The Other Side 314

However, in all her calculations, she had not expected Natalia to be a secondary personality.1

"Do you think I'm lying to you?" Romanka leaned back in his chair with a brooding expression. "I know what you probably think of me. You must think that I'm an unreasonable, evil, dark scientist who specializes in using such vulnerable and helpless children for human experiments. Yes, Alice, to be honest with you, I do have my ambitions. Multiple personality disorder is still an unknown in this world. In fact, there are more than a few people in this world who suffer from multiple personalities. Our registered list doesn't include patients with multiple personalities all over the world. In other words, the patients we have now are just the tip of the iceberg. Alice, I'm so eager to conquer this field that I seem to be rushing things. It might seem malicious to you, but I don't think so! You don't have to imagine how evil I am. There's no need for that."

Even with Romanka's seemingly sincere tone, Alice was afraid to trust him completely. "If things are as you say, could it be then, that you created the personality of Natalia?"

"Yes."

"Then why did you create such a personality?" Alice was skeptical. "Is this what you call an experiment in personality society?"

"Not really. In fact, the medical community has always believed that a condition like multiple personalities is a naturally occurring condition. I, on the other hand, don't think that way. I think anyone could develop such a condition. That's why I chose Natalisa as my subject. Natalisa is a classic example of a depressed personality, so in order to treat that personality, I created Natalia, who is innocent, kind, and warm."

"I still find it hard to believe you!" This fact was just too far from what she knew. She couldn't believe Natalia was a secondary personality.

This would mean… Natalisa was the dominant personality that would never go away?

"Well, can you explain why Natalisa knows hypnosis?"

Romanka finally looked surprised when he heard this. He had not expected Alice to be so sharp as to be able to make this discovery. "How did you find out Natalisa knows hypnosis?"

"She's hypnotized Hua Jin and Youyou. I don't know the exact level of her hypnosis skill, but she's probably quite highly skilled in lucid hypnosis, right?!"

Romanka was stunned for a moment. He smiled suddenly, his eyes shining with admiration. "Indeed impressive, Alice. You're very observant. I did teach Natalisa hypnosis, because she had trouble sleeping. So, I taught her how to hypnotize people and, through hypnosis, control Natalia."

"So it's true. And is that done through that crystal ball?"

"That's right."

"How unexpected. How did you teach her, Romanka?"

"Actually, Natalisa's capability in hypnosis isn't all that impressive, although she's more than an amateur. Have you forgotten, Alice? I was once a hypnotist myself. It's a simple matter for me to teach someone hypnosis. The more emotionally delicate the personality, the easier it is to hypnotize, especially a personality like Natalia's. Learning hypnosis has nothing to do with age. Often the best in the field are young people."
