On a warm winter afternoon, Su Yang yawned and strolled leisurely in the sunshine. As a sophomore, nothing was more peaceful than basking in the sun on a weekend afternoon.

"If only life could be as peaceful as this afternoon," Su Yang sighed contentedly, humming a little tune as he walked into a small park.

As Su Yang strolled along, he noticed something faintly shimmering on the road ahead. Approaching, he realized it was a metal bracelet, left behind by someone. Upon closer inspection, he saw unknown symbols engraved on the bracelet, and subtle stripes radiating a purple glow. Su Yang bent down to pick it up, but suddenly sensed something watching him from the nearby bushes. He quickly stood up and looked around, but found nothing.

"Could someone have deliberately left this here to scam me after I pick it up?" Su Yang thought to himself, then stepped over the bracelet and walked forward. "Better safe than sorry, whatever it is," he thought. But just as he rounded a corner of the park path, a bracelet suddenly appeared in front of him. Su Yang immediately stopped and examined the bracelet, finding that the symbols and stripes were exactly the same as the one he had just seen. He immediately turned around and walked back around the corner. From a distance, the original bracelet was nowhere to be seen. Su Yang was certain that the two bracelets were actually the same one. At the same time, he felt a little scared, and even more angry. "Someone really is targeting me and trying to scam me!"

Adhering to the principle of "out of sight, out of mind," Su Yang composed himself and strode forward again, this time at a faster pace. As he walked briskly, the grass beside the road suddenly rustled, sending a chill down Su Yang's spine. However, he pretended to be calm and ignored it, continuing to walk forward.

After walking a few steps, a purple light suddenly appeared ahead. The deep purple light stood upright in the middle of the path like a crack about to be torn apart. Not far in front of it, a strange bracelet was floating in mid-air, slowly rotating, clearly telling Su Yang, "You have no way to avoid it now."

Su Yang turned to leave, but was shocked to find a wall blocking his path. "Sigh," he sighed, then dashed to the right. He remembered the path was lined with bushes, but they weren't tall; at 1.8 meters, he could easily cross them. However, after stepping over the bushes and regaining his footing, the floating bracelet and the deep purple spatial rift were still there. Unwilling to give up, Su Yang turned back and tried again, but the situation remained unchanged. "Fine, what's done is done. I'll just wait and see," he thought, and stood still, waiting for things to change.

The wall behind him seemed to move towards Su Yang as if it had a mind of its own, forcefully pushing him in front of the bracelet. Upon sensing Su Yang, the bracelet emitted a slight purple light, and then automatically disintegrated. The purple light connected the various parts in a ring, moving horizontally in front of Su Yang. Su Yang extended his hand, and the bracelet flew down to his wrist. As the purple light gradually shrank, the bracelet began to reassemble, quickly returning to its original shape, only now fitting Su Yang's wrist better. Once the bracelet had reassembled, Su Yang felt a strange sensation, as if... The connection and perception between himself and the bracelet were different now. It was hard to describe the feeling; it was as if the bracelet wasn't an inanimate object, but had its own life. Before Su Yang could fully comprehend it, the wall behind him seemed to be pushing him closer to the purple spatial rift. Su Yang had no choice but to walk towards the rift. As the distance continued to shrink, he gradually heard chanting in his ears, like a ritual or a kind of entrustment. With everything going black, Su Yang completely disappeared into the rift, and his consciousness gradually dissipated until he fainted.

With Su Yang gone, everything around returned to normal. The warm sun shone on the path, a gentle breeze rustled through the nameless wildflowers, and peace permeated the world.
