hear your excuses, so the result was that he didn't take his medication."

The doctor's voice sounded extremely angry, even more frightening than Li Hu's when he went berserk.

The nurses didn't dare utter a sound and could only accept the punishment and scolding.

"Didn't you take your medicine?"

Lu Yuan scratched his head, feeling that everything here was absurd.

This is his second day in the hospital; he took his medication yesterday.

The medication administration process was very rigorous, and there was no instance of carelessness on the part of the nurses.

They would ask the patient to make an "ah~" gesture after taking the medicine to check if the medicine was hidden under the tongue.

"This is too bizarre."

The girl who lies under the ginkgo tree, the roommate who turns into a honey badger if he doesn't take his medicine...

He couldn't figure out the key to this until after dinner.

Where does it relate to oneself?

He also didn't have a chance to go to You Lian's side again, because she didn't appear in the public dining area to finish her meal.

This mental hospital has separate sections for men and women.

After dinner, everyone went to their respective areas.

With no clues or leads, Lu Yuan could only focus on his main quest.

Put aside the matter of You Lian and Brother Pingtou.

I'm testing whether I can be discharged from the hospital through normal channels.

So after dinner.

He was about to see the doctor on duty.

In fact, patients need to report to the nurses before going to see a doctor. Although their movements here seem free, they are actually supervised by the nurses throughout the process.

But the nurse who was guarding the distant road was bitten by the honey badger.

She gave herself a simple bandage and applied for leave, but because the incident happened so suddenly and no one could cover for her, she still has to work tonight.

Because what happened tonight was too unexpected.

At that moment, she was absentmindedly crying on the other end of the phone, not knowing whether it was her boyfriend or her parents.

Therefore, Lu Yuan has a lot of freedom to do things tonight.

This is a rare opportunity.

Thanks, Honey Badger.

So, without being notified by anyone, he went to the doctor's office on duty alone.

But just as he placed his hand to knock on the door, he suddenly remembered something.

In many mind-bending scripts, a lot of information is obtained through overhearing.

Why don't you eavesdrop yourself too?

Lu Yuan admitted that this was just his perverse sense of humor.

But as soon as he pressed his ear against the door, he actually heard sounds coming from inside.

"These are red bean cakes I bought especially for you. Are they delicious?"

A male voice came from inside.

It sounds like he must be a doctor.

But the other party in the conversation is definitely silent.

If it weren't here.

Lu Yuan would definitely think the doctor was on the phone.

But here.

There is clearly another possibility for this conversation.

You Lian did not eat in the cafeteria.

"You Lian, your condition is very unstable. Please don't think about being discharged anymore, okay?"

"I'll buy you anything you want—food, drinks, household items, toys."

"Here are the oil pastels and paintbrushes you wanted; you said they were the birthday present you wanted most."

Lu Yuan immediately sensed that something was wrong.

This doctor sounds like a sycophant.

What kind of doctor falls in love with a patient?

But Lu Yuan couldn't hear You Lian's response because she had to write on cardboard.

He could only interpret what You Lian was saying based on what the doctor said.

"I know you'll sense the danger. Wasn't Li Hu, who likes you, locked up?"

"What do you mean that the newcomer Lu Yuan discovered Li Hu's unusual behavior? You want to thank Lu Yuan?"

"I deliberately switched the tranquilizer when I was preparing the medication."

Pinch the horse.

This news is absolutely explosive!

If I didn't lack a phone, I would definitely record this and ruin your career!

Why aren't you drinking the milk tea I bought you?

"Yes, just drink it."

What follows is a lot of content that is utterly devoid of substance and information.

They all sounded similar to: "Aren't my new shoes nice?"

"Don't my clothes look good?"

My mom called me home for dinner today...

This made Lu Yuan wonder how long the doctor had been in the water.

Lu Yuan didn't hide in the corner until he heard the chair being moved.

Waiting for You Lian to push open the door, come out, and leave.

Then, after waiting another ten minutes, trying to avoid any coincidences, I went to the office and knocked on the door.

"Hello there."

"Please come in."

The doctor on duty was a refined-looking man who wore glasses and appeared very polite.

His first look at Lu Yuan was one of surprise, but he hid it well.

It looks like that nurse is going to be in trouble again.

"Doctor, I'd like to discuss my condition."

"Perfect timing, even if you hadn't contacted me, I would have contacted you anyway."

The doctor smiled kindly and said:

"In fact, your condition is very stable. Few people can remain calm and rational about their condition after being admitted to the hospital like you."

"What exactly is wrong with me?"

"Schizoaffective disorder".

They've decided to directly inherit the settings from reality.

But Lu Yuan's illness was cured long ago, so this is clearly just a game setting.

But Lu Yuan can't say he's not sick.

You're in a mental hospital and you're saying you're not sick.

The doctor certainly wouldn't believe it.

All he could ask was, "Approximately how long will my treatment cycle take?"

"It depends on the situation; we need to plan for the long term."

"How long will it take?"

"It depends on the situation; we need to plan for the long term."

Lu Yuan nodded to indicate that he understood.

What is the best way to leave a mental hospital?

The answer is to recover and be discharged from the hospital.

This is clearly the safest route.

Long journey, but patience is key.

He's not sick anyway, as long as he receives normal treatment and performs well in each assessment.

He felt that he was not far from being discharged from the hospital.

"Then I'll be going, doctor."

"OK."

An ordinary conversation, an ordinary story.

Lu Yuan returned to the room where he was now alone.

Take your medication daily as prescribed.

An ordinary sleep.

An ordinary, unremarkable death.

You are dead. Do you wish to rewind?
