Huh? Isn't This A Galgame?

Chapter 127 - 124: Start Over by Deleting Account

As the meeting went into the later stages, taking advantage of a moment when no one was paying attention, Wen Nan whispered to his junior sister and quickly slipped out of the door, heading to the top floor next to the pantry, to the cramped storage room where his junior sister had previously pulled him to hide.

A few minutes later, Yu Shujun arrived, pushed open the door, and glanced at the tiny space inside, scarcely able to accommodate two grown men, his eyes filled with reluctance. "Do we really have to talk in a place like this?"

Wen Nan raised an eyebrow cunningly, "Are you the master, or am I the master?"

Yu Shujun found it irrefutable, ensured no NPCs were nearby, shut the door behind him, then lowered his eyes and submitted a piece of video footage into Wen Nan's system, "This is a complete route of Yang Mingzhong's movements during the time I tracked him, along with NPCs, characters, players he interacted and conversed with, and the equipment found. I've marked the corresponding information on the map beside it."

Then, after a moment's pause, Yu Shujun coldly added, "Please have a look, Master."

With that, Yu Shujun stepped half a step back, pressed his back against the door, stood upright, trying his best to distance himself from Wen Nan.

Of course, given the cramped environment of the storage room, no matter how much they distanced themselves, Wen Nan just had to lift his arm, and his elbow would hit the other.

Although he couldn't understand what's so taboo about two men being in a room together, Wen Nan had no obligation to cater to Yu Shujun's feelings. On the contrary, seeing Yu Shujun's current uncomfortable look was rather amusing to him.

Pulling a cardboard box from the side, Wen Nan sat astride it, arms resting on another box beside Yu Shujun, leaning back as he began sifting through the video and map in front of him, quickly browsing through it.

Seeing the other's arms and knees nearly touch his chest and thighs, Yu Shujun's stance became even more rigid, taking a deep breath, almost wishing to merge with the door panel.

Wen Nan, in a rather cheerful mood, perused Yang Mingzhong's records and quickly realized what the problem Yu Shujun mentioned was –

From the video records and map annotations. Yang Mingzhong's movement was very slow, not like someone on a mission but more like someone enjoying life.

He often stayed in one place for a long time, either sitting in a daze, smoking a cigarette, having a drink, or simply doing nothing, just sitting on the steps by the street, watching two cats fight quietly.

However, apart from these idle leisure times, in all the places he

Yu Shujun nodded, "All levels, attribute values, equipment, items, assets, including community connections of the original account go to zero, and that's not the greatest price —

"I've heard the behavior of players deleting accounts by themselves leads to a high probability of losing parts of their memory randomly, and even with a certain probability, disappearing completely from the game world."

After thinking for a moment, Yu Shujun continued, "However, the purchase qualification for the delete-and-restart item isn't high, even very low-ranked players like those in silver rank can obtain it."

Silver rank? Very low rank?

Glancing quietly at his own bronze rank, Wen Nan did not respond to this but switched topics, asking, "Taking such a high risk to start over again, what is it for?"

Yu Shujun shrugged, "The human heart is complex and unfathomable, I've never understood it. This question, I'm afraid, is beyond my capability, Master."

"Is that so," Wen Nan teased, "the time when you stirred trouble in my backyard, didn't you figure out how to CPU?"

Yu Shujun, with a cold expression, said, "Players are players, and roles are roles; in my eyes, they are entirely different."

"Alright then."

Wen Nan rubbed his ears, nearly calloused, stood up, "I'll go see him myself."

The storage room was quite cramped, and with a casual movement, Wen Nan unintentionally bumped his elbow into the other's chest, soft, quite sizable.

Wen Nan's arm stiffened.

Wearing fake breast pads? Stuffed them this well? Are today's male cosplayers really this... dedicated?

Yu Shujun, uncomfortable under Wen Nan's scrutinizing gaze, directly pushed open the door and stepped out, "He's inside the café next to the activation point from last time, been sitting there for quite a while. I'll take you there now, Master."

…

…

Café opposite the north gate of Erin Group.

Yang Mingzhong sat alone by the window, holding a cup of coffee and a magazine taken from the bookshelf next to him, idly passing the time.

Wen Nan and Yu Shujun slipped into the café silently.

The clerk behind the counter was about to greet with a "Welcome," but Yu Shujun made a hush gesture towards them.

The clerk immediately nodded and mouthed to Yu Shujun, "I've been watching him for you; he's been sitting there, hasn't moved."

Wen Nan looked at Yu Shujun, "You had the NPC watching him for you?"

Yu Shujun replied, "Can't I have the NPC help?"

Wen Nan shook his head, said nothing, and walked straight to the table by the window.

Yang Mingzhong looked up, recognized them, and stood up, "Chairman? What a coincidence to meet here again."

Wen Nan smiled and asked, "Why come here to drink coffee alone?"
