F(6) MAGIC EYE

CH 30 - POND'S MEMORIES

A blurry scene appeared before Phuwin's eyes, his memories took him to a large room, seemingly an office. Phuwin looked around and discovered a man in black clothes sitting in a chair far away. It wasn't until he got closer that he realized it was him.

Pond raised his hand to flip through each document, his stern face made Phuwin feel his coldness, he felt a bit unfamiliar. On the desk, Phuwin looked at the sign with the chairman's title, followed by his name - Naravit Lertratkosum. Phuwin muttered this name a few times in his head, both familiar and strange, as if he had heard it before on TV but never paid attention to it. A knock on the door made him look outside, at the same time his voice rang out

"Come in"

Phuwin witnessed the image of a person walking inside, it seemed like it was his secretary or assistant, but that person was Nani. Nani came in from outside the door, holding a stack of documents

"We just received an invitation to the party, would you like to confirm your participation?"

Pond's face flashed with discomfort. He thought for a while, and in the end, he coldly spoke a few words

"Okay"

Nani nodded, he filled out the schedule on paper to arrange the time and then left the room. Phuwin returned to observe Pond for a while before realizing that he in real life was completely different from the guy he usually talked to, it felt like two different people. Pond here is both cold and serious, and also a bit fastidious, seemingly making company employees afraid to disobey.

His memories led him to another location, a large mansion decorated magnificently with countless expensive lamps. It seemed like it was his house. If he had paid close attention and remembered a little more clearly, he might have discovered that Dunk had once taken a corner of this room, but the influence of the apparition quickly made him forget. It, moreover, right now he's only focused on searching for Pond's memories, and doesn't have time to pay attention to the decorations around him.

Pond sat on a chair in the living room, scrolling through the news while sipping a cup of coffee. The sound of a car stopping outside the door rang out, a few minutes later a young boy walked in, Phuwin guessed that he was a little younger than Pond, it was Gemini.

"Are you home from school?"

Pond raised his voice. He watched Gemini throw his schoolbag aside and then fall onto the chair, rubbing his temples.

"If you're tired, go to your room and rest."

His words made Phuwin realize that he is a person who cares about others, but seems to only care about family members.

"No need, I'll sit here for a bit."

Pond nodded and continued with his unfinished newspaper reading. A moment later when Gemini saw the news sent by Joong, he immediately looked at Pond

"You and P' Joong plan to fight for territory on the Thai border, near the Gulf of Siam"

Pond stopped, looked up at Gemini who was holding a message in front of him. He looked for a while, then quietly spoke

"Your problem is studying, and Joong will take care of that, there's nothing that Joong can't get"

Pond knew that recently his company wanted to promote the export of products to the border of the Gulf of Siam, that's why Joong wanted to hedge all the advantages to help him easily export abroad. Joong's purpose up until now has been only one, which is to secretly protect Aydin's safety. Pond stood up, picked up the cup of coffee and put it on the sink, while Gemini just looked at him for a moment and then went back to the room. Phuwin listened to Pond's story and once again understood that the family was not only in the business world, but that the person named Joong could also be a mafia. Phuwin shivered, the feeling of standing in a place with such a family background like this made him even more curious about the cause of his accident, and also guessed that someone had harmed him.

Phuwin's hand was still firmly placed on Pond's hand, he closed his eyes and fell into his vague memories. His index finger dripped blood, seeping into his hand, causing both hands to gradually turn red. The matrix glowed again, taking Phuwin to the most recent memory of his accident. Pond stood at a luxurious drinking party, there were many people who wanted to come and have a glass of wine with him, but he all acted cold, the social look was clearly visible on his face, Pond just stood still and observed his surroundings.

The fight for the contract broke out and Pond was the winner. During the drinking party, he immediately snatched away the partner that Phuwanat was also aiming for. From afar, a young man approached Pond. He smiled politely and held up a glass of wine in front of him.

"Congratulations to Chairman Naravit on winning the contract"

"No need to be polite, Mr. Nat, I have the ability"

Pond raised his mouth and smiled, looking at the glass of wine placed in front of him with no intention of emptying it. Everyone knows that Aydin and Phuwanat compete for each contract, replacing each other to win the number one business position in Thailand. Pond never expressed his respect towards his opponents. Even when he was socializing, he only spoke a few sentences.

"I have to go home, please Nat make way."

Pond raised his voice, then walked straight towards the door. He left the party first but it was already late at night. His luxury car drove on the road, Phuwin saw the incoming call, it was from a person named Gemini urging him to go home early because Joong was waiting. From the third perspective, Phuwin could see a panoramic view of a car losing control, a driver with dangerous eyes aimed straight at his car at the intersection, intentionally crashing straight into him. Before Pond lost consciousness, Phuwin could only see that the person's wrist had a tattoo of a small snake. He wanted to see the other person's appearance more clearly, but the matrix was starting to become chaotic at this moment. It had been more than ten minutes since the formation began, but Phuwin still stubbornly lay down and held his hand without letting go.

Pond sat in the matrix. He was the most alert person and saw his expression clearly. He knew that ten minutes had passed, and it was time for Phuwin to wake up. More blood flowed from his fingers. The strange thing was that his blood began to flow into his palm and then disappeared. It was a reaction of the matrix. Pond would gradually drain his blood if Phuwin persisted. in his memory

"Phuwin! Phuwin! Wake up!"

Pond called his name loudly, he felt the trembling from his body, his body seemed to be caught in a matrix, no matter how much he called, he could not escape, moreover, the necklace around Phuwin's neck had caught him light up. Phuwin in his memory tried to look a little more but couldn't, he only saw blood, his blood flowing from his head, time fast forwarded until the police surrounded him, the boy covered in black clothes. standing and chatting with the police, the person whose face he had previously performed magic at the crossroads could not see but could now see clearly, he could guess, was this person's name Joong, because A boy named Gemini is also standing next to him.

Pond tried to pull his hand away from the boy's blood-stained hand. He hugged him, calling his name continuously. Pond looked down at the drawing of the matrix in Phuwin's blood, and violently wiped it with his hand, damaging the drawing of the matrix. From then on, Phuwin also suddenly regained consciousness, freed from his memories.

Phuwin's body gasped in his arms, right at this moment he must have been extremely concerned and worried about him. The person trying to help him regain his memories was weakening and powerless right before his eyes, but he couldn't do anything else. Pond kept hugging Phuwin, calling his name in the hope that he could open his eyes to look at him, even just a little.  In the end, the person who wanted to see could not open his eyes. Phuwin fainted in his arms, not moving a bit.
