The memories of all humanity are awakening, except for mine.

Chapter 105 The Scholar of Destiny

Jiang Chuan frowned as he looked at his phone screen.

According to Brother Li, he knew that Zhao Tianyu's influence on his divination had not yet disappeared. Although he asked Shen Jing to perform divination for him, he roughly understood that he should not receive a divination indicating bloodshed.

But Jiang Chuan never expected that the divination would indicate good luck and that something good would happen.

What a good thing?
According to Captain Chen, this mission seems to involve killing people; there's no way anything good could happen there.

What, now you kill people for gold coins?
Although Jiang Chuan inwardly complained, he was well aware of the strangeness of fate, so he stopped thinking about it, put away his phone, and hurried towards the location of the inspection team with Li Yi.

Li Yi noticed the change in Jiang Chuan's expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Chuan replied, "It's nothing."

He changed the subject: "Captain Chen said this mission is to assist the snipers in their assassination mission. We're going now, and we'll be taking action tonight."

"If you need anything tonight, contact me now."

Li Yi nodded, took out her phone, and sent a message to Song Xi.

Soon after, Li Yi asked Jiang Chuan, "Song Xi said she also wants to come."

Jiang Chuan responded, "Team Leader Chen's suggestion is to bring some people who are emotionally stable."

Li Yi said "oh" and didn't say anything more.

……

The office hall of the supervisory team.

It's no longer as lively as it used to be.

The office lobby was deserted; you couldn't see a single person at all.

Jiang Chuan recalled that on his way upstairs, there seemed to be hardly anyone in the entire office hall, let alone the inspection team.

"what happened?"

He was somewhat surprised, but he also had some guesses in his mind.

It was obvious that tonight's sniping mission was originally planned to be a collaboration between Chen Xingyang and Brother Yue Wen, but Captain Chen suddenly assigned the mission to him. Considering the situation in the office hall, Jiang Chuan understood that something big must have happened.

As soon as the two of them entered, Lin Ci, Liang Cheng, and Ai Zhe arrived as well.

Lin Ci asked, "What mission?"

Jiang Chuan shook his head: "I don't know the specifics yet either."

"..."

"Didn't you say we'd wait in the lobby?"

At this moment, the door to the weapons room was pulled open from the inside, and Yue Wen walked out carrying a sniper rifle.

Seeing the five people standing at the door, he smiled and nodded in a simple and honest manner: "You've arrived?"

Jiang Chuan said, "Team Leader Chen asked us to come and cooperate with the operation."

"Brother Yue, what's the situation with tonight's operation? We still don't know anything."

Yue Wen nodded and placed a file in front of them.

"Take a look first, and ask me if you have any questions."

As he spoke, he raised his wrist to glance at the time:
"It's seven minutes to four now, we still have plenty of time."

"We can make it if we leave before six o'clock."

Jiang Chuan and his team opened the document box and saw the papers, CDs, and some photos inside.

The photo showed a refined-looking middle-aged man wearing glasses, with a kind and sunny smile. After a few photos, they began looking at other information in the document.

Zhang Bowen, 34 years old, currently unemployed. Awakened memory: Farmer.

None of his family members live locally. He resigned in early July this year and has been unemployed ever since.

Immediately following was the police report from the Public Security Bureau.

Over the past two months, the reporting rate of police stations in various streets of Aoshi Asuka Ward has increased significantly, just like the situation faced by police stations in other areas.

However, the difference is that many people who come to report crimes, even though they are there to do so, cannot explain what type of case they are reporting once they enter the police station. They cannot say whether it is theft, robbery, assault, or hit-and-run. They simply cannot give a clear answer.

Because there are simply too many cases to handle, most of these unclear cases are ignored. After all, since the memory awakening began, many people have been in poor mental condition, and the police officers have seen far too many of these situations.

If it weren't for a person who tremblingly spoke out while looking at the words written on their palm, who knows how long it would have taken to discover the strangeness of this case!

The five words written on her palm were, "Find the child! Report to the police!"

She had completely forgotten that she had a child.

Following this lead, the Public Security Bureau began interviewing people who had reported similar cases and discovered that there were more than 17 identical cases.

These people who report the incident will occasionally remember that they had a child after encountering traces of the child's existence in their daily lives or after being reminded by others. However, this thought will quickly dissipate and they will forget about it.

Although these people who reported the case felt uneasy, and even most of the families of the missing persons suffered from insomnia and neurasthenia as a result, they simply couldn't remember it unless there was a special event.

Reporting a crime is one thing, but people's memories of when their children went missing are extremely vague. Sometimes they even ask the security guards who are questioning them, "When did I have a child?" But after saying that, they suddenly remember and break down in tears, only to quickly forget why they cried. It's incredibly agonizing.

Based on the clues found by the police department and the list of people obtained through cross-referencing, they quickly identified a man named Zhang Bowen.

The reason they're targeting him is quite simple.

A month after losing his job, around mid-August, Zhang Bowen won a big lottery prize. He bought a house and a car and squandered the prize money. But he immediately won another big prize. He was extremely lucky and spent his days and nights indulging in extravagance and revelry.

From discovering the missing person case to identifying the suspect, the Public Security Bureau mobilized a large number of personnel and completed the task in just three days.

Last night, the case was placed on the desk of Chen Xingyang, the head of the supervisory team.

During the day, Chen Xingyang and Yue Wen formulated a plan, notified headquarters, and received approval to proceed.

It was a fax from the headquarters' analytics department.

[Zhang Bowen's dream questionnaire records are fabricated. Based on the information currently available, his awakened memories should be those of a "fortune teller."]

[A fortune teller can seize a person's karma and alter their fate, to the point that the person whose karma has been seized is difficult to remember.]

Based on this person's current fortune, the chances of survival for those whose karma has been taken are slim, and a rescue operation must be launched as soon as possible.

This individual violated multiple laws, causing extremely negative social impact. Their methods were exceptionally cruel, and they showed no remorse whatsoever. To ensure the safety of the missing person, immediate execution is permitted!

[Danger Level: High.]

The last document in the document is an action plan drafted by Chen Xingyang.

The operation will begin at 8 PM tonight.

After reviewing the details of the case, Jiang Chuan and his four companions wore rather grim expressions.

Only then did Jiang Chuan understand why Captain Chen had emphasized the words "emotional stability."

Looking at that polite, smiling face in the photo, how could anyone know that this is such a heartless and insane monster?!
How could he be so inhumane?!

Ai Zhe gritted his teeth in hatred: "Damn it..."

"Why at night!?"

"I want to kill this beast right now!"
