Miao Miao's voice came from behind him unhurriedly: "You will say yes, you know? So-called 'love brain' can make people's IQ drop and they can remember fewer things. The existence of a partner is like another brain that helps that person remember things."
"You mean you have a bad memory?"
The moment his left hand touched the railing, Lu Ye turned around and asked.
“No, I mean… you’re a hopeless romantic.” Miu Miu pointed at Lu Ye’s head.
"I don't know what you're talking about. If the so-called 'love-struck' person is really like you say, unable to even remember things, then what's the point of having a brain?"
“Of course,” Miu Miu said, “as long as he remembers to love his partner.”
Is it because he's been single for too long that he's lost his mind...? How pathetic.
We need to go back and review the surveillance footage.
Lu Ye ignored her and opened the door to the passageway, returning to the duty room.
While observing the surveillance footage in the meeting room, Lu Ye retrieved the surveillance records that she had missed when she went to the restroom and when Director Miao Miao called her away.
Unfortunately, nothing was found.
Lu Ye thought about it carefully. The important thing was not the meeting room itself, but the people who would come to the meeting room.
Although that was what he thought from the beginning, Lu Ye still harbored some "what if" thoughts. However, after a day, Lu Ye did not notice anything unusual in the meeting room.
However, he still decided to stay in the duty room overnight to watch the surveillance video, because he had only gone to the meeting room today and didn't know much about the other places. It would be good to watch the surveillance video in advance to familiarize himself with the area.
Since I have the "energy" enhancement, I only need four hours of sleep to ensure I'm full of energy.
"Oh, by the way, newbie, could you make me a cup of coffee? And get yourself one too. The coffee beans are on the second shelf of the lockers," one of the middle-aged prison guards said.
"Oh, sure."
Lu Ye got up and went to the locker, took out the tube containing instant coffee, and then picked up the electric kettle to start boiling water.
It's helpful to get along well with these prison guards.
Lu Ye squeezed the ten dollars in his pocket.
Lu Ye recalled that when he was in the observation and visiting room today, he saw the prisoner kissing his lover who had come to visit him.
According to prison regulations, this behavior is prohibited.
However, the visitor gave some benefits to the prison guards who were with him, so this behavior, which was originally prohibited, was tacitly approved. After all, surveillance is mostly used for investigation and evidence collection after an incident has occurred.
This ten dollars was the "hush money" given to Lu Ye by the prison guards in the visiting room.
This gray area rule applies not only between prisoners and prison guards, but sometimes also between prison guards themselves.
While Lu Ye was making coffee, the prison guards in the duty room started chatting again.
"By the way, speaking of that dead lawyer... his cause of death was rather suspicious."
"what happened?"
"According to the examination results, there seem to be ligature marks on his neck."
ligature marks?
The prison guard's words caught Lu Ye's attention.
"What? You don't mean someone hid in his car and killed that lawyer, do you?"
"I didn't say that. That lawyer died in a car accident right on the cross-sea bridge. The patrol cars around there passed by immediately, and no one got out of the car. Isn't that weird?"
"Come on, in my opinion, that guy got caught on some wire or something in the car, which caused that accident."
"By the way, young man, did you graduate from the state police academy?"
At this moment, the middle-aged prison guard asked Ye for directions.
"Ah, yes."
"Sigh, what a pity. There aren't many good girls in this prison, and the holidays aren't many either... You're quite good-looking, kid. Go visit the women's prison often; maybe those guys will fall for you."
“Haha, I have no interest in dating prisoners,” Lu Ye said. “Besides, I already have a wife.”
“Really? That’s good… The water’s boiled,” the guard said. “Thank you.”
"Trouble...what is it?"
"It's just for making coffee. You have an electric kettle next to you, don't you?"
"Electric kettle?"
"Yes, I just wanted you to make me some coffee, what's wrong?"
Lu Ye was taken aback.
The prison guard's words puzzled him.
Making coffee?
When did you say that?
Despite her doubts, Lu Ye picked up the electric kettle and prepared to do as instructed.
He thought to himself that it was necessary to maintain a good relationship with the prison guards, just like the ten dollars he had earned today…
After making the coffee, the prison guard thanked Lu Ye.
"Thank you, oh... it's so nice to have a new person."
Lu Ye stood there, somewhat at a loss.
Wait a minute, what am I doing standing here again?
"But that lawyer was very rich, driving a luxury car, but he died on his way out of prison. Would you say that counts as a work-related injury?"
"Work injury? The defense is all over, and the money has been received. How can it be considered a work injury?"
Because he didn't know what he was supposed to do, the prison guard's two sentences clearly reached Lu Ye's ears, forming two pieces of information.
"Wait, what are you talking about?" Lu Ye asked. "What work-related injury?"
"Hmm, didn't you hear? It was about that lawyer, the one who died in a car accident right after getting out of prison," the prison guard said. "What's going on? To get ahead in this prison, a pair of sharp ears is essential, hahaha!!"
"Oh, by the way, new guy, since you're keeping us company on duty, let's play some multiplayer games later. I recently got a PS3 from some guy! And don't tell anyone, or you won't be able to play anymore if the station chief finds out..."
"Oh, right, go make yourself a cup of coffee to perk yourself up. Wait ten more minutes, and we'll be done once Director Miao Miao gets back."
“Okay, where’s the coffee?” Lu Ye asked.
After a brief silence, the prison guards present looked at him with strange expressions.
"The coffee is right on the table behind you, and the electric kettle is there too. Didn't I just tell you? What are you doing?"
Did you... tell me?
Lu Ye thought back carefully.
That's right, first of all, I was watching the surveillance footage myself.
Then Director Muga Murat called himself out.
Then, the prison guards talked about playing PS3, then told me to make myself a cup of coffee, and finally told me where the coffee was...
Wait, how did I get back?
Lu Ye was stunned.
He asked the prison guard, "Um, how did I get back after the director called me away?"
"Nothing, I just walked back naturally. What, did you leave something behind?"
Did I walk back?
In other words, I've lost the part of my memory that I had when I came back?
Wait, let's go through it again.
I was watching the surveillance footage first.
Then he was called out by Director Muga Murat.
I don't know how I got back to the duty room, where the prison guards told me to make myself a cup of coffee.
Finally, they told me where the coffee was, as if I already knew where it was...
“Well, I’ve been researching reports on human memory behavior lately,” Lu Ye said. “Could you tell me what I’ve been doing since I got back?”
"Huh? It's nothing, we just chatted for a while and then I asked you to make me some coffee."
Could you elaborate?
The prison guards looked at each other, wondering what Lu Ye was up to. In the end, the middle-aged prison guard recounted the events in simple terms, though he did so in a very general way.
Lu Ye realized that something was wrong.
Why did I mention that I've been researching memory behavior reports lately?
But let's put that aside for now.
What the prison guard said didn't match my memory at all!
I had absolutely no idea what a chat cafe was!
Looking at the coffee on the table, Lu Ye noticed something.
There are many things missing from my mind...
My own memory... is messed up!
"Excuse me, I need to use the restroom!"
With that, Lu Ye rushed out of the duty room, leaving behind a group of bewildered prison guards.
"What... what's wrong with that guy?"
"The new guy is a bit strange..."
Inside the toilet.
Lu Ye was panting heavily.
My memory is wrong.
He quickly closed his eyes and tried to recall...
