Night Hacker Chapter 109: Total recall


  Chapter 330 Comprehensive Recall

  "Doctor Gu, Doctor Gu? Have you left yet?"

  I vaguely heard an intimate voice talking.

  Who? Really noisy...

  Gu He was awakened by the strong smell of perfume, he opened his eyes uncomfortably, looked around, and was stunned for a moment.

  Sweating profusely!

  He is lying on a desk, seems to have just fallen asleep, the computer screen on the desk is still on, and the window of the instant chat software is constantly ding-dong ding-dong new news, and a cleaning lady next to him is holding a the broom asked him.

  Here, 80% of me is transmigrated, 20% is crazy...

  Gu He stood up blankly. This is a psychological counseling room, with a fabric sofa, a log bookshelf full of books, warm wallpaper, a few art paintings with positive psychological hints on the wall, and a pot in the corner. A well-groomed money tree.

  It looks like his own counseling room...

  Suddenly, he felt violently dizzy, and some memory images came to mind.

  Wild Dog, Streamer City, Fish Pond, Red Rain Group, Lorna, Key Program, Mind Network...

  "Doctor Gu?" The aunt asked again with a smile, "Isn't today 520 Valentine's Day, don't you go on a date with your girlfriend?"

   "Uh... my girlfriend is not here..." Gu He said in a daze.

  "Long-distance relationship." The aunt became gossipy, "That must be hard work."

   "Hmm..." Gu He had too many questions in his mind, so he didn't have much time to talk nonsense with his aunt, so he just said a few perfunctory words.

  He walked around the consultation room, went into the bathroom, looked in the mirror, and found that he was right.

  He was concentrating on using the supernatural program, but there was no response at all, and there was no console, and he no longer had that supernatural feeling in his mind. There was no interface or prompt box, just like normal.

  The cleaning aunt left, Gu He walked back to the desk, closed those chat windows that said "Mr. Xiaohe, thank you", and ignored the red envelopes sent.

  He picked up a mobile phone on the table and pressed it. It was a long-lost smartphone.

  May 20th, whether it is computer time, mobile phone time, or news online, it is now May 20th.

   That is, the day I traveled to Liuguang City.

   Gu He pondered and walked to the window of the consultation room, and looked out the window.

  The consultation room is located on the eighth floor of this commercial building, from which you can see the street scene outside.

  As the evening approaches, there are not so many neon lights, and there are no street dogs all over the road. You can’t see fancy clothes from the passers-by, but they are all ordinary modern styles. There are more people wearing Dongtu sportswear.

  There are also many students in school uniforms, young parents dragging their children away, hawkers setting up stalls, and grandparents.

  This technology, this era, this urban scene, has really come back, this is Jianghai City.

   "Mom, should I be happy..." Gu He was at a loss.

  Obviously I was so looking forward to being able to travel back in the past, but now I feel a little disappointed.

   Lorna, Lorna. He scratched his head, Lorna was still in Liuguang City, and so were everyone.

  But, what's going on?

  He looked at the computer and checked it carefully. The host, LCD screen, keyboard, mouse...there are no signs of leakage, all in good condition.

  A dream? Nonsense, every detail, those experiences and moods, I remember clearly, must have worn it back...

   At that time, in the key maze.

  Gu He sat on the office chair, and when his mood calmed down, he carefully thought about the final situation.

  At that time, he and Pang Dahai were facing a ball of light. Pang Dahai said that it was the great consciousness of the heart network. He felt that he could not defeat the opponent.

  Could this be a heart net illusion?

  Gu He suddenly had a horrifying thought, the words of the illusion in the heart.

  It's just that he turned his head and looked around, moved his hands and feet, whether it was vision, hearing, smell and other perceptions, or thoughts, he didn't feel the slightest difference.

  This is too real...

  "Wait, Pang Dahai seems to have said that the mind-net consciousness can create all perceptions.

  "If all the information the brain receives from the real world is simulated, wouldn't that be, would it be like this..."

  Gu He thought so, a brain in a vat?

   Those who are trapped by the fantasy script created by Sakai Shukichi will not feel that they are in a fantasy world, and Vivian's new K-level program, Fanhuo, this situation is possible.

  The more he thought about it, the more he felt a little weird, but looking at everything around him, it might just be suspicious.

  Did he come back from time travel, or fell into an illusion, or did he go crazy.

  Gu He picked up a thermos cup on the table, opened it, and took a sip of wolfberry water. The water was still warm, but the thermos cup couldn't speak, and there was no problem with the perception of drinking water.

   Let's walk around first to see what's going on.

  Based on this idea, Gu He used his mobile phone to make many calls, to his parents and friends.

   "Hello, Mom? It's nothing, just call home, um... ok, got it, don't bother me, um..."

   "Hey, Qiangzi? Tonight? There's no show, and you know that I don't hang out with clients, so that's a violation of professional norms... Do you want to come out for a meal and work overtime? Okay, you're busy Let's go."

  "Hey, spare ribs, come out to eat? Ah, when did you get a girlfriend, and you just confessed successfully? Oh, congratulations."

  The more Gu He talked on the phone, the more he scratched his head.

  No problem, full of long-lost but familiar people, they each have their own lives, and everything is working.

  His six months in Liuguang City seemed to be just a colorful dream.

   "Wearing it back?" Gu He picked up the thermos and left the counseling room.

   Not long after, he took the elevator full of people to the lobby on the first floor of the building, and went to the commercial street outside.

  The night has fallen, and there are more pedestrians on the street, because there is a movie theater here, there are couples dating in pairs everywhere, and there are also nearby residents walking their dogs. The traffic on the road is endless.

  Gu He walked on the sidewalk, strolling, looking around, and buying things from small vendors.

   Gradually, he stopped and let out a long breath.

  This feeling, the feeling of safety and order, is really good.

  There will be no bank thugs or gangsters appearing out of nowhere, people are living a normal life, and so is he, a young talent with a successful career, and a mentor to Xiaohe who is getting famous.

  However, in Liuguang City, there is an important person in that place, Lorna...

  "In the world over there, am I level now, I haven't gone back, Lorna, and everyone, are you sad?"

   Gu He thought, his heart ached.

  I worked so hard for something, it was a smile and hope, it was a dream, I said I would go back.

  Now, what a joke, Lorna can't suffer this kind of result...

  "No, I have to figure out what's going on first. If it's an illusion, I have to go out quickly. If I really wear it back, I have to study whether it can be worn at both ends, and whether I can bring Lorna and the others over."

  Gu He walked hurriedly and started running on the road, trying to get his heart rate up.

  After running for a while, his physical fitness was obviously not as good as when he was an extraordinary person, so he was a little out of breath.

  Heart rate accelerated, nerves accelerated, adrenaline soared, and perception did not change...

   "Hey, this young man!" A dog walker was almost bumped into, very displeased: "The street is full of people, why are you running?"

   "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Gu He apologized immediately, he was used to the style in Liuguang City, let alone running on the streets over there, he could fly, he slowed down and took a deep breath to adjust his breath.

  He looked at the people all over the street, and continued to use some actions to test whether this place was an illusion.

  It's just that, of course, he can't have any excessive behavior, otherwise he will have to spend tonight in the caretaker.

  So it's just general experimentation, shopping, eating, looking here and there, chatting up random passers-by.

   "Hello, do you know how to get to Liuguang City?" He asked an aunt who was walking.

  "Liuguang City? I've never heard of it..." The aunt was puzzled, "Is it a store or something?"

   "Uh." Gu He faced the strange eyes of the aunt, and knew what kind of nightclub Liuguang City sounded like.

   Then, he went to ask a young couple sitting on a roadside rest chair.

  "Hello, I have a survey here, can I ask you to do it?"

  "We're not interested." "Sell insurance, don't buy it." The couple drove him away with a cold attitude.

  He went to ask a girl in a high school sports uniform, "Miss..."

   "Miss, I'm a boy." The high school student interrupted, but he didn't get angry.

  Oh my god, Gu He was startled, this is a girl's hairstyle and makeup, I think you really have the qualifications to be an old dog.

  That's it. He walked around and asked around, but he couldn't find any clues.

   "This is the Xinwang illusion!" Gu He suddenly yelled into the night sky while he was still on the street, and decided to get something bigger, "Xinwang big consciousness, come out, pretend to be quite like, fat sea, Are you there, come out!"

  The passers-by around cast their gazes one after another, and hurried away, some people pointed.

  "Is he mentally ill?" "Don't worry about it, walk around, be careful of him cutting people." "He's well dressed."

  Gu He yelled, but there was no response other than being surrounded by passers-by. A nearby patrolman came to ask what was going on.

  He exhaled again, shook his head, and continued walking.

  As the night wore on, he returned to his rented apartment and lay down on a bed with a comfortable mattress.

  Playing games, watching news, watching videos, surfing the Internet, and chatting with a smart phone, there is no problem at all.

  Assuming that this world is false, even if you know this fact, how can you prove it and decipher it?

  Gu He lay down and thought for a long time, but he didn't have a clue, so he jumped from a tall building? Then maybe fall to your death.

  Try to sleep well, will he wear it back like this, or know something from the dream, if he is really in the illusion now, will he dream, will he dream of Lorna...

  Gu He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, stopped thinking, and let himself fall asleep.

  But his mind was still messed up for a long time before he gradually fell asleep.

  ……

  There are dreams, you can dream, all kinds of dreams, but not many people dream of Liuguang City.

  From May 21st, "Xiaohe Counseling Center" will be temporarily closed.

  Jianghai City is a coastal city. Gu He went to the beach that day, stood on the beach looking at the sea, and called out to the fat sea. There was only the sound of the waves, and the different gazes of other people around him.

  Is there any dolphins in this city? There are zoos and aquariums.

  In the next few days, Gu He went to these places one by one to see the dolphins there, but still did not find them.

  After that, he flew back to his hometown city, went home to reunite with his parents, and visited those old places, streets, schools, parks...

  After staying in his hometown for a week, he flew to other cities by plane.

  In the blink of an eye, it has been half a month since Gu He returned to this world.

  He went to many cities, many places.

  He was much quieter, and he didn't know whether the heart network illusion could have such a wide range and last for such a long time.

  He returned to Jianghai City, Xiaohe Psychological Counseling Center opened again, serving customers who came to the door, going to work and leaving get off work.

  Day by day, Gu He seems to have regained the rhythm of his life, and the lost stability and future have been restored.

  In one month, everything in Liuguang City became far away, more and more like a dream.

  Often inexplicable sense of déjà vu, often familiar, but in the end nothing is gained.

  It’s just, is it really like this, is it really like this...

  The figure in black leather clothes still resurfaces in his mind again and again every day.

  On this day, Gu He did not go to his own consultation room, but went to another psychological clinic to find Liang Jiahui, a senior senior sister whom he knew when he was studying, everyone called her Sister Liang.

  Sister Liang not only has a high degree of education, but also has been practicing for many years. She is also qualified as a psychiatrist.

  "Xiao He, why do you feel uncomfortable?"

  At this time, Gu He lay down on a soft leather bench for customers in the simple, elegant and warm consultation room furnished by Sister Liang.

  He didn't make it clear on the phone before, only saying that he might have a mental condition.

  Sister Liang was sitting on the office chair next to her. She didn't wear a white coat that would make customers nervous, but ordinary clothes. She had a round face that made people feel kind, and she was always kind.

  "Sister Liang, I want you to hypnotize me." Gu He said seriously, "I feel like I have lost some very important memories. I want you to help me wake up this possible hidden memory."

  He has thought about it, regardless of whether it is an illusion or not, if his personality Rubik's Cube is still intact, some information in it should just be blocked, but it is still there, deep in his personality memory.

  Including his extraordinary program, console, incomplete key program, and even Vivian's personality material.

  As long as something is awakened, will his extraordinary ability recover, and will there be cracks in the illusion...

   At least, there will be no changes.

  He tried self-hypnosis, but he couldn't complete it. Hypnosis often relies on the guidance of a psychologist.

  Regardless of whether Sister Liang is part of the illusion, she can only try now.

  "Hypnosis, amnesia?" Sister Liang was a little surprised, "Do you remember anything?"

   "Let's put it this way, I feel like I've been to another world, and my memory is very clear." Gu He was still very serious, "There is information in my mind, but I can't find it now, I want to find it. Come back."

  He knew, really knew, that he was schizophrenic like this.

  "Information?" Sister Liang listened, "It's not just experiences, but also like files put in the computer?"

  "Yes." Gu He nodded immediately, this is called professionalism.

  "Xiaohe, have you ever gone to the hospital to take a film..." Sister Liang said again, also very seriously: "It is to check whether there is any brain damage, because some physical damage will directly lead to memory confusion."

  Gu He really never went to the hospital to take a film.

  Although he knew that this was still a professional consideration for Sister Liang, he still pleaded:

  "Just take it as if I'm telling the truth, help me for a while, if it doesn't work, I'll make a film."

   "Okay, okay." Sister Liang smiled, and as if he had no choice, got up to connect him with medical equipment, and said: "I don't evaluate your memory, I just help you find it out. .”

  Gu He understood that Sister Liang wanted him to relax, regardless of her attitude, because he probably thought she would not believe it.

  This world also has psychological equipment, which has nothing to do with alchemy, flesh and blood, and uses electricity.

  There are ECG monitors, ERP event-related potential EEG devices, and GSR skin galvanic response amplification monitors.

  Sister Liang put electrodes on him and put on a hood, which made him feel like he was back in that truck again.

  It’s been a month since I came back here, I really don’t know how the time is converted, the Liuguang City...

  Gu He was thinking, and told Sister Liang some key words, this is the channel to search for hidden memories:

  Streamer City, Fish Pond, Lorna Ludd, Lawton Ludd, Vivienne...

  "The heart rate is a bit fast." Sister Liang looked at the values ​​and lines on the monitoring screen, "Xiaohe, relax, relax again."

  Gu He took another deep breath to calm down his heart rate.

  "Xiaohe, have you watched any movies recently?" Sister Liang started chatting with him, but found that her heart rate had risen again.

   "Yes, a romance movie..." Gu He said.

  But Sister Liang needed him to be in an absolutely relaxed and calm state, so she immediately changed the subject.

  Even with the aid of technological equipment, hypnosis is not an easy task.

   Maybe the psychiatrists in Liuguang City can do it, but here, the psychiatrists and hypnosis are not as exaggerated as in the movies.

  The psychologist is not a mind reader, and the hypnotized person will not become confused.

  The brain is always awake, but the normal planning function is reduced, the mind is highly concentrated, the attention is highly selective, it does not respond to external stimuli, but it is extremely sensitive to all requirements of the hypnotist.

  Psychiatrists use this state to guide the conscious activities of the hypnotized person step by step.

   But first, the wisher can take the bait.

  Although Gu He really wanted to enter the hypnotic state immediately, it took a lot of effort just to relax.

  Sister Liang seemed to be casually talking to him about various topics, such as university, household chores, and things that had nothing to do with him but interested him. If it was an ordinary person, maybe ten minutes would be enough.

  But this time, it took Sister Liang more than an hour for Gu He to gradually enter a state of mind.

  On the brain wave monitor, the lines coming out are already in a hypnotic state.

   "Then, Xiaohe, let's look in your subconscious now." Sister Liang said in a soft voice, "Look at what memories and information you have forgotten, just stay relaxed and just listen to my words and imagine. "

   "Hmm..." Gu He responded, find out, I want to find out, I want to find out what's going on.

  "There is darkness around you, you are in the darkness, but you see a light ahead, you walk slowly."

  Sister Liang's voice was very soft, as if she didn't exist beside him, but a voice in his heart:

  "Step by step, there is a door over there, and the light shines in from behind the door, and behind that is a memory that you vaguely feel happened, but you can't remember.

  "You walked slowly, walked to that door, walked out..."

  Gu He closed his eyes, breathed gently, and felt that some hazy lights really appeared in front of him, a red door.

  He walked over step by step, walked out of the red door, and walked into the light...

  ……

  Your name is Gu He, and you are the only son in your family.

  You have been a well-behaved child since you were a child, with good academic performance, polite and well-behaved, and you don’t need your parents to worry about you.

  Kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school, high school, you have been admitted to the psychology department of a good university. When you were a student, you were also full of vigor and enthusiasm. You couldn't understand any old people, and you were full of hope for the future.

  After graduating from university and coming out of society, you have gradually become a salted fish, but through your own efforts, you have opened a psychological clinic, but in your heart, you always feel that there is something lacking, which is a dream.

  I don’t know when, you lost your dreams, you lost the ability to dream, and you can’t dream any more.

  It's not just a state of mind, you sleep without dreams.

  You are worried that something is wrong with your body, so you go to the hospital for various examinations, but none of the doctors can explain why you no longer have dreams. You heard that wolfberry water can soothe the nerves and help you sleep, so you start drinking wolfberry water.

  But your situation has not improved, the more you want to dream, the less dream you have.

  You can't sleep well every day, you feel empty in your head, and you slowly start to feel that there is nothing around you.

  You can’t see the world beyond your line of sight, not with images, pictures and other media, you can’t see it with your eyes, no one can see it, you don’t know if the world was created 5 minutes ago out, no one can know.

  You doubt more and more the essence of the existence of this world, you start to be suspicious, do you really exist?

  I don’t know when you became obsessed with the graphic of the vortex, circle after circle, as if telling the essence.

  You start looking for things with swirls everywhere, and you shoot them too, whether it’s hair, wires, water flow, antique patterns... as long as it’s a swirl, shoot it.

  On May 20th, when you were working on your computer, you opened your vortex research folder again.

  You look at pictures of swirls, and those graphics are spinning on the computer screen, circle after circle.

  Until you open a photo of a Klein pot, it is also a whirlpool, turn, turn, turn.

  The more you look at the Klein pot, the more you feel that you are also turning, the more you feel that the vortex in the screen really exists.

  You raised your hand and touched the vortex on the screen. You seemed to be shocked by an electric current, and all your nerves boiled. Everything becomes a vortex.

  You suddenly realize that you got into that Klein pot and rushed out again.

   Then, you open your eyes, really for the first time.

  You find yourself in a nutrition cabin, your whole body is soaked in nutrient solution, there are many wires connected to your head, and there are many such nutrition cabins around, but only you wake up.

  You discovered that you are a member of the "Fantasy Family".

  You have grown up in an illusion since you were born. Your name is Gu He.

  You stumbled and hurriedly left the basement of the Mirage clan. You found yourself in the wilderness. You didn’t know where it was. You walked a lot and met a group of people.

  Those people tell you that this is outside the city of Liuguang City, a "wild dog area" where wild dogs gather. .

  You just live in the wild dog area, day after day.

  Until, a kind person said that he could take you into the city, arrange your status and work for you.

  Although you were on guard, many people followed suit, and you finally decided to take this opportunity to have a look.

  You smuggled into Liuguang City in a large truck. In fact, there were no checkpoints on the road. You went directly to a place called Kabukicho Juhui Street, and you entered a game hall.

  The game hall is the site of the Game Gang, and the boss of the Game Gang is Brother Zhuang.

   They tempt you to play games, tempt you to spend money to pay debts~IndoMTL.com~ But you are different from other wild dogs, you have the insights learned in the illusion, you know this is a hoax scam, you are some Leeks, so you've been avoiding spending money.

  You also found a chance to escape from the game hall, but Brother Zhuang and the others watched you very closely, and anyone who tried to run was beaten violently.

  Another day, Brother Zhuang gathered you all together and said that you should pay off your debts, or sell you off.

  You had a conflict with Brother Zhuang, and you were beaten up by a muscular man from the Game Gang. You are in pain, and you already know that Liuguang City is not a good place. You start to miss the fantasy world, and you don’t want to be Ah Ming anymore , you want to be Gu He.

   Another punch comes down, and you lose consciousness.

  When you opened your eyes again, you forgot some things, you forgot the dreamless, vortex, fantasy family...

  You are not Ah Ming, you are Gu He, you are probably time-traveled, and 20% crazy.

  A woman named Caiyin appeared and said she was picking someone, so you decided to seize this opportunity to escape.

  You caught it too, but the woman told you:

  Come and be a cowboy with me, being a cowboy is definitely a good way out for young people.
