How Did I End Up First by a Landslide Again?

As the administrator of a haunted apartment building, Ye Shiwei dreams of being a lazy bum who sleeps until he wakes up naturally and lives off free food and drink.

In reality, he gets woken up every day by all sorts of noise.

Sometimes the tenant upstairs gets an arm ripped off; other times, someone next door gets a leg broken.

He spends the day breaking up fights and settling disputes, then has to watch out at night for lustful ghosts who covet his good looks.

It's safe to say he hardly ever gets a full night's sleep.

Ye Shiwei: I'm so done with this...

One quiet evening, Ye Shiwei finally loses consciousness from sheer exhaustion.

When he wakes, he discovers that he's been dragged into an infinite game.

The walls are peeling, white bones are piled in the corner, a gray face grins at him through the window, and the only clean thing in the middle of the room is... a bed??!

Ye Shiwei's eyes light up. Without a word, he flops onto it. Whatever happens, happens. I'm only interested in the bed.

The countless players in the game scheme against one another and outwit NPCs to protect their hard-won clues.

But when they pass a certain room, they see Ye Shiwei sitting at a table with two ghosts who don't look particularly friendly, holding a deck of cards and inviting the players passing by to join in: "We're one short. Want to play?"

"..."

But in this place, the only way to survive is to fight with everything you've got, then fight even harder.

At first, everyone thinks that a good-for-nothing pretty boy like Ye Shiwei, who cuts corners and takes the easy way out, won't last more than a few days.

That is, until fewer than a hundred players clear the final instance and arrive at the luxurious apartment suite the game has prepared to celebrate their victory.

At the same time, the door opens.

Ye Shiwei peeks out, polite and friendly. "Hello. I'm the administrator here. You can redeem points for a room. There are no subsidies."

The players, already expecting to collect their victory rewards: "???"

In this crisis-ridden game world, Ye Shiwei understands that the nail that sticks out gets hammered down, and those who fall behind get beaten. He just wants to be an average, unremarkable slacker, earning a few points and getting out without a scratch.

But when the first instance ends, he opens the points page and sees his own name in first place, with a score three times higher than the runner-up's!

Ye Shiwei wipes his face wearily and falls into deep thought...

The story is set in a fictional world.
