Malcolm Koloway, wearing a vest and no tie, was standing at the coffee table, looking at a mahogany frame. He looks in his 30s, with curly hair, wise eyes, a little squint because of his long-term research work, and a charming, easy-going smile on his face.
"How much do you think such an exquisite frame is worth?" He put on his sweatshirt and sat on the sofa.
Anna sat down near Malcolm, smiled and said, "You talk like that Dr. Su when you are drunk."
Malcolm: "Anna, really. I'm serious."
Anna put her hands around Malcolm's arm. Turning to the frame: "I think it's worth at least two hundred dollars. Let me read the content."
"Am I really like Dr. Su?" Malcolm asked again.
Anna ignored Malcolm: "I would like to commend Malcolm Koloway for his outstanding achievements and contributions in the field of child psychology and his efforts to improve the quality of life of countless children and their families..."

And his continuous efforts to improve the quality of life of countless children and their families, the city is honored to award the son of Philadelphia, Marco Dr. M.

Suddenly, Anna stood motionless in front of the window, looking down at the ground with a look of surprise.
Malcolm walked to Anna and saw a few pieces of broken glass on the ground. The wind blew in from the dropped glass window, and the phone next to the window fell to the ground with a very small beep. He was shocked.
At this time, a dark shadow flashed behind them and quickly disappeared.

"There are no drugs or drugs here." Malcolm tried to persuade the stranger.

When Anna saw a stranger for the first time at this time, her face suddenly became pale.
The stranger saw Anna, staring at her squintly, as if to see her heart, crying and asking: "Do you know why people are afraid when they are alone? I know..."
Anna alertly: "What do you want?"
"I want him to promise me!" the stranger turned to Malcolm and called hysterically.
Anna: "God!"
Malcolm: "Do I know you?"
"Don't you know me, genius doctor? You don't remember your patient?..." The stranger's eyes were full of tears.
Malcolm seemed to have been beaten and was speechless for a moment.
Stranger: "...in the city clinic, single-parent family, may suffer from mood disorders."
Malcolm recalled.
Stranger: "...I was so scared at the time. You said I could not face the divorce of my parents. You were wrong."
Malcolm seemed to think of something.
"...Look at me now." The stranger was hysterical again: "I don't want to be scared anymore..."
Malcolm: "Let me think about it." The
stranger slammed the bathroom door frame hard: "I'll wait for you for ten years. Now! I won’t wait any longer!”
Malcolm: “Ban Fecken?”
Stranger: “Some people call me a freak.”
Malcolm: “Ryan Sumner?”
Tears from the stranger Falling on his face: "I am indeed a freak, look at me."
Malcolm seemed to be inspired: "Vincent?" For
a moment there was silence.
Malcolm: "Vincent Gray?"
Vincent Gray was already crying and his eyes blurred.
Malcolm sighed as if he had just come out of the deep water: "Of course I remember you. Quiet, smart, sympathetic, and very sympathetic."
"You have forgotten me and you will be cursed. You gave up on me." Vincent sobbed, and then bitterly: "You gave up on me!"
Malcolm whispered, "Vincent, I'm sorry I didn't Help you..." Malcolm got up from the bed.
Vincent lowered his head and turned and walked to the sink.
Vincent: "...I will try again. If you can give me another chance."
Vincent grabbed a pistol, shot Malcolm, and then shot himself in the head.
Malcolm fell onto the bed clutching his stomach. Anna's sharp cry cut through the night sky.
Malcolm: "Vincent..."
Anna: "Stop talking. Hush!"
