Chapter 102.1

102 Part 1

Before Su Yu could understand what was going on or respond, everything collapsed around him. After a torrent of dizziness, bright light entered his eyes.

Instinctively, he shut his eyes, gradually opening them when he adjusted to the light around him. The environment had transformed completely. Looking up, Su Yu felt a shock travel through his body.

Noon sunlight spilled through the windows, reaching every corner of the cla.s.sroom. Students were listening to their teacher quietly, occasionally whispering to each other.

Just when Su Yu was looking down at the closed textbook in front of him, he finally understood exactly what the words hed heard before meant.

Not much longer and an identical line appeared from the teacher, Liu Yang, please read this part of the lesson.

Su Yu sighed lightly. This time he didnt grab his cla.s.smates textbook, flipping to the right spot in his own book and reading it calmly.

Soon enough the cla.s.s ended. Su Yu called for the ball in exasperation. Where did you go?

This time he didnt have to wait long for the ball to show up with a giggle. I saw you were busy learning so I didnt want to distract you.

So what happened beforehand? Without wasting time, Su Yu went straight to the point.

My guess? This virtual world is set up in a cycle. When an important event happens, itll re-enter the designated beginning point. Real people in this world will not lose their memories, When instructing Su Yu in educational content like this, the balls tone became very formal. For differentiations sake, we call the pre-reset world Cycle One, and the current world Cycle Two.

Su Yu had already guessed as much, and what the ball was saying only affirmed what he was thinking. He ordered the ball, Go around and investigate what exactly everyone in this world was doing before the world collapsed.

The ball immediately scanned the huge amount of data it gathered earlier. According to my initial a.n.a.lysis, the people within my surveillance range there were nineteen people acting out of order. 11 people left school to escape to the internet cafe; 4 people argued with friends or family; 2 people lost sleep for unknown reasons; 1 person stayed overnight at the hospital for illness; 1 personcommitted suicide.

Hearing the last line, Su Yus brows leapt up. Who is that?

The person who b.u.mped into you on the street. His sister was involved in a car accident that day, so he probably couldnt take the blow The balls voice lowered too, like it had guessed something.

Narrowing his eyes, Su Yu breathed in deeply. Give Yu Fengs detailed files to me.

All right. The ball presented a digital display, showing the detailed information to its master.

Name: Yu Feng.

Age: 16

High School: Jinjiang High School

Household: Parents are both deceased, lives with his elder sister.

Really, this was all there was to the supposedly detailed information.

Reading this, Su Yu was silent for a moment. Then he issued an order. Open up surveillance again. Pay special attention to Yu Fengs situation. Report any oddities to me.

Yes! The ball accepted the order, and came back quickly. Master, although I only started monitoring Yu Feng starting at 18:34 during Cycle One without much understanding of his prior motion, I think his actions today were already abnormal.

Su Yu raised a brow. What is he doing?

He looks uneasy, like hes scared out of his wits. The ball reported honestly.

Su Yu clenched his fists unconsciously. He wanted to go visit this young man, but what if he wasnt his lover? Su Yu didnt plan to start trouble with anyone other than his lover in this world.

But from another point of view, if he really was his lover, would he really ignore him just because of a reason like that?

His thinking was obviously conflicted, leaving Su Yu to hesitate for once. The ball spoke up quietly after a moment, Master, even if hes not the protagonist he may very well be related to the formation and breaking of this virtual world. Investigating him is worthwhile. We just want to understand more about the situation, you dont have to do anything with him. Isnt it normal to communicate with your cla.s.smates? More importantly, its good for you to do something nice every once in a while.

Su Yus balled up fists finally loosened. It did seem he was complicating something that should be simple in the first place.

Why did he subconsciously a.s.sume that when he approached others it had to be flirting? Was it because in the previous worlds he was too focused on seduction that he treated it as part of him and his lovers daily routine?

Does Yu Feng have a cellphone? Tossing the thought away, Su Yu returned to the topic at hand.

Most high school students at this school didnt have cellphones, although the main character did have one.

No, he doesnt have the money for it, The ball swayed.

That was when the bell rang for cla.s.s. Su Yu could only sigh and focus back on cla.s.s again. When the bell rang again, he immediately stood up and walked out.
