Free Web NovelChapter 1109: Chapter 1108: Stockholm Syndrome
Li Yan crossed his legs, leaning back in the chair, his expression indifferent, and said, "After all that commotion, nothing unusual turned up."
Now the position on the monitor corresponds to Huang Mengren’s surveillance point. Through the screen, Huang Mengren can be clearly seen yelling frantically, eager to inform Silver Fang of his new discovery.
Qiao Chenyi leaned against the table, casually saying, "According to the investigation data, this Huang Mengren, fifteen years old now, was abducted by the ’Human Fang’ organization at the age of seven. Silver Fang saw some potential in him and kept him, but Huang Mengren became the most loyal follower of Silver Fang!"
Humans really are a divine species; even a relationship between criminal and victim can forcibly transform into a hierarchical relationship, and sometimes it becomes unusually intimate.
Regarding this point, even the trainees working on the case can’t understand Huang Mengren’s true thoughts.
Gu Tong glanced at the screen, flatly saying, "Stockholm Syndrome, huh!"
"What do you mean?" Qiao Chenyi asked with curiosity. freewebnoveℓ.com
Gu Tong explained, "It’s a psychological disorder known as Stockholm Syndrome, or Stockholm Effect, also called Stockholm Syndrome, or Hostage Ideation, or Hostage Syndrome. It refers to the emotional bond a victim develops towards the criminal, ultimately helping the criminal.
This emotion causes the victim to have affection and dependence for the abuser, unknowingly aiding them. Looking at the situation with Silver Fang and Huang Mengren, it’s a typical case of this syndrome!"
Li Yan raised an eyebrow and said, "However, given Silver Fang’s character, he wouldn’t help anyone for no reason unless that person had some special value, so this psychological bond might be deliberately cultivated by Silver Fang!"
Indeed!
Regarding this matter, the three of them reached a shared understanding almost simultaneously.
They all believed Silver Fang had intentionally cultivated Huang Mengren, and because of this, Huang Mengren’s capability became even more remarkable. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Such skills were definitely lacking or unmastered within the ’Human Fang’ organization.
If not for this reason, Silver Fang wouldn’t have put so much effort into him.
Qiao Chenyi thought for a moment, pursed his lips, and said, "If you say so, then I might know where the problem lies!"
"Oh?" Gu Tong became interested and asked, "How so?"
Qiao Chenyi didn’t speak, but instead pointed at the monitor and said, "Look!"
...
On the monitor.
Huang Mengren sat on the ground, looking lost and disheveled. This state had persisted for an unknown duration until he finally went, "Squeak squeak..."
"Squeak squeak, squeak squeak..." His voice was low, resembling the sound a mouse would make, with each tone seeming to summon something.
From the corner of the prison, a mouse slipped through a crack. It poked its head out, as if responding to Huang Mengren, and went, ’Squeak squeak...’
Huang Mengren did not reach out to grab it, letting it sniff around, yet his voice continued, saying, "Squeak squeak..."
’Squeak squeak.’ The mouse took a step forward, as if it had spotted a fellow creature.
Huang Mengren raised his hand, picked up a piece of meat from the plastic bowl on the ground, and tossed it to the mouse, saying, "Squeak squeak squeak..." His manner seemed to be saying, go on, eat!
