The system asserted its innocence, saying that it was also one of the victims. “This mistake is the first of its kind in history.”
Chen You coldly replied, “Then I’m truly honoured.”
System, “…”
Chen You asked, “What world was I supposed to go?”
The system answered, “It’s a parallel version of your real world.”
Chen You was temporarily at a loss. Did that mean his father, classmates, and his childhood friend all had doppelgangers?
He felt a bit sad.
Chen You’s head drooped down, “Then the target, who was it?”
The system explained, “There was a set of interlinked murder cases committed by a serial killer maniac.”
Chen You, “…” Scary.
The system continued, “The host over there has already been killed, so their mission was a failure.”
Chen You silently sympathized with the other party for a minute.
If there hadn’t been a mistake when the souls transferred, he would’ve gone and it would’ve been his fate to be murdered.
If you think about it, a murderer’s mind must be extremely twisted. His Evil value definitely would be a ticking time bomb. If he was caught and shot dead immediately, was there really any possibility to change the Evil value?
Chen You felt concerned about the other host, “Was he still able to go home?”
The system stated, “He’s different from you.”
The implication was that he was the only one who, if he failed his mission, would not be able to go home.
Chen You’s heart was sore, “Fine then.”
He lowered his head and chewed on his fingers. Now he had to find a way to get to Lei Ming.
What would be the best way…
The adjutant came over and knocked on Chen You’s door to tell him to come down for dinner. When there was no sign of movement in the room, his expression stiffened and he was worried that something was wrong.
Just as he was about to enter from the window, a weak, lifeless voice sounded, “Adjutant…”
The adjutant turned around and saw the child in front of him with a head of disheveled hair. His face looked agitated.
“Not feeling well?”
Chen You pouted, “I miss Major General.”
The adjutant patted him on the shoulder, comforting this little brother, “When the war over there has ended, the major general will return.”
Chen You pinched the palm of his hand. He won’t come back. Your family’s Major General is going to die young.
He sighed heavily, filled with worry.
The adjutant previously thought that after the major general left, the child would eat, drink, and vigorously play without a shred of unhappiness. Now it seemed that he really was dependent on the major general.
At dinner, Chen You continued to mope and sigh.
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
As he sighed, the servants were nervous. Was the food not to his taste, or was it something else?

This afternoon was destined to be spent in boredom.
All of a sudden, Chen You asked, “Adjutant, can you get me two pipes?”
The adjutant looked at him oddly, “What kind?”
Chen You replied, “L shape.”
The adjutant inquired very carefully. The major general trusted him to guard this important treasure. There must not be any accidents.
“What do you want those for?”
“To play with.” Chen You innocently blinked, “Thank you, Adjutant.”
Adjutant, “…” I haven’t agreed yet.
He asked the soldiers to get them. Within half an hour, Chen You saw the pipes. They were short and thin.
“This won’t do. It needs to be longer and thicker at both ends.”
The soldiers went back to fetch pipes again until they finally acquired ones that met Chen You’s standards.
“Thank you, little Ge-Ge.”
The soldier little Ge-Ge scratched his head, “You’re welcome.”
The adjutant slapped him, “What are you blushing for? If the major general sees, it’s your ass on the line.”
The soldier laughed foolishly, “The major general isn’t here, right?”
The adjutant sent over a kick, though he didn’t use much strength, “Go out and feel the wind. Run ten laps and let all the silly things on your face blow away!”
“Yes, sir!”
The soldier left, crestfallen.
The adjutant rubbed the back of his neck, turning his head to address the servants, “What are you looking at? You think he looks lonely running by himself and you want to join him?”
The servants, “…”
Chen You went back to his room and began to fiddle with the pipes, “I used to be a very pure boy, but now I don’t even recognize myself.”
System, “Knowledge is power.”
Chen You, “Hehe.”
What great strength ah, I feel like I can go to Heaven.
Lei Ming received a message from the adjutant saying that the child was crying in his room.
He signaled the soldiers to move away, then frowned and asked, “What’s the matter?”
The adjutant said that he didn’t know, “He was perfectly fine at noon, but in the afternoon he started crying.”
When the child got the pipes, his eyes had curved into a smile, like he was looking at a new toy. The adjutant thought he could have a nice nap in the afternoon.
He didn’t know that just as he laid down, a flustered servant would hurry to him saying that the boy was crying. Furthermore, it was a violent, bitter kind of lament.
“Major General, this subordinate has neglected his duty.”
“Right now is not the time to decide who is accountable.”
The adjutant helped Lei Ming connect to the youth’s terminal.
Soon, Lei Ming was able to see the child. His eyes were red and swollen and there were tear stains on his face.
“Why are you crying?”
Chen You didn’t speak and only wiped his tears. Fuck me, this potion is too strong. My eyes are burning, but I can’t stop crying.
He sobbed and sniffled, and hiccuped as well, “I…I had a nightmare…”
The adjutant was speechless.
However, the major general’s brows were deeply furrowed, “Go out.”
It took several seconds for the adjutant to realize that the major general was referring to himself. He rubbed his nose and retreated, considerately closing the door behind him.
Lei Ming asked the boy, “What was your nightmare about?”
Chen You’s face was panic-stricken and filled with dread, “I dreamed that you were covered in blood with a big hole in your chest.”
Lei Ming was silent for a while, his voice slightly hoarse when he spoke again, “It was just a dream.”
Chen You wiped his tears again. The Lei Ming from his dream quickly turned into the one with pendants hanging from him. “Major General, can you send someone to pick me up?”
Lei Ming, “I can’t.”
Chen You, “…” He was turned down without hesitation.
As he drew closer to the screen, tears began to fall again, running down his cheeks to his chin and dripping on his neck. He looked both lovely and pitiful.
Lei Ming’s composed voice held an undertone of unconscious gentleness, “This is not a place for children to play.”
Chen You cried as he protested, “I’m not a little kid!”
Xiao Ming, look. My cornea is about to pop out from crying too much. My next life’s tears and my next next life’s tears are all yours.
He couldn’t tell the target about the direction of his fate. When he tried, his voice was silenced.
“If you don’t come pick me up, then I’ll go by myself.”
Lei Ming’s eyes turned fierce, “Nonsense!”
Chen You could feel the man’s anger through the screen and instinctively shivered.
Damn it! Don’t threaten me. If you keep threatening me, then I’ll show you.
Lei Ming asked, “Why?”
Chen You sniffled, feeling wronged, “I really miss Major General.”
He began to enter the mindset of a newly married bride, “After Major General left, I couldn’t sleep at night. With one person all alone in this big bedroom, I was scared.”
Lei Ming stated, “I’ll be back soon.”
“You obediently stay there, don’t cause trouble.”
Chen You buried his face in his hands, angrily gnashing his teeth. Okay, it’s useless to say anything, you won’t let me go anyways. You mean to threaten me, right? Well, just you wait.
He brought a chair over, sat down, and faced the screen, fiddling with his pendants. “Major General, let me tell you; when I was young, I didn’t have any toys to play with so I played with ropes instead. I learned how to tie many different kinds of knots.”
Lei Ming stopped breathing.
Chen You grabbed his pendants and arranged one on the left and one on the right, pressing them back and then pushing them forward. He took one end of the rope in his mouth and used the other end to wrap it around his pendants.
“Last time it was a butterfly knot. This time I’ll change it to something different.”
The blue veins on Lei Ming’s neck emerged. The child was playing with his life.
His fingers were dexterous enough to tie the rope in many different ways. Chen You shifted back and half of his body was sticking out, his waist creating an exquisite curve that others would want to ravage.
Now, he was trying to eat a big carrot. Before he was done, he stuffed in another one. However, his mouth was not full and there was still room for two more.
“These carrots are a little old. They don’t taste good.”
Chen You was speaking the truth. His mouth was sore, but he still had to chew. There was no other way. It was only when he bitterly ate, that he could still be a human. “Major General, I want to eat paste.”
“You don’t know, but if I go a day without eating paste, my whole body feels unwell.”
Chen You simultaneously shoved the carrots in his mouth and spoke, “If I don’t eat, I really will die.” And it would be death by ugliness.
Lei Ming watched the child on the screen eating carrots. He frowned imperceptibly. It looked like he was reluctant to eat them.
As he continued staring, a faint red light appeared in his black pupils, growing stronger as time passed.
A moment later, Chen You took out the carrots and threw them on the ground. He took some paper towels and carelessly wiped his mouth, not too concerned about whether he was clean or not. Then, he took the two L-shaped tubes, put them in his mouth, and began pouring milk into his mouth.
He didn’t know how others completed their missions. All he knew was that every time, he would end up mastering some strange skills.
Ones that would be useless when he went back to his real world.
Chen You drank an entire cup of milk, and his face was still pretty as he showed an expression full of yearning, “Major General, I’m not full. I want you to feed me paste.”
Look, look. You can hardly bear it, right? Don’t forget that you are not human. Some things are out of your control.
Try a thousand times, and the result will still be the same.
Lei Ming’s eyes were completely overtaken by the red color. He stared intently at the milk leaking out of the boy’s mouth. His chest was undulating greatly and his hands were clenched into fists. In his mind, a feeling was rising up, one that couldn’t be smothered or exterminated.
Chen You took out the tubes, and all the milk he couldn’t swallow flowed out of his mouth, dripping everywhere. A disaster-level flood erupted in an instant.
He didn’t try to wipe it up and simply let the milk trickle down and create a wet stain on the floor. “See, Major General, I can’t even drink milk. I can only eat paste.”
Lei Ming snapped and abruptly severed the connection.
Chen You’s legs trembled as he groaned. I told you not to threaten me. I was threatened into a panic, but my potential really bursts out when I’m frightened.
Not long after, the adjutant’s voice rang from outside the door telling him to tidy up and come with him.
Chen You speedily grabbed the bag that he’d prepared much earlier, washed the carrots, and put them in the bag to give to Lei Ming as a present.
Luoshenhua: How is it possible that Chen You gets crazier each chapter? How does his brain work? I was so caught off guard by the carrots though lol. I couldn’t figure out whether they were a euphemism for something or not until I got to him throwing them on the floor haha
Thank you for the update uwuuwwu.
Ck,ck Chen You, you are really hmmm
😌
It hit me reading the second time, which mouth he was talking about! Waaaaaaaaa!!! I cant!😳
Thanks for the translation!
I don’t know if I would’ve gotten it had I not read your comment!
I didn’t realise till I read this comment going ?????? i know it’s a euphemism but why is ML going into heat staring at his mouth???? until I realised.. Which mouth it is….. due to this comment
Chen You you scary scary child oh my god
That’s why he can talk with 2 carrots in his mouth ⊙.☉
Seems I’m still lacking in experience. I wouldn’t have realized if it weren’t for this comment. The censorship sometimes is making my brains into paste😆
Oh goddess, this MC is the craziest I have ever seen. I can’t even….😂😂
Uhh… i don’t think i’ll be able to eat carrots for a while… my three worldviews have been shaken, and my pure (rotten) mind has been tainted further~
Σ(●д●)
Same
Somehow reading things like this… I would only feel like it’s unrelated to me 😂😂😂
But i get shooketh tho 😭😭😭
You know, it hurts my heart because Chen You didn’t fall in love with any gong, he just fell sympathy for them. I felt like he is cold-blooded. But I like him
😊
Our boy Chen You is wild 😂
Yes, Chen You can ‘eat’ and never get full, but only paste can satisfy him.
I didn’t realize it until he said it, but Chen You really does learn lots of unique skills that are only useful for one task. XD
Thanks for the chapter! (≧▽≦)
(Waiting for more of Chen You’s anticas)
Lol a whole mood
Honestly with all the weird crazy antics and skills Chen You picks up I think he’d have survived in that serial killer world just fine…: ghhhhh…. just weird if he had to come into contact with himself while in someone elses body
Thanks for this chapter!!!
Thank you for the update!!! 🥰🥰 This novel is so nice!! 😭
thank you for translating! i really love this novel 💞💞
My jaw dropped once I realized what was actually going on! 😂
Wtf! Carrots and milk will never be the same
So, wait, are all of the other hosts doing normal QT missions while Chen You is the only one who has to seduce a series of yanderes?
So basically he fucked himself and cumed into his own ass 🤪
