Chapter 01 First Floor
Ana Shen crossed her hands and rested them on her chin, staring solemnly at the transparent original nutrient solution on the table.
My stomach was rumbling and the government-issued vital sign chart on my right wrist was flashing a merciless red light.
This body, which had not eaten for four days, was on the verge of collapse.
If he has not consumed any energy today, the local health team will rush to the temporary shelter the next day to take him back.
The hand on his chin spread out, Ana Shen covered his face, and screamed silently.
But if you eat it, you will die!!!
Ana Shen’s head slammed heavily on the table.
He traveled through the book.
The day after he traveled to this world, he realized that his friendly and handsome neighbor next door was Ruan Zhixian, the protagonist of the unfinished novel "Hush" that he was following before he traveled through time.
The novel is set in 2924. After the sixth industrial revolution, social resources have been exhausted, and some people have left the Blue Planet to develop in the Red Planet and the Black Planet.
With the changes of history, Black Star gradually became the planet with the most developed economy, the most densely populated population, and also the most serious polarization.
The tycoons at the top of the pyramid control politics. They sing and dance and spend money extravagantly, while the lower-class residents are exploited and can only live in misery.
And he, the original owner of this body, was a fifth-class citizen of the lowest class, not far from death.
He lost his job for stealing a month ago and has been making ends meet by picking up garbage on the streets every day.
Later, the New Energy and Environmental Protection Act was issued, and garbage was collected and processed in a unified manner. He didn't even have to pick up the garbage and almost starved to death.
It was the male protagonist who helped him, picked him up and took him home, and fed him nutrient solution.
Not only that, after he woke up, the kind-hearted male protagonist helped him find a job, and when he was harassed and threatened by local gangsters, he stepped forward and saved him again.
Within a month, he regarded the male protagonist as the most important person in his life and worshipped him fanatically.
Then she was exploited by the male protagonist and all her value was squeezed out.
Finally, she was sent to a black clinic, suggesting that he open his heart to express his love.
She was already lying on the operating table, still not understanding what was going on. She took off her clothes, tears welling up in her eyes, and said to the male protagonist at the terminal with great emotion:
"I can finally do something for you."
The man on the screen smiled and nodded, and the doctor performed surgery to remove the heart.
Before his consciousness faded, the evil doctor viciously revealed the truth, saying that the hero did not have a heart disease at all, his heart would be recovered by the health team later, and he was deceived.
The poor cannon fodder was shaking with anger.
"Don't you dare slander him!"
When Ana Shen saw this, his eyes went dark.
It was difficult for him to understand what kind of mental state the author was in when he wrote such a plot.
However, this is just the appetizer.
The male protagonist then gathered the three kings - a super powerful escaped experimental murderer, a swindler who was keen on cosplaying as a good baby to find a mother for himself and then killed his mother, and a cold-blooded arsonist who loved playing with fire since he was a child and dreamed of lighting a black star.
Under the command of the male protagonist, the four of them fought their way from District 13 of Vice City to District 1, fighting against everything in the world, even kicking any passing dog.
Normally, it should be like this.
However, when they reached District 7, everything was going well, and the big villain was about to be dealt with, the author ruined the ending.
He suddenly wrote that the male protagonist wanted to destroy everything.
The plot then took a sharp turn for the worse, with the hero destroying all the forces himself, and when the Star Police came to his door, he put a gun to his chin.
——The full text is over.
To this day, Ana Shen can still remember the shock, pain, confusion, and anger he felt when he saw the words “end of full text”.
But later on, when I thought about it carefully, it didn't really ruin the protagonist's character by doing such a thing.
A madman who does whatever he wants, a pleasure-seeking criminal who finds happiness in experiments.
The unlucky guy that Shen Yan transformed into was his first long-term experimental subject.
The timing of his coming through was unfortunate, as it happened to be during the couple's "honeymoon period".
She has been rescued by the male protagonist, and with his encouragement, she regained her confidence and started looking for a job.
The male protagonist lent him six bottles of nutrient solution and told him to knock on the door and ask for more if he didn't have enough. When Shen Yan came here, the original owner had already drunk five bottles, and the last one was placed on the table.
Shen Yan pondered for a long time, and only drank the nutrient solution when the sun went down.
It's not a big problem.
he……
A little idea.
——
The old resettlement building only costs three hundred star coins per month.
In exchange for cheap rent, residents here need to sign a contract, one of the clauses of which is sinister.
The lease term starts at ten years, and within ten years, the landlord has the right to dispose of the tenant's body.
During this period, if you want to move out, the penalty you have to pay ranges from 500,000 to 1 million.
An ordinary job in District 13 only pays around two thousand.
This is one of the reasons why Ana Shen pretended to faint, preparing to lure the male lead into the trap.
There is no possibility that Ruan Zhixian will let go of the prey he has set his sights on.
Even if he managed to leave, the landlord would bring him back and make him continue to live there.
It’s better to follow the plot and find a chance to leave.
There were sounds of light footsteps and the rubbing of clothes coming from downstairs.
Ana Shen closed his eyes and breathed lightly.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and finally stopped at the stairs, about three or four steps away from Ana Shen.
Ana Shen closed her eyes, and all her feelings became exceptionally clear.
The dust floating in the air and the unpleasant musty smell penetrated into the nose, and incompatible with it was an extremely subtle and refreshing smell.
Shen Yan couldn't tell what the smell was, but there was no doubt that it was indeed refreshing in such an old space.
But he just stopped there.
Ana Shen’s heart was pounding.
With Ruan Zhixian's ability, it was not difficult to tell that he was pretending to be unconscious, but based on their current relationship, the original owner should have directly knocked on the door and asked him for nutrient solution instead of lying here pretending to be pitiful and playing tricks.
Ten minutes later, there was still no movement around.
The cold concrete floor was warmed by Ana Shen's body.
What's going on?
Shen Yan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he opened his eyes a little.
She met the male protagonist's calm eyes without any emotion.
I don’t know how long I watched like this.
A thin layer of sweat oozed out of Shen Yan's forehead and the back of his neck.
"ah……"
Shen Yan opened his mouth weakly, imitating the way his uncle looked before his death, tremblingly raised a finger, and then dropped it with no strength left.
Perhaps she had no strength to open her eyes completely, and they remained drooped, looking extremely pitiful under the cover of her long and thick eyelashes.
The text does not give a specific description of the cannon fodder's appearance. After Shen Yan came through, he was surprised to find that the body was his body and the face was also his face.
So it is very easy to control.
You just have to overcome that hurdle in your heart.
Ana Shen was almost laughing at her own acting.
When people are pushed to a certain point, they can do anything.
Fortunately, the effect is good.
Ana Shen paid close attention to Ruan Zhixian's reaction.
Ruan Zhixian inherited the advantages of both his parents. He had a delicate and handsome face with a bit of gloomy and sickly air, but his height of about 1.9 meters and his nascent double-door shoulders neutralized this.
The corners of his lips curled up subtly, and his bony right hand took off Shen Yan's black-framed glasses, pushed his hair back, and completely revealed Shen Yan's face.
The action is not light.
He slowly folded the legs of his glasses and put them in his pocket, stood up, grabbed one of Ana Shen’s arms, and easily pulled him up.
With another pull, Ana Shen, who was lying on the ground, was completely held in his arms.
"Brother." Ruan Zhixian said as he opened the door, "You are not suitable to be an actor."
Shen Yan: …
Very good and straightforward.
The first psychological analysis in my life was a complete failure.
-
There were two bottles of nutrient solution left in Ruan Zhixian's refrigerator, and he took them out, one green and one milky white.
Ruan Zhixian asked: "Which one would you drink, apple or milk?"
Ana Shen’s head almost dropped to his chest, and he stammered, “All, all is fine.”
Ruan Zhixian didn’t say much and handed the milk to Ana Shen.
They looked at each other in silence.
The resettlement houses are not very big, just a small house of about 20 square meters. There is a desk next to the bed and a coffee table not far away. The two people sit on the floor, and they can only curl up their legs and cannot stretch them out.
There are several pairs of sneakers on the shoe rack next to the door, and promotional posters of popular movie stars are posted on the wall. The computer on the desk should be a second-hand item, and the case looks a bit shabby.
When Shen Yan entered the room, he took a quick glance while Ruan Zhixian wasn't paying attention. After noticing the lifelike decorations inside, he couldn't help but sigh:
He is really good at acting.
The author did not reveal Ruan Zhixian's specific identity and background, only saying that he was from District 1, had mysophobia and obsessive-compulsive disorder, and his behavior and dress were incompatible with the people in District 13, and one could tell at a glance that he had an extraordinary aura.
He knew very well the principle of adapting to local customs and avoiding being outspoken, and in less than a day he changed himself and successfully pretended to be a kind-hearted man who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
During the day, he does good deeds and takes part-time jobs to earn a little money, and at night he travels around various corners of District 13 to have fun.
For example, they could cleverly sow discord between two gang members and cause a fight between them, or randomly select a few lucky people in the back streets to play the human nature game.
Later, he got tired of these games and started thinking about more interesting ways to play.
Create gods.
There is no doubt that he is God and he will become God.
It is still in the gestational stage, and the concept of deification will be truly clarified after the original body dies.
After drinking a tube of nutrient solution, Ana Shen gently put the finished nutrient solution back on the table and glanced at Ruan Zhixian quickly.
Who knew that Ruan Zhixian was actually looking at him, his dark eyes smiling but with a hidden meaning.
Ana Shen lowered his head again and said dryly: “I, I am looking for a job. I can definitely pay you back the nutrient solution I owed you before. I am just... too hungry today.”
Ruan Zhixian leaned back. After taking off his baggy baseball jacket, he was only wearing a sleeveless black T-shirt. Around his neck hung an old silver chain, with three or four feather pendants hanging down to his chest from the bottom of the chain.
He picked one up and fiddled with it between his fingers, saying nonchalantly, "Brother told me the same thing last time."
Ana Shen pursed her lips awkwardly, her voice so low that it was almost inaudible.
“S-Sorry.”
Ruan Zhixian smiled and said, "I don't mean to blame you, I'm just a little angry. If you were hungry, you could just tell me directly. Why lie?"
"Or..."
He suddenly moved closer and stared straight at Ana Shen.
"You're not him?"
Ana Shen felt relieved.
Great, you’ve taken the bait.
