Principal Zhang beckoned her in. âStudent Tan Rou, come in and say a few words to your old friend!â
Tan Rou looked at Principal Zhangâs silly expression and wanted to flare up. âPrincipal Zhang, I still have to go to class. If you really donât have anything else to do, go run around the field. Donât make me come over for tea with others. My time is very precious. I canât waste a single minute.â
âAll, arenât you happy to see your old friend?â Principal Zhang asked in confusion.
âThese masters said that they were your good friends from many years ago and asked me to call you over. They also said that you would be very happy to see them.â
Tan Rou said coldly, âPrincipal, youâve been deceived by these old things. I wonât be happy to see them. Instead, Iâll be very angry.â
Professor Wu sat in the crowd. He didnât even dare to look into Tan Rouâs eyes. He didnât want to come over today. If those old fellows hadnât dragged him over, he wouldnât have gone out at all.
When Zhu Sheng saw Tan Rou, he immediately ran to her. âRourou, 1 finally see you again. Seeing that youâve returned to normal, Iâm so happy.â
âSo, do you know who tampered with my machine back then?â Tan Rou asked, feeling disgusted by his words. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Zhu Sheng was extremely embarrassed. âXiao Rou, Iâm sorry. Liu Xing was the one who did all those things back then. She asked me to tamper with your machine. If I donât destroy it, she willâ¦â
âShe wonât give you money, right?â Tan Rou finished the second half of his sentence for him. âIf you want to earn more money, you have to work with Liu Xing, right?â
Zhu Shengâs expression turned ugly. Everything was done by Liu Xing. He only changed a few pieces of data and changed Tan Rouâs memory. He didnât do anything too serious. However, according to the law, such an act was an attempted murder.
He was old, and the police allowed his family to bail him out. However, the police were still investigating other evidence. If there was any more evidence against him, he would be in jail.
Zhu Sheng was old and definitely couldnât stand prison life. Moreover, he couldnât go to prison. If he went to prison, what would happen to his reputation and money?
âTan Rou, I treated you the best when you were young. At that time, you didnât have food because you didnât complete the memorization mission. I secretly gave you a few meat buns. Donât you remember?â Zhu Sheng recalled what happened back then. âI taught you computer skills. Have you forgotten?â
Tan Rou pointed at her head and said, âIâm really sorry. Iâve injured my head and I donât remember much. Itâs useless even if you come to me nowâ
An old man with curly hair said. âTan Rou, itâs already been so many years. Youâre not injured now. Why canât you just let it go?â
âWho are you?â Tan Rou asked. âWhy should I listen to you?â
The curly-haired old man was angered by her. âTan Rou, what kind of attitude is this? Iâm your elder after all. Why are you talking to me in such a tone?â
âIâm sorry, I really donât know you. Iâve forgotten about the past,â Tan Rou said in an unfriendly tone. âI donât know who you are, and I donât want to know who you are as well.â
Another bespectacled old man said, âTan Rou, forget it. Old Zhu didnât do it on purpose. He was just blinded by money. Moreover, Liu Xing has already been arrested. If you want to settle the score with her, hurry up and find her.â âForget it?â Tan Rou was very angry. âWhy donât you lie down under that machine and try? As long as you dare to lie under that machine and let me collect your memories and data, I promise to forgive him.â
Everyone in the laboratory knew the danger of having their memories modified. If they were not careful, they would become a fool.
âNo need⦠My memories donât need to be altered.â The old man stammered.
The principal finally realized that something was wrong. He put on a serious expression and said, âStudent Tan Rou, since youâre done visiting your friends, you should go back to class.â
Tan Rou smiled. âPrincipal, Iâm not done yet.. Why should 1 go back now?â
