Chapter 1
Wang Erya stared blankly at the blank screen.
A huge tear was rolling in her right eye socket, refusing to fall. Wang Erya looked very aggrieved, but she didn't know why she felt aggrieved.
After a long while, he whispered, "She is so miserable."
Jiang Qi:?
Isn’t this little person above Wang Erya?
Or is this girl not Wang Erya?
The staff came in again with a booklet.
"Wang Erya, from Xiahe Village. Born in 1896, died in 1912 at the age of 16."
Wang Erya stared at the staff blankly and didn't understand.
After a long time, Wang Erya finally responded: "So, I am Wang Erya?"
The staff nodded.
"Am I dead?"
The staff continued to nod.
"But shouldn't people go to Naihe Bridge to drink Mengpo soup after death? I can't remember who I am. Did I drink Mengpo soup? Is this Naihe Bridge?"
The staff explained: "This is the Time Cinema, the third branch of the Underworld Office. Souls like you who have stayed in the human world for too long and have lost their memories will come here to regain their memories."
Wang Erya didn't quite understand, but she had begun to remember who she was, what she had experienced, and how she died.
"So, will I still be a human in my next life?"
"I don't want to be a human being anymore. I want to be a dog kept by a landlord and eat meat every day."
Jiang Qi's nose felt sore and he was overwhelmed with emotions. He stared at Wang Erya in a daze.
The staff member didn't respond and made a check mark on the booklet: "Get out."
Wang Erya walked out obediently.
Jiang Qi stood there blankly for a long time. He wanted to say something but there was no ghost here who could hear him. Jiang Qi sighed deeply, left Hall 3, and walked towards the original theater.
Before returning to the theater, there was a sudden flash of white light and Jiang Qi was back in the room.
The clip was still playing on the screen. Jiang Qi took a look and found that it was the clip where Wang Erya was bullied and beaten by the manager. The original bitter emotion suddenly surged into his heart, and even the corners of his eyes became wet.
Jiang Qi lowered his head and didn't look at the plot on the white screen, and sighed deeply.
Poor Wang Erya.
Thinking of this, Jiang Qi turned his head to look at Qin Can who was holding Wang Erya's movie ticket. He seemed to see Wang Erya, who was pale and thin, and timidly sighed that she was so pitiful. He couldn't help but sigh again.
Qin Can:?
Even though the plot is quite tragic, why are you sighing at me?
Just when Jiang Qi was feeling sad for Wang Erya, the game prompt sounded.
"Congratulations to player Jiang Qi for obtaining [Character Card] × 1, [Building Card] × 1. Please check in the card pack."
Two cards?
Jiang Qi was a little surprised that he could get two cards by entering one copy. The cost-effectiveness was unexpectedly high.
Jiang Qi looked at the others. Everyone was concentrating on watching the plot. Jiang Wanwan had already started crying. Judging from the number of paper balls around her, she had been crying for a while. No one was paying attention to him, so it shouldn't affect everyone if he slipped out to go to the bathroom at this time.
"Move aside, I'm going to the restroom." Jiang Qi whispered to Qin Can on his left. Qin Can decisively turned sideways, and Jiang Qi bent over and went out.
Gently pushing open the door, Liu Lan was sitting at the door watching TV. When he saw someone coming out, he looked up suddenly, and was relieved when he saw it was Jiang Qi.
"Is it all finished?" Liu Lan was a little surprised. He glanced at the time and said, "It's only 11:17. It should be a while longer."
"11:17?" Jiang Qi quickly checked his phone and it was indeed past 11 o'clock.
He remembered that the book started at 7 o'clock in the evening, and it should have been less than 8 o'clock when he entered his memory. He didn't expect that it would be after 11 o'clock when he came out.
More than 3 hours.
Jiang Qi guessed that the villain movie clips must have been playing during these three hours, otherwise no one would have noticed his abnormality.
"It's already 11 o'clock. I didn't even notice the time while watching the villain movie for 4 hours. Is there no other procedure?" Jiang Qi asked calmly.
"The process is just to play a movie." Liu Lan shrugged. "The DM doesn't even need to show up, just stand outside the door and operate the equipment. Although just watching a movie is a bit boring, I've watched those movie clips. The plots of animated movies are very exciting, not inferior to live-action movies. You can also hear it when listening to the radio. These clips are the stories of six people disrupted and played in the categories of joy, anger, sorrow, resentment, and suffering. Players need to think about and sort out the real story by themselves. It can't be considered a pure movie."
After saying that, Liu Lan was a little uncertain and looked at Jiang Qi: "Are you bored?"
Jiang Qi shook his head. He hadn't watched the movie so how could he know that everyone was bored? He watched the whole movie in his memory and just felt that the proletariat of the world should unite.
"I think it's OK." Jiang Qi said vaguely, "You can ask them when it's over. I just came out to use the restroom."
"Oh, right." Liu Lan slapped his head, "I forgot to remind you to go to the bathroom before opening the book."
Jiang Qi walked into the bathroom, opened the card pack, and found that there were indeed two more cards in the pack.
[Character Card: Wang Erya] (Summonable)
Star rating:★
Skills: Maid (Wang Erya worked as a maid in Gong's house for 9 years and is proficient in all the skills of a maid)
Acting as oneself (everyone is very good at playing themselves)
Card details: An ordinary girl born in Xiahe Village, named Erya because she is the second child. She has complete memories of her previous life, can endure hardships and work hard, and has almost zero material desires. As long as she can stay alive, her biggest wish is to be reborn into a good family in the next life so that she can eat meat every day.
(Friendly reminder: Each card slot can only hold three cards, and there is only one position left for the current character card! Please choose carefully and work hard to upgrade the cards.)
[Building Card: Life Cinema] (Summonable)
Interstellar: ★
Skills: Movie watching (the last stop of the journey of life, giving viewers the ultimate movie watching experience)
Card details: A large cinema with 999 theaters, formerly the third branch of the Hell Office, specially designed for lonely souls who have lost their memory after staying in the human world for too long to regain their memories. From the outside, it looks like an ordinary old cinema. Only Hall 1 and Hall 2 are open to ordinary people. Due to insufficient staff, the cinema can only open Hall 1 and Hall 2.
(Friendly reminder: Each card slot can only hold three cards. Please choose carefully and work hard to upgrade the cards.)
(This building card requires a large area. Once placed, it cannot be cancelled or moved before 3 stars. Players are advised to choose the placement carefully.)
Jiang Qi: ...
The building card looks quite powerful and has a supernatural feel. It is also a underworld office with no employees (equivalent to the original site of the abandoned underworld office).
But in such a big cinema, where can he put it?
First of all, he must have land!
Then there is Wang Erya.
Jiang Qi now has only one slot for his character card. Before other cards are upgraded to 3 stars and vacate the slot, if Jiang Qi chooses to summon Wang Erya, he will be stuck and unable to summon even if he obtains a character card with stronger abilities in the future.
No matter how you look at it, Wang Erya's card is not a good one.
If Huang Fugui is an SR card, Lao John is a card between R card and SR card, and Wang Erya is a pure N card.
There are no secrets. Jiang Qi has already seen the entire life in his memory. He has never left the small town in his entire life. He has never had a few happy days in the 16 years from birth to death. He has no skills, is illiterate, and can only do hard work. He was one of the most miserable and exploited people in the old society.
It's pitiful, but it doesn't help.
If Jiang Qi draws this card while playing a game, he will not spend resources to cultivate it, and just let it stay in the card pack and collect dust.
But this isn’t about playing games.
Jiang Qi was in a dilemma.
"Jiang Qi, Jiang Qi, are you still in the bathroom?" Liu Lan's voice came from outside.
"Ah? What's wrong?"
"Hurry up, it's the last part of the movie, I need to go in and cue the process and send the script."
"oh."
Jiang Qi closed the system panel and decided to wait until the incident was completely over before worrying about it. There was no need to rush.
"Here I come."
