"Where am I?"
As the darkness faded away, Lu Chen found himself lying on a bed.
He tried to move, but he felt so weak that he couldn't even shake his fingers. His eyes were open, but everything he saw was blurry.
It felt like someone had shown him a video with a resolution lower than 144p.
He then tried to remember. As he recalled something, a sharp pain shot through his brain.
"Wait, I-I was shot by a thug and died, right?" He looked dumbfounded.
"No, no, no!" He screamed. How loud he tried to scream, his voice came out softer.
"I didn't die, right? I should have been taken to hospital or my parents' house, right?" However much he hoped, the reality was different. "I have so much left to do in life. Buying a house, getting the latest gadgets and games, finding a girlfriend, getting married, and having children..." His voice shook, unable to continue.
