Chapter 616: Chapter 590: Talking Back and Protecting the Calf
“Whoever is being unreasonable, I will confront them. If you’re not serving the people in your governnt position, you might as well go ho and sell sweet potatoes. A black cat or a white cat, as long as it can catch mice, it’s a good cat. Even though I’m not an official employee here, I can solve this Zhiming case. So what’s wrong with being a free consultant? I don’t know what rank you hold, but whoever you are, your ultimate responsibility is to serve the people. This case is still unsolved, and if you question the decision of the Research Institute to invite , it just shows you don’t want to get things done properly!”
Who doesn’t know how to make up big accusations, or put on an official tone? Xiao Qian doesn’t care who they are, her style has always been to fight back if soone doesn’t back down!
The leader went from initially being dumbfounded and not believing that anyone would dare to confront him, to being shocked. Everyone around him was also stunned, including Fu Gui’s colleagues.
“So you an a young girl who hasn’t even grown facial hair could solve a case that has left an entire research institute at a loss? You sure talk big!”
Xiao Qian pushed away Liao Fu Gui’s hand that was in her way and faced the irritable leader directly.
“First of all, I am a normal girl with normal hormones, so there’s no way I could grow facial hair. Second, I brush my teeth every day, so there is no way I could have bad breath. As a leader, you should think before you speak.”
If it weren’t for the tension in the room, soone would have laughed. The leader had been ranting all morning, and Xiao Qian was really giving it back to him.
“Don’t be so clever with your words here. You say you can solve this case. Do you know the consequences of speaking recklessly if you can’t solve it?”
Liao Fu Gui’s leader hurriedly signaled to Fu Gui to get his younger sister under control.
Everyone in the institute knew about the relationship between Xiao Qian and Liao Fu Gui, and knew that Xiao Qian had helped many patients with psychological issues to get treated in the past. They acknowledged her abilities in her field, but today’s case was too complicated. If she couldn’t solve it, the consequences would be enormous.
Liao Fu Gui’s leader hoped that Fu Gui would be able to placate the situation, but he didn’t expect Fu Gui to make such a surprising move.
“I’m willing to vouch for my assistant. I believe she can do it. If she can’t, I will resign.”
All were caught off guard by Liao Fu Gui, who was always mild-mannered, suddenly saying such words.
This workplace was not your ordinary place, and outsiders could not enter. As long as you could get in, it was a lifeti job security. For showing such support to Xiao Qian, Liao Fu Gui’s direct leader was worried.
“Yun Chang! Think it through!”
“I have thought it through. I believe in my assistant Chen Xiaoqian’s ability, and I am willing to vouch for her.”
Although Liao Fu Gui said this, he had already prepared himself to leave his white coat behind and find another job.
His colleagues were all authorities with official titles, and many of them were also doctoral supervisors or postgraduate tutors at universities. They were at a loss, and it was unlikely that Xiao Qian, a student, would have a better solution.
But this was his little sister, and since she had spoken, as her elder brother, he had to show his attitude. What was the big deal about losing a job? As long as there was a sky and earth, there was no place where they couldn’t find a al to eat.
Xiao Qian saw Liao Fu Gui backing her up so strongly and thought that the treatnt of being his sibling was certainly different from that of being an opponent. In his past life, Liao Fu Gui had been at loggerheads with her, but in this life, as her brother, he turned that energy against others, which was rather pleasing to her.
“Young lady, you have to be responsible for what you say!” The leader who had berated her earlier was now stern.
Liao Fu Gui’s face turned red, but he didn’t back down.
“I will keep my word. If because of and my assistant’s involvent causes a delay in everyone’s work, I am willing to resign.”
In fact, anyone with sense could see that the leader was just looking for trouble because the pressure of solving the case was getting to him. Many in the room were doctoral supervisors or postgraduate tutors at universities, and so of them had brought their students along to gain experience with unusual cases. It wasn’t uncommon for hospital doctors to bring students along, as they were cultivating specialized talents.
But they were all under a lot of pressure, and things had escalated to this point. The leader was venting his anger at them, and Liao Fu Gui was unwilling to give in.
There wasn’t much he could do for his brothers and sisters, but he would use every ounce of his ability to help them. He still had that much loyalty.
The atmosphere grew awkward, as the leader was just looking for a way to vent, and did not expect anyone to say such words.
Xiao Qian spoke again, still in her calm and collected deanor, more at ease than anyone else in the room.
“If I can’t solve it, he’ll resign. But if I can, how will you compensate for the conclusions you just ca to without thought?”
“How much money do you want—”
“Talking about money as soon as you open your mouth, how vulgar! Rember, the dignity of an intellectual is priceless. Right now I want to find a way to bring out Zhiming’s second personality. If I can do it, I request you to apologize to everyone here.”
Xiao Qian pointed her finger at the leader’s nose and carless about whether he could save face or not, she turned her head and said to Liao Fu Gui.
“Go, find a realistic-looking green snake, preferably one that looks almost real.”
“A realistic snake?”
“Yes, go and prepare the brainwave detection equipnt, too. The mont Zhiming’s second personality erges, his brainwaves will change. This is still a blank field in dostic dical science. You should record it and leave a written reference for future students.”
Her completely confident tone made all the experts present feel like she was their ntor and they were her students.
It was not arrogance, but the confidence in her profession that radiated from her involuntarily.
The crowd gathered around, wanting to see how Xiao Qian would do it. Liao Fu Gui couldn’t help but feel anxious for her.
Just now, the psychiatric authority had tried to awaken Zhiming’s second personality using hypnosis, but failed. What was Xiao Qian going to do with a snake?
While waiting for the snake to arrive, Xiao Qian explained to Liao Fu Gui in a very authoritative tone.
“Usually, besides authoritative scales, the most effective way to identify multiple personalities is through hypnosis. Once they enter a hypnotic state, most patients with split personalities can have their personalities awakened. However, there are a few who don’t cooperate, so I’m going to try an extre thod now, to stimulate Zhiming’s split personality to erge.”
The “collapse therapy” she ntioned made many experts in the field nod in agreent. It was theoretically workable.
“But do you know what his breaking point is? Every patient with split personalities is different – there are timid ones, violent ones, and even so with great artistic talent. How are you going to find it?” Liao Fu Gui asked the key question that everyone else was wondering about.
Xiao Qian accepted the fake snake prop that soone handed over and played with it for a mont. It had a pretty soft feel to it and at a glance, it did resemble Zhiming’s late pet snake, Cui’er.
She held the snake and tapped Fu Gui’s head with the snakehead, “Other people might not be able to find it, but I’m the expert you invited, can’t I find it? Get the voice recorder ready later when soone has to apologize, let’s record it and play it on loop for whoever doesn’t understand your work in the future.”
No one dared to look at the expression on the leader’s face at that mont.
