Chapter 185 Modifying Memory (Please vote and collect)
"Thank you so much for today."

"fine."

“I don’t even know how to express my gratitude.”

"You're welcome." Irae pushed his glasses and said, "If you trust me, I will always help her. You don't have to worry."

When Kaori took Rena away from the corridor, Iraeto was about to turn around and go back to the laboratory, but he found Qinghai Chuantang standing not far away, and even waved at him.

After entering the laboratory, Qinghai Chuantang went straight to the point: "Doctor, do you know the proverb 'the canary in the coal mine'?"

It means a sign of danger.

Canaries are more sensitive to toxic gases than humans.

In the past, miners took advantage of this characteristic and put canaries in cages and took them with them when they went down the mines.

When the canary stopped chirping, it knew a landslide was about to occur and it quickly escaped.

"I know." Ira Jiangdu pushed up his glasses and said, "My grandfather worked in the coal mine, so I have been close to canaries since I was a child."

"Is it Iwami Ginzan? I saw in your resume that you were from Shimane Prefecture."

Looking at the information on the phone, he pretended to be surprised and said, "It's really rare. He was admitted to a medical university at the age of 25."

Yiliang Jiangdu stood up, walked a few steps to the side, and said with his back to her: "Because I dropped out of high school and took a detour."

"I see. Then why do you want to be a psychiatrist?"

"To save the weak." Iraeto turned around and smiled, "Especially to save patients who have suffered mental trauma."

“How do you save patients?”

"what?"

"I don't think that mental trauma can be healed. For example, how did you treat Rena Yahara's illness?"

After hearing this, Yiliang Jiangdu couldn't help but laugh.

It turns out that he was deliberately using provocation.

In response, he said: "No matter what you ask me, I can't reveal the patient's secrets. If you want to ask about the standard treatment for PTSD, it is mainly psychological counseling."

"The idea that mental trauma can be healed simply by listening to people talk sounds like a dubious religion." Qinghai Chuantang found a seat and sat down.

“Naturally, there are other treatments.”

"For example," Qinghai Chuantang pointed at his head and said, "Modify memory?"

Purposefully implanting or erasing memories.

In the United States, research has successfully eliminated PTSD memories by removing specific proteins.

After Yiliang Jiangdu laughed a few times, he sat back in his chair and said, "You don't mean to say that her memories of her previous life were manipulated by someone, do you?"

Qinghai Chuantang looked at him: "If that's the case, everything makes sense."

After that, she stood up, turned her back to Irae Watari and said, "But in my opinion, this is just a bad science fiction."

“This isn’t science fiction!”

Iliang Jiangdu stood up instantly, and suddenly raised his voice, his tone also became a little hurried: "The experiment on mice has been successful."

Seeing Qinghai Chuantang looking at him, he lowered his head and lowered his voice instantly: "Whether it can work on humans requires further research."

"As expected, you have done research at the East London Medical University. You know a lot about it."

Qinghai Chuantang looked down at the canary in the cage, smiled slightly and said, "Its call today is particularly beautiful."

The answer to ideal treatment is the same for physicians in any department.

That means the patient recovers completely and never comes to the hospital again.

So, is there a situation where doctors don’t want their patients to get better?
In order to solve this mystery, Qinghai Chuantang came to the Yahara family.

However, Kaori refused to cooperate with the investigation.

"Don't you want to solve the mystery of your past life's memories?"

"Doctor Yiliang also said that we just need to take good care of her."

"Don't you think you need another opinion?" After saying that, Qinghai Chuantang took out his medical license.

Sure enough, those who can make fake certificates are so arrogant.

After obtaining consent, Qing Haichuantang came to Rena's room again, but this time his identity was different.

"Last time I told you that there was a boy who had the memories of a pilot who died on Chichijima. Later, he went to Chichijima with his parents to lay flowers, but after he grew up, he no longer recalled the memories of his previous life."

"But it is said that he hopes to be a pilot in the future."

With the beginning, the rest of the development will be narrated by Rena herself.

"The first thing I recall is the woman's face and the warehouse, then the iron tower, the yellow blast furnace, the shovel, and the name Xiaoya."

"From the tower, where is the blast furnace?"

"right."

"What's on the left?"

Rena suddenly fell silent and did not answer.

"There is a warehouse. Where is the door to the warehouse entrance?"

"The window is diagonally on the right, and the door is at..." She seemed to have forgotten something.

Qinghai Chuantang nodded gently and said, "I understand. Let's stop here first."

After going downstairs to the living room, she found Kaori.

"I want to confirm one thing. Have you been accompanying your daughter to Dongli University for psychological counseling?"

"I went with her at noon today. I've been worried about her since I read the report."

"What about before?"

"At first, I accompanied her to receive psychotherapy with Professor Fuyushima. But since it was changed to Dr. Ira, she basically went alone because Dr. Ira said it was better this way."

Because Irae Wataru was always present when Fuyushima Chiyuki was doing the consultation, so after the professor resigned, Dr. Ira was the one doing the consultation instead.

In the magazine interview opened on the table, you can see some personal introduction about Kaori. She graduated from Nacha Girls' High School.

“My father was frequently transferred for work, so when I was in high school, I lived in Shimane.”

岛根
I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or fate?
After leaving the Yahara family, Qinghai Chuantang brought the canary in the cage to the door of Fuyushima Chiyuki's house.

He pressed the doorbell, and when there was no response for a long time, he walked in.

I saw several newspapers stuck on the mailbox, and it was obvious that he had not been home for several days.

Qinghai Chuantang was walking nearby with the cage, and suddenly somewhere, the canary stopped singing.

Chiyuki Fuyushima, 64 years old, burned charcoal at home and left a suicide note.

If it was charcoal burning, the cause of death would have been carbon monoxide poisoning, but the report clearly stated that it was a myocardial infarction.

The lungs inhale almost no carbon monoxide.

It was said that he had suffered from heart disease for many years and didn't have much time left.

The time of death was estimated to be three days, which was the day after the murder in the previous life was reported.

Next to the suicide note, there was a video of psychological counseling.

After obtaining the patient's consent, Professor Fuyushima recorded a large amount of consultation content and used it to publish research reports.

And this psychological counseling video is the key to solving this mystery.

Rena's memories of her past life are flat.

She knew what was happening on the right side, but not on the left.

If it is something you have actually experienced, the synapses related to the memory will combine and awaken the subsequent memory.

But Rena's memory seemed like a cut image.

"This will be helpful for your own treatment and our future research. What we discuss here today cannot be leaked."

"Ok."

"You said before that you wanted medicine to help you sleep, right?"

"Yes."

"My classmate, do you have any worries about further studies?"

"I have no worries." The girl continued to move her hands, "Because that person will help me choose the future path."

"What about your personal life? Do you have any troubles?"

"No, I was just too excited and couldn't sleep well."

The shadow was just right, slanting to cover most of the girl's face, making it difficult to see her features clearly.

The girl continued, "There is nothing more exciting in this world than committing a crime."

"crime?"

"I have killed someone before, but that person asked me to do it. I was only responsible for drugging people, so it was easy."

The girl suddenly smiled brightly and said happily, "Xiao Ya didn't feel any pain either."

"Don't joke around."

"I'm not kidding. Doctor, I'm telling the truth. I'll do whatever that man tells me to do."

After saying that, the girl seemed to suddenly become playful, tilted her head and looked at Fuyushima Chiyuki and said with a smile: "Do you want to know who it is? If you can really keep a secret, then I can tell you."

One patient told me that she had killed someone.

As a doctor, I needed to maintain confidentiality, so I did not call the police.

But as time went by, I began to wonder if this was the right choice.

In order to forget the pain, I chose to devote myself to studying how to modify memory.

Before resigning, I conducted a memory transplant experiment on Rena Yahara in order to test the results of my research.

The reason for choosing the content of confession of murder is that the more shocking the memory is, the more likely it is to be remembered.

I am a selfish doctor who felt deeply responsible, so I chose to die.

The name signed is Chiyuki Fuyushima.

Perhaps because of the progress of the times, the contents of suicide notes are printed instead of traditional handwritten.

This makes people wonder, if they have thought about death, why would they still have the mind to do something so seemingly calm?

the next day.

Qinghai Chuantang came to the laboratory again and saw Yiliang Jiangdu who was sorting his belongings.

"Are you going to London to attend the Society tomorrow?"

"Yes, I am very busy now."

"Did you know that Professor Fuyushima passed away?"

"I heard about it." Iraeto paused and said, "In fact, as long as he continues to receive treatment, he can live a long time. It's really a pity. As a researcher, I will inherit his legacy."

"Doctor Yiliang, can you give me some treatment before I leave?"

She said with a bit of distress: "There is a memory that I really want to forget. Doctor, you should know how to modify the memory, right?"

Irae Watari paused and said, "That belongs to Professor Fuyushima."

"No, Professor Fuyushima is against memory modification. It can even be said that he is very opposed to doing experiments on memory modification. I have read all his papers, so I know it very well."

So, why did he say in his suicide note that he had personally modified other people's memories?
The answer is simple.

Because that suicide note was written by someone else.

"That person is you, right?"

"Why would I do something like that?"

"Because you were the one who killed Professor Fuyushima."

When he first arrived here, Iraeto said that he was in college, preparing to learn the society, but he had the car keys in his hand.

As soon as I got closer, the canary suddenly stopped singing.

Professor Fuyushima was a noble person. He was very angry and scolded Iraeda for using the psychological counseling records without permission.

"But if this experiment succeeds, many people can be saved."

Fuyushima Chiyuki slammed the table, furious: "How dare you say that? What do you think of the patient! Modifying memories should never be done!"

Chiyuki Fuyushima was so angry that she fell ill, and died because Iraeda chose not to help her.

Afterwards, Iraeto faked his suicide.

There was almost no carbon monoxide detected in Chiyuki Fuyushima's lungs, which meant that he had already died before the charcoal was burned.

"As long as the police investigate the professor's home, they will be able to find your fingerprints, right?"

"Even so."

Iraeto looked at his hands, then walked to the cage, looked at the canary inside and said, "But I've been to the teacher's house countless times."

Qinghai Chuantang took out his cell phone from his pocket.

After refreshing the text message interface several times, new messages finally appeared.

"Before she got married, Yahara Kaori was called Kamiya Kaori. She lived in Shimane when she was in high school."

After saying that, Qing Hai Chuantang looked at him and said, "At that time, she was followed by a stalker. Doctor Yiliang, that stalker was you."

The person who called the police at that time was Kaori, but she only received a love letter, but she said that the other party was a stalker.

Because he is the type I hate, and I don't want to be entangled with him, so.
The love letter was also torn to pieces by her.

"You dropped out of high school because of the police report, right? Fate is really amazing."

Twenty-four years later, I met the person I once loved at Professor Dongdao's place.

"She accompanied her daughter to the treatment, so you developed a distorted feeling for her daughter."

"No!" Iraeto denied loudly.

When they met again, he was shocked and a little surprised.

The other party did not react at all, as if he remembered nothing.

"So, you did all this just for this?"

"What do you know!" Iliang Du shouted at her.

Those who were hurt still cannot forget it and are in endless pain.

But the person who hurt others did not leave any memory and lived happily.

This is a typical state of PTSD.

“I think this is an opportunity given to me by God.”

Ira Jiangdu said, clenching his fists: "The experiment went smoothly. I finally confirmed that my research has development prospects."

"Modifying memory can save patients with depression and PTSD. This new treatment method will attract worldwide attention."

After saying that, Iraeto suddenly knelt beside her and grabbed her sleeve.

As if begging, he said, "Please let me go. Otherwise, a large number of patients will lose the opportunity to be liberated from the shadow of pain. I did this to save people with a painful past."

"Stop lying."

There was no trace of emotion on Qinghai Chuantang's face.

She looked at him and said, "What you did is not treatment at all. The memory you implanted in Rena was to continue to treat her. The woman who once rejected you now comes to you as a doctor for help. You hope that she will keep begging you."

"But your experiment was not successful."

Ira Jiangdu's face was filled with shock and disbelief.

"No, it's impossible to succeed."

Qing Hai Chuan Tang stood up, walked to the side and said: "Rena is just pretending that her memory has been modified."

"what?"

Rena was just angry that her mother was always busy with work and her father was concentrating on her sister's judicial examination.

The same is true when it comes to birthdays.

She just wanted to be alone for a while, with the lights off, even if it was just for a little while.

It doesn't matter if it's a cheap cake, she wants to eat it with everyone.

But
Rena didn't expect that things would get so serious.

"As parents, they keep throwing things onto other people. They sent me to the hospital because they thought it would be most effective to leave it to a specialist. Mom just didn't want to listen to me!"

Kaori, who was outside the door, was actually listening to all of this quietly.

"Your world is more than just this family. You can survive even without relying on your parents."

"sorry"

It is indeed possible to modify memory, for example, there are cheats like Qinghai Chuantang.

But the experiments that have been done on mice nowadays can only evoke positive memories.

"You are trapped in your own world and too confident in your own theories. That kid is one step ahead."

Iraeto seemed to have gone crazy suddenly. He picked up the seat cushion and smashed it several times to vent his anger.

He wailed in pain again, and fell onto the table in the middle, crying bitterly.

"I say, if Kaori hadn't accused you or laughed at you at that time, what would you do now? You definitely wouldn't have your current position and research achievements, right?"

Irae Jō looked up.

"It is that painful memory that has made you who you are today."

Iliang Jiangdu grabbed the cage and looked at the canary inside, seeming very reluctant to leave.

"If you are so worried about the canary, then let me take it away. The prerequisite is that you answer my questions."

Iraeto nodded slightly.

"Tell me the name of the person who ordered the woman in the videotape to kill someone. You should have taken over when Professor Fuyushima resigned."

Afterwards, Qinghai Chuantang took the canary from Iraedo and the one he bought, along with the cage, bird, and feed, and gave them to Ninomiya Tsukimi.

In her own words, it would be boring to live alone, so it would be better to have two more companions, and you can also teach them to talk.

The canary in the cage is very cute.

After confirming that it was a canary, Ninomiya Tsukimi said, "The only ones that can talk should be parrots and mynah birds, right?"

"What if they are geniuses?" Qinghai Chuantang laughed.

No, the canary would not speak, Ninomiya Tsukimi was very sure of this.

Obviously, she believed that the other party was trying to deceive her.

If Qinghai Chuantang knew what the other party was thinking, he would definitely cry out that he was wronged.

After all, the canary in "Rozen Maiden" can speak. So the saying "canary can speak" is correct.

Obviously, this is a game of words.

This happened to be her favorite and most common trick.

Those who were hurt still cannot forget it and are still in great pain.
