"Lost memory?" Violet exclaimed, covering her lips in disbelief.
Calvin was also surprised that he himself would lose the memory.
Only Arya tilted her head and asked, "Mommy, what is memory loss?"
"Your brother forgets something." Violet touched Arya’s forehead and replied concisely.
Arya understood, putting a finger in her mouth, "Why did brother forget things?"
"Yes, doctor, why does my son lose his memory?" Violet looked at the doctor and asked eagerly.
The doctor did not answer immediately, but bent over to check Calvin's head.
But after the examination, his face was full of surprise, "It is weird! Your son has not suffered any trauma to his head. It stands to reason that there is no chance of memory loss."
"But he just lost his memory." Violet pointed to Calvin.
Calvin frowned and tried to recall what happened last night. But the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't remember it. Then he felt a dull pain in the back of his head.
Seeing the pain on his face, Violet quickly put a hand on his forehead and said, "Baby, don't think about it. If you can’t remember it, just forget it."
"Sorry, Mommy." Calvin pursed his lips and apologized in shame.
Violet put her hand down, leaned over and pressed her forehead lightly against his forehead. She smiled softly, "Don't say I'm sorry. Sweetie, it's Mommy who should say sorry to you."
"Mommy doesn't have to say sorry to me." Calvin looked at her.
Calvin words made Violet feel more self-blaming. She rubbed her son's forehead and stood up straight, "Doctor, haven't you had the conclusion yet?"
The doctor pondered for a moment, "I thought of a possibility. Your son should have been stimulated by the car accident and caused amnesia. This is the self-protection of the brain. There have been similar cases in medicine."
"Can he recover?" Violet stared at the doctor closely.
The doctor shook his head uncertainly, "This is not clear. He may be recovered in a few days, or he may not be recovered for a lifetime, but this is also a good thing, at least he will not leave any psychological shadows."
Hearing this, Violet nodded relievedly, "You are right."
It was just that a part of the memory was lost, not all of the memory. Compared to memory, Calvin's life was the most important thing. If he couldn’t remember those things, just forget it.
After the doctor left, Lily came back with two police officers from yesterday, both of whom came to ask Calvin about the situation before the accident.
However, Calvin lost his memory and didn't know anything.
The two police officers got nothing. The clues to the accident were so cut off.
Lily sat down on the sofa with an unwilling look, "Well, well, this time, we can't catch the murderer again, the same as the previous two."
Violet smiled helplessly, without speaking.
"Baby." Lily suddenly thought of something. She looked at Calvin, who had taken medicine on the hospital bed and fell asleep. Then she squinted her eyes, "Do you think Calvin's memory loss is too coincidental?"
"Mom, what do you mean?" Violet was wiping Calvin's body. Then she suddenly stopped when she heard this.
Lily pursed her lips, "I mean, Calvin's memory loss was a little too coincidental. Calvin just happened to lose that part of memories. I think it’s the murderer deliberately trying to cover up clues and erasing Calvin's memory."
"It's really weird. But it's really just a coincidence. How can anyone control other people's memories at will?" Violet continued to wipe Calvin's body.
Lily waved her hand, "Maybe it is true. The hypnosis master has this ability on the TV."
"It is on the TV. In reality, I have never heard of anyone who has this ability." Violet laughed. But she didn't take Lily’s words to heart.
Lily also felt that she might be too worried. She shrugged and then went outside to buy lunch.
