Told You I Can Turn Back Time
Chapter 79 - 79 79 Memory

79: Chapter 79: Memory 79: Chapter 79: Memory Tian Jizi looked at Lin Xing with a kind face and said with a smile, “The first time I met you, you were just a kid, right?

Your personality is completely different now.”

Number Four’s gaze became sharp, “The Xingxiao Sect again?”

Tian Jizi smiled faintly, “Did you think the Sect Hierarch only found out about you recently?

Ten years ago, he had a premonition of your existence and sent me to find you.”

Number Four exclaimed, “Ten years ago?

But how did you come over then?”

Tian Jizi laughed, “Who told you…

that we are from the Mirror World?”

“I and the Sect Hierarch are both from this world.”

“We simply used a door foreseen by the Sect Hierarch ten years ago to go to the Mirror World.”

Number Four frowned, “Are you talking about the incident in West Sea City ten years ago?”

Wan Lan thought to herself, “In August ten years ago, West Sea City had a major serial robbery and murder case.

That should be officially recorded, the first occurrence of a door event.

Is this old man telling the truth?

Did he really go to the Mirror World so long ago?”

Tian Jizi nodded and continued, “Ten years ago, the Sect Hierarch suddenly changed, claiming he had gained the ability to foresee the future and planned with me to travel to the Mirror World.”

“I didn’t believe him at first, but after he led me into making a large fortune through betting on sports and the lottery, I realized his ability might indeed be real.”

“And before going to the Mirror World, he gave me a task: to find you and send you to the orphanage.”

Number Four said coldly, “What about my parents?”

Tian Jizi replied, “Parents?

When I found you, you were already a wandering street orphan, and I did not see your parents.”

Number Four insisted, “Impossible.

I remember having parents.”

Tian Jizi said thoughtfully, “You mean your memory has your own parents?

Have you ever considered that your ability might not be the time reversal you think it is?

Your so-called memories don’t necessarily represent reality.”

Seeing Number Four frowning, Tian Jizi explained with a smile, “In my view, your ability is very similar to that of the Sect Hierarch.”

“He believes his ability is to foresee the future.”

“Whereas you believe your ability is time reversal.”

“But in my view, both of you are wrong…”

Tian Jizi looked at Lin Xing almost fervently, “Your true ability should be memory transfer, sending your current memories to your past self and overwriting past memories.”

“This has given you an illusion that you have the ability to foresee the future, or that you have experienced time reversal.”

“But what you have actually been doing is transmitting information to the past, causing changes in what has already happened.”

“And because both of you exist at the same time, you’ve influenced each other.”

“For instance, in your case, your future self has covered your present self with memories, giving you recollections of your parents, but because of the Sect Hierarch’s interference, changes occurred, and he had me send you to the orphanage, resulting in a conflict between your memories and reality.”

“With both of you overlaying your current memories onto your past selves, the process of changing history has led to more and more discrepancies in your memories.”

Number Four furrowed his brow, “Nonsense.

I clearly remember my childhood…”

He stopped mid-sentence, like a jammed machine.

Tian Jizi smiled, “Nonsense, perhaps.

Many people have different guesses and interpretations about your abilities, and this idea of memory transfer is just what I believe.”

“But why did you stop?

Can’t remember now?

Or isn’t it clear?”

“Even if you don’t agree with my conjecture, you must have recognized that your ability greatly affects memories, haven’t you?

Excessive memory transfer is starting to blur your childhood memories.”

Number Four stared at Tian Jizi, pondering something.

Yet, Tian Jizi continued to smile and say, “With each activation of the power, your past self is being overwritten by the memories from your future self.”

“Memory significantly determines the changes in personality.”

“Lin Xing, the changes in you, the changes in historical past, the contradiction between reality and memory, they all stem from alterations in memory.”

“You must learn to control your own memories, knowing which are transmitted from the future, which are your real experiences, which are necessary for you, and which can be discarded.”

“Even to recover your own overwritten memories.”

“And the solution cannot be found in this world; you should go back to the Mirror World to look for it.”

“Find the technique to control memories.”

Listening to the conversation between the two, Wan Lan, who stood aside, felt increasingly uneasy, as if she were witnessing an exchange between two psychiatric patients.

At that moment, Tian Jizi suddenly pulled out a remote control.

“Goodbye, Lin Xing.”

“I hope that the next time we meet, you will have mastered your own memories and cured your own troubles.”

“Only then can we move on to the next stage.”

With his fingertip pressing a button on the remote, a spark erupted from the mansion.

The next moment, a cataclysmic explosion engulfed the entire estate.

…

When Lin Xing came to his senses, he found himself sitting on a plane bound for abroad.

But soon, a blaze swept through the plane, engulfing him once again.

When he regained consciousness again, he found himself sitting in the airport’s waiting lounge.

Looking at the time, Lin Xing realized it was five hours earlier than when he had met Tian Jizi at the estate.

These consecutive time reversals brought him back more than five hours.

Rubbing his head, he muttered, “Is he making me reverse time continuously with repeated attacks?”

“But to do that, he must be able to pinpoint each moment I’ve reversed time, right?

To continuously attack me, right?”

“How is he doing it?”

“Can he keep watching me?”

At that thought, Lin Xing suddenly had a premonition and turned to look at Wan Lan and Si Yunfeng beside him.

If anyone could be observing him all the time, then these two people beside him were certainly capable.

And considering the Xingxiao Sect’s infiltration in the present world for many years, the existence of a traitor seemed quite normal.

“But even if they could observe me at all times, they would at most know my location and where I would go.

How do they know the moment I am reborn and how then do they attack?”

Looking at the two before him, a surge of murderous intent suddenly rose in Lin Xing’s heart: “Might as well kill them both and then go see Tian Jizi again to see if there’s a connection…”

This was the killing intent honed from years of life-and-death battles on the battlefield, almost instinctively rising from his heart.

But almost the instant this thought surfaced, Lin Xing suppressed it.

He silently admonished himself, “No, I can’t do this.”

“Lin Xing, get a grip, this isn’t the Mirror World battlefield, don’t bring those habits here…”

While these thoughts circled in his mind as he repressed the murderous intent, he suddenly looked at Si Yunfeng beside him with a strange curiosity.

At this moment, Si Yunfeng’s complexion turned pale, a visible nervousness appearing on his face.
