Alex's mother is the culprit too, really?

The reason why Alex is so crazy is because he is so excited deep down in his heart!

Finally!

He finally finds his father's flaw!

But his father's next words completely put him into an ice cave, making him feel bone-chilling cold.

"Will this make you feel better? Or is this more in line with your inner guess?"

Alex understands his father's words, so he gets so scared. He hates his sharpness now. If he could be a little confused and doesn't understand the meaning of his father's words, he would feel much better.

But he couldn't. The meaning of his father's words is very clear, which is to tell him clearly that his father knew what Alex was thinking.

This feeling of being seen through by others is not pleasant. The most important thing is that since his father could say this, he must have his reasons, a reason that Alex could not refute.

The father continues to say,

"Remember what I said to you in the car? Think carefully about whether your current behavior is in perfect accordance with what I said?

From the police, I learned the whole story. Although some details are missing, these details will not affect the outcome of the whole thing.

The police have issued a notice to confirm that Dong is the culprit. Is he really the culprit? If he is, what about you? What role did you play in it?"

The father walks in front of Alex and says to Alex who is bowing his head,

"I said you have changed, and the fact is indeed so. You have indeed changed, and you haven't killed anyone in three years. I don't know why. You seem to have become like a normal person.

Until Dong appeared, he may have reminded you of what you had done before, and you began to escape, and then imagined Dong as the real murderer.

But fantasy is fantasy after all. It will definitely be different from reality. What will you do if you notice these differences?"

Alex bows his head and says nothing.

"You have only one way, which is to try your best to make fantasy become reality. Judging from the results, there is no doubt that you succeeded, and even the police believed it.

But!

These were all your own fantasies. Even if it was so perfect and reasonable in the eyes of outsiders, there would always be discrepancies between you and reality.

You can deceive others, but you can't deceive yourself, so in order to deceive yourself, you can only carry out the so-called "fantasy" again.

Is there anyone more suitable than me, a well-known psychologist?"

His father turns his head, looks out the window, and whispers,

"Psychologist, under the background of novels, TV dramas and movies, this profession has become more mysterious and powerful, and in most works, psychologists are villains.

I can understand this, because the attributes of this profession are destined to be unpopular, and no one likes the feeling of being seen through.

So you no longer trust me, and even begin to doubt me."

Alex listens to his father's words, everything is so reasonable, he couldn't accept the fact that he killed the person, so he swapped his identity with Dong, so that Dong killed the person, and he was just a victim who knew about it.

But because he did everything by himself, there must be flaws. In order to make everything fit his "guess", he suspected his father, and the fact seemed to be true.

No! No! There must be something wrong!

Alex doesn't accept this statement!

He looks at his father and asks word by word, "You haven't answered my question yet, why are you so proud?"

"If I don't act proud, would you be so excited?" the father asks back.

"I say the same thing again. I don't know what happened to you that made you not want to kill people anymore, but I don't care and I won't ask questions, because this result is good. Is there anything better that can make you stop killing people?"

Alex frowns and looks at his father in confusion, "So? What is the reason for you to say that?"

The father does not answer, and is silent for a long time before speaking,

"Why? This result may be cruel to you. Are you sure that you want to know?"

Alex stares at his father, and his resolute attitude is very obvious in his eyes.

The father nods helpless and says,

"In order to make you feel at ease, if you think I am the so-called 'real murderer', then I am the 'real murderer'."

Alex widens his eyes and looks at his father in disbelief. The meaning of his father's words is very clear. He is willing to become the 'real murderer' for Alex, just hoping that Alex would not be so painful.

Alex stands there for a long time, and he doesn't believe it. He couldn't believe it at all, because once he believes it, it means that he was the culprit.

Trick! It must be his father's trick!

His father does this to make him doubt himself and then believe that he was the real murderer.

It must be like this! There is no mistake! It must be like this!

Alex looks at his father deeply, and he would not believe anything his father said now. He wants to find evidence by himself, and he truly believes that he would find evidence.

Because there are too many loopholes and unreasonable places in the whole thing, he can definitely find them.

He doesn't intend to waste time with his father anymore, because his father's attitude is already very obvious, and there is no point in him continuing to test it.

He turns and leaves. Not long after he leaves, his mother pushes the door open and asks, "What's going on?"

His father comes forward and hugs her, whispering, "It's almost done, it's almost done."

His mother nods and says, "I hope there won't be any accidents this time."

His father touches her hair and comforts her, "No, things are developing in our direction, and everything will be fine."

His mother looks up at him in his father's arms,

"I know, but will he believe it in the end?"

His father looks down at his mother,

"Do you know? Humans are the most complicated animals in the world.

The more difficult the process is, the more people believe in the result. On the contrary, if the process is simple, people will certainly doubt the result."

His mother nods, and she agrees with this point of view.

"Get ready, it's almost time for you to come on stage."

Hearing his father's words, a bright smile appears on his mother's face.

…

Alex returns to his room. Although he does not believe his father's words, he could not help but think about it in his mind, because in his subconscious mind, he believes that his father's approach is reasonable, correct, and necessary.

Thinking carefully, the father found that his son was an out-and-out murderer., and he could not accept it. He thought about changing his son through his knowledge, but failed. He then realized that he could not change his son with just this knowledge.

Combined with the memory triggered in the basement, perhaps every time the original owner killed someone, his father would punish the original owner accordingly. This may be why the original owner was so fond of beating the victim to death.

The original owner may be venting, venting everything his father did to him on the victim.

Over time, the original owner gradually could not bear this punishment. Until three years ago, the original owner moved out on the grounds of a university internship, but the original owner was still afraid of his father.

So during these three years, the original owner did not kill anyone, but he could not control his urge to kill. On one side was his desire, and on the other was the fear from the bottom of his heart. These two emotions tortured him to the point where he would rather die than live.

At this time, Tang appeared. This time, desire prevailed. He couldn't help but killed Tang. After all, his father had disappeared from his life for three years.

'Gift box' meant that the original owner believed that Tang's appearance is a gift from God.

'Blooming' meant that the original owner believed that he has been reborn.

However, his father appeared in front of him again very soon, which awakened the long-lost fear of the original owner and directly made the original owner collapse. These three years may be left to him by his father on purpose, just like his previous guess.

Just like after a depressed patient gets better, if he relapses again because of something, the difficulty of treatment after the relapse will rise sharply, and even reach the point where it cannot be cured.

After the original owner collapsed, he 'Alex' appeared. His father observed obviously his abnormality through his performance when handling Tang's case. His father thought of this situation, but he should not be able to confirm it directly.

In this way, Tom's appearance may not be accidental. Maybe his father asked him to come to do a test. Tom was his father's student and he also had a hobby of killing. The reason why his father took him in may be to treat the original owner, just like what Alex thought when Alex brought Sofia back.

Alex thought of what Tom said carefully before he died. Tom said that Alex had been deceiving himself and thought that Alex was higher than him. Well, Tom's tone was firm at that time.

It was not until Alex asked who that person was that Tom suddenly changed his attitude and finally said that Alex was very pitiful.

Isn't it pitiful for a personality that was artificially created?
