Crazy Psychologist

When Dad drinks, the world becomes eerily quiet, quieter than at night when everyone is asleep, quieter than an empty school corridor.

It was as scary as when he fell into the bottom of the swimming pool as a child and couldn't hear any sound. The whole world couldn't hear his screams, and he couldn't make any screams. Even if the screams were louder, the adults didn't seem to hear them at all. Less than.

That's it, when Dad drinks, the whole world makes Zhou Ming crazy.

He screamed in the middle of the night, in the early morning, in the afternoon, at any time. He screamed with all his strength, but he felt that it was still not enough, not loud enough, not enough to reach his father's ears.

Until my throat became hoarse, I couldn't scream, and I fell asleep.

Neighbors complained to the neighborhood committee, and the neighborhood committee came to persuade Zhou Tong to drink less. Think about it, although Dai Lan no longer takes care of you two, you are a father, so you have to take care of your children.

Once, Zhou Tong was drunk for two whole days and two nights. Zhou Ming screamed when he was scared and went to bed when he was tired. As a result, he ate all the peanuts at home and the old-fashioned beef sauce in the refrigerator. He barely managed to survive on the first day. After getting through it, the next day, Zhou Ming didn't eat anything all day long. When Zhou Tong woke up from drunkenness on Sunday afternoon, he found that his son was already groggy and hungry and had no energy at all, so he hurriedly staggered I ran downstairs and bought a roast duck, a barbecued pork, five white steamed buns, a coleslaw and a bottle of cheap white wine.

Zhou Ming sat on the bench in front of the convenience store, hungry but not wanting to go home.

After finally escaping, he thought he might try again this time to find his mother.

Every time, his mother would take him to Lawson at the intersection of Hengyuan Road to buy snacks. She would buy a lot every time. Maybe it was a place that her mother was very familiar with.

With such hope, Zhou Ming kept walking forward and sat on the bench in front of Lawson for an unknown amount of time. As night fell slowly, he counted the customers who walked into the convenience store until he reached 198. The delicious smell of The lunch box also includes warm seaweed rice balls and sweet hot chocolate. These are Zhou Ming’s favorite foods. If his mother is here, he will buy a lot of them for him and let him eat them slowly at home, but his father always drinks. Just eat all his food. He is a big brown bear who will steal other people's food.

Zhou Ming hugged his knees. In mid-December, the moon appeared earlier and night came earlier.

Zhou Ming went from being full of confidence to despair.

Mom won't come today. Mom will come today. Mom won't come today.

No, I won't come. Mom will definitely know that I am waiting for her here. When I was playing hide and seek since I was a kid, my mom didn't find him right away.

Mom always knows where Zhou Ming is.

Mommy mommy.

It wasn't until he counted 160 more people that Zhou Ming cried. He had endured it for a long time because his mother said that boys should not cry all the time when they grow up.

Finally, accompanied by cold and hunger, Zhou Ming fell asleep on the bench. When he woke up, he saw Zhou Tong standing in front of him.

"Why did you run away from the hospital? Do you know how worried I am? Come back with me quickly. I searched for it many times along the road, but I never thought that you would hide behind this flower bed and say, "What do you want to eat? Dad will give me something to eat." you buy it."

Zhou Ming nodded, wiped away his tears, and followed Zhou Tong into the convenience store.

"Rice balls, what else are there?" Zhou Tong asked, while calculating whether the balance in his mobile phone was enough to get an extra bottle of Jiang Xiaobai for himself, preferably two bottles.

Finally, Zhou Tong, who bought rice balls, hot chocolate and two bottles of Jiang Xiaobai, took Zhou Ming home.

Zhou Ming finished his rice balls and drank hot chocolate. He was sleepy and tired. It was bad enough that he hadn't gone to school for a day. He still had homework to finish, but it didn't matter anymore. No one cared about his grades anyway.

The teacher asked parents to come to school. He told Zhou Tong, and Zhou Tong always agreed gently, and then nothing happened.

Zhou Ming hugged the big brown bear. One of the big brown bear's ears had been exposed from dark brown coarse cloth, and all the plush on it was bald.

Dai Lan once complained that this big brown bear was really cheating money, so why did it start to shed its fur, and it was still falling neatly.

Ever since her mother told her, every time her mother came to pick up Zhou Ming, Zhou Ming would hide the big brown bear under the quilt.

Don't be seen by your mother, don't let anything happen that makes your mother unhappy, and there is also the secret of the big brown bear. The big brown bear always knows when his mother will come.

Much easier than asking dad.

"Hey, Xiao Neng, come and give me a hug." Zhou Ming bit the big bear and said, "Good night, Xiao Neng."

After waiting silently for three seconds in his heart, Zhou Ming said to himself: "Good night, my little brown bear, good night my little sweetheart, good night my little honey, good night my little star, good night my Xiao Ming, good night to the cutest one in the world. baby."

12.20 On Wednesday, the atmosphere of Christmas has become stronger and stronger, and thick white clouds are squeezing over the city, as if a heavy Christmas snow is brewing.

When he was about to arrive at the hospital, Muchun received a call from Zhang Wenwen. Due to the time difference, Zhang Wenwen looked like he had just come out of the gym or swimming pool and was in high spirits.

Muchun joked: "Not bad, Dr. Zhang is still suitable for the soil and water of North America."

"What do you mean, I am a super patriotic doctor."

"Ah, I believe it, so do I."

The two exchanged pleasantries for three words, and Zhang Wenwen suddenly said with a hint of frustration: "Chun, I might not be able to come back for Christmas."

"Being entangled by your girlfriend?" Muchun asked.

"What kind of girlfriend? There is no woman who can entangle me with Zhang Wenwen. Except for the beautiful Mu, there is no one else."

Zhang Wenwen's pretentious humor actually made Mu Chun a little worried. Firstly, the "Annual Mental Health Conference" was coming soon. Secondly, Zhinan Affiliated always had end-of-year work that he had to come back to complete in person, so it was impossible to extend the vacation for no reason.

What important thing happened to Zhang Wenwen?

"I have a lot of things to discuss with Professor Chu and Muchun. We have a lot to do tomorrow, but in five hours I will rush to Malaysia to investigate an incredible thing."

"An incredible thing?"

Although Mu Chun asked this on the phone, he also vaguely felt that Zhang Wenwen would not directly tell him what the specific investigation was on the phone, which made Mu Chun even more worried.

Although Zhang Wenwen is extremely smart, he is also used to being free and uninhibited.

"Don't get involved with legal issues, such as illegal surgeries."

Muchun tried to say.

Zhang Wenwen, who had always had a hearty smile, suddenly became silent. Muchun's worry became more intense.
