Chapter 24: Chapter 024 It’s another scammer (Part 3)

The term "Wocao" flooded He Tiantian’s mind, but she still playfully pouted at Student Xiao D, trying to get some benefits from him.

Xiao D, a small ball of light about the size of a fist, was tormented by He Tiantian—flashing red one moment and green the next, looking like it was about to crash, yet it stubbornly kept its mouth shut.

Seeing this, He Tiantian realized that Student Xiao D really couldn’t help.

If that’s the case—

He Tiantian quickly wiped the smile off her face. If there was no benefit, then it wasn’t worth the effort.

Student Xiao D: ...

He Tiantian, don’t you think flipping faces like flipping books is a bit much?

"Student Xiao D, what’s my task this time? Is it the same as the last one, to continue changing the villain’s fate and build the entire world in the book to completion?"

He Tiantian appeared indifferent to Student Xiao D, who was puffing up in annoyance, businesslike and earnest.

Student Xiao D took a deep breath and after a long while regained his usual mechanical tone, "Yes, the world in this book is the same as the previous one; it has become incomplete because the author entered the palace, so you must continue writing the story to make it complete!"

"Okay, got it!"

He Tiantian acknowledged and then extracted Divine Soul from the Space bookshelf.

Clang, clang!

The green train’s wheels rhythmically clattered on the tracks.

Unlike the previous book world, this time He Tiantian entered halfway through. Though this body was still "He Tiantian," she still needed some time to adapt.

He Tiantian had already read the plot in the Space bookshelf and now needed to fully integrate Divine Soul with this body.

"...The timing of my arrival is really—" speechless.

He Tiantian fully assimilated the original host’s memories and also understood the current time point she was in.

Yes, the recently resumed college entrance exam had ended, and Zhou Ziyu had been admitted to university in Capital City with excellent scores.

"He Tiantian," however, performed abysmally and didn’t even qualify for a standard college.

He Tiantian had already discovered her own background by then and had secretly contacted her real mother, Seo Xiulan.

From Seo Xiulan, she learned that Zhou Zixuan had good academic performance and had been reviewing with the local Educated Youth before the entrance exams.

During the exams, she performed very well, and after calculating her scores, Capital University and Shuimu were a bit out of reach, but other universities in Capital City were still possible.

Sure enough, an admission letter from Capital City Teacher’s College arrived in He Family Village.

At He Tiantian’s instruction, Seo Xiulan intercepted Zhou Zixuan’s admission notice and secretly sent it to Provincial City, handing it to He Tiantian.

He Tiantian’s foster parents, due to work, were not in Provincial City. He Tiantian informed them via phone that she had been admitted to university.

Her foster parents quickly arranged for someone to send a large sum of money and bills. He Tiantian took the money and bills, packed her bags, and with Zhou Zixuan’s admission notice, boarded the train to Capital City.

Now, the train He Tiantian was on had already left the boundaries of Provincial City and was heading north.

Inside the pocket sewn into the lining of He Tiantian’s quilted jacket was the university admission letter belonging to Zhou Zixuan.

After boarding, when chatting casually with those around her, "He Tiantian" shamelessly boasted to the passengers, "I’m going to university in Capital City!"

He Tiantian held her forehead: ...

The identity theft was already more than halfway done, just missing the final step.

This timing of her arrival was really—

What troubled He Tiantian more was that three days ago, Zhou Zixuan had come through.

She clearly knew the plot yet didn’t stop it, contently watching on the side as "He Tiantian" boarded the train with her admission notice.

He Tiantian understood that Zhou Zixuan was trying to create a fait accompli and then catch the original host red-handed.

And in those days, identity theft was no small matter—it might not lead to imprisonment, but it would certainly be recorded in a file.

Once there was a blemish on the file, trying to apply to university again or to enter a formal profession would be extremely difficult.

Of course, you can’t blame Zhou Zixuan for that, who allowed the original protagonist to make mistakes earlier?

If He Tiantian hadn’t become this "He Tiantian," she would have also told Zhou Zixuan, "Well done!"

But—

Taking a deep breath, He Tiantian lifted her head and took a careful look at the scenery outside the train window.

She had to be thankful that the train’s speed was genuinely slow these days.

Although it had been over half the day, the train had only left the Provincial City and arrived at a neighboring city.

"Excuse me, Comrade Attendant, does the train stop at the next station?"

He Tiantian stood up, stopped the train attendant, and asked politely.

"Yes! The stop will last about ten minutes. If you have something to do, you need to get off and back on quickly, otherwise, once the train leaves on time, you can only wait for the next one!"

The attendant, seeing that He Tiantian was clean and pretty, and spoke courteously and gently, felt some fondness for her.

Exceptionally warm and thoughtful in his response, he also didn’t forget to remind He Tiantian to watch the time.

"Ah, okay, thank you, Comrade Attendant!"

It must be said, the impact of the previous book world on He Tiantian was really big.

Not to mention anything else, just this little mouth of hers, the words she spoke were sweet.

"Hehe, little girl, are you going to the Capital City to find relatives or—attend school?"

The attendant, a man in his thirties, grew even fonder of this sweet-talking young girl and casually asked a few more questions.

He Tiantian: ...

Can I not answer this question?

Because telling the truth would get me beaten, and as for lying, He Tiantian was very sure she wasn’t a liar.

Since she wasn’t a liar, she shouldn’t lie.

She smiled shyly, lowered her head as if embarrassed, and didn’t say anything, but this gave the attendant plenty of room to imagine.

’Yo, is this girl going back to the city to visit relatives or to meet someone for marriage?’

The attendant thought to himself but didn’t continue to pry.

He talked more just because he found the girl well-behaved and sweet-talking, which he liked.

It wasn’t out of real curiosity.

Since the girl was too shy to speak, the attendant didn’t ask further.

However, the attendant did remember He Tiantian and made a special trip to their carriage to remind her when the train stopped at the station.

"Thank you so much!"

With her bedding roll on her back, carrying a large bundle, and a military green canvas bag slung across her shoulder, He Tiantian squeezed through the crowd, thanked the attendant several times, and then got off the train.

Ten minutes later, the train embarked again.

After finishing his duties, the attendant passed by this carriage and didn’t see He Tiantian, thinking to himself: "Oh no, I hope that young girl didn’t miss her train."

The attendant felt a bit of regret but just sighed briefly. After all, they were strangers who had met fleetingly. As someone who worked on the train year-round, he had seen countless passengers who missed their stops or boarded the wrong train.

Some of them were so panicked they cried, looking pitiful.

It was impossible for the attendant to sympathize with each and every one of them.

"Achoo, achoo!"

He Tiantian sneezed a few times in succession and, after much difficulty, squeezed her way out of the exit and into the ticket counter.

Taking out a letter of introduction from the seam pocket of her cotton jacket, she bought another train ticket back to the Provincial City and finally breathed a little easier...
