Chapter 3369: This is a dilemma since ancient times
Tang Yuan didn't expect to prompt him to find the mission goal at this time, and the content of this goal was a bit incomprehensible. He clearly played Lawrence, but he still had to rescue Lawrence. How to save it?
Through the content of the diary, Tang Yuan could somewhat feel that Lawrence's amnesia was not an ordinary disease, and perhaps related to other supernatural events. He once mentioned that something seemed to be occupying his body, "that thing" occupied his body, and his real consciousness did not know where he went.
Could it be that the "rescue Lawrence" here refers to letting Lawrence return to his body?
Wait, suddenly Tang Yuan had an idea.
He is not sure how he plays "playing Lawrence". Whether his soul is directly attached to Lawrence's body, or his own body is directly traveling over, but the system sets him as "Lawrence".
If it is the former, then will Lawrence’s words “what is occupied by the body” refer to Tang Yuan himself as a player?
Before all the truth is revealed, this possibility is possible. This further raises a question: is it because Tang Yuan was going to do a task and traveled over to cause Lawrence to "disappear", or is it because Lawrence was "disappeared", which attracted Tang Yuan to come to solve this problem?
If his own body travels directly over, it means that he will find the real Lawrence, both in the body and consciousness.
In either case, Lawrence's situation should be very bad, and Tang Yuan needs to find him.
Let's do a test first and test what the situation is.
Although the prosthetic body used by the deceased is infinitely close to the body of a living person, it is not really alive after all. Therefore, if you are injured and do not use any skills or props related to "healing", the wound will always exist and will not scab over time, and of course, it will not shed a lot of blood.
In order to avoid hurting Lawrence, after all, if you possess someone's body, you have the obligation to take good care of it and try not to break it. Tang Yuan only planned to cut a small hole that was irrelevant.
He found a piece of broken glass on the ground around him, then spread his left hand and stroked it hard.
No pain.
A hole appeared on the palm of your hand, but there was no bleeding. Generally speaking, this depth should make people feel a lot of blood flow out of your palm.
He continued to move towards Lawrence's house until he reached his destination, and he looked at his palm again.
No bleeding, no scabs.
【This is your own body.】
Then it is not a situation where you possess Lawrence's body.
[System tip: Lawrence's body has been recycled by the system, and you only need to focus on finding Lawrence's true consciousness now.]
It's rare, Tang Yuan was a little surprised that the system took the initiative to prompt.
Is it too difficult? It is explained to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings?
This made Tang Yuan feel much more relieved.
At this time, he had already arrived at Lawrence's home. As a university teacher, or three generations of his family have been university teachers, and his family has a very rich background.
This is a very traditional American single-family house with light green tiles arranged in a row with four triangle roofs, steep and oblique. The whole house is simple in lines, with a comfortable light red wall, and the porch is covered with roofs. There is also a small garden behind the house, but it should have been a long time since the weeds grow.
[Lawrence's Home: The house looks like a popular style in recent years, and it should look like a new house in recent years.]
Um……
Lawrence should have lived here alone, without a wife and children, and his father probably wouldn't live here either.
Tang Yuan took out the key and opened the door.
The living room is wide and open. Walking inside, you can find a staircase leading to the second floor. Generally speaking, this is a duplex two-story building with a loft.
Isn’t it lonely to live in such a big house alone?
The decorations at home are simple. Apart from daily necessities, there is almost nothing unnecessary. The only entertainment facility should be the TV in the living room.
[Lawrence is a person who doesn't like to spend time on "useless" things.]
Tang Yuan walked into the kitchen, flipped through the cabinets and refrigerators, and was empty except for a bag of cereal.
[Lawrence has no pursuit of life, and even the trash can is empty, and his life seems a bit boring.]
Tang Yuan agreed. This person was completely unattractive of what he had eaten and ate quite casually. He could enjoy various delicacies normally, but he lived like an ascetic.
There is nothing to see on the first floor, so Tang Yuan went up to the second floor.
[There is a bedroom and study on the second floor, and there are a lot of personal supplies. It is recommended to search carefully.]
Tang Yuan went to the bedroom first, just as he had left him with a stern and serious impression, the bedroom style was the same. Everything was meticulously placed in the cabinet, and the things on the table were neatly arranged. Of course, because he hadn't been home for a long time, there was a layer of dust on it.
He glanced at the ECHO eye and found no information, so he went to the study.
[The bookshelf has important information, please check it carefully.]
Lawrence's bookshelf is very large, filled with dense books, most of which are about economics.
Tang Yuan narrowed his eyes and observed that there was something on the edge of the second row that was obviously not a book.
[You have obtained information: Pisley Family History 2.]
This is a black book, open it.
"I wrote these words in the cabin of the ship home—most of the previous ones will be familiar to readers who often read science magazines. I will hand it all over to my son—the only family member who still trusts and supports me after I suffered from bizarre amnesia, and the one who is most likely to know what I have experienced—Professor Wingate Pisley of Miskatonick University. When I talk about that catastrophic night, he may be the only one in the world who will not laugh at me."
Tang Yuan touched his chin. He remembered that Lawrence had mentioned his family in his diary before. His grandfather had also encountered some mysticism-related matters and handed him over to his son. So the author of this passage should be Lawrence's grandfather?
He lowered his head and flipped.
Very similar.
This tells a bizarre thing, very similar to what Lawrence is facing now.
Lawrence's grandfather had had that strange amnesia and saw countless hallucinations, even "as if other consciousnesses were occupying his body."
But there is a little difference.
Lawrence only fell into a coma for more than a month before regaining his consciousness, although it happened again later.
His grandfather lost his consciousness for more than five years! After regaining consciousness, he never had this kind of amnesia again, but it was accompanied by bizarre and strange dreams all year round.
Is this a family genetic disease?
The black book records the author's situation from illness to awakening, and he also mentions what happened in the five years of his loss of consciousness - although most of it was told by others.
In the past five years, he has completely changed. Not only has he begun to learn English again and learn basic knowledge of life, but he has also begun to be interested in all aspects of a certain period of history. Whether it is science, art, language, or folk customs, he has also had some unexplainable abilities, and seems to be able to master those knowledge that is almost impossible to know.
However, when he mentioned these things beyond the knowledge of ordinary people to the people around him, he noticed that the audience showed extremely surprised expressions, and changed his words, these were just jokes made up.
Compared to Lawrence's one-sided experience, his grandfather's record is obviously more comprehensive, and it seems that he can see the secret behind it.
The later stages of these words are basically the process of the author starting to find out where he truly realized the gap in the past five years.
But it was torn off and it was scribbled on the last page.
"This is just something imagined by a sick mentally ill patient, and it is all a lie."
It should have been written by Lawrence himself. He is a serious, old-fashioned and traditional person and does not believe in these strange things. It is probably because the content behind it is too shocking. In order to avoid being seen by others, he took the initiative to tear it off.
But Tang Yuan was a little angry, and the investigation was the most critical!
It ends up missing!
Dongdongdongdongdong-
At this time, a knocking sound came from the downstairs. Tang Yuan stuffed the book back into the bookshelf and looked out the window alertly.
From this angle you can see in front of the door.
The guest is an old man.
Chapter completed!
