Capítulo 693: Chapter 613: Professor Ji: Go Compete with Nan Zhubin for More Cases!

Teacher Yijin Jiao was still a bit dazed from being sprayed by Weng Pinting, but upon seeing the situation, he swiftly started brainstorming an answer and replied, “It’s Xiao Hei, a third-year graduate student. He talked to you before about wanting to stay at the school…”

Professor Ji thought for a moment but couldn’t recall the face, though vaguely two heavy dark circles seemed to emerge.

He must be quite a diligent researcher.

“Which group is he in?” Professor Ji pulled out his phone and asked.

Teacher Yijin Jiao hurriedly pointed it out to his mentor, then watched the other party dial the number, wanting to speak but hesitating.

Beep—beep—beep—

The phone was dialed, but for a long time, there was no response, causing Professor Ji to furrow his brows.

Fortunately, before the message “No one answered” appeared, the teacher on the other side finally picked up: “Hello, teacher? I just finished a consultation…”

Professor Ji interrupted before the other teacher could finish: “You’ve interacted with Nan Zhubin from Bai Qinghua’s group?”

“Uh… well, I guess so.”

Professor Ji pressed further, “What’s going on with him?”

The other side hesitated for a moment: “Teacher, I think there’s something wrong with Nan Zhubin.”

This answer made Professor Ji loosen his furrowed brow, indicating his forgetful disciple should elaborate.

But the more he listened, the more his brows furrowed again.

“Micro-expression Analysis? Hypnosis? He completed several interventions while you were still discussing?”

These were things that hadn’t been brought up in the recent meeting; listening to his firsthand account from the thick black circle disciple, Professor Ji’s expression grew increasingly vivid.

Professor Ji’s primary focus is not psychological consultation; Weng Pinting’s critique in the meeting wasn’t entirely wrong—Professor Ji’s consulting skills are not as strong as Chonghui’s.

Yet, even with Professor Ji’s limited consultation knowledge, he could sense something was off.

“How many consultations have you completed now?” Professor Ji asked again.

“… Just one.”

“What?!” Professor Ji’s voice suddenly rose, “So long and you’ve only done one?”

“Previously, other group teachers were discussing files and hadn’t started interventions… Also, this is psychological intervention, not a consultation…” The other side stammered in explanation, “So it can’t be calculated using standard consultation time; this visitor took a long while…”

Professor Ji didn’t continue listening to that explanation. He turned his thoughts to Teacher Yijin Jiao and asked, “Among the people we brought this time, how many have a consultation foundation?”

Teacher Yijin Jiao hesitated, then started racking his brains: “For foundation… they all have a bit, right? Doesn’t the school occasionally host skill training seminars or something, and everyone goes to listen…”

“Then get them to do the intervention. You and I will handle the organizational structure.” Professor Ji decided, “With ‘Group Hysteria’ as a key focus, there will definitely be a lot of visits, assessments, and psychological interventions. We need more people over there. Initially, bringing them over was just for odd jobs; now they have serious tasks, let them move.”

“Bai Qinghua’s disciple… really isn’t simple. That Nan Zhubin has some skill. Only then can we snatch some things from his hands.”

Teacher Yijin Jiao hesitated, then immediately understood Professor Ji’s meaning.

This was an attempt to carve out a share in the ‘Group Hysteria’ project while completing the organizational structure.

However…

“Teacher, I don’t think they can handle issues at the ‘Group Hysteria’ level.” Teacher Yijin Jiao gritted his teeth, giving his suggestion, “They’ve only received basic training and might not be confident in handling college-level student psychological issues…”

It seems the mentor was stimulated in the previous meeting, and is a bit headstrong now.

“What are you thinking, of course, I know.” Yet, Professor Ji looked at his disciple with a confused expression.

Professor Ji said, “They might not be able to do therapeutic interventions, but they can do measurements, compile questionnaires, gather data, and integrate basic research with current applications.”

Oh, now Teacher Yijin Jiao thoroughly understood.

Other expert teams, after the meeting, will all likely give similar orders to their teams.

Besides Bai Qinghua’s research team, others who came to the disaster area didn’t directly intervene in ‘Group Hysteria’ level issues.

But through their professional perspectives, from aspects like social cognition, physiological mechanism analysis, psychological measurement, they can all skim off some data from the issue.

Teacher Yijin Jiao immediately replied, “I’ll make arrangements right away.”

Watching his disciple start to marshal his forces, Professor Ji nodded, and turned to the thick black circle disciple on the phone, “How many cases has Nan Zhubin done now?”

“… Uh…” The black circle teacher hesitated again, “I’m not sure.”

—————–

[Monthly Goal: Complete “Psychological Consultation” 10 hours (10/10) within 1 month; upon completion, undergo [Psychological Ability Training]]

[Monthly Goal Completed]

[You have undergone [Psychological Ability Training]]

[Energy Recovery Speed +1]

In the Dream Consulting Room, Nan Zhubin looked at the words displayed on the computer screen and raised an eyebrow.

The working hours at the camp aren’t as regular as in a company; there’s no talk of “off work,” only “rest.”

Therefore, as long as Nan Zhubin wants, he can call over the visitors from the files anytime for a chat without disrupting rescue and settlement work.

It’s incredibly beneficial for him.

Using [Emotion Rebalancing], he continually reset his mental state until he was dizzy, and all the visitors from the files were on break; only then did Nan Zhubin finish the day’s work.

As soon as he fell asleep, he saw the harvest of today.

Directly completed this month’s [Monthly Goal].

The reward acquired was very powerful.

“[Energy Recovery Speed] huh…” Nan Zhubin mouthed the words.

Last month’s [Monthly Goal] reward was [Energy Limit], which Nan Zhubin was very satisfied with. Unfortunately, because there were too few visitors during the New Year, he couldn’t accumulate this reward.

“Yet, [Energy Recovery Speed]… also has a similar marvel.” Thinking about it, Nan Zhubin’s eyes gradually lit up.

Facing the current numerous and fast-paced psychological intervention tasks, in some sense, this [Energy Recovery Speed] might be even better?

“Luckily, it’s not a debuff like with [charm]; otherwise, with so many psychological interventions ahead and so many [Monthly Goal] rewards to earn, I’d really have some concerns.” Nan Zhubin felt relieved.

“Facing the upcoming itinerary… this might become a positive loop!”

He seemingly saw some pleasant scenes ahead, and Nan Zhubin’s grin grew ever wider.

Then he took a deep breath, went over to the bookshelf, and picked up some files and verbatim interview scripts—these were the fruits of his work tonight.

He sat back at the desk, meticulously reading while starting to write and draw, planning the next intervention scheme.

——Six hours later.

Awareness ascended, leaving the Dream Consulting Room.

“Hiss…” Nan Zhubin took a deep breath, slowly opened his eyes.

Sitting up from the bed, he felt his body—refreshed!

The exhaustion from yesterday’s travel and the pressure from long consultations were all swept away by sleep!

Nan Zhubin had never felt so good.

Beside him, Chonghui paused his typing as he heard Nan Zhubin stirring: “You’re awake? It’s already this time… no wait, how is it still so early?”

Chonghui looked at the time displayed on the computer, then at Nan Zhubin’s radiant face, hesitatingly asked, “You… were so tired yesterday, do you want to sleep a bit more…”
