Chapter 113 Colorless
Gao Yu opened his eyes again and heard himself saying to the person in front of him in a very urgent voice, "Sir, I beg you!"
He was used to being in a superior position, and it had been many years since he spoke to anyone in such a respectful, humble, and somewhat flattering tone.
No, it should be said that his attitude towards someone must have been an unforgettable memory for him, but now Gao Yu couldn't remember it at all...
Moreover, Gao Yu could feel that the inner emotions of "himself" at this moment were strangely synchronized with his past "self".
I can completely see what my past self saw, and I can also completely feel the inner emotions of that "self" now. "I" is very afraid - not of the person in front of me, but of the whole world.
He wanted to see clearly who "he" was talking to, but Gao Yu at this time obviously respected the person in front of him very much. From the beginning to the end, "he" had always kept his head down and his body tense, like a subordinate.
"You have to think carefully. Once I take away your ability, you will become an ordinary person again and will no longer be able to stay here." The other party's voice was very cold and flat, and people could not feel any emotion.
But the voice of "myself" was urgent, "I have thought it through clearly, Master Mushoku. I no longer want to be a psychic!"
Gao Yu frowned after listening to what "himself" said. This was not right. He had always cherished his special ability and had never had such thoughts.
Moreover, what about "myself" saying that he doesn't want to be a mutant?
After awakening, a psychic enters a period of aging and gradually loses their supernatural powers. They can't simply abandon their psychic identity by saying they don't want to. Their supernatural powers are like a part of their body.
Only then did "myself" carefully raise his head and look at the man in front of him wearing a white mask - Wu Se.
Gao Yu suddenly realized that Wu Se was a man, and that he had met him before. Their relationship might not be close, but at least it was not too unfamiliar.
At the same time, he had an even weirder and more absurd feeling, because in his original memory, although he had been a member of the Chameleon, he was not in the core circle, and of course he had never had such a close contact with the leader.
He had always regarded Wu Se as a dangerous and mysterious criminal with supernatural powers, but now, that "self" was clearly looking at Wu Se with admiration and respect.
Everything seems wrong, yet everything seems real...
The contrast between the two contradictory feelings made Gao Yu feel extremely torn. At the same time, he was even more eager to know the truth that seemed inexplicable but seemed to have been forgotten by him.
At this time, Wu Se, wearing a white mask, spoke again, "Is it because of Lina's death? We are experiencing a war, and sacrifice is inevitable. Regarding Lina, I am very sorry."
Lina...Death
This is impossible!
Gao Yu immediately rejected Wu Se's words in his heart, but the "self" in his memory was filled with infinite sadness and despair because of Wu Se's words. This sudden outpouring of grief was suffocating.
Gao Yu realized that in this memory, Lina was indeed dead.
But Lina is Gao Yu's wife, and he and Lina still kissed and smiled goodbye to each other before going to work this morning.
So, his wife, Lina, still exists.
But the "self" in his memory was sobbing desperately because of the death of his lover. "Wuwu... Lord Mushiki, this war is too cruel. People with special abilities have done nothing wrong! We cannot choose our own identities. We were born into this world by ordinary people and have special abilities. We are just a group of pitiful people who have been cursed and abandoned by this world."
"Their weapons completely suppress everyone's superpowers. There's no way those with superpowers can win this war..."
"I" am feeling extremely pessimistic and am convinced that this war will be lost.
But in fact, Gao Yu, who became one of the managers of the superhero headquarters, knew very well that in the war between the superpowers and ordinary humans, the final winner would be the superpowers.
Even though he knew it was him, Gao Yu couldn't bring himself to understand the situation. It was clear that the psychic was the ultimate winner. That's why there were Super Hero Headquarters and professional heroes.
What exactly is the problem?
He felt that things were somewhat beyond his control and cognition, but this memory obviously had not stopped.
Amidst his own disastrous and awkward performance, Wu Se's voice remained calm. "If you feel that your special ability is a curse and a burden, and you're willing to give it to me, that's fine."
No!
Gao Yu's first reaction was to refuse.
But "I" seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, slightly relaxing my tense nerves, and then said, "Thank you, Master Mu Se. I know you also have the ability to take away other people's memories. Please, let me forget Lina and everything related to super powers.
I... am a coward who only knows how to escape. I want to be an ordinary person and live a normal life."
Wu Se shook his head slightly and said something that neither "himself" at that time nor Gao Yu now could understand.
"Don't blame yourself. I may fail this time, but I will have another chance to try again. Next time, I will make some adjustments, so that you and her can at least have a happy ending."
But "I" was in sadness and panic, and did not seriously think about Wu Se's words. I just wanted to escape from the Chameleon Organization and abandon my identity as a mutant.
Wu Se extended his hand to himself. "If you have made up your mind, hold my hand."
Gao Yu and "himself" both stared at the pale, slender hand in a trance. Finally, Gao Yu heard "himself"'s voice: "Thank you, Master Mu Se. I really appreciate everything you've done for us. Although this may seem unreasonable, can you please let me see what you look like at the end, even if I'll forget it in a moment?"
Wu Se nodded and said, "You are a good partner, but it's a pity that you are still too young. I have been wearing a mask because I am worried that if you are caught, you will suffer more cruel torture because of me. Now, it doesn't matter."
After saying that, Wu Se slowly took off his mask, and Gao Yu also held Wu Se's hand.
At this moment, no matter which Gao Yu was, they opened their eyes wide, trying to see clearly the colorless face under the mask.
He saw it!
The memory recollection ends here.
