Chapter 385: Exchanging Secret (Part 1)

Kenny Lin said, "Nope."

Amalia chuckled, "Remember I mentioned I’d settle the score with you?"

Kenny Lin looked surprised, "Is that so? I don’t recall that. Are you sure you’re not mistaken?"

"No, I remember you accusing me of playing both sides against the middle. Now that everything’s over, we can discuss about it. If you don’t explain it today, I guarantee you won’t be able to leave here."

After Amalia finished her speaking, Kenny Lin then looked up at the sky calmly.

"What are you looking at?"

"Just checking the time of day and how much time I have left to live," Kenny Lin replied.

Amalia kicked him, "Stop joking around. Tell me honestly, how do you have the memories of when you were in the white clothes period? And why the you in white clothes period have no memories of you in black clothes period? If you tell me now, I’ll also share my secret with you."

Kenny Lin pondered with his fingers, wondering if the deal was worth it.

"You tell me first, what is the secret related to?"

Amalia remained calm, "It’s related to my life."

Kenny Lin agreed immediately, "Deal. So, who goes first? How about you?"

"No, you go first. I don’t trust you," Amalia said, showing her suspicion openly.

Kenny Lin pouted, "Wife, your words hurt me..."

Amalia sneered, "If I tell you and you say it’s not worth it, what should I do? I won’t tell you first because you have a lot of dark history, and hardly speak the truth. You only have one chance. If you don’t speak now, don’t expect me to tell you later."

"Don’t..." Kenny Lin sighed, "I was just joking. I’ll go first."

Amalia folded her arms on her chest and waited for him to speak.

"This story is quite long..."

"Then make it short," Amalia interjected.

"Alright, a long time ago, I fell seriously ill..."

"Long ago, how long ago?" Amalia interrupted him again.

Kenny Lin thought carefully for a moment, "Probably when I was one or two years old."

One or two years old?

Amalia seriously doubted if he was just making things up again.

"When I was one or two years old, I fell seriously ill, and this illness almost took my life away," Kenny Lin continued, "Fortunately, it didn’t succeed in the end. But I discovered that I seemed to have split into a second personality, with interests and hobbies that were completely opposite to mine."

"When I become the second personality, he doesn’t remember everything that happened to the main personality, but I have clear memories of when he appears," Kenny Lin said with a carefree smile, looking like he was weaving a story.

"Why did you split into a second personality? What happened at that time?" Amalia asked.

Kenny Lin shrugged, "I really forgot, I just know that it was related to the old lady."

The old lady should be Kenny Lin’s mother.

Amalia was suspicious, "Did you really forget about it, or are you just avoiding mentioning it?"

Kenny Lin’s expression paused slightly, then he smiled and said, "Baby, you’re so clever, you’ve guessed it all. I could say it, but shouldn’t you also tell me your secret?"

"Okay," Amalia decided to give a little sweetness to him, "The reason I want to go down is because I want to check if there’s a passage leading to the ocean under the lake. I want to investigate the cause of the mutations in the central disaster zone."

When he heard this, Kenny Lin’s handsome face showed clear displeasure, "I don’t want to know the cause of the mutations in the central disaster zone. I just want to know about you."

"Everything that happens now would lead to future Disaster. If we don’t find out about the cause now, we will all die in the future. Do you still want to hear it?" Amalia remained calm, she knew what to say to handle him.

Kenny Lin widened his eyes, "And then?"

Amalia said, "And then it’s your turn to speak."

Kenny Lin couldn’t believe it: "I said ten sentences, and you just said one?"

"If you don’t beat around the bush, you can also condense ten sentences into one. Do you still want me to continue?" Amalia pointed out the truth without reservation, she was unafraid that Kenny Lin would be backing out from the deal.

The bait had already been thrown out, and with his intelligence, he couldn’t possibly fail to connect the dots behind it.

Kenny Lin felt frustrated for a moment, "You always have a point. When I was one or two years old, I only remember one scene: it was the old lady who is holding a white rabbit milk candy and smiling as she handed it to me."

"It’s no wonder you like eating milk candy so much. What does this have to do with splitting into a second personality?"

"Because the old lady wanted to kill me."

Amalia’s pupils widened, she found it a little bit hard to believe what she had just heard.

Kenny Lin’s expression was too relaxed, as if he was talking about something trivial.

"Is what you said true? It’s not another joke, right?" Amalia asked again, still skeptical.

Kenny Lin tentatively asked, "If I were really joking, what would you do?"

Amalia kept a straight face, "I would kill you."

Kenny Lin trembled for a moment, "Okay, I was just asking. Of course, it’s true. But I really don’t remember what happened specifically. It was only when the second personality appeared that I realized there was a problem."

Amalia still had one doubt, "Then why did you hide the existence of the main personality from your family? Do you deliberately only let them know about the secondary personality?"

Kenny Lin shrugged indifferently, "I guess it just felt right subconsciously. There’s no need to expose the main personality to them, and besides, who cares? We’ve all come this far, and they prefer to see the secondary personality anyway."
