Chapter 359 Back to Reality (10) - Recovering Memories
Seeing that a conclusion had been reached, the official decided not to wait any longer, lest things get complicated.
He pulled Si Zhong aside to make room for the guards, and waved his hand: "Arrest him."
Upon receiving the order, the surrounding guards swarmed forward, one of them holding a stun gun, and directly shocked Ning Shu with electric shocks.
"don't want!!"
Si Zhong pushed aside Si Chen and the guards who were intentionally or unintentionally blocking his way, and ran towards Ning Shu.
He slapped the person who attacked him away, but it was too late. Ning Shu was electrocuted and collapsed to the ground, convulsing.
Her body was in excruciating pain, but her brain was working at high speed, and those forgotten memories were gradually becoming clear.
She now knew where she was and finally understood why she had no memory after entering the game.
Because—she saw it all, she saw everything that shouldn't have been seen…
Unable to withstand the pain, Ning Shu finally fainted.
She seemed to have another dream—no, she knew those weren't dreams, but real memories.
On that breezy and pleasant day, she joined a hiking group to hike on a less-known mountain.
That mountain is called Guanxing Mountain. It's not particularly high in altitude, and I've heard that its environment is very beautiful. The reason it's not widely known is because its roads are particularly difficult to traverse.
The human and material resources required to develop this mountain are not worthwhile compared to the potential returns.
The locals prefer to spend money on the surrounding mountains rather than develop this mountain.
In addition, the scenery that can be seen from the Star Gazing Mountain can also be seen from the surrounding mountains, making this mountain less frequented by people.
There are always people in the world who like to take unconventional paths, and the hiking group that Ning Shu joined is one of them.
The group consisted of only 10 people. Ning Shu was not familiar with the other members of the group, so everyone followed the group leader and deputy group leader closely. Along the way, they saw many beautiful sights.
That night, they planned to spend the night on the mountain, mainly to stargaze, because the group leader had heard that an astronomical miracle would occur that night.
Each of them carried an insulated blanket up the mountain and wore a windproof coat.
To keep warm and avoid starting a wildfire, they lit a charcoal stove.
They would put the charcoal they carried on their backs into a makeshift charcoal stove to burn, and when the charcoal ran out, they would pick up dry branches from nearby to replace it.
Ten people huddled around a charcoal stove for warmth, covered with thermal blankets, and occasionally looked up at the sky.
The team leader, fearing he might miss an astronomical spectacle, set up a DSLR camera to record it.
Ning Shu suddenly needed to use the restroom, so she called a girl next to her to go with her.
This is a rule for hiking in the wild: you can't go alone, whether you need to urinate or defecate; you need someone to accompany you in case of an accident and no one knows.
When the two returned, they found no one around the charcoal stove. Feeling uneasy, they went to look for their fellow travelers.
Instead of finding his fellow travelers, Ning Shu discovered a strangely shaped aircraft. At first, he thought he had stumbled into a military research base.
But when I saw "a person" appear, I thought I was seeing things.
It was a strange-looking creature; if I had to describe it, it would be like an octopus.
To be precise, it's a six-armed fish. It "stands" on four tentacles and "hands" on two other tentacles. Its head is semi-transparent, and the internal organs are clearly visible.
Ning Shu felt a little disgusted at first glance, and then she was scared. Instinctively, she grabbed the hand of the girl she was with and ran away.
In a panic, all I could think about was what I had just seen. Was the other side a biological weapon being researched by some country or an alien species?
She soon found out the answer, because they had been arrested!
She was taken by the small aircraft to a larger, hidden spaceship.
Inside, she saw two or three fellow travelers lying on a table that resembled an operating room. They had been gutted by the six-clawed fish, and their skulls had even been cut open.
Fear made her start to tremble, and the girl next to her screamed.
One of the six-armed fish seemed annoyed by the girl's noise, raised one claw and pointed at the screaming girl, who was then dragged away.
She, on the other hand, was pressed onto another strange instrument.
She was restrained and saw a needle extend from the instrument and pierce her arm. Gradually, she began to feel dizzy.
Then she felt another needle pierce her skull, and then she felt herself start recalling everything from her past.
Some details that I couldn't even remember flashed through my mind with unparalleled clarity at that moment.
She was still conscious and heard the six-armed fish next to her seemingly "speaking".
Ning Shu couldn't understand what the other person was saying. Soon, the needle was pulled out of her body.
She had a splitting headache and was then placed into a cramped cabin.
The front of the cabin was a piece of "glass," and with her eyes slightly open, she saw that she seemed to be lifted onto the aircraft that had just grabbed her.
The aircraft began to take off, and her consciousness gradually faded.
Before I completely lost consciousness, I felt as if the cabin had been violently impacted, and it was shaking and vibrating constantly.
Finally, everything went black before her eyes, and she knew nothing more.
Then she remembered everything that happened after she entered the game.
Those memories that Si Zhong had erased have all returned!
...
When Ning Shu woke up, she finally understood what she had been through recently.
It turns out that the incredibly clear memories she saw after leaving the game were probably from someone scanning her brain.
The reason she felt no resentment towards Si Zhong recently was entirely because he only kept their good memories from the game, and all the unpleasant parts had been deleted.
She now understood why she trusted Si Zhong so much; all the memories she had were of her sweet past with him.
They watched the sunset together, admired the stars together, and even did *that* under the open sky.
Without these memories, she wouldn't have trusted Si Zhong so much.
Who would have thought that someone you have a close relationship with would deceive you?
No wonder Si Zhong knew so much about her and Li Mengqi's plan; it turns out he had searched her memories and was using them to deceive himself.
She finally believed everything Li Dong said, and their conversation from that day resurfaced in her mind.
Do you want to know the whole truth about this place?
"……think."
“You lived more than a hundred years ago, so you are practically an ancestor of our generation.”
What? !
Ning Shu didn't believe it after hearing it; it was utter nonsense.
Perhaps Ning Shu's expression was too straightforward, and Li Dong knew she didn't believe him, so he began to explain the past in detail.
One day more than a hundred years ago, a group of unknown aliens silently appeared in various hidden places on Earth and began to inexplicably capture people.
Fortunately, it was discovered by some astute scientists.
The military immediately launched a counterattack, shooting down several small aircraft with long-range attacks, but still could not find their mothership.
War was imminent, and soon the alien mothership appeared, and the two sides began to fight.
