Chapter 438: Memory Labyrinth Hourglass +3, Special Ability, Memory Master Obtained
Su Yang’s heart skipped a beat. ‘What’s going on? How did things turn out like this?’
Tang Xiaomi had always been cute and adorable. Hence, Su Yang’s heart ached when he saw her crying in a dark corner.
He quickly asked, “Are you alright? What’s happened to you?”
When she heard that Su Yang was concerned about her, Tang Xiaomi’s tears started to flow again. She wiped her tears with her tiny hands and sobbed. “Su Yang... Mommy and I were chased out by a bad woman. We have nowhere to go now.”
Su Yang said, “Don’t worry, Xiaomi. Take your time.”
Tang Xiaomi sobbed as she said softly, “The bad woman came to our house today. She said that we were staying at her husband’s house and spending her husband’s money, but we aren’t repaying their kindness. She also called us both ingrates.”
“In a fit of anger, Mommy said that she would sever all ties with them in the future. Then, she packed her things and brought me out with her.”
When she said that, Tang Xiaomi wiped her tears again. Her face had been covered in dust, probably because she did not know where she had been hiding. When she wiped her tears, she instantly looked like a kitten.
Su Yang asked with a gentle voice, “Where are you now?”
Tang Xiaomi pouted. “I... I don’t know either.”
Su Yang guided her. “Don’t panic. You’re using Mommy’s phone, aren’t you?”
Tang Xiaomi nodded and said nasally, “Yes.”
Su Yang replied, “Turn on your WeChat and send me your location. I’ll come and look for you, okay?”
Tang Xiaomi nodded. “Okay.”
After she said that, she took out her phone and opened WeChat. She found her chat box and clicked on [Location]. Instantly, two options popped up on her phone: [Send Location] and [Share Real-Time Location].

Tang Xiaomi clicked [Send Location] and a map popped up on her phone. Tang Xiaomi was about to click “Send” when suddenly, the door opened. Tang Jing’s voice came from the door. “Xiaomi, what are you doing in the toilet?”
Tang Xiaomi quickly hid her phone behind her back and hung up the call. Su Yang’s [Heaven’s Eyes] had also stopped abruptly.
‘Tang Jing has arrived?
‘Xiaomi was hiding in the toilet?’
Su Yang stood up anxiously. However, that was a private matter between a mother and her daughter, so it would be inappropriate for him to interfere.
Fortunately, even though Xiaomi did not send him her location, Su Yang still managed to find out Xiaomi’s location with [Heaven’s Eyes].
Su Yang looked at the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] that was still floating in the air and hesitated. He did not know if he should call Tang Jing.
Just as he was hesitating, his [Heaven’s Eyes] activated again.
In the picture were Tang Jing and Tang Xiaomi hugging each other.
That time, the two of them seemed to have changed their locations. They moved from the pitch-black toilet to their bed in a hotel room. It was a very spacious room, the decor was elegant with a warm style and there was only one bed in the room which looked like a large bed.
Tang Jing was sitting on the bed and hugging Tang Xiaomi with her phone placed aside. Tang Xiaomi was crying. “I’m just... very scared. That woman was so fierce. Mommy, I don’t want you to be bullied. I want to find Su Yang.”
Tang Jing shook Tang Xiaomi as she patted Tang Xiaomi to comfort her softly, “Xiaomi, you’re such a good girl. Mommy is fine, and no one’s bullying me.”
“Also, we should be handling our issues on our own. We can’t always expect somebody else to help us.”
Tang Xiaomi choked and retorted, “Su Yang is not somebody else.”
Tang Jing smiled gently as she hugged Xiaomi and patted her gently. “You’re right, he’s not somebody else, you’re such a good girl. But... no one else is part of our family other than Mommy and Xiaomi.”
When she heard that, Xiaomi stopped crying and pouted as she looked at Tang Jing. “Su Yang too!”
Tang Jing smiled and buried Xiaomi’s head back into her chest. Then she continued to pat Xiaomi, but when Xiaomi could not see her, her eyes slowly turned red and her face was filled with sadness.
As the image slowly disappeared, Su Yang looked at it and sighed.
He sat back on the [Small Bench That Refuses To Eat Melons]. ‘On second thought, I don’t think I should disturb Tan Jing actually.
‘It’s obvious that Tang Jing and Tang Xiaomi are facing some issues at home. However, it’s their family matter, so It would be rude of me to interfere.
‘Moreover, based on the second image, Tang Jing and Tang Xiaomi didn’t seem to be any danger, so there’s no need for me to rush it.’
He looked at the time. It was 7 pm. He thought about it. ‘Since I know where the girls are staying, I might as well go there at around 10 pm.
‘Didn’t Tang Jing like to drink alcohol? I could use that as an excuse to look for her and drink with her to ease her emotions. Then, I’ll listen to her if she does decide to confide in me. Otherwise, I’ll just pretend not to know anything.
‘After all, Tang Jing and Tang Xiaomi are my friends, so I should help them if they need it.
‘Putting everything aside, It was heartbreaking to see Xiaomi crying so sadly.’
Su Yang spent the next hour listening to music, playing TikTok and reading novels. Soon, as the countdown ended, countless cracks appeared on the surface of the cocoon of light that was floating quietly in the air. Then, it exploded.
Following the explosion, a bright orange light spilled out!
Su Yang had already turned around before the countdown ended, so he was not hurt that time.
He ate a few melon seeds and turned around, just in time to see the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] fall to the ground.
Su Yang’s heart skipped a beat. ‘Don’t you dare break!’
He tossed the remaining melon seeds on the ground as he stood up and ran towards the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass]. He lowered his head to study it. ‘The [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] hasn’t changed, it’s still made of glass with the size of a thumb and it still looks exquisite. However, there are some golden patterns next to the black lines on its body.
‘The golden patterns are going according to the black lines and are engraved on the glass of the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass].
‘The originally strange and mysterious [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] now has a more majestic feel to it.’
Just as Su Yang was sizing it up, a notification popped up in front of him. [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass +3, Change in form, obtained a new ability.]
‘New ability?
‘So it has actually obtained another new ability?’
There was a reason why Su Yang added more points to the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass]. After he added more points to the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] the last time, Little Hus rushed into the room and said that it smelled an even stronger fragrance.
The fragrance had come from the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass].
This meant that the potential of the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] was far from reaching its peak. Therefore, there was a very high chance that adding another point to it would give it an outstanding ability.
That was also the reason why Su Yang dared to add another point onto the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] without being afraid of wasting his [Random Point].
Other than the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass], his other most useful special item was the [Lucky Disfiguring Brick].
However, he did not dare to add another point onto the [Lucky Disfiguring Brick]. That was because he had not gotten Little Hus to sniff it, so he was not sure if it had any potential.
However, the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] definitely had potential.
Now, Little Hus’s nose had just been proven to be effective once again. The [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] had indeed obtained a new ability with a third point added onto it.
[Special Ability, Memory Master]
Ability: After you gently knock on the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] 3 times, you will gain the ability to edit other people’s memories including deleting and moving their memories.
Restriction 1: The time and range that you’re able to edit the target’s memory is affected by the level of your [Film And Television] related ability.
Restriction 2: The duration of the memory that you are able to edit is affected by the level of your [Film And Television] related ability.
Restriction 3: Every time you use this ability, you will become unhappy for 1 hour.
Note: When you become a pair of large scissors, what would you turn into 404?
‘This ability is simple, direct and extremely awesome.’
When Su Yang finished reading the description of the ability, he felt that the ability was worthy of Little Hus’s high praise when it rushed into his room and shouted, “It smells so good! It smells so good!”
‘With this ability, I don’t think I have to worry about anything in the future. After all, I’ll be able to change another person’s memory if there are any problems.
‘However, I don’t know how effective this ability is or to what extent could I use this ability. If it could really adjust someone’s memory, that would be really Godlike!’
Su Yang looked at the time and realized that there was still a long time before he could look for Tang Jing. Therefore, he thought about it. ‘I’ve decided, I’m going to try out this ability!’
With that thought in mind, Su Yang went to Little Deeny’s bedroom to look for her. ‘After all, Little Deeny has 7 doppelgangers, so it shouldn’t be a problem to break 1 of them, right?
‘Plus, if something went wrong with the memories of the other monsters, I’d be in deep trouble.’
Su Yang knocked on Little Deeny’s bedroom door. “Little Deeny, are you there?”
The door creaked open, and a small, red-clad Little Deeny appeared behind the door. She said with a smile, “Master, you’re here.”
Su Yang patted her head. “That’s right, Little Hong.”
Little Deeny had 7 doppelgangers and 1 main body. In order for Su Yang to differentiate who was who, he prepared 7 sets of clothes for the seven doppelgangers and arranged them according to red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.
That was why Su Yang called them Little Hong, Little Cheng, Little Huang, and so on. Of course, they had the same thought process as still Little Deeny instead of being an independent entity, so there was no difference between them apart from their clothes.
As for the real Little Deeny, she would only wear other colors like black, white, or gray.
Since Little Deeny was in control of all her dopplegangers, neither of them had anything of preference or interest. On the other hand, the real Little Deeny would sometimes dress up as one of her clones and was addicted to it.
As he entered the house, Su Yang said to Little Deeny, who was sitting down on her bed as she trained, “Little Deeny, could you separate the memories of your doppelgangers sp that I can manually operate on my own for a moment?”
Little Deeny shook her head without hesitation. “I can’t, Master. My doppelgangers are just empty shells and don’t have any thought processes or memories. Those are all mine. I am the only 1 controlling 8 bodies by myself. In a way, it’s no different from you controlling your own hands and feet.”
‘What...
‘Now that’s a bad start.’
Just as Su Yang was thinking about this, Little Deeny continued, “However... I can build a virtual machine for my doppelganger and store a day’s worth of memories inside. Then, you’ll be able to operate on it as you wish. I’ll just delete it after you’re done.”
Su Yang’s eyes lit up. ‘That works too!
‘Let’s go with that.’
