Finally, Norton mentioned sending me back home. My experiences on the planet Guoker these past days were fresh and exhilarating, but now that it was time to leave, I felt a deep sadness. What made it worse was that they planned for Suldair and Norton to pilot the spaceship to take me back, instead of Willie. Why wouldn't Willie take me home? Norton explained that Willie herself chose not to. But why? Was it because she couldn't handle the emotional strain of our parting?
Was I overestimating my importance? Perhaps Willie had had many boyfriends, and losing an Earth boyfriend was inconsequential to her. Or maybe it was just another of Norton's plans, using any excuse.
Norton and his team were making preparations for my departure. Norton seemed particularly concerned about the Galactic Interstellar Alliance (GIA), meticulously instructing me on how to avoid their scrutiny and bring advanced technology back to Earth. However, I was indifferent to the technology; I just missed Willie and was dissatisfied with their arrangements, though I had no choice.
Norton activated a computer, and its virtual screen displayed an image of me lying naked on a bed in a room. Someone entered the room, dressed in a jumpsuit that covered their head, with a large black pipe connecting the back of their neck to their hip. They held a device resembling a microphone towards my head while monitoring a small virtual screen.
Norton explained, "This is a scanner that can read some of your brain's conscious information. The GIA has ordered us to delete some of your memories of Guoker. They will check, and if any remnants are found, they will delete them themselves or instruct us to do so. This device scans your head to detect any lingering memories of Guoker. You'll see recurring images in your mind, like a black square frame with a sudden flash of light in the center—that's deep scanning. We have ways to counteract their scanning. I'll now show you a sequence of continuous conscious activity in your brain."
Norton summoned two beautiful women. Although they were only about one meter tall, they were very attractive, even more so than Willie. Their faces resembled those of humans, with slim waists and no noticeable bulges between their legs. Their skin color was similar to that of humans, not the usual pinkish-white with greenish tints common among Guoker people. The two women sat beside me, gently caressing my naked body with their small hands. I felt very embarrassed with Norton standing there, but he seemed unfazed.
Norton said, "These two have been specially trained to develop unique abilities. They can hypnotize you and influence your brain's conscious information through spatial manipulation."
Indeed, I soon felt drowsy. In my sleep, I initially sensed the two women beside me, but soon it felt as if I were back home on Earth, and everything seemed very real. The two women transformed into my mother and my wife, living harmoniously together, cooking, doing laundry, planting vegetables, raising chickens and ducks, and doing farm work. Meanwhile, I chopped wood, fished, and tended to the crops. Occasionally, the scenes would disconnect and reconnect.
When I woke up, the two beautiful women were still sitting beside me. Norton pointed to a virtual screen and asked if that was the dream I had just experienced. To my astonishment, the scene on the screen was identical to my dream.
"Yes, it was exactly the same as my dream. Amazing!" I replied.
"Good!" Norton stepped back, clenched his fists, and waved them in triumph. "This is exactly the result I wanted."
Norton and the two women then left. A GIA member in a jumpsuit entered, using a device resembling a microphone to scan my head. As expected, I saw a black frame with a bright flash in the center in my mind. Simultaneously, the scene of the two women transforming into my mother and wife reappeared in my thoughts. Everything was going smoothly. After the GIA member finished the scan and left, I was still asleep until I heard, "Zone Map 300 Spaceship on autopilot..." I realized I was on my way home. The return journey felt dull in comparison to the exciting and curious adventures on Guoker. Earth's mundane life seemed unappealing. I chose to keep my eyes closed and remained lying down.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of women laughing. I opened my eyes and saw Suldair and Norton intently watching the virtual screen. The laughter came from the two beautiful women, now kneeling by my head. My ear translation device seemed inactive as they spoke in an unknown language. I could only watch them with curiosity.
One of them made a gesture, creating a virtual barrier that separated us from Norton's team. My ear translation kicked back in. They said they were helping Norton, and their reward was experiencing an Earth man's body. They approached me, their expressions clearly showing a woman's desire for a man—an expression common to women from Earth, Guoker, or the underwater inhabitants of Mercury. It was unmistakable.
The two women began kissing me, their virtual clothes vanishing swiftly. Unlike typical Guoker women, they had no bulges between their legs; instead, there was a small red dot the size of a fingertip. How was sex supposed to happen? Disappointed, I closed my eyes, thinking it would just be their touch.
Suddenly, I felt something like a snake moving between my legs. Opening my eyes, I saw that pink, chopstick-thick tentacles were emerging from their groins, crawling over my body. Soon, one tentacle wrapped around my penis, and another entered my anus, sending waves of intense pleasure through me. It felt like the women were snakes entwining me, shifting me between hallucinations and clarity. I was drenched in sweat from the exhaustion, while they seemed unaffected, continuing to touch and laugh.
In my dreams, I couldn't comprehend how I got home. When I awoke, I was naked on my bed in my room. Sunlight was streaming through the window. I wanted to get up, but I couldn't find my shirt and shorts, so I took a new set from my wardrobe.
Walking into the living room, I smelled the usual duck droppings. My mother was making breakfast, and the ducks were still indoors. As I stepped outside, everything that should have been familiar felt strange and different, like returning home after years away. I saw a neighbor girl and asked her what day it was. She paused her work, turned seriously to answer me, but all she said was, "I don't know."
