   Does Xun Bao really have a system? Is Xun Bao truly a normal person, or is he suffering from schizophrenia and depression? Is he really just an actor? Everyone says Xun Bao's persona is a fabricated one, but is it really just a persona? Xun Bao redeemed others, but who will redeem him? Everyone says Xun Bao is acting, but what if he acts his whole life? Is it still just a persona? I also want to be a part of the Vanilla, but… it seems unrealistic! I'm glad I'm rational enough, even if it means my life is a little less colorful! I think I should be a normal person, though I don't know if I'm pretending or if I'm genuinely normal. I don't dare relax; when I relax, I think too much. Either I don't think and am in a daze, or I exhaust myself so I don't think anymore. It alternates like this, but after so many days, one day I'll start overthinking. Even on one day out of so many days, I might have random thoughts, but I feel like there's a thread pulling me, though I don't know what it is, and it's really uncomfortable. Honestly, my heart suddenly clenched at that moment. Trying to sleep felt okay! I don't know what I want. I'm 22 and doing well, but I'm all alone. I'm not used to other people's feelings for me. Is it normal to not contact my family for over a year? I don't know. I deleted all my friends when I left home, but I feel very relaxed being alone! Every now and then I add someone online to chat with, but then I don't want to interact with people anymore! I feel like my emotions are so weak. I've discovered my desires are so low, I basically have no sex drive, not in terms of family, friendship, or love. Only after leaving did I realize that I didn't feel any sense of belonging to my family. Deleting my friends makes me feel even more relaxed. Before, I lived a repressed life every day. Perhaps my sympathy is because my emotions fluctuate a lot. It's not that I have no emotions, it's just that I really don't feel any resonance. I don't know what to do, and I don't want to interact with anyone! Is fantasizing about being loved by a yandere a kind of illness? I don't know. I've never experienced it. I just feel that the experience of a yandere's love is deeper, and they won't leave me. I don't want anything long-lasting. I just want to be loved for a few months or a year. More or less doesn't matter. I feel like a robot every day, but I'm probably not a robot! I didn't like reading novels before, probably a few years ago. I felt that novels were reality, and my life was a virtual world because it was too tiring and unreal! I've always felt that my life is different from others, separated by a mirror, a one-way mirror. I can see other people's worlds, but the people in the other mirror can't see me. Maybe I'm talking nonsense, otherwise, how could I still be alive! I've rambled on a bit, though I don't know how many words I've said! Let's talk about this book. Is it mindless? I don't think so, it's so realistic! The plot and events are full of real-life examples; if they're true, I hope they're not. The first ten chapters felt quite frustrating, but after reading a few dozen chapters, I realized that reading this book was different from other light novels. I don't know if this counts as a light novel, but it has a special feel to it. It's a matter of personal taste, but I think the whole book is more than five stars!
