A few minutes later.
Transparent Bridge woke up from his shabby wooden bed.
A failed dream is like waking up from a nightmare, rather than waking up naturally.
Transparent Bridge sat up, carefully summarized the reasons for the failure, and lay down again after a few minutes.

…
The first sound that sounded was not the sound of voices, but the sound of brisk music.
The screen gradually lights up.
This is the gate of a campus with lush cherry trees on both sides. It is the season when cherry blossoms are in full bloom.
A figure in a blue school uniform stood in front of the door.
A gust of breeze blew by, the cherry blossoms drifted faintly, and the black hair of the figure was also blown.
The back view looked very familiar to Transparent Bridge, and I guessed that it might be me.
The brisk music carries a sour smell of love, and a tinkling bell rings from the teaching building in the distance. Before I can think about it, the camera quickly approaches the back of the figure, and then everything goes black.
The brisk music in the background has disappeared, and the transparent bridge has regained control of the body.

A love-type dream...
The transparent bridge standing in front of the gate whispered.
To be honest, he had little experience, but he could only give it a try.
The second ding-dong bell rang, and Transparent Bridge roughly guessed its meaning. He took a step forward and was about to enter the campus when he saw a line of Chinese characters written on a vertical plaque beside the door.
【Qingtian Boys' High School】
…
Twenty-three minutes later.
Transparent Bridge woke up from the shabby little bed.
History is always surprisingly similar.
Regarding what happened in the dream... when Transparent Bridge endured nausea in the game and secretly stuffed a love letter to a classmate, and made an appointment to meet under the cherry blossom tree at noon, and then... Transparent Bridge missed the appointment.
He couldn't bear the huge pressure and chose to quit the dungeon. It would be uneconomical to change his sexual orientation because of a nightmare.
But if you can guarantee clearance, you might consider it...
Um……?
Um???
Transparent Bridge was thinking wildly, and it was true that only Mu Su could handle this kind of whimsical dream. Both frequencies were in the same band.
He subconsciously cut out the friend list on the Valve game platform. Wen Xiang and Kallen were already grayed out, while Mu Su and several friends he had played with before were still online.
After thinking about it, Transparent Bridge sent a message.
Transparent Bridge:HiMusu
Mu Su: (be wary)
Musu returned quickly.
Transparent Bridge: Ahem, cough, don’t think too much, I’m here to ask for help.
Mu Su: (suspicious)
Transparent Bridge: If you have time... can you team up and play the nightmare difficulty. I can't get through it myself...
Transparent Bridge is a little shy, after all, he is not very familiar with Mu Su.
Musu: That’s it?
Transparent Bridge: Yeah
Mu Su: Well, I don’t want to code anyway, but you just told me not to think too much. What do you mean by not thinking too much?
Transparent Bridge: No... nothing.
Mu Su: (Aware)

What followed was a few minutes of dead silence and nothingness.
Just when the two were impatient, a new system prompt appeared.
[The game has a malfunction and will automatically exit the game after five seconds.]

Without any explanation, the two of them returned from the game to the interface of the Valve game platform.
It came suddenly and retreated equally suddenly.
Transparent Bridge asked Musu: "What's going on?"
Mu Su: Why do you think I will know?
Transparent Bridge also realized that he had asked a stupid question.
Transparent Bridge: Okay, let’s see again tomorrow night. Good night.
Mu Su: (be wary)
The name of the transparent bridge has changed to gray.
…
Mu Su took off the game mask.
It was as if real starlight was pouring in from the window.
Mu Su didn't open the detective agency just for fun, he took it very seriously.
Since you are serious, you can't fool around. Mu Su stood by the bed, crossed his hips and looked around the room.
The bedroom is not small. After placing a large bed, there is still a lot of extra space, which is more than enough for a desk and chair.
But the problem is——
Mu Su scratched his head and turned his attention to the big bed.
If the room is used as a detective office, wouldn't it look unprofessional to put a bed in it?
Although Mu Su likes a big bed very much, and he also likes to lay it on the big bed to form a Tai character, or to lie on it and arrange it to form a Wood character when he is hard. But for the sake of career development, he resolutely decided to change it to a small bed.
In the middle of the night, without any sense of ethics, this guy went to the old couple's room and knocked on the door. After explaining his purpose, the old couple expressed support for his actions. After all, this would make the place livelier. Maybe there is a single bed in the basement.
Yes, it can be replaced tomorrow morning. There is nothing you can do about the office desk and chairs.
As mentioned before, Mu Su was an impatient person who put on his pants mid-poop. How could he wait until tomorrow morning? After asking the old couple about the location, he ran to the backyard to find the basement by himself.
The backyard is a green lawn surrounded by a low fence, with flowers and plants planted on the edge. At the entrance to the basement, a utility room is located next to the back of the hotel, which is inexplicably out of place.
Mu Su opened the obviously handmade wooden door and stepped inside.
【After you enter the door, the door is closed.】
A whisper rang in my ears.
No warning.
Mu Su was slightly startled, then reached out to touch the doorknob.
[You tried to open it, but failed.]
As soon as his hand touched the cold doorknob, a whisper sounded. Mu Su hesitated and did not turn it.
【There is a lamp next to the door.】
Mu Su looked at the place where the light was emitting. It was an old-fashioned lantern with a kerosene wick burning. It was surprising that such a thing existed in this era.
The voice that should have come from the most surprising place was just ignored by Mu Su.
[You look down the stairs]
Musu followed the whisper and looked down.
[You find this downward staircase strange. Each step from top to bottom is higher than the previous step.]
Mu Su couldn't help but take a few steps and found that it was indeed the case. Each step was a few centimeters higher than the previous one.
The whispers continued.
[You start walking down. I don’t know when. Every time you go down a step, you have to try to see if you can climb up, and then go down the next step. At this time, the step is already higher than a person.]
Musu began to walk down, but he didn't try to go back as the whisper described.
After walking up a dozen steps, each step was already nearly half a meter high.
【You look back at the light from time to time, and it gets farther and farther away.】
Mu Su paused, thought for a moment, then turned back and took down the oil lamp.
The candle swayed, and the shadow cast a large shadow behind him, shaking.
