When I woke up, it was already nighttime, and the room was dimly lit inside, not where I had recently lived, but back in the same lab bedroom I had lived in when I first woke up.
She held her aching forehead and sat up, her ears buzzing inside, but she could vaguely hear the sounds of conversation coming from outside.
“Why did you suddenly faint? Is there something wrong with the transmission?”
“It’s a necessary rejection reaction.”
“What would be the rejection of brainwaves that were originally her own?”
“Not so, if that is a completely belonged to Lucy Chambers brain waves naturally will not have any rejection, biased back then her brain waves mixed into Amelia Bright’s body, Amelia Bright although dead, the active brain waves are not, but the inherent memory brain waves are still very tenacious, the two Mixed together, which is one of the reasons she never remembered who she really is, confused thinking.”
“I don’t need her to remember who she is; it’s enough that I know who she is.”
“But she’s not the same person anymore, you see, if you consider the body, the active brainwaves that can receive new memories, and the inherent brainwaves as three parts of a complete person, then she now has an additional inherent brainwave of someone else in addition to those three.”
“Tell me straight, what exactly are the implications.”
“Once the memory is disturbed, her brain waves cannot be symbiotic, resulting in the end result of … losing her mind,” said Professor Qin, wrinkling her brow and hesitating for a moment, “in layman’s terms, that is, if she can’t remember everything smoothly, she will become a crazy person.”
There was a sudden ‘clang’ in the room and a loud cracking noise.
Sun Huck face immediately tightened, pushed open the room door and walked in briskly, “Lucy …”
Lucy Chambers sat on the edge of the bed with the broken cup of tea at her feet, the hot water pouring over the backs of her feet in a red blur.
She frowned in pain and her features were screwed together.
Sun Huck sprinted over to her and squatted down directly in front of her, carefully lifting her feet, “Why are you so careless?”
“I’m sorry,” Lucy Chambers sounded withdrawn and a little nervous, “I just wanted a drink of water and didn’t hold it steady.”
“There’s nothing to be sorry about, come lie down, I’ll get your medicine, don’t get out of bed, I’ll have the debris taken care of.”
Sun Huck helped her to lie down again on the bed, leaving the burned area on the back of her foot exposed outside the covers, and Professor Qin had come over with the ointment for the burn.
“I’ll do it,” Sun Huck said, taking the medicine from Professor Qin’s hand.
Professor Qin seemed to want to say something, but the words came to his lips and swallowed them, and when he left he looked back three times, looking at Amelia Bright with a very uneasy look.
Sun Huck was very careful when applying the medicine, but touching the burns inevitably hurt, and Lucy Chambers drew a cold breath, biting her lower lip to death, and her thin, single shoulders trembled.
Sun Huck eyes are full of heartache, “be more careful in the future, burn yourself so painful, remember it?”
Lucy Chambers gave a “hmm”.
After the medicine was applied with a simple bandage of gauze, afraid to cover the bad, Sun Huck will rest her feet on the outside of the quilt, sitting at the head of the bed, stretching out his hand to probe the temperature of her forehead.
The fever was very strong for a while, but now it has gone down.
“Does your head still hurt?” He asked.
Lucy Chambers had little strength to speak, so she shook her head.
“Is there anything wrong?”
She shook her head again.
In fact, I just can’t say where I feel uncomfortable, but I actually feel uncomfortable everywhere, but she doesn’t want Sun Huck to worry, so she shakes her head.
These days, Sun Huck to their own good she saw in the eyes, is really no matter how much.
Sun Huck brushed aside the broken hair on her forehead and spoke in a very delicate and gentle tone, “Is there anything you want to eat, I’ll have the kitchen go make it for you.”
Lucy Chambers shakes her head again.
She had just had a headache in her sleep, a headache that made her want to vomit, and no appetite at all.
“Not without eating, you are too thin, the doctor said it’s because you are not fit, so you can’t always remember what happened before.”
Lucy Chambers froze for a moment, “Is that so?”
“Hmm.”
“Then I …” she thought for a moment, “I’d like to have wonton noodles then.”
“Okay, I’ll have someone go make it for you while you get some more sleep.”
“Hmm.”
Looking at the back of Sun Huck leaving, Lucy Chambers clutched the sheet, she actually had a lot of things in mind to ask, but did not know which sentence to start with.
About their own identity, about ‘Amelia Bright’, about what exactly has happened to them before, about why the little orange always looks like a stranger to them.
Despite the fact that everyone here is very friendly to herself, there is no way she can feel a hint of familiarity.
Everything in this estate was new to her.
She was bored lying in bed and simply got out of bed. The burns were still vaguely painful when she walked, but they were bearable.
Outside the bedroom is the laboratory, Professor Qin is still there, comparing something in front of a pile of instruments.
“Professor Qin,” she asked after a moment’s hesitation as she stood in front of the surgical bed where she herself had initially Paisley woke up, “what’s going on with me today?”
Professor Qin frowned, “It’s the after-effects of the surgery, it will slowly get better later.”
“I heard you say something about brainwave interpellation, who is Amelia Bright?”
She asked directly.
Just now inside the bedroom, although she couldn’t hear it too well, she was pretty sure she heard Professor Qin talking about her memory confusion with a woman named Amelia Bright.
And this name, ‘Amelia Bright’, is all too familiar.
Upon hearing this, Professor Qin’s face tightened a few points, “Miss Chambers, don’t ask, I will try my best to make you well and live a normal life, but about what you just said, don’t ever ask again.”
When he said that, he paused for two seconds, “Especially don’t talk about it in front of Mr. Han.”
Lucy Chambers looked puzzled, “Why?”
Sun Huck is her husband, is there anything else she should say to avoid him? This is unreasonable.
Professor Qin’s eyebrows almost twisted into a Sichuan shape, the vicissitudes of a pair of eyes full of worry, “Anyway, you listen to my right, absolutely can not reveal a word out.”
After saying that, he stuffed the information in his hand into his briefcase, “I may rarely come here during this period of time, Fang Yun will accompany you, you can just talk to her if there is anything.”
“Professor …”
Lucy Chambers, holding onto the surgical bed next to her, watched as Professor Qin hurriedly left.
She had the feeling that Professor Qin was deliberately avoiding herself, and there must be some unseen secret in this, but what was it?
The lights in the lab are voice-activated, and after Professor Qin left, the lamps dimmed a little, but there was still a faint light coming from behind the desk.
Lucy Chambers’ eyes slowly fell on the glimmer of light and realized that Professor Qin had forgotten to turn off the computer when he left.
Sitting in front of the computer for a moment, she suddenly thought of why she always felt strange somewhere.
After she woke up, no one told her anything related to the outside world.
What is the outside world like?
