Chapter 2 The Disappearing Heroine(1/2)
"What...where is this?"
I don't know how long it took, but Chen Wei woke up, opened his eyes, and looked at the small and messy room with a confused expression.
The room in front of me feels strange yet familiar at the same time.
Inexplicably, a somewhat absurd idea appeared in my mind.
"who I am?"
A memory naturally comes to mind.
I am Chen Wei, a thirty-year-old orphan. After dropping out of junior high school, I learned boxing in a boxing gym and quickly showed my talent.
Later, in order to make money, he joined a gang. During a debt collection, he caused serious injuries to someone and was sentenced to five years. After he was released, he could only work as a waterman and a parking lot security guard...
No, no...
Chen Wei broke out in a cold sweat, feeling like something was wrong.
I called my home landline and my parents’ mobile phone numbers at that time, but they were all empty.
This time and space is in the year 2006.
What’s even worse is that it’s only been 2006 and smartphones haven’t even appeared yet!
There are no mobile games, no short videos, no convenient takeout software...
I am twenty-nine years old. After my parents graduated from college, they stayed in big cities to work for five years. I have no car, no house, no girlfriend, and very little savings...
That is making money.
Chen Wei fell into huge chaos.
"What went wrong?"
In the past two days, he had tried various postures, but was unable to summon anything like a panel.
"By the way, that game!"
Chen Wei suddenly remembered that before entering this movie world, the database had been lost.
Yes, the heroine of this movie is blind. Due to a car accident, she not only lost her sight, but also lost her parents. It can be said to be very tragic.
Everything reminded him that this was a strange world.
The location is a provincial capital city on the Yangtze River, whose name I have never heard of.
What's even more frightening is that he has no family or friends. Once all the money is spent, he will really have no choice but to beg for food on the street.
Working part-time is not a long-term solution.
…
Suddenly, a burst of old-fashioned cell phone ringtones rang.
For people like Chen Wei who are accustomed to smartphones and the Internet environment, without these, it would be a doomsday.
Soon, he remembered.
But……
Chen Wei also wanted to search to see if there was another version of herself in this world.
The synopsis of the plot says that this is a story of two-way redemption between the male and female protagonists.
Now the protagonist is an orphan, has been in prison, has no money, no relatives, no friends, it is difficult to find even a serious job, and he can only do odd jobs.
He felt that he had to change his thinking.
Suddenly, Chen Wei felt so excited that she almost jumped up.
In the next few days, Chen Wei asked around and found that many people had seen the heroine, but no one knew where she lived.
If I had known earlier, I would have chosen a movie carefully.
Although, when he read novels and saw some exciting plots, he also fantasized about traveling to another world.
At least, choose a protagonist with a better background.
He also wanted to log in the number of his previous instant messaging software, but when he looked for it, he found that there was no such software at all.
Why is such a terrible word?
No way?
Who would have thought that a mobile game could have such black technology!
Two days later.
At night, in the single room of less than ten square meters.
"So, I have traveled to the world of that movie?"
The current situation is that life here is much harder and more stressful than before.
There is a security booth at the entrance to the underground parking lot of a building.
Seven days later, Chen Wei still had not waited for the heroine.
In addition, there are too many things that are different, such as car companies, mobile phone brands, brands of daily necessities...
He suddenly felt that compared with who he was now, the setbacks he had suffered in reality were nothing at all.
Chen Wei roughly figured out the cause of the matter and couldn't help but swallowed.
"It's not an option to wait any longer."
Chen Wei thought helplessly.
Chen Wei has been a little depressed these past two days.
A real world derived from a love movie?
Why is there another memory?
"I'm--"
This is considered the lowest level of society.
…
It wasn't until six o'clock in the morning that the person who changed the shift arrived, but Chen Wei didn't see the person he was waiting for.
Could it be that he missed it because he took two days off?
It feels like I'm seeing myself ten years from now.
As far as his experience in the past two days is concerned, his feelings are completely real, no different from those in the real world.
He is obviously also twenty-nine years old, and the few years of prison life are really training for him.
Chen Wei remembered that it was written like this in the plot synopsis.
Moreover, in this era, there is no convenient online loan, let alone credit cards.
Think again about the operations before traveling through time.
But, how can I go back?
Chen Wei was sitting in a narrow pavilion, with his hands in his pockets, and a small 14-inch TV was playing the news.
Chen Wei just felt like her head was buzzing.
When it comes to finding someone, you can't rush it, you have to try your luck.
"How could this happen? Didn't it say that the male and female protagonists met at the security booth?"
…………
As time passed by, the person he was waiting for never showed up, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.
Soon, he found the source of the ringtone, a candy bar phone next to the pillow.
Chen Wei hung up the phone, got up and went to wash up. When she looked at herself in the mirror, she still had the same face, but it was a little different. It looked much older.
It's another thing that needs to be put on the agenda.
Chen Wei sat on the only low stool in the room, summarizing the information collected in the past two days.
"Why aren't you here yet?"
Working two jobs, the combined income is less than 3,000 yuan. After deducting rent, water and electricity, it is just enough to spend.
His attention was not on the TV, he kept staring outside.
"Take the initiative to find her. She must live nearby. She is so beautiful and she is blind. It shouldn't be difficult to find out."
To him, there isn't really much difference.
He remembered.
Who would have thought that one day, he would actually travel through time.
This wait is just one night.
To be continued...
