Chapter 947: Sensory Deprivation, Madness!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Absolute darkness, where one could not see their own fingers.
No one spoke beside her ears. Su Wan could even hear her own breathing.
Su Wan sighed. She finally understood what the so-called Quiet Room was.
She carefully used her hand to support herself against the wall beside her. She kept recalling the words of the teacher in criminal psychology.
The so-called sensory deprivation was to make a person collapse on their own will.
When a person was placed in complete darkness and felt that they were alone, without any external stimulation other than themself, their entire sense would mutate.
A person was a product of society. If they did not survive in society, then there would be a pathological change.
This change was not only psychological, but also physical.
When you open your eyes, it is endless darkness. When you close your eyes, you will feel that your eyesight is failing.
You cannot hear anyone else’s voice. You talk to yourself, trying to find a voice in the empty silence. In the end, you will suspect that you are hearing voices.
The same goes for touch.
And your sense of smell…
They will all collapse in this environment without external stimulation.
In such an environment, your mind will be confused and you’ll lose focus until you have hallucinations. All kinds of physiological senses will become diseased and you won’t be able to achieve normal biological functions.
…
Su Wan sighed again and recalled what her teacher said.
It was said that there were many vicious organizations that not only liked to kill people, but also liked to use such extreme methods to damage a person’s will.
This was a complete defeat from a social psychology perspective.
No matter how strong a person’s spirit was, as long as one stayed in such an environment for a long time, they would sooner or later break down.
It was only a matter of time.
How long could she last?
A day? A week? Half a month?
No wonder that Aunt Shen was crying so hard that she refused to come to the Quiet Room.
Su Wan could not help but clench her teeth.
She had always thought that she did not like too noisy an environment. However, when she really stayed in such an absolutely quiet place, Su Wan realized that noise was not unbearable.
Drops of sweat slid down from Su Wan’s palm.
Su Wan heard her own heartbeat, beat after beat, like a drum.
In fact, her heartbeat did not increase. It was just that in this boundless silence, even such a tiny sound was amplified.
Su Wan recalled the expression on Fiennes’ face. She felt that at least for now, Fiennes would not let her die.
That’s right, the problem now was not whether Fiennes wanted her to die, but Su Wan was afraid that if she stayed in this small dark room for too long, she would choose to commit suicide first.
It was really… too quiet.
Who could say something to her, even if it was to scold her a little?
Su Wan blinked her eyes, but she did not see any light.
She might as well go to sleep.
Su Wan thought so.
So Su Wan rubbed the wall, slowly laid her body flat, and lay down in the dark.
…
Su Wan was woken up by her rumbling stomach.
She was too hungry.
Even sleeping couldn’t support her.
Su Wan rubbed her sleepy eyes, but she still couldn’t see anything. When she woke up, Su Wan vaguely felt that she smelled the aroma of food.
Was it an illusion?
Was it because she was hungry that she imagined the smell of food?
Su Wan hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she still groped forward.
With a clatter, it was the sound of chopsticks falling to the ground.
There was really food!
Su Wan suddenly touched the pair of chopsticks that had fallen to the ground. At this moment, she didn’t care about whether they were dirty or not.
When a person’s survival became a problem, everything else seemed to become a small matter.
Because she could not see anything, Su Wan was eating in a very awkward manner.
Su Wan was eating very carefully, but she could not help breaking something.
Su Wan could not help but smile bitterly.
It turned out that without light, her survival ability would be so poor.
If she had known earlier, she would have participated in that activity to experience the blind. She would have experienced what it was like to be in a world without light.
…
After barely finishing her meal, Su Wan slowly felt her way to the corner of the wall. She crouched on the ground in a sorry state and hugged her knees.
She could still hear her own heartbeat.
It was so quiet…
It was too quiet.
Who could say a word to her? Even a single word would do…
Su Wan’s mind was spinning. She suddenly felt nauseous.
She didn’t know why, but she felt nauseous.
In this pitch-black darkness, Su Wan felt like she was going crazy.
She was really going crazy.
How long had it been?
Was it a few hours, half a day, or a day?
Su Wan couldn’t tell the exact time.
So Su Wan simply fell asleep again.
When she woke up this time, she was still accompanied by a strong sense of hunger.
There was no day, only eternal night. There was no noise, only endless silence.
…
Su Wan, Oh Su Wan, you can’t sleep anymore.
This time, they did not even send her food.
Su Wan smiled bitterly and gently stroked her stomach that was constantly crying out.
Su Wan thought that since Fiennes had sent someone to send her food for the first time, there would be a second time.
Because he must have only wanted to break her spirit, but he did not want her to die so early.
After all, she was still useful.
Su Wan decided that she must wait until someone came to bring her meal.
She wanted to beg them to let her see Fiennes. She had really had enough of the environment here.
It was too terrifying.
It was too spacious.
It was too… lifeless…
It turned out that a person’s world could really drive a person crazy.
Because she had not eaten for too long and had not drunk even a drop of water, her stomach felt like it was turning upside down.
Su Wan’s pupils dilated. In the darkness, she kept calling her name to cheer herself on.
Later on, calling “Su Wan” did not work. Su Wan changed to calling Jiang Xuecheng.
It was as if this man’s name had become her spiritual support for survival.
The truth was the same.
…
However, after an unknown period of time, no one brought Su Wan her food.
Su Wan was so hungry that her eyes were dizzy. As she could not count the passage of time, her heart became even more irritable.
Everything in her mind was chaotic.
Only the name of Jiang Xuecheng was so clear, one sound after another.
It seemed to have become some kind of obsession.
Xuecheng… Xuecheng…
Just as Su Wan was muttering subconsciously, she suddenly saw an extremely faint light!
That was…
That was light!
Su Wan, who had not seen light for a long time, almost jumped up when she saw that faint light.
However, she could not jump up because she was too hungry and did not have the strength to move around.
In her absent-minded vision, a tall figure jumped in.
However, just when that person was close to her, Su Wan used her last bit of strength and tightly hugged the other person’s leg!
