Other than wishing him well in his heart, he could only rush past this unpleasant scene.

He still had some distance to go home. Although it was far from the company, he could only afford to rent a house in this place.

He had only walked a few steps when he heard a commotion coming from the intersection ahead.

He saw a few n.o.ble seniors racing on the main road drift perfectly at the intersection. In the blink of an eye, they sped past him. He could only see the rapidly shrinking black dots. It was difficult to imagine how fast they were driving.

One of them was not very skilled and barely brushed past Little Cheng. He first felt his hair being blown by the wind, followed by his late heart beating violently.

He had almost died just now, and the horror he felt after realizing it made him break out in cold sweat and have gooseb.u.mps all over his body.

This completely unpredictable life-and-death situation made him collapse to the ground, breathing heavily. After a while, he struggled to stand up.

He glanced at the patrol team just now and saw that these guys were as if nothing had happened. It was as if they did not notice the illegal behavior of racing. They were even reprimanding the pedestrians who were walking on the road normally, telling them that if they damaged the n.o.ble senior’s car, they would never be able to pay for it.

“What a tragic world…” Little Cheng muttered to himself, then dragged his weak body back home as soon as possible.

He was indeed afraid that he would almost encounter a disaster like before.

Just as the patrol said, the compensation for his death would not be enough to pay for the n.o.ble senior’s car.

After returning to his rental unit, the sense of security gradually calmed his frightened heart.

He lay on his bed tiredly and stared at the ceiling for a long time before he took out a book from the side of his bed.

The cover of the book, which had been flipped through countless times and appeared a little damaged, was printed with the words “The Unsolved Mysteries of the World”.

This was one of his favorite books, and he especially liked one of the unsolved mysteries – the large-scale disappearance cases from decades ago.

At that time, large-scale cases of missing people often occurred in various countries around the world. The source was unknown, and the outcome was also unknown. They only knew that many people had mysteriously disappeared from this world.

Although the aftermath of this matter had settled down, speculations about this matter had never stopped, including the theory of s.p.a.ce-time turbulence tales, government conspiracy theories, terrifying lifeforms, and so on.

What Little Cheng agreed with the most was the theory of alien abduction.

This speculation was that a group of aliens had used high-tech means to capture these people for some purpose. However, the people who agreed with this guess were the least, because no one thought that aliens would do such a boring thing.

However, Little Cheng yearned for this. Without any worries, he hoped to see the wider world before he died, even if aliens treated them as pets or something worse.

His family had actually been cut off by his generation. All his relatives had died early for various reasons, and he was the last one.

And he didn’t plan to get married. Even if the law here stipulated that if one didn’t get married and have children, they had to pay a high fine, he didn’t want his descendants to live in such a sad world.

He had already read the book The Unsolved Mysteries of the World thoroughly, but every time he read it, he would relish it, hoping that a group of aliens would really come and take him away.

After recalling The Unsolved Mysteries of the World, he calculated the rest of his break time, then he took out another new book that he had not finished reading yet – The Perfect World and continued reading.

This book was full of yearning for extremely generous living conditions in the future world, and it was very popular among the poor.

However, this was actually a bad book because its author was a n.o.ble senior who did not understand the sufferings of the people. The ideal life in the book was an extension of the current life of the upper cla.s.s.

There was even a cla.s.sic quote: “If you don’t have rice to eat, then go eat meat.”

However, this did not stop Little Cheng from liking this book. It was good material for dreams and could add a lot of scenes to his fantasy time.

“That’s great…Was this the life of a n.o.ble senior? I hope I can have this dream tonight…”

With that thought in mind, he took out the dream capsule that was placed deep in the drawer.

This was a low-end luxury product developed by a certain n.o.ble senior for the lower-cla.s.s people. This drug could allow the user to have a high probability of having their favorite dreams when they slept.

As long as he gave more hints before going to bed, he could have a wonderful dream. It was not impossible to experience the life of a n.o.ble senior in his dream.

Therefore, even though the burden of this drug on the brain was not small, it was still wildly popular among lower-cla.s.s people. Most of the people’s wages were spent on it.

Although the feeling of emptiness when he woke up was very serious, the addiction to dreaming was completely irresistible.

Little Cheng had the last pill in his hand. He had always kept it as a memento, but today’s encounter made him need some spiritual comfort.

So after dinner, he took the dream capsule and quickly fell asleep.

He had a wonderful dream.

He realized that he was no longer in this tragic world. Instead, he had gone to the heaven of his dreams.

There, he was only responsible for playing. He did not have to worry about anything else. Instead, it was handled by a robot.

He didn’t have to work, but if he liked, he could work with a playful att.i.tude.

He did not have an annoying boss, nor did he have all kinds of disgusting restrictions. He could quit at any time and return to his life of entertainment.

And everything he liked, such as extraterrestrial life and s.p.a.ce adventures, could be perfectly experienced in the virtual world.

If it was possible, he really hoped that this dream would not end.

But dreams were like this. There would always be a day when the bubble burst.

Little Cheng woke up from his sleep once again, and what greeted his eyes was his tiny room.

A huge sense of emptiness surrounded him. At this moment, all kinds of dark emotions surged into his heart. He began to doubt himself and fear himself, and soon it evolved into extremely destructive emotions.

He did not want to feel this emptiness again. He wanted to jump down from the tall building and say goodbye to the whole world.

“However, suicide would be punished… Punishment?”

“How strange…My memories are a little…” He held her head and tried hard to recall his past and everything in this world.

He should be a company employee. He worked from nine to five every day and was reprimanded by his boss not long ago. But…

“Boss…?” The fat figure in his memory was already blurry and even began to fade rapidly, quickly disappearing from his memory.

What replaced it was the life in his dreams. Those seemed to be what she had experienced in reality and not just a dream.

However, his understanding of this place was not abnormal.

He still remembered that this world was once unified by a people from the gra.s.slands, but this huge country collapsed in just a decade. Those divided countries formed the current social structure after a few hundred years.

It seemed that all the unpleasant memories had been erased, leaving only the basic knowledge and some additional memories.

“I am… 1 should be… Little Cheng? My job today is…” When he recalled this part of his memory, he suddenly fell into a state of extreme sleepiness and almost fell asleep immediately.

It was also at this last moment that a warm embrace hugged her and said in a gentle voice,

“Go to sleep, Master. You don’t need to work. When you wake up again, everything will be over…”

With his memory blacked out, the rental room returned to peace.

Then, the seemingly ordinary rental room suddenly changed greatly. The dilapidated walls and houses were restored to a bright and beautiful appearance. The crystallization of countless technologies was spread all over it. It looked like the future world in Little Cheng’s dream.

Inside this beautiful building, a series of conversations could be heard.

“I thought that using a familiar environment projection could help Master gradually adapt to his new body and new life, but 1 didn’t expect it to have the opposite effect and induce Master’s self-destructive emotions.”

“As expected, the masters are too fragile. They have to accept our protection….”
