Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god.

Chapter 1000: Retrieving Memory, Fatal Recording

"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."

The sound of the cell phone vibrating continued, and Lu Xiao, who was standing in front of Lin Yu, also heard it.

She looked at Lin Yu and whispered, "Don't worry about these irrelevant things, just turn it off."

When Lin Yu heard Lu Xiao's voice, an idea popped up in his mind.

"Yeah, now is not the time to be looking at your phone..."

However, Lin Yu no longer trusts his own "thinking".

He has realized that his thinking is unreliable.

"This isn't something I would have thought of. There are more and more loopholes," Lin Yu murmured softly, looking at Lu Xiao in front of him, "It seems that this rooftop is not as safe as you think."

"What are you talking about?"

Lu Xiao showed a confused expression.

Lin Yu suddenly broke free from Lu Xiao's hands and took out his cell phone.

No matter whether I am crazy or something "supernatural and extraordinary" is really happening, this "mobile phone" must be the key!

Because Lin Yu remembered that he had subconsciously turned off his phone or picked it up without looking at it several times... It was as if there was some special power in the dark that was deliberately preventing him from looking at his phone.

Lu Xiao watched Lin Yu take out his phone and looked at him with a puzzled expression: "Is this news so important?"

She reached out and tried to snatch Lin Yu's phone, but Lin Yu grabbed her wrist with his backhand.

"Lu Xiao—whatever's wrong with you, calm down and think about it right now. Confessing to me and snatching my phone—does that sound like something you would do?"

Lin Yu's voice suddenly rose, like a wake-up call.

Lu Xiao was stunned for a moment, then he held his head and a look of pain appeared on his face again.

While Lu Xiao was looking painful, Lin Yu quickly looked at the screen of his mobile phone. Before he was about to do this, a very uncomfortable feeling of uneasiness emerged in his heart.

But Lin Yu made a judgment immediately.

"Sure enough, it's intrusive thoughts."

The phone screen lights up.

It wasn't that someone called or sent a message...

Instead, the set alarm rang.

And... usually the alarms set on smartphones now allow you to set a "name" and add a "text note".

At this moment, the name of the alarm on the smartphone is... "Recording".

Moreover, this alarm clock has notes.

“Recording recording recording recording recording recording recording recording recording recording recording…”

The densely packed words "recording" scrolled on the screen, making Lin Yu feel tremendous pressure.

He stopped the alarm, pressed his finger, unlocked the phone with his fingerprint, and then turned on the phone's built-in recording function.

There are three unnamed recordings inside.

Lin Yu opened the top one.

When he saw these recordings, a vague, uneasy feeling emerged in his heart again.

"Om-!"

"Snapped!"

Lin Yu pressed the play button in one go and the recording started.

A voice that seemed to confirm his guess came from the player.

That is……

His own voice.

"It is April 30th now. My name is Lin Yu. I am recording my current state: First of all, I don't know what state I am in now, or why you clicked on this recording, but please listen carefully - I don't have any mental problems now, nor will I have any in the future. All your doubts about your memory are due to supernatural forces beyond your current cognition. I, Lin Yu, am not a high school student here. I come from another world and was sent to this world to perform a mission by a high-dimensional game called "Death Game" created by some high-level existence. This world has great malice towards outsiders and will modify the cognition and memory of those who enter, so you think you are just a... High school student, this isn't real—in order to recover your memories, you must maintain a consistent self-awareness, focus your attention and repeatedly confirm this fact, and stay as awake as possible before the final exam. And if you still can't fully believe what I'm saying and haven't recovered your memories of the game, you can try to decipher this world, because it's inevitably a false one. Try to do something 'abnormal,' like... walking towards the edge of the city, or simply killing someone. This 'world' is shaped based on my cognition, but it's not rigorous, so there will be strong, unignorable 'counterintuitive' phenomena, which will serve as an anchor for us to recover our memories."

When Lin Yu heard this, he felt his mind was in a mess.

Death Game? Player? Am I from another world?

But he vaguely felt that this was reasonable - as if this was what his true self should be like.

And this is indeed my own voice.

What Lin Yu cares about most is... time.

The recording was dated April 30th, and it's already June - in other words, if he was a time traveler, he'd already been here for a month.

This phenomenon of staying for a month is really rare... Wait, why do I think it's rare?

Lin Yu felt that although he had just heard of the term "Death Game", some related knowledge immediately emerged in his mind. Although he seemed unable to remember it, if he started from a specific "point", he would be able to turn out some knowledge hidden deep in his soul.

For example... "time"!

It seems to be a rare thing to stay in a world that does not belong to you for more than a month.

After hearing this voice, Lu Xiao finally recovered from the pain.

"Ah, aha," she gasped sharply, massaging her temples and looking up. "Everything in this recording is true—I was dazed by the sunlight just now, so my cognition and thinking were immediately disrupted! I almost called you to the rooftop because I had a crush on you and wanted you to confess!"

"Damn it! These guys are watching us and fixing the 'bugs' bit by bit. Since the rooftop is where we often go, they simply adjusted the sun, raising the temperature and light levels significantly, making it easier for us to lose consciousness on the rooftop from dazzle or heatstroke." Lu Xiao raised his head. "Lin Yu, your phone is also key. It...it can transmit information across cognitive barriers. The persistence of these recordings means it can't be corrected."

"This is our chance to get out... I have many memory anchors on this rooftop, and I've recalled them all." Lu Xiao's eyes became increasingly clear. "I'm a player, and you're also a player—but I've been trapped here longer than you, and you asked me to tell you that you came here on your own initiative, with the goal of finding your friend and taking him away."
