Chapter 1 Why are you all so calm?

"Why are you... why are you all so calm?" another girl asked, sitting on a chair, curled up, with tear stains still visible on her face, obviously having just cried. "What time-travel? Are you filming a show?"

The girl was wearing adorable bear pajamas, loose-fitting, with half of her snow-white calves exposed, which made Fatty subconsciously think of Zhang Yinyin from the school's dungeon.

"Girl," a rough man with a black face and a thick beard sighed, and then said in very broken Mandarin, "We've already explained the nightmare thing. In short, if you don't complete the task, you definitely won't be able to escape."

Hearing this, the girl's tears, which had already stopped, were about to burst again.

But it was clear that no one could take care of her feelings now.

After getting acquainted for a while, Fatty found that, in addition to the doctor posing as a newbie, there were also two guys here who claimed to be newbies and acted like it.

The pajama girl was one, and the other was a man in a white shirt and washed-out white jeans, with a pair of canvas shoes on his feet with the laces tied neatly.

He didn't look old, looking like a college student.

Although he appeared calm, the fear in his eyes betrayed him.

He was very nervous, and his lips were faintly pale.

After waiting for a while, and no one else came, everyone stopped waiting and simply started the self-introduction session.

"Meeting is fate, even in a place like this," the first to speak was a refined man in his 30s, with a handsome face, a tall figure, and simple, decent clothes, with a pair of rimless glasses on his nose.

His tone carried a hint of undisguised bitterness, but it had more authenticity than those sanctimonious guys from before.

"Now, please introduce yourselves, your names, occupations, and your areas of expertise," the refined man said with a wry smile, "I hope we can all survive this time."

Hearing this, the originally noisy environment instantly quieted down, and the pajama girl, who was sobbing softly, also raised her head and stared at him with red and swollen eyes.

Survive... for people in nightmares, it was just a distant dream.

"I'll start," the refined man perked up. "My name is An Xuan, and I'm a forensic doctor."

"On-site medical investigation, medical tracking and evidence collection, medical examination and observation of injuries on living bodies, autopsy, identification of relics, etc., are all within my scope."

Seemingly worried that everyone would misunderstand his profession, he explained it in detail.

"A cop..." A wretched-looking blond youth sniffed and glanced at the refined man with a slightly unnatural expression. When he noticed that the latter was also looking at him, he unconsciously avoided his gaze.

"Yes," An Xuan said with a smile, nodding. "What about you?" he asked.

After hesitating for a while, the young man said, "My name is Shi Liaozhi, and my job is... to help people move." Then he added, "I don't have any skills."

"Is it... the kind with permission?"

A weak voice came from the side, and the self-proclaimed Shi Liaozhi's face immediately turned unnatural.

Following the voice, everyone found that it was the lazy man from before who spoke.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Jiang Cheng showed a flustered expression on his face. He wrapped himself tighter in the quilt, as if worried that everyone would do something to him.

"What's your name?" An Xuan ignored the previous question and looked at Jiang Cheng.

"My name is Hao Shuai," Jiang Cheng still looked scared, but seemed to have thought of something, and a touch of shyness began to appear on his cheeks.

But Fatty, who knew him well, knew that the doctor wasn't shy, but proud of the stunning performance to come.

A few seconds later—

"I'm a model," Jiang Cheng said, blushing, raising his neck and saying, "I work the night shift at a KTV, and I'm in the high-end group. Do you understand high-end group? Generally, only one can be selected from about 20 young talents. The elimination rate is shockingly high."

"We can only be seen by appointment, and only in private rooms. We will never lower our status to go to the common area," he paused, took a breath, and continued, "Our goal is to bring the most comfortable experience to our customers."

Everyone was shocked, so much so that the room was silent for a long time.

The focused Fatty noticed someone leaning slightly towards his position, and then a suppressed voice came, "Is he always like this when he's with you?"

It was Xia Meng's voice.

He could tell that her tolerance for the doctor was nearing its threshold.

But at this moment, Fatty's heart was calm, because he knew that every word the doctor was saying now was! TRUE!

And the real situation was even more exaggerated than he described.

"No," Fatty replied.

Xia Meng's face improved slightly.

"Sometimes he also takes off and lands Boeing 747s," Fatty said calmly, "It mainly depends on the doctor's mood at the time."

It wasn't clear if it was because of Jiang Cheng, but everyone's self-introductions became much briefer, and some people even just introduced their names and occupations and ended it hastily.

There were a total of ten people, besides the doctor, An Xuan, and Shi Liaozhi who had already introduced themselves, there were 7 people left.

Including Fatty and Chen Xiaomeng, four men and three women.

The Tai Chi old man who had spoken before was named Qin Jian, and he used to work in a state-owned enterprise and was now retired at home.

The black-faced man's name was You Qi, and he worked in logistics. His muscular body looked strong and powerful, but he was very easy-going, speaking in a muffled voice, belonging to the kind whose appearance and personality didn't match.

The girl in the bear pajamas was called Tang Shirou, and her name matched her gentle and weak appearance very well. According to her, she was a slightly famous online video blogger, and she also dabbled in the cosplay scene.

The white-shirted youth was called Chen Qiang, an unremarkable name, and as he had guessed before, he was a student, studying at a polytechnic university.

When he introduced himself, his voice was very small, and he seemed to be very wary of the people around him.

There was also an elegantly dressed woman, with light makeup on her face, as if she had just returned from an evening banquet. She introduced herself as Zuo Qing, and currently worked as a secretary in a company.

Flipping her hair, Zuo Qing showed the unique charm of a woman of her age.

Xia Meng still used the alias Chen Xiaomeng, but her profession and previous persona had changed. She now identified herself as a student at the Academy of Fine Arts.

Finally, everyone looked at Fatty in unison, leaving him as the last one.

"Hello everyone," Fatty, who was about to have a name for the first time, said with a flushed face, "My name is Jiang Fugui, and I'm a truck driver. I'm not an orphan."
