The music, sounds like the soundtrack to a bad alien sci-fi movie.

The red letter announcement on the homepage shows: "The mutual aid group for those who have traversed the system will provide assistance to those of you who have traversed the system world. Everyone exchanges experiences with each other and re-adapts to society. Welcome to join! The next mutual aid group meeting: Saturday night at 8 o'clock, Old Bookworm Bar."

Jiang Yi raised his eyebrows, he couldn't tell if it was an expression of surprise or disgust.

His father had participated in this kind of mutual aid group before his death, but it was organized for alcoholics. People in the mutual aid group supervised each other and shared their experience in quitting alcohol. Generally, they took the route of inspirational life.

But this "system crossing mutual aid group" has a weird feeling on the whole website, the weird page, the unbelievable soundtrack, and the atmosphere of "I am not a normal person" everywhere.

Jiang Yi clicked the mouse, crossing the page.I'm afraid he is really crazy to search for such things on the Internet.

Fast forward to Saturday.

At this point, Jiang Yi went to the company as usual to deal with some work. He worked overtime on weekends, and his subordinates did not dare to leave. All of them were tense and worked hard to make progress in the company.

Jiang Yi stays very late in the company. After the clock passed 7 pm, he began to subconsciously look at his watch frequently.Finally, Liang Fei entered Jiang Yi's office at 7:50. Seeing Jiang Yi looked at his watch again, he tentatively asked, "Leader, do you have an appointment tonight?"

Jiang Yi: "Huh?"

Liang Fei withstood the pressure and continued, "If I have an appointment tonight, shall I take you there?"

"No," Jiang Yi buckled the clock on the table, "You get off work, you don't need a car tonight."

Liang Fei cheered in his heart, made a big bow, and said, "Thank you, leader!"

Jiang Yi realized something and asked, "Is everyone still working overtime?"

Liang Fei: "Yes."

"Let everyone go back," Jiang Yi unbuttoned his shirt and said, "I'll stay later so they don't have to work overtime."

Liang Fei: "Long live the leadership!"

After Liang Fei left Jiang Yi's office, cheers came from outside the door. It seemed that Liang Fei had liberated everyone and became a hero.Jiang Yi shook his head and smiled, feeling that he was indeed a little harsh on the employees before.

When the hands of the clock finally pointed to 8 o'clock, Jiang Yi tapped his fingers on the table, finally sighed, grabbed his coat, and went out the door.

In addition to the usual car Liang Fei drives for him, there are several other personal cars parked in the company's basement.Jiang Yi set the car's navigation to the address of "Old Bookworm Bar", stepped on the accelerator, and drove away from the basement.

The Old Bookworm Bar is not located in the business district of the city center, but in the old town where the flow of people is not so strong.Of course, in such an old city location, there was no parking space planned at first. Jiang Yi walked around a few times before finally finding a parking space.

The weather was very cold, but he didn't put on his coat, just hung it between his elbows, and walked into an unremarkable bar.

It was a Saturday, and it is reasonable to say that entertainment venues should be full of people, but there were no people in this bar, only two or three tables of guests sitting in the corner.

The lights in the bar were dim, and slow-paced music was playing. The waiter came forward, and when he saw Jiang Yi, his eyes lit up.I saw the man wearing a well-fitting and crisp shirt, and the custom-made cufflinks faintly reflected light under the spotlight. His waistline was very graceful, and his long legs were wrapped under the trousers, revealing his good figure.

The waiter immediately made up a lot of stories about this domineering president, and asked, "Who are the gentlemen?"

Jiang Yi looked around, cleared his throat, and said, "I'm here to find..." He stopped in the middle of speaking, lowered his head and smiled, as if he felt that his behavior so far was very ridiculous, and said: "Sorry, I went to the wrong place." After saying that, he turned to leave.

But the waiter stopped Jiang Yi, "Sir! Are you... are you here to join the system crossing mutual aid group? They are in the VIP room at the back."

Jiang Yi stopped and looked at the waiter with an embarrassed smile, but the waiter was blushing and happily led Jiang Yi across the front court to a quiet private room at the back.

When Jiang Yi opened the door and entered, there were already many people present. Everyone was sitting in a row, facing a person who was giving a speech, and no one noticed him.Jiang Yi found an empty seat and sat down, and found that there were more than 20 people sitting side by side in this private room.

The person who is sharing with everyone is a man with the appearance of a man of science and engineering with eyes. There is actually a PPT behind him, which reads in large characters: "Experience sharing and insights from traveling through a high-risk world".

Jiang Yi listened, the man was analyzing how he improved his survival rate and gained experience points in a "mecha world". Many of the words in his mouth sounded unbelievable, but everyone sitting there could hear them. Concentrated, as if what happened was very reasonable, and some people even took notes with a pen and paper.

Jiang Yi suddenly had a very absurd feeling, and wondered for a moment whether he had entered the mental illness department of some hospital by mistake.

The "patient" next to him poked him on the shoulder and asked in a low voice, "Hey, I haven't seen you before, are you new here?"

Jiang Yi looked at the man, and saw that sitting on his left was a middle-aged man with a mustache. He parted his head and wore a pair of round retro glasses, as if he hadn't lived out of the Cold War.

Mustache said: "My surname is Hu, and my name is Hu Che. Hello."

Jiang Yi nodded politely, and reciprocated his name.

Hooch said, "How long have you been back from the system world? I've been back for 3 years."

Hu Che murmured in Jiang Yi's ear, probably saying that he is a volunteer of this group, responsible for holding a mutual aid meeting here every Saturday, if Jiang Yi needs help, he is very happy to help.

At this time, the man in science and engineering who shared earlier also finished his speech, and everyone applauded sparsely.At this time, Hu Che finally didn't have to suppress his voice anymore, and asked, "Mr. Jiang, which system did you come back from?"

Jiang Yi hesitated for a while, and finally selectively ignored some keywords, and replied: "Love and kill each other system."

As soon as Jiang Yi finished speaking, someone around gasped and looked over exaggeratedly.

The small eyes behind Hu Che's glasses are also full of support, "The full name is 'Love and Kill Scum Domestication System'? You just came back from that system?"

Jiang Yi was confused by the white eyes of the mustache. It seemed that there was no privacy in this mutual aid group, so he could only nod.

Hu Che grabbed his arm, with a tragic expression, "Mr. Jiang, you have worked hard! How long have you been wearing it? How have you adapted? Have you returned to a normal life?"

Jiang Yi briefly explained his situation, and Hu Che listened very carefully. While speaking, he saw someone coming in from the private room, and he looked a little excited, and said, "Mr. Jiang, it's a coincidence that you came today. The gentleman who just came in also came back from the 'Love and Kill System', let me introduce you."

So, Hu Che invited the man who had just entered the private room over again, and introduced to Jiang Yi: "Mr. Jiang, this is Uncle Lu, Lu Ping, he is a veteran of our mutual aid group. Crossed over 30 years ago."

Jiang Yi and Lu Ping shook hands, and Hu Che said again: "Uncle Lu, Mr. Jiang just came back from the 'Love and Kill System' more than two weeks ago."

Lu Ping's eyes froze, and he looked at Jiang Yi with a look of joy or sadness, and finally he sighed.

Hu Che: "Then Uncle Lu, Mr. Jiang, you guys talk first, and I'll go see other people first."

After Hu Che left, Lu Ping and Jiang Yi walked out of the bar and lit a cigarette at the door. His hair was already gray, he was wearing a leather jacket, but his face had a vicissitudes of life.

"Did you see your 'that person' when you came back?" Lupine asked straight to the point.

Jiang Yi: "'That person'?"

Lupine exhaled a smoke ring. "Your 'destiny'."

Jiang Yi: "???"

Lu Ping observed Jiang Yi, and realized that he really didn't understand what he was saying, so he swallowed for a while, and then said: "More than 30 years ago, I was as young as you. Complacent, I wish I could feel that the world is mine, I did things regardless of the consequences, and hurt many people... Then I got into a car accident, and as soon as I woke up, I was transmigrated into a system world called 'Love, Kill, and Scum Domesticated'.

"I didn't know before that in this place where we live, there are real people who maintain the world order and human needs. Those who are too outrageous will be brought to the system world. In fact, it is transformation and domestication. Of course, there are systems The world is not for domestication, it's just that the system you and I went to."

Although Jiang Yi had personally experienced the time-traveling experience, listening to Lu Ping's words at this moment, he still felt a little unreal, "What do you mean by 'destined'?"

Lupine looked into the distance with a deep look, "Aren't you very strange, why in the system world, every time and space you travel through, the people you want to attack look the same?"

Jiang Yi's eyes widened slightly, unable to believe that Lu Ping had experienced the same thing as him.

Seeing Jiang Yi's surprised expression, Lu Ping understood, "The person you see is your 'destiny'."

Jiang Yi: "This...how is it possible?"

Lupine: "People in the system world also exist, just like our world
