Chapter 315: Selective Amnesia
Chapter 315
"Do you remember when we returned to the ancient town, we encountered a couple of policemen and a corpse?" Rocky said, and he sat down on a stone bench in the middle of the woods. "I didn't see the body, the police wouldn't show us the body in that case, and I certainly didn't need them to show me. However, it is impossible for a person to drown in a small river outside the ancient town. ”
"Except for murder or murder." Du Zhengyi whispered approvingly. He knows. At that time, he didn't tell Luo Qi in detail, he didn't want Luo Qi to act, he was used to acting alone, and he didn't have the habit of consulting with others, but he didn't expect Luo Qi to do it quietly by himself. This is a lesson, Roach taught him a lesson, and told him that if he does not consult with Roach in the future, he may become a passive party.
"And it must have been murdered at the hands of a mage, it's not a problem at all." Roach didn't notice his silence and continued.
"I know." "Now that I think about it, we shouldn't have been in town back then. ”
"They were seducing us, and the High Energy Crystals combined with the guidance of the Mind Mage, they did not directly interfere with our thoughts. They also know that they can't help you, and they can't move me, so they are very careful to just make us feel tired, give birth to our procrastination and laziness, and let our spirits relax. It's really clever to do that. As a result of the relaxation, we decided to stay in the ancient town for another night and wait until dawn. ”
Du Zheng nodded, "You just said that you care about the situation of the corpse?" ”
"I didn't see the body at that time, to be exact, I didn't see the body directly." Roach shook his legs, his feet touching everything in his shoes that couldn't be kicked off, and he looked a little like a broken child. "I saw the face in the consciousness of the police, the face of the corpse."
"The face of the corpse" Du Zhengyi is a smart person, almost a little transparent. "It's someone you know."
"Someone I should know."
I don't know why Luo Qi is such a rhetoric, Du Zhengyi has a doubt in his heart. But this doubt did not constitute a catalyst for any reasoning, and Roach said all sorts of strange things every day.
"I mean, I look familiar. But the dead look very different from when they were alive, and," Roach didn't continue, he bit his lip tightly, as if entangled in an inexplicable emotion.
"Who is she?" Du Zhengyi asked directly.
Roach shook his head slightly, "I don't remember, I just remember how I felt at the time, it should be a woman I care about, so my feelings are sad and shocked." ”
"Women?" Du Zhengyi said, "There aren't many women you can know, right?" What do you mean by not remembering? ”
"Oh, I remember it at the time. I was thinking of going to the morgue at night to make sure who the woman really was, and if it was the person I thought she was. Rocky said.
"So you went to the morgue?" Du Zhengyi was stunned and said, "Why didn't you ask me to go with you?" ”
Roach was stunned for a moment, for a while, until the broad fallen leaves from the tree hit his head, and he hesitated to continue, "This is the part I have been hesitating to tell you. I don't know why I didn't ask you to come along, I don't remember exactly. I don't know what I'm worried about at the time, I just have the impression that what I'm worried about is very justified, even if I had to choose it again. I think maybe it's because I think the ancient town will be in danger, if something happens, Mahjong and Xinyue won't be able to protect themselves, they need you more than me. ”
"Oh?" Du Zhengyi said, "Then can you think about it again, why are all the things you are saying now speculation, and you yourself can't remember what you did last night?" ”
"Because I really don't remember, I can barely remember everything about that woman." "I don't remember who she was, what she looked like, or how it related to us. ”
"Did the clownfish erase your memory?" Du Zhengyi asked worriedly.
"The one who erased my memory was myself." Roach whispered.
Du Zhengyi's eyes flashed with momentary surprise, but he understood in the blink of an eye. "The best way to hide one thing is to forget about it. It's a saying in the mage world. ”
"Yes, my parents used to say that." Roach said, looking up at the sky again in confusion, "I must be guarding against something, this must be a big deal." Judging by the circumstances, I didn't want anyone to find the woman's body, so I set fire to the morgue. ”
This time, Du Zhengyi was really taken aback, "You dare to do it." ”
"Because that woman's body, with the ink commonly used in the mage world, is full of secret words to awaken the ghost of the ancient town of the Society, and it is clearly written that the method of obtaining the control of the mind is written." Luo Qi looked at Du Zhengyi and said, "Whoever it is, it's SB who doesn't burn the body." ”
Du Zheng didn't speak for a full minute, and he was almost subconsciously thinking wildly. "This woman, she came to Guzhen for a purpose, and she also knew that she would be murdered."
"Yes." "At first I thought it was clownfish. But no, I met a clownfish who came one step later than me, and I had already lit a fire when he came. He asked me who the woman was, but I had forgotten all about her by then. ”
Roach grimaced in victory, "I knew that I would walk the rivers and lakes by myself, and there would be too many opportunities to be caught and beaten. They had to get a dime out of my pocket. ”
"He's the one who kicked you in the chest?" Du Zheng remembered the words that Luo Qi came back to shout last night.
Roach nodded, "He almost killed me." ”
"Then why didn't he kill you??" Du Zhengyi asked.
"You want me to be killed by him?" Roach said angrily, "Don't you have a long heart?" Isn't it obvious why he didn't kill me? None of this has anything to do with him! The person who did it to us was His Holiness Qionglin! He pulled the swagger to see Jonlin's joke. If he kills me, isn't that just a job for Qionglin? Do you think the Lotus Burner would do such a thing? ”
Du Zhengyi fell into deep thought, and only said after a moment, "If you don't see this woman's body, if there is no secret word on her body, we will only have a dead end in the ancient town last night." Mahjong knows some of the secret words, but he won't have the same high authority as you did yesterday, and he can command all the minds of the academy. ”
"I know." "I remember the emotion, and I knew she died for us. She knew we were there, she rushed to inform us, and she left us a message even after her death. Brother, do you know? I didn't really forget about her, there were just some triggers that I remembered when they happened. Someday I'll think of her, the one who killed her."
Roach didn't say any more, he stood up, "Brother, I'm dying of heat, I'm not suitable for living in the tropics, let's change places." me wrong, and still say that it rains like the tropics? ”
