He was both excited and puzzled by the appearance of Screw Gum.

"That's right, it was Lord Luo Feng who used the methods of the Memory Master to bring us in."

"Screw Gum said."

"So it's the power of 'memory'?"

Chadwick followed Screw Gum's gaze to Luo Feng, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes.

"You seem familiar to me; it's as if we've met before."

Chadwick said.

“I have met you from the outside world.”

"He had forgotten everything and wanted to find out who he was through me."

Luo Feng explained.

"I see."

"I have locked myself away in this mental space."

"That's why I, as an outsider, have forgotten my own identity."

After hearing Luo Feng's words, Chadwick immediately understood his situation.

"However, Screws actually addresses you as 'Your Excellency'."

"It seems he highly regards you. Could it be that you are also a genius?"

Chadwick asked curiously.

"If I had to put it that way, I should say I'm the subject of research for geniuses, right?"

Luo Feng smiled.

"Research subjects? Geniuses?"

Chadwick's curiosity was piqued upon hearing this.

"In fact, what Lord Luo Feng said is not accurate."

"I have never seen Lord Luo Feng used as a research subject."

"He was a research assistant whom I respected, and he provided great help to me and several other geniuses."

Screw Gum placed his hand on his heart and said with utmost solemnity.

"I see."

Chadwick nodded:

"So it turns out he really did have connections with many geniuses."

"It's a pity that I've become like this."

"Otherwise, I would also like to ask you for your assistance with my research."

How could Chadwick, a genius himself, not be interested in someone who could get Screw Goom and other geniuses to cooperate with him?

However, thinking of the guilt he carried, he quickly sighed and shook his head.

Does he still have the right to be alive and well enough to participate in a research project?

Or rather, is he really still alive?

Now that he's in Pinocchio, he's probably already dead.

"Screwgoom, you said before that my efforts weren't in vain, right?"

Chadwick composed himself and looked at Screw Goom with curiosity.

"of course."

Screw Gum said solemnly:

Even after the body perishes, you still hold fast to that knowledge.

"It left no opportunity for those with ulterior motives."

"Even though selective blocking drugs have lost their effectiveness, the obsession and persistence ingrained in your consciousness made you do it."

“Wait, Mr. Screw Goom,” the servant looked up, “you mean Dr. Chadwick is dead?”

“That’s right.” Screw Gum nodded.

"But he was perfectly fine in the Pinocchio dream."

The servant frowned.

The black swan beside her rested its chin on its hand and spoke:

"It seems that the company and the family used some means to make the deceased Dr. Chadwick appear in Pinocchio."

"Or perhaps, they took the initiative to send Dr. Chadwick to Pinocchio and eventually waited for him to die of old age."

"At least from my perspective, Dr. Chadwick's mental space doesn't seem like the mental space a living person should have."

She reached out her hand, as if sensing something, her beautiful brows unconsciously furrowing.

"Static memory lacks dynamism."

"They were already fixed in the past and there is no way to bring about new changes."

"This is Dr. Chadwick now."

"That's what the Black Swan said."

"That's only natural, after all, Dr. Chadwick was two people from before the Amber Period."

"And he is not an immortal being; his physical lifespan should have reached its limit long ago."

Dr. Truth added.

"Was Chadwick actually from two centuries ago?"

The servant looked at Chadwick in surprise, thinking that even if Chadwick was dead, he hadn't been dead for very long.

"Has it really been that long?"

"There is no concept of time here. I haven't kept track of time for a very long time."

Chadwick sighed upon hearing this.

"Even though a long time has passed, the company still hasn't been able to obtain any knowledge about imaginary number collapse pulses from you."

"That's why the obsession and will you have engraved in your heart are all the more precious."

"Screw Gum said."

Candice: Even Mr. Screw Goom, a member of the Genius Club, Ms. Black Swan, a Memory Man, and Dr. Truth have said so.

It seems that Dr. Chadwick is truly dead. At least physically.

[Disia: Sigh, I once thought Chadwick's body was still alive, or at least hadn't been dead for too long.]

[Kavi: Seeing that Mr. Screw Goom and Chadwick had met, I thought it hadn't been too long since the day they last met.]

[Al-Hysen: We don't know Mr. Screwgoom's age or lifespan, so it's indeed difficult to judge using him as a reference.]

[Mavika: So Chadwick has been dead for about two Amber Ages? It's incredible that he managed to hold onto his knowledge of imaginary number collapse pulses for so long. What incredible perseverance!]

[Falusian: Indeed! After the body dies, the effects of the blocking drug should also dissipate. It's truly remarkable that he was able to endure it for so long. I suppose the reason Chadwick outside is so confused is because he has sealed his heart away in a bottomless emotional space.]

[Lisa: If Lord Luo Feng hadn't brought Screw Gum along, I wonder how much longer Chadwick would have needed to guard this knowledge.]

………………

“Dr. Chadwick, if you don’t mind, I can mediate with your family on your behalf.”

"It will truly give you back your freedom."

Screw Gumm solemnly addressed Chadwick.

"Thank you, Screwgoom. I still remember the first time I met you, I did it against my will."

"If I could, I would like to say that simple sentence now."

"I joined the experiments related to imaginary number collapse impulses not for any particular ideology, but simply for myself. I wanted my talents to be seen by the world, nothing more."

At this point, Chadwick's body trembled involuntarily.

It took him a long time to calm down.

"Regardless, I congratulate you on finally being able to be honest with yourself, Dr. Chadwick."

"If you don't mind, we'll accompany you on this final leg of your journey."

"I assure you, no one will be able to tamper with your memories."

"If necessary, I can get rid of Mr. Luo Feng and use his influence to negotiate with the company and the family."

"Screw Gum said."

"Him?" Chadwick looked at Luo Feng with slight surprise and said:

"It seems he's even more special than I thought, Screws."
