“Mr. Billy, I-I don't know what's happening. I feel dizzy. I need to go back and sleep," Bonnie spoke, her words slurred and fitting the typical reaction to hallucinogens.
Upon seeing this, Billy immediately instructed his subordinate, "Go, bring the hypnotist here."
"Yes," the subordinate acknowledged and hurried off to find the hypnotist.
Bonnie, pretending to be clueless, asked in a dazed tone, "What's a hypnotist? Can you eat it?" As she spoke, she began spinning in place.
"Where are we? It's so beautiful here. I love it, and there's a sea of flowers?" When he observed Bonnie's foolish behavior, Billy asked the subordinate closest to him, "Are you sure combining the hallucinogen with hypnosis won't have any side effects? Why is she suddenly acting so silly? Who will help me achieve my grand plans?"
Seeing a typically sharp person behaving so foolishly was hard for him to accept.
"Mr. Billy, we've looked into it. Combining these two things has no side effects. Mr. Barrett probably ingested too much of the drug at once, so he is experiencing a temporary about of foolishness," the subordinate explained to reassure Billy.
After hearing this, Billy's heart relaxed slightly. "Whatever happens, we can't damage Barrett's mind. His brain is the most important and helpful asset to me."
"I understand, Mr. Billy. The organization we bought the drugs from is a regular partner. They know what they're doing. You don't need to worry," the subordinate pacified.
Billy finally felt completely at ease. "Alright, next, we'll wait for the hypnotist to arrive and hypnotize Barrett, then begin questioning him."
Soon, another subordinate brought the hypnotist over.
