Xu Mu was a hardcore otaku, who one night died suddenly from playing games late into the night, only to open his eyes and find himself alive again.

A noisy black ball surrounded him, claiming he had entered into some novel as a cannon fodder extra.
Xu Mu firmly believed he was experiencing hallucinations, waving his hand to dismiss the black ball.
With a "sizzle," after a few seconds, the black ball disappeared.
Sure enough, it was just a hallucination, and he went back to sleep satisfied.

Once, while out, Xu Mu encountered an injured rabbit on the road.
He intended to bandage the rabbit's wound, but the rabbit kept struggling, refusing to cooperate.
"Be good, I'll take you back to bandage your wound."
The rabbit stopped struggling.
Xu Mu: How fierce, but quite spiritual.
After bandaging the rabbit's wound, it ran off without looking back.
Xu Mu felt regretful, his wish of raising a rabbit shattered.
His life as a shut-in continued, until one day, the doorbell rang.
A fair and gentle man stood at the door, offering cookies and speaking softly, "Hello, I'm your new neighbor who recently moved in..."
Xu Mu didn't catch the rest of the words, his attention entirely on the box of cookies.
So hungry.
The man smiled gently, "Go ahead, eat."
Xu Mu wolfed down the cookies, only realizing he behaved inappropriately afterward. He looked at his neighbor sheepishly.
The man didn't say anything, his gaze still soft and accepting.
Later, Xu Mu discovered that his neighbor, who frequently visited, was an excellent cook. He often received delicious food, juices, and occasionally, dinner invitations.
From initially feeling anxious and guilty, Xu Mu gradually felt at ease, all within a few short months.
Xu Mu pondered that it wasn't right to keep eating without giving back, so he handed his bank card to his neighbor.
The man slowly widened his eyes, "What... do you mean?" His face started to flush slightly, a hint of crimson on his skin.
Xu Mu focused on his game, hastily handing over the card, "Take it."
—My food expenses are all covered in there, thank you for your hard work.
Recently, the man's frequency of sending delicious food had increased, and he even accompanied Xu Mu to play games every day, sometimes even helping him tidy up the house.
Xu Mu felt that something was amiss, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
