The mind beca a bit clearer, and so previously stubborn issues now have new perspectives for understanding.
[You have activated a random reward from the system, you received a Random Reward Double Card (3/3) *1.]
[Random Reward Double Card (3/3): When completing a system task, you may choose to use this card. One random reward from the task’s rewards will be doubled. This card is usable three tis, limited to once per task.]
For Lin Li, who is lacking everything right now, this is pretty good stuff that can double three rewards.
With the recent sect competition task, as long as the result cos out with him in the top hundred, then [Physical Improvent: Wisdom Improvent 20%; Divine Sense ntal Enhancent 100%; Random Magical Artifact *1], doubling any of these three rewards would be a significant boost for Lin Li.
Wisdom ans intelligence, Divine Sense allows for easier use of abilities and artifacts, and the artifact itself is treasure.
After finishing moving the tables and setting the exam papers, Lin Li returned ho.
After dinner, Lin Li sat at ho, feeling sowhat at a loss.
Although this was just a small monthly exam, for Lin Li, it felt like a final-level major exam.
Honestly, Lin Li hadn’t put in this level of effort facing finals before.
He’d been studying intensely these past few days, and now suddenly there’s no need for that; Lin Li didn’t even bring his textbooks ho, feeling sowhat empty.
People really are too cheap.
Lin Li took out the ’Emotional Managent Bottle,’ its white cracks densely covering its surface.
Lin Li continued using it to absorb his emotions and feed them back to himself.
Crack.
After playing with himself for half an hour, the ’Emotional Managent Bottle,’ already at the edge, reached its limit. Lin Li felt the connection between him and it break, and the bottle was covered in white lines.
The ’Emotional Managent Bottle’ still retained the shape of a bottle. Being prepared, Lin Li went to the fridge, poured several boxes of duck blood into a basin, and buried it directly inside.
Hoping the confinent bottle can soon defeat the illness.
Now, Lin Li had nothing to do.
Seems like the only option is to play that ga.
Sleep Roulette: the thrill and danger lie in napping without setting an alarm, which can result in sleeping for twenty minutes? Or maybe a few hours? Or perhaps waking up tomorrow? Nobody knows.
...
Lin Li opened his eyes, still feeling sowhat sleepy and dizzy.
When he was sleeping, it was still bright outside, but now it’s already pitch dark.
Sitting up and resting for a while, Lin Li took out his phone.
It’s nine-twenty in the evening.
Perhaps due to suddenly shedding the burden of heavy study, or maybe because of the consumption from using the ’Emotional Managent Bottle’ these past few days, Lin Li ended up napping for a full three hours.
Lin Li swiped down the phone’s status bar.
Not a single ssage.
Lin Li got up, opened the curtains, and outside, with the lights from countless hos, there was even the aroma of food, and occasionally he could hear so neighbors laughing joyfully.
Turning back, the house was empty and silent.
Maybe he should watch so horror movies too; it sotis fills the void of loss and emptiness.
Do abstract kids get sad too?
"Wait a minute!"
"How co the Daily Voucher Benefit Guy hasn’t ssaged either? I wonder, I haven’t blocked him, have I?" With enhanced wisdom, Lin Li quickly spotted the blind spot.
He opened up WeChat.
Then he saw WeChat starting to spin circles.
This ant he hadn’t been receiving ssages at all.
So Lin Li felt a sense of anticipation and nervousness.
When the spinning stopped.
[Daily Voucher Benefit Guy: Co claim your vouchers...](2)
[Brothers, We Must Fight: @All mbers...](99 )
[Three Humans and a Dog: Soone @...](99 )

[Bai Bufan: ?](99 )
[Chen Yu Ying: It seems like it’s going to rain tomorrow.](6)
Screw you, loss and emptiness. Seeing the red dot on the screen, Lin Li felt alive again.
Lin Li first opened Chen Yu Ying’s ssages.
Chen Yu Ying didn’t have anything going on tomorrow. She initially wanted to ask Lin Li if he’d like to teach her how to ride a bike tomorrow but noticed the weather forecast indicating rain.
It’s completely unsuitable for learning how to ride a bike in the rain.
[Lin Li: I’m free tomorrow, but if it does rain, let’s reschedule for National Day.]
[Chen Yu Ying: Okay.]
[Chen Yu Ying: Why didn’t you reply sooner?]
[Lin Li: I planned to take a nap after coming ho and ended up sleeping until now, sorry.]
[Chen Yu Ying: Oh, it’s okay, just checking. "Puppy nodding".]
[...]
After chatting with Chen Yu Ying, Lin Li decided to take a look at how Bai Bufan managed to spam 99 ssages on his own.
[Bai Bufan: I’m ho, ti for gas! If you say you need to study after the exams, Lin Li, you’re even cooler than a 3A, you’re a 4M.]
[Bai Bufan: Private Lin Li, step out!]
[...]
[Bai Bufan: Where are you, damn it? If you’re dead, at least give a dream? Can I use your ashes for my supper tonight?]
[Bai Bufan: ?]*20
[...]
[Bai Bufan not connected]
[Bai Bufan: Pick up the phone, you dog!]
[Bai Bufan: "Dragon Picture: I must control you"]*18
[Bai Bufan: "Dragon Picture: I’m very angry"]*20
[Bai Bufan: Celebrating Lin Li’s unfortunate passing on the night of the 27th of this month, at age 17.5...]
[...]
[Bai Bufan: Revive, my dear beloved!]
[Bai Bufan: ?]
Though most of it was insults, Lin Li found the chat records quite amusing.
Sotis, it’s really nice knowing Bai Bufan.
[Lin Li: Napping, you’re yelling "beep—" at your mom?]
[Bai Bufan: Didn’t think to report to before sleeping? You’re really hard-headed now, Lin Li.]
[Lin Li: Not really, just woke up, you already know.]
[Bai Bufan: Give a taste.]
[Lin Li: You little glutton, really can’t handle you.]
After typing this line with a smile, Lin Li thought for a bit, and then edited and sent it again.
[Lin Li: Seriously, Bufan, sotis I’m really glad to know you, man.]
Bai Bufan didn’t reply imdiately, but after almost half a minute:
[Bai Bufan: ?]
[You withdrew a ssage.]
[Lin Li: Sorry, I got possessed for a mont.]
[Bai Bufan: You gave a scare, thought you were about to confess, I already put on my wedding dress.]
[Lin Li: Alright, weren’t you calling to play gas? Are we still playing?]
Honestly, after a month of the system’s conditioning, Lin Li doesn’t have much desire for gas anymore, plus he’s worried about becoming addicted again. Lin Li is actively restraining himself.
But just for the emotional support Bai Bufan provided tonight, playing a ga with him is an unquestionable responsibility.
[Bai Bufan: OK, but let tell you first, I’m at my hotown now, the network isn’t very reliable, don’t curse if I ss up.]
[Lin Li: Don’t worry, tonight I’m your companion. You’re the boss, what companion curses the boss? Log in!]
[Bai Bufan: Alright! Logging in!]
...
At ten twenty in the evening.
[Lin Li: Bai Bufan, why don’t you go play gas in the cetery?]
[Lin Li: How co your hotown didn’t let you die of old age?]
[Lin Li: It’s rare for to want to play a ga, and you let lose so badly?]
[Bai Bufan: ... You said you wouldn’t curse .]
[Lin Li: Just because I said I wouldn’t curse you doesn’t an I won’t curse you? I told you to play well, why didn’t you? Figuring out now? What were you doing earlier?]
[Bai Bufan: Lin Li, just rember, you’re just a companion right now...]
[Lin Li: Companion your mom!]
[Bai Bufan: I’m the boss!]
[Lin Li: Boss your mom!]
[Bai Bufan: Damn!]
Lin Li actually worried about relapsing into a gaming addiction.
Clearly overthinking it.
In terms of internet addiction treatnt, Dr. Bai really is an expert.
