The Most Random System

"Of course you're my biological child." Wu Min glanced at Lin Li.

"I don't believe it. I want a paternity test! I'm definitely a child you snatched from traffickers or an orphanage!" Lin Li was unwilling to believe.

Wu Min sighed and looked at Lin Li, "If you were adopted or bought from traffickers, why would I choose someone like you? Do I have something wrong with my head?"

Lin Li: "..."

Eh?

Not adopted?

Lin Li sat on the ground, trying to use everything he had learned to counter Wu Min's absurd claim.

Damn, I failed.

My mom's words really sting.

"Hmm, no test needed, I must be biological." Lin Li conceded, perhaps his cooking skills but lack of love for it came from Wu Min's genes.

Carrying his backpack, Lin Li headed towards his room, but Wu Min called out to stop him.

"Lin Li, your deliveries are all in the sunroom," Wu Min frowned slightly, "those backpacks, clothes, shields, and protective gear, what are you using them for?"

Wu Min wouldn't open Lin Li's deliveries without permission, but these items weren't discreetly shipped, so seeing the descriptions outside was normal for Wu Min.

Lin Li immediately posed with an air of arrogance over the world:

"These are my tactical gear. I'm planning a rebellion, to take over Nansang Middle School armed. If Principal Nansang can be Mr. Wang, then why can't I be Mr. Lin?"

Wu Min: "..."

This cursed child.

"I should've swapped for another child when adopting." Wu Min rubbed her temples in frustration, revealing a shocking secret as she waved her hand dismissively like swatting flies, "Don't waste too much energy on this hobby; what's important now is your studies."

"Haha, you probably don't even know your adopted child's rank in this month's exam, do you?" Lin Li immediately became proud upon hearing this.

"If I didn't know, you'd be getting scolded by me right now, Lin Li. You should understand how hard it is for me to hold back from scolding you."

"Hehe."

"Don't get too arrogant, keep it up." In reality, Wu Min remained calm, having already bragged to relatives like the seventh aunt and eighth uncle, and siblings took turns boasting, "Mom always believed in your ability. Aim for a 985 or 211 university."

"I don't like drinking, I'm not interested in bar dancing." Lin Li waved his hand dismissively and dragged his deliveries back into his room.

He took out a crumpled one-yuan note from his pocket, placed it in the cabinet, and flattened it.

This note carries pleasant memories too.

First, he went downstairs to have a meal and casually ate "Bai Bufan's sausages" before returning to his room where he immediately opened all his deliveries.

There were many things: civilian-standard bulletproof vests, tactical backpacks, shields, isolation clothes, helmets...

He also bought weapons like tactical knives, fruit knives, iron rods. However, Lin Li had them delivered to a station instead of home, since if Wu Min saw these, she might really suspect he wanted to become an American-style boy at Nansang Middle School.

This scattered collection cost Lin Li over two thousand. This was already a result of exercising thrift.

As for quality... passable.

At Tokyo University, collecting these as non-professionals is considered a niche 'hobby', which means high premiums for niche items; those of good quality have unit prices exceeding a thousand, which is normal.

A top-tier exploration and attack-defense gear set requires at least a hundred thousand.

After unpacking everything, Lin Li tested them by wearing or handling them.

Although Lin Li had gotten much stronger, his frame was still on the slim side. The sizes fit but weren't snug, yet given the limitations, they were passable.

Today is the sixth, Sunday, and tomorrow begins a new week.

Lin Li continued studying driving test knowledge and awaited tonight.

While working on questions on his phone, a message from Bai Bufan popped up.

"Bai Bufan: Lin Li, if you suddenly fell into a movie, which film would you wish it to be?"

Lin Li laughed.

Low EQ: Buddy, give me some film codes.

High EQ: If you suddenly fell into a movie, which film would you wish it to be?

"Lin Li: 'Warhammer 40k: Space Marine'"

"Bai Bufan: ?"

"Bai Bufan: If you can use this, then you are this 'Like' 'Like' 'Like'

"Lin Li: I think the Emperor is still charming."

"Bai Bufan: Then you are very loyal, you better really want to go, don't just talk loyalty, when asked everybody backs out. Besides this film, anything else?"

"Lin Li: You've got so many in your own cloud storage, why ask me? Haven't you quit this crap?"

"Bai Bufan: I'm quitting right now, Lin Li, I've discovered a very effective quitting method. As long as you use once when you feel like using, you won't want to use anymore. It's super effective! You should try it too."

Lin Li: "?"

Who let this genius out?

Work hard, work when learning driving test knowledge, leisure time dedicated to refining Qingzheng Thunder Control Technique, time passes into late night, midnight approaches.

[Update complete]

Punctual update.

Lin Li immediately opened the interface, exceeding his expectations, was that the text still hadn't appeared. However, as he expected, the illuminated button among three was once again the first one, which he guessed as 'Departure'.

He can go to that world again.

Lin Li stood up from his chair, took a deep breath, loosened up, then lay on the big bed.

Not going tonight.

The preparations aren't done yet; no weapons on hand, not to mention Wu Min is at home. Lin Li's plan at least needs to wait until tomorrow when Wu Min goes to work, then he can go in the evening.

If not smooth, delay it.

It's basically concluded now that each week there's an opportunity to 'return to reality', no need to rush.

Delaying till the weekend this week is fine.

Even if delaying causes waste of this week's chance, Lin Li won't feel regretful.

No joke, Lin Li still feels some trepidation about that world, even with armor that revives you, he remains cautious, better to prepare as much as possible.

Open [Marketplace].

Spent 50 system currency to buy another "Recharge Crystal" upping inventory to 2, then utilized this week's free refresh on its third slot.

"Random Quality Spirit Stone" and "Fortune Talisman," Lin Li won't touch them for now.

[You've refreshed to A+ Combat Armor (Lin Li Perfect Model): 1000 system currency, replace?]

Another Mecha.

Two Mechas even priced the same, the only difference is the last one was B++, this time is A+.

Last time Lin Li could easily abandon, but this time he couldn't.

Currently, he has 520 system currencies, still half missing, honestly speaking, accumulating five hundred system currencies in a week isn't realistic, even when the next refresh opportunity comes, he couldn't replace.

But after thinking for a moment, Lin Li chose to replace.

Because cumulative system currency has reached 2050, getting another 50 unlocks the fourth slot, providing one more choice.

Tend to wake early today, so Lin Li sleeps.

…

Despite no task binding, Lin Li still woke promptly.

Today Lin Li chose to head to the community park to practice.

"Good morning, Grandpa Zhou."

Seeing Lin Li, Zhou Youwei nodded happily.

Cunning remains cunning, being absent for several days really made morning exercise feel missing something.

Usually when Lin Li is nearby, imagining practicing is combating him, it really energizes the effort.

Focused over an hour passing, until feeling further practice would significantly diminish returns, Lin Li stopped.

The continuous drizzle over National Day cooled the weather, no longer making practice cause a sweaty mess.

And regarding personal condition, the exhaustive fatigue like Bai Bufan is early extinguished, after focused practice, at most the breath is slightly heavy.

Stood firmly, stabilized breathing, Lin Li turned towards Zhou Youwei still practicing Tai Chi.

Clearly sneakily observing him but immediately averting gaze pretending not to watch when noticing his attention.

Still sneakily learning, old trendy Korean style old man.

Perhaps it's time to attempt mission two.

"Grandpa Zhou," Lin Li stepped forward, inquiring earnestly.

"What's up?"

"Could we spar once again?" Lin Li sincerely asked.

Zhou Youwei was stunned.

Then Lin Li noticed Zhou Youwei seemingly trembling —— attention to detail after enhanced insight easily spots these small cues.

Does this excite him so much?

"Uh, Grandpa Zhou, if it's not feasible it's fine," Lin Li quickly added.

"Spar! Absolutely spar!" Zhou Youwei immediately shouted and gestured, cutting off Lin Li, his eyes seemed a little moist:

"I've waited for this day... for too long..."

Lin Li: "?"
