Back in the research institute, Mary skillfully operated the computer, using body-sensory movements to push and glue the images suspended in the air.
"No. 1386, No. 3695..." Mary pulled out the fragments one by one from the memory bank. First she found a vague colorful vase, turned it 180 degrees, and placed it in the center of the picture.
Then put another piece of memory scattered by flowers behind it.
The next fragment shows a foot stepping on the petals.
Mary is like a master editor, connecting the fragmented clues. As more and more fragments are put together, the originally static picture becomes a moving film, and the sounds, smells, and touches are also enriched little by little.
everything.
After more than an hour of polishing, adding and subtracting, a memory of a conversation between Lawrence and Sabrina appeared before Todd's eyes.
The freshly picked flowers sleep quietly in the vase. The first ray of sunlight in the morning shines into the room, casting a golden glow on the petals hanging with dewdrops.
Unfortunately, this tranquility was completely destroyed by the furious owner of the room.
In the first perspective, the vase was thrown to the ground with great force. There was a harsh breaking sound accompanied by flying fragments, and the flowers were scattered all over the floor.
An angry male voice sounded: "Sabrina! You said you failed, what's going on?!"
A young woman wearing a white workshop robe sat on the desk and stretched lazily: "Do you want me to say it again? My identity has been exposed, and I can no longer stay in Theodore's laboratory.
.”
Lawrence took two steps forward and stepped heavily on the flowers on the ground: "How is it possible? How is it possible?! I remember you said that you have mastered all the expressions and movements of this woman!"
Sabrina lifted her hair and looked helpless: "As Theodore's assistant, I have indeed observed this woman for a long time. She was fine this week when she first entered the laboratory. However, there is something wrong with this woman where she works.
A lover."
"lover?"
"An Etanian, good looking, good figure, good voice..."
Lawrence shouted angrily: "Sabrina!!!"
The young woman tilted her head and said: "Impatient guy, let me just get to the point. One night, he came to me to spend the night together..."
"You agreed?!" Lawrence's face was darker than the bottom of the pot.
"I didn't want to make the other party suspicious, but to be honest, I was a little bored during that time. So, we went to bed..." Sabrina's expression became interesting: "The trouble is, I know this woman's
Movements and expressions, but I don't know her posture on the bed. Maybe it was because of my wildness and passion that the lover realized that something was wrong."
Lawrence kicked away the debris and petals on the ground and whispered: "What did you do?!"
"I killed him."
Sabrina shrugged: "The Etanian man lay on the bed pretending to be innocent, put on his pants, turned against me, and threatened to report me to Theodore. I had no choice but to kill him.
"
Lawrence slumped weakly in the chair, shook his head and asked, "So, what did you learn about Jerome during this week in Theodore's laboratory?"
"Not much, but crucial enough."
Sabrina's words made Lawrence instantly interested.
"Tell me about it!"
"Theodore seems to be using a black liquid to cure the successor's mutation. This liquid comes from a place in the north called the Kingdom of Shadows."
Lawrence thought thoughtfully: "The Kingdom of Shadows? I remember that it seemed to be the divine realm among the barbarians?"
Sabrina continued: "Theodore used this black liquid to try to treat multiple mutated successors, but the success rate was not high, and most of the samples would still die. Even Jerome, who survived, was treated with West
In Otto's own words, it was also a failure."
Lawrence then asked: "The result of failure? Then did he say what it will be like once it succeeds?"
"He said that all species in the world will undergo a great evolution!"
The memory image is over.
Todd watched as the screen turned to black, with the words black liquid, Northern Divine Realm, Kingdom of Shadows, and species evolution still echoing in his mind.
The key to healing the heir lies in the north?
Todd turned to Mary and asked again: "Besides this memory about Theodore, is there anything else?"
Mary stared at the screen in front of her attentively and replied absentmindedly: "This is the most complete one. The other memory fragments are too damaged and cannot be spliced together."
Todd approached her and asked curiously: "What are you looking at so seriously?"
On Mary's screen, several oil paintings with breasts appeared.
Mary carefully distinguished the names under the oil paintings: "Sleeping Venus, Susanna in the Bath, Danae..."
Todd finally understood what happened. When he was participating in school activities in his previous life, he went to visit the World Oil Painting Exhibition one day. He had no impression of other works. Only these were oil paintings of female bodies, which were engraved in the subconscious of the brain. Now
Someone turned it out.
He ran over, hurriedly covered the screen with his back, and smiled awkwardly at Mary: "There's nothing interesting, just a few oil paintings of the human body."
Mary said to him excitedly: "Your Majesty, who painted these?!"
The corners of Todd's mouth twitched and he said: "These are the works of masters!"
Mary looked suspicious, stretched her head and looked at the screen again, and said: "I have been exposed to countless paintings since I was a child, but I have never heard of these paintings! You told me that these are the works of masters? So, may I ask,
Which master is the creator?”
Todd didn't know until now that he could sweat like rain in the soul space. He tried his best to recall: "I remember there was someone named Joel, and there was someone named An..."
Mary's face sank: "Your Majesty, no matter how noble your status is, you should not be so frivolous towards art. I have never heard of these masters you mentioned!"
Seeing that the explanation was unclear, Todd simply broke the pot and shifted all the responsibilities to the vague and unknown: "I am not referring to here, but to a more distant world."
Mary opened her eyes wide, pointed her finger to the sky, crossed herself devoutly, and slowly nodded in agreement.
What Todd didn't expect was that Mary, who had stepped out of the soul space, just relied on the power of super memory to imitate and display the famous paintings he had seen stroke by stroke. This incident caused a stir in the entire Muxi City art circle.
Within, a magnitude 10 earthquake was triggered.
As for the origin of the famous paintings, Mary kept secrets. She only vaguely pointed out that she copied the collection of King Todd, and these collections came from a higher place.
Of course, these are all things for later and will not be mentioned for now.
Because, the first official examination in Muxi City has officially begun...
