Huh? Isn't This A Galgame?-Chapter 4 - 3 Kneeling to the Big Shot

The barrage exploded:

[Huh?]

[!!!]

[Bro, impressive]

[Respect, you're a real man]

[This stream is worth it]

[Place your bets, place your bets]

The moment Wen Nan kissed Qiqi on the lips, the stream's popularity and odds skyrocketed. Even the usually stingy audience started sending gifts.

[New here, the body is still warm, can someone explain why after touching Qiqi, she appeared?]

[Qiqi is a three-and-a-half star female ghost. Her star rating isn't too high because she senses human emotions through skin contact, get it?]

[Not really]

[...]

[Bro, are you a cloud player? Down before you even encounter a female ghost?]

[Haha, kind of]

[Do you know the essence of clearing each map in this game?]

[Avoiding all female ghosts as much as possible?]

[Of course not! That's newbie gameplay. At intermediate levels and above, you'll find female ghosts everywhere, just relying on hiding won't let you pass]

[Then what should you do? Kill them?]

[...]

[Do you know how terrifying a five-star female ghost is? You'll realize when you encounter one, who's killing whom]

[Then what do you do?]

[Do everything you can to keep the female ghost in a dormant state]

[Dormant state?]

[Just don't let them appear]

[Can we players control that?!]

[Of course!]

[Before players intervene, female ghosts don't know they are ghosts. As long as you don't let them awaken, they won't appear]

[Like a remote bomb, if it isn't triggered, it won't explode]

[Fear, doubt, hesitation, indecision—these emotions of the player are all triggers]

[Especially fear. As soon as they sense even a trace of fear, you're done]

[Earlier, when Ye Jiu touched Qiqi's cheek, he must have hesitated a bit. It's the lightest trigger mechanism, causing a partial appearance of Qiqi, not her complete ghost form]

[So, if Ye Jiu keeps his emotions stable and doesn't trigger anything further, he might actually control Qiqi's full appearance?]

[In theory, yes, but practically impossible]

[Ye Jiu is likely not a pure newbie. He even had the courage to directly kiss her, suggesting he tried to cover his fear and hesitation with this bold move]

[But unfortunately, it's useless]

[No one can control their subconscious]

[You've seen it, Qiqi has already ghosted—her face greenish-blue, eyes without pupils, blood oozing from every orifice—right in your face, can you really stay calm inside?]

["She's a ghost", "She's going to kill me", "She's terrifying"—these thoughts and emotions cannot be wholly erased]

[No matter how calm you act, as long as the fear remains inside, the female ghost will sense it as clear as day]

[So, is Ye Jiu doomed?]

[Doomed]

[Completely doomed]

[No way out]

[Done for]

[No suspense]

[What follows is just garbage time, no need to watch]

[Just wait to collect Gold Coins, but the odds are so high, you probably won't earn much]

The chat reached this point and entered a wise man mode, as all viewers waited for Wen Nan's demise.

Meanwhile, on the bleachers of the playground, Wen Nan was passionately kissing Qiqi's lips.

A drop of blood fell from the corner of Qiqi's eye, landing on the back of Wen Nan's hand.

The cold touch made Wen Nan pause.

A similar scenario had just occurred three hours ago.

...

Three hours earlier, Taoyuan Mental Hospital.

Wen Nan sat on a soft sofa, beside him sat his primary doctor.

"How have you been feeling lately?"

"Pretty good."

"Still having nightmares?"

"No."

"Do you still see them during the day?"

"No."

A drop of blood dripped from the ceiling, landing on the back of Wen Nan's hand.

Wen Nan raised his hand and rubbed the drop of blood.

It was dark and sticky, with a faint rust smell.

"What is it?" Doctor Zhang pointed at the back of Wen Nan's hand.

Wen Nan glanced at Doctor Zhang and smiled, "Doctor Zhang, the ceiling is leaking, needs fixing."

Doctor Zhang looked up and saw a wet patch on the ceiling, "We should find someone to fix it."

Wen Nan kept a subtle smile, looking at Doctor Zhang.

But Doctor Zhang felt like Wen Nan wasn't looking at him, rather at someone over his shoulder.

Doctor Zhang turned to look, but there was only a wall with a landscape painting hanging on it.

"Who's behind me?" Doctor Zhang asked Wen Nan in the calmest possible voice.

Wen Nan shook his head, "No one."

"Then what are you looking at?"

"The new painting, it's nice."

Doctor Zhang scrutinized Wen Nan for a while before nodding, dropping the topic.

He lowered his head, scribbling in his notebook, then raised his head again, looking at Wen Nan with a serious demeanor.

"Wen Nan."

"Hmm?"

"We're sitting here to treat your perception disorder. There's no need to treat me as an enemy. If you can clearly distinguish between reality and illusion, that's a good thing, just tell me, no need to deliberately hide it."

"I understand, Doctor Zhang." Wen Nan nodded earnestly, appearing very obedient, "But, I haven't hidden anything. I really didn't see anything."

...

Three hours later, Wen Nan unexpectedly got drawn into this game, sitting on a strange campus bleacher, passionately kissing his sudden childhood friend.

Initially, Qiqi was still immersed in the sadness of her subtle confession being rejected, not expecting Wen Nan to suddenly kiss her, leaving her entire body rigid like a wooden stake.

As the kiss continued, Qiqi's body gradually softened, starting to respond to Wen Nan's kiss.

She wrapped her hands around Wen Nan, gently stroking his arm with her palm.

Like someone with a skin craving disorder, Qiqi seemed very enthused with physical contact, and seeing that Wen Nan didn't resist, her actions became bolder, exploring some indescribable areas to maximize contact...

Wen Nan chuckled softly, indulging her little movements, the two of them becoming entwined.

[?]

[???]

[?????????]

[Why hasn't Qiqi fully appeared?]

[Not only hasn't she fully appeared, but even the ghostified parts disappeared!]

[What's going on?!]

[How can this be?!]

[But it's already been five minutes, their skins have been touching the whole time, and Qiqi can't sense his fear and hesitance]

[Then only one possibility remains—he genuinely isn't afraid at all]

[That ghost face was right in front of him, and he still didn't realize Qiqi is a ghost?]

[That's a female ghost! Is he blind? How could he do that with a ghost?!]

[Why does he look like he's enjoying it?!]

For a moment, the chat was filled with shock, confusion, and disbelief.

Then, a message floated by, casually solving everyone's confusion:

[He's one of those nine legendary bosses, switched accounts?]

[Crap, that's actually possible!]

[I've heard there are hidden items in higher-level maps allowing account and identity swaps]

[Ah, that explains it]

[Which legendary boss is it]

[I bow to the boss]

[Boss, I was wrong, I shouldn't have questioned you]

[Boss, those comments were my dog's doing, not mine]

[Boss, tell me your name, I'll recharge in your guild immediately]

[Received a reward, credited with 5 Gold Coins]

[Received a reward, credited with 10 Gold Coins]

[Received a reward, credited with 50 Gold Coins]

[Received a reward, credited with 100 Gold Coins]

...

One reward after another filled Jiu cilang's stream.

Wen Nan was unaware, as he tangled with Qiqi, while calling to his system in his mind: [9527, check the task progress]

9527: [Main Task 1, current completion rate 10%]

Wen Nan: ?

Why so low?

This task said "go on the date", he came, spent an enjoyable night, flirted, kissed, and would soon send Qiqi safely back to the dorm, isn't that it?

Then why is the progress only one-tenth?

Just as he pondered, a figure appeared in the corner of his eye.

Wen Nan released Qiqi, turned to look at the figure.

Standing not far away was a slender girl in a white dress with long hair draping her shoulders, staring intently at the two of them.

The girl held a pink envelope tightly in her hand.

Earlier that day, she had slipped that pink envelope into Ye Jiu's desk, inviting him to the playground in the evening.

But instead of meeting the person she wanted to ask out, she saw that person and another girl kissing under the night sky.

The girl's lips were tightly pursed, tears shimmering in her eyes, she said aggrievedly, "I was here first..."

Wen Nan was dumbfounded.

Buzz, buzz, buzz.

His pocket vibrated with a series of prompts.

Wen Nan took out his phone, several messages popped up—

[Ye Jiu, 9 PM tonight, back door of the classroom, waiting for you]

[Little Jiu, I bought supper, the car is parked at your school gate, can you come out and get it]

[Big dummy! Our school is on holiday, I'm going to see you now!]

Wen Nan: ???

No way, this so-called "meet for appointment" task has five parallel threads?!

Meaning he needs to date five targets simultaneously?!
