4353 The Other Side 322

Youyou nodded gravely, his heart heavy for some reason. “I understand. I’ll do my best to protect Gong Fan.”

Alice was greatly amused at that. “Silly boy. You just have to protect yourself.”

“But as you said, even if I were to die in the dream, I will still exist in reality. On the other hand, Gong Fan’s existence would be in danger. I have to protect him!”

Upon hearing this, Alice was silent for a moment. For some reason, she thought of Yun Shishi’s earlier concerns. She couldn’t help but ask indirectly, “If there came a day when everyone would choose to give up Gong Fan, what… would you choose?”

“Why would we give him up?”

“…”

Youyou seemed confused. “I’ll never give up Gong Fan. He’s another me. He’s the other half of my soul. If he disappears, I will be incomplete, no matter how good I am.”

Alice nodded, gratified, and scratched the bridge of his nose. “You’re such a gentle child, Youyou.”

Soon, Professor Romanka arrived with some necessary instruments for hypnosis. He entered the room and approached the boy. “Are you ready?” he asked with concern.

“Yes.”

“Here’s a cup of milk tea.” Professor Romanka handed the boy a cup. “Drink this. It has a small dose of sedatives. Just a little.”

Before entering the hypnosis experiment, it was necessary for Youyou to take some sedatives. Otherwise, if a person was extremely awake, it would be difficult for him to enter hypnosis in a good state.

As the boy took a sip of milk tea, Romanka set up a dim yellow lamp and switched it on. He went to the window and drew the curtains. The large room was suddenly plunged into pitch darkness, save the weak light that came from the lamp before Youyou.

After drinking the milk tea, the boy didn’t feel much, and he wasn’t very sleepy. He had enough sleep to begin with, so he was wide awake.

Professor Romanka sat down in front of him and greeted him in a friendly manner.

“Hello, Youyou. I’m Romanka.”

He held out his hand to the boy as if greeting a gentleman.

The boy shook his outstretched hand gently and smiled. “How do you do?”

“We will soon begin our experiment. Are you ready?”

“Yes.”

“Okay, then, let me tell you a story. First, lean back in your chair and relax. Yes, good…”

He settled the boy down. Then, in a softer voice, he said, “Don’t breathe too hard. Be quiet… Quieter… Slowly adjust your breathing frequency…”

He set a metronome on the table, adjusted it, and instructed the boy to adjust his breathing to the rhythm.

Romanka proceeded to tell him a story.

It was a very dry fairy tale.

The boy wondered what the point of Romanka telling this story was. Wasn’t this supposed to be a hypnosis experiment? Why was he telling a story?

However, only Alice knew that Romanka’s hypnosis had officially begun without the boy realizing!

In the dark and quiet room, with the dim yellow lamp and Romanka’s deep voice, the sedative in the milk tea began to quietly take effect…
