The Most Random System

"I understand the situation now, Grandma Zhang. Here's the thing, I haven't been going to the park to exercise these days, just been sleeping in at home. As for my mom's phone number, she changed it a year ago but didn't update it with the property management, so you couldn't reach us.

How about this, Grandma, maybe you can take down my number, so you can contact me in case there's anything in the future."

Lin Li explained to Zhang Fang after figuring it out.

As for exercising at home, mentioning these little details might lead to questions, so just saying I slept in is simpler.

"I guessed it might be like that. The security in our neighborhood... although we don't really have property management maintaining security, most of the folks here are good people. How could accidents happen so easily?

Old Zhou, he's probably just a bit too anxious, caring too much and kind of panicking due to worry, don't blame him for causing you trouble." Zhang Fang nodded and patted Lin Li's hand.

"How could I blame him, Grandma Zhang? Of course, I know little... Grandpa Zhou means well for me. I'll go down and talk to him tomorrow."

"Good, good, you two truly have an intergenerational friendship, little Grandpa Zhou, sounds endearing."

After exchanging numbers and making some polite conversation, Zhang Fang said goodbye and left.

Lin Li then started to take a shower while reviewing the English words he noted down during evening study today.

The memory was still clear, not forgotten at all.

[Strong Memory] effect is really significant.

Although I've used it only once, just for twenty minutes, in those twenty minutes, Lin Li managed to memorize all the words starting with 'a', estimating at least two to three hundred.

Accumulating one hour of super strong memory every day, learning becomes a piece of cake?

——Math and Physics excluded.

…

The next day.

Lin Li 'long-awaited' return to the community park, Xiaozhou was waiting there for a long time.

"Grandpa Zhou, it's been days since we last saw each other, did you miss me?" Lin Li greeted with a smile.

"Miss you? I wish you would leave our neighborhood and we'd never see you again!" Zhou Youwei immediately said, glaring.

After that, he seemed a bit happy and proud.

Fortunately, he reminded everyone in time, although he didn't know what Lin Li's scheme was, it should have been successfully thwarted.

True to my name, Zhou Youwei, the silent guardian of the neighborhood.

Lin Li kept a benevolent smile at those words.

A typical proud Old Deng, a sharp tongue and a soft heart.

Obviously cares a lot but pretends not to show any concern.

Sigh, pridefulness is outdated, luckily Grandma Zhang pointed out Xiaozhou's intentions to me.

"In any case, thank you for your concern. If I don't go down to exercise for a long time, I'll inform you in advance. I'm not prone to accidents, so don't worry too much," Lin Li sincerely said to Zhou Youwei.

"Huh? Who's concerned about you? I can't even hate you enough, I dislike you!" Zhou Youwei said, stunned.

"Alright, alright, Grandpa Zhou, you don't care about me, you dislike me the most, I understand, I understand~~ I'm really sorry for being disliked by you~" Lin Li nodded with a friendly smile, even winking.

Old folks are sensitive, no need to expose them, as long as I know what they really mean.

Zhou Youwei's head was full of question marks.

What the heck is this kid doing here? Are you teasing Old Deng like this?

No... this is sarcasm! It's passive-aggressive!

This is too much. In this round, shouldn't I have won? What right does Lin Li have to mock me?

Zhou Youwei unhappily stared at Lin Li.

Feeling the gaze from behind, understanding the care within, Lin Li felt even more touched.

…

Last class of the morning.

Lin Li focused intensely on staring at the Physics teacher's PPT, trying to understand.

Bai Bufan wasn't beside him, he was standing in the back listening.

As for the reason.

Physics teacher: "The basic action direction between electric charges is like charges repel and opposite charges attract."

Bai Bufan: "Teacher, why do you assume the orientations of electric charges? Is it possible for an electric charge to have a positive physiological gender but a negative psychological gender?"

The Physics teacher endured.

After all, LGBT is politically correct, and he's afraid of being reported by Bai Bufan to the Los Angeles First People's Court.

Physics teacher: "In winter, when wearing or taking off a sweater, you might see static electricity and electric sparks, but why doesn't it occur in summer? Does anyone know?"

Bai Bufan: "Duh, wearing a sweater in summer, isn't that a pure idiot move?"

The Physics teacher couldn't take it anymore, sending Bai Bufan to the back.

Lin Li could only say Bai Bufan deserved it.

[Task Three Completed.]

[You have received a reward: Physical Improvement: Comprehension increase 10%; Memory increase 100%; Random Cultivation Technique*1.]

When Lin Li saw this message pop up, he excitedly rubbed his eyes, shifted his gaze back to his textbook, pretending to study but actually taking a break.

Finally, he could afford not to pay attention to the lecture for a while.

Honestly speaking, Physics is more troublesome than Mathematics.

At least Xue Jian still has hair, but Luo Hao, the Physics teacher of Class Four, is already a shiny bald egg.

After this message appeared, the clarity he once anticipated in his mind, he finally felt it momentarily.

Is this the feeling brought by comprehension?

The difference is evident compared to the memory improvement that seems to have come in without any effect.

In only a few seconds, the change stirs wonder.

I've become smarter, then this Physics problem, let me look again!

Lin Li raised his head in anticipation, but after a minute, when the teacher had moved on to the next page of the PPT while Lin Li was still pondering the previous one, his smile dried up and he lowered his head again.

Darn it, 10% comprehension isn't nearly enough.

You electric charges have so many issues, born with charges but nothing takes care of them. Wait till Brother Wu Jing arrives, all of you electric charges will meet your end!

Lin Li quietly raged against the electric charges in his heart.

[Learning leads to progress, striving for the grand path, the sect once considered you merely ordinary, but diligence can change fate, yesterday's seeds, today you reap the fruits, as the sect competition approaches, why not show your prowess, and become a sensation? Lin Li's name, should resound through the heavens!]

[Task Triggered!]

[Task Three: Achieve significant progress in the Nansang Sect Competition, ranking within the top hundred among peers, and enter the sect's genius list.]

[Reward: Physical Improvement: Comprehension increase 20%; Divine Sense improvement 100%; Random Artifact*1.]

Like before, the completion of the old task accompanied the triggering of a new task, but this time it's no longer about listening to the lecture intently.

Sect competition... it's like a monthly or mid-term exam kind of big test, isn't it?

This means the task requires you to rank within the top hundred in the entire school in the next big exam.

As for the so-called sect genius list, it's the honor list, the kind with a photo and motto.

Lin Li has always wanted to show off there, but hasn't had the chance.

Every time seeing those top students waste these spots, he felt it's a pity.

The honor list isn't just for the top hundred in the grade, that would be too many, only the top ten in the grade typically have a stable qualification, but if Lin Li reaches the top hundred, he doesn't even need to be in the top hundred to get on -- in the Star of Progress section.

"I really want to improve."
