Someone Had Tampered with His Memories
Mo Chen sat below with a cold expression.
Listen to those people discussing how to deal with themselves.
His heart was filled with resentment towards Cui Zicheng, who had disappeared without a trace.
After learning that the police had followed the clues to their location because of Cui Zicheng's unexplained disappearance, they...
He immediately set about investigating Cui Zicheng's whereabouts.
If he finds Cui Zicheng, then Cui Zicheng will inevitably suffer severe punishment, and may even be sentenced to death for betraying the organization.
Even if it wasn't Cui Zicheng's intention, the Key Society's losses still need to be addressed.
Unexpectedly, neither Mo Chen, the Key Society, nor the police could find the missing Cui Zicheng.
They didn't even know if he was alive or dead.
The surveillance footage from the commercial street only showed him leaving alone, entering a secluded alley, and then disappearing from view.
The police weren't the only ones who went into that alley; they went there once too.
Regardless of whether scientific or unscientific methods were used, no clues were obtained.
The police suspected the Key Society Key Society, believing that they either hid the person or murdered Key Society to cover up the crime.
But the Key Society knows its own situation; the missing Cui Zicheng truly has nothing to do with them.
Even if they explain, will the police believe them?
They couldn't possibly go to their door to prove their innocence; that would be walking right into a trap.
They could only suffer in silence, unable to express their bitterness.
Unable to vent their anger elsewhere, they could only direct it at Mo Chen, Cui Zicheng's guide.
Mo Chen was suddenly facing punishment, so it was impossible for him not to be angry.
But he knew he couldn't defy the company's higher-ups.
Finally, after discussion, the punishment for Mo Chen was decided. "Originally, you would be penalized with a two-year deduction of your profit sharing and a year of solitary confinement as a warning to others."
"However, given that we value talent, and considering that Mo Chen's only problem was inadequate supervision, we will only penalize him with two years of bonuses, and the confinement will be waived."
Those people looked magnanimous, as if to say that the punishment they had given him was very lenient and a sign of mercy.
Mo Chen sneered inwardly, but outwardly he pretended to respectfully accept the punishment.
Isn't it because the Key Society is being chased by the police and has nowhere to hide? All the students they recruited have been detained, and now they are severely short-staffed?
Such a useful subordinate of his cannot be locked up and left unused.
Otherwise, why would they be so kind?
"By the way, Mo Chen, you said you'd found a promising talent?"
Mo Chen lowered his head slightly to show his compliance. "Yes, he is a student from Snow Sun First Middle School."
Mo Chen described the enormous reaction that Affinity Stone Affinity Stone after the student touched it.
Upon hearing that the Affinity Stone had emitted a powerful light, the high-ranking officials became excited.
"Such talent is absolutely unique."
"A genius! He's absolutely a genius!"
We absolutely must get our hands on this guy.
"Hahaha, he's absolutely the most suitable candidate."
"Excellent! Such a suitable candidate, it truly blesses our company!"
The high-ranking officials stood up excitedly, their eyes revealing astonishing greed and malice.
Who is he? Have you found out where he lives?
Mo Chen was about to say the student's name, "His name is..."
However, when he opened his mouth, the name that should have been uttered came out lingering in his throat.
At the same time, his mind went completely blank.
Strange, what was that student's name again?
Why did I forget?
My memories... seem much blurry. Who is he?
A look of confusion flashed across Mo Chen's face. He tried desperately to recall, but found that he couldn't remember anything no matter what he did.
Not only that, even the student's face, voice, and figure were shrouded in a fog in his mind.
He couldn't see the figures inside through the fog.
If Mo Chen weren't a member of the Key Society, if he had never encountered the supernatural, if he didn't know that special abilities actually existed in the world.
Perhaps he'll just suspect that his memory is too poor, and he's selectively forgotten these things.
However, Mo Chen had been in contact with these mysterious things for a long time and knew quite a bit about them.
He quickly realized something was wrong.
Mo Chen's face turned pale with horror; someone had tampered with his memories!
The higher-ups were still waiting for his answer, and seeing him dawdling and his expression changing, they pressed him for an answer with some impatience.
What's his name?
"Stop dawdling."
Mo Chen swallowed hard, then said with a wry smile, "I don't remember."
His name, his face, his voice, his image—it's as if they've been erased from my mind. No matter how hard I try, I can't recall anything about him; I only remember that he existed."
However, he couldn't recall any clues that could lead him to that person.
The higher-ups were also very knowledgeable about special abilities, and their expressions changed immediately upon hearing Mo Chen's words.
"Could it be... that the Contract Anomalist intervened and saved him?"
After thinking about it, they realized that the only ones with the ability to react so quickly were the suddenly appearing Contract Anomalist and the organization behind them.
"I heard they're severely understaffed; if it were them, there's a high chance they'd do it."
The Contract Anomalist, the Anomaly Tamer.
Although they differ by only one character, they are quite different.
Ultimately, those who can become Contract Anomalist and Anomaly Tamer all need some talent to some extent.
It's hard to say how things are going with the Contract Anomalist.
However, they still have their own opinions on what Anomaly Tamer is like. First of all, Anomaly Tamer uses their own body to imprison the ghosts, suppressing them with their body and mind.
Only then can one use bizarre abilities.
However, it is strangely natural and possesses a corrosive and invasive nature towards the human body.
Even without using their abilities, as long as the eerie entity remains imprisoned within the body, it will continuously erode the body and mind of the Anomaly Tamer.
Each use of the ability increases the speed at which the eerie force Anomaly Tamer.
Therefore, talent is very important for Anomaly Tamer, as it can slow down the rate at which supernatural beings erode the body and mind.
Those who lack talent mostly couldn't withstand the strain and died.
Every surviving Anomaly Tamer possessed remarkable talent.
"Damn the Contract Anomalist!"
"They not only gained international recognition first, but they're also competing with us for talent."
The higher-ups disliked the Contract Anomalist very much.
They didn't know where the Contract Anomalist came from, nor why such Contract Anomalist existed.
Key Society is an organization that has existed for over a hundred years since its founding.
