Three Towers Game-Chapter 769 - 226: The Crime Conspiracy of the Aspiring No. 1 Slayer of the Grotesque (Part 2)

Wen Chaohua's statement "Deceit Tower is what's most important" seems to be exemplified here.

Albert interrupted:

"Both of you, stop being modest. Speak up, Evelyn, don't keep us hanging."

Evelyn nodded and got straight to the point:

"I won't conceal this matter for Old Jin anymore... I've chosen to tell you everything, hoping you'll understand my thoughts."

Albert said:

"Even if you don't do this for me, Evelyn, you're still my friend."

Evelyn was a bit surprised by Albert's words. But thinking about it... she seemed to understand.

In Albert's view, it didn't matter who he helped, because deep down he always trusted Old Jin.

"That child actually appeared shortly after you logged into the ninetieth floor."

"He's not from the Bunker."

Wen Xishu perked up; this was absolute insider information.

Albert frowned:

"Continue."

Evelyn said:

"Old Jin made some sort of deal with someone... hmm, this is my guess, he shouldn't have the capability to let someone who doesn't belong to the Bunker enter the Bunker."

"In short, by making a deal with someone of very high authority, Old Jin got that child."

"Afterward, I've been responsible for... eliminating the child's memory."

"But I can only eliminate; I'm unable to probe his memory."

Thinking of Xiaojin's memory, Wen Xishu recalled the Chosen Train. That train showed Xiaojin the fear deep within his heart.

Perhaps those fears were things Xiaojin had forgotten?

"But later, Old Jin would often have me do this kind of thing."

"At the same time, he'd repeatedly mold the child's memory."

Albert asked:

"How does he mold it?" 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Evelyn looked into Albert's eyes:

"Using my sequence, to make him gentle, kind, honest, and friendly."

"In short, it had to be in line with conventional notions of a good person."

"After erasing the child's memory and reshaping it... we'd find ways to begin training him, taking him to do various interesting things to see how he'd make choices."

"Like the trolley problem. Old Jin would even make him choose between 'saving his grandfather or his girlfriend when they're both drowning'—these trivial choices."

Albert seemed to understand:

"You're testing whether the child truly becomes gentle, kind, honest, friendly?"

Evelyn nodded:

"Yes, that's right."

Albert then asked:

"What happened after? Could it be he was only trained recently? You said he entered the Bunker a long time ago, but I only found out recently that he even has a grandson."

Evelyn was silent for a moment, then sighed:

"No, actually according to practical performance, after the first memory elimination and reshaping, the child was already a kind, gentle, friendly, honest kid."

"But what happened next was quite peculiar. In my opinion, after the child seemed to be properly trained..."

"Old Jin would have me erase his memory. He'd revert to a state of complete amnesia."

Wen Xishu and Albert were stunned.

What's going on?

Erase a person's memory, then implant memories that give him many wonderful virtues.

But after successfully achieving this, suddenly erase the person's memory again?

Wen Xishu seemed to hear a computer's "reset."

Evelyn said:

"Hard to comprehend, right? I can't understand why Old Jin does this either?"

"But Old Jin... just like you trust him, Albert, I trust him too. He asks me to do strange things, but as long as he asks, I will do it."

"So next, I started reshaping memories again. This time, Old Jin provided me with many changes. I still had to make the child become a person of virtues, even of saintly qualities."

"But the story materials changed, simply put, the path diverged. I need to make this child turn out the same as before, but the experiences must differ."

Attain the same result but pursue different processes. That, indeed, is understandable.

There's no one in this world whose experience is the same, but human types aren't numerous.

"And then? Old Jin would have you repeat this process over and over?"

Evelyn smiled wryly:

"Yes, I carefully select materials each time. I'd even collect the past of those kind people below, turning their stories."

"But in the end, once the child successfully passes the evaluation and becomes a good person, Old Jin would have me erase the memory again."

"I've lost count of how many materials I've chosen, how many memories I've given him, and then erased, how many times this process has been repeated."

"Until recently... Old Jin began to tell me to give this child new memories, of course, this time it's different."

"This time, this child is a paragon, the grandson of the one with the highest authority in the entire Bunker. Compared to previous materials... this child's identity is quite extraordinary."

"I'm even wondering if Old Jin's torturing this child. After all, all memories will eventually be erased."

"But strangely, this time, Old Jin didn't have me erase memory."

"Shortly afterward, this child appeared at Three Towers Academy, Albert, which is your domain."

"Coincidentally, Wen Xishu, he's your roommate."

Wen Xishu and Albert exchanged a glance.

Albert asked:

"What's your opinion, Evelyn? Do you think Old Jin does this, repeatedly struggles with this child... what on earth is it for?"
