"Strictly speaking, it's knowledge! Yes! It's knowledge!"
"I should have known them a long time ago! I just forgot them after the brain was hit! As my body gets better, these insights are gradually returning... and they include some... the knowledge and insights about animism and poisonology that you just mentioned."
"So you just play by yourself?" Xia Yibing frowned and looked at a glass jar that contained a big black spider.
"Do you know how dangerous these things are?"
"I didn't know at first!" Griman raised his hand to swear, "I just... followed the guidance in my head and tried it..."
"At first it was the Qi and Blood Potion, then the Bone Strengthening Powder. I did realize later that the origin of this knowledge was questionable, but I need it! The locals are very hostile to me! I need to do this to fit in with them!"
The rejection should be the influence of the ancient witch.
Hitzfeld remembered what Marnie had said, that Geyeso warned the townspeople not to get close to Griman, and said that Griman was the incarnation of evil.
To some extent, what he said is not wrong.
Hmm...if he is not guessing blindly, then this ancient witch is quite interesting.
Then Griman began to explain the sheepskin. He said that it was hung there to dry after the students left. As for the mysterious symbols on it, he himself did not know what they meant. He just "naturally thought of these symbols in his mind" and then "wrote them down casually."
There was no flaw in his words.
This means that he really did lose his memory, which is incredible in itself.
"doctor."
Hitzfeld stood up and moved a little closer to the head of the bed.
"look at me."
"Look at my face."
"Tell me, do you remember anything?"
This is the last testing step.
One of the most effective methods for curing amnesia is "recalling memories through sight". The only person Grimm had ever seen in this town was her, Aisun Hitzfeld. She didn't believe that Grimm would have no reaction when he saw her face again.
She needed him to remember.
This is not only convenient for judging the crimes he has committed, but also related to how he lost his memory, why he came to the Arctic glacier, and why he rolled down the mountain.
The girl's face gradually became clear.
So white, so dreamy.
Griman stared at her face for a long while, and finally, under the gazes of the three people, he slowly shook his head.
"I do not remember……"
"I don't remember at all..."
"I don't think I've seen your..."
"right……"
"A girl as beautiful as you...it's impossible for me not to be impressed..."
A few minutes later, Hitzfeld and Xia Yibing came out and stood in the corridor talking in low voices.
"He didn't lie, and his spiritual fluctuations didn't change much."
"If this doesn't work, then we can only use radical means and try to enter his dream to check."
"What if it's not in the dream yet?" Xia Yibing asked.
“If there is no dream.”
Hitzfeld half frowned.
"That means he is 'complete amnesia'."
"It means he doesn't have amnesia."
"But I really lost some of my memories."
Chapter 24: Robo's Disappearance (Two in One)
With Hitzfeld's current level, as long as she had the materials, it would not be difficult to mix some developer, memory enhancer and other drugs. She found that the materials she needed were on Griman's desk, so she tried to mix the drugs on the spot and asked her two companions to control the "patient".
“You are committing murder!!!”
Griman was covered in vines - they grew from Heidi's fingers. The dark purple vines glowed slightly under the light of the fire, making the atmosphere even more eerie.
"I don't even know the person you're talking about! I'm innocent! I'm wrongly accused! Those kids can prove it!!!"
He kept struggling while being tied up, watching in horror as the incredibly pretty and petite girl poured some dark green solution into a beaker, and immediately a thick, strange dark green fog rose from the beaker.
My goddess...! Is she planning to let me drink this later? ? ?
Grimman was determined not to drink this stuff even if he died. Just kidding, he usually did experiments, but there were very few successful cases! He knew how difficult it was to mix potions. A little girl mixed a magic potion! Ha! He would definitely end up badly if he drank it!
But his resistance was doomed to be useless. Not to mention that Xia Yibing was guarding beside him, Heidi, the Ice Orchid Tree Man, was enough to completely suppress him.
"Okay... Heidi, help me pin him down next."
"no problem."
"You are committing murder...! I will sue you...! I will call the police...! I want revenge...!!"
"Then pinch his mouth and tell him to be quiet."
"I don't want to drink...! Help! Help... Guhe... Ugh——"
"He doesn't want to swallow it and is still spitting it out. Heidi, please pinch his nose."
"Ugh!!??? Ugh, Ugh, Ugh, Ugh!!!"
“…Gulp~Gulp~!”
"Well, he'll be dreaming soon."
After everything was over, Grimman was finally released and thrown on the bed. His eyes rolled back, an unknown liquid flowed from the corners of his mouth, and his body twitched from time to time, looking a little bit like a ghost.
But the potion did work, and he gradually closed his eyes and fell asleep. Large streams of green mist rose from his nostrils and ears, forming a wall of green mist above the room.
The next process was even simpler. The three of them examined the green mist in turn - it was actually a manifested conscious dream. They tried to discover the fears and secrets buried in the deepest part of the "patient's" heart, but in the end they found nothing.
This is really weird!
Xia Yibing sat beside them, staring in a daze.
These drugs are controlled substances in Port Wayne. Even serious criminals have to apply for permission to use them. The reason is that the drugs are too potent. Even after dilution, there is a chance that they can damage the human brain nerves and turn a healthy person into one with dementia.
The side effects are so strong, and naturally they are accompanied by extremely strong drug effects. This method can explore extremely deep nightmare memories, and many people themselves cannot remember the information clearly - the information that only exists in the "subconscious" can be reflected by the green mist.
Just like Grim Alex before, the black-skinned agent from the Southwest Territories.
He once took Sina's "holy communion", which blinded his spiritual senses. Not only did he forget this memory, he also ignored the fact that there was another consciousness living in his body, and thus suffered from extremely serious amnesia.
This is also amnesia, isn't it?
But in Grimm's case, the green mist can reveal the information he has forgotten. It can be seen that no matter what the reason for amnesia, the deep consciousness will remember something more or less, and there should be some clues left.
If we apply this to Grimman, that is - there should be at least some discontinuous stories in the Green Mist, about his childhood growth, youth struggles, and how he joined Eclipse. There should be these scattered fragments, right?
If you had left even one fragment like this, she wouldn't have been so surprised.
But the fact is that there is none.
Looking back at the Green Mist, the three of them could see roughly the same fragments, which were just how he was rescued by the people of Ice Lake Town and then ended up in the monastery, how he was ostracized by Geyeso, and how he struggled to fit in by recalling his knowledge and medical skills.
There is no memory of what happened before.
A complete blank.
"There are two possibilities," Heidi said. "The first possibility is that Hitzfeld has mistaken the person. This guy's name is just Grimm by coincidence. He is not an evil person. We have wronged him."
"It can be ruled out," Hitzfeld said immediately. "First of all, I'm sure I didn't recognize the wrong person. Secondly... even if I recognized the wrong person, even if he was another 'Dr. Grimman', how could he not have his previous memories?"
This is where the biggest doubt lies.
The medicine has no thoughts and does not recognize anyone. No matter whether you are innocent or guilty, you will have nightmares after drinking it, and the deep nightmares will inevitably include childhood memories.
If you don't have it, then it's abnormal. It means there's something wrong with you.
Even if you are innocent, you must have problems now.
"That's the second one." Heidi spread her hands, "He is the 'creator'."
"Creating humans?"
Xia Yibing was stunned, and reflexively her eyes turned to the side and fell on Hitzfeld's belly.
What are you looking at!
Hitzfeld noticed it immediately and glared at the woman fiercely, forcing her to look away with a red face.
"It's not the natural creation of humans," Heidi emphasized. "It's the forced shaping of the human body through some forbidden rituals. You should know this best, Hitzfeld."
This is true.
Hitzfeld took a deep breath and thought of his father, Coldis, and the mechanical kingdom he had built.
His mechanical creations, whether they were mechanical apostles or mechanical soldiers, were originally created through a large number of forbidden experiments.
She had also seen a clip of the experiment in the flashback. It was when Coldis was researching and manufacturing mechanical centaurs. He cruelly tried to combine flesh and blood with metal, and for this he slaughtered so many lives...
Oh……
She immediately closed her eyes and pinched her eyebrows with her right hand.
This kind of thing still... still can't think too much...
Back to this case, what Heidi means is... that the Grimm lying in front of us is actually a man-made person?
That is to say, he may not necessarily be the real Grimman, but he is not innocent either. He may have been copied by other evildoers who imitated Grimman's image through some kind of evil ritual?
Well……
This would explain why he had no previous memories, because they were not copied down at all, so they naturally did not exist in his brain.
The so-called amnesia was also an illusion. As a clone, an artificial man, he was just gradually accepting the transmitted knowledge.
and many more……
If this is the case……
Without making a sound, Hitzfeld quietly reached into his collar and pulled out the White Whale pistol from under his armpit.
Xia Yibing did the same. Not only did she hold a long Xia knife, she also pulled out a pistol from her holster and threw it to Heidi. The three of them silently entered a state of combat readiness.
Because it is obvious that if the truth is this, that is, the Grimman in front of us is a replicant, a man-made man, then a new question will arise, that is, who made him? And where is the person who made him now?
Put yourself in the other person's shoes. If it were me, and I created a clone, then the most likely reason why I allowed him to integrate into the local community as a doctor/teacher would be to observe the experiment.
Since it was an observation experiment, didn't that mean Grimman was always under the other party's surveillance?
Just like a little white mouse in a cage.
Then their act of entering the monastery is equivalent to entering a cage.
No doubt they would also be observed by that person.
"Not here!"
“It’s normal here too!”
Leaving Lily to guard the small stone house, the three of them used Heidi's vines to wrap around their wrists as a safety rope and explored the entire monastery while keeping a certain distance.
No abnormalities were found.
Even though Hitzfeld tried to use her left eye to look back, she did not find anything strange in the monastery or on Griman.
Everything in the flashback scene was normal. It was just Griman giving daily lessons to the children, teaching them some simple math addition and subtraction, formula tricks, teaching them Saray grammar, some simple modifiers, and so on.
Even if she sped up the progress of the retrospection, she would only witness the monastery's time going backwards, watching it go from dilapidated to renovated, returning to its glory when it was first built, and witnessing the old priest die of illness here.
There is no problem with this...
No watchers, no pretenders, no evil rituals, nothing.
To be honest, it is just the constant alternation of polar day and polar night.
Only the cold wind kept blowing.
