And what about that four-digit numbered system? How come there are two systems in this world?
It was late at night.
Just as 050 was trembling with anger, cold, and cursing nervously.
Perhaps due to her menstrual cycle, Yu Ning, who hadn't dreamed in a long time, actually dreamed intermittently of scenes from her past life.
The noise was intermittent, like an old phonograph being turned on.
