distortion…
A very familiar word, Bai Wu continued to read on. From the first article so far, it seems that Zhou Zeshui has some kind of mental illness
Part 2.
"Today, Xiao Yuan and I went to the amusement park together. I noticed that she was staring at a man. I followed her gaze but didn't see the man. But she must have been staring at a man."
"That damn man, and that damn voice in my head! It's telling me, fucking twisted, fucking coming!"
Part 3.
"Feng Yuan has been at home. It's raining heavily today, so she won't go anywhere. She will finally not meet the man, but I know that her phone must contain information about that man."
"I asked for her cell phone, but I couldn't find it. Maybe the other party was a client or a friend. Maybe they were communicating in some code! This pair of bastards! This pair of bastards!"
"The twist is coming! The fucking twist is coming again, that's all I can think of!"
Part 4.
"I shouldn't be so irritable. Today I realized that my wife loves me. This day is our wedding anniversary. We took Xiao Tong with us and went to many places and brought back many memories. This day was very happy. I love them and I am willing to protect them with my life."
"The distortion is coming, and I am getting more and more irritable. It seems like a prophecy, but it seems to have already come true."
Chapter 5.
Chapter 6.
Chapter 7…
They all tell stories of a warm and beautiful life.
It tells the story of Zhou Zeshui, his wife Feng Yuan, and their daughter Zhou Tongtong.
But Bai Wu could sense from the words that Zhou Zeshui was correcting himself. He wanted to fight against that distortion...
He wanted to make himself realize that his wife was not unfaithful and the child was his.
It was only in the fourteenth chapter that this confrontation finally failed.
"Bastard... She looked at me with such cold eyes. Is that the way she looks at her own father? She is not my child. She is the bastard born by Feng Yuan and someone else!"
"Feng Yuan worked overtime today, I called her and asked her! She didn't work overtime at all! She didn't work overtime at all! Damn bitch! I will find evidence! When I find evidence, I will make you regret it!"
In the seventeenth chapter, Zhou Zeshui actually found evidence and he had begun to secretly follow Feng Yuan.
Feng Yuan saw a doctor.
Zhou Zeshui saw with his own eyes that the doctor was kissing Feng Yuan.
The entire seventeenth chapter is full of vicious curses.
In the eighteenth chapter, Bai Wu saw the struggle again, and it was also the final struggle.
"I hope to reconcile with my wife. I realized that maybe it was because of the nightmares and the voices in my head that I was tormented recently that my wife felt scared. It was because of me that she came into contact with other men."
"Xiao Tong is my child, I know that, I shouldn't be twisted by anger!"
There were many consecutive articles full of insults against his wife and children. Bai Wu could feel that Zhou Zeshui really wanted to kill his wife and children.
But perhaps he really loves his wife and children, so he always restrains himself.
In the 22nd chapter, Bai Wu saw a scene that made Zhou Zeshui despair.
"The results of the paternity test came out... She is definitely not my daughter. I suddenly felt relieved. What on earth was I afraid of?"
"No, I have nothing to be afraid of anymore. My last concern is gone. Feng Yuan kissed that man... My daughter is not my daughter..."
"The voice in my dream told me... the distortion has arrived, and my life... is completely ruined."
Later on, it was about how Zhou Zeshui clearly wanted to kill his wife and daughter, but he just kept cursing and venting in his diary, but never took action.
There are two articles worth Bai Wu's attention:
"I can control everything. I can destroy everything. I am the distortion. The sky starts to be covered with debris."
This sentence is hidden in the twenty-ninth chapter.
This article is written very obscurely, as if indicating that Zhou Zeshui is undergoing some kind of change.
And in Chapter 31, there is an even more obscure sentence.
"There are more and more fragments. They are sticking together and covering most of the sky. I don't have much time left."
After reading all this, Bai Wu closed the diary and began to deduce in his mind.
Gu Qingyu said:
"How is it, do you have any clues?"
"Yes. But it's very strange."
Gu Qingyu was puzzled:
"How bizarre can it be?"
"Let me tell you something first."
"you say."
"Zhou Zeshui loves his wife and daughter very much."
"That doesn't make sense." Gu Qingyu questioned directly.
Bai Wu shook his head and said:
"What's written in the diary may not be true. Do you keep a diary? I don't write one anyway."
"I won't write either." Gu Qingyu thought for a moment and continued:
"But the emotions that come through the diary... I don't think they're fake."
"Captain, if someone slapped the boss lady one day, would you want to kill that person?"
"Of course I would! But I... probably wouldn't dare."
Bai Wu smiled:
"That's right. Zhou Zeshui may have these emotions, but the diary is just to vent his emotions."
"His diary shows two things: love for his wife and daughter, and hatred for them... But until the last entry... his love was stronger than his hatred."
"How to say?"
"Thoughts are not crimes, only actions constitute crimes, and Zhou Zeshui has no criminal behavior, not even until his death."
Gu Qingyu nodded. It made sense, but he soon felt sad again:
"My credit score is probably gone. Is there no turning point in this case?"
Bai Wu didn't say anything.
He always felt that he was just one step away from regaining his memory.
And this excitement... is hidden in this journal.
He opened the diary and photo album again.
After watching it once, I watched it again.
Gu Qingyu had never seen Bai Wu like this. In his memory, although Bai Wu was his good friend, he had gradually begun to act like a social elite.
He was actually very worried that one day even Bai Wu would dislike him.
Gu Qingyu was actually very happy today that her best friend was still willing to help out with her affairs.
But he also felt that today's white fog was very different from usual.
It's not just those strange names, like captain, boss lady and so on, but today's Bai Wu... has also changed in personality.
Bai Wu seemed to have found a breakthrough point:
"Zhou Zeshui saw Feng Yuan kissing another man with his own eyes, and saw the child's parent-child report."
"But he has such a bad temper, would he not tell his wife and daughter? And it doesn't make sense that such an important log was found so easily by you."
"Besides, why did Zhou Zeshui's wife and daughter leave here? If they really did let Zhou Zeshui down, they should have stayed here peacefully and lived a happy life with Lao Wang next door, right?"
Bai Wu looked at Gu Qingyu, who was stunned:
"What you said seems to make sense..."
"You have the contact information for Zhou Zeshui's wife and daughter, right?"
"Yes. After Zhou Zeshui died, they became the beneficiaries of the insurance."
"Contact them, I have a few questions for them." Bai Wu said decisively.
"Now?"
"Captain, don't put anything off. You are not a procrastinator."
"You called me captain again... That's weird."
Gu Qingyu still called Feng Yuan. As an underwriter, Feng Yuan also knew that the compensation after her husband's death had to be reviewed by this tall and thin man.
So Feng Yuan quickly answered the phone.
Bai Wu took the phone and said:
"Ms. Feng, I'm here to handle your husband's compensation."
"Do I know... what happened?" Feng Yuan's tone was a little weak.
"We have found some evidence that you are suspected of murder."
The person on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, then denied in panic:
"What are you talking about? How could I be suspected of murder?"
"You killed your husband. You had an affair with a doctor and your husband found out. Your daughter is not yours or your husband's. You have a strong motive for committing a crime. We cannot give you the compensation."
Gu Qingyu was stunned.
What is this? This is totally unrealistic. Why did Bai Wu say these things
Although the company hopes to start from this aspect, there is no evidence at all.
"You... How can you slander me! If you don't want to pay the compensation, then don't pay it! Why are you slandering me! There is no doctor at all! My husband and my daughter have never done a paternity test!"
"There's no use in quibbling." Bai Wu said coldly.
The woman said with a tearful tone:
"If you are not willing to pay the compensation, I don't want your money, but I have never betrayed my husband!"
"Then how do you explain this diary? When a man is about to die, can he still lie?" Bai Wu already had some answers in his mind.
Feng Yuan didn't explain too much:
"You can hand it over to the police. My daughter and I have nothing to fear!"
After saying this, Feng Yuan hung up the phone.
Although Bai Wu couldn't be completely sure, he was about 70% confident in his guess.
He finally found the most important element in the diary—what if Zhou Zeshui’s wife didn’t cheat on him
Does that mean... Zhou Zeshui's memory is fake? Then what is supporting Zhou Zeshui... He has such strong resentment, but he never takes action against his wife and daughter
Is it just love
The white fog suddenly cleared up, as if sunlight suddenly shone into the room. Everything that was originally chaotic was now clearly visible at this moment!
It was as if some truth had strongly stimulated Bai Wu... and reminded him of something.
"What's wrong with you?" Gu Qingyu looked at the white fog in confusion. He always felt that at this moment, the white fog seemed to have become different again.
Bai Wu looked around and said:
"Captain, regarding the claim that Zhou Zeshui's wife Feng Yuan cheated on him, did you confirm it through the log? Do you have any other evidence?"
"No..." Gu Qingyu shook his head and added:
"But no one would want to be cuckolded for no reason, Zhou Zeshui's diary."
"To be honest, I didn't want to believe it... but it seemed to convey Zhou Zeshui's resentment... I couldn't help but believe it. I believe that everything in the diary is true."
"It's true, but not the truth. The contents of the diary reflect Zhou Zeshui's memory, but memory can be deceiving."
When saying this, Bai Wu was like a person who was dreaming and realized that he was dreaming.
Often in this situation, it means that the dream is about to end.
Relying on Zhou Zeshui's diary, and the information and inferences he just got -
He is awake.
"It's such a vicious diary, but Zhou Zeshui never killed his wife. Do you think it's possible?"
"It's hard to imagine, but maybe he was looking for an opportunity? A perfect crime?"
"Maybe, but is it possible that Zhou Zeshui just has a problem with his memory and is caught between fighting against distorted memories and searching for real memories?"
Bai Wu knew that Gu Qingyu didn't understand, so he continued:
"He knew his memory was false. His wife loved him very much and she sought out a psychiatrist just to cure him. But his memory was distorted into a picture of his wife kissing someone."
"He has never done a paternity test, but in his distorted memory, he has taken his daughter to do a paternity test."
"In fact, all the hatred in the logs is because he saw false memories. Or rather, he did not see them, but his memories were modified."
"What do you mean?" Gu Qingyu suddenly panicked.
He had never seen Bai Wu like this before. What Bai Wu said today was so strange.
There are about thirty minutes left before Bai Wu arrives in this world four hours later.
But Bai Wu has already determined his situation through various feelings of disharmony... and through this diary.
"Zhou Zeshui and I are experiencing the same thing, but I am lucky enough not to be swallowed by the distortion. My reason can even help me overcome the distorted memory."
"Bai Wu...what's wrong with you?" Gu Qingyu looked frightened.
Bai Wu smiled gently:
"Have you ever thought, Captain, that you are actually a great hero, a true peerless hero, and not someone who is... a gentle person who has lost his edge like you are now."
"Perhaps in this world, no one is better than you in athletic talent. Your physical fitness is so strong that it can be said to be amazing."
"What are you talking about... And why do you always call me captain?" Gu Qingyu was actually a little angry.
Bai Wu sighed helplessly, and did not answer Gu Qingyu's question, but just said:
"This is not your fault, Captain, because you are just a memory, and I am the real one."
"Yan Jiu, who loves to laugh and laughs a little scary, Ruan Qingyun who despises the captain, Qin Zong, the bastard and incompetent rich second generation, Ming Che who is cuckolded, the tough Bai Xiaoyu, the cultured Lin Wurou, the shy Yan Zizai, and the good-for-nothing Gu Qingyu, are all fake."
"How could I be fake? Are you crazy?" Gu Qingyu became even more frightened.
Bai Wu said:
"According to idealism, you are real. When I came in, Zhou Zeshui had already created a distorted memory world. In this world, you do exist."
"But Captain, my journey ends here, and I have completely recalled my memory."
When Zhou Zeshui's wife told Bai Wu that she had not betrayed her husband and that her husband had not done a paternity test.
Combined with the fact that distortion is coming and distortion has already arrived, combined with my own experiences, combined with the fact that I always encounter people who are familiar yet strange, and extremely incompatible.
Bai Wu truly felt the confrontation between the two distortions, which came from the tamed distortion within himself.
And a force that comes from Zhou Zeshui, or rather, distorts Zhou Zeshui.
When Bai Wu realized from the diary that Zhou Zeshui was actually experiencing false memories, he also suddenly woke up during this process.
It was like falling infinitely in a dream, and under the strong stimulation... those distorted memories were retrieved.
"If I hadn't drunk the well water, I would have experienced distorted memories like Zhou Zeshui and turned into a monster. Now I remember everything.
"I am no match for him in the real world, but this is the world of memories... I should end it with him."
"What's the end?"
"Purify the distortion, absorb the distortion."
"I... I don't understand what you are talking about..."
Bai Wu thought about it and decided to talk to the captain. This was a habit, even if the person in front of him was not the real captain.
"Zhou Zeshui's diary made me realize that he and I share the same suffering. He was also troubled by distorted memories, but at that time he was more easily affected by the distortion."
"And because I have certain antibodies, or I have been affected once before, especially in the memory world, his real body was not there, so the effect was weakened a lot."
"I came here to find the memory left by a man named Jing San. I originally thought that this memory had nothing to do with me, but now it seems that the memory left by Jing San is a special scene that will vary from person to person."
Bai Wu said this and looked at Wu Jiu:
"Captain, you are a hero, you must remember this."
Wujiu didn't understand and just looked confused.
Bai Wu did not explain much and continued:
"Jing San is Zhou Zeshui. In the last few entries in his diary, he mentioned: 'There are more and more fragments. They are sticking together and covering most of the sky. I don't have much time left.'"
"As far as I know, the six Tic Tac Toe levels are all monsters wrapped in shells. This fragment is most likely the shell."
"I originally thought that these people were directly created, but it seems that... there is also a selection process? Zhou Zeshui must have some kind of qualification to withstand distortion, so he was chosen by the well."
"For them, once they are chosen, they transform from a human being... into an egg."
Gu Qingyu didn't understand what Bai Wu said at all and thought that Bai Wu was talking nonsense, but Bai Wu's expression didn't seem like...
"There are still some doubts here. I can't solve them now. I have to find Zhou Zeshui."
"He... Where is he? He's not dead?"
Although Bai Wu's words sounded strange, Gu Qingyu was still willing to believe Bai Wu and continued according to what Bai Wu said.
Bai Wu shook his head and said:
"That accident was Zhou Zeshui's farewell to this world. He went to the scene of the eucalyptus on purpose. Perhaps Zhou Zeshui knew that when he was completely wrapped in the 'shell', he would be separated from his wife and daughter forever."
"So he said that his time was running out and he was deliberately seeking death."
"The tanker truck explosion was an accident..."
"I'm afraid he can control a lot of things. Zhou Zeshui's diary also mentioned that—
'I control everything. I destroy everything. I am the distortion. The sky starts to become covered with debris.'"
"This content means that Zhou Zeshui has mutated. An accident cannot kill such a powerful being."
"Although Zhou Zeshui is very weak in this world, the real Zhou Zeshui is lying in a plane. His strength is at the level of destroying the world."
Bai Wu didn't care whether Gu Qingyu could understand or not. He knew that all this was nonsense to the tall and thin Gu Qingyu.
But it was like this many times. As soon as the captain opened his mouth, he would give an answer. It has always been like this and will be the same in the future.
"I... am I drunk? Bai Wu, am I actually still drinking with you at your house?"
"No, I have to go now, Captain. I hope you can be more heroic and tougher in the future. In my eyes, no matter which world the captain is from, he should be a hero."
The purpose of this trip is to explore Jingsan's memory. This exploration also allowed Bai Wu to make a major discovery.
Well Five is an absolute twisted polymer, immortal and indestructible. Theoretically, Wells One, Two, Four, and Six are also such.
Jing San is naturally the same.
He originally thought that what was hidden in his memory was the method of killing Jing, and now it seems that it is indeed the case.
It's just that this killing... is different from what I understand.
Bai Wu looked out the window and thought:
"They were humans first... and then they became well-level monsters. This information already contains a way to kill Jing. Xiao Yugan is a very key figure."
"Then why did Bai Yuan leave the dried fish behind... and go away alone? And... if this is used to deal with the Tic-Tac-Toe level method... this trap is too limited."
There is no physical way to kill a Tic-Tac-toe. Tic-Tac-toe monsters are immortal—but they were all human at first.
And the distortion starts with the memory, and eventually they go from being human to being Tic-Tac-Toe.
But Jingsan proved one thing—the dried fish could turn them from wells back into humans.
At least in memory.
Their bodies and even their souls have turned into some kind of twisted matter, but the power of memory can make them give up attacking humans and give up... looking for the tower.
Is this the core of Bai Yuan's plan? But as analyzed above, will the Tic-Tac-Toe-class be so obedient and all come to this ark
In addition, there is a big risk in this method of reversing memory to deal with the tic-tac-toe level -
After the memories of the tic-tac-toe-level monsters are exchanged, a source of pollution will be left behind.
The memory of the twister is also twisted, and can constantly corrode this memory world.
Bai Wu was very clear that he was now in the memory distorted by this pollution source.
The source of pollution is Zhou Zeshui’s memory.
Even if it is just a memory, it can cause great distortion to the world.
I'm afraid even a small dried fish... wouldn't be able to withstand two tic-tac-toe-level distorted memories, right
Many questions emerged in Bai Wu's mind.
Bai Wu could feel that Xiao Yu was very important in Bai Yuan's plan. If Xiao Yu could help Jingzi-ji return to human memory, Bai Yuan's chances of winning would have been quite high...
Why did he run away? Why did he leave the dried fish behind
And... Ark Project, why are there two arks
Bai Wu's hands began to tremble.
An amazing idea emerged from his mind. Especially at this moment, he had completely recovered his memory and the Eye of Prell began to become active.
I am dying of suffocation, I am dying of suffocation, oh, this twisted and terrible memory makes your other side, ah, makes my other side so boring and serious! Fortunately, you are not bad, and you soon realized the absurdity of this world.
You even realized something more important... But for now, we need to clear up the distortion.
A more important thing.
Bai Wu did realize it, and all the clues appeared in Bai Wu's mind at this moment -
Dried fish mentioned splitting, and the farmer used the split bodies of dried fish... to make high-level "cards", and the split bodies were exactly the same as the dried fish.
Ark owns two.
The first generation could clearly protect Xiao Yugan, but he let Xiao Yugan go back to the memory world and hide there.
The dried fish obviously had great value, but Bai Yuan suddenly abandoned it.
Then she thought about what Xiao Yugan told her, that she didn't remember a lot of things... Her memory was incoherent.
Bai Wu didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
"It turns out that the dried fish that waited for Bai Yuan for seven hundred years... wasn't really dried fish... but just a split body?"
"The real dried fish... is actually hidden somewhere else by Bai Yuan?"
