Night’s Nomenclature

Several robot guards entered Prison 18 and took away the three dead bodies.

The prison was deafeningly quiet; not a single person spoke.

Qing Chen was sitting beside the table, his face paler than usual.

This was the first time he felt true fear. He could feel a strong sense of discomfort radiating from his core to the surface of his skin. Even the breakfast he just ate didn't seem to be digesting well..

His teachers in school taught him functions and subjects.

His parents at home taught him how to use chopsticks, how to wash clothes, and how to be independent.

But they never taught him how to handle death.

Things like this can only be understood until you've seen them for yourself. Only then did you realize how shocking it was to witness a life disappear in front of your eyes.

As for how he saw two suicide killers died from prison, if he told this to his friends in the Outer World, people would think he was making things up.

"First time?" Li Shutong inquired, looking at Qing Chen.

Qing Chen said, "Yeah."

"Are you afraid?" Li Shutong inquired.

"A little." Qing Chen nodded.

"Did you know? Everyone has two lives," Li Shutong continued, "The second starts when one realizes that a person only has one. "

You will begin to appreciate the value of time and realize how much time you have squandered from that point forward.

The more terrified Qing Chen became, the calmer he appeared.

He looked back at his past and envisioned his future.

Li Shutong looked at him and asked, "The three assassins were probably targeting me, so since you picked them out for me, I owe you a favor. You can ask anything from me that you like. Now, what do you want? "

Since they started playing chess, Li Shutong had repeatedly asked what he wanted.

Qing Chen said, "I want a list of names from the Li Family Corporation. "

"Weird," said Li Shutong, "Why don't you just ask how to become an Extraordinary? There are few in the world that I owe a favor to, but you are the first that squandered your opportunity. "

Qing Chen thought about it and said, "Such a small thing could not be exchanged for the favor of similar value. As for your path to Extraordinary, it was way too little. "

Li Shutong smiled, "How would you know if you never tried? "

Qing Chen continued, "When you want to, you will give it to me yourself. It needn't be exchanged. "

Li Shutong's smile became brighter, "Your cleverness has surpassed my expectations. You have patience. But you're right. Some things in this world cannot be exchanged, but they can be obtained easily when the time comes. Even though you disappointed me that you never saw death before, now that I realize if you are indifferent toward the lives of people, it would be boring. "

After he said so, he told Lin Xiaoxiao to get a list of names from the Li Family, "Now I’m curious: Why do you need a list of names? "

"You didn't say that I have to explain what it's used for, did you?" asked Qing Chen.

"Never mind, do what you want," Li Shutong waved his hand, "It's just a favor anyway. "

……

That night, Qing Chen waited in his cell for the countdown to end.

At first, he thought that Lin Xiaoxiao would test him again with nightmares, but that never happened.

Since the nightmares were shown to have no effect, perhaps Lin Xiaoxiao gave up.

Or perhaps, Li Shutong felt that there was no need for further testing.

Faintly, Qing Chen felt that he was approaching the path to become an Extraordinary.

The countdown had still not ended, but Qing Chen already fell asleep on his bed. In stark contrast to his hyper-alert and anxious state of mind when being transmigrated the previous times, Qing Chen was calmer than ever, even after seeing death that morning.

As he opened his eyes, he was already in his Xingshu Road apartment. It was bright outside, and he even heard the birds chirping.

He took a glance at the white markings on his arm. Countdown: 40:20:21.

Looks like it was two days again.

The transmigration process this time was so quiet that I didn't even wake up from it, thought Qing Chen.

After two intense days, Qing Chen felt much more relaxed after returning to the Outer World.

However, he was already looking forward to the next transmigration, because there were endless opportunities waiting for him.

He changed into his school uniform and walked out of his apartment. As soon as he opened his door, he saw that Jiang Xue also came out with Li Tongyun.

"Good morning Aunt Jiang Xue, how was it… this time transmigrating?" asked Qing Chen.

"Nothing much," said Jiang Xue, smiling, "I'm about to send Xiaoyun to school. I'm going to buy some fish and ribs today to celebrate a little this evening, remember to come back early. "

What's the celebration for?" Qing Chen was confused.

"I'll tell you tonight, you will know by then," said Jiang Xue as she walked away, leaving Qing Chen guessing on what it might be.

On his way to school, Qing Chen checked the trending searches again to see what new happenings had been reported this time after transmigrating.

As expected, one specific headline attracted his attention: A foreign news source with a dark web information dealer confirmed that killing a transmigrator would not give you transmigration abilities.

Qing Chen was a little shocked after seeing this headline because he knew that this news cost the life of a person.

Facts were often bloodier than they seemed.

After he got to school, he saw that the classroom next to his was packed with students again.

Qing Chen took a seat next to his class representative Yu Junyi and asked, "What's happening, what are they looking at? "

Yu Junyi explained, "Didn't you hear that there's a transmigrator called Liu Dezhu? He just arrived at school, and everyone is asking him about what he did during the time he was in the Inner World. "

Qing Chen was a little surprised that the person still came to school.

He knew that after Liu Dezhu got taken away by the robot guards, he had never seen him since.

Qing Chen guessed that this must leave permanent trauma upon him, and would end up like Huang Qixian, resting in hospital.

Right now, Liu Dezhu was surrounded by classmates. Someone asked, "Where did you go after you got there? "

"Yeah, who are you in that world? "

"Looks like you don't have any mechanical limbs. I saw many transmigrators online. "

"Did you really transmigrate, or are you lying to us? "

People asked those questions loudly while Qing Chen tried to squeeze in a bit. He wanted to know where the robot guards brought Liu Dezhu, and what happened after that.

But Liu Dezhu was much like a mad man, "I actually transmigrated! "

"Then why don't you have any mechanical limbs? "

Liu Dezhu said immediately, "There are tons of transmigrators who don't have mechanical limbs, and it might not even be a good thing to have a mechanical limb. I'm telling you, I got spawned in Prison 18 and met Li Shutong! "

The classroom fell silent.

He Xiaoxiao was a famous game uploader, especially among students, and he was well-known, even way before the transmigration event.

Almost everyone knew that Prison 18 was an important location and that Li Shutong was one of the most important people in the Inner World.
