Chapter 30 – Evil begets evil
December 27th.
Under Chen Yu's tyranny, after several days of "hard study," the title of "Trash Otaku" on the neighbor's head has finally changed successfully.
It has become "Reader Enthusiast."
"To be honest, I find reading and studying quite interesting." The Fat Neighbor pushed his new glasses and said, "It feels more fulfilling than playing games."

[Copy "Combat Superman" ability?]
[Yes/No]

"But in fact, no matter how many books a trash reads or how many practice questions he does, it's just a waste of time." After copying the ability, Chen Yu directly took off the neighbor's glasses and threw them away, saying, "Go back to being a trash otaku."
The Fat Neighbor: "......"
......
December 28th.
The title has been changed back to "Trash Otaku."
Chen Yu kicked open the door, pulled up the Fat Neighbor who was lying on the bed playing with his phone, and threw a stack of books on his face, saying, "Play, play, play! All you know is playing! Do you know you're wasting away? Study! Study hard for me!"
The Fat Neighbor: "......"
......
January 1st.
The title changed to "Study Enthusiast."
[(D- Level) Strong Spirit: Can resist certain hypnosis, suggestion, and mind manipulation effects.]
[Copy "Strong Spirit" ability?]
[Confirm copy.]
Opening the perfect score test paper in his hand, the Fat Neighbor excitedly said to Chen Yu, "When I was in school, I didn't realize that math problems weren't that difficult."
"Tear it up!"
After copying the ability, Chen Yu snatched the test paper and tore it up fiercely, saying, "Math? You, with your pig brain, dare to study math? You can't even calculate the damage data of a character's skill. Don't disgrace math. Go play games! Just wait to die!"
......@@novelbin@@
January 2nd.
At the moment when his title changed back to "Trash Otaku," the Fat Neighbor had a vague premonition. When he turned around, he saw a big foot coming towards him!
"Thud!"
"If you want to play, then play! If I want you dead, you better die!" Chen Yu fiercely threw dozens of foreign literary classics and said, "Translate them all! If you dare to be one word worse than ChatGPT, I'll skin you alive!"
The Fat Neighbor: "......"
......
January 6th.
The Fat Neighbor with the title "Good Student" pushed his glasses and said excitedly, "Brother Yu, do you know that there are many tips and shortcuts for learning English!"
"A Chinese learning fucking English!" After copying another skill, Chen Yu changed his expression instantly and threw the neighbor's glasses into the air again, saying, "I bought you a new PS5. If you break the controller, I'll rip out your prostate."
......
January 7th.
The neighbor's title is still "Good Student."
Chen Yu felt something was strange. After searching for a while, he discovered that the neighbor had hidden a lot of study materials under the bed.
"I told you to study!"
"Thud!"
"I told you to study!"
"Thud!!"
"I told you to study!"
"Thud, thud, thud——"
"Go play games!"
......
January 8th.
The title changed back to "Trash Otaku."
However, Chen Yu couldn't find the neighbor.
It seemed that the fatty had installed hidden cameras in his house. Every time Chen Yu went to find him, he managed to escape.
So, Chen Yu bought a drone overnight, attached a camera to it, and discovered that the neighbor hid in the kitchen cabinet every time through the window on the twelfth floor.
"I told you to hide!"
"Thud!"
"I told you to hide!"
"Thud, thud——"
"So you're playing hide-and-seek?"
"Thud——"
"You're playing hide-and-seek, huh?"
"Thud, thud——"
"You're playing the Thirty-Six Stratagems!"
"Thud, thud, thud, thud——"
......
January 9th. (Interlude)
The neighbor seemed to want to hang himself and was demonstrating to Chen Yu.
But because he was too heavy, the rope that Chen Yu had secretly replaced broke.
......
January 12th.
The title changed back to "Good Student."
As usual, Chen Yu went crazy studying textbooks and gave the neighbor the latest VR game console.
The Fat Neighbor took the VR without much reaction and started playing.
"Why aren't you angry this time?" Chen Yu was surprised.
"I'm used to it." The neighbor's tone was indifferent. "This life is pretty good."
......
January 12th, evening.
The Fat Neighbor knocked on Chen Yu's door and pointed to the title on his head, saying cautiously, "Brother Yu, I've changed back to 'Trash Otaku'."
Chen Yu: "?"
......
January 14th.
"Brother Yu! My title changed again! Hurry up and come!"
Chen Yu: "......"
......
January 15th, early morning.
"The title changed! It changed! Brother Yu, open the door! Open the door!"
"...Let me sleep a little longer."
"Open the door!"
"Thud, thud, thud——"
"Open the door, Brother Yu!"
"Fuck! Let me sleep a little longer!"
"Thud, thud, thud, thud——"
"Open the door, Brother Yu......"
......
Every gift of fate has a price marked in secret.
Chen Yu, who continued to "do evil" without restraint, finally suffered a blow from heaven.
On this day, as usual, he went downstairs to the supermarket to buy something to eat for him and the neighbor. But halfway there, a van came speeding towards him.
It stopped in front of Chen Yu.
Chen Yu: "?"
Before he could react, four or five black-clothed masked men got off the van. One of them had a bag, and the other four had sticks.
They walked towards him menacingly.
Chen Yu: "Which organization are you from?"
"Bang!"
The four sticks struck at the same time! Chen Yu was knocked unconscious on the spot.
Then they put him in a sack, loaded him into the van, and drove away.
"Miscalculated."
"That fat dead guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes actually learned to hire assassins!"
Before losing consciousness, the only thought that flashed through Chen Yu's mind was...
......
"Drip."
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from ".
"Drip."
"Drip——"
The sound of water droplets falling was particularly clear in this empty room.Chen Yu was roused from his dream by the noise, his eyes opening in a daze, only to close immediately.
Because the droplet had landed on his face.
As he opened his eyes, the water flowed into his eyelids, causing a sharp, uncomfortable sting.
"Ugh."
His consciousness instantly cleared, and Chen Yu quickly turned his head to dodge the water droplet. With his hands tied behind his back, he struggled to sit up, realizing that his wrists and ankles were also bound.
"..."
'Right.'
'I've been kidnapped.'
'And beaten with a few sticks.'
"…Cough."
Sorting out his thoughts and memories in his mind, Chen Yu twisted his body, wiped the water off his face with his shoulder, and looked around. There was no one in sight.
It seemed to be an unrenovated basement.
Dark.
Damp.
Stuffy.
Apart from a single incandescent lamp hanging from the ceiling, there was nothing else around.
"..."
"Gulp."
Swallowing hard, Chen Yu's face gradually darkened. Suppressing the fear rising in his heart, he took a deep breath and suddenly shouted, "Is anyone there? Help!"
"Stop shouting, keep it down. There's someone here."
A slightly familiar voice came from behind him.
Chen Yu was startled and quickly turned around, only to find a man standing behind him.
The man was holding half a bottle of mineral water.
Clearly, it was he who had "woken" Chen Yu up with water.
Looking up, his gaze continued to rise.
When Chen Yu saw the man's face clearly, his pupils suddenly dilated: "It's you?!"
...
What do you think?
