"I want... to make that person smile again."
Nan Lin first saw that person one autumn evening, on the second day after joining the training camp.
After fighting tooth and nail to survive the first round of that damn infinite survival game, he received an invitation to join the training camp.
After a full day of brutal training, where they worked themselves to the brink of death, Nan Lin finally escaped his instructor's clutches. Dragging his half-dead body along, he went looking for somewhere quiet to rest.
He happened to look up, and saw that person.
The slender man sat on top of the wall, gazing at the sunset on the horizon. His handsome, pale face was expressionless, and his long shadow fell lonely behind him, weighed down by endless solitude.
He was tall, a few years older than Nan Lin, with a lean, angular face. Though his features were gentle and refined, he seemed distant, as if he were wandering alone through this noisy world.
At that moment, Nan Lin felt an inexplicable urge to give him a hug.
But the tall wall put an end to that impulse. He wasn't skilled enough to climb a three-meter wall with his bare hands.
Later, he was incredibly glad he hadn't impulsively gone over to hug the man. Otherwise, the man would probably have taught him a lesson he'd never forget as punishment for sexually harassing an instructor.
That man was the top instructor in the entire training camp, and the most dangerous person currently ranked in the infinite survival world: number S0002, Tan.
Everyone who entered the infinite survival world had a wish they were willing to risk their life to fulfill, whether for themselves or for a family member, friend, or lover. But Nan Lin had never known what he wanted.
Then he found out.
He had come here to find someone.
He would find the beloved he had been forced to forget, then take him home.
