Maybe when you finish, I’ll remember everything.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Chuang nodded; he now fully believed Yu Dazhang’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were fake, how could he instantly know about the abandoned radar station the moment I mentioned Xiaofeng Mountain?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This proves his memory is truly recovering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once his doubts vanished, his speech quickened:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“After we reached the radar station, we observed the perimeter for over half an hour, then you told me to wait outside.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Until then, I still didn’t fully believe what you said.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I came with you only to shake you out of your unrealistic ideas.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then you entered the radar station alone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“About an hour later, you suddenly burst out from inside.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Seeing me, you threw a file bag toward me and shouted for me to run.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I saw over a dozen men in brown camouflage uniforms chasing after you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Each of them wore a camouflage face mask; before I could even react, they tackled you to the ground.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I had no time to think—I grabbed the file bag you threw and ran down the mountain.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Because I didn’t know the mountain trails well, I hadn’t gone far before they caught me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then something struck the back of my head, and I lost consciousness. When I woke up, I was lying beside the mountain path.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, Wei Chuang paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was observing Yu Dazhang’s reaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to Wei Chuang’s disappointment, Yu Dazhang showed no emotional response whatsoever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keep going—what happened after that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Dazhang smiled, as if Wei Chuang were telling a story unrelated to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I immediately went down the mountain and reported it to the school leadership,” Wei Chuang continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even the General Bureau was alerted; they immediately deployed police to search the abandoned radar station thoroughly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But we were too late—we found no trace of anyone, not even a single personal item.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Those people had cleaned the entire radar station before fleeing, leaving no valuable clues.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You saw what happened after that.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Because I took a student into danger without authorization and caused his disappearance, I was lucky to keep my uniform.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Wei Chuang had explained the general course of events.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t need details—Yu Dazhang only wanted to know the cause and outcome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did my parents know about this?” Yu Dazhang asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No,” Wei Chuang replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The school leadership feared damage to the school’s reputation and strictly forbade anyone from leaking the truth. Later, your parents came to the school many times asking questions, but no one dared tell them the real story.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The school was ruthless… Yu Dazhang couldn’t help cursing inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only because I came back—if I hadn’t, this would’ve just been buried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even my parents didn’t know my fate; it’s clear how strictly the school enforced its silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest was obvious without needing to think.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as the school learned I’d returned, they immediately sent people to clean up the mess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along with issuing my diploma, they even arranged my job.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were afraid I’d remember later and come after the school. By securing my job, they ensured I’d have something to lose if I did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a devastating move!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are bad people among the masses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder people say leaders don’t need deep expertise—just understand human nature, and you’ll rise effortlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Impressive. Truly impressive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even now that I know the truth, I have no desire to confront the school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mainly because they treated me well—they arranged everything decently. I simply can’t bring myself to accuse them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, given my relationship with Wei Chuang, I could never do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come to think of it, this whole mess was my own fault; the school had no choice but to stay silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, Brother Chuang, it’s late—I’m heading home.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d learned everything he needed to know; there was nothing left to say. Yu Dazhang wanted to go home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please... collect 6...9...books....!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait!” Wei Chuang grabbed his arm as he stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You haven’t told me what happened during those nine months.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Wei Chuang hadn’t mentioned it, Yu Dazhang would’ve forgotten entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People shouldn’t lie—once a lie is spoken, it’s easy to forget.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The advantage of telling the truth is that you don’t need to remember it afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Dazhang’s current situation was awkward—he’d told a lie and now couldn’t make it stick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Um…” he hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If I said I remembered nothing, would you believe me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No,” Wei Chuang shook his head, gripping his arm tighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Chuang, I really don’t remember,” Yu Dazhang admitted outright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I pretended to recover my memory just to get you to talk.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then how did you know about the abandoned radar station?” Wei Chuang stared at him suspiciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Dazhang had no choice but to keep lying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That was just a flash—I only remembered that much.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After much back-and-forth, Wei Chuang finally let go of Yu Dazhang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before leaving, Yu Dazhang went to the bedroom door and greeted Wei Chuang’s wife through it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he’d eaten their meal—he had to observe proper manners.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the way home, Yu Dazhang tried hard not to think about it; at times like this, it was best to clear his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he got home, he took a shower, chatted with his parents for a while, then returned to his room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His state was just right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lying in bed, Yu Dazhang’s mind raced, mentally replaying everything Wei Chuang had said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was me who dragged Wei Chuang to the Xiaofeng Mountain radar station.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The purpose must have been to investigate the series of disappearances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the question arose:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was reborn this year—how did last year’s me know about the series of disappearances?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And even if I knew the radar station was suspicious, I shouldn’t have gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t I remember how I died? To go back and die again—that’s how obsessed I must’ve been.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This life’s me knows how dangerous it is, which is why I chose to stake out the entrance of the first disappearance’s apartment complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Got it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I know where the problem lies… Yu Dazhang suddenly sat up, his face grim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My past self absolutely would’ve done this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reckless, stubborn, inflexible—even extreme—that was my past self.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least I didn’t go alone—I dragged Wei Chuang along. That’s already progress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Precisely because I knew it was dangerous, I didn’t let Wei Chuang follow me inside the station.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, my true rebirth date…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is 2013!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1181,"2026-06-20T14:22:46.062Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","a26d0d897a5f296650aed5257c7f4a7d6795fa0b6521fa84fab4ee1b7b8018c0","reborn-in-2014-i-am-the-king-of-criminal-investi-chapter-68","reborn-in-2014-i-am-the-king-of-criminal-investi-chapter-66",763,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-in-2014-i-am-the-king-of-criminal-investi-cover.jpg"]
