Who Am I?

Faced with Doctor Li's explanation, Jiang Lin began to waver.

"What is going on..."

But after only a moment's hesitation, Jiang Lin regained her resolve.

The other party's statement still has too many loopholes!

The special ink simply cannot explain why that notebook appeared at such a perfect time.

Most importantly...

This hospital is missing so many details!

Thinking about it more deeply, Jiang Lin couldn't even figure out how she got in—that was the biggest loophole.

This is a Game, and although it's realistic enough, it's still not enough...

Reasonable.

The more Jiang Lin thought about it, the more certain she became that this was definitely Game and not reality.

If this really is a hospital, where is it located?

What kind of medicine am I taking?

Why don't any family members visit me?

This is all so unreasonable!

But just as these thoughts were swirling in Jiang Lin's mind...

"You must be thinking, if this were reality, there are just too many illogical details, right?"

Doctor Li spoke again.

Jiang Lin raised her eyes and looked calmly at Doctor Li, as if wanting to know what other tricks he had up his sleeve.

But Doctor Li continued speaking unhurriedly.

"This is Jiangcheng Mental Health Center. You are diagnosed with schizophrenia, accompanied by amnesia and somatization symptoms. You also have depressive tendencies... That's why your parents sent you to the mental health center for hospitalization."

Before Jiang Lin could react, Doctor Li continued.

"Isn't it strange that I know what's on your mind? Because, as I said before... this isn't the first time you've experienced these symptoms."

"These are all questions you've raised before, and they're all recorded in your Medical record —you can look at them yourself."

Doctor Li stepped forward, untied Jiang Lin's restraints, and placed a Medical record into her hand.

Jiang Lin took the Medical record in surprise. Doctor Li continued, "I can even tell you about your character's background in that Game... In that Game, you are a skilled Player named 'Robin,' a core member of an organization called 'The Night Watcher.'"

As Doctor Li spoke, Jiang Lin felt that what he said vaguely matched some things in her Memory that she had forgotten.

But...

Were those just Hallucination and delusions?

Wrong...

No, no, no.

Jiang Lin felt a splitting headache.

"Medical record 1: The patient's parents described that the patient exhibited symptoms such as talking to himself and self-harm at home, and was admitted to the hospital after diagnosis."

"Medical record 2: The patient was discovered attempting suicide while in the hospital, stating that he needed to use suicide as a means to enter a certain Game."

"Medical record 3..."

She flipped through the Medical record, and the more she looked, the more chaotic her thoughts became.

Doctor Li's voice rang out again.

"You've lived here since high school... it's been five years, Jiang Lin."

Do you know how much your parents have sacrificed for you?

Doctor Li sighed as he spoke.

He took a cell phone out of his pocket.

"If you still don't believe it, or still feel that the 'world' isn't real enough, then take a look at this."

Doctor Li started playing a video on his phone.

In the video, a plain-looking middle-aged couple sits on a sofa, and the middle-aged woman speaks somewhat uneasily.

"Xiaolin, the Doctor said your condition has been very unstable lately, so your mom and dad can't come to visit you."

"But Mom and Dad believe in you, you can do it!"

The middle-aged man nodded, rubbing his hands together, and said, "Focus on treatment and get discharged as soon as possible!"

Jiang Lin rubbed her temples as she watched the concerned couple in the video.

Are these my parents?

It seems so.

What exactly is real, and what is fake?

Am I Jiang Lin, a patient at Jiangcheng Mental Health Center, an ordinary student who loves painting, or a patient who has been isolated from society for five years in the hospital?

Wrong...

Wasn't he himself a high-level Player codenamed Robin, a key figure in the "Death game," and a pillar of the "Night Watcher"?

Or is it both?

No...

These two things don't seem to be compatible.

More and more Memory surfaced—everything about "Robin" flooded my mind.

If I were a "Robin," I would never have stayed in this hospital for five years, and my relationship with my parents would never have been that close.

He must have run away from home, rented a small apartment, and made a living by drawing and taking on freelance online jobs...

And it was precisely because of this that he met with an accidental death and entered the Death game.

But...

Just like when I was trying to find a flaw in the hospital.

The "details" in this Memory are far too few.

Jiang Lin simply couldn't imagine how she managed to make a living by painting.

Even the rented room in my Memory seems blurry.

She couldn't remember any of the details, such as the placement of the items or the direction the door faced.

On the contrary, the person who was considered "mentally ill" had a hazy Memory... but the video was clearly visible.

Am I really just a mental patient?

Jiang Lin slumped into a chair.

She took out that "vocabulary book" once again.

Doctor Li pressed his advantage, saying, "If you really consider yourself a 'Player'... according to what you've said, you should have abilities like 'Summoning items out of thin air' or summoning [Item]!"

"And what about your ability?"

Now, Jiang Lin is trapped in endless self-doubt.

So upon hearing Doctor Li's words, Jiang Lin smiled wryly and spoke.

"I... I forgot how to use it."

"But according to what's written in this notebook... the handwriting says I had a backup plan on the 'fifth floor'."

"If I can't retrieve the [Item], I can go check the fifth floor."

As Jiang Lin spoke, Doctor Li laughed.

"Alright, since you insist on thinking that way... going won't hurt."

"To be honest, the reason this forged Notebook keeps mentioning the fifth floor is because the fifth floor is the Intensive Care Unit, where very dangerous patients are held... Perhaps this notebook is trying to lead you to the fifth floor and create some confusion."

"But I can go with you and see for myself."

As Doctor Li spoke, his voice grew somber.

"Whatever's on the fifth floor, I believe in facts and science... Maybe if you give up completely, you'll be able to receive proper treatment!"

"Let's go!"

He clapped his hands as he spoke.

Two security guards came in and untied the last two restraints on Jiang Lin's body.

Afterwards, Doctor Li put away the Medical record and notebooks, and escorted Lin Yu out of the confinement room in an almost imprisoning formation. They then entered the Unsafe Passage again and climbed the stairs to the fifth floor.
