Chapter 1 How about a different life?
Early morning in June 2015
"Ringing ringing!"
On the bedtop, the alarm clock makes an annoying sound.
"Ahh Yin Rui curled up in the quilt, he reluctantly dragged his body, and found a wooden hammer out of nowhere.
"Bang!"
The alarm clock was knocked to the ground, and he walked groggily, threatening to hit the wall at any moment.
"Is there anything different about me today?" With dark circles under his eyes, he said in the mirror, his tone indifferent.
In the bedroom, under the futon with residual warmth, the mobile phone is turned on.
The center of the screen shows that the inbox has been opened, and the three words "sorry" are particularly clear and curious.
In front of the mirror, Yin Rui was washing indiscriminately, and his hair was messy, so he closed the door in pajamas and slippers.
In the corner of the slightly darkened study, the brand new white gift box is covered by several fashion magazines, looking at the elaborate decoration, it must be a gift for someone, but at the moment, it is piled up like waste.
Heavy body, I don't feel like I belong anymore.
Yin Rui's eyes were distracted and he walked to the café he frequented.
"Xiaorui, you're here!" At the door of the café, the female shopkeeper greeted with a smile.
"Hmmm! Good morning, Aunt Ling! The voice felt particularly low, and Yin Rui walked into the store quickly.
In the corner of the café, the fully automated modern machine is newly placed, and the hand-cranked small grinding machine has a retro atmosphere, which is particularly conspicuous.
"Welcome!" The waitress who greeted her carefully turned the grinder, her expression stiffening.
Yin Rui didn't notice the girl's weirdness, he just tried his best to behave as usual.
"Sister Yun! A cup of hot coffee! In a flat tone, Yin Rui pretended to be calm and squeezed out a smile.
"The same old way?" The waitress lowered her head, and she continued to get busy with the work at hand.
"That, please don't add sugar today!" The young man turned around as if evading, and he looked around.
"Really? That's super bitter! The waitress looked up.
"It's okay! Thank you! Yin Rui walked to the window, and he leaned against the wall and said no more.
The transparent glass reflects the crowd coming and going below, and since the store is on the second floor, this seat has a great view.
"Xiao Rui! Hot coffee! The waitress put down the plate and left quickly, it was all so natural.
The morning café, there is not a single customer yet, he should be the first one.
The neat tabletop, the hot mist flew away, and Yin Rui was attracted by the white paper towel next to the coffee cup.
The cute smiling face sticks out its tongue, and that funny graffiti makes people helpless.
The bulging corners make people curious.
Yin Rui lifted a corner, and two strips of sugar packets were hidden underneath, and the red bows were tightly tied at both ends, connecting the sugar packets together.
"This guy!"
Yin Rui smiled wryly, he looked at the counter, but she was nowhere to be seen.
Yin Rui, who gave up looking for it, expressed his gratitude in his heart, and he took a big sip of half a cup of coffee, which was hot and bitter.
My mind gradually cleared up, and I felt that the pain in my heart had forgotten a lot.
His mind was empty, and he was inadvertently attracted by the two figures outside the window.
Wet streets, drizzle.
A man and a woman were walking hurriedly with small umbrellas, and the boy had almost his entire body dumped out to prevent the girl from getting wet in the rain.
His back was soaking wet for fear of being discovered, and he kept narrating the topic, trying to distract the girl's attention.
Such a clumsy way, but in the eyes of others, it is so warm.
"Come on!" Yin Rui silently blessed, and he looked at the sky.
A feeling of nostalgia flowed through my heart, and I couldn't forget that figure, those experiences.
Sighing, he drank half a cup of coffee, the intense bitterness stimulated his taste buds, and his dull mood was severely suppressed, and he finally made up his mind.
"Good guy card, I took it!" Yin Rui stared at his hand, pale and weak, and dazed for a while.
In his heart, the content of the email quietly emerged, and he spoke as if he had compromised.
"I wish you happiness!"
The rain had stopped, and a piece of his heart had shattered and vanished.
That's it, Yin Rui, who stood up again, glanced at the sugar packet.
"Treat her to a meal next time!"
The grateful heart didn't know how to describe it, and he thought to himself.
"Buzz!"
"Space transfer! The system locks the world!"
Unclear instructions echoed in his ears, Yin Rui's eyes turned gray, and the world around him changed suddenly.
"Ding!"
"Welcome to another world, Lord Host!" The mechanical pronunciation made Yin Rui gasp.
"Another world? It's really fake!" He looked around, it was a small room, and there was not even an exit.
"The host can get out now!"
On the right, an old pitch-black iron door suddenly appeared, Yin Rui quickly put his hand on it, and he began to turn the metal roulette wheel.
"Crunch!" The gears snapped, revealing a slight glow through the crack in the door.
"The Leaver! Mortal! The system doesn't provide protection!" The emotionless tone once again added a hint.
The heart almost went into arrest, and Yin Rui didn't dare to push harder.
In his hand, the cold touch diverged, and he said in a trance, "Your system is fake!"
"System prompt! Absolutely true! It's just paralyzed by some kind of influence!"
"That's it? Answer honestly! In addition to me, how many guys have already died? His heart was beating violently, and Yin Rui confided the confusion in his heart.
"Zero! The host is the first person to react like this, or rather an anomaly!"
"Isn't that weird?" Yin Rui felt that his performance was normal, he had been like this since he was a child.
"The system has detected that the host has severe suspicious symptoms, and treatment is recommended!" The room was delicately rippling with electricity.
"You're sick!" Yin Rui sternly refused.
"Besides! Why can't I feel you? Are you lying to me?" Yin Rui's face was mixed with doubt, and his instincts warned him that there was definitely something wrong with this phenomenon.
"The second host does not feel the existence of the system, it is normal!"
"The second one! What happened to your ex? Although the words sounded awkward, Yin Rui still spoke.
"It's rude for a man to ask a girl that, host!"
"Aren't you the system? There are also men and women! His eyebrows furrowed, and Yin Rui leaned against the wall in surprise.
She ...... Still alive! The narration of the system paused, and the surroundings instantly became depressed.
The more Yin Rui listened, the more confused he became, stepping on two boats, these years, he didn't even have a specific system, he sighed in his heart.
Since the other world is so dangerous, then he should go back, at least he can save his life, rather than worrying every day, it is more suitable to live a leisurely life.
Long live the era of peace!
Yin Rui couldn't help but feel lucky, this may be his hope in the future.
This trip was worth it, and Yin Rui didn't seem to have any nostalgia.
"Can't!" The cold mechanical answer did not hesitate at all.
"Then what are you bringing me here for? Why choose me? Yin Rui's voice was almost roaring, he really wanted to smash this system to smithereens at this moment.
"The host's heart's desire!"
"Wishes? Amusing! Yin Rui himself didn't understand what his wish was, maybe he had been, but he was severely shattered.
Red lights flickered inside the room, and there was a constant rumbling of slashing outside.
