Chapter 192: The Awakened
"The real murderer behind the scenes......"
Hearing An Xi's inference, Ye Yu pondered for a moment and slowly spoke.
"The reason why Lin Yutang suddenly showed Yuan Ling's personality must be inseparable from that 'devouring' organization, and doing things like memories can only be done through the Blood Keystone, and they also have this implementation condition ......\'devouring\' In this way, the real murderer behind the scenes is really the person in the 'devouring' organization? ”
"Yes." An Xi said calmly. "I think you should also realize that the entire headless female corpse case, including Lin Yutang's suicide case, has traces of 'devouring' participation, and they are probably the people behind all this."
"I did so much foreshadowing, just to get the 'Blood Key Bracelet'...... Is it? Ye Yu whispered, he felt that the whole incident was like a mess, and he couldn't help but have a headache.
"Wait, let me sort out my thoughts first." Ye Yu held his forehead and began to talk to himself.
"Judging from the timeline, first of all, Zhao Jie and others bullied Lin Yutang one day, and took a bullying video and uploaded it to the Internet. Subsequently, two days before Lin Yutang's suicide, the killer chased and killed Lin Yutang in the alley, but in the end he inexplicably let the other party go, and lost the memory of that experience, and Lin Yutang's personality also changed greatly after that day, I assume here that she was implanted with Yuan Ling's personality, that is, "devouring" implemented Yuan Ling's "second rebirth" plan on that day, and "host" chose Lin Yutang. ”
Ye Yu paused, looked up at An Xi, and after receiving the other party's affirmative gaze, he continued to analyze.
So, two days later, in order to erase Lin Yutang's identity, so that Yuan Ling could monopolize this body, he successfully directed a scene in which Lin Yutang jumped off the building and committed suicide, making the world think that Lin Yutang was dead; At the same time, the killer also began to carry out serial killings, intending to kill Zhao Jie and others who might have witnessed his true appearance, when he was about to attack the last survivor Chen Xin, he was arrested by Qi Yu, and during this period, Lin Yutang, who had been implanted with Yuan Ling's personality, played a key guiding role, and it can be said that she guided the police to track down the killer. ”
The clues like a mess gradually became clear in the sorting of thoughts, and Ye Yu's originally frowning brows slowly stretched.
"At that time, although Lin Yutang still had some of Lin himself's consciousness, his main body was still controlled by Yuan Ling's personality, which is why she hated me so much and wanted to kill me three times and twice. But on the other hand, since Lin's main body is dominated by Yuan Ling, then the previous act of guiding the police to hunt down the serial killer should also represent the will of \'devouring\', that is, \'devouring\' deliberately let us catch the killer who knew the whereabouts of the blood key, and its purpose must be to get the blood key bracelet through our hands, and then rob it. ”
"Your analysis is good, but I'd say that their plan isn't just that, if they're just trying to guide us to catch the killer who knows the whereabouts of the Bloodkey Bracelet, so that we can borrow our hands to get the Bloodkey Bracelet, they won't have to go through so many circles." An Xi said.
"I think that snatching the 'Blood Key Bracelet' may be just one of their plans to 'devour' this time, and their other important plan is probably what you called Yuan Ling's 'second rebirth', that is, the evil plan of transplanting Yuan Ling's personality into another person's body."
"That...... Director An...... Actually, I only speculated about the transplantation of personality, and in fact, I also had doubts about this in my heart. ”
Hearing An Yu take his guess as an important conclusion, Ye Yu began to feel a little bottomless in his heart.
"As far as I know, the Blood Keystone theoretically has the magical effect of 'reading', 'writing' or even 'erasing' other people's memories, but 'personality' is a ...... How to put it, my understanding is that it is an individual's way of dealing with the outside world, which comes from the individual's way of thinking and past experiences, if only the individual's memory is modified, can it really change the person's "personality", so as to make it "another person" inside? ”
“……”
An Xi was silent and did not answer. She looked at Ye Yu quietly, there seemed to be some extremely complex emotions surging in the dark pupils, and Ye Yu, who was aware of this, was shocked, thinking that she had said something wrong, and suddenly panicked.
"Right...... Sorry, was my question too idiotic? You don't have to answer to ......"
"It's possible......"
Just as Ye Yu hurriedly explained, An Yu suddenly opened his mouth faintly.
"Transplanting Personality...... It's possible, I'm sure of that. An Yu finally looked away from Ye Yu's face, and the unknown mood fluctuations in his eyes returned to his usual calmness.
"As you just said, a person's 'personality'...... In other words, "consciousness" actually comes from an individual's way of thinking and past experiences, and the cultivation of a person's way of thinking is inseparable from his education and growth process, and the embodiment of these things in the brain is "memory". Therefore, theoretically speaking, modifying memory, especially the memory of important events in the course of an individual's growth, will indeed have an impact on the person's "personality", and if the memory of another person replaces the original memory of the "host", it is also replacing the "personality" of another person, but ......"
An Xi said, and suddenly the conversation changed.
"However, if you want to completely transplant the 'personality' of others and replace the original 'ontological personality', you must first completely empty the memory of the original 'host', leaving no trace of consciousness, but this can't be done, even if you can't do it with the Blood Keystone."
"Can't even ...... the Bloodkeystone?"
"Yes, regardless of the great side effects of using the Blood Keystone, for the human brain, its complexity is not fully recognized by people until now, not to mention that if the memory signal in it is completely emptied, the Blood Keystone can only erase part of the memory at most, and the remaining memories and consciousness in the brain will gradually merge into the transplanted 'new memory', thus producing a 'new personality'."
"'New personality'? In other words, even if the transplanted "personality" is still affected by the "host" proprioceptive memory, it is no longer the personality before the transplantation? Ye Yu was surprised.
"Yes." An Xi sighed softly. "Unless, the 'host' is a newborn baby with no memory, or a ......"
Halfway through his words, An Xi suddenly stopped.
"Or what?" Ye Yu was a little inexplicable.
"No, it's nothing......" An Xi lowered her eyes and diverted the topic.
"All in all, it is theoretically feasible to replace the original 'host' personality with the 'personality' of another person through transplanted memories, but in fact, because the old memories cannot be completely erased, it is only a matter of time before the transplanted personality will gradually merge with the original personality and change. For Lin Yutang's case, I think that "devouring" is only a transplant of part of Yuan Ling's memory, so that Lin presents Yuan Ling's personality in the short term, and with the gradual integration of foreign memories and original memories, eventually Yuan Ling's personality will also be replaced by the "new personality" produced after fusion. ”
"What about this 'new personality'...... What will it look like? Ye Yu asked.
"No one knows." An Xi shook her head slightly. "Lin Yutang is likely to be insane because of his confused memory, and at that time, the original Lin Yutang's personality ...... There's no going back. ”
"What...... This ......" Hearing what An Yu said, Ye Yu's heart suddenly felt an indescribable discomfort. "Lin Yutang is innocent, she didn't do anything wrong...... It's so pitiful to disappear like this, is there really nothing that can save her? ”
"Method...... Yes, there is. An Yu looked at Ye Yu and suddenly spoke. And, only you can do it. ”
"Me??" Ye Yu was surprised. "Why ...... Me"
"Because you're the 'Destroyer.'" An Xi directly said the answer. "Only the Expulsor in this world can be immune to the side effects of the Blood Keystone, so as to maximize its effects, and ......"
An Yu stared at Ye Yu and said word by word.
"In addition, only the 'Expulsor' has the ability to erase the external amnestics that others have written, and at the same time restore the memories altered by the Bloodkeystone."
"What?? I...... How can I ......?! Ye Yu was so shocked by An Xi's words that he couldn't speak. I never knew ...... before."
"That's because your 'latent abilities' have just awakened, and your amazing recovery ability is one of them." An Yu looked at Ye Yu's surprised face and said.
"The ability of the 'Expulsor' is not just as simple as being immune to being read by the brain, its powerful ability after 'awakening' is also the object of coveting by all parties, before Lou Yue was to protect you, hoping to let you live an ordinary life, so that you can stay away from right and wrong, but now that your ability has been awakened, then many things are no longer something you can avoid, so I told you this, so that you can be mentally prepared in advance."
"What happened to me before...... It turned out that it was really all because of the awakening of the ability of the 'Expulsor'......" Ye Yu recalled the strange power that he had erupted and the terrifying physical recovery ability, and the puzzle that had puzzled him for a long time was finally solved.
"Then since I have the ability to remember Lin Yutang...... Personality restoration, so what to do? Ye Yu asked seriously.
"Memories tampered with with the Bloodkeystone also need to be recovered by the Bloodkeystone." An Xi said slowly, and took off a leather rope from his neck, only to see a small blood-red gem strung on it, exuding strange multicolored light.
"This Blood Keystone Earring is the only Blood Keystone in my hand at the moment." An Yu stood up and handed the pendant to Ye Yu.
"You can use this to save the girl, but at the same time...... You need to do one thing for me. (To be continued.) )
