“That?” he asked with a smile.
“Are you an AI? Artificial intelligence? How can a normal human being be perfect in everything like you?” What was even more unbelievable was that such a perfect man was still single in his thirties!
This was so unreasonable!
I looked into his eyes,
“Are you perfect?”
“Are you serious?” Adenauer smiled from ear to ear:
“It is possible that he has too much filter on me, so he thinks that I am omnipotent. If he looks at it with a normal mind, he will find that I am no different from the people walking down the street.”
“Look, it’s your other advantage, modesty.” Thinking that this could be the last dinner with Adenauer, I tried to lay the groundwork.
The fun dinner hour was over. I began to wonder whether to tell her about Nick or confess everything to her first.
“Now, you can tell me about your friend.” Adenauer walked towards me with two cups of fresh coffee in his hands.
I drank my coffee, sat on the sofa, and introduced Nick’s current situation. Nick was gay, my undergraduate and graduate classmate, studying at Harvard, living with his famous professor boyfriend, likely experiencing LGBT discrimination from a peer on a new team and high-pressure academic environment.
After listening to my introduction, Adenauer crossed his legs and raised his head thoughtfully for a moment.
“What I am going to say next is mainly for reference.”
I nodded quickly.
Adenauer met my eyes and his expression changed from relaxed to serious,
“I think this friend of yours…”
“His name is Nick.”
“I think your friend Nick is hiding the truth.”
Nick didn’t suddenly realize he was g*y. Based on what you said, he has a lot of experience interacting with same-s*x people. Regarding the issue of discrimination, he should have had his own set of experiences and habits to deal with.” with that . ”
Adenauer’s analysis goes straight to the point.
But he didn’t seem to have encountered such a situation before at Columbia University. I haven’t heard him mention similar things.” I added .
“Did you find out you were g*y when you were a student? ” _
“No. It seems he figured it out in high school.”
” As a teenager, the awakening of sexual orientation is often accompanied by many internal and external pressures. You must be very sensitive inside. She has never met an unfriendly boy, which is relatively rare. By the way, when Nick mentioned that there was someone on the team discriminating against him, did he elaborate? ”
I thought about it and said:
“I remember a name was mentioned, but I forget what it is”. _
” Is there anything else ? ”
At this point, Adenauer had convinced me.
“If not for that, what is the truth you are trying to hide? From what I know of him, the pressure of the scientists
Research alone is unlikely to make it what it is now.
“I told her about some of Nick’s habits when he encountered stressful situations in academic work at Columbia University.
“Perhaps there is something wrong with the relationship? Adenauer suddenly raised a possibility.
I suddenly fell silent.
David Ford.
I had always admired David, a beaming Frankenstein, in the past. But since the unexpected auction four years ago, my opinion of him had changed a bit.
He and Aaron seemed to have an unclear past, something very unpleasant.
“If you’re worried about privacy, don’t worry. I’m professional ” . Adenauer suddenly said, interrupting my train of thought:
“Or you can use a pseudonym.”
He misunderstood me, but I didn’t explain,
“I was just wondering where to start”.
After thinking about it, I decided to tell the truth, including Nick’s bastard ex-boyfriend, Tim, and the fact that she had fallen in love with visiting professor David and moved in with him to Harvard.
Adenauer frowned and shook his head,
“That’s completely clueless. Can you give me some details ? ”
” Details ? ” I was lost in thought , ” When I FaceTimed Nick in the morning , I heard the sound of David coming back . Judging from his tones, it seems that his relationship is good. To be honest, this is the first time”. Nick had dated someone ten years older, I was a little worried at first. ”
Then I looked back at Adenauer and read the comments on his expression.
“Not much help, is it? ”
” Don’t worry . The person involved is not on the scene, and it will always take more effort to understand the root of the problem.” _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Don’t we think otherwise? ”
” That ? ”
” Describe what Nick was like in the past and what he is like now. Perhaps we can deduce the reasons for his possible changes from some things that match his symptoms”.
Well , I knew that too well . _
“Nick used to be a cheerful, fun, self-confident and independent person with a very strong desire to share. He is a sensitive man with a strong self-digestion capacity. But now he is closed and irritable, and he seems to be shy about doing things. The most important thing is that his desire to share has almost completely disappeared!
“The more I concluded, the more I worried.
If I had realized something was wrong with Nick earlier and asked him a few more questions when he was trying to hide it, would he have been more willing to trust me and Cinder?
At the time, I thought it would take him a bit of time to digest it on his own.
Speaking of which, is there such a big gap in the academic atmosphere between Harvard and Columbia University?
Due to high pressure from Professor Julian, we completed the project well, especially Nick. He once had a gap year and especially traveled around the world. His ability to adapt to the new environment is better than mine.”
Adenauer suddenly took my hand and said:
“Don’t worry. What your friend needs right now is a strong, rational version of you.”
I took a deep breath and regained my composure under his guidance.
‘According to what you just said, I have some thoughts on my mind. ” Adenauer said without haste:
“First of all, there may be some organic lesions in his brain, such as a physiological depression. This situation has nothing to do with his original personality. The second possibility is that he suddenly encountered a major change in his life. It generally refers to accidents involving relatives, friends or associates. Or he might have witnessed some exciting scenes. ”
“Is my departure considered one of them? ”
“Of course not,” Adenauer assured me, caressing my hand gently,
“I mean the accidents that trigger PTSD.”
I kept thinking about it, and it didn’t feel right,
“I saw the recent news from Nick’s family, and they are all very good. And his best friend is me ”.
Speaking of which, I suddenly grabbed my phone and opened Google.
” What are you looking for ? ”
