Chapter 245 Was it fake before? Is it real now?

Jiang Che looked at the two-meter-high wall, then glanced at his own tall figure.

Ding Ning, who was crossing the wall, kept waving at him, signaling him to go up quickly. He looked at the surroundings. On the wall on this side of the school, there was a series of black footprints, both large and small. It could be seen that quite a few people sneaked into the school from here.

"Hurry up!" Ding Ning was still urging, but Jiang Che did not move.

He was just wondering, is all this true?
Looking down and reminiscing, he could even remember everything now, such as his parents opened a steamed bun shop and he lived upstairs above the shop. Ding Ning was his childhood neighbor, and after her parents passed away, she worked part-time to pay for her studies. Jiang Che's parents would ask her to come to their house for dinner and help him with his homework.

It was with Ding Ning's guidance that he was admitted to Nancheng No. 1 Middle School.

Compared to the other memory, that memory seems blurry.

From childhood to adulthood, I have lived the same life day after day, taking medicine, undergoing examinations, and staying with a group of mentally unstable people. I have never left the gate of Hongzhu Mental Hospital.

Eat on time and sleep on time.

Living day after day, I couldn't tell how much time had passed. I only remembered that the clothes I was wearing were always half-short, or they were given to me by other mentally ill patients.

And now, he was standing under the wall, wearing clean, neat and well-fitting clothes.

In another memory, he had never been to school and had no idea what school was like.

Now, he stood under a wall, looking at the black marks on the top of the wall. This was how he entered the school.

"I won't wait for you. Just stay here. I don't know what's wrong with you today!" Ding Ning saw that he didn't move, rolled his eyes at him, then jumped into the wall and disappeared.

There were two voices in Jiang Che's head, one telling him that this was a trial and he would have to wake up after the trial.

Another voice kept telling him that what he was experiencing now was reality, and what happened before was just a long dream. Now that he was awake, he should return to reality, study and fall in love.

Was it false before? Is it true now?

Jiang Che stood in the corner, without moving.

He looked at the footprints on the wall. If the days in Hongzhu Mental Hospital were real, he was not unfamiliar with this series of black footprints. He could even outline the appearance of the school in his mind, and even knew how to get to his classroom and seat after climbing over the wall.

As far as Hongzhu Mental Hospital remembers, he had never been to school. He just learned some information through the TV installed in the lobby of Hongzhu Mental Hospital.

In comparison, the days in Hongzhu Mental Hospital seemed fake, because who would be unable to walk out of a small hospital for their entire life?
He now has memories of his home, school, and even information about his classmates. Everything seems real.

Jiang Che did not move, he still stood in the corner.

Ah Hua has talked about some key points that need to be paid attention to in illusions, such as there will be many places in the illusion that do not overlap with reality, the illusion will not change according to the actions of the characters, because the illusion is set by others, and abnormal behavior is the standard for breaking the illusion.

The illusion will always lead the person inside by the nose, making him move forward along the route set by himself.

If he doesn't follow the trajectory, the entire plot in the illusion will be stagnant.

This is the key to breaking the illusion deadlock.

Jiang Che also didn't want to believe that everything in front of him was fake. It was all too beautiful.

Although Ding Ning said something about being late, he didn't think being late was a big deal.

If I stay still here, the illusion will disappear.

Jiang Che looked at the black footprints on the wall reluctantly. In the other memory, he didn't know anything about the school. But in this memory, he knew that late students sneaked into the school from here.

"The student in front! What are you doing here!" An angry shout came from behind. Jiang Che turned around and saw a security guard rushing towards him with a stick.

A trace of confusion flashed across Jiang Che's eyes. Was the illusion still there?

……

"How long do you think it will take for him to wake up?" Ah Hua stood beside Ding Ning, looking at the crystal ball in front of her. On the crystal ball was a projected image. Jiang Che was taken to the Academic Affairs Office, still motionless. It could be seen that the confusion in his eyes had deepened.

"I don't know." Ding Ning shook his head.

She also looked at the scene in front of her carefully. This was a scene she had never seen before.

Is this the school for human beings?
"This is what I carefully selected. His life is not perfect, but I think it's pretty good." Ah Hua was holding a small flower in her hand. At the root of the flower, there was a human brain.

After humans entered the evil spirit copy, she began to learn everything about humans. She was good at illusion, and her way of understanding humans was to extract their brains, then take root and learn about their lives.

After understanding them, she felt that humans were very ordinary. Most of them followed a routine of studying, working, getting married, and having children...

The regularity made her feel that all human beings were carved out of the same template.

At most, there will be one or two people who make a comeback and rise to a position that everyone admires from among the ordinary people.

This was not an illusion, but she directly gave Jiang Che someone else's life, except that the protagonist was replaced by Jiang Che, and his childhood sweetheart was replaced by Ding Ning.

"He didn't get into a good university in this life, and his wife passed away shortly after giving birth to a child. He was just an ordinary office worker. But I think this person's life is more suitable for him." Ah Hua explained what he roughly understood.

She had forgotten the details and only remembered some vague directions.

That's why she thinks humans are so ordinary.

Everyone is on the same trajectory.

no big difference.

"That's it, it's pretty good." Ding Ning held her face in her hands. She watched the girl who had replaced her jump into the school without hesitation and sneak into the classroom.

Jiang Che was still standing at the foot of the wall when he was taken to the Academic Affairs Office by the school security guards.

"If this is an illusion, it would definitely not be able to come up with such a branching story." Ah Hua looked at Jiang Che who was taken to the Academic Affairs Office. "It just so happens that because this student saw others go through it, he also has a preserved memory."

The process of some things cannot be understood until you experience them yourself.

"Teacher, it's this child's problem. His mental state has not been very good in the past two years. He keeps talking about evil spirits and strange things."

"I'm sorry to cause you trouble." Jiang Che looked at his mother, who was bowing and apologizing to the school leaders.

"Go see a psychiatrist. The college entrance exam is coming up soon. It's not going to work if you continue like this." The dean sighed, seeming to know Jiang Che's situation.

Jiang Che was stunned. Mom actually knew all these things? She knew about my other memory?
