The white light surrounding each pa.s.senger standing on the jet black background was as if each of them were true stars in the sky. Each of them seemed to shine with their own light.

The reason why even Gu Qianxue, who could not see, had to wear the dark gla.s.ses given by Major General w.a.n.g was because the problem was not looking at the light itself. The problem was that when the light particles touched one"s body, it began to automatically eliminate memories. The gla.s.ses were a high tech device that reflected certain light waves within a small range around the person wearing them.

"False stars eh... Now I understand where its name comes from." Shen Xinya whispered softly, she too seemed enchanted by the sight and her gaze seemed unable to tear herself away from the scene.

Xie Feng nodded but said nothing.

Although the sight was beautiful, he knew that the effect caused by such a beautiful sight was, to say the least, ugly.

Just as the city lights looked beautiful from a high view like on the airplane, the more one knew about this project, the less one would think it was pretty or beautiful.

Xie Feng suffered in his own way from not being able to remember his initial 10 years of life, so he knew that losing memories was like tearing out a part of one"s soul through force.

"Fortunately, their memories will be erased and rewritten with new ones... At least, none of them will have an empty loophole in their heads."

The False Stars Plan only eliminated memories that were specified before the light enveloped people. For example, the memories the pa.s.sengers would lose would be about flight F 98199. In exchange for those memories, a normal, uneventful flight like any other would be recorded in their head.

Although they were false memories, it was better for them. That way, each person could go on with their lives peacefully and unchanged forever instead of constantly worrying about their safety when going out on the streets or fearing that the government would try to a.s.sa.s.sinate and silence them forever.

That was why even though Xie Feng felt guilty about his decision, he believed this was the best thing for everyone. It might be a bit selfish of him, but the world and life were never fair to begin with... Xie Feng could only do so much.

Suddenly, as Xie Feng observed the scene, he felt a soft small hand holding his tightly.

Looking to his side, Xie Feng saw Xie Yao looking at him with a smile. Although both of their eyes were covered, he could imagine their eyes at that very moment.

Maybe Xie Yao somehow sensed that Xie Feng felt a bit of guilt, so she tried to show him in her own way that he was not alone. that she was there for him.

His burdens were also her burdens; they would do it together. That was what Xie Yao was trying to transmit.

Xie Yao"s little gesture in addition to the words Shen Xinya said to him on the plane finally made Xie Feng feel better about his decision. Although there was still a small spark of guilt, he could live with it.

With a determined look, Xie Feng looked forward again. But what greeted him was a big surprise.

While he was lost in thought, the False Stars Plan had entered its final stage.

Standing in the large jet-black circle, among a few hundred pa.s.sengers, was a beautiful 26 years old stewardess standing at the front. She was naturally Ye Lian.

At first, all Ye Lian felt as she was bathed in the white light was warmth, as if the starlight was gently embracing her. However, when the False Stars Plan entered its second phase, Ye Lian sensed that something was wrong. Unfortunately, it was only when the final stage started that she realized what was wrong.

Without feeling pain and even almost unable to detect, Ye Lian realized that her memories of the past few hours were being removed one by one!

"No!" She thought. She was unwilling.

Ye Lian tried to move, she wanted to get out of that place... Unfortunately, her feet did not respond to her commands; it was as if she was pinned to the ground unable to move even a single inch.

Powerless, she could only watch as her memories were erased and then replaced by other memories.

She forgot how Xiong w.a.n.g molested her during the boarding of the plane, she forgot how Xie Feng helped her out of her uncomfortable situation, she forgot that a turbulence shook the plane during the flight and she sat on his lap, she forgot the feeling of security he conveyed to her... She slowly began to forget everything.

"Please don"t do this..." She cried in her mind. She didn"t want to forget him, she really didn"t want to.

Although what Ye Lian felt for Xie Feng was not love, she had at least become captivated by the handsome and kind young man who was always being surrounded by beauties. This was the first time in her whole life that Ye Lian was attracted to a man... Naturally it was impossible for her to willingly agree to forget him.

"This... Why is she crying?" Xie Yao asked worriedly.

"I don"t... I don"t know." Xie Feng replied in surprise.

This was the first time he had personally witnessed with his own eyes how this project was implemented, all Xie Feng knew was information he had obtained during these few years, that"s all.

However, seeing that the only person crying was the stewardess Ye Lian, everyone could not help but worry.

Swoosh!

As everyone was confused, the white light disappeared and the beautiful but terrifying sight of a fake sky could no longer be seen.

At the same time as the white light disappeared, all the pa.s.sengers fell to the ground unconscious. However, since the floor was made of special materials, none of them would suffer any injuries.

"Let"s go, a group of people will come to pick them up soon and make the necessary arrangements so that all the new memories planted in them will make sense when they wake up."

Major w.a.n.g approached slowly as he removed the dark gla.s.ses covering his eyes.

"Hey, a girl was crying while that white light was surrounding her, why is that?" Shen Xinya asked even before the others could say anything.

"Em? Crying?" Major w.a.n.g frowned slightly and a little surprise appeared in his eyes.

"Is something wrong?" Xie Feng asked in a serious voice.

"No, it"s really nothing." Major w.a.n.g shook his head indifferently: "Sometimes, some people hold on tightly to some memories that they are not willing to lose, which conflicts with the light. But that girl won"t receive any harm, you don"t need to worry about her."

After finishing explaining, Major w.a.n.g walked to the exit.

"She won"t get her memories back? After all, those are important memories for her." Gu Qianxue asked as everyone else also walked to the exit.

"Recover her memories? Heh..." Major w.a.n.g laughed, "You think this is a fantasy comic book or a happy ending movie? This is reality! Something like that never happened and it won"t happen."

Major w.a.n.g"s words were merciless, which made the girls look at him in disgust. He naturally ignored their stares and left the room.

The only person who agreed with Major w.a.n.g"s words was Xie Feng. Although he could not remember if he ever had a family, it was natural to think that in the past he had. After all, to be born, he would need a mother and a father.

However, Xie Feng forgot even his own mother... No matter what important memories Ye Lian lost. Xie Feng did not believe that they were more important than family and motherly love.

As he walked out of the room, Xie Feng could not help but look back for the last time as he wondered what kind of memories from the past few hours were important to her.

"Sorry little beauty..."

With a complicated look, Xie Feng apologized softly.

After making the same route as before to get out of the subway floor, Xie Feng accompanied by four beautiful women finally saw the real night sky of the city.

Since the military base was fully illuminated, the stars in the sky could not be seen from anywhere, which disappointed the girls a little.

"When was the last time I saw the stars in the sky...?" murmured Xie Yao unconsciously.

However, her little murmur was heard by Xie Feng.

Since Shanghai was one of the largest and most important cities in China, the number of inhabitants was naturally very large. The problem was that the light pollution was too incredibly large.

Not to mention Xie Yao, even Xie Feng could not remember when was the last time he had seen the real stars in the sky.

"Yaoyao, do you want to see the stars?" Xie Feng asked unconsciously.

"I would like to, I would like to see the stars with you." She answered without shyness and smiled sweetly.

Xie Feng nodded slowly and said nothing more. But although his expression did not change, his mind was different:

"Then I"ll let you see the stars from up close..."

Since she wanted to see the stars, he would fulfill her wish. As long as he could do it, Xie Feng was willing to do whatever she wanted... Because he knew that she was also willing to do anything for him.
