chapter28：Amy's Quest Start

When Amy rushed to the door, for some reason, she suddenly looked back. This glance made her eyes widen in shock. The villa that had originally stood there had disappeared without a trace, and in its place was an inn. People in the inn were coming and going. They seemed to be completely unaware of Amy's presence as they chatted and laughed leisurely, with relaxed and pleasant smiles on their faces.

Just at this moment, Amy felt as if something was forcibly invading her mind. Then, the butler's voice rang in her head: "Miss Amy, you now need to find your companions within an hour and awaken their memories. Only in this way can you return to the villa and unravel the mystery behind all this."

Amy cried out in panic in her heart, "What on earth is going on? Who are you? Why do you want me to do this?"

The butler's voice came again: "Miss Amy, don't panic first. I am the butler of this place. There are complex and intricate stories here. My grandparents once had a very warm time when this place was still an inn. At that time, the inn was always filled with laughter. Grandpa would wipe the tables and chairs in the morning sunlight, and grandma would prepare delicious food in the kitchen. They were enthusiastic about every guest, and every corner was filled with the warmth of home."

At this point, the butler's voice choked slightly: "However, good times don't last long. One day, alien experimenters came here. They discovered that my grandparents had special abilities and forcibly took their souls away for experiments. Since then, my grandparents had disappeared without a trace. My parents, in order to rescue my grandparents, transformed the inn into a villa and then began to engage in high - dimensional experiments. However, fate played tricks on them. Until one day, my parents were also discovered by the aliens and taken away."

Amy listened to the butler's story, her heart full of doubts and sympathy: "Then why was I chosen? What can I do?"

The butler replied: "Miss Amy, I see a special power in you. I believe you have the ability to complete this task. Time is pressing now. You should hurry up and take action."

Amy took a deep breath to stabilize her emotions and then began to search for her companions in the inn. She first met Jack.

"Jack, why are you here?" Amy asked eagerly.

Jack looked blank and said, "Amy, I don't know what's going on either. I was just in the villa, and suddenly I was here. Where on earth is this?"

Amy briefly told Jack what the butler had said: "We need to find Lucy within an hour, awaken each other's memories, and then we can return to the villa to solve the mystery."

"Lucy? Where is Lucy?" Jack also began to worry.

They searched everywhere in the inn, shouting Lucy's name as they searched. Suddenly, Amy heard a faint voice coming from a corner: "Amy, Jack, I'm here."

They hurriedly ran over and found Lucy trapped behind a barrier formed by a strange force.

"Lucy, are you okay?" Amy asked anxiously.

Lucy said with a sob: "I'm so scared. I don't know how I got here either, and then I was trapped."

Jack comforted her on the side: "Lucy, don't be afraid. We will rescue you."

Amy began to carefully observe the barrier and found some tea sets emitting strange lights around it. She thought to herself, could these tea sets be the key to breaking this barrier?

Amy slowly crouched down, her eyes fixed tightly on those tea sets emitting strange lights, observing them intently without blinking. These tea sets had various shapes, all very strange. Some were like flowers in full bloom, so vividly beautiful that they seemed to be dripping with water; some were like birds about to soar high, so lifelike that they seemed to break through the constraints of space in the next second. Each tea set was exquisitely beautiful beyond compare, yet also inadvertently exuded an indescribable mysterious aura.

Amy said softly to Jack and Lucy: "I feel that these tea sets might be the key to breaking this barrier. Didn't the butler say that we need to awaken each other's memories? Maybe these tea sets have some connection with our memories."

Jack listened and couldn't help scratching his head, saying with a puzzled look on his face: "But, what exactly should we do? These tea sets seem to be no different from ordinary ones except that they can glow."

Lucy also chimed in on the side: "Yes, Amy. Where should we start?"

Amy thought for a short while and then carefully stretched out her hand and gently touched a tea set that looked like a bird. The moment her finger just touched the tea set, a faint electric current quickly spread throughout her body, and then a picture emerged in her mind. In the picture, when she first arrived at the villa, she was laughing with Lucy and Jack in the living room. They were sharing their interesting stories with each other. At that time, the warm sunlight shone on them through the window, and the whole picture was full of warmth and beauty.

Amy's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly: "I think I understand. These tea sets can trigger our memories. Each of us has to find the tea set related to ourselves. In this way, we can awaken our memories and maybe even break this barrier."

So the three of them began to search separately. Jack rummaged through a pile of tea sets. Suddenly, his eyes lit up when he found a tea set that looked like a shield. He reached out and touched this tea set. In an instant, memories flooded towards him like a surging tide. He saw himself and Amy discussing the topic of the occult in the villa's garden. At that time, their eyes were twinkling with the light of curiosity for the unknown, and the passion for exploration was burning brightly in their hearts. Jack couldn't help muttering to himself: "So that's how it is. These are our past memories."

Lucy was not idle either. She found a flower - like tea set in the corner. After gently touching it, her past memories were also instantly awakened. Her eyes were a little moist, and her voice trembled slightly as she said: "I remember. When I was helping to prepare dinner in the villa's kitchen, everyone was laughing and talking. That warm feeling, I will never forget it."

As the three people's memories were continuously awakened, the barrier began to flicker, and the light was sometimes bright and sometimes dim, looking as if it was on the verge of collapse.

Amy saw this and shouted: "Quick, let's look for more. Maybe there are other tea sets that can completely break this barrier."

... Just at this time, Amy's eyes were attracted by a huge tea set hidden in the corner. This tea set seemed to be composed of countless small tea sets and emitted a strong and dazzling light. Amy slowly and carefully approached it. Before she even got close, she could feel a powerful force emanating from the tea set.

Amy said with a firm look in her eyes: "This one must be the key." After saying that, she reached out to touch this huge tea set. Suddenly, a blinding strong light flashed, and the three of them were instantly卷入 a vortex of light.

In the vortex, they saw the scene when the butler's grandparents were taken away by the alien experimenters. They saw that the grandparents' faces were full of horror and reluctance. They struggled desperately but were powerless to resist and could only let those alien experimenters take them away.

Amy clenched her fists tightly and said firmly: "We must stop all this."

When the light gradually dissipated, they found that they were already outside the barrier, and Lucy had also been successfully rescued.

Jack let out a long sigh of relief and said: "We should go find the other companions now."

... They walked in the inn while shouting the names of other possible companions. Suddenly, a low sobbing sound came from a guest room. The three of them hurriedly rushed towards the guest room. As soon as they entered, they found a little boy huddled in the corner crying.

Amy quickly walked forward and asked gently: "Little boy, who are you? Why are you crying here?"

The little boy slowly raised his head, his eyes full of tears, and said: "Sister, I came here to play with my mom and dad, and suddenly I couldn't find them, and I feel like I've forgotten a lot of things."

Amy's heart skipped a beat, realizing that this little boy might also be a trapped companion. So she began to search carefully in the guest room for a tea set related to the little boy's memory. Finally, under the bed, she found a small tea set engraved with the little boy's likeness.
