I can't. It's just very bad and my suspension of disbelief is failing. I don't mind the Mc profiling being OP, but it's so disconnected from every other aspect of him. He can't speak, he is hard of hearing, he lost his sense of self to the point of calling himself "this bastard", but he still reads a shit ton of hard, theoretical books (no dictionary in sight, btw). If you manage to get cultured enough to be a professional profiler from reading only, you wouldn't be calling yourself "this bastard". If you can mute your feelings and opinions enough to make such "perfect" readings, you wouldn't be startled by your family's hug, you would've read them and concluded you are safe you would understand what a hug is, since you read so much. And how does he understand facial expressions when one of the main abuses was isolation? He was used for slave labor (btw, makes no sense to KIDNAP a kid for that, it's way easier to kidnap an adult or join the foster system and abuse it). Also, why was the doctor touching him???? Letting the parents in without proper socialization procedures? I don't need that to be shown, I know it'd slow too much, but in two panels you can portray time-lapse and that would've been enough and much better than showing him knowing when his parents would arrive (which made no sense BTW since the doctor likely leaves his room and goes to other patients and such, he never left his room, he can't hear, he doesn't know the hospital layout, he doesn't know where his parents are or how long it takes from there to his room or their ohy Sical condition to calculate how many steps per minute and how much ground each step covers) It's just… I don't want it to be realistic, I want it to be believable within it's own premise/world building. Apparently it is too much to hope for something to be plausible in the constraints it created for itself
