Unorthodox popular science history, a place to store your brain!
(Seeing that many readers are complaining, I'll explain a bit. I originally wanted to write a sky screen novel where the protagonist had a slightly heavier role, but seeing that everyone didn't really want to read that, I didn't write it. If you mind this point, you can rest assured, the protagonist is now purely a tool character.)
(This book isn't that serious; it's mainly meant to entertain everyone and make you laugh. The content is carefully crafted, so please enjoy.)
"Ah ah ah, ouch ouch ouch."
Lin Qi rubbed his head, feeling his brain ache as if being pricked by needles. After a while, the pain in his brain finally eased considerably.
He opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar surroundings, his eyes filled with confusion.
"No, where did this send me?"
Lin Qi stood up, looking at the unfamiliar furnishings in the room, his brows tightly furrowed.
He closed his eyes and carefully thought about what had happened.
He remembered, he remembered, he had hit the jackpot!
But his home was clearly on the third floor, how exactly did he hit the jackpot like this?!
Lin Qi really didn't know how to complain. He was clearly at home, eating hotpot and singing, when suddenly a large truck flew in through the window.
So where was this place?
Suddenly, a memory emerged from his mind, and only then did Lin Qi understand what had happened.
He had transmigrated, transmigrated into a young man with the same name as him.
Lin Qi picked up his phone, and the facial recognition unlock was very fast. After unlocking, a chat interface appeared before his eyes.
"You've been released."
"Re... released?"
... Lin Qi looked speechlessly at the chat box before him.
He thought he had seen enough of all sorts of bizarre ways to die.
But this way of dying still shocked him greatly!
The original Lin Qi was a simp.
He met an online dating partner while playing games online.
Lin Qi, who had never been in a relationship, thought he had found true love, but the other party only wanted to use him as a wallet.
From initially calling him 'Gege' to order takeout, it later evolved to not even a single word of pleasantry, just directly listing dishes.
After this continued for a while, Lin Qi realized that this seemed a bit too simpy.
Even a simp shouldn't be this humble!
So Lin Qi sent a message to the other party saying that ordering takeout was fine, but next time before ordering, she should at least call him 'Gege'.
The girl readily agreed, calling him 'Gege' every time before ordering takeout.
Lin Qi also immersed himself in this illusory self-satisfaction.
The turning point came a week ago.
The latest iPhone 16 had just come out, and the girl hinted in various ways that she wanted Lin Qi to buy it for her.
But this time, Lin Qi had learned his lesson, mainly because his wallet didn't allow him to be unwise.
A brand new iPhone 16, even the low-end model, would cost over ten thousand yuan.
Although Lin Qi wasn't unable to come up with that ten thousand yuan, it wasn't a small sum for him.
After he refused the girl, all his subsequent attempts to please her seemed to fall on deaf ears.
The girl didn't reply to Lin Qi's messages for a whole week.
And just as Lin Qi was scouring the entire internet to figure out how to buy an iPhone 16 most cost-effectively...
Today, the girl who hadn't replied for a week, proactively sent a message.
"Are you there?"
"I thought you blocked me; you even deleted me from your in-game friends."
Seeing the girl's message, Lin Qi replied excitedly, thinking the girl had forgiven him.
But what the girl said next left his brain blank.
"She sold you to me."
It turned out that just five days ago, his online dating partner had listed his account on a second-hand market for two hundred yuan.
The title was:
【Transfer of Online Dating Partner】
【Can enjoy free takeout and tea services】
【Can break even in a week after purchase, don't miss out】
After chatting with this girl, Lin Qi developed a good impression of her, thinking she was very kind.
He also thought, wasn't this also a kind of fate, that in the vast sea of humanity, two people could meet in such a way?
So he confessed to this girl again.
And he didn't need the girl to accept him, he just wanted to be good to her, to give to her selflessly.
Most girls might have agreed.
After all, having a simp who would proactively spend money and provide emotional value wasn't a bad thing.
But this girl directly refused, stating bluntly that she bought Lin Qi purely for the sake of releasing him.
Besides Lin Qi, she had also bought many small animals and insects to release.
It was all to accumulate good karma!
As a simp who had been released, Lin Qi felt the sky fall after learning the truth!
He couldn't believe that he didn't even have the chance to be a simp!
So he couldn't catch his breath and just died!
"Excellent, truly excellent!"
Lin Qi kept scrolling up the chat box, looking at the original owner's simpy remarks, exclaiming "Excellent!" out loud.
"So this is what a simp's world is like."
Lin Qi looked at the chat history, his expression very animated, with the satisfied look of someone who had just heard juicy gossip.
As he looked, he suddenly raised an eyebrow.
Oh no!
This original owner had never been in a relationship and was such a simp, he wouldn't be terribly ugly, would he?!
He didn't need to be super handsome, but at least not too ugly, right?
With this thought, Lin Qi quickly ran to the bathroom and stared at himself in the mirror, stunned.
A young man with thick eyebrows and large eyes, sharp features, and red lips and white teeth appeared in the mirror.
He also estimated his height, roughly 185 cm.
A proper tall, long-legged handsome guy.
Not as handsome as Pan An, but definitely more handsome than Yanzu.
He could compete with the looks of the esteemed readers.
"No way, how did you end up as a simp looking like that?!"
Lin Qi raised an eyebrow at the mirror, then touched his chin, feeling it was quite surreal.
His looks didn't seem like someone who would lack girlfriends.
Yet he not only became a simp but also a simp who was released.
Rubbing his head, and carefully recalling in his mind, Lin Qi roughly understood why.
When he was studying, Lin Qi looked rather ordinary. After he grew into his looks, he spent his entire university life working at night and sleeping during the day, staying up all night at internet cafes with friends.
For the occasional roll call class, he would be disheveled after an all-nighter, looking drained, and would just nestle in the back of the classroom to sleep.
After graduation, he didn't get a job, becoming a full-time web novelist, so his daily routine was different from normal people.
That's why he had delayed finding a girlfriend until now.
"If only you had gone out more often and not had such a nocturnal routine, you would have found a girlfriend long ago."
"Why would you become a simp, not to mention being released and then literally dying of anger."
Lin Qi shook his head speechlessly, but he could also understand.
Although he was handsome, he didn't socialize much normally, and the image he projected in online dating was that of a homebody simp. Even if he sent pictures, people probably thought they were stock photos.
So it wasn't strange that he couldn't find a girlfriend.
Coming out of the bathroom, Lin Qi surveyed the room's furnishings while absorbing the original owner's memories.
Lin Qi, 24 years old this year, a local of Jiangcheng. His parents died in a car accident three years ago.
The apartment he was currently living in was a four-bedroom unit near Jiangtan. Besides this apartment, he also had three two-bedroom apartments for rent.
Relying on the monthly rent and some income from writing web novels, Lin Qi's life was quite comfortable.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have had the money to be a simp.
Apart from these three properties, he also had an Accord for transportation. As for cash, he didn't have too much.
Lin Qi roughly calculated and estimated he had around eighty thousand yuan.
After a rough estimate of his small fortune, Lin Qi couldn't help but smile slightly.
These conditions could be said to surpass the vast majority of people.
Although he didn't understand why he suddenly transmigrated after a nap.
But as it stood, Lin Qi was quite satisfied.
Suddenly, a series of message notification sounds kept ringing.
Lin Qi sat on the sofa, took out his phone, and found that it was a message from that online dating partner from before.
"Hey, are you okay?"
"Why aren't you replying?"
"You didn't get into trouble, did you?"
"Please don't do anything rash; I just wanted to do good deeds and accumulate karma!"
"Don't bring trouble upon me!"
"Say something!"
"Please, say something, big brother."
"Beep beep beep ~"
Before Lin Qi could finish reading all the messages, the voice call notification kept ringing.
After a moment of stunned, Lin Qi answered the phone.
"Hello, hello, can you hear me?"
A soft, sweet girl's voice came through, her sugary tone like a small cake.
"Ahem, I can hear you."
Her voice was quite pleasant, Lin Qi secretly evaluated in his heart.
"If you're fine, why didn't you say anything? You scared me to death."
On the other end of the phone, the girl's tone clearly showed a sigh of relief.
After she had just spoken, Lin Qi didn't reply to messages for a long time, and she thought Lin Qi couldn't handle the blow and had gone to do something foolish.
If that were the case, her sin would be great.
So after sending many messages and not seeing Lin Qi reply, she made a call.
Now, hearing that Lin Qi was fine, her heart finally settled.
"Nothing, I just didn't notice the messages earlier. Don't worry about it; I'm fine now."
"Anyway, thank you for buying me."
Lin Qi replied with a smile, his tone carrying a hint of ease.
Looking at the original owner's affairs as an outsider, he not only didn't consider them a big deal but actually found them a bit amusing.
He had just read the messages the girl sent and felt that although what this girl did was quite bizarre, she was indeed a good person.
But then again, what kind of good person buys a simp to release them!
"Are you really okay?"
On the other end of the phone, the girl listened to Lin Qi's tone with some suspicion.
After she bought this account, she read all of Lin Qi's and the seller's chat history.
A dead simp, purity overload.
He didn't seem like someone who could act so nonchalant.
Could he be pretending to be strong?
Thinking of this, the girl couldn't help but sigh.
If she had known it would be this much trouble, she wouldn't have bought him.
But since things had come to this, she had to find a way to resolve it.
Thinking of this, the girl lightly coughed and said softly.
"How about this, you just confessed to me, didn't you? Although I can't accept you right now, I think we can give each other a chance to get to know each other, what do you say?"
The girl's voice tinkled like a spring, making Lin Qi's mood inexplicably much better.
Her voice was really pleasant.
Oh no, could it be that I also have the potential to be a simp?
Lin Qi shook his head, clearing his thoughts.
He had to admit that he was indeed a voice-lover, with poor resistance to pleasant voices.
And the voice the girl was currently displaying perfectly hit his comfort zone.
"Okay, then let's give each other a chance to get to know each other."
"Great, then it's settled. You're not allowed to do anything foolish, you hear? Bye-bye ~"
After her words fell, with a beep, the call abruptly ended.
Lin Qi looked at his phone, then shook his head with a smile.
You were too late, girl. If you had called earlier, the original owner might have been fine.
"Ding dong ~"
The message notification sound rang again.
Birds and Fish: "Oh, I still don't know your name. My name is Lu Yinuo."
Charging for Love: "Lin Qi."
Birds and Fish: "OK, don't dwell on today's events. Eat something good, rest up, and love yourself more."
Seven Seas Seven Seas: "You're right, thank you."
Lin Qi replied to the message. Looking at the screen name "Charging for Love", he almost got awkward cancer and quickly changed his name.
Then, after chatting with Lu Yinuo for a couple more sentences, he put down his phone.
Lu Yinuo ~
Just wondering what she looks like ~
Lin Qi originally wanted to check her Moments, but suddenly remembered that she bought this account, so he could only reluctantly give up.
