Get the perfect music system at the start

However, they quickly disappeared again, clearly suppressed by someone with ulterior motives.

Just as Xu Fan was about to arrive at the agency, he suddenly received a phone call.

On the other end of the phone, a disdainful voice asked coldly, "What, a drowning fly still wants to fly?"

===Chapter 1054 Another New Day===

For Xu Fan, everything in this world seemed different every day. Every day, something special would appear in his life, and some special people would leave. He never thought about whether these things were real or fake, nor did he ever think about whether he would encounter another different world. Sometimes he wondered if he hadn't done enough, which led to the later results. He never really cared about the future outcome of this movie or the TV series he was going to film. Or rather, in his view, these questions were completely unnecessary to consider, because good results never come late. At least based on what he knew so far, he only needed to quietly go through the process, simply describe the future, and believe that everything in this world would revolve around him. That was it.

Xu Fan's understanding of life's continuation is that he believes the world has little to do with him, yet he also believes it has a significant connection. This connection may be neither deep nor shallow, neither close nor distant, but he is certain that everything he does could potentially change something in a certain part of the world, which could then affect a larger part or event, potentially impacting the entirety of time. Thus, Xu Fan might suddenly realize that he is the most important person in the world. Only then will he discover that he has been chosen by the chosen one, becoming a true chosen one with a system, using things that no one else in the world possesses, and even having the opportunity to rest upon becoming one. At this moment, he understands that what he imagines is completely different from what he has seen before. He even wonders if his deceased friends might suddenly reappear.

Or perhaps those who are preparing to leave or might leave will suddenly appear beside her and say "long time no see." Sometimes Xu Fan wonders if she's being too harsh, which is why different stories happen in this world. Like just now, when she brushed past the person who nearly died in the underground parking garage—if she had looked at it from that point on, wouldn't that car accident have been avoided? She also wonders if all the events in this world are arranged for her, because many people in this world seem to have inexplicable connections to her. Even though she doesn't know them at all, they seem to know her very well, but she really doesn't understand them. She even wonders if she's made some mistakes in her own mind, especially after obtaining the system, as some of the events seem to have become different secrets.

Or rather, we can't just call her "sister" at all, because everyone in this world knows what kind of underlying structure and substance lies behind this matter. Whether it's good or bad, the final outcome is perfect. No matter how faint the video is, the final world is the simplest. What we imagine will never be similar to you. When we meet again, what we encounter or imagine more is how we can meet again if there is a next time, how we can reunite in another world.

No one really thinks too much seriously, at least not for the West. Especially when he seriously considers that everything about this matter has nothing to do with him, he suddenly realizes that this world is really difficult. No matter what has happened, what has already happened, or what hasn't happened, there are not many reasons for him. He just needs to do his best and complete the things he needs to do every day. Many people think this is what is called a mechanical life. Maybe for Xu Fan, this is the kind of life he deserves or should have. He can't change too many things, just like he can't create a song that truly belongs to him. He has experienced so much, thought so much, and all sorts of thoughts are deep in his mind. The final result is this reason. Because no one knows what the final result will be to make him better. In life, we often know different stories, and the final story is also like this.

Perhaps we won't be able to take a walk alone like this, but the so-called protagonist in this story is actually someone we often struggle with. We can never truly stand in front of others, and in reality, many things are never given to others to consider. We often think about things only because others have given us the opportunity and time to think. Whether we seize such an opportunity or not, whether we let it go or not, the final outcome never changes. It's like someone wanting to buy a house. The person who wants to buy a house will eventually sell it, and the person who wants to sell a house will eventually sell it. Whether the buyer and seller complete the transaction or not, the final result is the same. The person who was supposed to buy a house has bought one, and the person who was supposed to sell a house has sold one. It's just that because of certain things, certain problems, or certain places, we clearly understand that there is no way to truly meet, or rather, there is no way to truly meet.

There was no way around it; it was a true brush past each other. Stories often go like this. Everything seemed to be happening, but it was all very different. Fate was telling us the answer, and maybe it was just me. Now, he wanted to solve some problems, and it seemed the only way was to find him. Actually, before, he had thought about going to find Chen Yuanyuan because Chen Yuanyuan had been searching for that answer. Maybe he had found it now. But at this moment, he suddenly realized that he might have been wrong. He had no intention of seeing Chen Yuanyuan again because Chen Yuanyuan didn't want to pay attention to him, couldn't keep up, and didn't want to see him at all. Under these circumstances, there was no need for him to go through with the so-called meeting with Cheng Yuanjin. So, the academic genius had it easy, while the wounded person lived their whole life. Perhaps the person who understood the most important person in this world was the one he liked. He thought of a certain night, with Han Zilu.

Or to be more precise, it was a special conversation between Xu Fan and An Lanyue in a certain place. One night, they encountered five people, each with their own strength. They weren't ordinary people; they had special reasons for living in this world. They clearly understood that they were unique in this world, yet not unique at the same time. They were just ordinary people in this world, except that they possessed a system, unlike many others. These two aspects were completely incomparable. From another perspective, Xu Fan was once just an ordinary person, but now he was a cultivator. He should have been unique, but later he discovered that there were actually many cultivators in this world. For example, those people who had always been around him, those he couldn't doubt or think about, were all true cultivators in this world. He even wondered if An Lanyue's father, An Kun, and his own father had ever been...

Having once been one of the most outstanding people in the world, Xu Fan couldn't think too much. He could only use this award as a way of thinking to consider this matter. He couldn't refuse or accept any kind of story, so he could only think about these things through the most important thoughts deep in his own mind.

Xu Fan knew that although he had rescued the injured person, they wouldn't die, but they still couldn't get the rights they deserved, or rather, they couldn't get the rights they deserved quickly. This was because the situation was too unrealistic. Many times, he thought about himself, perhaps feeling uncomfortable and wanting to escape. He thought that only by leaving this world could he find more opportunities. But then he thought about himself again, perhaps he was just an ordinary person. How could an ordinary person leave their own world? How could many people do those so-called outrageous things? Many people might feel anger, or they might feel emotional excitement, but ultimately, he was just an ordinary person. There were no other accounts, only exchanges with Thailand. In the following time, many stories happened, stories that were different from others. They were never simple. So everything in this world seemed to be changing differently. It's not that the movies in that world seemed completely different from the movies in this world, but they also seemed completely the same, whether it was the plot, the actors, or even the scenes depicted.

Everything has never truly been separated; it has always been a competition of mutual benefit. Sometimes I think that if I had the chance to resolve this matter, if I had the opportunity to handle a particular issue in the future, I would definitely think about it seriously. Many times, I've also thought that if possible, I should do something special, such as completing a task, or perhaps I should quietly and silently contemplate something special, throw away the things at the door, sweep everything in the world clean, and maybe in the next second I will meet the funds of another world again.

Xu Wen had considered the concept of parallel worlds deep in his mind, but ultimately, such things were far too limited and absurd. If his love was due to the system, he would never believe that a parallel world would affect him. This world was one where he could transform into a system, possessing bugs that no one else in this world had—things that no one else dared to possess. I used a certain consciousness of this thing to say that it could control many, many things. Of course, for Xu Fan, he never wanted to one day have such power to solve certain problems and obtain certain results.

Many people cry when listening to love songs, something I haven't personally experienced. Xu Fan admits that love songs can be very moving, but perhaps because she's been through a lot, she's never had that experience. However, this doesn't mean that everyone's story is different; it just means that everyone's experiences are different.

.

Everyone has their own time, and everyone has their own story. No matter what we are like in the beginning, or what we do later, we meet everyone in another world again and then disappear again. In fact, most of the time we never achieve things overnight. So we start by communicating with the most complex things in the simplest way. Only in this way can we handle or obtain a complete clan and a complete time.

What happened next was incomprehensible and impossible to seriously consider. This was indeed the case for Xu Fan. He knew very well that the purpose of all this was simply to sell the product faster, more effectively, and better. Therefore, the relationship between Xu Fan and the photo was never about seriously considering seating arrangements or data. Because often, what we need to do is not just take something from one place, have it judged by another person, and then return it to another person for a special transaction after gaining so-called approval. No one can truly understand how lonely this world truly is. Perhaps only one can understand when everyone in the world has their own things to do, while one can only stand there quietly, at a loss. This is perhaps the true meaning of life, because no one can truly replace sadness, and no one can truly understand it.

Stories are never monotonous; behind each story lies a profound truth conveyed by a child's voice. The hope is that everything in this world can be understood simply. He hopes that love and hate can become a unique emotion. Therefore, he always thinks deeply. If given the opportunity, he would definitely create a song that relates to this world and this moment, because only such a song can allow him to return to his roots, reflecting on everything in this world, on music, and on many important aspects of life. In fact, many times, beautiful things never leave us. What he hopes for is that the good and bad of this world can become something special, the same thing that Xu Fan envisions.

When Xu Fan seriously considered the world, he realized, or rather, understood, that there are many things in life that he could seriously think about, and that everything in this world could make us more pure.

===Chapter 1055 Perfect World===

The sun shone brightly the next day. Xu Fan was oblivious to all the rumors circulating about him. For him, nothing in this world mattered anymore. He needed to spend his time doing other things, such as resting, searching for the next world node, or, more importantly, seriously considering how to proceed with his life.

He understood perfectly well that the next time you leave this world, it would feel like yesterday. Occasionally, he would still think about it, even though he knew perfectly well that the girl he liked, Han Keshi, was like someone who would haunt his life. It was hard to truly understand, hard to think about, that he was a very important person in his life, as if he had disappeared and was gone forever, as if he had left this world and could no longer be touched. At times like this, he needed to think about how to face the next period of time. For him, there was no other way to resolve these so-called moments, especially now. He often used certain things to disturb them, or rather, for Xu Fan, all of this was ultimately to make himself braver.

Because those things that have died, those that have passed, those that have been lost, may become simpler or more persistent at some point. There is no future, no thought. In fact, the most important thing in our lives is never the so-called "good" or "everything at home." Everyone has something very important in their life, whether it is good or bad, whether it is moving forward or backward, whether it is facing or thinking about other things with people in another world. But at least one thing is clear: when you go all out for someone, that person will be the most important thing in your life. Of course, for Xu Fan, she no longer cares about anything else. She only hopes that she can learn something about another world, about rest, about the future from that injured person. She doesn't need to think too much or have too much communication.

He only needed to have a simple conversation with her, so at this moment he clearly understood that the scenery outside the window was so beautiful, and everything outside seemed out of place with her. But even so, what could he do? He didn't think about these things; he was only thinking about how to meet her in the future, how to get her to share the knowledge he possessed. Of course, he didn't really think about these things, nor did he overthink them, because everything was already there. Yes, our music system has existed deep within my mind for so long, it has never just existed, or simply existed for so long. In a sense, it helped Xu Fan become the most sought-after musician on the entire internet, and in a sense, it made many unimaginable things successful, like Xu Fan becoming an all-around musician.

Even actors, directors, and other actors in movies all benefit from the system. It's a magical thing, and its magic lies not only in making people braver, but more importantly, in making everyone seriously consider everything it does. So when Xu Fan is thinking about certain things, he can always seriously understand the difference between this world and another. He looks at everything outside the window, as if watching the world outside the window slowly unfold. No matter how we understand and develop the future, it may be completely different from now, so what? At this moment, he feels that this is how things are, so be it.

While Xu Fan was seriously contemplating everything in this world, Xu Fen didn't expect that the entire internet was going crazy. Because at that moment, as October 1st officially arrived, the movie "Once Upon a Time" was showing nationwide, with a staggering 85% of screenings – the highest number ever. This was because Xu Fan and his entire creative team had come to the Zhonghai Yinping cinema for a preview screening. This event not only proved the film's strengths and its phenomenal word-of-mouth, but also, in a sense, demonstrated the considerable effort and dedication of the entire cast and crew in promoting it. It's worth noting that Xu Fan, Xu Shan, and even Leng Xiaogu are all truly influential figures in the entertainment industry, not to mention others.

For true superstars like Andy Lau and Xu Fan, who stand at the pinnacle of the entertainment industry, their participation is never just a simple involvement; it truly drives the entire market. During the National Day holiday, there were many excellent films, but it must be acknowledged that this film is beyond criticism. In fact, when Xu Fan's film was released after its preview screenings, it truly defeated everyone else. Its potential meant that the film had reached its zenith. A very strong competitor, seeing this, chose to withdraw its release. Simply put, after witnessing the excellence of Xu Fan's film, they felt compelled to improve their own. This wasn't out of inferiority, but rather a reluctance to compete with such an excellent film. Because in any competition, there will always be winners and losers. This long-term competition made them clearly understand that Xu Fan's film would not simply be lost.

Or, in a sense, they all knew very well that if they had done the film at another time, their box office would definitely have been the top one. However, after the release of "The Thirty-Third Love: Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms," they lost all their advantage. That's why this situation occurred. So, without any other thoughts, they launched a nationwide promotion campaign immediately after the film's release. Moreover, Tang Chi Leng Xiaogu, Xu Shan, and others continued to travel all over the country for a period of time. In each place, they carried out special promotions, and each place had its own characteristics. Xiaogu, Xu Shan, and even others divided the work, with each person visiting several cities and several hospitals in each city. They all had their own ideas and their own methods. He had to admit that their approach did indeed bring some special advantages, such as some difficulties in filming at cinemas, or some discounts and strong support for screenings. So this time...

When Xu Fan's film *Once Upon a Time* was released, it truly sparked a nationwide frenzy, leaving countless people stunned. Upon entering the theater and seeing Xu Fan, the first impression was one of awe and wonder. The visuals and special effects were truly breathtaking. The plot, seemingly simple and uninteresting, held a profound meaning. Many viewers only discovered its significance when they began to reflect on the film. Many were surprised that Xu Fan, after directing realistic films like *Lost and Found* and *Dying to Survive*, could create such an excellent film. This is a phenomenon, or perhaps a long-term, simulated historical work. This phenomenon encompasses many elements, including humans, demons, and other races, demonstrating the amplification of the novel and the power of his imagination. Therefore...

When they saw the movie, they understood that its requirements were not empty words. They clearly understood that for an excellent work to truly gain everyone's support and recognition, its reputation must be impeccable. In a sense, to gain recognition, the quality of the work must be exceptional; at the very least, the film must be outstanding to earn their praise. The fact that it received so much praise and support at this moment demonstrates its uniqueness. Reflecting on this, one can understand the film's underlying message. When we think about it carefully, this film can indeed achieve certain special effects. For example, its commercial success naturally sparked a lot of discussion. Regardless of when the film is released after the initial delay, one thing is certain: at this point, Xu Fan's film is not competing with any other major films or films.

Or rather, there are too many films with advantages to compete with Xu Fan's current film. Because, in a sense, there are only a few truly excellent films, whether they are produced separately or in other days. For example, the reason why they chose to withdraw from the release of an excellent film is not a tactic, but a reasonable way to avoid pitfalls. At the same time, other films are released, and the film company has no other choice, because all the previous publicity must be done at this time. If it doesn't reach 100 million, it could have a huge impact on future box office. Although there is strong resistance to the orderly release of films at this time, at least in terms of purpose, there is a certain amount of box office revenue to be achieved, which will also make other films compete. Of course, Xu Fan's screening share reached 80%, which relatively reduced the number of screenings for other films. However, the various producers never had any problems with this, because in their view, only a film that makes money is a truly meaningful film. Many films can make money and have so many people supporting them.

So, naturally and without hesitation, they chose this value. Under these circumstances, they didn't need to consider other issues. Therefore, the subsequent box office results truly shocked everyone, especially since no one expected such an effect. On the first day of the film's release, the box office directly broke two hundred million, something that had never happened before in history. Simply put, Xu Fan's film grossed over 100 million on its first day of release.

.

After its initial screening, the film grossed over 200 million yuan. Adding the recent preview screenings, the total box office for the film is approaching 210 million yuan on its first day alone. In the days that followed, the daily box office continued to rise, with many people watching the film. More importantly, many people watched it a second or even third time. This demonstrates the film's excellent reputation and quality. Only good word-of-mouth can attract more viewers. For example, only high-quality films can attract those already watching to rewatch. This is a testament to its quality and ability to deliver. In these respects, the film's quality and appeal can truly be described as perfect.

Xu Fan didn't pay much attention to the often unreliable information online. The box office was still strong the next day, although it wasn't as high as the first day, it still broke 200 million. Simply put, the difference between the first and second days wasn't that significant. The most important reason for this wasn't just Xu Fan's promotion of the film, but also the absence of any disputes before or after its release. Under these circumstances, the film naturally attracted a lot of attention. Xu Fan and his associates, including Xu Shan, Xiao Zihan, and others, actively promoted the film during its official release, sharing posts on their WeChat Moments every day, such as where they were going to screenings or other promotional events. This naturally generated widespread attention online, with everyone wanting to know what Xu Fan and his associates were up to, especially since Xiao Gu and Xu Shan were traveling to various locations to promote the film.

So, will Xu Fan also go to other cities? After all, Xu Fan had previously participated in a project at the China Film Studio, and many people were looking forward to his appearance. However, Xu Fan would definitely not appear at this time. After all, the box office is constantly growing, and the Demon City, which is the site of his camp or the box office, has already been recognized. So, what he should do most is to focus on creating more content that is conducive to the development of the box office in the future.

For example, they might do some special promotions or host a live stream; only in this way can they sell standing tickets more effectively and at a higher price.

===Chapter 1056 It won't exceed one hundred meters===

This movie became an absolute sensation, going viral across the internet in an instant. Countless reposts on WeChat Moments and countless messages on Weibo testified to its uniqueness. It truly swept through the entire entertainment industry, and it's safe to say that it wasn't just the entertainment industry, but the entire internet. You could see news about this movie almost everywhere, whether it was about its promotion or the quality of the film itself.

Even regarding some of the characters in this film, or some of the scenes they portrayed, the internet is abuzz with discussion. Everyone is expressing their love for the film in their own way, while also offering various suggestions for improvement to all the actors in the film. For them, this film starring Xu Fan is truly unique. In the past, Xu Fan has never treated a film with such seriousness. Although every film Xu Fan has made before has been excellent, whether it's "I Don't Want to Be Born," "The Worldly," or other films, Xu Fan has always shown a serious and dedicated attitude towards film. This film, a collaboration between the two, is indeed full of different applications, and Xu Fan has abandoned his previous realistic themes, becoming an excellent representative of the fantasy genre.

In the future, or in the foreseeable future, someone will surely have a clear understanding. This is because, for everyone involved, this event is unique, or rather, from a certain perspective, quite unusual. They will be acutely aware that their filmmaking is different from others, and they will understand the potential consequences of filming it. Therefore, they may need to do something special behind the scenes. Whether it's good or bad, they don't need to dwell on it for too long. For them, as long as they seriously consider it, the outcome will be positive. At least for this moment, they understand that the filmmaking has already achieved a certain level of success. In a sense, when the film becomes a hit online, it has already succeeded. Because the main theme or idea of ​​this film is its future promotion and release, in the coming period, they will need to focus more on the reform of their next film or TV series, such as "Joy of Life."

Because this was his favorite novel, and it was uploaded online, becoming the most talked-about novel by countless people. This novel truly achieved a unique success on the entire Qidian website, or even in the entire internet age. More importantly, no one seemed to seriously consider or truly explain this matter. It's hoped that no one has given it much thought or genuine understanding, because for him, regardless of whether this event is good or bad, at least from this moment on, a certain special decision has been made. For Xu Fan, the most important thing is to seriously consider whether anything special might happen behind this event, such as whether the movie could be negotiated normally, whether the movie would achieve good box office results, or whether his future TV series would have high viewership or ratings. Of course, he didn't really worry about any of these things, because he had too much faith in his own abilities and excellent personal skills.

The help from an excellent director like Xu Shan was crucial because he clearly understood that although Xu Shan was merely a partner, or rather, an executor who participated in the film, he had to admit that his achievements were ultimately due to the system. Xu Shan, on the other hand, was a true self-reliant individual. In this respect, Xu Shan was far superior to him. He had never imagined that he would one day be able to work with someone like Xu Shan, because before that, he was just an ordinary college student. Xu Shan, however, was already an excellent actor. Whether it was his role as Zhu Bajie or any other character he had played, every role was profound and unforgettable. Therefore, he clearly understood that although Xu Shan, Liu Tianwang, and Xiao Zihan were now good friends, in a certain sense...

They are his predecessors, they are the guiding lights in his life. Although he has become stronger and stronger with the help of the system, or rather, he has become more excellent by relying on the system, whether in music or film, novels or other aspects, such as poetry or directing, he clearly understands that he is relying on the system. Therefore, his greatest hope and dream has always been to one day write a work that belongs to him alone, without relying on any music.

He doesn't rely on any music studio notifications but on his own personal abilities. He believes that one day he will write such a song, and he also believes that one day his music will be recognized by the majority. He understands very well that no matter how excellent he is now, everything will gradually change in the future.

Be braver

Xu Fan never imagined that he would one day be thinking about these so-called major life events. Perhaps sometimes he would think about some very simple truths, but in a sense, he was the simplest and luckiest person in the world. He may have been very sad and helpless in the past. His mother was seriously ill, and he had not yet completed his studies. There was no path that could truly lead to the end. So at that time, he was filled with despair, especially when his mother entered the ward and there was a possibility that she would not leave him. He felt very, very sad. Under such circumstances, Xu Fan also thought about some other special truths.

Of course, the most important thing is never anything else, because for him, the movie has truly exploded, or rather, it's going to be really good for a while. The upcoming movie will truly succeed in capturing everyone's attention, both domestically and internationally. This movie is the first time it has entered the eyes of the whole world. It's a fantasy film with dazzling production and such unique visuals, truly a classic. Without much thought, he has many more things to do in the coming period, so he's not thinking about whether the movie will be promoted or what its future holds. No matter how high the movie's box office is, he no longer has time to pay attention. Of course, what he needs to pay attention to is that he must go to the hospital to find the person he met in the car accident that day, because he needs to find that person. However, there are other things to do now, such as himself.

It's time to start looking for those who have left, such as Han Zilu, Xiao Zihan, Leng Xiaogu, and Xiao Pu. In fact, Xu Fan didn't think too much about it. Whether it was Xiao Zihan, Leng Xiaogu, or Han Zilu, they were still here.

He had no real intention of leaving this world, nor had he vanished into any particular place. The crucial issue now was that some people around him were nowhere to be found. For example, his beloved girl, Xiao Pu Pu Si Han; Chen Yuan Yuan; Li Xiao Ran—people he had never met before, or had little contact with, or had always been in contact with, or people he deeply loved—were all now nowhere to be seen. He couldn't understand it. Han Zi Lu was also missing. In this situation, Xu Fan was also thinking about what methods he should use to find them. Because in the coming period, a day was very short. Especially after he realized that there was a world of cultivation besides ordinary people, he understood even more clearly the uniqueness of this world. Perhaps he was just one of the ordinary people, perhaps he really was just that simple, without any other thoughts or the ability to have any other thoughts. In this situation, he could only seriously think about those so-called grand principles.

In fact, many things happen differently than expected. Everything is thinking about something special. Xu Fan also wondered if he could become more innocent one day, and if he would meet some special people in the future, such as cultivators, An Lanyue, or other people around him. Sometimes he wondered if the girl he met during the Spring Festival was also a cultivator with a different constitution like An Lanyue. At such times, his mind was very chaotic. Of course, even though his mind was very chaotic, he clearly understood what he needed to do next, or what he needed to find and accomplish in the next period of time, in order to achieve what kind of result. Only at such times could he more seriously create everything.

Any answer is difficult to describe, or any event is difficult to truly understand. All questions allow people to slowly express their thoughts and seriously consider these things. Many things we imagine often do not match what is destined. However, we often need to verify our creations to make these things communicate simply and reach a complete consensus. The completion of anything is never instantaneous. In this situation, Xu Fan understands himself even more clearly. If he wants to find those people, he must search seriously. This does not mean searching everywhere, but rather exploring clues and everything in this world. At this moment, the first method Xu Fan thought of was to go to Rongcheng.

Chengdu is a place I'm very familiar with. Whether it's teahouses or taverns, gardens or anything else you might imagine, you can find them everywhere. People of all ages, young and old, play cards there. It's a very comfortable place. I remember going there more than once, singing songs there, and even some special songs. But the place I'm most familiar with isn't the city itself, nor the song, but the girl—Li Xiaoran. A magical name, etched in my memory. I met Li Xiaoran after the mudslide in Gansu Province. At the time, she was a volunteer teacher. But then, Xu Fan discovered that Li Xiaoran had vanished. This disappearance was utter, a true disappearance. So, in this situation, what methods could Xu Fan use to find her? At that moment, he had no other choice. He knew very well that he had to go to the city, to see the people there, to see everything there, to search for anything he could find.

If he could find any clues about Li Xiaoran, he might be able to come up with some unique insights. Therefore, Xu Fan was truly serious and exceptionally capable at this moment. In a sense, he genuinely wanted to clearly depict everything in this world. He needed to go to Rongcheng to understand the incident, or rather, to understand what had happened to the person in that city before, and why she had suddenly disappeared in such a short time—something that had never happened before. Moreover, Li Xiaoran's disappearance seemed to be completely unnoticed; no one seemed to care or truly consider why she had suddenly vanished. Only Shi Gan, through the system's prompts, realized that many people in this world had left him. Why didn't Xu Fan immediately go to find Xiao Pu? Because he clearly understood that he couldn't find Xiao Pu at this moment. If someone really wanted to catch them…

So, if he wanted to find any clues, he definitely wouldn't seek them from his closest relatives, because they would never leave any trace. Only through Li Xiaoran could he perhaps find even the slightest clue. So, when May Day arrived, the movie business was still booming, but Xu Fan boarded a plane to Chengdu alone. He clearly understood that only by venturing deep into that world alone could he find all sorts of information. He believed he had that ability, and he also believed he had that time and strength.

Of course, going alone doesn't really affect the signing, because his three bodyguards will definitely be in an unfamiliar place, or behind him, following him where he can't see him. More importantly, An Lanyue will definitely not leave his side for more than 100 meters.

(End of this chapter)

===Chapter 1057 Finding Her===

Chengdu has never truly lost its charm. Its charm lies not only in the liveliness and tranquility of its small taverns, nor in the liveliness and tranquility of its teahouses, nor even in the gentle yet straightforward nature of the people in Chengdu, or rather, Chengdu.

What Xu Fan remembers most vividly is never the small taverns of Chengdu, nor the teahouses of Rongcheng. For him, what truly matters is that girl and that ball. The lovely, approachable students—a group of smiling children—were engaged in their intellectual and intellectual learning in Rongcheng, exploring the vast ocean of knowledge. This was a pivotal moment in their lives, and he vividly remembered that scene, that face, and that teacher and group of children. Xu Fan recalls singing songs with these children, such as "Living Like This," which became incredibly popular online. The teacher and the children's voices instantly went viral, and everyone's attention was drawn to Xu Fan, not just to see his songs, but also to see him in person.

They brought us outstanding works that were beyond everyone's imagination. These outstanding works naturally include some of the songs sung by Xu Fan, as well as the songs that Qipan and the children sang together. Every song is memorable, and every song is worth pondering. Because the great truths conveyed in each song, upon careful consideration, are actually quite simple and easy to understand. However, most people have never truly paid attention to them. Precisely because they have not truly paid attention, no one has seriously thought about the essence of this matter, what it is really like, why so many people are thinking about this matter, yet few people have truly discussed it deeply, and there is no answer that can be accepted by more people. When everyone in the world starts to pull this ending, to look for this solution, to find the target like Xiong, no one knows what should be behind this matter.

Or rather, what kind of state or attitude should create the so-called collision between the past and the present that most people in real life cannot understand? What most of us consider to be something that happens early in the morning or late at night is, in a fundamental sense, simply a retelling of what happened. We cannot explore, acknowledge, or understand it. Most of what we know is indescribable. For example, in Chengdu, the people who run every morning are still mostly young, while the elderly are still struggling. As their physical activity gradually deepened, they started dancing simple dances in the square. Although it may only last two or three hours, they still do it every day. They don't just want to exercise their bodies and live better; more importantly, they want to enjoy it.

Chengdu offers a very comfortable lifestyle, unmatched by any other city in the world. It's a place perfect for living and truly surviving, a place worth exploring and getting to know. It has many unique features, such as mahjong. A group of people can sit together and, besides drinking, engage in various recreational activities like playing mahjong, which is just one of the simplest and most common forms of entertainment. In addition to mahjong, there are other comfortable and relaxing activities like playing "two-card mahjong".

Chengdu, this city, has something that attracts countless people. This thing is so appealing that even eating shit can be a delight, because it truly draws everyone in. This thing is, of course, hot pot—a universally loved dish. A few slices of tripe go into the pot, are scooped out after a few seconds, and it's a delicious meal. There's also beef, or rather, anything in the broth takes on a completely different feel and flavor. It's undeniably a true pleasure. So, when Xu Fan returned to Chengdu, or rather, the city of Rongcheng, the first thing he thought of was eating hot pot. However, he knew deep down that this time he wouldn't have the chance to eat hot pot, because he had come to find Li Xiaoran. Li Xiaoran might no longer be in this world, or perhaps he couldn't find her anymore. But what about them?

Or rather, since he had already arrived at the scene, or rather, in Rongcheng, he would absolutely not let any opportunity slip by. He was going to find Li Xiaoran; this was his first goal. And through Li Xiang, he was going to find the girl he loved. Of course, more importantly, perhaps besides Pu Sihan, whether it was Han Zilu or Cheng Yuanyuan, they might also be living together somewhere. Xu Fan couldn't participate in or confirm these things, but all he could do at this moment was to search for this girl without hesitation. Where exactly was this girl? He couldn't think about it; he only remembered that girl, or rather, he only remembered Li Xiaoran with long hair, who really looked very beautiful, like a scholarly young girl reading, studying, and seriously contemplating the myriad aspects of life. Therefore, Xu Fan really wanted to know what Li Xiaoran had experienced when she passed away, or rather, when she left this world.

So when he arrived in Chengdu, the first thing he did without hesitation was to go to the school where Li Xiaoran had once taught. This was the school where he taught, and it was also the place he had always longed for. After taking the postgraduate entrance examination, he had been teaching at this school. So when he truly disappeared from this world, everyone was thinking and wondering where he had gone. No one knew where he had gone or why he had suddenly disappeared. His students didn't know, and neither did his former teachers. They didn't know where Li Xiaoran had gone, so naturally they didn't know why he had suddenly disappeared. Since the answer couldn't be given to Xu Fan, he had to find the answer himself. Only by finding the most important result could he know something special, or rather, only by finding some clues could he know the final result.

On the rural roads, everyone seemed busy after eating, yet upon closer inspection, it felt like a day off. People walked hand-in-hand along the main road, each with an important matter to attend to. Everyone was stylish yet gentle. This city was truly full of character and uniqueness, but at this moment, there was no time to appreciate these so-called cultural processes or the city's beautiful scenery. In his heart, his most important purpose was, of course, what he needed. Regarding the clues about Li Xiangri's phone, when he arrived at Li Xiaoran's school, it was already past 5 PM, the school's large market day. When student Xu Fan entered, he was stopped by security. The security guard stared at Xu Fan as if he had seen something astonishing, his mouth agape before finally falling silent. It was just Xu Fan, wearing a baseball cap and a mask; the security guard clearly didn't recognize him.

His eyes filled with anger, or rather, tension. He was uneasy about the person wearing a baseball cap and a mask; after all, this was a school, and the security guard's job was extremely dangerous. He felt a sense of impending danger as he watched Xu Fan. When Xu Fan approached, the guard asked, "Hello, I'd like to inquire if there's a teacher named Li Xiaoran at this school. I'm her friend, and I'd like to know where she is now."

To be honest, Li Xiaoran had been missing for two days, but for Xu Fan, he never expected her to disappear. If it weren't for the system's technology, he wouldn't have known she was gone. So, in these two days, nobody knew what Xu Fan was up to, not even the teachers and security guards at the school. Upon hearing Xu Fan's words, Xu Fan paused slightly, then looked at him and said, "So you're a friend of Teacher Li Xiaoran. Since you're busy this afternoon, I'll call Teacher Li Xiang right away; she might come pick you up."

Hearing the security guard's words, Weiweilong was surprised. He hadn't expected that Li Xiaoran would come back to pick him up, but deep down, his power had been enhanced by the system, meaning he was no longer in this world or had already left. So why was the other party still guarding him? He was conflicted for a moment, but didn't think too much about it. Whether he could find Li Xiaoran or not, at least this might be an opportunity. So he nodded and thanked the security guard. The security guard looked at Xu Fan carefully again, and after confirming that Xu Fan posed no danger, he walked into the security room and dialed a number. However, the phone rang several times without being answered. The security guard hesitated and looked at Xu Fan apologetically, saying, "Please wait a moment." He dialed again, because Teacher Li Xiaoran hadn't answered the phone. Xu Fan didn't speak or make any move, just nodded. The security guard dialed again, and the phone rang again.

After several attempts, the call was hung up again, proving that the Li family hadn't answered. The security guard was puzzled and confused. Why hadn't they answered the phone all day? Of course, there might be other reasons, but the guard didn't think much of it. He rarely received calls from people looking for Li Xiaoran, so he seldom called her. All the phone numbers he had were just left at the security office by the school. Ma Yu seemed to have called Li Xiaoran's dean of students or other school leaders, asking them to inform Li Xiaoran to come to the school gate to meet her friend. However, when he gave the phone to the school leaders, they discussed it briefly and then asked the security guard where the person coming was and why they were looking for Li Xiaoran. They had noticed something was wrong with Li Xiaoran, or rather, they had discovered that she had disappeared, which puzzled them.

All the donations collected from the school couldn't find any trace or record of Li Xiaoran's departure. She had indeed vanished. She had just arrived yesterday, was in class yesterday, but was nowhere to be found today. She hadn't even left the classroom last night; it was as if she had simply disappeared into thin air. This situation was so perplexing that everyone, including the teachers, was hesitant to act, and the fact that it happened was too unbelievable. Although the teachers were currently maintaining a secrecy, everyone knew that this matter would inevitably become known to many people online, or even very soon. However, they hadn't expected someone to suddenly come looking for Li Xiaoran. Was there some problem, some strange connection, or why would Li Xiaoran's friend come looking for her after she disappeared? From any angle, this whole situation seemed rather odd.

A strange startled everyone. Although Li Xiang'ai knew he had parents and family, he had rarely interacted with anyone else since coming to this school, neither friends nor family. No one had ever looked for him in all this time, yet suddenly someone was looking for him. At this moment, Li Xiaoran had vanished. All the teachers were shocked and confused. They wondered what the security guard was doing, but he didn't know what to do. So they passed the question to the leadership. After considering changes and consulting with all the teachers, the leadership made a decision. Today, Xu Fan, while slightly agitated by the security guard, felt something was amiss, but couldn't pinpoint what it was. He looked around again and said to Xu Fan, "Teacher Li Xiaoran has disappeared, but the school leadership invites you in, hoping you can return."

Xu Fan had no objections after hearing the security guard's words, because he knew very well that Li Xiaoran was no longer at school. The system would never lie, so being summoned by a school teacher meant that the teacher might know something. At this moment, he naturally prepared to enter the school without hesitation. He nodded to the teacher or the security guard to express his gratitude, and then stepped into the school. He didn't know what would happen next, but he knew very well that he might find some clues or leads. He hoped that these clues would help him find Li Xiaoran and also find Xiao Pu.

===Chapter 1058 Xu Fan Falls into Deep Thoughts===

If before this, Xu Fan knew Li Xiaoran as a well-mannered and knowledgeable young girl, then through his interactions with the teachers, he now knew her as a serious and responsible teacher.

Of course, these two possibilities can actually be combined in one person; whether it is being knowledgeable and reasonable or being conscientious and responsible, they are both present in them.

Li Xiaoran's public persona has always been so agreeable, but now it's suddenly revealed that she also has a different identity. This isn't just about her identity, but also about her character. She was originally the girl in the implementation plan, but now she's a teacher, a responsible and meticulous educator. However, not long ago, she suddenly disappeared. When the teachers discovered this, they reported it to the principal, who, along with everyone else, confirmed Li Xiaoran's disappearance. They immediately called the police, but the police had absolutely no clue. Whether they checked the security camera footage or other aspects of the investigation, Li Xiaoran simply vanished into thin air. Such a disappearance is difficult to determine using modern physics, making the whole matter even more perplexing. Therefore, when Xu Fan appeared to search for Li Xiaoran, the entire fire department was shaken, because for them, Li Xiaoran had been missing for a long time.

Or rather, Li Xiaoran's disappearance was only for a day, but for many teachers, that day was unbearable, undeniable, and unbelievable. Even though they had never imagined what the collision between reality and unreality would lead to, at least from their previous perspective, her disappearance seemed out of nowhere. Before this, no relatives, friends, or family members of Li Xiaoran had ever come to see her, but today a young man suddenly appeared. When the principal saw this young man, his first thought was one of surprise and awe, because he suddenly realized that he knew this person. After all, Xu Fan's personal abilities were very strong, and the principal, as a principal with genuine literary knowledge, was very familiar with Xu Fan's work, The Old Man and the Sea. He had read it countless times, but he could at least be considered a senior fan of Xu Fan's The Old Man and the Sea. So when he saw Xu Fan, he was shocked. After all, at this moment on the internet, no one was unaware of Xu Fan, the author of The Old Man and the Sea.

The same Xu Fan who sang "Sorrow" and "Like Me" on the internet and in the entertainment industry is the same person. Everyone knows that Xu Fan's identity is not only that of a director or a novelist, but more accurately, he is a singer. Under such circumstances, the old man was naturally familiar with Xu Fan, so when he saw him, he was extremely surprised. He didn't even step forward, not knowing what to say. After all, Xu Fan was his idol. As an old man, he never thought that he would admire a young person so much. However, everyone else besides the principal felt the same way. Many people were fans of Xu Fan, or knew his songs, books, or even himself. In any sense, when Xu Fan came to this school, the teachers and students were filled with admiration and awe. This feeling made them have a kind of indifferent respect for Xu Fan. Xu Fan didn't think so much, because he only had one ultimate purpose in coming to this school.

The ultimate goal and the final direction of this objective will always be the same: to find Li Xiaoran. Only by finding Li Xiaoran can he find the others, and only by finding the others can he find the girl he loves. In this situation, only he can help Xiao Pu. So when he met the principal and heard the principal trembling as he told the so-called story about Li Xiaoran's death, Xu Fan asked...

"I don't know anything about the history between Xu Li Xiaoran and you before this, nor do I know what happened to Li Xiaoran at this school. I never imagined that this would happen so shockingly. I'm here today mainly to find Li Xiaoran. I want to ask if you saw her before this, or before she left or disappeared, or if you had any information about her, or noticed anything unusual about her emotions or state of mind."

Regarding this question, Li Xiaoran's roommate, or rather, a volunteer teacher like Li Xiaoran, stood up to visit the school. He was Li Xiaoran's roommate and also a teacher at the school. Of course, he was also a fan of Xu Fan, and most importantly, he was a fan of Xu Fan's songs from the very beginning. So, when he looked at Xu Fan, he was actually quite serious inside. He suddenly realized that Li Xiaoran and Xu Fan had known each other for a long time, and were even from the same hometown, with a very good relationship. If it wasn't a relationship, why would Li Xiaoran personally come to the school shortly after Li Qiangren disappeared? This seemed completely unbelievable to him. He even suspected that there was some special relationship between Li Xiaoran and Xu Fan, perhaps even love, or perhaps they were a couple. And then suddenly they had a fight, and Li Xiaoran seemed to disappear completely, so he went to look for her. These thoughts kept changing in his mind, but when he seriously considered the situation, he felt differently. Therefore, when faced with Xu Fan's question, he didn't say anything to Xu Fan.

"Hello Fan Ge, first of all, let me introduce myself. I'm Li Xiaoran's roommate, and also a big fan of yours. Regarding what you said, I really feel guilty about it too. But what I want to say is that before this, during all my interactions with Xiaoran, I didn't notice anything unusual, nor did I notice any changes in her state or emotions. In other words, before Xiaoran disappeared, there was nothing wrong between them. I had a lot of contact with him; in fact, before the last time I saw Xiaoran, we prepared lessons together and went to the classroom together. After that, I didn't see him after class. At the time, I thought Xiaoran had just left the school or gone somewhere, but I never dreamed that that departure was the real reason he really left, or that he really disappeared."

The words of the female teacher, or perhaps Xu Fan's fan, indirectly confirmed one thing: all of Xu Fan's worries had come true. The situation regarding his senior brother, Xiao, was uncertain and completely sudden. He couldn't find any answers, solutions, or ideas. He knew that all the questions from everyone present were essentially meaningless. Therefore, his trip to Rongcheng was, in a sense, a waste of time. He knew that staying at the school was pointless; he had no way to contact Li Xiaoran, who had disappeared. So he stood up and said goodbye to the principal and the leaders around him. He knew he still needed to do other things, such as searching for other places, or finding Han Zilu's hometown or Li Xiaoran's hometown, and having a brief conversation with Li Xiaoran's parents to confirm the truth of the matter.
