Chapter 2 The system is as sad as a [-]-yen store

After leaving school, Haihara returned to the rented apartment in Meguro District alone.

He now lives alone because in the disaster that befell Tokyo three months ago, the parents of "Aihara" also unfortunately passed away.

Regarding that disaster, the official has so far said that it is "under investigation" and has not given any reasonable explanation.

What Huiyuan learned after collecting information was that in those few minutes, two supernatural huge light curtains fell on the world in a cross shape.Moreover, the intersection of the cross is Tokyo.

Where the light curtain fell, the damage to the building itself was minimal.Secondly, as Hui Yuanyuan saw, that supernatural light has a certain driving force on some small objects whose classification is temporarily unknown.

The most serious consequences occur when these lights fall on people - most of the people in the light curtain are actually the same, but there are a small number of people, like Kawano Naoki, who behave in a way that cannot be explained scientifically. It melted in a certain way, and quickly collapsed into a trace amount of ash that was not equivalent to its original size a few hours after the light curtain disappeared.

In addition to these direct victims, there are also some casualties due to secondary accidents. The total number of victims is estimated to be on the order of tens of thousands in the entire Tokyo.It is a small proportion compared to the entire population of Tokyo, but for a metropolis with high-speed information dissemination and dense population, it is already a disaster that has had a huge impact on society.

This time, it is no longer a news that is only broadcast on TV and has nothing to do with itself.Almost everyone can truly feel that there are fewer familiar faces around them.Even, losing a loved one.

The family of "Haiyuan Original Body" is such an example.

When Hui Yuanchu traveled through time, the original owner of this body, "Hui Yuan's original body", was indeed dead.

Afterwards, Hui Yuanchu reconstructed the situation at that time by recalling various clues at the scene: I don’t know whether it was good luck or bad luck, but the "Hui Yuan original body" who was also under the light curtain did not become a monster like Kawano, but He was fatally injured due to another accident - many knives in the kitchen were activated by the light curtain and shot out randomly. One of them flew into the living room and stabbed him.

Driven by panic or ignorance, he then made the worst possible choice: he pulled the knife out himself.Naturally, he hemorrhaged to death very soon, and before he died, he was still tightly holding onto the knife that killed him...After that, Hui Yuan first descended on this body, and then he was repaired by the system and woke up.

At the same time that "Aihara's original body" himself died in the Kawano family, his parents were also killed in another place in Tokyo.

Haiyuanchu's current guardian is the sister of the father of "Haiyuanchu's original body" who is also in Tokyo.But for various reasons, this aunt obviously didn't want to see him.Since the incident, she had only appeared once on the day when Hui Yuanchu's investigation was completed, signed to take him away from the police station and sent him to this rented apartment.After that, Hui Yuanchu never successfully contacted her again.

Fortunately, at least her monthly living expenses will still be paid one cent at a time.Huiyuan originally didn't want to expose his abnormality, so he was relieved that he didn't have to live with someone who might be familiar with his predecessor.

Dinner is a bento from a convenience store, and then I take a shower.After all the debris was cleared away, Hui Yuanchu lay down on the floor, opened the system interface, looked at the information on it, and began to think deeply.

This mysterious system that appears with time travel is actually very simple. It has no status, no points, and only two parts: tasks and "powers."

There are three types of tasks, main line, side line and daily.Now, his mission interface simply lists four lines of words:
[Side mission (ongoing): Help Tamaki Yumiko]

[Daily Mission 1/3 (Completed): Picked up a 500 yen coin at the junction of the sixth and seventh carriages of the tram]

[Daily Task 2/3 (Completed): Purchase the third bottle of Yakult from the second row in the second row on the southernmost shelf of the 711 convenience store, and receive the reward of "Another Bottle"]

[Daily Mission 3/3 (Completed): Consult the convenience store clerk to get a hidden discount for purchasing a special extra-large pork cutlet bento for 500 yen]

Daily tasks are refreshed three times a day.A typical daily task looks like this:

【日常任务1/3：以1-37-24-14-10-6的选号购买1注乐透彩票（注：购买错误的注数无法完成任务）】

mission rewards?

The two thousand yen in the lottery is the mission reward!
The painting style of daily tasks is so unpretentious.The rewards are similar to the lottery in the supermarket. Hui Yuanchu has received milk, bento, shampoo, bottle opener, recharge point card... Moreover, the way the system handed over things to Hui Yuanchu is too natural, not at all like It was exactly what Huiyuan had expected: items with luxurious special effects "clanging" from the void and hitting him in front of him.

Therefore, Hui Yuanchu complained more than once that the daily tasks should be renamed the "Mosquito Legs for Free" task or the "Rat Feeding Task".

——Note, it is not Hui Yuanchu who feeds the mice, but the system feeds Hui Yuanchu as the mice.

However, despite feeling unhappy, Hui Yuanchu had to admit: relying on the unobtrusive but uninterrupted windfall support from daily tasks, he could indeed live a good life without having to work at all.

……

In addition to daily tasks, another type of tasks is side tasks.Hui Yuanchu looked at the description of the side mission he had just triggered - side mission: Help Tamaki Yumiko

The mission made it clear that Tamaki Yumiko would encounter some kind of evil that was waiting for her tomorrow night.

What this malicious intent is, the system does not explain clearly.But Hui Yuanchu couldn't help but think of the last side mission - "Kill Kawano".

The first impression Hui Yuan got from that mission was naturally very profound, that is: Kawano’s terrifying appearance was the style of the side mission.This is not as gentle as daily tasks.

The mission system calls Kawano's state an "evil spirit".Although he still doesn't know the essential reason, Hui Yuanchu at least knows that this kind of existence is very dangerous.

The information he later collected on the Internet showed that many people degenerated into evil spirits because of being illuminated by that light curtain.They come in all shapes and sizes, but there are only a few that are as harmless as Kawano.Most evil spirits wreak havoc and murder for a few minutes before ceasing their activity.

Therefore, when the side mission was triggered again today, Haiyuan immediately had an association - if the side plot was triggered at this time, does it indicate that similar terrible things will happen around Tamaki Yumiko?
Maybe the only one who has a chance to change the outcome is Hui Yuanchu.

Therefore, after a brief hesitation, Haiyuan chose to change his mind and accepted Tamaki Yumiko's invitation - this system task actually did not have any means of forced erasure.In other words, Hui Yuanchu could treat the tasks released by the system as if he had not seen anything.

Just like this time, as long as Haiyuan does not accept Tamaki Yumiko's invitation, then he is essentially avoiding this side mission.

But Huiyuan didn't do that.

Because at that moment, he found two good reasons for him to save Tamaki Yumiko.

One of the reasons was that since Haiyuan already knew that Tamaki Yumiko might be in danger, he could no longer allow himself to pretend not to know.

After all, since Haiyuan first came to this place, Tamaki Yumiko was the first few people he met who treated him with kindness.

The second reason is because Hui Yuanchu finally confirmed that the side mission is not meaningless.If he still wants to advance the main quest, it's best to complete the side quests as much as possible.

On Hui Yuanchu's mission interface, there are currently no main missions in progress.

Apart from daily tasks, the system actually has no sense of existence at ordinary times.So far, it has only released one main mission and one side mission when Haiyuan first arrived in this world, and then it has been silent for three full months, until Yumiko Tamaki's mission was triggered today.

But in the past three months, Hui Yuanchu has noticed many problems.

First of all, unlike side quests, main quests...should be impossible to avoid.The system has the ability to make it impossible for him to escape.

Just like "becoming Hui Yuanchu", he had no choice.

And this is actually consistent with the normal performance of the system.Regardless of the appearance of those daily tasks, each one is as poor and miserable as a [-]-yen store, but the way these tasks are completed itself illustrates a terrible fact - this system can glimpse destiny to a certain extent, and even arrange destiny. .

Secondly, the system did not allow him to enjoy high school life by allowing him to travel through time and feed him until he was white and fat. The word "task" means that sooner or later the system will ask him to do something... no, force him to do it.

That's the real main mission.

And, that must have been a very difficult event.

Therefore, before the main storyline was triggered, the system arranged for Hui Yuanchu to "level up" or "add skill points" - that is, complete side tasks and obtain "powers" as rewards.

Hui Yuanchu thought as he moved his gaze to the power page.
