Chapter 4: The Past
The fat man's words made Lin Ziyue have to believe him, because he had no way to question what Fang Shiming said, yes, the purpose of his return this time was to take revenge, but no one knew about this matter except himself, including his sister, who had been secretly investigating the cause of his father's death in the past few years when he was dormant in college.
"For so many years, you have been looking for the truth of the year just like me, but do you know? The person you are going to go back to take revenge this time is just the person I guessed, because I still don't know who the real murderer is, who can make my father and second uncle's family have no time to escape, and if you are so ruthless and meticulous, this person must be extraordinary, and the person in your impression is actually just the object of my current suspicions."
If Lin Ziyue was still skeptical of Fang Shiming's words, then his next words made Lin Ziyue no longer have the slightest doubt
"When I was 6 years old, a sudden fire in the attic of the main Lin family made the Lin family and their second brother and family all buried in the fire, at that time, the entire Lin family's direct bloodline only went overseas to discuss business The Lin family's third husband and wife and the old man Lin escaped, and I was with my sister because of greed to run away to the back mountain and left my life, the world thought that we were buried in the fire together, for fear that people would know that the two of us were still alive, so we could only change our name and surname, and my appearance characteristics were too obvious, I had no choice but to let myself become like this”
Looking at Fang Shiming's resentful eyes, Lin Ziyue couldn't help but feel irritable in his heart, and at the same time full of sadness, at this moment he had agreed with everything Fang Shiming said, even if this matter was too outrageous, but everything he said was his own secret, his own personal experience, every time he woke up crying in a dream, it was because he recalled that he saw the attic fire but couldn't do anything, but he could only watch from afar, his sister cried unconscious, and he also carved that scene deeply in his mind, and he could never forget the indifferent people downstairs, no one went to put out the fire, so the whole attic turned into dust, until he lost consciousness in pain later
"And then, what happened next, why do I only remember the events before I was 6 years old and after I went to college, where were you in the lost ten years? Where did you go? What did you do to become like this? Why did you never see these images in your dreams?"
Fang Shiming looked at the anxious Lin Ziyue and quietly recalled
"When I woke up, I found that I was adopted by a farmer, their husband and wife were loving and harmonious, and regarded me as their own, even if they were poor, they never let me suffer the slightest, they were my only relatives in the next ten years, as for my sister, I have not been able to find her, I don't know who saved us at that time, and where she was taken, but over the years, I have never dared to reveal my identity, because I don't know whether the current Lin clan is the perpetrator of the murder! I've been controlling myself not to dream for more than ten years, because my dreams are always the scene of the burning of the attic, and I don't want to remember it anymore, so I isolate my dreams, but I don't know where I got this ability, so your experience is missing the memories of these years."
"So what's going on with this phone and the photos on it? Did you steal my phone three days ago? Now am I in your world or are you in my world?"
"I can't say it, but it's certain that you're out of my dream, otherwise, you can't know me, and besides, what I want to tell you is that your girlfriend Xiaoyu is the sister who was separated back then!"
"No way, I saw her on the first day of school three years ago, when she was bullied by a group of thugs, I beat those people away in the past, and then in the slow contact, we were attracted to each other, but she is not the same as my sister in my impression, she was so lively when she was a child..."
"Hey, don't you understand, what you have experienced is only what I imagined, maybe I wanted to protect her too much, and I actually let you meet like this in a dream, attracting each other, it is really unexpected!
"On the first day of school, I naturally attracted the attention of most people with my fat body, but it was a coincidence that Xiaoyu appeared at that time, she was wearing a white dress, the hem of her clothes rose and fell, her clothes were like snow, black as ink, her eyes were ethereal and silent, and she was as dusty as a fairy above the palace, which suddenly attracted more attention, and her slender body looked more and more cold under the protection of a group of black-clothed bodyguards, but I was sure that she was the little sister, and her appearance was exactly the same as her mother at that time, and then I investigated privately, she is now the nominal daughter of the patriarch of the Lin family, since she knew the whereabouts of her sisterI began to fantasize in my dreams that I was protecting her, which is the college experience you remember."
Fang Shiming paused and said: "But I found that she seemed to have forgotten what happened back then, but think about it, it is also possible for a four-year-old child to see such a scene, and it is possible to be too big and selectively forget, so I didn't deliberately contact her, firstly, because my body size is too obvious, for fear of causing her unnecessary trouble, and secondly, I don't want her to recall this memory, after all, these painful memories are borne by me alone, I just want her to live happily."
Lin Ziyue listened to everything Fang Shiming said quietly, he was speechless for a long time, he didn't know how to comfort him, and after a while, he seemed to have made up his mind
"I don't know why I'm here, and what kind of existence I am, since I'm your dream, everything you need to carry in the future, I will naturally face it with you, now the first thing I need to determine is, three days ago, did you appear at the train station, and was the person who hit me you?"
"It can't be me, I was still in school three days ago, I haven't been to the train station, and this mobile phone was indeed bought with the money I earned from my part-time job, not stolen"
"So what is going on, who is behind all this, what is going on with this group photo, who has the ability to connect the real world and the dream world, and how many people in this world are like me?"
"Does the person who bumped into you that day have any other characteristics other than the same appearance and body shape as me?
"He's as fat as you, if you have to say something different, you can't run fast"
"Ahh
"He was running so fast, and I was still wondering how the fat man could be so fast, even if it was me, I couldn't be so fast with a suitcase!
Lin Ziyue immediately pulled the suitcase and opened it to see that there was a mobile phone lying quietly inside, exactly the same as the mobile phone in Fang Shiming's hand!
