A cryptic story!
Elderly Man "Are you sure this thing can rejuvenate my body?"
Man "Yes. This machine our company developed will reconstruct, from your cells, the healthy body you had when you were at the prime of your youth, and then transplant your existing memories into it; so that your memories will remain the same while your body alone will rejuvenate."
Elderly Man "I see.... Then, please proceed."
The elderly man lies down on a bed, and gets covered over by a sheet.
A few hours later -
Elderly Man (He's sure taking long.....When is it going to start?)
Man "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
Young Man "Thank you very much. I had no idea it would go this smoothly.... By the way, what are you going to do with this old body of mine?"
Man "It shall be taken care of. We look forward to serving you again, sir."
The man wheels the bed to the next room.
Elderly Man (Oh. It seems the man before me had a successful operation. But finally it's my turn...)
Young Man "Thank you very much."

It didn't transplant the memories; it just copy-pasted them into the newly-created body. O_o
Another intriguing thing for me is in what manner will the old man "be taken care of"!
A strange story!
I wonder what will they do to the old man..
But these open my mind.
Your story always gives me a new perspective. Thanks a lot for this Saya-san!
I was extremely sad for the victim in that movie.
I like Kitty's idea that it was probably a scam. But how sad it is if it's true that instead of having a new younger body, the old man's memories and personality was cloned into a new body. I wonder if the 'young man' was also a victim like in Phobia2 movie.
nunu
REALLY, CAPTCHA? REALLY? And how does being able to read that make me human? It probably makes me an alien who's allergic to a rock on his home planet!
Anyway, yeah. I agree with everyone else. The man says it'll put the old man's memory in the new, younger body. But he doesn't say that it'll be the old man actually in the new body; just his memories. So the new body acts like the old man, but the old man is still there in his old body and he'll be "taken care of".

Fact truly is stranger than fiction at times!
Don't you think?
I wonder what the Man does to the Old Man. I think he'll kills the old man or something? -.-
It's quite creepy. Anyway, thanks for the post, Saya-san! ^^
Which means, the young man is the younger version of the elderly one... omg this is so creepy that it felt too real...
With this age where everything can happen, i think it'd be juat a matter of time before humans can be clonned and tgis story might not be so creepy in that time....
Anyway, saya san, good to have you backkkk! I was spacing out when i thought this is the right time to read scary stories, so i click to my bookmark, hopping you would have some new updates that i can read,, thank Goodness i was right.
Thanks for the story saya san,, otsukare!!
If this is actually some kind of a scam scenario where the (presumably rich) old man is basically getting his identity stolen by someone who is made to look like a younger version of him
