Wu Ming is now in trouble.
Encountering trouble is a normal thing for Wu Ming now. He was still an ordinary person in his life for more than 20 years until noon yesterday. After experiencing what happened yesterday, Wu Ming has completely changed from the ordinary person's life. Farewell.
You see, today’s trip to the shallow level of the Shadow Realm is just that. Wu Ming just took Zhao Sida and Elizabeth out to buy some daily necessities, and then he came to the shallow level of the Shadow Realm in a daze, and then he rescued them in a daze. A girl was not so confused until the end and built a portal to teleport back. Wu Ming suspected that from now on, he might be in various abnormal events and troubles every minute and every second, 24 hours a day.
However, Wu Ming feels that this kind of life is quite interesting.
Closer to home, the trouble Wu Ming is encountering now is somewhat different. It is about how to deal with Lin Jiaojiao's aftermath.
The contract was just signed yesterday, and it was only the first day of work today. Not to mention labor insurance, Lucky Ancient God Office had not even given Wu Ming an employee handbook, and this happened. Wu Ming, who was aware of Article 3, Article 1 of the Employee Code, did not know whether this situation could be considered as accidentally involving ordinary people in abnormal incidents due to work reasons.
Lin Jiaojiao was involved in the abnormal incident before she met them. Wu Ming just rescued her after she was involved in the abnormal incident. According to common sense, at least related memory erasure, It is a modification operation, but it is definitely not possible to directly delete Lin Jiaojiao's memory of more than forty minutes. She fainted in the shallow layer of the shadow world not ten minutes after leaving home. If all the memories of this period of time are deleted, , how should she make up a reason why she was still in front of the house after walking for more than 40 minutes to go to school? Lost for more than forty minutes outside your home? Only this devil would believe it!
Moreover, even if Wu Ming wanted to erase or modify Lin Jiaojiao's memory and repair her life trajectory, the former did not have the tools. Should he also take Lin Jiaojiao to the office?
Thinking of the director's memory erasure (physics), Wu Ming was a little worried about whether the girl could survive after being hit with that stick.
Seeing Wu Ming's somewhat uncertain expression, Lin Jiaojiao, who was usually keen on reading various light novels and comics, also had a more open mind. Although Wu Ming and the others did not identify themselves from the beginning to the end, they only said that they were passing by Kamen. Knights are such weird words, but the experiences just now made her realize that most of the people in front of her were not ordinary people, so she naturally thought of the common settings in many comics and novels.
It's probably time to clear the memory of the conventions in those works.
She asked with some anxiety: "Wu... Brother Wu Ming... are you thinking about how to let me look at the pen and erase my previous memories?"
Wu Ming didn't mean to hide it from her, and nodded calmly: "Yes, but don't worry. I don't have a memory eraser or a mace in my hand now. I can't modify the memory for the time being, so I'm thinking of a solution."
"Well... can I..." Lin Jiaojiao's voice became smaller and smaller: "Can I keep this memory? I... I won't tell anyone..."
Lin Jiaojiao also knew that this request was a bit excessive, but she still resisted... resisting having her memory manipulated.
It was true that what happened today was thrilling, but it was undeniable that personally experiencing such a supernatural and bizarre extraordinary event greatly satisfied her curiosity. She did not want to forget this experience today.
Due to the excessive consumption of connecting to the world, Elizabeth, who had been lying next to the corpse, finally recovered a little. Although she still retains her waist-length hair, Elizabeth's hair color and eyes have changed back to their original colors: "These Keeping scary and frightening memories will cause nightmares! So I think it’s better to delete them! After deleting them, you can remember more happy things!”
After saying that, she turned over and continued to lay on the body to recover her strength.
"But I..." Lin Jiaojiao seemed to still want to say something, but was interrupted by Zhao Sida.
"There are hundreds of event files in the database in which mortals came into contact with extraordinary things throughout the ages." Zhao Sida stared at Lin Jiaojiao closely, and said in her unique tone of voice that had no ups and downs of emotions and always maintained a calm tone: "According to the data records , in the incident of extraordinary contact, 50% of the people died without any body parts when they first came into contact with the extraordinary thing. Only 15% of those who survived actively chose to modify their memory. Due to various reasons, they were kept People who have poor memory or refuse to correct their memory will eventually be driven by curiosity to actively seek out and come into contact with extraordinary things.”
Zhao Sida seemed to have seen through Lin Jiaojiao's inner calculations and continued.
"And the final outcome of these people, in human terms, should be called a bad death. They all died. Some fell into the shadow world like you and were devoured by shadow monsters. Some were assimilated into extraordinary beings, leaving only the ability to think. Accessories, some are conscious and watching their bodies being torn apart bit by bit, and some are unaware of death in their sleep... So far, there are no exceptions for ordinary people who have left memories and continue to be related to extraordinary things. All died."
"The purpose of deleting these memories is to protect you, not us. If you still resist, then coercive measures will be taken."
Seeing Lin Jiaojiao's increasingly pale face, Wu Ming knew that what Zhao Sida said was a bit beyond her psychological endurance. Wu Ming patted her shoulder and comforted her: "Don't worry, you are relatively lucky. We are also professionals for that kind of people. After the memory operation is completed, we will correct your life trajectory and ensure that your future life will not be related to extraordinary things."
Not sure whether she was really frightened by what Zhao Sida said, or whether she knew very well that Wu Ming and his party could easily use coercive measures to subdue her, Lin Jiaojiao finally nodded with a sad face: "Then... okay..."
"Manager Wu Ming, regarding memory erasure, I have relevant technologies for operating memories. Emergency treatment can be done first, but someone needs to operate the system externally to complete it. Please don't worry, I will convert the interface to one you are familiar with. If it is convenient for operation, I will also guide you through the operation."
Wu Ming could no longer remember how many times Lao Zhao had done something reliably since they met.
Later, when Zhao Sida put her hand on Lin Jiaojiao's forehead and began to perform memory operations on her, two beams of strong light were projected from her inorganic eyes, and the reflection was projected on the ground to form a familiar operating interface. Only then did Wu Ming understand what she meant by external operations.
It’s really as familiar and easy to operate as Zhao Sida said! She very considerately considered that Wu Ming might not be good at using the memory of extraordinary creatures to operate this function, so she changed the original operation interface to the Windows system operation interface that he was familiar with.
There are only four shortcuts placed on the classic Windows desktop background, 'My Brain' with the human brain image, 'Recycle Bin' with the trash can image, 'Control Panel' with the game controller image and 'The human brain is connected to the earth' image. Network', combined with Zhao Sida's projection status at this time, the system desktop made Wu Ming feel weird. At this time, Zhao Sida's system guidance sound also sounded.
"My human brain stores all kinds of information. I have classified this information into four parts: C, D, E, and F. Please do not modify the file information in area C at will. Manager Wu Ming please Enter Area D, find a folder named Recent Memory, and then delete and modify the memory dating back forty-seven minutes from now according to the file creation time."
Well, area C is the same system disk as always.
Wu Ming looked at this familiar system interface and did not take any action for a long time. It was not until Zhao Sida asked a question that he said quietly: "I think I still need a mouse..."
"The request has been received and the new components are being connected. Manager Wu Ming, now you can use my right hand as a mouse. The index and middle fingers correspond to the forward and reverse mouse buttons. Please continue."
Wu Ming: "..." Dealing with these extraordinary creatures requires a strong enough world view, otherwise it would be too tiring to rebuild it in three days.
Taking a deep breath, Wu Ming shook his head violently to kick those messy thoughts out of his mind, and gently held Zhao Sida's right hand.
What surprised Wu Ming was that the touch of Zhao Sida's petite, smooth hands seemed to be no different from ordinary people's hands, if it weren't for the fact that the hands were too cold and the ball joints on her knuckles were a little awkward when selecting files. , Wu Ming even doubted whether the hand he was holding was a human hand.
Under Zhao Sida's careful guidance, Wu Ming quickly screened out the memories that needed to be deleted in the recent memory folder on the D drive. After Wu Ming repeatedly confirmed that there were no missed memories, he reverse-keyed the selected memory and clicked Delete. , and then copied and pasted the modified memory that Zhao Sida had just prepared to fill in the gaps in Lin Jiaojiao's memory from 47 minutes ago to the present.
"Pasting the selected memory, please wait, the estimated time is two minutes and thirty-five seconds."
Looking at the slowly advancing progress bar and thinking about the finishing work, Wu Ming somewhat understood the director's mood yesterday because it was too troublesome to deal with the aftermath, so he pulled him into the team.
