Zack could see one thing more clearly than anyone, but I took a step back in fear and looked at him helplessly.
All my thoughts were laid bare in front of him, and he knew everything I knew and what I didn't know.
Seeing me like this, Zack closed his eyes slightly and said in a sad voice: "Sorry, I scared you."
I shook my head: "No, you didn't. It's just that I thought too much. You are the deputy commissioner of the police station at a young age. You are supposed to be good at this."
Zack turned his head and gave a hum. I asked curiously: "Zack, can you tell me more about the past?"
"Yes, but I have a meeting now. Can you go with me?" At this moment, I remembered that we were still on a job, and visiting Bently was something we did by the way.
At that time, I didn't know that Zack deliberately avoided me. He didn't reply to my text messages. He even pretended to ignore it when I wanted to learn about the past.
Zack took me to the City B Police Station. A group of people surrounded him as soon as he arrived at the door. He asked me to wait for him in the hall and left.
I lowered my head and drank the tea and played with my mobile phone. After half an hour, I received a call from Benjamin. I answered it in a daze.
He asked lightly: "Where are you?"
I replied: "Work."
"Working at?"
I hesitated for a while and said: "City B, on a business trip."
"Good for you. Why didn't you tell me you were leaving the city?" Benjamin said coldly and sarcastically: "What? Is your Prince Charming with you?"
I looked at the sky speechlessly, why should I report to him?
"Benjamin, you disappeared for three days without an explanation. Why should I report to you on a normal business trip?"
Benjamin directly ignored my question: "Give me the address."
I asked sarcastically as he did, "What? Are you flying over?"
He repeated: "Give me the address."
I was silent, and Benjamin said in an impatient tone: "I'm gonna find you anyway and when I do, you are gonna regret that you didn't give me the address when I was asking politely."
He lost his temper at me fiercely.
And before I could say anything, he hung up the phone directly. I was stunned and thought that he would not really fly to City B.
At that time, I underestimated Benjamin. He warned me what he would do and he was a man of his words.
Zack accompanied me to lunch after the meeting. After lunch, he took me on a trip in City B. He didn't mention our previous conversation. All the conversations were about trivial matters.
When it was almost evening, Zack took me to Bently. This time Bently was in the hospital.
He saw Zack and smiled kindly: "A professor asked me to fill in for his lecture so I wasn't here."
He specifically explained the reason to Zack.
Zack had a cold face when facing other people, and he shook his head: "Professor Bently, I sent you an email about Emma's condition. Can you see if you can hypnotize her to stimulate the nerves in her brain and let her remember the past?"
I stood beside Zack and asked nervously, "Professor Bently, is it possible for me to recover from this condition?"
"You have only lost your memory for a year and it happened indirectly, and according to Zack, you may have been hypnotized." Bently turned on a dim light to shine on me and asked: "Have you been seeing some scenes flashing in your head lately?"
I shook my head: "No."
And it was exactly why I didn't believe what Zack told me in the beginning.
"Lie down first, I will hypnotize you."
Bently reminded: "The possibility of recovery for the first time is unlikely, but it may help you to some extent."
I was disappointed and asked: "Can't you restore my memory?"
"Let's take it one step at a time."
I lied down with a nod, looking at the dazzling yellow light, and quickly lost consciousness after listening to the regular chimes in my ears.
The people I had met that year passed flashed through my mind. I saw a few familiar faces, Benjamin, Zack, Victoria, Bob and many strange faces.
Many things flooded my mind, but I couldn't remember a single one of them when I woke up. Zack asked me: "How was it?"
I shook my head: "Still blurry."
Zack stretched out his hand and rubbed my head as if he was relieved, and said with a gentle voice, "It's a good thing."
How could it be a good thing?
At that time, I didn't know what I experienced in the year when I lost my memory, but when I learned the truth later, it made me devastated.
Zack took me out of the hospital. Before leaving, Bently urged: "We can do it again if you have time, it might be useful."
When I got to the entrance of the hospital, I saw the falling snow in the sky and the thick snow on the road. I took out my phone to check the time.
