Chen Yun looked directly at Ma En, who was deep in thought. The table between them was filled with familiar objects from Ma En's past, some of which she had painstakingly recovered in the past few days, but most of which she had always kept.

After a few minutes of silence, Ma En finally spoke:

"I still can't remember anything."

Chen Yun skillfully concealed her disappointment and said to her younger brother in a comforting tone:

"Don't worry, we have plenty of time."

Ma En also nodded:

"It's okay, I actually expected this."

In the past few days, they had tried every possible method they could think of, but all of them had sunk like stones into the sea without causing any ripples. Nothing except Chen Yun had caused him any emotional changes, let alone any memories.

But contrary to what he told Chen Yun, he didn't actually expect the result to be like this.

Ma En originally thought that meeting Chen Yun this time would definitely bring back some memories, after all, he could feel a slight difference just when he was talking to his sister on the phone, and there had been cases of "feeling something upon seeing a familiar scene" in the past.

He had recalled his cause of death in his former attending doctor's office. Ma En didn't think that Doctor Li held more weight in his heart than the things he had seen these days, and Chen Yun was the one who found these things.

During this time, Ma En also deeply realized how much Chen Yun knew about his past self, but this also meant that what he had come into contact with with her help was the most likely to trigger his memories.

Although he definitely had some things in the past that Chen Yun didn't know, if these couldn't cause any emotional fluctuations, Ma En doubted whether those past events could really help him.

Could it be that he only remembered Doctor Li's death in the office because he was lucky?

No, Ma En didn't believe in coincidences.

You must know that his telekinesis was still increasing his resistance to memory erasure at the moment. Logically speaking, the reason why he was able to recall it at that time was probably because of his gradually strengthening resistance to memory erasure. It should be easier to remember now.

The current situation reminded Ma En of another problem he had noticed on himself not long ago—the errors in his memory of Serri. This was a memory-level problem. Could it be that the person who created him intended to prevent him from regaining his memory?

Even if the person who created it didn't intend to do so, it might be that this incident incidentally affected his process of regaining his memory.

And if he thought in a worse direction, the fact that he couldn't regain his memory made the least likely of his guesses even more likely. Maybe this was the real warning or revenge left to him by the Unmemorizable.

And the worst thing was that he couldn't do anything about it now. Even if the instigator of this matter was really the Unmemorizable, he might have to pray that the other party would not take revenge on him again.

Because if he could leave the Victor Sanatorium, he would definitely be able to find a way to kill himself.

At least Ma En, who put himself in his shoes, felt that he could definitely do it. Even if the Unmemorizable could only affect other people's memories, he could still use other anomalous entities to cause enough AI analysis.

Fortunately, he should be safe as long as he doesn't go back.

Because the note left by his past self also seemed to imply that the Unmemorizable couldn't leave the sanatorium, or even if he could leave, he wouldn't really come after him. His past self felt that escaping from there was already safe.

All he had to do now was stay away from the sanatorium and the Southern Federation.

That's all.

Although he couldn't remember anything, coming back to see Chen Yun was still very helpful to him.

"It seems we can only use that method," Chen Yun said helplessly. "Starting tomorrow, I will start writing notes, writing down the things you and I encountered when we were together."

In the past few days, she had told Ma En all the things she thought were more meaningful, but these were just a few fragments of his life, far from being able to truly summarize Ma En's life, and unable to explain who he was.

Ma En said:

"Mainly before you were eighteen, right?"

She nodded:

"That's right, after that I went to participate in the work of the church, and I also had to live in the dormitory arranged by the church. That period was the time we spent the least time together before you were hospitalized. A little over a year later, we lived outside together.

"After that, although we didn't stay together all day like when we were children, at least we lived together. I still know more about what you usually do, but unfortunately you suffered from serious mental problems after that."

Ma En said:

"Did I encounter anything worth mentioning during that time?"

This period was also a blind spot that Chen Yun had deliberately bypassed these days. Ma En wanted to try one last time to see if he could remember anything.

Chen Yun thought for a while and said:

"You stabilized immediately after being hospitalized. Everything went smoothly after that.

"And soon the person in charge of you was replaced by Doctor Li, who was quite famous inside and outside the sanatorium at that time. In the earliest days, I often went to the hospital to see you, but later the church arranged some work for me that I couldn't leave, and then I started to communicate frequently with this Doctor Li."

Speaking of this, she paused, but still asked with a relatively natural expression:

"I heard that Doctor Li passed away not long before you were discharged from the hospital."

Ma En nodded:

"That was a tragic accident, but I had already lost my memory at that time."

Chen Yun nodded slightly and recalled:

"He was a very responsible and good doctor. At that time, he often discussed your affairs with me in detail. He said that after you were hospitalized, your condition continued to improve as you took your medicine on time, and then there was no special news for a long time."

He would of course be a responsible and good doctor, because he must have given him enough money in private.

"A long time?" Ma En asked.

Chen Yun said:

"That's right, but before you were discharged from the hospital, Doctor Li took the initiative to call me. He asked me some things about you, but they were all unimportant things, such as your former hobbies and habits. He had asked many of them before.

"At that time, he told me that he did this because you seemed to have some signs of old illnesses relapsing at that time. He said that you would mention some people you couldn't see at all, just like in the past, and this time it was even more serious than before.

"But then I never received any news from him again. Maybe you were already on the verge of losing your memory at that time."

Ma En nodded:

"Maybe that's the case, but I don't remember.

"It seems these are useless either."

But this shouldn't be the reason why Doctor Li did that, because he actually didn't have any problems at all. What he told Chen Yun should have been to reassure her, so the purpose of that last conversation must not have been to "cure the disease."

Judging from Doctor Li's notes, he might have wanted to do something not very wise at that time.

Chen Yun stood up:

"I'll go see if there's anything that can help you remember."

She pushed the door and walked out of the bedroom, and started rummaging in the living room.

Dong, dong, dong.

Someone knocked on the door.

He instinctively wanted to get up and rush out of the bedroom, but he restrained his impulse.

Ma En would almost reflexively want to run out because he didn't sense any mental presence outside, and after the impulse subsided, he realized who was outside. In that case, there was no need to reveal his anxiety.

"Hello, is this Ma En's home?" A familiar voice he had heard before came from outside the door.

"Who are you?" Chen Yun, who was standing behind the door, asked suspiciously.

"Ah, you must be Miss Chen Yun," the man outside the door said enthusiastically. "Mr. Ma En and I used to work together…"

"I don't think that can be called working together," Ma En walked into the living room and looked at the shadow standing in front of Chen Yun.

The shadow smiled:

"But that was one of the few satisfactory collaborations in my career. We both handled the things in our hands well.

"Didn't we?"

Ma En said to him:

"Let's talk inside."

He turned his voice to the side.

The shadow politely greeted Chen Yun, and then walked towards the bedroom that Ma En indicated. When he walked next to Ma En, his footsteps paused. After seeing that Ma En didn't intend to lead the way, he continued to walk over.

He understood Ma En's meaning.

The shadow pushed open the bedroom door, and then walked into a white reception room.

Ma En also followed in under Chen Yun's gaze, and then closed the door behind him.

He originally thought that behind the door would be the shadow's office, but inside it was actually a delicately decorated reception room, with various small ornaments exuding the atmosphere of life, and the tables and chairs were not standard office supplies.

Obviously this was not a very private place.

The shadow sat on the sofa and started fiddling with the coffee table:

"Would you like some tea?"

Ma En sat down opposite him:

"I thought you would be waiting for me there."

Last time the shadow mentioned to him that he wanted to find a chance to meet, but Ma En didn't expect him to come in person.

The shadow made tea for him:

"Actually, I didn't expect it either. I originally wanted to wait for a better opportunity to meet you, and the things I originally wanted to talk to you about haven't been sorted out yet, and they are not the main topic we are going to talk about today."

Ma En naturally asked:

"What did you originally want to ask me to do?"

The shadow didn't hide anything about this:

"Didn't we deal with that reality warper and the Son of the Sun together?

"Actually, it wouldn't take that long just to kill him, but I found some very interesting things in his mind. That Sun God is having evil plans that are enough to threaten the Federation's rule.

"And in that battle, you proved that you can defeat a reality warper of the same level. If other people who heard about this, they would have many explanations in their hearts, such as you actually only won a narrow victory, or Hong Yuan was actually very weak.

"But I was there at the time, so I know very well what kind of battle that was."

Ma En asked suspiciously:

"What does this have to do with me?"

Ma En meant why he should get involved in the Federation's affairs.

The shadow said:

"Good question, I haven't thought of the answer to this question yet.

"I originally wanted to come to you after I found the answer, but before that I encountered some other troubles, and then I immediately thought of you. This matter is more suitable for you than the Sun and what He wants to do."

The Sun and He?

This reminded Ma En of the "Double Gods" mentioned in the Divine Firmament Prophecy, but he didn't reveal his concern about this.

"This matter will help you?" Ma En asked curiously.

The shadow said:

"I think it's possible, and I didn't come empty-handed either."

Ma En asked:

"What's the matter?"

He pushed the teacup towards Ma En:

"We signed a truce agreement, which is the premise of everything.

"But you can imagine without me saying it, there will definitely be a very small number of Salvation Alliance members who are unwilling to stop there. According to the contract we signed, the Federation has the right to use violence against them. I believe you can also understand that this is a necessary sacrifice for peace.

"But in my opinion, they are all pitiful people who have been completely driven crazy by the Divine Firmament.

"So we don't actually intend to really kill them. Yes, what we want to do is different from what most people imagine. I originally wanted to use gentle methods to make them give up resistance, and even if they would rather die than surrender, I would only temporarily imprison them.

"I can do these things.

"But now there are some differences within the Federation regarding the handling of your former colleagues. Some Federal politicians want to capture them and use them as bargaining chips to force the Divine Firmament to make new concessions, after all, we can't attack other Salvation Alliance members now.

"And I want to ask you to stop them. I believe we don't want to see such a thing happen."

Ma En leaned his body forward slightly:

"What is the real situation?"

The shadow blinked, and then replied:

"Others have interfered with my work, and what they are doing is very unwise in my opinion.

"Actually, you may not be able to understand, but the purpose of us killing so many people is not to completely control the body and mind of the Divine Firmament. We just want to make her slightly more loyal to the Federation than before.

"For example, let her not be able to kill any high-ranking politicians, not do things that are detrimental to the Federation, and properly solve the Federation's enemies. Other than that, she is actually no different from before. As for why we only want so much…

"Of course, it is unrealistic to completely control her. There are many complicated factors involved, but it is actually enough for us. What we are doing now is actually grasping the degree of restraint on her.

"Most people's requirements are only up to the extent I just said, but the problem is that the process of dealing with her is bloody, and it will definitely form a feud with the Divine Firmament. Some politicians and power users have done more than others, and even I can't stand it anymore.

"So they are worried that they will be retaliated by the Divine Firmament.

"That's why some people are trying to put heavier chains on her, because they fear that the monster will reach out its claws to them after walking out of the cage."
