Chapter 14 Hope You Can Make Use of It_1
A boy with a wooden expression opened the door.
His name was Luo Yuan,
and Wang Ran remembered him,
he was a quiet and studious good student who neither played games nor smoked, drank, or went clubbing, and he always ranked among the top on every exam.
Luo Yuan asked in confusion, "What's up?"
Wang Ran said with a grin, "I'm here to bring warmth!"
As he spoke,
he took out a box of condoms from a plastic bag.
Jissbon
"Here you go, bro. Hope you find it useful."
Wang Ran stuffed the condoms into Luo Yuan's hands.
Luo Yuan took a look and his brain crashed on the spot, his face showing an undeniable expression of shock.
WTF?!
Wang Ran followed up, "Got a girlfriend yet?"
"No," Luo Yuan replied with a flushed face, "why are you giving me this?"
"Lost a game of Truth or Dare," Wang Ran shrugged, "keep it, hopefully, you'll have a day to use it."
His blessings were genuine,
if Luo Yuan ever used the condoms he gifted,
it would mean he had prevented Doomsday from descending.
Wang Ran squeezed past Luo Yuan to enter the dormitory, cheerfully handing a box of condoms to every person in the room.
"Holy shit! Are these things also presented as gifts?"
The whole dormitory suddenly livened up.
"You're the man, Brother Wang!"
"Haha! Just in time, my girlfriend is coming this weekend!"
"Let her thank Neighbor Wang!"
"Get lost!"
"You dare to curse at me! I'm not bringing you supper anymore!"
"No, please! My dear daddy!"
"..."
Wang Ran hung out with everyone in the dormitory, laughing and joking for a few minutes, making sure he remembered each person's voice before warmly departing for the next dormitory.
Wang Ran pushed open the ajar door, smiling as he walked in, "I've brought a little gift for everyone, hope all the bros can make use of it!"
"What gift?"
"Holy crap!"
"Who sends this kind of gift?"
"Pretty practical though!"
"I'm dying, I hereby declare, from today on, Wang Ran is our class' top dog!"
"The one wearing headphones and gaming, always just knowing how to Rush B in the game, frickin' loser, no wonder you're forever alone!"
"Me, a loser? Log in, see if I don't crush you!"
"..."
Similar scenes replayed in one dormitory after another.
Initially awkward,
but as those who loved a good buzz followed Wang Ran to other dorms to mingle,
it got more and more festive.
Wang Ran even earned his own exclusive BGM.
He's here!
He's here!
He's brought gifts and he's here!
He's here!
He's here!
He's come with auspicious clouds underfoot!
Big Brother Heaven!
Big Brother Earth!
Big Brother is powerful enough to hold up the sky!
...
This BGM, which I'm not sure when became viral across the net, was so tacky it crumbled, but it really got the atmosphere going!
Wipe out the awkwardness, be a joker!
Whenever Wang Ran entered a new dorm, the classmates trailing him would play the background music on their phones, enveloping everyone in a festive mood.
From time to time, someone would make monkey-like whoops.
"Oh! Oh! Oh!"
When the night deepened and the building turned chillingly silent, the loud shouts of high-spirited monkeys often rang out, inducing laughter and echoing through the building, bringing joy that had long been absent.
The development of events was unexpectedly smooth.
Everyone was talkative.
If someone received a gift and stayed quiet, you didn't need Wang Ran to speak up, the other classmates would tease them with beaming faces.
"Not talking, is it not enough for you?"
"Enough?"
"You actually have a girlfriend!"
"Let's ostracize him!"
"..."
Amidst the bursts of laughter, Wang Ran quickly became acquainted with the voices of all his classmates.
Among them, a few classmates appeared to be deep thinkers,
and he silently took note of them.
Then he arrived at the last dormitory.
This dormitory was located at the end of the corridor, inhabited by just one student. His name was Bai Fan, rumored to be a relative of the school leadership and wasn't one to mingle much with other students.
Thump, thump, thump!
Wang Ran knocked on the door as the student by his side, from the atmosphere group, shouted loudly, "Open up, the Wang bro himself is delivering a full wellness package plus a sauna!"
A somewhat effeminate voice came from inside the door.
"I'm busy, don't bother me!"
Bai Fan was clearly not in a good mood tonight, speaking harshly without a care for the feelings of Wang Ran and the others.
The classmates beside Wang Ran all paused for a moment.
"What busy?" Wang Ran said in a calm and nonchalant manner, "We're all classmates here; if you share, we can help each other out!"
Bai Fan rudely replied, "My business is none of your concern, and there's nothing you can do about it. Just don't bother me, and keep it down, keep away from my dorm!"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Wang Ran's eyes flickered.
Doesn't want to see anyone?
That might be fine under normal circumstances, but now was an exceptional time.
"Forget it, Wang bro!" a classmate intervened as the peacemaker, "Let's go. We're done with what we came for, and everyone had a good time. You keep the rest for yourself."
Wang Ran showed a friendly smile, "Joy shared is joy doubled."
He placed his hand on the door.
[Temporal-Spatial Exchange·Er]activated!
In a fraction of a second,
an unprecedentedly powerful feeling engulfed Wang Ran's body,
every cell within him quivering and screaming!
The world turned utterly different,
and suddenly Wang Ran could clearly see each speck of dust clinging to the wooden door and could sharply hear the stray cat licking its paws downstairs, the wind mixed with the scent of cumin lifting a wet plastic bag.
Wang Ran looked at the wooden door before him,
feeling as though
he only needed to push gently and then...
Crack! Snap!
With a grating sound of breaking, to the disbelief of the onlookers, Wang Ran actually walked into Bai Fan's dormitory, holding the door!
What's "going in through the door"!
For a moment, everyone was too shocked to speak!
Wang Ran quickly glanced around the dormitory, his heart dropping to freezing point upon seeing the mountainous pile of various supplies.
Spring Water, chocolate, self-heating food...
All the things he had lost were here!
No wonder he didn't want to see anyone; it was because there were too many things in the dormitory, too many to explain.
At that moment,
a multitude of thoughts clogged Wang Ran's mind.
His loss had something to do with Bai Fan, but how did Bai Fan move everything into this dormitory without anyone noticing?
Was Bai Fan the Doomsday Apostle he was looking for?
Should he confront him now?
At that moment, Bai Fan shrieked, "My door!"
Bai Fan was about the same height as Wang Ran, with a slim figure, and when angered he had the air of a ruffled hen.
Wang Ran's eyes flickered.
If he were to act now, killing Bai Fan would definitely be no problem, but it would be difficult to coax information about the Doomsday Apostle out of him, and things would get very troublesome afterward...
Perhaps it was better to hold off.
Wang Ran dismissed the distracting thoughts and said with an apologetic tone, "I'm sorry, I just pushed it lightly; I had no idea the door was so flimsy."
The atmosphere group pushed past Wang Ran into the dormitory.
"Holy shit! Wang bro, you're too badass!"
"Big brother's dominance!"
"Move aside! Let me take a photo to post in the group chat!"
"Wang bro tore the door down!"
"So much food! Is this a dorm or a storehouse?"
"What storehouse? This is clearly paradise!"
"..."
The powerful feeling receded like a tide, and Wang Ran knew he had reverted to an ordinary person. If Bai Fan detected anything unusual now, his predicament would become extremely dangerous.
"What on earth do you want?"
Bai Fan looked displeased.
With a roguish grin, Wang Ran pulled out a dozen boxes of condoms of various brands from a plastic bag, and before Bai Fan could react, he stuffed them all into his hands.
"I hope you'll find a use for them!"
