Chapter 14 Everyone's future...Are you perverts?
Is it really just a comic?
Li Ming's thoughts were in a mess. All the problems he had encountered and struggled with before suddenly appeared on the surface of his sea of consciousness like dense, rising deep-sea bubbles.
In recent days, he has indeed encountered many unanswered questions.
Why did it happen to me? How did I die? What happened in the world that caused the timeline to restart... These questions were like stubborn and hard stones pushed onto the beach by the waves of thought, piling up more and more...
But there was no reply yet.
Li Ming's expression suddenly became serious, but he still had no answer. No one could answer his doubts, just as no one could listen to his confusion about the comics forum.
"Don't think about anything else."
Li Ming gently patted his cheeks with both hands and murmured: "It doesn't matter whether it is a created comic world or not, this is still your home..."
He comforted himself in this way.
Although such consolation is obviously somewhat pale and powerless, it is better than nothing.
Li Ming initially thought that the comics might be stories created by a cartoonist from a higher dimensional world after observing his own world, but when he noticed the problem of the passage of time——
The previous thought was abruptly broken.
One day in the comics is one month in reality... He had seen this situation before. It was because the plot of one day was too dense that it had to be divided into several chapters.
But the problem is:
Why does the passage of time speed up or slow down depending on the plot of the comics released?
The first thing that came to Li Ming's mind was that "his own world is just a comic world created by others." Otherwise, he really couldn't explain why this phenomenon would occur. But is it really [just a comic world]?
He recalled the various kinds of people he had met on his way to growing up, those specific and vivid people...
There was no way they were phantoms.
Then Li Ming's eyes became firm again. He held the mouse tightly in his hand, as if he was holding a powerful weapon.
The comics forum is indeed the most powerful "weapon" in his hands.
Li Ming took a deep breath and moved his mouse to open the [Comics] page. He was now very curious about what the updated fourth episode of "Misty City" told -
The first thing that appeared before his eyes was:
My own face that hasn't woken up yet.
Then he looked at himself in the comic and rubbed the quilt in a daze, then "shamelessly" prepared to take a nap.
Li Ming: ...ah this.
[Hahaha, cute]
[Li Ming's behavior is like a cat, I want to kiss him~]
[The change in Li Ming's reputation
Before going to bed: Boss, he is definitely a boss,
After Sleep: A cat who wants to sleep in. 】
【Cat, what can I do wrong?.jpg】
…
Li Ming's cheeks instantly turned red: "...Are you perverts?"
He suddenly turned off the computer screen, and his aura instantly became extremely depressing:
It's so socially dead, I really want to die!
Li Ming curled up into a ball with a blank look in his eyes. He was just like the paper man that often appeared in cartoons, who was hit so hard that his whole body turned white, and he only needed a gust of wind to blow him away.
Calm down, Li Ming.
Li Ming turned on his computer again with a fearless attitude. With trembling fingers, he clicked back to the original interface and tried to comfort himself: Isn't it just cute... Isn't it just a cat sculpture...
Think about Jiang Huai, his situation is definitely worse than mine.
Li Mingt gritted his teeth and tried to convince himself. However, under the precise attack of the comic barrage, he gradually lost his brilliance and finally chose to close the barrage expressionlessly.
Li Ming: ...Hehe.
Out of sight, out of mind.
The moment the barrage disappeared, Li Ming even felt that his soul had been redeemed. He realized that his life could still be saved, because at least -
He did not die in his own world.
"Alas..." Li Ming sighed heavily, and then he comforted himself feebly: It's okay, it's just a matter of time. The moment you knew you were the protagonist of the comic, you should have accepted it.
Think about the comics you read in the past.
You are just a paper man now, and paper men have no sense of shame. You cannot see yourself as a human being, you have to see yourself as a virtual product...
You are really just a virtual product!
Li Ming's eyes looked ready to die for a second:
He will not reveal anything now that he can see the forum.
After a series of psychological hints, Li Ming's mind finally regained its composure. He fumbled with the rather simple platform functions in front of him with practice, and modified the [bullet screen] settings in the familiar place.
Now, as long as he doesn't actively click the [Bullet Ball], the barrage will not pop up.
"Great, now we can finally focus on the plot."
Li Ming said with dead eyes and expressionless face.
He carefully browsed the contents of the comic and found that the subsequent development of the comic was similar to what he knew. He watched himself wake up Wei Zhehan and Zhou Haoyu, and watched the three of them talk incoherently.
So this is what their dormitory conversations look like in the eyes of others.
Li Ming inexplicably felt a sense of mystery: No wonder a junior student who passed by commented that the atmosphere in their dormitory was very harmonious and everyone looked very comfortable...
[Ahhh, will Xiao Wei go with Li Ming this time? ]
[It’s so funny, the dorm head is still thinking about his girlfriend. ]
[But we will break up soon (dog head)]
[Li Ming actually has a younger sister. If his younger sister is studying in the south, does that mean the subsequent plot will involve the southern base before the disaster? ]
[Great! Both of them did not miss the last chance to contact their families this time.]
…
I suddenly discovered a shocking piece of news.
Li Ming blinked his eyes in amusement and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth: Their poor dormitory head was about to break up with his girlfriend before he could even warm her hands.
It's really unfortunate.
"Hahaha..." Li Ming couldn't help laughing. But after laughing, his attention couldn't help but stay on the word "sister". He was really worried about Li Yixi.
"No, no."
Li Ming suddenly sobered up and slapped his cheeks with both hands, and said to himself softly: "Don't read comics for entertainment. We need to collect intelligence. Yes, collect intelligence."
So Li Ming frowned and continued to slide the mouse down.
But he soon saw something unusual: Jiang Huai's childhood friend had sent him a special text message before the communication went down -
[Ah Huai, I feel like the time is wrong now. ]
Looking at the content of the text message, Li Ming's heart suddenly started pounding. It took him a long time to finally find his voice: "Could it be... not just me..."
Am I not the only one who knows about the world replay?
Li Ming couldn't wait to click on the barrage:
[Ahhh, Xiao Yiyan, you're back! You're finally alive again]
[I miss you so much, Lao Xiao QAQ]
[Without Lao Xiao = Jiang Huai has no substitute = the protagonist group has no male mother = the readers have lost their male mother (heartbroken)]
[I don’t think Xiao sent a text message to Jiang Huai before? 】
[Can anyone explain to me, does the world replay mentioned by Lao Zei not include memories? Will many people return to the beginning with their memories? ]
[I see the dawn of hope, the hope of a happy ending]
…
The comments posted by comic readers are varied, but Li Ming has keenly extracted some valuable parts from them:
Xiao Yiyan is Jiang Huai’s childhood friend and one of the protagonists of the previous comic. He has a very good relationship with Jiang Huai. He died in the previous work and it is very likely that he has returned to the beginning of the story with vague memories.
Li Ming swallowed instinctively. He suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of relief: it turned out that he was not the only one who knew his fate and had the ability to change it.
He continued to scroll down the comics, unable to conceal his excitement.
This time, Li Ming ignored the existence of the [bullet screen ball] and only focused on the content of the comic. After the previous bullet screens, he found that due to the word limit, the bullet screen lacked information compared to forum posts.
Comic readers in another world seem to be more inclined to express their momentary thoughts in the barrage and post rigorous and accurate analysis or predictions in the forum.
The content of the subsequent chapters of the comic is similar to what Li Ming expected.
But when Li Ming saw the monster teacher that Jiang Huai faced later, he couldn't help but take a breath: It was Jiang Huai, his ability to respond on the spot and his decision-making judgment were really solid...
It's like dancing on a tightrope.
Li Ming thought that he could not cope with the situation as well as he did. He continued to look down and suddenly noticed Zhou Haoyu's mental activity while queuing in the cafeteria.
"So this is why you gave me the leadership..." Li Ming murmured in surprise.
Zhou Haoyu, his dormitory head, quickly adjusted his team positioning after a series of cognitive overturns.
He realized that he was not suitable to be the captain of this outing team at the moment, so he obediently handed over the leadership to the person he "thought" he was supposed to protect in the past.
Although Li Ming was quite critical of Zhou Haoyu's positioning of him as a 'protected person', when he saw Zhou Haoyu's cognitive transformation clearly demonstrated -
He couldn't help but let out a sound of approval.
The people in their dormitory are so amazing. No wonder the forums kept saying that the rest of the people in the dormitory were all "protagonist templates". How can such people not be considered protagonists?
Li Ming was eager to try.
The excellence of his teammates strongly aroused his desire for challenge. Li Ming thought that he might be inferior to Jiang Huai, but he would never be a drag on the team.
The end of the fifth chapter of the comic happens to be the scene where the "Eyes of Truth" appear.
Seeing this, Li Ming couldn't help but guess:
The plot progress of the comics may be based on one's own actions.
"We really encountered a lot of things today."
Li Ming leaned back in his chair with relief, and laughed. Today, they first faced a communication outage, then they had to go to find their junior's roommate, and then they had to go to the cafeteria to explore the way...
There was no free time all day.
What surprised him the most was the comments Zhou Haoyu and He Rui made about him in the school cafeteria. They actually said that the moment he stood up, he felt like the "center of the world"...
Well, a little happy.
Li Ming crossed his arms contentedly, but he still did not forget his main purpose this time: he wanted to know how he died, what happened after his death, and what everyone's condition was at that time.
He skillfully clicked into the [Forum] module.
The discussion on the comics forum was just as lively as he expected:
[Li Ming's talent sequence is A-01. How could I be so worthy as to see this theoretical sequence that only exists on paper and pen of scientists in my lifetime?]
[Support Li Ming is the prophet of civilization~]
[I now sincerely believe that Jiang Huai destroyed the world and restarted the timeline in order to better save the world. The talent sequence of insight sequence, the protagonist group whose memories may be preserved... His world replay this time is really wonderful]
[Jiang Huai, I was wrong. I wrongly blamed you. You are the real savior QAQ]
[“You are not the Messiah, but you are indeed the savior. Because the Messiah only exists in the past of mankind, and you are in the future.” — From the little witch. ]
[Little witch, I am going crazy wanting to see the little witch now ah ah ah (distorted) (dark) (crawling)]
[Why was Li Ming so strong, but died so miserably? ]
[Do you remember that Li Ming was already dead at this time in the previous game? Does anyone find Li Ming's return strange? He did something completely different from himself in the previous timeline.]
…
"Hmm..." Li Ming suddenly stopped moving when he saw this.
After browsing the titles of several forum posts, his head started to ache: so much information, so many unfamiliar terms, so many unfamiliar people...
It’s over. It seems I can’t go to bed early today.
Li Ming lay on the table with a look of death. However, just as he moved the mouse and was about to click on the first forum post to collect information, a hot post suddenly came up -
His eyes widened instantly and he felt like he was falling into an ice cellar.
The title of the hot post that was pushed to the top is:
[I'm betting on the complete hardcover comic signed by Lao Zei. I'm betting on the timeline of this time. The order of death of the four people in the dormitory is: Wei Zhehan < Zhou Haoyu < Jiang Huai < Li Ming]
