1. The protagonist Schatthorn sets foot on an uncharted continent that is as mysterious as a Shutter Island, and his adventure begins
As the sun sets, the storm in the Pacific Ocean intensifies, and the waves roll like a tidal wave to set off an extremely spectacular scene on the vast ocean. And on top of this passionate sea, a dilapidated boat is standing alone in the vastness, as if the whole world has forgotten it.
The hull of the ship shook under the onslaught of the waves, as if it would disintegrate and collapse at any moment.
There is only one lone figure on board, and he is Federal Agent Teddy Schatter (played by Leonardo DiCaprio). Schatthorn clasped the side of the ship tightly with both hands, and his gaze was firmly fixed on the coastline that was gradually moving away.
In his arms was a heavy dossier with a series of photographs and documents pinned to him in tacks, all of which contained detailed information about an extremely important criminal.
The criminal has never been seen in the public eye, and even his true identity is unknown. The only thing that is certain is that he is being held on an isolated island where there is a psychiatric hospital for felons, the Quehu Sanatorium.
As an experienced agent, Schattor was entrusted with the task of investigating this puzzling case. He must go deep into the heart of Shutter Island and personally visit the Quehu Courtyard to find traces of the criminal.
The task was fraught with danger and required extraordinary courage and determination on the part of Schattdecor on the show.
While Schatthard was engrossed in his thoughts, the boat was slowly heading to the shore. A well-dressed middle-aged man stood on the dock and bowed slightly. This man is none other than Christophe, the physician on duty at the Que Lake Sanatorium, who will lead Schattor into the heart of Shutter Island.
Schatthorne cautiously stepped off the boat and followed Christopher down a bumpy path. Surrounded by a shady forest, the pavement is paved with broken stone bricks, and the whole environment has a creepy atmosphere.
An inexplicable sense of dread creeps over him, but Schattdecor quickly puts it behind him, and the goal of his trip is to uncover the truth and solve all the mysteries.
2. Schatt's past pain, interpreting his innermost motives
However, fate is always so cruel and unforgiving, and likes to play tricks on people's hearts. During an anti-drug operation, Schattor and his partner Dunny were ambushed by criminals, and Dunny was shot and killed in order to protect Schatt.
Throughout the process, Schattor witnessed the death of his friend, which caused him unbearable psychological trauma.
A strong sense of persecution gradually developed in Mr. Schatt's heart, and he felt that his life was always under the shadow of being watched and evaluated. Sometimes, even in the middle of the night, poor Charter is disturbed by nightmares, fantasizing that Denny's bloody figure conveys some kind of message to him.
Over time, Schattor fell into a severe post-traumatic stress disorder, and he began to be deeply suspicious of everyone, which led to a significant decrease in productivity, and his colleagues noticed his abnormality, and the FBI finally decided to send Schattor to a psychiatric sanatorium in Lake Que for treatment.
There, expert doctors carried out an in-depth and detailed evaluation and psychological analysis of Schatthead. They were surprised to find that the trauma deep inside Schatthad was far greater than they had expected.
3. Schatthorn pursues clues on the island, but finds himself sinking deeper and deeper
"Welcome to Quehu Psychiatric Hospital, Dear Detective Schatt." Dr. Christopher greeted Schattdecor with a smile on his face, "We have done our best to assist in the investigation of the case of that important criminal, but no substantial progress has been made so far.
But rest assured, this is an extremely safe nursing home and your personal safety is fully assured.
Hearing Dr. Christopher's words, Schatt's face became solemn, and he always felt that there was some secret behind the doctor's words. In order to uncover the truth, he is determined to thoroughly unearth every secret of Shutter Island.
The first thing that aroused Schatt's suspicions was the group of "special patients" who were detained in the Quehu Hospital. Some of them were sentenced to death for their homicidal nature, while others had a special hobby of vivisection...... Whenever he thinks about the past of these criminals, Schattor feels creepy.
In order to confirm his suspicions, he began to contact the patients in the hospital privately, trying to obtain useful information from them.
At the same time, Schattor was secretly observing the movements of the medical staff. He noticed that some of them were suspicious and nervous all day, as if they were hiding something.
It was at this time that a young nurse named Nicole noticed Schatt's unusual behavior. She found the agent distraught and in a state of extreme excitement throughout the day, apparently secretly tracking a target.
Nicole is well aware of the tremendous effort that Schattor has put into her five-year treatment, and in order to prevent Schattdecor from being hurt further, she decides to reveal some of her core secrets, hoping that this will make him realize it.
"I can't hide it any longer, Agent Schatt! It is my duty to reveal to you some of the inside stories that require us to examine those past experiences with caution and the implications contained therein.
Nurse Nicole's words were like a hammer, striking hard into the depths of Chart's heart.
The doctors orchestrate a drama in which Schattor participates in a seemingly logical investigative mission as an "investigative agent", hoping to gradually lead him to face the shadows of his heart and reconstruct the perception of reality.
Schatt's heart is full of mixed emotions, and he can no longer distinguish the line between reality and illusion. He began to recall bitterly the source of today's situation: a few years ago, he was a high-profile young agent in the F.B.I., and his partner Denny was both a colleague and a friend.
However, fate always plays tricks on people, and Denny is tragically killed in an operation, and Chattchatt, who witnessed the death of his best friend, has since fallen into deep trauma and suffered from serious mental illness.
Eventually, he was put on the boat bound for Shutter Island and made to this isolated sanatorium. Here, doctors weave "alternate realities" for him, hoping to heal his tormented heart.
All the clues, all the hints, point to this amazing fact: Shutter Island and Que Lake Courtyard are actually just a healing environment created for Schattdecor Island! In this environment, he is given the status of "investigator", devoting himself to a "fictitious" but "reasonable" investigation.
In Chapter 5, The Cruel Truth, Schattor is in extreme shock.
Nicole's words were like a hammer, striking hard into the depths of Schatt's heart. It was as if his brain had been completely hollowed out at this moment, and everything that had once seemed taken for granted began to fall apart and then reassemble.
Looking back at what Schattor has seen and heard on Shutter Island over this period of time, every detail foreshadows this frightening truth.
What's even more terrifying is that Schatthard gradually realizes that there are ambiguities and contradictions in his words and actions towards the hospital personnel. Apparently, they also have reservations about the identity of the agent.
All the clues converged, all the signs gradually became clear, and finally pointed to the same terrifying truth - on this isolated island far away from the hustle and bustle, a magnificent "experiment" is quietly underway! In order to heal Schatt's tormented psychological wounds, the doctors have painstakingly woven a "fictional reality" and brought him into it.
"Identity of the Agent", "Important Criminal", "Shutter Island Internal Investigation", ...... These seemingly confusing words are actually part of the doctors' careful planning, in order to build a reasonable background environment, guide Schattdecor to devote himself to it, and gradually get rid of the shadow of his heart.
However, this cruel reality was like a bolt from the blue, and it plunged Schattdecor into unprecedented shock and confusion.
