Evelyn shook her head:
"Regarding this child, Old Jin seems to have high hopes for him, but if you ask what Old Jin is really doing... I'm sorry, Albert, I can't guess either."
"I've actually thought about whether Old Jin has gone mad. After all... the way he looks now, it seems like he's dreading sothing. This isn't like him."
"Actually, once, when I was talking with Old Jin, I used my sequence power, trying to stir his emotions. Whether it worked, I don't know, since my thods don't seem to work well on you and Old Jin."
"But that ti, Old Jin did share many mories of when we all fought together. He actually misses those tis and feels guilty for not fighting alongside you."
Albert remained silent. Wasn't he the sa?
Evelyn continued:
"That day, Old Jin finally spoke a little more; he said he couldn't leave because he didn't want to die, and he was afraid soone would co to kill him."
"He also said that the bunker isn't absolutely safe, and perhaps soone from the Three-Tower World might co to kill him. I asked if he was sure about that?"
"He shook his head, unsure, but he had to act as if he was sure."
"He doesn't want to die, nor can he die; he also longs for a day when he can escape the current troubles."
The topic had been veered off, but Albert didn't mind. It seed he had gotten a clue.
"Does Old Jin think... that he's being targeted by an assassin? Soone from the Three-Tower Battlefield will kill him?"
Evelyn nodded:
"From what he said, that seems likely."
Albert turned to Wen Xishu:
"Kid, what do you think?"
Wen Xishu said:
"If we consider Mr. Jin's bizarre behavior as a puzzle, then the key to this puzzle lies in who exactly Xiaojin is?"
"Mr. Jin repeatedly asked you to create mories for Xiaojin, then delete them... you don't understand this behavior. But I feel it's like deepening the cover-up."
"First, I have to assu Mr. Jin is sane and that everything he does is aningful."
"So, creating mories for Xiaojin could be understood as shaping Xiaojin; maybe the original Xiaojin... wasn't friendly, honest, gentle, or kind."
"But creating new mories, deleting them, and then recreating them... maybe Mr. Jin believes this needs to be encrypted multiple tis."
Evelyn pondered:
"Go on."
Wen Xishu said:
"Two aspects; on one hand, it is creating so kind of fundantal color repeatedly, making Xiaojin a good person, deleting mories, perhaps cultivating Xiaojin's fundantal personality. Even if one day, Xiaojin loses his mories or regains all mories..."
"Then, because of many different trajectories of kind mories, he can balance the original evil mories."
"On the other hand, Mr. Jin believes that in the future, soone will be able to read Xiaojin's mories."
"So he creates layers of mories so that the person reading Xiaojin's mories can only see and retrieve kind mories."
"No matter what, what's hidden in Xiaojin's original mories is likely Xiaojin's identity and the reason behind Mr. Jin's sudden behavioral change."
"So if there's a way to read Xiaojin's original mories... all mysteries could be solved."
Albert was eager to figure this out.
But Evelyn expressed her helplessness:
"I can't do that."
Albert sighed:
"If you can't do it, then no one in the bunker can."
Wen Xishu said:
"Elder, can you awaken his fear?"
Evelyn thought for a mont:
"Perhaps I can try, in a specific environnt... my sequence power can indeed arouse certain emotions."
Wen Xishu said:
"If both of you think... this wouldn't be offending Mr. Jin, I do have thods to discover Xiaojin's mories."
"Last ti in the Great Vortex, Xiaojin experienced a deep-seated fear, so he might have recalled certain mories."
"Which then led to Xiaojin's mories being erased again by you."
"So I think maybe fear can induce Xiaojin to rember sothing."
"And in extre fear, I could know parts of Xiaojin's mories."
Evelyn and Albert exchanged glances, neither expecting Wen Xishu to have such a skill.
"Really?" Albert was sowhat excited.
Wen Xishu said:
"Of course, although this might harm Xiaojin, I'm also very curious... what's hidden in the bunker, what is Mr. Jin really hiding and fearing?"
Sotis, people get caught up in a predicant and don't trust their friends.
But it's clear Mr. Jin and the old principal were life-and-death companions, and Wen Xishu also believes that no matter how big the trouble, the old principal can solve it.
He is the elder who can fight against Leo in the future.
Albert is a person who acts as soon as he thinks of sothing.
Wen Xishu is the sa; both are the kind of people who deploy the launcher at the drop of a hat.
Albert said:
"Where is Xiaojin now? Let's scare him imdiately. Right now! I want to know what Old Jin has been through!"
Wen Xishu also cast a glance at Evelyn, indicating he was ready.
"I happen to have a facility at the Deceit Tower Academy, both of you know it well, and coincidentally... I can use this facility to simulate so scenarios."
"But what's simulated may not have the true effect."
"To ensure everything goes smoothly, if you can evoke his fear—I am confident to dig out Xiaojin's secret."
"We can act now."
Evelyn felt a sudden urge to support her forehead, these two—young and old—are really crazy.
But it so happened that—right now she actually knew Xiaojin's whereabouts.
