Chapter 133 The Foundation of the Memory Palace Shakes



Chien Chih-chen didn't go home to sleep tonight.

Qin Yubai's family has always kept a room for her.

She returned to her room from the study, her mind still blank, not knowing how it had started or how it had ended.

Her still-pounding heart reminded her of what she and Qin Yubai had just done.

Even with my eyes closed, I can still smell his scent all around me...

Just as she was letting her mind wander, Jian suddenly reminded her that Lin Yi was calling.

Jian Zhizhen immediately regained his composure and quickly answered the call.

As soon as the call connected, Lin Yi's apologetic tone came through: "I'm sorry, I've been quite busy lately and can't visit the two professors at your home. The production team is communicating with the censorship bureau... After all, there was almost a fatal incident on the show, so the censorship bureau needs to reassess our safety, and I'm in charge of this matter."

Jian Zhizhen quickly replied, "It's alright, it's alright. I'm going to do some charity work and spend time with the children at summer camp these days. I'll call you after I finish my charity work."

Lin Yi asked curiously, "What summer camp are you going to?"

Jian Zhizhen honestly replied, "I'll be at the Qingshan Summer Camp for a week. I'll prepare for another day tomorrow, and then I'll go the day after tomorrow."

"Qingshan Summer Camp?" Lin Yi's tone was somewhat delighted. "What a coincidence! I took Feifei there when I was little. It's nestled against the mountains and by the water, with a pristine environment. There's a farm at the foot of the mountain, which is the summer camp's base. Children can experience milking cows and watching chickens lay eggs there. Moreover, to cultivate children's hands-on skills, the summer camp only arranges two teachers per session to teach the children how to cook; they don't provide any chefs..."

When Jian Zhizhen heard that he and Lin Yunfei had been there, he felt a little depressed.

She's the one I really want to go to summer camp with.

Lin Yi, being at a distance and unaware of Jian Zhizhen's thoughts, continued to enthusiastically tell her everything about the Qingshan Summer Camp, hoping it would be of some help to her in her charity work.

After listening obediently to Lin Yi's words, Jian Zhizhen quietly replied, "It seems that this summer camp is really good. It's exactly as advertised, without any false advertising."

After she finished speaking, Lin Yi remained silent for a long time.

Jian Zhizhen gradually became a little nervous and quickly asked, "Director Lin, are you still there? Did I say something wrong?"

"No." Lin Yi's voice was as calm as ever, "I just suddenly thought of something else... By the way, regarding Zhai Qinghe's matter, it's all thanks to you and Qin Yubai for saving her, otherwise this program would have been completely beyond saving. I'll find you two another day and thank you properly."

Jian Zhizhen smiled and said, "Okay, let's make an appointment again when you're done with your work."

...

The Lin family.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yi stared at the screen with a serious expression.

The above is information about the Qingshan Summer Camp.

Jian Zhizhen was absolutely right; his memory was exactly the same as that in the promotional materials.

Even the details and the order are the same.

This gave rise to a nameless fear in his heart.

What a coincidence!

It was as if someone had deliberately implanted this memory into him based on the information...

Just then, the door to his study suddenly opened.

Lin Yunfei walked in carrying a bowl of noodles.

She had a smile on her face, but when she glanced at the information about the Qingshan Summer Camp on the screen in front of Lin Yi, Lin Yunfei's smile vanished, replaced by a strange panic.

Lin Yi noticed her coming in and turned to look at her.

Lin Yunfei immediately regained her composure and walked to his side: "Brother, are you hungry? I made you some noodles."

Lin Yi didn't have much of an appetite, but he didn't refuse and reached out to take it.

However, he didn't eat. Instead, he stared at Lin Yunfei and asked, "Feifei, do you remember when we went to the Qingshan Summer Camp when we were little?"

Lin Yunfei nodded: "I remember."

Lin Yi's eyes showed doubt: "How come our experience was exactly the same as the advertisement?"

Lin Yunfei seemed puzzled, smiled, and asked in return, "Isn't this normal? It proves that this summer camp has a good reputation. What the advertisement says is what it is in reality."

Lin Yi stared intently into her eyes: "But the details can't be exactly the same as the experience they described, right? Do you also think they're exactly the same?"

Just like a chef cooking, every customer has different tastes. What might be just the right amount of sweetness to a chef could be cloyingly sweet to someone else.

How could everything be exactly as they described?

Lin Yunfei subconsciously avoided Lin Yi's gaze: "I was too young at the time, so I don't really know, but it doesn't really matter, right? Maybe it really was just a coincidence?"

Lin Yi nodded silently: "Maybe I was overthinking it. You should go and rest. I'll finish your noodles and then I'll go rest too."

"Okay." Lin Yunfei nodded and turned to leave the study.

After she left, Lin Yi turned around and continued staring at the screen.

Some scholars have likened memory to a palace.

This palace is made up of everything one experiences in life.

But now, Lin Yi suddenly felt that there seemed to be a false outer wall surrounding his memory palace.

This memory seems to be similar to the phenomenon of "semantic saturation".

The more he thought about it, the more unfamiliar it seemed to him.

...

Lin Yunfei returned to her room and sat down in front of the computer, looking utterly dejected.

Actually, she was at the door just now and heard Lin Yi and Jian Zhizhen saying goodnight to each other with reluctance.

I wonder if it's an irresistible bond between these two siblings.

Even their casual conversation aroused Lin Yi's suspicion.

She was terrified that the longer Lin Yi spent with Jian Zhizhen, the more suspicious he would become.

This threat must be eliminated.
