Recap
As soon as Chu Shici ran into the space to borrow a computer, he found that the system was back. Now he is lying on the sofa with a worn-out look on his face, with a chocolate bar in his mouth.
Chu Shici looked at it up and down, “One cigarette afterwards, will you be as happy as a god?”
System held the chocolate bar and sighed sadly.
[Happy for fart, when we got to bed last night, I realized that my boss is also a fucking 0. We laid side by side and waited for a long time. Then it asked me if I wanted to do it.]
‘Fuck?’
[I’ve taken all the medicine, what else can I do! Damn it, I did it for love, the more I think about it, the more I lose. I’m warning you, don’t mess with me, I’m very irritable now! I got some news, and I will tell you when I’ve calmed down.]
The system kicked over the chair: [Fuck! What I thought was a sure-win deal turned out to end with me, gritting my teeth and becoming a 1. Damn it! Truly wasted!]
Chu Shici: …
___
Seeing the system jumping around and cursing, Chu Shici felt that it was really pitiful.
‘Didn’t you ask for the model number before you climbed into bed with it?’
[It has never slept with other systems before. Who knew that it looks like a 1 but is actually a 0.]
The system tugged at its fingers, [You are a 0, I am your system, I am a 0. Your old attack is 1. It was your husband’s system before. Logically speaking, it should also be a 1.]
[It turned out to be a better 0 than me! It’s a fucking 0! Lying in bed refusing to get up. Even if I didn’t take the initiative to be 1 last night, it would force me to be a 1. It was quite refreshing, it felt really good, but I felt so sad. Good brother, please coax me.]
Chu Shici couldn’t hold it back anymore, he covered his mouth and laughed. The system bounced up, rushed over and beat him hard.
When the system finally calmed down, Chu Shici asked curiously: “Is there a photo of your boss? I want to see it.”
The system rummaged through the photo album for a while and handed the phone to him.
[We took a photo together, you see it is so round, the color is so full, and it looks so beautiful. Its number is s111. It contains such a high number of 1s but it is actually a 0. Who would have thought? Alas, what can I do in the future? I don’t want to be a 1 all my life, I won’t be happy at all.]
Looking at the two small balls of light stuck together in the photo, Chu Shici fell into deep thought.
To be honest, he didn’t recognize which ball was the system, they looked exactly the same.
Chu Shici picked up the system and looked around, “Let me ask you a question, how can two balls have sex?”
The system flipped through its phone, [The tv* and np* that I have treasured for many years, the leading actors are all very round, take it and watch it.]
*(both tv and np are in english in the original text)
*(harem/reverse harem, it’s basically like 2p means 2 people, 3p means 3 people, np means multiple people)
‘Tv?’
[Oh, tongvideo.]
Chu Shici:…
Bilingual in Chinese and English, it really is a talent.
It was his first time watching a Tong film and he was a little excited. Chu Shici took a deep breath and clicked on the video.
In the video, a white light ball was lying on the bed. After a while, another yellow light ball bounced over, jumped on the white light ball and started rubbing against it.
Chu Shici pulled the progress bar. Five minutes had passed and they were still rubbing against each other. It just changed from two balls to four balls.
It looked similar to small glutinous rice balls squeezing together, which mixed with yellow and white.
Chu Shici asked doubtfully, “Is the foreplay so long?”
[Where is the foreplay? This film starts with the main scene, it is very exciting.]
‘…’
[This is a high-end production. You have to pay to watch and download it. I shared it with you because you are my brother. How about it, treasure? Is my collection good?]
‘It’s very beautiful, I’m so hungry.’
[?]
Chu Shici completely lost interest in the film. He returned the phone and asked, ‘What other information did your wife reveal?’
[…Don’t remind me of this cruel fact over and over again. If you want to piss me off, you can just say so.]
According to the system, the boss sold his body to get him on board the pirate ship last night. It tearfully became a 1 and squeezed out a bunch of information.
Their previous guess was correct, Zhe-ge was indeed the former leader of the combat team. He had a chance to run for president, but he had no interest in getting involved.
After the new president took office, they proposed to repeal the protection law. He disagreed and challenged the president.
His boss told him this several times, but he was stubborn as a donkey. He didn’t agree to it till the end, then he was tricked by someone, and ended up like this.
‘Protection law?’
[This is the Small World Creature Protection Law. Advanced systems can control the time of the small world and tamper with their memories and lives. There was a scumbag host who once used the system to hypnotize all the residents of a small world to have sex with him.]
The system sighed a little, [What a pity for your Zhe-ge. If he had run for president at that time, he would not have suffered like this now.]
Chu Shici clicked his tongue.
He knows Zhe-ge’s temperament very well, and he is the type of person who does not like conflict nor competition. He is like an invincible sword, but unless he is forced into a fight, he will never pull the sword out of its sheath in his life.
Without any incentives, it would be useless for Zhe-ge to run for president. He is not motivated and finds it too troublesome to use his brain. He can’t beat those old fools.
Chu Shici thought for awhile.
The first time he met Zhe-ge was when he was dragged into the woods and molested as a child. The small Zhe-ge, who looked like he was only a teenager, rushed out to save him.
Could it be that their initial encounter was also a trap set by others for Zhe-ge?
He found that the system was peeking at him.
Maybe it was afraid that he would be angry with his husband if he thought that the reason his life was so miserable was because he was implicated in the power struggle.
Chu Shici didn’t think about it that way.
Even if he was really implicated, it wasn’t Zhe-ge’s fault. Zhe-ge really wants to save him. They are all victims and there is no need to fight among themselves.
He knows exactly who he should hate, those idiots.
After his Zhe-ge finishes the punishment worlds, he will go back and rip off their heads.
___
As usual, Shen Xiuzhe stood in front of the canvas and prepared to paint.
The little speaker asked him for a leave of absence and said that he could not deliver paint to him because he had something to do today.
Shen Xiuzhe tilted his head slightly when he heard this, “What are you busy with?”
Chu Shici opened his notebook and poked his head out of the system space, “I want to sort out the clues. We can’t be locked up here forever. If we want to get out, we must at least figure out where this place is and what they want to do.”
Shen Xiuzhe put down his brush and replied with a sarcastic smile, “Can you escape even if you figured it out?”
“What if it works? You can’t just sit there and wait for death. What if one day they become bold, ignore your threats and do something to you? Rotten people have no self-control. The longer you stay here, the more dangerous it will be.”
The little speaker knocked on the table, “You are my Zhe-ge, and I won’t let anyone else’s dirty hands touch you!”
The last time Shen Xiuzhe heard similar words, he was watching a domineering president confess his love to his school’s flower*. Unfortunately, the school flower is in love with him.
*(most beautiful girl in school)
In order to get rid of the entanglement between the school beauty and his love rival, he agreed to the school beauty’s request and painted a portrait of her.
This was his first time painting a real person. His adoptive father thought he had fallen in love prematurely and punished him by kneeling in the yard all night. He is not stupid, he will not kneel.
Shen Xiuzhe knelt for less than half an hour, showing his rebellious attitude. As soon as his adoptive father left, he climbed over the wall and sneaked out to drink and club.
At that time, he had just come into contact with the outside world, and everything was new to him.
He ordered a cocktail and watched the men and women on the dance floor kissing under the dim lights. Hormones are floating all around in the bar, and the darkness amplifies desires infinitely.
Completely different from the clean and beautiful natural scenery, here he saw the beauty of the human body and the ugliness of human nature.
During that time, the paintings painted by Shen Xiuzhe had an indescribable luster. The style changed so much that my adoptive father was so angry that he burned all the paintings.
The sound of a plug hitting the table pulled Shen Xiuzhe out of his memories.
The little speaker was still blasting harsh words, saying that he would kill anyone who touched Zhe-ge.
Shen Xiuzhe flicked a finger against the speaker, and the little speaker was flicked until he stopped cursing.
No matter how domineering the little speaker’s words are, this palm-sized little thing sounds extremely cute.
Chu Shici rubbed his head. Seeing that Shen Xiuzhe began to ignore him, he turned on the computer and continued to organize the files.
After Mr. Wang, who lived next door, collected all the cards and left, the radio had broadcasted “Mr. Wang, Room 10, Building 2.”
It seems that there is more than one building where people are imprisoned, otherwise there would be no need to have a number.
The other rooms around them seemed empty for the time being. The person who recorded the meals seemed to have never called out the daily packages for the three rooms on the left, front left and front right.
Chu Shici stuck his head out and asked, “Zhe-ge, have you ever heard anyone call out the room numbers of our other neighbors?”
Shen Xiuzhe shook his head slightly.
“No one else lives here?”
“I don’t know whether that was the case before. After I was imprisoned, the person who recorded the meals only asked the room opposite ours and the room on the right.”
“What do you mean? You didn’t stay here from the beginning?”
“Yes. I originally lived on a certain floor downstairs. Later, because of some things that happened, I was locked up here.”
Mentioning this, Shen Xiuzhe pursed his lips uncomfortably.
Seeing his reaction, Chu Shici understood instantly.
What prompted Zhe-ge to change rooms was probably because he failed to escape and became blinded.
In this way, Shen Xiuzhe’s hesitant behavior makes sense.
Zhe-ge could see after he was first captured. The bathroom in the room where he originally lived was opaque.
After they moved the blind man into a new room, he thought that the bathroom was the same as before, so he deliberately closed and locked the door.
Looking at it this way, the interior layout of each room is not the same.
DOes this have something to do with the last person who was locked in this room?
Chu Shici is thinking hard.
Shen Xiuzhe didn’t ‘escape’ in the small room, he escaped by jumping over the wall through the public hall. So the fact that they changed his room, is not to stop him from escaping.
What are the factors that trigger the conditions for changing rooms?
Chu Shici marked the text in red. Are there any hidden rules here?
For example, if you escape once, you will be dragged up to the upper floor.
This guess seems to align with the A, B and C set meal system.
The person who records the set meals goes down one level at a time. If he wants to increase the chance of getting set meal C, he must keep trying to escape until he reaches the top floor.
Once you get to the top floor, you can get set meal C every time. Drawing cards three times a day, no matter how unlucky you are, the possibility of collecting four small animals should be much faster than drawing cards once every few days.
Other than that, from the information they’ve gathered so far, in this building, there are one or more public halls. Every once in a while, ten people will be selected in batches and allowed to move freely inside.
Near some rooms, there is a place called the ‘Monster Room’. Screams and roars of wild animals can often be heard at night, but no one knows what is inside.
The area of this building is much larger than Chu Shici imagined.
The four animals on the small metal box for collecting cards refer to four types of people respectively.
Shen Xiuzhe is a chicken. Based on his experience, they can rule out the possibility of being a little yellow chicken.
Not an ordinary animal chicken, not a little yellow chicken… if they were to think about it with the characteristics of Zhe-ge in mind…
Chu Shici thought of a fable.
“The Chicken that Lays Golden Eggs”
It’s been so long that he can’t remember it clearly. He vaguely remembered that the story was about a man who had a chicken that could only lay golden eggs. He thought the chicken was too slow to lay eggs, so he killed the chicken and wanted to take out the golden eggs in its belly.
Chu Shici looked at Shen Xiuzhe.
He doesn’t know if they call Zhe-ge a chicken because he can ‘lay golden eggs’ and is able to bring them money or are they referring to the fact that he is imprisoned here and that someone wanted to ‘kill the chicken who lay the golden eggs’.
The door to the small room is rarely opened. It is always locked, and the information available is very limited.
In contrast, Chu Shici heard a lot of information about the outside world through the TV news.
After the neighbor across the corridor opposite their room was taken away at night, a few days later, someone outside found the body of a police officer in a trash can.
The timing was coincidental, maybe the dead detective was the neighbor in the opposite room.
Now another person suspected of being a policeman has been imprisoned. Is that room specially used to detain policemen?
A tourist bus exploded and dozens of people disappeared. When the news reported the incident, it was followed by the sentence, ‘Don’t participate in dangerous games.’
Imagine Life Company is researching holographic games and says that within ten years, game pods will be available to everyone.
Chu Shici has a bold guess. Could this actually be a holographic game world called “Dangerous Game”?
Something happened to Zhe-ge, and he couldn’t escape, he was stuck here.
This is just his conjecture, which is currently unfounded and is purely speculation.
The news discusses the impact of excessive entertainment on society and individuals almost every day. It seems that there is a ‘disease’ in the world that urgently needs to be eradicated.
There may be something wrong with the world outside, but Shen Xiuzhe doesn’t know.
He has been locked up in the ‘sterile world’ created by his adoptive father for many years, and his living environment can be described as isolated from the rest of the world.
He has fallen out of touch with society. He doesn’t understand many things, and there’s no point in asking him.
System strolled by and was hugged by Chu Shici.
He was deep in thought while rubbing the system.
Zhe-ge’s adoptive father obviously has a strong desire to control.
Shen Xiuzhe was kept under house arrest until he reached adulthood and briefly left his adoptive father’s control. He is more like a tool used for painting than an adopted son.
Zhe-ge is missing. His adoptive father cannot possibly not know about it.
But people here still dare to use his paintings to make money, which shows that no one reported the case. People outside do not know that he had been missing for a long time, they just assumed that he was concentrating on creating an artwork somewhere.
Chu Shici patted the system.
Damn it, no wonder Zhe-ge was captured without knowing what was going on.
There must be something wrong with his adoptive father. Even if the imprisoning of Zhe-ge had nothing to do with him, he still concealed the news of his adopted son’s disappearance.
Maybe he felt that Shen Xiuzhe was crooked and did not meet his expectations, so he simply got rid of this failure.
It may also be that Zhe-ge’s achievements were too high, which overshadowed his adoptive father, who was also a painter. The wave behind pushed the wave in front, but the wave in front could not handle the pressure and he simply killed him.
Chu Shici has almost figured out how Shen Xiuzhe came in.
But he still has no idea how to get out.
___
Probably because he wanted to find out what the other set meals are, when ordering at night, Officer Li across the door ordered set meal B.
This is the emperor’s new set meal. Thinking of Officer Li’s expression when he got the empty lunch box, Chu Shici felt a little sorry for him.
Shen Xiuzhe ordered set meal C as usual, but set meal C was out of stock. It seemed that a new person had moved in upstairs.
They imprisoned at least a dozen people. Even if the police in this world are slow, they should have discovered something unusual.
There may be a traitor within the organization, helping this group of criminals to cover up and hide information. It’s also possible that the police are already investigating, but haven’t gotten here yet.
Chu Shici was very optimistic.
Although it seems that all the ways out are blocked at present, as long as Zhe-ge keeps making money by painting, if nothing happens, he will definitely survive until the police rescue him.
The man delivering dinner opened the metal door and pushed the cart in.
He glanced at the little speaker placed on the table and said with a smile: “Playing house with a broken speaker. Is there something wrong with the great Painter Shen’s brain? It seems that it won’t work out unless we find a psychiatrist.”
The man fiddled with the little speaker twice, and when he saw Shen Xiuzhe, whose eyes were covered in white cloth, his eyes flashed with greed.
He walked over lightly and reached out to touch his face.
Shen Xiuzhe, who was painting, felt a source of heat approaching him. He quickly ducked sideways, his tone as cold as ever: “Get out.”
Chu Shici lay motionless on the table.
Without the man’s body to block him, he saw the scene outside through the half-open metal door.
There is a palm-sized sticker on the metal door of the opposite room. It is a cartoon puppy.
