[Ding, your system is online. Hello host, system 123 is at your service.] A mechanical voice sounded.
Lin Yitang's pupils shrank slightly. Who was speaking? Was there someone else in this room? She frowned and looked around. The white gauze curtains moved slightly in the wind, but she could not find any trace of anyone.
A cheerful mechanical voice sounded again.
[This is System 123. I am a consciousness that exists within your mind. Nice to meet you, please take care of me.]
System? Lin Yitang, influenced by her cousin, had also read some imaginative novels and naturally understood the system. It seemed that this arrival was indeed inextricably linked to the system.
Lin Yitang: "Hello, 123."
[Hello, host. You don't need to say it out loud. Just call my name in your mind and think about what you want to say to me. 123 will know.]
Lin Yitang nodded slightly and asked according to its instructions: [I came here because of you, right? Can you tell me why I came here?]
[It's like this. I was in the small world looking for a new host when I saw you get hit by a car and fall in a pool of blood. To save the host, 123 bound himself to the host.]
After answering her question, 123 felt relieved. His host was very smart and guessed the medium for her to come here at once. Thinking of the mission of this world, 123 sighed humanely, and then thought hopefully: The host is so smart, the mission of this world should be successful, right?
The series of shocks today were so great that even someone as resilient as Lin Yitang felt her body shake. She took a deep breath, her tone suppressed but still holding a glimmer of hope: "So am I still alive?"
After asking, thinking of the glaring pool of blood and the nerves that were still aching, an unprecedented fatigue surged into his heart. For a moment, Lin Yitang didn't even have the courage to listen to the system's answer.
[The host's original body suffered a severe impact and has been shattered. It has been cremated by your friend.] The system was silent for a moment, and then spoke cautiously.
Lin Yitang closed her eyes slightly, the emotions in her heart made her feel a little breathless. Something seemed to be flickering at the corners of her eyes. She felt inexplicably absurd. Why did such an unexpected disaster happen to her?
After a long silence, a slightly hoarse voice sounded in the room, "Can you let me go back? Or what do I need to do to go back?"
[No solution at the moment]
Lin Yitang straightened up slightly and said hesitantly: [For now?]
[Yes, 123 has already spent a lot of energy in bringing the host to this world. Now the energy in 123's body is not enough to send the host back to the original world intact.] 123 said somewhat frustratedly.
"However, 123 is a wishing system. If the host can complete the corresponding tasks, 123 will recover its energy. At that time, the host can make a wish to 123, and 123 will bring the host back." Speaking of this, 123 shook off his previous gloom and said happily.
Mission? It was pretty much what he had guessed. Lin Yitang lowered his eyes.
[This world is made up of a series of small worlds. Systems like 123 are responsible for maintaining the normal operation of the world, and the host is the helper that 123 searches for in each world to prevent the abnormal demise of the world.]
"Why do you think I can do it?" Lin Yitang didn't get so surprised by the news that he lost his mind. Instead, he calmly asked back.
After all, even a supernatural creature like the system cannot solve the problem on its own, and an ordinary person like her would not blindly believe that she can complete such a task.
Sensing her thoughts, 123 reassured her, "Don't worry, host. Not everyone is eligible to be chosen. The fact that you're here means you've been chosen not only by the system but also by the world consciousness. Others will be excluded. So far, you're the only one who's been able to enter this small world."
Lin Yiran completely thought it was encouraging him and did not comment.
123 saw that she was still calm, but he didn't say anything more. He conveyed the mission and the relationship between the characters to her mind.
A long paragraph of text appeared in Lin Yitang's mind, and she stared at the information closely.
[This world's Child of Fortune is a man named Wen Hangxing, son of business tycoon Wen Zeli. His life should have been smooth sailing, but at the age of twenty, he jumped from a rooftop. With the death of this Child of Fortune, this world collapsed. Therefore, the host's mission is to prevent Wen Hangxing from committing suicide and allow him to die of old age...]
From the densely packed text, Lin Yitang also unexpectedly found information about his original body.
The original owner of this body was also named Lin Yitong. She married Wen Zeli, Wen Hangxing's father. On the day they got the marriage certificate, Wen Zeli went on a business trip, which happened to coincide with what happened to her today. Wen Hangxing was dissatisfied with her father's remarriage, so she went home to pack up her things and left. The original owner was not liked by her husband and stepson, and eventually died of depression.
Lin Yitang suddenly remembered the small bottle on the bedside table and asked, "123, do you know where Lin Yitang in this world has gone?"
[123 brought the host to this place and found that she had lost all signs of life.] The mechanical voice was filled with regret.
Do you know how she died?
[Sorry, host. The system's capabilities are limited and cannot access information outside of the mission, so 123 is not very clear.]
Lin Yitang remained silent, her eyelids drooping, hiding the emotion in her eyes. The curtains in the room were drawn tightly, not a single ray of light could penetrate. Lin Yitang stood in the shadows, as if shrouded in darkness, and sadness filled the air around her.
