Chapter 1245: Chapter 491: Vastly Different Temperant Chapter 1245: Chapter 491: Vastly Different Temperant With the interference of that special setting gone, Lu Pingping finally gained full control of her mind, and her mories also began to slowly return. She was about to discover a piece of mory she had unintentionally overlooked years ago. However, she kept her emotions restrained and didn’t imdiately make a fuss about it, deciding instead to rely on herself to uncover the truth.
Yang Qi said, “Lu Pingping, the first ti I saw Wen Rou, I felt that she was very strange, definitely not soone on our side.”
Lu Pingping was startled and asked, “Why would you say that?”
Yang Qi recalled, “I can’t quite explain why, but I felt that she was a loner, with a style very different from ours, unlikely to truly be with us. I even advised Yan Fei not to be with Wen Rou, but Yan Fei wouldn’t listen to at all…”
Lu Pingping asked curiously, “Yang Qi, don’t you only believe in things deduced through logical reasoning? How can you trust an inexplicable feeling?”
Yang Qi said, “I’ve never believed in human emotions because they lack any logic. But for so reason, when I saw Wen Rou, I suddenly found myself harboring doubts about her. To investigate Wen Rou’s background, I even used a lie detector on her but found nothing abnormal about Wen Rou.”
Previously, Yang Qi had enticed Wen Rou to participate in a lie detector test using a special dicine for treating the Ebola Virus, and the results revealed no issues. However, due to so inexplicable reasons at the ti, Yan Fei had not told Lu Pingping about this, so she was utterly unaware that Wen Rou had undergone a lie detector test.
Lu Pingping said, “Yang Qi, do you suspect Wen Rou? Does Yan Fei know?”
Yang Qi said, “I haven’t directly told Yan Fei, but I believe he should be aware of it. Yan Fei’s unconditional trust in Wen Rou seed odd to . Coupled with the fact that your mories might have been altered, I suspect Yan Fei’s mories aren’t intact either, that both of your mories have been tampered with. The loss of so key mories could be why you’ve been so stubborn in dealing with certain matters.”
Lu Pingping felt fragnts of mories that never caught her attention before flashing through her mind and asked, “Yang Qi, you’ve always suspected Wen Rou, so did you find anything dubious about her?”
Yang Qi shook his head and said, “No, I haven’t found any suspicious points.”
After discussing the existence of a behind-the-scenes mastermind with Yan Fei, Lu Pingping had already begun to suspect Wen Rou. However, she believed Wen Rou was likely a pawn placed by this mastermind to guide Yan Fei’s decisions because, after all, Wen Rou had already been killed by an Arican bomb; thus, she couldn’t possibly be the mastermind. For Wen Rou to beco the mastermind’s pawn, Lu Pingping, who was originally the closest to Yan Fei, would be the biggest obstacle. If all of this was done by the mastermind to achieve so unspeakable goal, then the alteration of hers and Yan Fei’s mories must have been their doing.
The thought that her mories had been altered without her realizing sent chills down Lu Pingping’s spine. She then reflected on how she knew about the way Yan Fei and Wen Rou had t and found it filled with coincidences and incredulities.
First, Yan Fei fell in love with Wen Rou in a rather unbelievable way, because he had never anticipated a scene recurring in his dreams before, but Yan Fei nevertheless encountered it and consequently t and fell for her. Second, Old Man Gu, who appeared alongside Wen Rou, has been confird as the mastermind behind the scenes. Old Man Gu must have been the one orchestrating the eting between Wen Rou and Yan Fei. If Old Man Gu has issues, then Wen Rou must have them too.
Lu Pingping had been sowhat confused about why Yan Fei suddenly took a liking to Wen Rou, but after discovering that her own mory had been tampered with, she began to understand. Yan Fei’s mory had also been compromised; soone had altered it and artificially inserted parts about Wen Rou, which is why Yan Fei developed feelings for her. Judging from Wen Rou’s behavior, she appeared unaware of this fact. Wen Rou’s mory had likely been tampered with as well—soone had added Yan Fei into her mory, which is why she fell for Yan Fei at first sight and was wholeheartedly devoted to him.
Utilizing Wen Rou to incite conflict between Dream Island and The United States of Arica and to trigger a war between both realms was probably the ultimate goal of that backstage mastermind. In the process, whether it was Lu Pingping, Wen Rou, or even Yan Fei himself, they were rely pawns, helplessly manipulated.
But that mastermind, who had ticulously planned everything for years and left no stone unturned, certainly wouldn’t have left any evidence. Yang Qi, observing everything from the perspective of an outsider, even though he sensed sothing was off, couldn’t pinpoint exactly what it was.
As Lu Pingping pondered how all this had co about, Yang Qi wore a puzzled expression and said, “Although I haven’t found anything suspicious about Wen Rou, I’ve detected an aura about her that is starkly different from our world. It’s as if she’s being rejected by our world. But this is just a feeling; I don’t have any evidence. Yet, I can’t shake the feeling that Yan Fei shouldn’t be with Wen Rou, because trouble is bound to arise if they stay together.”
Lu Pingping, confused, said, “I et with Wen Rou often, but I haven’t noticed any abnormal aura. Are you sure you’re not seeing things?”
Yang Qi, troubled, said, “I don’t know why I have this feeling, because it appeared out of nowhere, not a result of logical reasoning. I hate this feeling because it’s utterly unscientific…”
Ever since the mind control device ca into play, Yang Qi’s thought patterns, once chaotic and disordered, slowly began to normalize. However, he still couldn’t grasp the concept of human emotions; despite his superior intellect that identified the problem between Yan Fei and Lu Pingping, he found himself unable to communicate fully with others once emotions were involved. Human emotions, to Yang Qi, were utterly incomprehensible. If it hadn’t been for so feelings he experienced tonight, Yang Qi wouldn’t have spoken these words to Lu Pingping.
Suddenly, a look of determination appeared in Lu Pingping’s eyes. She clenched her fist and said, “No matter who is scheming behind the scenes, I will uncover the truth. I can’t stand by and watch Yan Fei be manipulated and thrown into misery. He used to fiercely protect ; from now on, I must protect him.”
Determination also filled Yang Qi’s eyes as he said, “Through my interactions with Artificial Intelligence, I’ve learned every detail of this war with The United States of Arica, as well as the significant role that Yan Fei has played. I will continue to work hard, rapidly advancing Dream Island’s technological level, to produce more high-tech weapons for Yan Fei, enabling Dream Island to completely overtake the world in martial force, so Yan Fei won’t feel helpless due to a lack of strength.”
Looking at the figure sprawled across the desk in the distance, Lu Pingping and Yang Qi both expressed their own wishes. Then they turned and left, ready to exert their utmost effort to help Yan Fei defeat that formidable backstage mastermind…
