“Where am I?”
Zhao Yu woke and found himself lying on a hospital bed.
“Ouch
Before he could figure out his current situation, taint cries of pain echoed around him.
He started to look around to figure out his location.
It was a small hospital room of about ten square meters, with over a dozen beds crammed inside, but there were no medical staff in sight.
“A hospital?”
Soon, memories started to flow into his mind.
Then, he woke up.
My name is Zhao Yu!
He recall the scene of the clone system split his consciousness into two. This is where my divided consciousness have been transported.
At the same time, he realized there was another set of memories appeared in his mind.
They were memory of the owner of this body.
After a quick scan, Zhao Yu understood the whole story.
They shared the same name as Zhao Yu, a first-year student at Bing City University. He committed suicide by jumping into a lake for love and was subsequently brought to this hospital.
Due to the shortage of medical resources, he was left unattended in this room and eventually passed away.
This incident allowed the protagonist Zhao Yu to possessed and take over this empty body.
He quickly learned about this world.
He was on Neptune, with a civilization level of about 0.6. There used to be hundreds of countries.
Just over a month ago, they came into contact with the Milky Way Empire and were united by force They became the Tian Hai Territory and had a lord just like Earth.
The funny fact was the current lord was just a mere soldier due to the empire. He replaced the previous powerful factions and became the new ruler of Tian Hai Territory.
On the surface, the original ruler obeyed the Lord of Tian Hai, but behind the scenes, they plotted a rebellion to overthrow the current ruler.
It has not affect the living of ordinary people.
What truly brought about change was a the new law issued by the Lord of Tian Hai to send forth one elderly person, to be used as “material” for the empire’s purpose.
The old ruler fueled the public to riot, but they were easily suppressed by the Lord’s army with the weapons sent by the empire.
The overwhelming military force enforced the people gradually accepted their fate. Logically thinking that there are over a billion elderly, only a 100 million would be needed each year.
So, they could sustain at least more than 100 years. As selection of the “material” would be decided by a lottery system, essentially a one-in-ten chance.
At the same time, the lord added a exemption by revealing a person contribution to the country which allowed them to postponed their turn o the next round.
There were many ways to contribute to the territory, For ordinary people, the easiest way was to pay.
Over 5 million Tian Hai dollars, anyone could be exempted once. Still, it was tough for any ordinary person to pay up?
The consequence was a more unstable society, with constant criminal and chaotic happened daily.
But all of this had nothing to do with Zhao Yu. The original owner of his body was an orphan and only 19 years old, far from the age of being used as “material”.
A system prompt quickly appeared in Zhao Yu’s mind as he went through the history of this planet.
Detected the original owner’s last wish: Win the heart of Liu Si Yu.
Complete the original owner’s last wish within a year to turn this body into a clone and gain the ability to resonate with the main consciousness.
A woman?!
Zhao Yu expected that the original owner’s last wish would be so superficial reason since he was brave enough to commit suicide for love.
Meanwhile, he could sense his original consciousness far away in the solar system without the ability to communicate.
“It seems 1 must fulfill his last wish first…”
Zhao Yu delved deeper into the original owner’s memories.
Liu Si Yu was in the same year at Bing City University.
She was the most beautiful girl in the faculty, while he was just an ordinary student.
Reviewing the past year’s memories, Zhao Yu felt a twinge of discomfort.
He discovered that the original owner had spent most of his first semester chasing after Liu Si Yu, persistently.
He was so oblivious to her disinterest, deluding himself into thinking she reciprocated his feelings, becoming even more uncontrollable.
Until one day, Liu Si Yu dared him, “If you truly love me, jump into Lover’s Lake to prove it.”
And soon tragedy happened as his memory recalled.
He did not make it even after rescued.
In the end, Zhao Yu’s split consciousness took over his body.
“I have no experience in dating a women either…”
Zhao Yu was frustrated. With no resources, both parents were deceased, and average in physical and appearance. There were hardly any positive traits.
Perhaps the only positive aspect was his hard work earning a spot in Bing City University as one of the province’s top institutions by himself without any support.
“I don’t want to die! Doctor, save me!”
A cry from a patient in the next bed jolted Zhao Yu back to reality. He saw the man’s chest heavily bandaged, still bleeding.
Without a doubt, he had been shot.
Ever since the Tian Hai established new rule, 90% of the hospital’s patients had been victims of fights or robbery.
Such incidents, before the arrival of the empire, were rare, each significant enough to make headlines..
