Chapter 216 The Non-Existent Person (3)
Chapter 216 The Non-Existent Person (3)
The next morning, at the Fiona house.
"Lost memories...that makes sense. As for the person who disappeared..."
Farusan, who had been translating ancient texts all night, had slightly dark circles under her eyes and looked thoughtful.
The girl picked up a cup of coffee from the tray that Tamimi had brought over and pushed it in front of Dixia and Dinazede. She then picked up a cup herself, took a small sip, and her brows furrowed slightly.
The letter Tamimi carried with her was vague, only mentioning a grant of unknown origin.
However, the lack of a signature did not pose a challenge for the senior, Farussan.
All it takes is for the disciplinary officer to investigate whether any suspicious individuals in the city have been inquiring about her address recently, and the mysterious mechanic who repaired Tamimi will naturally come to light.
Farusan sighed deeply, twirling her long, sky-blue hair with her fingers, a hint of frustration on her face.
But unexpectedly, things didn't seem to be that simple.
The mechanic named Abtuyi had no idea where the investment came from, and the other party never contacted him again after receiving the investment.
However, it wasn't entirely fruitless; the doubt stemmed from a study about the Red King's organization.
According to the mechanic, the study was sent along with the investment, but even Farusan seemed to only have a vague understanding of its profound theories and advanced thinking.
If this notebook had ever been published, it would surely have been a groundbreaking research achievement that caused a sensation in the Academy of Sciences, and it is impossible for it to remain so obscure.
Furthermore, the fact that the other party knows so much about him, even knowing Tamimi's location, means that...
A fierce glint appeared in Farusan's light green heterochromatic eyes. In her memory, Tamimi was someone she met by chance in the sandy plains near Aru Village after she was rescued by a passing caravan.
At that time, Tamimi's energy was almost exhausted, and no one but her could possibly know its location.
Unless, of course, her memory has become disordered, and she wasn't actually alone during that time.
That vaguely familiar travel companion who appeared in my dreams, perhaps, really did exist!
Thinking of this, Farusan suddenly felt uneasy. She felt a little scared, a little bitter, but mostly guilty.
But she doesn't remember him...
“Senior Farusan, this may seem incredible, but we share the same feelings as you.”
"I can feel that the person I've forgotten must be very important to me, and I have to remember him!"
Dina Zede's gaze was more determined than ever before; if she gave up this opportunity, she might regret it for the rest of her life.
For five years, he has been tirelessly appearing in her dreams, just to pull her out of her pain.
Although this differed significantly from her memory, she always trusted her intuition.
I will remember you, no matter what.
Desia sat silently to one side, clutching her greatsword, but her expression revealed her thoughts.
Although she couldn't recall ever having such a companion, there were still traces of him in her memory.
Also, is the man in black who never appeared again in Dad's memory also related to you?
She wanted to unravel these mysteries, ask everyone herself to find out the truth, and then at the very least, say thank you to that person.
Tamimi turned her head with a creaking sound and gently nudged Farusan's hand.
Although its not-so-intelligent little brain can't quite understand its owner's thoughts, as long as it provides support, that's enough.
It's a pity that Tamimi didn't have a language module installed, otherwise it wouldn't be entirely impossible for her to perform a short skit about how beautiful and intelligent Senior Farusan was.
The blue-haired girl took a deep breath, picked up the coffee on the table that had gone a little cold, and took a sip.
For the past five years, she has maintained a solitary lifestyle.
But only she knew that she was running away.
She tries to escape all connection with this world that she doesn't belong to, and she tries to escape the vague memory in her dreams.
A person stays in a small room filled with old photos, reminiscing about the past, and then wakes up to find themselves still all alone.
Now she no longer wanted to run away, if that travel companion had really existed, but had been left behind by her memories.
Even if it goes against the flow of time, she will find him, just as her family once crossed time to find her.
Senior Falushan's memories are not so easy to manipulate.
"So, regarding the current situation, I have some ideas, senior. Perhaps we can split up into two groups now."
"I'll leave the research on memory-related materials to you. I have some conjectures that I need to verify in the desert."
……
Several days later, in the Sumeru Desert, at the village of Aru.
"Senior Farusan, it's been a long time! The children in the village are all urging you to tell them a story."
At the entrance of Aru Village, a girl with heterochromatic eyes (gold and blue) and healthy wheat-colored skin, holding a round shield, entered the village with a smile, accompanied by a travel-worn and slightly tired Farusan.
It has indeed been a while since I've been back.
Farusan walked along the familiar dirt road in Aru Village, and couldn't help but smile as she watched the children peeking out from the houses by the roadside with starry eyes.
She recalled the days she spent reading storybooks to the little ones after returning from her investigation at Vitality House.
That was a rare and happy time, wasn't it?
However, she had other purposes this time.
"It's been so long without me realizing it... Candice, do you remember the first time we met?"
Candice was a little confused, because in her memory, Fiona was not someone who liked to reminisce about the past.
Senior Falushan... what's wrong with you today?
"Of course, the story of the genius predecessor who was trapped in the machine for a hundred years being unexpectedly rescued by the caravan is somewhat legendary."
Although she didn't understand, Candice smiled and gave a humorous answer.
This wasn't the answer she wanted. If that was the case, did even Candice's memory have problems?
On the surface, Farusan remained calm, but inwardly a sense of anxiety and unease began to rise.
This is bad; the trouble seems to be more complicated than she imagined.
For the rest of the journey, the blue-haired girl followed the new guardian's footsteps and strolled around Aru Village, but her attempts to subtly probe along the way did not seem to have the desired effect.
The more she was tested, the heavier faulge ...
In everyone's memory, she came to Aru Village alone with a caravan.
If that travel companion really exists, then it means that the entire memory of Aru Village has been altered.
No, it could even be... the entire Sumeru.
This idea sent chills down the girls' spines. If it were true, they would need to seek help from the Little Lucky Grass King.
The immediate priority is to verify their claims and find traces left by the "non-existent person".
Farusian's gaze shifted to a little girl watering a Sumeru rose by the roadside.
Perhaps she has found a breakthrough.
