They've gone invisible again.
Before anyone could think further, Lily Shirogane reappeared, her face still showing unease. "Please help me!!!"
An uncontrollable ability to become invisible...?
"The normal way to use Gaia Memory is to insert the memory into the interface before you can use the corresponding abilities, such as invisibility."
Philip's face was serious as he began to analyze the current situation, "Someone like you can't transform into a hybrid monster, the memories are still stored within you, and your abilities are out of control..."
"Perhaps it's because there's a problem with this memory, a defect."
"What should I do?"
Lily's face was full of worry. "I...I need to get back to normal as soon as possible."
“We need to figure out the manufacturing process of the memory. You probably bought this memory from the salesman in the black shirt, right?”
As he spoke, Philip looked at Lu Chen and the others.
Shotaro also looked at him with suspicion.
They had expected to get the answer they were looking for from Lily Shirogane, but...
"No, it was a gift from someone else." Lily Shirogane shook her head, and her body began to invisibly disappear again.
Sent?
Not purchased?
However, this did not stop them from continuing to suspect Lu Chen and his group. Therefore, Shotaro and Philip continued to watch Lu Chen and Saeko.
Lu Chen understood what they meant and scoffed, "Don't look at me. I wasn't the one who gave the Invisible Gaia Memory to Lily Silver."
And added:
"He's not a member of the organization either."
"Oh right, Ms. Lily Silver, please introduce yourself. I am an executive member of the museum organization that develops and sells Gaia Memory."
Lu Chen looked at Lily and smiled.
"Eh?"
Upon hearing this, Lily Shirogane was quite surprised.
Prior to this, she truly didn't know Lu Chen had this other identity. While Lu Chen was introducing himself, Philip and Zuo Xiangtaro were also observing the expressions of the others present, and then...
Wakana and Kujo Aya both remained calm, their expressions unchanged.
This also means.
They already knew about this.
Wakana knew that Shotaro and the other two had suspected something before, but Aya Kujo also knew...
It's somewhat hard to understand why they would approach Lu Chen and his group even knowing this.
However, that's not so important right now. What's important is...
"How can you be so sure it wasn't someone from the organization who did it?" Zuo Xiangtaro looked at Lu Chen with a serious expression, his eyes fixed intently.
At this moment, not only Philip and Shotaro were looking at Lu Chen with suspicion, but Saeko and the others also focused their attention on Lu Chen.
because......
Although the museum organization can now be considered to truly belong to Lu Chen and Saeko after Sonozaki Ryubei was defeated, even so...
Saeko, however, could not say for sure that the invisible memory inside Lily Shirogane was not sent by someone from their organization.
Under everyone's gaze, Lu Chen smiled slightly and slowly uttered a name.
"Isaka Mikuruo."
"You haven't forgotten him, have you?"
Terui Ryu, Shotaro, and the others' pupils shrank immediately. "You mean, that guy gave the problematic memory to Lily Shirogane?" Lu Chen nodded and then said:
"He's a bad guy, but you have to admit he's a very thoughtful guy."
"Because he was not satisfied with the power of a single memory, he modified his body and other memories, implanting those modified memories into other people's bodies. These memories absorbed the host's life force, and when the host died, the memory matured. Isaka Shinkuro could then obtain the abilities within these mature memories, making himself stronger."

Modifying memories, using other people's lives to help cultivate your own memories?
Even those like Shotaro, who had heard about this before, were still terrified when they heard it now, let alone Lily and Shirogane, who were hearing about it for the first time.
"so......"
"This memory chip within me..."
Lily realized something, and her originally beautiful, rosy face turned deathly pale.
"Yes, what's inside you is a memory modified by Isaka Shinkuro, so it can't be expelled from the body like a normal memory."
"Although Isaka Shinkuro is dead, the memory he modified is still working."
Lu Chen nodded, his tone calm, but the words he spoke made Lily Baiyin's face turn even more unpleasant.
"If that's the case... then isn't the method of expelling this modified memory from the body simply causing the memory's host to die?"
Philip frowned. Lu Chen did not deny it, which meant that it was indeed the case.
"How could this be!" Zuo Xiangtaro stood up excitedly, clenching his fists, and looked at Lu Chen expectantly: "What other methods are there?"
"You must know, right?!"
"Hey, watch your attitude." Seeing Shotaro's questioning look at Lu Chen, Saeko immediately said coldly. She didn't care whether Lily Shirogane lived or died.
But her husband was being questioned like this...
She couldn't accept that.
Shotaro Zuo......
Just an idiot detective.
What qualifications does he have?
Lu Chen waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care about such things. He explained, "I have a way to disable the problematic stealth memory within her, but the only way to remove it is through cardiac arrest." He then glanced at the anxious Lily and added, "..."
.........
"If you wouldn't mind having a memory device inside you..."
How could I not care about something like this?
Moreover, who knows if Lu Chen's statement about rendering the memory useless means it's permanently disabled or will start going out of control again in a few years...?
“I don’t believe it, there must be other ways, Philip!” Shotaro looked at Philip, wanting him to search, but found that his partner’s eyes were shining.
"You just said cardiac arrest, not that Miss Lily Shirogane died?"
Philip stared intently at Lu Chen and asked.
Lu Chen smiled. "So you noticed?" He glanced at Zuo Xiangtaro and said:
"I must say, Philip, you are indeed much smarter than some detectives."
?
"Isn't your 'detective' line a little too obvious?" Shotaro's lips twitched.
Realizing he was no match for Lu Chen, Zuo Xiangtaro suppressed his anger at being publicly humiliated and gritted his teeth, saying:
"So, what do you mean?"
Philip explained, "When a person dies, their heart stops beating, but the cessation of heartbeat does not necessarily mean death." Upon hearing this, everyone showed expressions of sudden realization.
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Since we have to kill her to extract the memory, let's use her death as a premise to figure out a way."
“The memory is not human after all, and it does not have such high intelligence. Its method of judging a person’s death is only based on the heartbeat. So let’s stop her heartbeat first, so that the memory will think that she is dead and leave her body.”
"In short, the process involves making Lily Shirogane appear dead to expel the memory, and then using medical methods such as electric shocks to restore her heartbeat."
Everyone was stunned. Zuo Xiangtaro's brain was a little slow to react for a moment, but good thing, there were people with quick minds here.
He looked at Philip and asked:
How feasible do you think it is?
Philip did not answer immediately; he looked dazed and kept muttering to himself.
It is clear that they are thinking and calculating.
After a short while, Philip came to his senses and looked at everyone with excitement, saying, "As long as the heartbeat can be restored in time, the success rate of this method is almost 100%."
"What are you waiting for?"
"Shall we start now?"
Akiko shouted quickly, and everyone nodded in agreement. However, Lily Shirogane, who should have been the most eager to do this, hesitated and said, "This... let's forget about it now."
Upon hearing this, everyone looked puzzled.
"why?"
She has an uncontrollable memory within her body that absorbs her life force; she should be worried!
