(Written by Infinite Bulldozer, 1980 words) “Where’s my lighter?” Zhou Ye was completely dumbfounded.
He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, stood up, and was afraid that he was seeing things and that the lighter had just fallen behind the monitor.
Having already been disappointed once, he really didn’t want to be disappointed a second time so soon…
So he carefully checked the computer desk.
It wasn’t there.
OK!
I turned around again and looked at the back of the computer screen, but there was still nothing there.
Suppressing his excitement, Zhou Ye slowly turned his gaze to the Tokyo Hot series playing on the screen.
With his sharp eyes, he immediately spotted his familiar disposable lighter with the small advertisement printed on it next to the pillow of the woman screaming on the screen.
“Holy crap, buddy, I’m really going to be rich!” Zhou Ye’s mouth dropped open as he stared intently at the woman screaming at the top of her lungs on the screen.
If there were anyone familiar with the scene, they would have thought this movie was going to be incredibly exciting!
“Calm down—calm down!
Zhou Ye, you can do it!” He gasped for air while pressing his hand firmly against his chest, trying to calm his heart, which was pounding wildly with excitement…
“Don’t get excited, we still don’t know if we’ve traveled to the movie world or the movie filming location…” It took Zhou Ye a while to calm himself down and steady his mind.
He then opened another movie about picking up girls on the beach, which was also part of the “Tokyo is Hot” series.
Zhou Ye shakily reached his hand towards the computer screen, watching as his hand rippled as if it had been plunged into water.
Then, an irresistible, immense suction force pulled him in, and he felt the world spin around him.
In a moment, a beach appeared before him, with bikini-clad girls coming and going, and the sounds of waves and the chirping of Japanese voices filling his ears… “Holy crap, buddy, this is really going to be a hit!” Zhou Ye clenched his fists excitedly, completely ignoring the fact that he was only wearing his underwear…
Okay, he ignored it, but someone else did.
A whistle blew, and a girl in a life jacket walked quickly toward him, shouting something as she went.
“What?
What did you say?” Zhou Ye stared at the girl in front of him, rapidly speaking Japanese, completely bewildered by what she was excitedly shouting…
“A Chinese person?” It seems the girl can speak a few words of Chinese.
“Yes!” Zhou Ye nodded; he understood what he meant.
“What’s up?” “Here—” The girl thought for a long time but couldn’t figure out how to express “underwear” in Chinese.
Helpless, she reached out and pulled Zhou Ye up, and quickly walked to a large notice board next to them.
“Don’t pull me, I’m not that kind of guy!” Zhou Ye said, secretly pleased with himself while pretending to be serious.
This is what they call a repressed flirt.
“Here!” The girl pointed to the notice board, which read “Underwear Prohibited” in large traditional Chinese characters.
She then let go of his hand and pointed to his crotch.
“…” Zhou Ye only realized then that he had run in wearing only his underwear in his excitement, and his face immediately turned bright red.
“I’ve embarrassed myself internationally!
I want to die!” Looking at Zhou Ye’s bright red face, the girl couldn’t help but cover her mouth and giggle.
In her opinion, this uncle was so interesting that he could actually blush.
Could this be the legendary herbivore man?
Hearing the girl’s laughter, Zhou Ye couldn’t help but feel incredibly frustrated.
“I really want to disappear from here!
I really want to leave!” Just as he was thinking of leaving, everything suddenly went black, then brightened again, and the scene of his little apartment came into view once more…
“What?
I’m back again?
It seems that as long as I think about leaving, I can get out of the movie world!
So, will my entry affect the plot?” Thinking of this, Zhou Ye hurriedly looked at his computer screen again.
In the corner of the screen of the man who had flirted with him, the girl who had just accused him of wearing underwear was looking around blankly.
She was probably wondering why a living person had disappeared in front of her in an instant.
“But looking closely, this girl is actually quite pretty!” Zhou Ye casually joked.
“Looks like I really can travel into the movie world.
I just wonder if all that high-tech stuff in the movies will work on me!
Like the super soldier serum, or the armor of the steel shoes…
If it does work…
then wouldn’t I be invincible??” While he was lost in his daydreams, he didn’t notice that a progress bar in the upper left corner of the computer screen, resembling a phone charging icon, had moved forward slightly.
At this moment, Zhou Ye had no time to care about any of that.
What he wanted to do most right now was to try and see if the magical things in the movie world would work for him.
The first thing that came to his mind was Chronicle, but after careful consideration, he gave up on that option.
Although the way to gain superpowers in that movie was completely safe, it was clear that he wasn’t very confident about taking on three high school students, after all, he was just a shut-in.
So the second option is my Superman ex-girlfriend.
If she touches the meteorite before that ugly duckling girl, she can gain a Superman-like body, the ability to fly, and so on…
But maybe she’ll need some tools.
With that in mind, he placed an order with a fellow Taobao seller.
Then he found a WeChat account on a Baidu Tieba forum and ordered two kukri knives and a replica military crossbow.
With everything prepared, Zhou Ye began his experiment.
First, after repeatedly traveling through time, he discovered that the time he appeared in the movie was based on the movie’s running scenes.
In other words, even if it was just a memory, he could accurately travel to the point in time that the protagonist was recalling.
This gave him more confidence for his next steps.
He could bring things he could carry into movies, and he could also bring living things from movies into reality.
This discovery made his mouth water instantly.
Five days later, everything he ordered arrived, and his bank account had dwindled to a pitiful three digits.
A set of Kevlar stab-proof vest, a pair of night vision goggles, a pair of cut-resistant gloves, a pair of combat boots with steel plates, a pair of kukri knives, a crossbow, plus a few handcuffs, totaling several thousand RMB!
After getting dressed, Zhou Ye opened “My Superman Ex-Girlfriend” and switched the progress bar to the female lead’s memories.
His first targeted time travel had begun!
