Magic: Reincarnate from high-voltage electricity at the start, level up independently.

In the airport waiting hall.

When Chu's mother saw the white-haired girl's heart being ripped out while she was still alive during the live broadcast, that was the moment she witnessed it.

Her mind went blank, her vision went completely black, her body went limp, and she fainted on the spot.

Mr. Chu, who was standing nearby, reacted extremely quickly. He reached out and tightly hugged his wife, who was about to fall, his eyes bloodshot, and frantically shouted to the surrounding crowd:

"Doctor! Is there a doctor?! Someone has fainted!"

Airport medical staff rushed to the scene and, after a brief examination, immediately put the unconscious passenger into an ambulance and took him to the nearest hospital.

On the ambulance.

Mr. Chu stared intently at his wife's pale, bloodless face, the phone screen still lit up in his hand, the thrilling live broadcast still lingering on the screen.

We arrived at the hospital.

The moment he watched his wife being wheeled into the emergency room, Chu's father's mental defenses, which had been taut all day, completely crumbled.

The daughter is missing and her fate is unknown.

His wife, with whom he had been together for many years, suddenly fainted and required emergency treatment.

Two consecutive heavy blows became the last straw that broke his back.

He was only in his thirties, the age when a man should be full of energy and high spirits.

But at this moment, he was disheveled and helpless, and could only lean against the corner of the corridor wall, head down, silently sobbing and shedding tears.

……

In the ward.

Chu's mother lay quietly in bed, still not awake.

Chu's father stayed by the bedside, not closing his eyes all night.

His eyes were sunken, bloodshot, and his face was etched with exhaustion and paleness.

He watched yesterday's live stream from beginning to end, gritting his teeth.

In order to defeat the insurmountable chaotic figure, Chu Ge gouged out his own eyes, pierced his own ears, and destroyed all his senses to fight to the death in the final battle.

But in the end...

Four powerful members of the Magic Association intervened and joined forces to blockade the island.

Hundreds of nuclear bombs dropped by the authorities crashed down, leveling the entire deserted island and the surrounding sea.

Chu Ge and everything on the island perished in the cold depths of the Pacific Ocean, with almost no chance of survival.

At the moment the nuclear bomb exploded and a white light shot into the sky, Chu's father's heart shattered completely.

He sat there all night, unable to figure it out.

A perfectly happy family of four, living a peaceful and harmonious life, how did it all turn into this in just one day?

Just as he was lost in thought, a cell phone rang suddenly.

Chu's father came to his senses.

The sound wasn't from his phone, but from his wife's phone on the bedside table.

Caller ID: Xuexue Lili.

Mr. Chu glanced at his sleeping wife, took his phone, and quietly walked out of the ward. He went to a quiet spot in the stairwell and pressed the answer button.

Lin Xueli's relaxed voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Sister, are you home? I'll come over in a bit."

Chu's father took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the hoarseness in his voice, trying to make his voice sound steady:

"Sydney, it's me, your brother-in-law. We're at the hospital."

"What?!"

Lin Xueli's voice changed instantly, filled with panic and worry, and she immediately asked:

"Which hospital? Send me the address, I'll be right there!"

Soon, Chu's father sent over the hospital address.

Upon seeing the news, Lin Xueli did not hesitate at all. She immediately turned her car around on the road and rushed to the hospital.

The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became.

Her brother-in-law's tone was tired and heavy. With just one sentence, "in the hospital," she knew that things were definitely not simple.

Something must have happened to my sister, and it must be very bad.

……

Not long after, Lin Xueli rushed to the ward.

She pushed open the door and immediately looked at Chu's mother on the hospital bed.

After observing her carefully for a long time and confirming that her sister was only unconscious and not in any danger, she finally felt a little relieved.

Then she turned her head and looked at Chu's father, who looked haggard.

"Brother-in-law, come out for a moment."

After saying that, she was the first to leave the ward.

Chu's father silently followed him out.

The corridor was quiet and deserted.

The afternoon sun shone on Lin Xueli's face, her expression serious, with the calmness and obsession unique to scientific researchers.

"Brother-in-law, what exactly happened?"

Chu's father remained silent for a long time.

He really didn't want to relive that nightmare.

But Lin Xueli is his wife's younger sister and Chu Ge's aunt; she has the right to know everything.

He looked up, his eyes churning with endless pain.

"Xiao Ge... she's gone."

Those five short words were like five steel needles, piercing deeply into Lin Xueli's mind.

She froze instantly, her face filled with disbelief: "What?!"

Chu's father felt a pang of heartache, opened the live stream replay on his phone, and handed it to Lin Xueli.

Lin Xueli took it and quietly watched the entire brutal battle and the final nuclear explosion.

The more she looked, the more her brows furrowed.

As the video ended, her body trembled involuntarily, and she murmured to herself:

"How could this happen..."

These days she's been immersed in the lab, researching new drugs, completely cut off from the outside world, and hasn't even looked at the news.

She made a special trip from Dachang City to Donghai City because the new drug had finally been successfully developed, and she planned to come here to test it on Chu Ge.

But after traveling thousands of miles, she was met with such devastating news.

At that moment, she finally understood why her sister had fallen into a coma and been hospitalized.

Anyone would have been unable to withstand such a blow.

After calming down for a long time, Lin Xueli looked at Chu's father:

"Brother-in-law, what are you planning to do now?"

"Wait until your sister wakes up."

Chu's father's eyes were filled with tears: "The rest... I don't know what to do with it."

He didn't even dare to call Chu Hong.

He guessed that his son had most likely seen the live stream and knew that his sister was gone.

To make matters worse.

He dared not let his son know that his mother had fallen into a coma and been hospitalized again because of this.

Looking at his exhausted state, Lin Xueli said softly:

"Brother-in-law, go and rest for a while. I'll stay with my sister."

Mr. Chu didn't want to rest, but his physical exhaustion and reason told him that he had to.

He looked at Lin Xueli and whispered, "Thank you."

……

In the early hours of the third day, Chu's mother finally woke up.

But something about her was very wrong.

She lay there quietly, her eyes glazed over, staring straight at the ceiling, without saying a word.

He was eerily calm.

Chu's father called out to her.

She simply turned her head slowly, looking at him quietly, her eyes empty and devoid of any emotion.

After the examination, the doctor gave the following diagnosis:

Psychogenic amnesia caused by severe psychological trauma.

The brain activates its self-protection mechanism due to extreme pain, shutting down memories and emotions.

The doctor said that with careful care and gentle guidance, there is still a possibility of recovery.

On the fourth day, Lin Xueli drove to pick them up from the hospital.

When she saw her sister looking blank and numb, as if she had lost her soul, she remained silent for a long time.

She researched many medications, but none of them could cure this kind of psychological trauma.

The usually confident research genius was now at a loss, unable to even cure his own sister.

Seeing the sorrow on her father's face, she finally offered some words of comfort:

"Brother-in-law, actually... this is for the best."

"If she were to fully regain her senses and all her memories were restored, and she were to dwell on Xiao Liuli's story every day, she would only be filled with tears and live a life of suffering."

She stopped herself in her tracks.

She didn't dare say the part about "even having suicidal thoughts."

Chu's father fell even more silent.

He understands everything.

Understanding the principles doesn't mean he can accept or let go of them.

……

Half an hour later, the car arrived at the underground parking lot of the residential area.

Chu's father carefully helped his wife out of the car.

A couple got out of the parking space next to theirs.

She was a former colleague of his. The two families lived in the same neighborhood and had a good relationship, often eating together.

Chu's father forced a smile and nodded at the other person.

But just as the male colleague was about to greet him, his wife kept tugging at his clothes and giving him meaningful glances.

Finally, the two remained silent the entire time, pretending not to see anything, and quickly moved away.

Mr. Chu was stunned for a moment, his mind filled with doubt.

The two families used to have a good relationship, so there's no need for them to deliberately distance themselves like this.

He was just too exhausted, both physically and mentally, to think about it further.

Lin Xueli, who was standing to the side, had witnessed the bizarre scene just now and instantly recalled some news she had seen online in the past two days.

He didn't look well.

Just as Mr. Chu was helping Mrs. Chu toward the elevator, Lin Xueli suddenly called out to him:

"Brother-in-law."

Chu's father paused, turned around, and looked at Lin Xueli with curiosity.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Xueli looked at Chu's father and said seriously:

"I think you'd better not go up there, otherwise you might see some... disgusting things at the entrance."
