Chapter 63: Lending a Hand
At the Hotdog Bar, Sun Jack explained his current predicament to the group.
These people had been through life and death together several times, so Sun Jack decided to trust them—at least partially. He omitted details about being an ancient human and the space station but shared everything else.
“This is my problem,” Sun Jack began. “I’m facing two possibilities: either I’ve lost my memories, or they’ve been tampered with—or worse, my entire memory is fabricated.”
Sun Jack had come to terms with the situation: no matter what, he needed to figure out the truth about himself.
Four Ai was the first to speak. She exhaled from her e-cigarette, leaned slightly toward him, and teased, “So...who’s Hilda? Your ex-lover? That name works for both guys and girls, you know.”
“F*** if I know! If I did, why the h*** would I be here asking you lot?” Sun Jack snapped. The more time he spent around Four Ai, the more insufferable he found her—always prying into gossip and drama.
“I could have the Followers of God spread your information to see if anyone in The Metropolis recognizes you,” suggested the Father.
Sun Jack hesitated. The suggestion was indeed practical, but there was a problem—what if his memories weren’t fake? What if he really was an ancient human from a thousand years ago?
