Chapter 124 One Body, Two Souls

Chapter 124. One Body, Two Souls

Inside the psychiatric clinic, Bruce looked around blankly. He understood every single word spoken by the mysterious doctor in front of him, but he couldn't understand the combination of words.

Although his own split personality is slightly different, it is still essentially a disease, and Hulk is a product of the disease.

But listening to this mysterious doctor, I had the strange feeling that I had given birth to a child myself.

"Doctor, please forgive me for not understanding a little. I'm sick, isn't this also a kind of treatment?" Bruce looked around, seemingly at a loss. For the first time, he felt the limitations of his knowledge as a world-class scholar.

Ji Yuan leaned back, and the specially made chair transformed into a recliner, swaying gently. He spoke slowly, "Then let me ask you..."

Bruce, what do you see Hulk as?

Bruce rubbed his eyes, carefully choosing his words before answering: "A mental illness caused by radiation that I can't yet understand?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a tightness in his chest, an endless rage burning within him, and a destructive desire spreading through his mind.

His skin instantly turned green, and he seemed about to transform into the Hulk.

"See, you're getting impatient again." Ji Yuan smiled and said dismissively, "Hulk, calm down, we're trying to solve the problem now."

With just one sentence, the raging Hulk calmed down, and Bruce's body slowly returned to normal.

He looked at Ji Yuan in astonishment. This mysterious power was too incredible. Having been entangled with Hulk for so long, he naturally knew how difficult Hulk was to deal with. Every time Hulk went berserk, it required an extremely strong will to suppress it.

But Ji Yuan was able to appease Hulk with just one sentence, silencing its destructive desires.

"See? You think Hulk is a disease, that he gets angry. Think about it carefully, doesn't Hulk become restless and want to destroy everything every time you have the idea of ​​curing him?" Ji Yuan pointed out.

Bruce pondered for a long time, carefully recalling every detail of the past few days. The constant escape seemed to have made him overlook some details.

It seems that every time he wants to treat the illness or get rid of the Hulk, he becomes extremely irritable, to the point that he loses his judgment.

"Yes, doctor, that's true, but what does it matter?"

Bruce replied that he believed it was merely a subconscious resistance, also a psychological issue.

"That's the connection." Ji Yuan sat up and looked directly into Bruce's eyes. "His birth is related to your childhood experiences. Your psychological trauma and gamma radiation contributed to his birth."

"His creation is actually a protective mechanism within you. Its initial purpose was to protect you. Haven't you noticed that it automatically comes out when you're in danger?"

Bruce couldn't help but recall everything his father had done to him when he was a child, and a sense of anger welled up inside him.

But this time, he actually felt a sense of comfort clearly, and that came from Hulk!

"Doctor, what should I do?" Bruce was confused. He roughly understood that Hulk was actually another version of himself. "You need to learn to coexist peacefully with him. You should have a good talk. You need to know what he wants instead of just suppressing him. You need to learn to accept him," Ji Yuan said slowly.

"This..." Bruce looked troubled. He asked doubtfully, "But how should I communicate with him? Every time he appears..."

I could only vaguely sense it; when I reappeared, I was already in another place.

"That's simple, just have the two of you come out and talk to each other directly," Ji Yuan said with a smile.

"What?" Bruce spread his hands, puzzled.

Ji Yuan didn't answer. Instead, he stretched out his two hands and gently pulled Bruce's body slumped onto the table.

His illusory soul appeared in the air, along with Hulk's illusory soul that almost filled the entire clinic. "What the hell is this?!" Bruce looked at his illusory hands and then at the limp body lying below, almost unable to describe the feeling.

"Hulk, I am Hulk." After a brief moment of surprise, Hulk adapted to his new state and began to "move" around the clinic.

She looked exactly like a giant green fish, her face full of childlike innocence, feeling a sense of ease that was completely different from being suppressed for so long.

"Just some minor out-of-body tricks, nothing to be surprised about, Bruce. Now you can have a proper talk with Hulk," Ji Yuan said with interest.

In fact, Bruce's current situation is worth studying. Judging from the current situation, this is a case of one body with two souls. Split personality is not that mysterious. It can only be said that the universe is so vast that anything is possible.

Bruce was slightly surprised for a moment, but quickly calmed down. After all, this made him completely certain of the existence of the soul, which was a scientific milestone, wasn't it?

"Hulk, I think we can have a good talk," he shouted to Hulk, who was "swimming" freely.

However, Hulk completely ignored him, continuing to "swim" on his own, muttering, "Hulk is so relaxed, Hulk is free!"

Hulk is Hulk.

"Hulk? Hulk!" Bruce called out several times, but Hulk ignored him completely. He covered his forehead and suddenly felt a headache even in his soul state.

Left with no other option, he could only look at Ji Yuan: "Doctor, I don't think I can control him, could you—"

"Alright!" Ji Yuan waved his hand. "Let's not talk about communication for now. I want to ask you another question first."

"Given its current state, do you still consider Hulk a disease?"

"This—" Bruce glanced at the Hulk beside him, who looked as innocent as a child. This was completely different from the Hulk he knew.

Furthermore, judging from his current state, Hulk also possesses a soul, which seems to be beyond the explanation of simple split personality. At least, split personality wouldn't involve a soul, would it?

"Has he already become a complete individual?" Bruce asked with a hint of doubt.

Ji Yuan nodded: "His appearance is the result of a combination of factors. As it stands, he is an individual with independent consciousness and personality, and your treatment is essentially killing him, which is why he is angry."

"And what he truly desires is definitely not simple destruction. As for what it is, you can ask him yourself."

Bruce nodded, his tone no longer commanding but gentle: "Hulk, I think we can talk."

+

This time, Hulk didn't ignore him. Instead, he said in a deep voice, "Now, you have the right to speak to Hulk."
