——Am I dead?
Su Mingan's heart was still beating, and the feeling of powerlessness and death was still there. He found himself floating in the void.
He could feel the physiological fear, the fear and clamor of all the cells in his body for death. Death is an extremely terrifying thing for people.
"I just heard a sentence - 'The game begins'?" Su Mingan said to himself: "What is the game...?"
It was obvious that the moment he stepped out of the coffee shop, he was pulled from reality into a game. He was not sure about the purpose and source of this game, but his victory condition should be "avoiding Shen Xue's attack" or "killing Shen Xue", at least to ensure his survival.
Logically speaking, he should have been killed. But now that he was dead, two images appeared in front of him.
One is a picture of him standing on the street in the afternoon, and the text on the picture is [Archive time point 1·Street in the afternoon].
One is a picture of a room in the dark at night, and the text on the screen is [Save time point 2·Room at night].
Su Mingan's finger tentatively touched [Save Time Point 2·Room at Night]
…
He opened his eyes.
The vision in front of him was still a little blurry. Shen Xue was looking at him with a smile, holding a snack in her hand. This was half an hour ago, and he was in Shen Xue's room.
He seemed to have the ability to reload save files. After death, he could return to the previous point in time by selecting the corresponding time point.
He didn't know why his daily life had become like this, but he had to survive first to find out more information - he needed to avoid this girl who wanted to take his life at any time.
"Game?" Su Mingan took the snack and whispered tentatively, then heard the system prompt:
[Hint 01: You are currently in the world game novice level. ]
[Hint 02: Current goal: survive]
[Hint 03: You have triggered the clue mechanism. You can look for clues, change your actions, and achieve different plot endings! ]
[Hint 04: The currently achievable plot ending:
HE (Happy Ending): Angel's Heart
TE (True Ending): She Disappeared
NE (Normal Ending): Two-Hearted Man]
…It’s indeed a game.
According to the text description, this is the "Novice Level" and he is still confused.
Then, after the "novice level" is passed, there should be the so-called "Opening Ceremony of the Billion Human World Game", where the specific rules should be explained. There should be an explanation for the fact that he inexplicably started a game.
"Try some snacks, come on, ah——" Shen Xue said with a smile.
But when Su Mingan looked at her, he saw the words appearing in his vision:
[*Get clue 3: Strange bulge]
[(Strange bulge): I noticed that the skirt of the girl in front of me was bulging... What was hidden there? I was curious about it.]
[Clearance progress: 10%]
[The clues have been recorded in the clue column and can be checked at any time. ]
…
A "Clues" section appeared in the lower right corner of Su Mingan's vision. He could click it with a little thought and see the clues inside.
He put down the snack: "I'm going to the bathroom."
First, Shen Xue's skirt was bulging, obviously hiding the coma spray. Second, her relative Liu Anna was still in the kitchen, and he was at a disadvantage away from home. He needed to find a space that was isolated from the other party's sight.
He stood up and walked towards the locked room. When he passed by the clothes rack, he saw a snow-white work suit hanging on the rack with a tag on it.
[*Get clue 2: Vice President of Xiaoshu Academy of Sciences: Liu Anna]
[(Name tag): "Liu Anna, the person in charge of the double heart surgery"]
[Clearance progress: 20%]
…
He suddenly smelled a strange smell that went straight into his nose.
[*Get clue 3: Formalin]
[(Formaldehyde): Why is there a smell of formalin in Shen Xue's house? Could it be that...she also likes to eat formalin with her food? ]
[Definition: 35%-45% formaldehyde aqueous solution, colorless and transparent in appearance, corrosive, widely used, also used for corpse preservation.]
[Clearance progress: 30%]
Su Mingan quickly entered the bathroom and locked the door. The window was not high. Shen Xue's home was on the second floor. He should not be seriously injured if he jumped out of the window to escape.
He was standing on the tiles, his body hanging on the edge of the window, when his foot suddenly hit something.
...Is there a secret compartment?
Su Mingan stopped climbing over the window and opened the secret compartment under the tiles.
He found a pile of surgical instruments, anesthetics and other items packed in a tool box, as well as a diagnosis letter.
【Xiaoshu First People's Hospital:】
[Patient Shen Xue is currently receiving intermittent treatment in our hospital. Despite active treatment, her condition is deteriorating, so a critical illness notice has been issued.]
[We hereby inform you of the possible consequences...]
【……】
【…In summary, the patient voluntarily gave up chemotherapy and went through the discharge procedures. 】
[Patient's signature: Shen Xue]
…
A brief diagnosis letter.
Su Mingan's hands were shaking as he looked at the thin piece of paper.
…So that’s how it is.
Because her terminal illness was in the late stage, Shen Xue wanted to entrust Liu Anna, the vice president of the hospital, to perform surgery using her heart as an organ source to prolong her life.
That's why he died before.
Although this operation seems to have no scientific basis, people who are on the verge of death will fight to the death for it as long as they see the last straw.
