Chen You faced the wall opposite his bed, laying down like a salted fish. He couldn’t accept the fact that an adult still wet his own bed from time to time.

“You’re punishing me, right? Of course you are, you must be. I won’t listen to you, I don’t want to hear it!” MhnSai

The system, “…”

Chen You feebly poured out his grievances, “They’re all fucking perverts, and as if they’re competing with each other, each one more amazing than the last, almost reaching the Heavens.”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

“After all that trouble, I finally encountered a target that was slightly more normal, but it turned out to be a transmission error between worlds.”

The final outcome was better left unsaid since it accidentally turned into a horror movie. 6StVT3

Chen You asked, “Why do I only take Evil value and not Good value?”

The system stated, “The value of the Good points are very low, so the amount you would need to go home is enormous. If you want to use the Good value from each world, you would need to travel through at least 10,000 worlds.

“If you really want to, I can submit an application to the higher-ups and have you transferred to the Good value section.”

“No need!” Chen You backtracked, “I’ll stick with the Evil value. Truly, I really, really like it.”

XUQ0tz

The system said, “Then work hard.”

Chen You forcefully wiped his face. 10,000 worlds are too brutal, not knowing how long he’d have to travel until goodness knows when. It’s basically hopeless.

He’d better continue taking the abnormal Evil value. It’s not that big a deal. After all, three have already been completed.

Endure a bit, stew a bit, and it will all pass. ACtG76

A moment later, Chen You took a deep breath, “Tell me.”

The system questioned, “What?”

Chen You elaborated, “I want to know how the previous transmigrator failed the mission.”

The system stated, “He died.” twcp65

Chen You sat up with a start, “Killed by the target?”

The system responded, “Does it matter?”

The pores all over Chen You’s body burst open, “What do you think?!”

The system said, “I don’t think it’s that important.” WAr8Pd

Chen You lay back down, “Don’t talk nonsense. Hurry up and tell me the truth. My heart is already fragile, don’t you think I could break down in a few minutes right in front of your eyes?”

The system stated, “It was death by an unforeseen accident.”

Chen You breathed a sigh of relief and felt a bit of sympathy for the man, “Keep going.”

System, “In the process of getting closer to the target, in a moment’s carelessness, he made a mistake and was killed.” gRH0nU

Chen You’s face turned white, “You just said it was an accident!”

The system countered, “A man-made accident is still an accident.”

Chen You, “…”

The system added, “That host was an old hand who had already been through hundreds of worlds.” CNPEDy

Chen You, with a heart full of admiration, only commented, “How powerful.”

A moment later, his face turned even paler. If the old hand already fell, then as a newbie, there was no way for him to play this game!

“444, my heart is feeling panicked.”

As he looked around the room, he simultaneously received the original owner’s memory. HV5Nxv

The original owner of this body was called Gu Sheng, 23 years old and born with congenital kidney problems. Even though he was like this, he still kept a habit of drinking a large glass of water before going to bed and was used to getting up several times during the night and finding his bed wet in the morning.

When Gu Sheng was three years old, his parents divorced and each started new families with their own partners and children. 

One could say that he had both a mother and a father, but one could also say that he had neither a mother nor a father.

After his grandfather’s death, Gu Sheng was on his own. Once he got his high school diploma, he began to loaf around doing nothing. sYpjem

A few years ago, when he came to M City, Gu Sheng relied on his appearance to sell mobile phones in a large market, even giving out screen protectors.

Due to his bed-wetting problem, Gu Sheng felt extremely inferior. He was always afraid that people would find out and laugh at him, so if someone so much as said two words to him, he would jump up and fight back.

Over time, in order to cover up the vulnerability of his heart, Gu Sheng’s mouth turned particularly cheap.

He was a man extremely keen on saving face, the typical case of someone who would go beyond his means in order to look impressive. HjDw2f

Unwilling to receive any hint of pity from others, he would use his meager wages to buy all kinds of trendy and fashionable goods. Each month he wouldn’t have enough money to spend and was even in debt.

Last year, Gu Sheng actually got a girlfriend, but the other party’s family disliked that he was a mobile phone salesman and felt that he was shameful, barred him from entering the stage, and looked down on him with disdain.

As for him, he thought that an outstanding student agreeing to be him was a sign of true love, so he had prepared to sell the house his grandfather left him in order to use the money to start a business. 

Chen You couldn’t help but rejoice that when he arrived, the house hadn’t been sold yet. 4hJcMt

Or else he wouldn’t even have a place to live.

Real estate prices in M City were very expensive. Once he woke up, he browsed through the daily news and coincidentally found that M City’s largest children’s hospital happened to be built right next to his community. Now, the price of his house was steadily increasing to over 30,000 yuan per square meter.

Chen You asked as he went to the living room, “When I encounter the target, will there be a data screen?”

The system answered, “No.” ihgzHr

Chen You couldn’t stop pacing, “Why?”

The system explained, “This is the second time this world has opened. All the previous information and data shattered with the death of the other host.”

Chen You said, “You’re joking.”

The system turned mute. 3cqPv2

Chen You roared, “Motherfucker! With no information, I can’t do anything.”

The system remained silent.

Chen You grabbed onto the door frame. What a huge piece of grievous news.

He felt like he could be ejected from this world at any time, “Without any hints, how will I know who’s the target of this mission?” m5gzq4

The system responded, “It’s simple.”

Chen You went berserk, “Simple my ass!”

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

“You won’t even fucking tell me the name of the target, but you say it’s simple. You’re playing me!”

The system repeated, “It’s simple.” YkmSs5

Chen You didn’t want to continue venting, when suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind.

Simple…simple…simple…

That’s right!

In the original owner’s memory, there actually was a person with this name. He was a senior at his school and was called Jian Dan. BJxdqE

With the same name and surname, could it be? Or was he just thinking too much?

Chen You promptly asked, “444, when you answered me with [Simple], were you actually referring to the target’s name?”

“Nope.” The system then backtracked, “I’m just messing with you.”

Chen You pouted, “Don’t, ah. I just woke up, so I haven’t regained my thoughts yet and I’m still a bit slow to react.” l60exK

The system asked, “You’re just slow to react?”

Chen You curled his lip, “Okay, I’m just stupid.”

In the real world he had never paid much attention to finance and economics news, so he didn’t know of anyone going by the name of Jian Dan.

“That can’t be it. That person is called Jian Dan but is also a big company’s boss, a legend in the business world, and an eligible bachelor with a fiery arrogance that burns to the touch.” jkzmv1

The system said, “Who decided that homicidal maniacs must be bottom-feeders?”

Chen You was at a loss to reply.

It’s true. Taking strangers out of consideration, even for acquaintances you might see every day, what you see is merely what the other party is willing to show you.

What they don’t wish to show will never be revealed. TlMzty

“I only have a name, all the other information was destroyed. I don’t know why the target wants to kill people, which kind of people he chooses to kill, or how he kills them. I don’t know his likes or dislikes and I have no way to approach him. I feel like both my eyes are shrouded in pitch-darkness.”

For a pervert, there must be some point that is considered normal for others, but that he might not take into account or deem out of the question.

Please visit chrysanthemumgarden (dot) com

Chen You didn’t know what that point might be for his target, so there was a good chance that he might accidentally stumble upon it and trigger him to explode. 

The system encouraged him, “The greater the challenge, the greater your potential will be. I’m optimistic about you.” KJp46L

“…” What a huge lie, ah. I think I’m set to leave soon.

Chen You moved to the sofa in the living room and sat down. In Gu Sheng’s memory, everything related to Jian Dan was used for showing off. The thing he said most often was, “The boss of Mingrui is my school senior. We went to the same high school.”

He said this to men and women, young and old, all to give himself face.

“Jian Dan…” aPu0dj

Chen You turned these two words over the tip of his tongue. It really was simple enough.

An electronic sound suddenly burst out. Chen You went to his room and grabbed his mobile phone to take a look. [My Dear Wife] lit up as the caller ID on the screen.

He remembered that the girl had stated that intimate contact was forbidden before marriage, so Gu Sheng had only held her hand and had never progressed to a higher level. That’s a relief.

Once the call went through, a gentle female voice sounded, “Ah-Sheng, how’s the situation with the house?” E5cBrt

Chen You replied, “I’m not selling the house.”

“What? Not selling?” The girl’s voice grew sharper and sharper, “Are you kidding? I already told my mom about it and she wants you to come over for dinner this week. What am I supposed to do now?”

Chen You scratched his face. In the real world, he had never had a girlfriend before, so he wasn’t sure what the right way to communicate was.

Probably because she’d been waiting for a response for some time, the girl yelled several times in a row, “Ah-Sheng, why aren’t you saying anything?” gGet7Q

Her tone changed again to a coquettish voice, with intentions of coaxing him, “I know that the house your grandfather left is important to you, but don’t you want to be with me?”

“I think that if your grandfather was alive, he’d want you to live a good and happy life, don’t you think so?”

Chen You rolled his eyes. Little sister, you really speak reasonably and impressively. I can’t argue with you.

His brain worked overtime and he finally stated, “My grandfather appeared in a dream and told me not to sell the house. I can’t do anything unfilial. I’m sorry.” RMZuEN

The other end hung up the phone.

Chen You carelessly throwed the phone aside and scratched his head as he went to clean up his room.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

The fourth world started just like this.

I’m fine. Chen You tried to cheer himself up. He saw the clothes piled up in his closet, full of unique and strange styles with colors jumping all over the place, and grew a bit worried. GyZz7D

They were all remnants of the original owner.

Chen You originally intended to pack them away in a big bag and go to the market to pick up two sets of casual clothing when he has time.

However, on second thought, he decided not to. This time, he would try to adapt more to the original owner’s settings, so there wouldn’t be too abrupt of a change.  

After Chen You finished tidying up, he went back to his room and looked at the stain on his bedsheets with a black expression. dGuZfw

Even while knowing he had a bed-wetting problem, not only did he drink a full glass of water before sleeping, but he also used white bed sheets. What was he thinking?

He resigned himself to picking up his blanket and bringing it to the balcony to hang-dry. Then, he went back to put his sheets in the washing machine.

Hehe, now every time I wake up after a sound sleep, I’ll always end up floating on water. 

I’ll experience the sensation of it being a dream and not yet a dream. DUTBYn

Chen You tired himself out until he was drenched in sweat and on the way to take a shower, he took a glance at himself in the mirror.

He saw a head of yellow hair and the face of a handsome bad boy, combined with a smooth chest with two pecs. His legs were unexpectedly nice, with an attractive shape. 

The most eye-catching point was the piercings in each ear.

Chen You went up to the mirror and carefully counted the holes on his left ear – one, two, three. There wasn’t a fourth. Changing to his right ear, he also counted three. JaTqd8

Three plus three equals six, a good number.

Buddy, I’m not blaming you, but why do you treat your own ears so ruthlessly?

Unable to understand the previous owner’s mentality, he tsk-ed as he found a hair dryer to dry his hair and put on some earrings. 

It was hard work. 5hrlxW

Chen You dropped the earrings many times and was frustrated enough to wildly curse. However, he couldn’t refuse to do it, so he kept trying until he turned cross-eyed.

Over half an hour passed before he was able to successfully put the earrings on. Chen You pulled on a pair of ripped jeans and then started to flip through his jackets.

Browsing through, all of them were flashy enough to burn his eyes. In the end, he simply closed his eyes and randomly picked one. At the very least, choosing one was better than not wearing anything at all. 

Since this was confirmed to be a parallel world, then there must be a Chen You here. IEagyT

Chen You decided that before he tried to find a way to get in contact with his school senior, he should first take a look around and blend in with this world.

He also wanted to know if his parents in this world would be in the same situation as his real world.


This author has something to say:

For last world’s epilogue, I was thinking that Lei Ming took Xiao Jin back to the capital star and brought him everywhere he went. One day, he encountered another snake tribe member, told him about his own experience, and finally learned the truth. After that, he suffered in agony, torturing himself day and night. Ultimately, he went insane and died from digging out his stomach. 3gDW7N

Or maybe it’s better that I didn’t write it this way and instead, he lived on with fond memories to look back upon, through the recorded song and those bittersweet voice messages, and became a good father.


Luoshenhua: This was supposed to go up yesterday but I was dumb and accidentally restricted my own access of the shared doc I was working on (basically locked myself out of the doc T.T) But it’s here now! The new arc! With a bed-wetting Chen You and a homicidal maniac ML! Unfortunately, it looks like there’s no formal epilogue for the last arc, but at least the author offers some kind of resolution.

Translator's Note

Basically, overcompensating…you know what they say about dudes who have really nice cars heh.

Translator's Note

‘Simple’ in Chinese is 简单 which is romanized to Jian Dan. So that character’s name literally means ‘simple.’

    • lmao yes, we didn’t want him to dig his own stomach. It’s useless after all.

      I’d rather it be the latter option, he decided to treasure his their son as much as he treasured Chen Yu. But given with Lei Ming’s wit he should be able to come up with what actually happened on his own. Then he’d wallow in grief when he’s alone, and ended up always talking to himself because Chen Yu’s flesh and blood had become one with him (so it seems as if he’s still talking to Chen Yu), but ultimately their son would still be his salvation :>

  1. Welllll it seems that this world’s going to be interesting…

    Thanks for the translation!

  2. Omg the original epilogue for the last world is INSANE! Author~sama are you okay?? Please be merciful on us innocent readers T^T

    Thanks for the chapter!

  3. I know I was just asking for an epilouge for Lei Ming last chapter bit I’m now glad he didn’t have one if one of the possible scenario was him going insane and digging his insides out.

  4. Resolution! Yayy ~

    Thanks for the great translation.
