Chapter 217: Entering Jiang Ran’s Inner World
At this very moment.
Lucas opened his eyes.
After opening his eyes, he found himself seemingly back in America.
More precisely, in an American small town.
Because looking around, there were rows of independent villas on both sides.
Along with wide roads and lawns.
"This is... the inner world of Jiang Ran's dissociative identity disorder?"
Lucas continuously looked around as he walked forward.
He walked for about five minutes without seeing a single person. The small town was extremely quiet.
At the ten-minute mark. He finally saw people.
Beside a white marble fountain statue of Jiang Ran, there were several people.
Lucas didn't choose to hide or anything, but instead strode forward boldly.
As he noticed the people by the fountain statue, they also noticed him.
Therefore, all their gazes focused on him.
"Well, well, well, I originally thought this mixed-race guy was just a quack doctor, but I never expected he could actually enter here?"
At this moment, a blue-haired Jiang Ran who looked exactly like the real Jiang Ran but with blue hair spoke in a cheerful tone.
Lucas naturally heard this too, stopping about three meters away from these people.
Looking around, he noticed all these people had the same face.
The only differences were their clothing and hairstyles.
"Entering here isn't particularly surprising, after all, this isn't the first person's inner world I've entered."
Lucas smiled faintly.
"However, what I didn't expect was that Jiang Ran's inner world would be so complete."
"This situation is extremely rare;
it seems I bet correctly this time."
Currently, there were five "Jiang Rans" standing here.
The other four didn't seem to like talking much, as only the blue-haired Jiang Ran had been conversing with Lucas.
Blue-haired Jiang Ran asked Lucas: "Your name is Lucas, right? What's your purpose in coming here? To help the main personality eliminate us?"
"If that's really the case, I advise you to abandon this idea."
"Because you're not the first outsider to enter this inner landscape world."
"A long time ago, a middle-aged psychological doctor with superb hypnosis skills also entered here. He wanted to help the main personality eliminate us."
"We all warned him to get lost immediately, to stay away from the main personality, otherwise he was definitely going to die."
"Who would have thought that guy was a complete madman, completely disregarding his own safety, still trying to eliminate us to complete his thesis."
"Then, he was controlled by one of us and directly killed."
Blue-haired Jiang Ran said this with a cold smile, clearly threatening Lucas.
"Inner landscape world? That's what Hua Country calls this. Overseas, including America, we call it the inner world."
"It seems the first outsider to enter here was a Hua Country doctor."
Facing the cold intent in blue-haired Jiang Ran's previous words, Lucas showed no fear at all.
He said calmly: "There's something you've misunderstood. I came here not to help the main personality eliminate you."
"On the contrary, I want to help you eliminate the main personality and let you take control of the body."
Hearing this, blue-haired Jiang Ran and the other Jiang Rans all stiffened.
Then they looked at each other, wondering if they had misheard.
"Help us? You're that kind? What's in it for you?"
Blue-haired Jiang Ran simply didn't believe it.
Lucas still maintained his faint smile:
"Simple, because I'm also a dissociative identity disorder patient, and I eliminated the main personality to take its place."
Whoosh!
Calm words created turbulent waves.
If blue-haired Jiang Ran and the others were previously at ordinary levels of confusion, now they reached advanced levels of bewilderment.
Blue-haired Jiang Ran frowned: "But that still doesn't make sense. Even if we're all alternate personalities, there's no reason for you to help us?"
Lucas spread his hands: "That's exactly the reason - we share the same suffering. Believe it or not."
Blue-haired Jiang Ran and the other Jiang Rans nearby exchanged glances.
They seemed to be communicating with their eyes.
They first retreated to the side, then quietly discussed for five minutes.
Then returned to their original positions.
After returning, it was still blue-haired Jiang Ran who spoke with Lucas:
"Even if we believe you, how do you plan to help us eliminate the main personality?"
"Do you know how strong the main personality is?"
"The main personality is completely opposite to those ordinary dissociative identity disorder patients."
"Those ordinary patients developed other protective personalities because they suffered unacceptable traumatic experiences in childhood that caused psychological illness, to protect the main personality."
"But our situation is completely opposite."
"So, do you have the capability? Don't end up failing to eliminate the main personality and instead bring the main personality down here. We just lost one alternate personality not long ago."
Lucas listened to these words with a slight smile: "Just leave it to me. Capability needs to be proven, not just talked about. No matter how beautifully I describe it now, it's useless."
After saying this, Lucas suddenly froze.
At this moment, he turned his head back.
Unclear when, another Jiang Ran had appeared behind him.
This Jiang Ran wore a full black long coat.
His hair looked fixed with hair gel, all standing straight up.
Then, his face had black smoky eye makeup.
Under the smoky makeup, this Jiang Ran's smile looked truly eerie.
Smoky Makeup Jiang Ran, seeing that Lucas had noticed him, without saying a word, suddenly thrust his right hand forward.
This thrust created a scene that was hard to believe.
He actually directly pierced through Lucas's heart area.
According to real-world circumstances.
Such piercing would be almost impossible to achieve with just a human hand.
Even if it were possible, there should now be massive amounts of blood spraying from the chest area.
But now, Lucas with his heart pierced through.
Only showed extreme pain on his face, his solid form gradually dissipating.
"You!"
Lucas still wanted to say something to Smoky Makeup Jiang Ran.
But at that moment, Smoky Makeup Jiang Ran punched Lucas's neck with his left hand.
Lucas's body dissipated faster.
Within seconds, he completely disappeared.
Seeing Smoky Makeup Jiang Ran kill Lucas who had just entered,
The other Jiang Rans present besides blue-haired Jiang Ran all showed fearful expressions.
As if they were extremely afraid of this Smoky Makeup Jiang Ran.
Therefore, only blue-haired Jiang Ran communicated with this Smoky Makeup Jiang Ran:
"Hey, he came to help us eliminate the main personality? Why did you kill him?"
Hearing this, Smoky Makeup Jiang Ran supported his neck with his right hand, continuously cracking and twisting it, stretching.
His eerie smile remained on his face:
"Just woke up, stretching my limbs a bit."
Blue-haired Jiang Ran frowned: "Stretching your limbs? Who are you trying to fool?"
Smoky Makeup Jiang Ran continued smiling: "Well, well, well, you're still the clever one."
Blue-haired Jiang Ran: "So why did you kill him?"
Smoky Makeup Jiang Ran: "Anyway, he won't die in reality, so it doesn't count as killing."
"Besides, I killed him purely because I didn't like him and didn't believe what he said."
"Also, him helping us eliminate the main personality? Who knows if it's real help or fake help."
