Dark Light Chaser.

Chapter 609 Doubt

After several attempts, Yang Xingguo learned about his "experiences" over the years from other people.

All his memories before joining the criminal investigation team match up.

Everything changed when she started discussing marriage with Liang Qingyun.

Although the Liang family could not be described as extremely wealthy, they were considered to have some assets in Nevada.

Mr. Liang felt that the security situation in Nevada was too bad, so he decided to move the whole family away from Nevada to live on the Mediterranean coast.

As for why they didn't move to another city and instead chose to go to the other side of the world...

Liang's father explained that the higher-ups were fully aware of the current situation in Nevada, but chose to ignore it instead of taking any action.

He worries that Nevada is just the beginning, and the security situation in Asia Union will only get worse in the future.

Since I'm going to live anywhere anyway, leaving Asia Union might save me the trouble of moving twice.

It was on this matter that Liang's father disagreed with Yang Xingguo.

At that time, Yang Xingguo had only been a member of the criminal investigation team for a few years and was dedicated to changing the status quo of the city.

However, Liang's father wanted Yang Xingguo to be an honest son-in-law who would live with his daughter and take over the family property together, living a simple and boring life.

The two couldn't reach an agreement and parted on bad terms.

Liang Qingyun initially supported Yang Xingguo, after all, women in love tend to side with outsiders.

However, as time went on, the criminal investigation team's tasks became very heavy, and she could not see Yang Xingguo all day long, and she had to worry about his work.

Taking advantage of the situation, Liang's father fanned the flames again, and gradually Liang Qingyun also began to persuade Yang Xingguo to leave Asia Union.

More than a decade ago, Yang Xingguo was not as steady as he is now. He was stubborn and unwilling to leave his job, no matter how much Liang Qingyun tried to persuade him.

As a result, Liang Qingyun, in a fit of anger, left Asia Union with his father and went to Europe.

Yang Xingguo has remained single ever since.

When Yang Xingguo heard this, he immediately asked about Yang Xingyue's background.

Yang Xingguo was completely stunned when he learned that Yang Xingyue was adopted from Yue's family.

My own biological daughter has inexplicably become an adopted child?

Although this did not affect Yang Xingguo's treatment of Yang Xingyue as his own daughter, it still left a knot in his heart.

This knot is the feeling of difference between two different memories.

After making a round of phone calls, Yang Xingguo lowered his arms and looked up at the ceiling.

He silently went downstairs, got into the car, and drove towards his and Liang Qingyun's marital home.

After Liang Qingyun "passed away," Yang Xingguo moved to Qiushui Manor to find someone to take care of Yang Xingyue, and placed Yang Xingyue in the care of his wife's family.

While Yang Xingyue was in school, he would occasionally come back to stay for a couple of days.

Yang Xingguo parked his car in the parking lot, went upstairs to his own door, pressed his fingerprint, entered the password, and inserted the key to open the security door.

The layout of the room hasn't changed much, except that some of the decorative items Liang Qingyun bought back then have disappeared.

The couple's wedding photos are no longer visible on the bedroom shelves.

Yang Xingguo walked blankly into the bedroom, sat on the bed, and looked up at the ceiling.

If someone's description of their experience differs from your own memory, you can say that the other person is deceiving you.

But when two people, three people, and everyone around him said the same thing, Yang Xingguo began to wonder if he really had a mental illness.

Could that person yesterday really be Liang Qingyun? Not only is she not dead, but she didn't even marry me? Was it all just my delusion?
Or did I travel to a parallel world while taking a nap in the office yesterday at noon?

Yang Xingguo's thoughts were in complete disarray.

Others' accounts, the disappearance of objects, the changes in the photos in the album—everything tells him that there's something wrong with his memory.

Yang Xingguo took a deep breath to calm down.

This was too bizarre, so he decided to ask the last two people.

One is Yue Chongshan, and the other is Yue Yangyan, who just returned from vacation.

It's not impossible for someone to try and trick him this way.

After all, the other party could have easily taken everything out of the house while I was resting at Qiushui Manor.

While working at the police station, one could also bribe the maid at home to secretly change the photo album.

The same applies to technicians; as long as you're willing to spend money, you can always get things sorted out.

As for the telephone, it's even easier to explain: by using special means to intercept outgoing calls, one then communicates with oneself using a synthesized voice.

If someone can investigate their past so thoroughly, as long as they don't directly bring up those private matters known only to the two of them, they can easily keep it a secret.

But there are two people who will never have a problem.

One is Yue Chongshan, the actual controller of Nevada City, and the other is Yue Yangyan, who has just returned from the secret service.

Only if even they said what the group of people on the phone said would Yang Xingguo believe that there was something wrong with his mind.

At this moment, Yang Xingguo demonstrated the qualities that a former criminal police officer should have.

With a clear mind, rationally analyze the current situation and identify all possibilities.

Even if we are to believe all of this, we should wait until he has tried all the options he can.

Yang Xingguo locked the door, returned to his car, and took out his spare phone.

He had just turned on his phone to make a call when he suddenly remembered that his car keys were with someone else yesterday.

What was originally a chance coincidence has become a big problem in Yang Xingguo's eyes.

He put the phone back in its place, took his service weapon, got out of the car, and went to the roadside.

Yang Xingguo wandered aimlessly for several kilometers on the street, and finally randomly stopped a passerby who had just gotten off the bus to show him his police officer ID.

"I need to temporarily use your phone. This is my identification."

Yang Xingguo's attitude was rather tough, and he deliberately revealed the pistol at his waist when he took out his identification.

The passersby who were initially dissatisfied immediately became much more subdued.

Seeing the other party's reluctant expression, Yang Xingguo first dialed Yue Yangyan's number.

No one heard.

He then dialed Yue Chongshan's number.

This time the call finally went through.

"Who is it?" Yue Chongshan asked.

"It's me, Yang Xingguo. Is the old man home now? I have some questions for you."

Yang Xingguo did not inquire about the past over the phone.

He would only believe these things if he heard them from the other person's mouth in person.

Yue Chongshan was silent for a while on the other end of the phone.

But his next sentence almost caused Yang Xingguo to suffer a cardiac arrest.

Are you asking about your memory problems?

"how do you know?!"

Yang Xingguo got so excited that he gripped his phone tightly.

A young passerby, noticing the prominent veins on Yang Xingguo's hand, began to worry about his own phone case.

"Come to the study in the villa, and I will tell you everything. The truth may be hard for you to accept, but you'd better be prepared."

Yue Chongshan, who is always outspoken, transforms into a riddle teller at this moment.

Moreover, they are the kind of characters in TV dramas who, one second, say they're going to tell the main characters the truth, and the next second, are silenced with the secret.

Although Yang Xingguo doesn't watch TV dramas, he has personally experienced quite a few of these kinds of things over the years.
