Chapter 92: A Notable Case of Reincarnation
The entire audience and all the experts watched their televisions and phones in silence.
According to some psychologists and theologians, reincarnation cases do indeed exist in the world.
However, many are eventually debunked, and most are stories deliberately fabricated by collaborating authors for the sake of hype and fame.
They wanted to see if the case Jiang Zhe was about to cite would be one that had already been debunked; if so, Jiang Zhe's 'omniscience' would be shattered!
Professor Hua Yunfeng scanned the audience and noticed some professors with smirks on their faces.
"What's the situation with them?"
He looked at Old Feng, who glanced at the crowd. "Psychologist Old Zhang, theologian Old Wu, media professor Old Guang..."
Old Feng turned his gaze back to Jiang Zhe on the big screen.
In his heart, he suddenly had a bad feeling.
Those professors were quite knowledgeable about both domestic and international reincarnation cases.
What Jiang Zhe was about to say might very well walk right into their trap!
"Oh boy, Jiang Zhe isn't about to crash into their areas of expertise, is he?"
Old Feng narrowed his eyes, unable to help feeling worried for Jiang Zhe.
Just then, on the big screen, Jiang Zhe spoke directly:
"Next, I will briefly give you a few examples. Some of these you might not be able to find on the internet, but you can go to YouTube yourself to find the relevant family members involved in the cases."
He said this because some cases in this world differed from those in his previous life, so he had to make an excuse; moreover, in a short period, this body had indeed never traveled abroad, unlike in his past life.
Hearing this, more and more viewers began to take it seriously.
"Case 1—"
"James Leininger."
"March 3, 1945, during World War II."
"A 21-year-old United States Navy pilot named James Huston was flying his final mission!"
"He took off from the aircraft carrier USS Natoma Bay to participate in the Battle of Iwo Jima."
"There were eight pilots in Huston's formation, including his friend, Jack Larsen."
"Their objective was to bomb a nearby Japanese transport ship. Later, Huston's plane was unfortunately hit and crashed into the sea, and he was declared killed in action!"
This case was not common in this world.
Some meticulous viewers immediately searched the web, but most couldn't find anything.
"It's not online!"
"Yeah, I searched too. This case isn't on the internet."
"Brothers, I can only find this person, James Huston; he's a pilot listed in the United States public archives. Currently, it matches exactly what Jiang Zhe said!"
"Brothers... the eerie thing is, this matter can actually be found in someone's Twitter log in the United States. It's not a story fabricated by Jiang Zhe; it was posted by James himself. He is currently 25 years old, 26 by traditional reckoning!" (Note: A real case, a real person, and a real age)
"Holy crap, this is getting a bit terrifying!!!"
"..."
Confirming that the first half of the story was true, the audience excitedly continued watching, while some started digging for more information to see it for themselves!
"As time passed!"
"53 years later, in 1998!"
"April 1998."
"A couple in Louisiana, Bruce and Andrea, gave birth to a boy. His parents named him James."
"Now in 2024, he is 25 years old, nearly 26 or 27 by traditional reckoning."
"When the boy was one year and ten months old, his father took him to a flight museum. James was immediately attracted to the planes, especially the WWII aircraft; James was particularly interested!"
"The boy also got a video about a naval flight formation from the museum. He watched it repeatedly for several weeks and was immensely interested!"
"About two months later, when James saw his father was about to go on a trip by plane, he actually said the words 'plane crash' in advance."
"He even crashed his toy plane into the table in front of his father, leaving many scratches on the table!"
"His parents found it strange and began to observe James more closely afterward."
"They discovered that James often had nightmares at night. At first, he would scream in his sleep, scaring his parents so much many times that they didn't dare go to sleep."
"Later, he would occasionally shout: 'Plane crash, little man can't get out!'."
"After shouting this, the boy's legs would kick wildly, and he rolled off the bed many times."
"Finally, under his parents' questioning, James told them about the plane crash."
"He said: 'Before I was born, I was a pilot. My plane's engine was hit and I fell into the water. That's how I died.'"
"He also mentioned taking off from a ship and later being shot down by the Japanese."
"When his parents frowned and asked for the ship's name, he said it was called 'Natoma'."
"The parents then asked who the 'little man' was?"
"He replied 'James'. Later, under his parents' questioning, the boy said 'James' was his own name in his previous life."
"The parents asked if he could remember anyone else?"
"The boy named another person: Jack Larsen. This was his former wingman."
"The matter was left at that for the time being."
"But as time went by, James's behavior and words in daily life became increasingly strange!"
"When James was two and a half years old, he happened to see a photo of Iwo Jima in a book. He excitedly said to his parents: 'Mom and Dad, this is where my plane was shot down.'"
"Because of this, the parents became even more suspicious that this two-and-a-half-year-old child wasn't joking, but was speaking out of instinct about many things they had never heard of; nor was it something he had learned from the television."
After finishing those words, he paused for a moment and continued the explanation:
"Time flew by, and during his childhood..."
"James liked to play at being a pilot in his father's car, but he wasn't satisfied with just playing in the car seat."
"So he converted a closet in his house into a simulated cockpit and would pretend to be a pilot inside when he was bored."
"His mother later observed that James possessed a vast amount of knowledge regarding aircraft!"
"For example, once, while she and James were playing with a newly bought toy plane."
"Because the shape of the plane was a bit strange, the mother jokingly told James, 'The thing attached under the plane looks a lot like a bomb!'"
"As a result, James countered his mother with a serious little face, 'That's not a bomb, that's a fuel tank and a drop tank, usually attached to the bottom of the plane!'"
"'When the fuel is exhausted, the plane will eject the drop tank and descend to slow down.'"
"Upon hearing this, the mother stared in shock at James, who was solemnly educating her on aircraft, and was left stunned."
"She found it hard to imagine where a two-year-old child could have obtained this knowledge if he hadn't brought his own memories with him?"
"From the TV? But James clearly didn't even recognize words yet."
"At the same time, she felt afraid from the bottom of her heart."
"If an adult really lived inside her child's body!"
"Then was he the previous James, or the current James?"
"More time passed, and during that period, many more instances occurred that could verify James was a reincarnated person."
"Later, James also underwent interviews of various sizes with authoritative figures and various related professionals; this included meeting his former comrade: Jack Larsen was still alive, living in Arkansas..."
"Of course, as of 2024, it's estimated that old fellow Larsen has likely passed away."
"One day, James's parents could no longer tolerate this eerie situation and decided to investigate to the bottom of it!"
"And so, when James was eleven years old, Jim Tucker came to his home."
"Tucker is a psychiatrist at the University of Virginia and is one of the well-known scholars who specifically use scientific methods to study reincarnation phenomena."
"Tucker spent two days interviewing the family and was immensely certain—James was the most convincing of all the reincarnation cases he had studied!"
"Because James's descriptions of details were completely consistent with existing archives, and there were no third-party channels for him to obtain this information."
"Even! Young James later reunited with his sister from his previous life, though she was already a very elderly sister by then."
"There are so many subsequent details that I won't tell them all due to limited live broadcast time."
At this point, Jiang Zhe's expression was very solemn as he stated the conclusion:
"This is, for me, the most convincing reincarnation case, with almost no exceptions!"
In his previous life...
This case was the foremost among cases that shocked the entire world!
At the very least, it was the top reincarnation case in the United States, without exception.
For the people of this world, it could be found, but it was difficult, unless the audience really went to contact the parties involved!
As these words fell, everyone sank into deep thought.
Then, more and more experts and viewers went to verify the truth of what he had told!
